The Guardian gods-Chapter 225

"We beseech you, let your storms rage within us. Let your waters shield and empower us. With the roar of the sea in our ears, we stand unyielding against the tide of our foes. Guide our hands as the currents guide the waters. Make our strikes as inevitable as the rising tide."

"With every crash of our weapons, with every roar of our voices, we honor you, Jaws, god of sea and storms. Be our strength, be our fury, and let us claim victory in your name!"

It was subtle, but after Robin’s prayer, the human army felt a tingle of power increasing their strength and courage, which in turn made them begin stomping the ground, mimicking the sound of heavy waves.

Robin, seeing this, smiled as a helmet appeared, covering his head. Using the opportunity, he began speaking again, "Warriors of the Sea, today we face an unexpected storm. But do we fear the tempest? No!"

"The enemy stands before us, thinking they can overpower us, thinking they can drown us in their numbers. But they do not know the strength that surges within our veins. They do not know that we are the tide that cannot be turned!"

"Look to the sky, feel the power of the storm, feel the spirit of Jaws within you. As the waves crash upon the shore, so too shall we crash upon our enemies. Relentless, unstoppable, and full of wrath."

Robin pointed his harpoon at the army of werebeasts. "Attack!!" he roared as he began moving with his horse.

Both armies moved at the same time, clashing as the human army advanced in practiced formation, working together to take out the enemy. Meanwhile, the werebeasts paid no mind to formation; they all just wanted a piece of the enemy in front of them.

The fight took an unexpected turn as the human soldiers found that the enemy they had encircled was somehow becoming much tougher, almost like amateurs facing off against an elite force.

The werebeasts grew stronger with each kill, blessed by Björn’s divinity. Meanwhile, the humans, with the sea god’s divinity, still had momentum on their side, but as the fight progressed, their enemy got stronger while they did not.

Finn, watching the battle from the sky, was very tempted to join the fray as he felt the exceptional increase in strength each soldier gained with each kill.

The only reason Finn could think of was that those killed were blessed by the sea god, so in turn, Björn was easily handing out blessings.

Looking at Yuki beside him, Finn calmed his rushing blood. Even though Yuki had proven herself useful, Finn and Olaf still hadn’t fully trusted her yet. Besides he needs to keep his cool in front of a lady especially one as good looking as Yuki.

"Here it is," he was taken out of his thoughts when he heard Yuki speak. Looking down, a familiar sight appeared in front of him. "We have won," he said with certainty.

Down on the battlefield, a red mist with a distinct scent began spreading. The werebeasts, seeing the mist, got even more excited and began pushing each other aside, even stomping on one another to get more kills.

The humans, seeing the mist, began frowning. They had been informed about something like this happening, so almost on command, their helmets closed in on themselves, protecting them from inhaling the red mist.

Yuki raised a brow at this and frowned; the humans seemed too prepared for them, and she didn’t like that.

The mist, as if it had a mind of its own, ignored the soldiers’ helmets and began seeping in through the openings in their armor. A muffled cry of pain escaped the soldiers’ mouths as they felt their bodies fighting against themselves.

Jaws’ blessing on the soldiers was combating the mist, ensuring it didn’t achieve its effect, but this in turn caused pain to the soldiers as two forces fought within them.

This had a negative effect as the humans found it hard to focus on the opponents in front of them. The werebeasts, seeing the opportunity, took their chances, breaking the formation.

The fight turned from being equal to a one-sided massacre as the werebeasts began slaughtering the human soldiers.

Back at Robin’s manor, a figure in a dark robe could be seen watching the war through a floating mirror. "I still have to interfere. Luckily, that was taken into account, and a shield has been placed around the manor to prevent prying eyes."

The dark figure began floating before sitting cross-legged in the air. Behind the figure, it was almost like the space was torn open, revealing a view of sparkling stars arranged in a distinct shape.

Back on the battlefield, the armor the humans wore began to display the shape of the similar star behind the dark robed figure. The human soldiers’ screams of pain stopped at once.

Almost as if their minds were connected, a new formation was formed as they began taking down the werebeasts. The precision with which the army moved changed. Their physiques were pushed to their limits as they began fighting back, surprising the werebeasts.

The tide of battle began to turn in favor of the humans. Yuki and Finn, who had been certain of their victory, now frowned.

"Interesting," Finn muttered, narrowing his eyes as he observed the battlefield below. The once chaotic scene now seemed more like a chessboard, with each piece moving with uncanny precision. "It appears our enemies have some tricks up their sleeves."

Yuki nodded, her brow furrowed in concentration. "The star pattern... it’s a powerful enchantment. They must have a very strong mage supporting them from afar."

"We need to identify and neutralize that mage," Finn said decisively. "Without their support, the humans will crumble."

"Agreed," Yuki replied, her voice tight with determination. "But locating a hidden mage of that caliber won’t be easy. They must be far from the battlefield and well-protected."

Finn’s eyes glinted with fierce resolve. "Then we’ll flush them out." Saying that, a shockwave drowned by the sound of war on the ground was left behind as Finn began flying around to locate the hidden mage.

As Finn zoomed back and forth across the sky, the human soldiers, now enhanced by the celestial enchantment, fought with renewed vigor. Their movements were almost mechanical, each action perfectly synchronized with those of their comrades. The werebeasts, initially taken aback by this sudden shift, quickly adapted, their primal instincts pushing them to fight with even greater ferocity.

Yuki was also searching for the mage, and her attention was soon drawn to the manor. She noticed a blank spot in her senses, which coincided with the manor’s location.

Pointing at the manor, Yuki said with certainty, "That’s where the mage is." A boom was heard, blowing Yuki’s hair and clothes to the side as a furious Finn appeared beside her, looking at the manor she was pointing at.

His bow appeared in his hand as a feather fell from his body into his clawed hand. The bow grew in size, and so did the feather as he began pulling back the string. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

The light surrounding Finn and Yuki, as if attracted to something, began flowing into the feather. Soon, the feather glowed like a huge rod of light.

A loud sound followed through as the bowstring was released, as the rod of light began descending upon the manor. A magical shield appeared, blocking the huge arrow. Finn’s bird-like eyes glowed as he pointed at the arrow, causing it to break apart and fly to different locations on the shield where a few weakness was found. The shield held for a while, wearing out the arrow’s power before breaking apart.

Seeing the shield break, Yuki smiled eeirly and kicked the air, ready to descend upon the manor. However, she stopped herself as she began sweating.

Finn remained in the same position, frozen and sweating. In their eyes, a very cold gaze was watching them, daring them to make a move. "Retreat," Yuki said immediately as she began flying away.

Finn nodded immediately and followed behind her, letting out a loud bird cry that was heard by those battling below. The werebeasts, on signal, began falling back.

On the same continent, on the colder side, a massive figure could be seen on a huge icy throne, watching the war at the port and the retreating figures of Yuki and Finn.

The star sign on the human soldiers vanished at the same time, and their body fell to the ground like puppets with their strings cut. Their bodies ached and were in pain, so for a while, the only sight on the battlefield was of human soldiers clutching their weapons for support to avoid collapsing.

The dark-robed figure felt the same cold eyes staring at both Yuki and Finn descend upon him. In response, the dark figure smiled wryly and spoke to the open air as if conversing with someone. "It was reckless, but I had to interfere."
