Guardian Of The End

Chapter 249 Storm Chaos!

"It should be starting soon…" Risa murmured while overseeing the fields around Duphia.

Though they were still covered with barriers, Risa knew they were going to be the perfect spot for everyone to battle.

"All of the teleportation spells directly aimed inside the town will make the people appear here. Unfortunately, they can still teleport outside the town and chip at the barrier from there." Issac sighed after repeating the words told to him by Amon.

"I will take care of those around the other edges of the town. Can you manage all those appearing on this side?" Karna asked.

The shepherd was currently standing in his young form and was radiating a brilliant golden aura. He seemed like a second son on ground when compared to the one above head.

"We can do that. From what I have gotten to know, the army should head out in an hour. I also received information that they will be using a special tactic to avoid the traps we have set up." Zilan explained from the side.

"He didn't tell you the exact things you are supposed to do?" Brian questioned.

"Remember that this informant is trying to play both sides for the time being so it would be hard for him to tell us about all the details without giving up the element of surprise the other side has." Numok reminded.

"Its a wonder all of us can have this conversation without blowing up." Matt commented.

Currently, the strongest people inside Duphia were all gathered near the fields. Jason and the others were directly exploring the fields while the adults were observing it from a far away location.

"Maybe its due to the fact that all of us are fighting for the same cause again." Zara suddenly said as she appeared behind the group.

Since the last time she had made a public appearance, many things had changed about her.

For starters, Zara had cut her hair down to her shoulders and also carried a whip which was attached to her belt.

It was easy to tell that the whip was an important weapon due to how many runes were etched on its handle. It also had a very detailed designed and was perfectly handmade for Zara.

"Are preparations done?" Issac asked.

"Yes. I have left Kalie in charge of handling the portals when the army appears. The instant they get here, we will also send our people in small numbers." Zara reassured.

"I hope that she can handle it well…" Matt murmured yet his voice was still heard by Brian.

"Have some faith in your wife." Brian replied while clapping Matt on the back.

The latter's jaw twitched and soon enough all of the adults were laughing like young teenagers again.

"Sometimes I wonder whether the adults are children as well." Wade, who was watching this scene with the rest of his friends, commented.

"It's good that they are like this. They have experienced many things throughout their lives yet they can still act like this around each other." Jason smiled.

He was sitting on the ground beside Amber with his hand entwined with hers. Andrew and Nora stared at them from time to time, wondering whether their assumptions were correct.

"I wonder whether I will be able to do this in the future." Zeke wondered

"I know for sure that I won't be able to do something like this." Orion commented. "I don't think I will even remain with you all."

"Why?" Amber raised an eyebrow.

"All of you are trouble magnets. No matter what happens, you guys are always at the center of it in one way or the other. If I remain with you, my life is going to be one heck of a chaotic mess which I personally don't want to experience."

"Nobody wants to experience that but life isn't fun without them." Wade pointed out. "Even I have learned that much."

"Yeah, yeah, whatever. Not like I have seen the future." Orion sighed.

Jason was about to say something when he suddenly paused.

[ Host, they are coming! ] The system warned.

Without saying anything, Jason immediately stood up and activated his thunder. The others got ready as well since they had learned to trust Jason's instincts.

Seconds later, Risa and the adults sensed the powerful emissions released by a massive teleportation spell.

"Why the hell is he bringing more than five hundred thousand people at once?! I thought he was going to clear the traps first." Risa cursed while the adults moved towards their respective spots.

Things took an unexpected turn when a giant blue magic circle appeared on the surface of the fields.

Jason and his group were already away from the circle and were staring at it from the sky. They were ready to attack the first batch of the army the moment they would appear.

"Relax kids, we aren't going to kill you so there is no need to be so tense." A laid back voice echoed around the place.

Suddenly, a blond haired girl wearing casual everyday clothes appeared inside the magic circle.

"The first princess…" Zilan commented from his location before sharing the information with everyone else.

[ Her name is Briana Vancouver and she is the first princess of the kingdom. She is also one of the ten supreme commanders which means that Julian is planning a frontal assault from the get go. ]

[ Do you know what elements she has and how powerful she is? ] Risa questioned.

[ She has the dark element with a S grade affinity alongside the earth element with a S grade affinity as well. Her patron is a goddess of nature whose exact name is unknown. Her strength is around Diamond(SSS) rank at the very least. ]

(AN: Quick recap. The level and strength of a person is determined by the affinity and the number of high tier skills/spells they have. The ranks in ascending order are:

Practitioners = F rank, Bronze = D rank, Silver = C rank, Gold = B rank, Ruby = A rank, Sapphire = S rank, Emerald = SS rank, Diamond = SSS rank, Black = Myriad.)

Once everyone had gotten the basic info on Briana, they were ready to fight the first princess.

However, another two prominent personalities appeared right beside Briana.

The first person was Albus Jokovic, the principal of the royal Vancouver academy. The second was a blond hair man wearing prestigious battle robes etched with runes.

[ Gale Vancouver. He only has the water element but it has a S grade affinity. His patron is called Bunzi and she is a goddess of water and seas. He can be pretty dangerous if he calls upon the power of his divinity. His rank is Diamond as well. ]

With the new information from Zilan, all of them were wondering what they could do. Albus was definitely strong as well which meant that the youngster team couldn't defeat the three opponents alone.

The question was who would be the one helping them at that moment?

[ Matt and Ray, both of you will be helping them. ] Risa ordered as her strategic mind started working. [ Neither Albus nor Gale are members of the supreme commanders which means that more powerhouses are yet to show up. ]

[ Indeed. Though Gale is formidable and strong, he is too reliant on his powers of divinity while Albus is way past his prime. The real threat is Briana. ] Zilan agreed.

He locked eyes with both the prince and princess of the kingdom. Both of them were his direct family members yet they were standing on the opposite side.

Zilan hated to say it but he knew that both Briana and Gale were working with Julian on the their own accords.

Albus might have been working under the influence of a contract but Zilan knew that the principal wanted to save his own skin.

He wasn't ready to risk his future on the small possibility that Julian would be defeated. That was why he was directly fighting instead of supporting the other side.

"Hello, uncle Zilan," Briana suddenly greeted. "How does it feel to be a traitor?"

"I am not sure how it feels but I am fine with being here. You made your choice and I made mine." Zilan replied firmly and decided to not reply to anything else Briana would say.

"You always were like that. I wished you chose more for a wealthy and comfortable life than feeling negative about the things that were going wrong around you." Gale sighed and raised his hands high.

Zilan's eyes widened when he realized what Gale was about to do.

[ Amber, quickly use your magma element to generate enough heat to vaporise water! Zeke, be prepared to freeze a large amount of water! ] Zilan immediately commanded.

"Through the smoothest of seas and wildest of oceans, water has killed many. I call upon the wrath of water to show its power here on land." Gale chanted the words for his spell. "Storm Chaos!"

Suddenly, an orb of water shot out from his palm and hovered above the area.

In the blink of an eye, a tsunami erupted from the orb, encompassing the entirety of the town with its powerful wave
