Guardian Of The End

'If I ever go wild, will I be doing things similar to this?' Jason questioned.

Currently, multiple fire tornadoes were revolving around Amber while the ground had split itself in multiple pieces. Lava oozed out of the ground and flew towards the tornadoes.

Anyone present on the ground would have instantly been turned into ashes. However, despite this, Risa was standing on the ashen ground.

The area around her feet seemed completely fine despite multiple cracks running all around her. Not even a single drop of lava touched her body.

Risa wasn't bothered by the temperature change either and simply looked at Amber from a distance.

[ I am afraid you might be even worse. You have three divinities, two of which are active. You have the powers of a guardian as well as the thunder and dark elements with high affinities each.

If you ever lost control completely, you will be one of the most dangerous existences around the entire kingdom. Though it will have harsh consequences. ]

'Everything has consequences. Amber is going to face some serious backlash as well, isn't she?'

[ You are correct, she is going to face a lot of backlash. Once she returns to her normal state, she will be in need of medical assistance. Risa will be the one responsible for providing that. ]

Jason and the system silently observed Amber fighting the experts after her. None of their attacks managed to pierce the tornadoes that had surrounded her.

Amber's eyes glowed brighter than ever as a dragon emerged from her body. The dragon was the size of an airplane from Earth except it was completely made of fire.

"They won't win no matter how strong they are…" Risa muttered.

In front of their eyes, the dragon continued to expand before it stretched over the entire lake. With a flick of her hand, Amber guided it towards the water magic experts flying in the air.

Even they had realized that they were facing impending doom and immediately tried to escape using teleportation magic.

"Its useless," Jason said aloud. "The divine energy has already covered them like a second layer. They can't escape now."

His words became true soon enough since none of the experts could get out of the place.

"Formation grandia!" One of them shouted.

All of them shuffled their positions before focusing their mana in a single spot. Their mana combine together and formed a tiny sphere of water.

Jason was surprised to see that so many mana merged together yet none of them were exploding. This showed that all of them had a fine control over their mana.

'System, do you know the outcome?'

[ I do. ]

Jason sighed when he saw the sphere of concentrated water mana shoot towards the dragon. Despite its size, he knew that both attacks had similar power inside them.

The mana was spread in the case of the dragon while it was concentrated in the case of the sphere. The moment both of them came into contact, they exploded, producing a large amount of heat and smoke.

Having experienced many fights, all the experts knew that the battle was far from over. They raised their level of alertness and looked at the surroundings with narrowed eyes.

'The fight is over.' Jason sighed, his eyes focused on Amber who was present in the middle of the smoke cloud.

One by one, the experts suddenly started turning to ashes. Their bodies burned from the inside and before any of them could figure out what was happening, they were dead.

[ When too much divine energy enters the body of a person without a divinity or low level resistance against such an energy, their bodies can't handle the level of power. It results in either death or the creation of an abomination. ] Hestia explained.

Once all of the experts had died down, the smoke cleared away. Amber was still floating in the sky but all the tornadoes around her had died down.

Her eyes had returned to their normal red. Her body seemed to sag down, the divine energy around her slowly vanishing.

On instinct, Jason jumped towards her. He had a feeling that she would be falling from the sky.

His feeling turned out to be correct as Amber's body suddenly started falling towards the ground.

Jason reached her easily, thanks to his thunder speed. He caught her in his arms and dashed back to an area of the ground that was still stable.

"Huh?" Amber looked at Jason with half-closed eyes. "What are you doing here?"

"Saving you from hitting the ground." Jason replied without thinking much. After all, it was kinda what he was doing at the moment.

"I guess I did hear your voice then…" Amber chuckled. "Don't you feel horrified to see this much destruction?"

"I have seen worse." Jason shrugged. "You should be worried about yourself. Using such power does come with a price."

"At least I got rid of those guys. Though if you hadn't warned before, I would have likely been captured inside a mana prison made from concentrated water mana," Amber said in a weak voice. "Thank you for saving me."

"No problem," Jason replied.

He could feel the energy inside Amber slowly fading away. He looked at Risa before walking towards her.

'Wrath is a dangerous thing.' Risa thought with a sigh before kneeling on the ground.

She placed her right hand on the few pieces of the broken land and closed her eyes. Risa knew that the place was symbolic to Amber since it had been  meaningful to Ariana as well.

Risa had visited the same lake with her friend in earlier days.

'I guess we will never get to see this place together again.'

Risa passed a insane amount of her life magic into the ground. She directly connected with the natural ecosystem of the lake and used her life magic to slowly heal the land.

'I didn't know that was possible.' Jason thought with a surprised expression.

In front of his eyes, the ground started healing itself. Droplets of water also started appearing on top of the newly created land.

Risa carefully manipulated her for a few more seconds before getting up from the land. She looked at Amber's unconscious self, checked her conditions quickly and placed her hand on her forehead.

"We have to take her with us." Risa declared a few seconds later. "She is going to require some intensive care if we want to save her."

Jason simply nodded and tightened his grip on Amber's body to make sure that she wouldn't slip.

"Hold on tightly." Risa said before using teleportation magic.

Jason glanced one last time at the entire place just in time to see that the land had mostly reverted to its original form. Half of the lake had also been filled by the water making it seem like no disaster had occurred there.

That was the last thing Jason saw before being pulled away from the place. The trio reappeared right outside the entrance to Duphia and had to walk back to the manor.

Once they reached there, Risa instructed Jason to take Amber to the only guest room available in their house.

"I will have to set up some complicated spells around her to make sure that her life is sustained. Leave her here and go outside." Risa said once Jason had placed Amber on the bed.

He simply nodded and left the room, wondering what could be the most complicated spell that Risa could cast.

[ It would definitely have to be one that either regenerates most of the body or something similar. ]

[ It can also be related to destruction. Technically, magic wasn't designed to have bounds. Its the humans who put limits on it. ]

'I sometimes forget that one of you is a guide connected with a primordial working as a bartender while the other one is an ex-goddess belonging too Olympus.' Jason sighed.

He once again went to the kitchen to catch himself a midnight snack. Once he had obtained his snack, Jason went out of the house and sat near the door.

He eyed the beautiful night sky while zoning out. Despite this, Jason knew when Risa opened the door and came outside.

"Her grandmother didn't survive, did she?" Jason asked after a few minutes.

"No, she didn't. Amber likely found out about that, causing her divinity to take hold of her and use her power." Risa sighed.

"I thought her guardian would have helped her." Jason said to both Risa and Hestia.

[ Under normal circumstances, we can prevent our vessels from harming themselves or getting themselves killed. But when you are high on your emotions and can't control yourself, we can't do anything.

After all, we aren't in a slave contract where we gain complete control over the people we have a bond with. Once Amber lost control, Flamey couldn't have helped her but I'm sure that she did try to talk Amber back into sanity. ] Hestia explained.

Risa said more or less the same thing, excluding the part about Flamey.

"So she wasn't really in her senses," Jason said at last. "This means that once she wakes up, she is going to be hit by a wave of emotions. This is going to be tough…"

AN: The month has come to end and I am surprised to see that I did quite good this month. We crossed 200 golden tickets, stepping into the top 200 GT rankings.

I am also happy to announce that I have received a huge amount of support from you guys. But right now, I am afraid that I can't keep going the way I am.

I feel like the last few chapters haven't been up to the mark and that I am just forcing myself to write.

That is why I am going to write the next few chapters after carefully thinking what I have to do.

This being said, I will try my best to upload chapters on time but if I get late or miss an update, I hope you forgive me.

Happy reading <3
