Guardian Of The End

[ Try to keep your mind calm. ] Hestia suggested. [ So much power as once can sometimes overload your brain and give you a huge amount of adrenaline. ]

Seconds after she had said those words, divine energy started traveling through Jason's veins. He could have done this by using Sancus's divinity as well, but the effect would have been different.

Hestia's divine energy was much weaker in comparison due to her being a pseudo-god like being. But the fact that she also had the thunder element as one of her major attacks provided Jason with much stronger attack power.

'Here we go.' Jason closed his eyes and used a majority of the divine energy to charge up his white thunder.

His movements were no longer a blur since he had completely vanished from sight. The green thunder arrows went right past his body yet none of them were able to hit him.

Jason clasped his hands together and used the remainder of divine energy to create a dark mana sword.

The blade was two feet long and had a dark glow around its tip, where most of the divine energy had been concentrated.

[ Aim for the throat. ]

'Wouldn't it be messy?'

[ Who cares about that? It's the most effective way to win this fight right now. ]

Jason did as told and appeared beside the green thunder clone. The latter had created a bubble of thunder similar to his bubble of darkness to prevent ranged attacks from hitting.

However, the bubble popper the very second it was hit with the tip of Jason's sword. The divine energy easily cut through the thunder and pierced through the clone's throat.

Jason pushed the sword half-way in before pulling it out swiftly. He knew that the other clone would soon be charged as well so he decided to directly attack him as well.

"No, you can't do that. Stay put or I will freeze you until he has leveled up." The voice of the ring interrupted.

Jason was forced to stop due to the voice or else he would be frozen on the spot. Even though no harm would be caused to him, he would lose time to set up a trap.

'A hole again? No, he might be able to get himself out this time due to upgraded level of thunder. It will provide him at least some sort of speed increase.'

Jason's brainstormed to find a way to trap the first clone. The green thunder clone had already turned to a cube and was sinking below the ground.

He had to come up with a plan quickly because the first clone was also being upgraded to the next level.

'Think, Jason, think. What kind of trap can you use to win this fight?'

[ Do you really need to set up a trap to win this fight? ]

'I don't see any other way to beat that guy. His armor can't likely be broken through so I can't hit him directly. I don't have any mental attacks like Risa does and neither can I control the thunder on his body like Issac.'

[ You can defeat him easily if you agree to play dirty. ]

'Hmm, I guess I can do that. What's the plan?'

[ You gotta attack his Achilles heel. You do know what that is right? ]

'I do. Achilles was a guy from Greek mythology who was an invincible warrior. He only had one weak spot which was an area around his heel. He was defeated by hitting the area with an arrow if I remember correctly.'

[ Indeed. You gotta find the same area for the clone. Honestly, its quite obvious. ]

'You aren't talking about kicking his balls or something, are you?'

[ Though that's an option, no. You gotta attack his backside cause the armor is the weakest there. You can use your vision ability to confirm this. Anyways, good luck. It seems he is awake and upgraded now. ]

Jason nodded in acknowledgment and stared at the clone. Its body had become a bit buffer and the thunder wrapped around him was even purer.

"You can fight now. Put on a good show for me." The voice giggled.

Jason's hair immediately stood up as the clone threw an anaconda made from thunder at him. Jason sliced at the snake with his sword and watched the two pure manas clashed against each other.

The sword managed to cut the snake in half, yet it suffered some damage as well. This was the indicator that some amount of divine energy was also mixed with the clone's effect.

'If the rings were created by the first ever demon king, he might have used divine energy for their creation. Its kind of obvious now that I think about it.'

If the rings were keeping the cursed power of the sins in check, it was obvious that they contained a much stronger energy inside them.

According to Jason, divine energy was the strongest form of energy so that was what might have been used in the creation of the ring.

'The fk am I thinking in the middle of a fight?!' Jason scolded himself and focused on the clone's backside.

He wasn't thrilled to do it but the circumstances forced him to do so. His eyes immediately caught on to the fact that the mana around the clone's backside was a bit thinner as well as less purer when compared with the rest of the armor.

This proved Hestia's theory to be correct.

Jason sighed and immediately chucked his sword forward. The clone had also released a thunder dragon as it was currently relying on long distance attack.

Jason's eyes allowed him to see that the clone was actually charging most of the energy inside his arms to unleash in one powerful strike.

The other attacks served as distractions to keep Jason busy.

'Too bad I can't swallow them and use them for myself.' Jason sighed as he saw his sword destroying the dragon.

However, the blade had grown a bit dull. The divine energy concentrated in the tip had also worn off a bit.

'This is my chance.'

Jason tuned in to the remainder of his divine energy and immediately headed towards the clone's rear end.

Simultaneously, the clone raised its right hand and threw a bolt of pure thunder. The sword clashed with the bolt and both of them exploded, resulting in a lot of smoke.

The clone however turned back with glowing eyes and its attack ready to be unleashed.

Jason was present right behind him and he too was ready to unleash his attack.

[ The one to hit the attack first wins. ] the system observed. [ Jason, I hope you can do it time…
