Guardian Of The End

[ That was cringe host… ] The system commented.

'I know but I still wanted to say it once. Just wanted to know how heroes feel before a major fight and what creates this atmosphere of excitement.' Jason replied.

Once he had said that, he activated his mana eyes and started moving around. His eyes were tracking the moments of all three of the clones, mostly the white lightning one's.

It was the only clone amongst the trio who was capable of preventing Jason from moving too quick or dodging the attacks coming his way.

'System, can you track the movements of the other two?'

[ I can. Leave that to me. ]

Jason slightly nodded before summoning two daggers made from his dark element. Though he wanted to use his thunder to deal damage to the clones, the daggers of darkness were far more effective.

​ Jason's eyes caught on to the mana of the speed clone and used it to track his movements. Soon enough, he was matching the clone's movements and was moving accordingly.

The other two clones were launching their own attacks but neither of them had the ability to match Jason's speed.

'So, this is what someone might feel like if they are fighting me. I am mixture of all three of these forms…' Jason observed.

Without any warning, he stopped moving and felt the speed clone slightly bump into him. That was all the time Jason needed to move his hand and stab the clone with the dark dagger.

The clone didn't show any expression of pain, but it did clutch at its abdomen. Instead of blood mana was flowing out of the wound which was automatically being attracted to Jason's body.

Jason, however, created a bubble of darkness around him to make sure that the mana didn't reach his body.

The quality of the mana was much higher leveled than his own and it was coming from his clone. Despite this, Jason wasn't going to take a risk by consuming the mana.

[ Good decision. ]

'Thank you.'

Once he made sure that no mana could reach his body, Jason proceeded to the next part of the plan.

He once again vanished from his spot and waited for the speed clone to start pursing him.

It happened in less than a few seconds, making Jason smile. He snapped the fingers of his right hand and immediately dashed towards the speed clone.

The latter froze on his spot as black smoke started rising from his wound.

'By using the right amount of dark and light mana, you can easily corrupt internal organs, especially if the wound is deep and the other side doesn't have any internal protection.'

Jason had simply destroyed one of the clone's internal organs alongside the internal lining of his stomach.

Even though it was a clone and likely couldn't feel the pain, the attack was enough to make it collapse on the ground.

Its companions tried to save it but Jason was already standing right next to its face. Summoning a large amount of dark mana, Jason brought his feet down on the clone's face.

'It's painful to stomp on a somewhat resemblance of my face.' Jason gritted his teeth as he smashed the clone's face.

He immediately jumped back and saw the clone's mana slowly leaking out of his body. The body started shrinking before reverting back to the form of a cube.

The cube sank deep inside the ground and kept sinking until Jason could no longer track it with his vision.

Jason soon shifted his attention back to the two clones who, for some reason, were standing still on their spots.

It didn't take Jason more than five seconds to figure out that they were going through a power up due to the defeat of their partner.

Jason raised an eyebrow but didn't say anything. He simply watched the mana inside the bodies of the clones multiply twice its original amount.

Not only that but its purity was outclassing Jason's mana purity by a bit. If he were to exchange blows using thunder, the clones would be able to overpower his thunder due to their higher purity.

'I was planning to use dark element from the start anyways, so it doesn't really matter.'

Jason slowly planned out his next strategy and decided to take the buff guy out. The lasso guy was the easiest to handle but if the buff guy got even stronger and managed to land a hit on him, he would be toast.

[ You can try trapping the buff guy and attacking him from there. He doesn't have the speed or the means of saving himself from that. He might be able to destroy things but getting out of traps is another thing. ]

'Hmm…'

The two clones came back to life again and started moving. The lasso guy had upgraded his arsenal and was now brandishing multiple spiky whips in Jason's direction.

Jason summoned his own whips made of darkness and used it to counter the incoming whips. However, he immediately had to let go of the whips when he remembered that the thunder could transfer over to him.

Simultaneously, the attack clone also launched himself at Jason and started swinging his fists at him.

Thunder was wrapped around his fists and if any of them hit Jason, he knew he would suffer a major blow.

There were some close instances where Jason had to use a lot of his dark mana to corrode the incoming attack.

'Fk!'

One of the clone's attacks grazed Jason's shoulder, sending a tingling sensation down his arm. Fortunately, it only lasted a second and didn't leave him paralyzed since he was a thunder mage as well.

Seeing no other option Jason raised his hand forward and transferred a small amount of dark mana from the tip of his finger to the clone's body.

Jason immediately jumped back and snapped his fingers to activate the dark mana corrosion. Unfortunately, he wasn't able push much of the mana onto the clone due to the armor of thunder he was wearing.

All he managed to do was to put a small hole in the armor. Jason gritted his teeth as he saw multiple green thunder arrows coming his way.

'Hestia, please lend me your powers.' Jason sighed in the end. 'I will need some of them to win this battle.'
