Guardian Of The End

"That's it. That's the last inch of this space that I haven't checked yet." Jason sighed before crashing to the ground.

He had been scanning every inch of the place ever since he had gotten there yet he still hadn't found a way to exit it.

On the other hand, May had entered a temporary hibernation state to prevent herself from going on a rampage.

Fortunately, time passed differently inside the space or else May might have already destroyed the entire space in one big blast.

'System, do you think I should just call both the guardians and try to fight my way out of here?' Jason asked.

[ You will lose and die but I guess its worth a try. Maybe if they use a portal created through space manipulation, you can jump inside it with May and exit this place. ]

'All right, its worth a shot. If I die like this, I swear I will come back here to haunt these guardians for eternity.'

Jason stood up from his spot and went to pick up May. The demi-god was peacefully sleeping under a tree as strands of divine energy were slowly forming a cocoon around her body.

Jason lifted her off the ground and hugged her to his chest with a grim expression. Her body temperature was steadily rising, and her breathing was becoming uneven.

Jason estimated that her birthday was approaching soon and if he didn't enter the temple by then, May would likely go on a rampage and destroy the entire area, including him.

"I am ready with an answer." Jason said aloud and looked around with attentive eyes.

Unfortunately, no portal appeared anywhere as the two monks materialized right in front of him. 𝒇𝙧𝚎𝐞𝙬𝒆𝑏𝑛𝑜v𝚎𝒍.c𝑜m

Both of them stared at him with expressionless faces, waiting for his reply.

"I have decided that both of us are going out. I don't care about your stupid trial." He said boldly before activating Sancus's divinity.

The moment he did that, some sort of pressure was lifted off his shoulders. It was similar to what happened when his divinity countered Julian's divinity.

"A divinity of the god of oaths," Choros mumbled. "I guess we can't simply crush you both by throwing you out of this space."

"I don't like those with rule breaker abilities. They can fight on their own terms no matter where they are. But then, they have to pay a high price for it." Chronos narrowed his eyes at Jason's chest.

[ Host, your blood flow is increasing with the amount of divine energy you are using. If you use your divinity for more than five minutes, I am afraid that your blood vessels might burst. ]

'But as long as its active, they can't play any dirty trick on me by manipulating the surroundings, right?'

[ No, they can't. Choros can still use his space magic, but he won't be able to push your body out of this plane, which in other terms, means throwing someone out of space into an area of black void.

He can't push your soul out of your body either. Chronos can't make you age suddenly as well so you can battle that as well. Good luck. ]

Once the system had finished its explanation, Jason shot forward. But instead of white thunder, golden sparks of thunder flickered around his body.

His purple eyes momentarily turned golden as divine energy surged through his body. May's protective cocoon prevented her from feeling the sudden powerful charges being emitted by Jason's body.

Choros and Chronos exchanged a silent glance before pushing back the sleeves of their robes. The monks stretched their necks before releasing their elements together.

'Damn…' f𝙧𝒆𝚎𝑤e𝚋𝓷o𝘷𝗲l.c𝐨m

Jason's jaw dropped when he saw Chronos moving at the same speed he was moving at. Not only that but Choros was able to keep track of them by continuously teleporting beside them.

Chronos suddenly flicked his wrists in Jason's direction and stopping. Jason immediately felt his body slow down to the speed of a snail.

Choros appeared right beside him and touched his shoulder, teleporting him inside a volcano.

"FKKKK!"

Jason immediately covered himself with his dark element before shooting upwards. His skin was scorched in multiple areas and his clothes were burning.

However, the pain immediately faded away as his skin was healed. The divine energy from Sancus's divinity was also mixing with his light element and healing him quickly.

"Come on I need more divine energy!" Jason shouted as he shot out from the volcano.

Chronos was waiting for him at the top as a magic circle appeared right above Jason's head. He saw the entire scene of him diving inside the volcano repeating itself as he started falling back into the volcano.

It was as though everything was happening in reverse.

'No, I cannot let this happen…' Jason took a deep breath and closed his eyes. His feet touched the surface of the lava before suddenly stopping.

A frown appeared on Chronos's face as he twisted his hands into a circle. Yet it didn't do anything as Jason remained grounded on his spot.

[ I wonder whether two demi-gods and an ex-goddess have the same level of power. Want to find out? ] Hestia's voice suddenly echoed all around the volcano.

Chronos's body immediately went still as Choros appeared beside him with a shocked expression on his face.

The twins recognized the voice as well as the aura coming out of Jason's body.

The lava surrounding his feet slowly started lifting up. A rumbling sound echoed inside their ears as the volcano started rumbling.

Jason's eyes opened up to reveal a dangerous pair of glowing golden irises. Every single drop of lava present inside the volcano lifted up and formed two wings at his back.

The wings stretched on for meters until the volcano was empty. Golden thunder wrapped around his hair and body, creating an armor of sorts.

A small smile appeared on his lips as the ground started rumbling.

[ Come, Chronos and Choros. Let's see if both of you can beat your aunt after so many years. ]
