The Guardian gods-Chapter 257

Saga landed gracefully beside Roland, her eyes narrowing as she assessed the situation. "We’ll have to be quick and precise," she said, her voice calm and measured despite the chaos around them. "I can use my wind magic to create openings and disrupt their attacks."

Roland nodded, his lightning crackling around him. "I’ll keep the general occupied. You focus on the boar. If we can separate them, we might have a chance."

With a shared look of determination, the two generals launched into action. Roland charged at the boar and its rider, his sword glowing with electric energy. Saga circled around, her movements a blur as she summoned gusts of wind to disorient the boar.

The boar snorted, its eyes glowing with an eerie light as it teleported again. This time, Saga anticipated the movement and aimed her wind magic to create turbulence, hoping to force the boar to miscalculate its reappearance. However, the boar’s thick hide and unyielding resolve made it shrug off her wind gusts with ease.

The general, riding atop the boar, swung his hammer with brutal force at Saga. Roland seeing that had no choice but to meet him head-on, With a roar, a small gaint replica of Roland appeared behind him with a lightning construct sword to defend against the falling hammer . The impact sent shockwaves through the ground, Roland held his ground but he kenw his limit as he used his speed to pull and tried counterattacking at the boar with a swing of his sword.

The boar, undeterred by pain, teleported to Saga who distanced her self with relentless ferocity. She barely avoided its tusks, which grazed her side and drew blood. Ignoring the searing pain, she used her wind magic to propel herself away, creating some distance.

Roland with lightning speed moved over to the boar was locked in a deadly dance with the general. His gainat lightning construct holding it’s own against the gaint. The constuct enabled Roland avoiding using his own body to defend against the blow still the general’s immense strength made every swing of his hammer a potential death blow. Roland noticed another problematic thing about the giant as his lightning-infused strikes broke through the gaint armor but barely scratched the general’s thick skin, which seemed impervious to conventional attacks.

Saga, meanwhile, was trying to outmaneuver the boar. Its teleportation ability made it nearly impossible to predict, and its thick hide resisted even her most powerful wind blades. The boar teleported behind her again, its tusks aimed at her back.

Reacting with lightning speed, Roland intercepted the boar, his blade slashing through its side. The boar squealed, its blood spraying across the battlefield. The general seized the opportunity this time not aiming at Sagan as his hammer came crashing down towards Roland.

Roland barely dodged, the hammer grazing his shoulder and sending a shock of pain through his body. He gritted his teeth, lightning flaring around him as he retaliated with a furious barrage of strikes. The general’s armor dented and cracked under the assault, but the general himself seemed unfazed, his thick skin absorbing most of the damage.

The general, roaring in fury, swung his hammer in a wide arc, catching Roland off guard and sending him sprawling to the ground. Roland coughed up blood, struggling to rise as the general loomed over him, ready to deliver a killing blow.

Saga, seeing Roland in dire straits, summoned a powerful gust of wind that barely knocked the general and boar off balance. She darted in, slashing at the boar to keep it at bay while Roland regained his footing. The boar’s eyes glowed with malevolent fury as it teleported again, this time reappearing right in front of Saga and ramming her with its tusks.

Saga cried out in pain, blood pouring from the deep wounds in her abdomen. She staggered but managed to stay on her feet, her wind magic swirling around her like a protective barrier. The boar, relentless and unyielding, charged again, its eyes filled with a savage determination.

Roland, seeing Saga’s predicament, forced himself to his feet despite the pain. Pointing at the clear sky which began cloudy out of nowhere, Lightning fell from the sky striking him as he pointed his sword at the boar unleashing a massive bolt of lightning at the boar. The bolt struck true, sending the creature reeling and giving Saga a brief respite.

"Now, Saga!" Roland shouted, his voice hoarse but with a better vigor as the lightning that struck him with the help of his technique boosted his healing a bit.

Saga nodded, her eyes blazing with resolve. She focused her wind magic, creating a powerful cyclone that enveloped the boar and the general. The winds howled, lifting the massive creatures off the ground and disorienting them.

The general, sensing the danger, leaped from the boar’s back and landed heavily on the ground. With the rider’s weight removed, the boar struggled against the cyclone, its teleportation erratic and less controlled. It reappeared a few feet away, tumbling to the ground with a dazed look in its eyes.

The general, now on foot, roared in fury and charged at Roland with renewed vigor. Roland met him head-on, their weapons clashing in a deadly dance of lightning and brute force. Each swing of the general’s hammer created shockwaves, while Roland’s lightning construct continued to aid him in deflecting the powerful blows.

Saga, now focused entirely on the boar, saw it struggling to rise. She intensified her wind magic, creating sharp blades of air that sliced at the creature’s hide. The boar, despite its resilience, was beginning to falter under the relentless assault. It teleported again, but this time, its movements were sluggish and imprecise.

As the boar reappeared, Saga unleashed a concentrated blast of wind, sending it crashing into a nearby boulder.

Pulling off the same tactic, she summoned a cyclone that fully raised the dizzy boar to the sky, with a loud clap the cyclone was dispersed as the Boar came falling down from the sky.

The impact was loud and severe, and the boar let out a final, pained squeal before collapsing, unable to continue the fight.

Roland and the general were locked in a fierce struggle. The general, without his mount, was more agile but also more exposed. Roland seized the opportunity, using his lightning speed to dodge a heavy swing and counter with a powerful thrust. His blade, infused with lightning, pierced the general’s thick skin at a weak spot near the shoulder.

The general howled in fury, dropping his hammer as the electric shock coursed through his body. Saga saw this as her chance. She leapt forward, wind magic swirling around her, aiming to finish the general.

The general had a cunning look flash in its eyes unfazed by pain and shock of the lightning moved with terrifying speed. His massive hand shot out, grabbing Saga’s face in a crushing grip. Roland the moment, saga was caught panicked as he tried pulling out his sword but the general flexed its hard muscle holding the sword in place. Erik seeing that had no choice but to pump more lightning into the giant body.

Saga’s eyes widened in shock and horror as the general squeezed, the pressure increasing until her skull could no longer withstand it. With a sickening pop, Saga’s head burst, blood and fragments of bone spraying in all directions.

Roland screamed in rage and anguish, his vision turning red. The lightning around him intensified, crackling with uncontrolled power. But the general who Erik was angry at was already dead as the lightning cooked it from the inside.

It’s one goal was to kill Saga, Roland dropped to his knees beside Saga’s lifeless body, tears streaming down his face. The battlefield was still going but for him at the moment it was silent, the cost of their victory weighing heavily on him. He knew that they had won this battle, but the price had been far too high.

As he cradled Saga’s broken form, Roland vowed to continue the fight in her honor. Erik who has been paying attention the whole time stood with widened eyes as he was taken back by the result.

The giant general’s last push while admirable should not have killed Saga with the amount of Lightning Roland was pouring inside of him after Saga was caught.

Looking at Silas and seeing him smirk, Erik knew he did something. The ground beneath Erik dented as he took to the sky as she roared out loud "Silas!!!"

Silas smirked seeing Erik angry, shaking his hand, the horse snorted as red flames left its mouth as it began sprinting towards Erik.

The horse feet soon left the ground as it began sprinting towards the sky to meet Erik halfway. Before both clashed, The figure of Edward and the flying female general can be seen falling from the sky with both throwing punches at each other.

Erik frowned seeing that, almost like Silas could read his mind, the horse direction changed as Silas led his horse toward Edward. Erik losing his momentum fell from the sky but not before throwing his spear at Silas.
