The dark guardian

JAMES

I was in a kind of labyrinth creating in the same room, I was running away from that guy, I was completely crazy, he was fighting not only to prove himself more strong but also wanted to enjoy a hunt. I came to a corridor and people appeared to me , they attacked me and I could defend myself with cost, I kept running and reappeared later, it was as if it had multiplied, but meanwhile I was trying to devise something to hurt it, it It made it hard to think under pressure, if only I was in a place where I can think well it would be different, but this guy shows up everywhere I go. In addition to acting like a madman, perhaps in a fight he lost part of his brain.

—Wow, it seems your strategy is to run away from me like a child—he laughed mockingly—but that 's fine, if you think you'll escape from me, I accept it, I agree to play this game of yours—he cast an explosion spell at my feet that made me jump to avoid the contact—yes... that's how I like it, I'll make you dance for a while—began casting those spells over and over again so that I started jumping and jumping as if I was dancing.

Damn, this can't be possible, I don't have to keep running away from this maniac—I stopped short, a portal immediately formed in front of me, leaving this guy—I'm not used to being the victim , I'm not characterized by Being the one running away, I'm starting to get tired of this situation.

—it's too much, I won't keep looking for you anymore—he attacked trying to hit with his first movement which I could stop him—come on, stop embarrassing yourself with that way of fighting, you look pathetic running scared to death—he began to attack in an uncontrolled way He laughed like crazy and his attacks were constant—come on, boy, I don't think you just want to defend yourself against all my attacks.

Each attack that I stopped with my sword made me go back due to the magnitude of its power, the attacks that I could not stop destroyed everything that came through, the intensity was so much that I began to get tired, I immediately ran away from the place to wait for my body to recover, it made me look as weak as a child, actually the power of a Dark was too much for me .

Damn it ! One more time running away from this damn madman, but I have to do something about it or else it will kill me, he thinks, he thinks... everyone must have a weak point, but I just have to discover it.

standing in a corner of that labyrinth—what is supposed to have happened? I could adjust that an attack of mine landed, but I didn't cut it—it's against me in a moment of desperation—no, James, calm down, you've always known how to defeat your enemies and you feel that way because you feel that their power is far superior than yours—I spoke to myself trying to calm my desperation—if you try to control these fears and balance your power, everything will flow differently, always remember to connect the sword with your soul and concentrate on what you have in front of you, that way if you can win—I took my sword to try to kill this guy. Suddenly I felt Mike's power, but not only his, I could also feel a power as immense as the power of the guy he was fighting. Most likely he is in a battle with another Dark , I just hope he can stay alive all this time. Come on, Mike, I trust in your power, don't let me down.

BARCLAYS

-I must admit that his last attack he made was very powerful, if he had only touched me I think he would have done terrible damage to my body, I never believed that a human had such great power as this boy, what a pity that it had to end like this—I had won the battle, the body of the wolf boy was lying on the ground—I gave him so many chances that he ignored me, I think that what humans have in their heads is something that we will not be able to decipher.

—Mr. Barclays—a subject approached—I have a message from the high hierarchy, it's something very important, could you attend to me? I know that it is not the opportune moment that it has appeared.

—come on tell me—I kept my sword—you know I'm not a grumpy person.

—it's about the Dark Isquius , this morning he was found dead on top of a statue, everything indicates that someone of the same rank murdered him mercilessly, at the moment there is no suspect, it is a very sensitive issue and only the Dark can know about it, the news has spread Like wildfire, it seems the situation has changed.

—That is very bad news, Isquius was a good person, he was a just and noble man. Who would want to end his life ? —I frowned—as far as I know he had no enemies, we all liked him very much. But without a doubt there was something hidden behind this death, things would not go well after that death.

—I asked myself the same thing, sir, but things are like this for the moment, I suggest that we should not let our guard down, there is a treacherous within us—was placed in the form of reverence.

—That's right, we shouldn't trust our own shadow, now let's get out of here—I turned on my heel leaving the place of battle, there was a more important matter at this moment that wasting my own life was at risk.

"Sir, what are we going to do with this boy's body?" I point at him and try to do something about it.

—Leave him alone, let's just get out of here—I called him with my hand—let other people take care of him, we have more important things to solve.

"But sir, I feel that the boy's body is still alive, why do you want to leave him alive?" If you like I can kill him right now, for me it would not be a problem.

—hey, I gave you an order and it's to get out of here— I looked over my shoulder— did you understand? I don't like that Nate is disobeying me, from the control you will also end up like him, so follow me and don't talk anymore.

—But, sir, they are responsible for the palace being this way, since they came they have done their mischief in this place, I think that the fair and necessary thing is to kill him at this moment—he frowned, that was not fair, take advantage of someone in that state and give him the coup de grâce without first having fought.

—I know, but I assume that responsibility, rather ask them to come get him and treat him for his injuries, we need him alive, that way we can get all the information we want, that's my last word and I don't want any objections, I've already had enough for today.

—Okay, sir, I'll do what you ask and I apologize for having acted that way—he bowed—I promise it won't happen again.

Things seemed to be getting more and more complicated, I don't think one of these guys could have done that, their power is much lower than ours, which ruled out that possibility. But what else if I believe is that another of us did it, the question is who would be capable of doing such barbarism?

JAMES

I can't lose for anything in the world, I have friends who believe in me , especially Astrid, the girl I love the most, I couldn't die like this without first seeing her smile, her eyes and feeling those hands that always warm me in my arms. moments in which I feel more desolate, I have to win for all of it, the fear has to leave my body at this moment.

—until you've finally decided to fight— Masked Wolf was standing in front of me—or do you just come so I can cut your throat in one go? Tell me once and for all what your intentions are because so far I haven't been able to have as much fun as I want.

—I am sorry to tell you that this will not happen, I will never let you take my life in such an absurd way—I took my sword and managed to strike, I had wounded his side—I have too much hope in myself to give up, Masked Wolf, the word never It is a word that I have taken very seriously.

"What do you think boy?" You think that just by hurting me a little you think you'll beat me—he was approaching without any fear—thanks for giving you that thrust, for me it's exciting that an opponent has hurt me even the least, now get ready because the real fight will start right now—he raised his power, he took his sword and began to run towards me.- take this!-he made his first attack with which I could stop him with my sword, it had been a shocking shock, but the smile on his face was always present.

SOMEWHERE IN THE CENTRAL PALACE

Two Dark were talking about what happened with Isquius , there was a lot of intrigue about it.

"What do you plan to do about it?"

—I don't know yet, you know that I haven't been into these matters and less about using my power, but if I have to use it to end all this commotion, I will. Refraining to fight is the simplest thing, but they leave me no other option, killing is not the best way to solve problems, but I see that none of them have been able to stop these guys, we'll see how it goes with me. I just despise fighting with all my heart.

JAMES

The battle between Masked Wolf and I was very close, at the moment I was at his level attacking and dodging his attacks, his sword clashed with mine frequently sparking between attacks, his speed was superior to mine, but I could still predict where he would come from his next attack.

—impressive—he said it so animatedly —you have very good reflexes and I like that, I think your power has increased compared to how it was initially, that's how I like it, that an opponent is worthy of my sword.

"Hell, you actually think I'm stupid , right?" In case you think I haven't noticed, I've seen that you haven't used your true power yet, all of you Darks have a hidden power.

—Well, you're wrong with me, I don't need cheap tricks, the way you see me is my true power, I've fought with brute force, nothing more—he showed his sword.

—Well, you made a serious mistake by saying it, all this time I kept my distance believing that you were not using your true power, but now that you say it I can move more freely, in that case I will attack.

-You are very wrong to believe that, the fact that I do not have a hidden power does not mean that I am someone weak. On the contrary, I have so much power that I don't use it fully because I couldn't control it and if so, this battle wouldn't last a second, that's not my intention, otherwise, what was the point of not having fun?—I take my sword with his hand wounding himself, he took his sword and pierced my chest—what a boring way to fight and for that I waited so long all this time, I thought you were an opponent capable of killing me, someone who would at least last longer in battle—my body was lying on the ground bleeding to death—no more please, this wasn't fun at all—he was retiring victorious.

—Damn, I can't die—I spoke to my head, clenching my hands with so much hatred—not here, not in a place like this—I was trying to rejoin—come on, damn body, react and move, I must stop bleeding, you must let me fight even one more time—my breathing was hectic—I must save Katsuro !— Masked Wolf retreated with his sword hooked to his shoulder, suddenly I saw how everything stopped and with it came the demon that once spoke to me, the demon I carried inside my body.
