The dark guardian

C72

"I guess you're Karius " I looked at him from head to toe, I could feel something dark coming from his body, this guy had something I didn't like at all.

—You're right—he smiled—but make yourself at home—he opened his arms in the form of a hug—I guess the guy next to you is Katsuro —at that moment I was surprised that even he knew.

"How do you know all these things?" I sentenced him with my sword. "I don't like you at all."

"James…" Katsuro said pointing around me, there was a very dark aura around him, he radiated fear. He was coming down the steps facing them . He couldn't deny that his mansion was very luxurious, but an air of death could be felt.

"Don't be afraid" I try to get closer, but obviously I wouldn't let him do it.

"Stay there asshole ." I prepared my sword to attack.

—James, one moment— katsuro said taking his time—look up—he signaled me with his eyebrow. Look another guy was coming.

—Wow, it seems that we have more guests who have come for Kai—he smiled —he means what are some souls to devour—he tasted his lips.

"Wait a minute," Karius ordered.

" Katsuro go," I ordered, "I need you to go look for Kai, meanwhile I'll take care of these guys," I nodded confidently.

—I can't leave you alone, it would be crazy, just look at how many there are, you won't be able to beat them all and this time listen to me—he took his katanas to fight by my side.

—Even if I wanted to, I couldn't allow it, it's more important that you go for Kai, I'll be fine, I promise you and you can be sure I won't break my promises, now just go quickly and take Billy too, he can guide you in this great Mansion.

" Okay " they ran away.

"Not if I allow it." Roshi attacked Katsuro 's swords , but I immediately got in the way of his attack. "How dare you?" How insolent you are.

I looked around me and there were seven subjects, there were too many for me , but I had already made a promise to Katsuro that I would be fine.

—Attack me if you want, I'm not afraid of you—I put myself in defense mode, waiting for his first attack.

Karius instantly placed an amulet on the ground.

"Do you know what this means?" He pointed to his amulet. "This you see here is where my contained power is, all of us Volts have one that when we leave it outside our body we are vulnerable, we can neither attack nor defend ourselves." I do this with the simple fact that you have a fair battle with Roshi , that is, we are too proud to try to fight all against a single opponent. So please amuse me I need a good show, depending on that I will see if you are a worthy opponent for me.— He sat down in a comfortable chair crossing one leg over the other.

—I don't know what a stupid game this is, but come on, I'm not here to waste time with your gossip.

The fight began, he used his snake whip, which turned everything into black snakes. They were huge, I destroyed the ground on purpose to let more come out, but I bravely used my sword to stop all the attacks it generated at me.

"What a weak defense you have," he mocked.

KATSURO

"Do you think James is okay with those guys?" Billy and I ran into a large hallway adorned with colorful pictures and a grass-like green carpet.

—what I'm sure of is that james is not an idiot, he is doing everything possible so that we have time and rescue Kai—we keep running.

—I'm very sorry for not helping much, if only we had more information about those Volts, we had some plan to eliminate them, I bet they have a weak point.

"Look, there's a Room in front of us," I pointed out as we ran further and further.

"Wait a minute," Billy stopped short, "I feel like there's someone else with us, don't you feel it?" I looked back at my worried face.

—I'm sure they left a Volt taking care of Kai, so don't worry, if you go with me believe me nothing will happen to you—we keep running until we reach that room.

It was big and bright, the walls were white and it had many arched windows, it had an impressive view, but suddenly I saw a shadow that passed in front of my eyes.

"Stay back, Billy" I placed my hand on Billy's chest and started to walk cautiously, I didn't want someone to come out suddenly or catch us with our defenses down.

—the boy was right—a guy with a sword and an outfit just like mine was in front of me .

It can't be, this doesn't have to be real, he was a vigilante just like me.

"Who are you ?" I pointed at him with my index finger.

—I haven't finished what I had to say, it seems that you are a rude subject. I said that the boy was not mistaken about having felt the presence of someone else, but returning to our conversation, my name is Bulls, I also see that you also have a vigilante outfit, it means that they sent you from the central dimension .

How did he know? I get that he knew about those things, only people who have been there know about this.

—Hey, I don't know how you found out about all that, I don't know what you do with the Volt either, but you're definitely someone I don't trust.

—Perhaps you are wondering how I know these things. I can tell you that I was also a vigilante and from the squad that the Dark commands. Masked Wolf, I was in that squad long before he got promoted to Dark . He was the one who ended the illusions, with my dreams, I deserved that position more than him. He is just someone who likes to fight to get stronger, he enjoys blood and glory, but he is not a man who fights for peace and justice. You have no idea how it feels to go through everything I had to live, from that moment I left that dimension, I couldn't follow a man who only sought his own benefit, it was very unfair. More however I get to know Karius . He did give me new hope, a reason to get ahead and that is why I am willing to give my life if possible for him , I am convinced that this is the path of truth and that he only wants what is good for one.

—how blind you are—try to reason with him—he's just using you like he's doing with those other guys, we both know the plan he has in the underworld, he'll become stronger and he'll see you as simple cockroaches. Please don't let him dominate your weaknesses.

—Shut up, I won't allow you to talk about my leader anymore , let's make your first attack—I wait to receive it.

"If that's what you want, that's fine, I'll have to do it." I lowered all my power to hit him with a ball of fire.

The smoke was dissipating little by little and he was standing without a pout scratch. Perfect, as expected, this guy is very strong.

—don't try to be smart with me, I know that's not all your power, I could feel how you can suddenly descend, do you think I'm a child you can be playing with?— he took his sword, this time he was serious .

KAI LOGAN

Damn I feel like that power is here, without a doubt it is the power of James and also that of the boys, surely they have come for me . I got out of bed in a hurry, the door was closed.

—Get me out of here!— I yelled again and again hitting the door, but I didn't have the strength for that, it was a shame of mine that after having a lot of power now not even one if more wooden door could open.

Shit, I have to do something to help the boys.

JAMES

—I'm tired of what you always do, don't you have another attack?— I challenged him to get something better than his simple snakes.

Of course I do , but what's the rush?" He smiled as he pulled more of his snakes.

—Well, if you don't try it, I will try it—he would use something that he himself didn't expect.

—what can you do? If all this time you have spent running away from my attacks.

"Just look at this" I used my flash step appearing behind him "you're mine" I cut him on his chest, I immediately saw how the blood soaked his shirt.

"Nice try, but I have another trick up my sleeve too." I cast a spell right under my feet. It was a kind of luminous circle that followed me with the same speed wherever I teleported—no matter how hard you try to run away from it, you won't be able to, even no one has been able to make fun of it, you're asking James—he laughed feeling victorious.

ATTES

I hear sounds coming from the top floor, surely a great fight is taking place,

I need to get out of here right away, but my body feels tired, I don't know what the hell that asshole Roshi could have done to it . I approached the door, but it had a spell that made it indestructible, he attacks it several more times, however I could not do any damage.

Immediately I heard a great noise, it seemed that they would destroy the mansion, follow that all Karius 's henchmen are fighting at this moment and I was a fool here without being able to do anything about it.

This time I will be the one to kill him, even if it costs me the same life .

JAMES

Damn, this circle always follows me, I can see that more snakes come out of it, even if it was very fast I could n't dodge its attack, I must admit that it had come out smarter than I thought.

"You still don't seem to understand it," Roshi spoke. while I continued to dodge his attacks, especially the one with the spell.— I will explain to you a little about the mechanism of my spell, it is a type of radar, that is to say, its power lies in the warmth of people, since you are a human always your blood tends to be hot, that's why wherever you appear and come in contact with the ground my snake will detect you wherever you are, so it is impossible for you to escape from it.

—Are you sure?— Cut off the heads of many snakes repeatedly—that attack won't be enough to defeat me—from one moment to another, snakes came out of the ground to tie my feet, leaving me vulnerable to Roshi 's attack .

—You can no longer escape —he smiled devilishly—I told you that you couldn't escape from my fabulous spell—a large number of snakes came at me , their impact was strong Yam that generated the rupture of the wooden floor that was there. Settled with a smoke screen.- I am very sorry for destroying part of your elegant mansion , Master Karius -he apologized- but he had no choice but to destroy this insolent boy- he turned on his heel in the opposite direction to leave the place— I thought this would be more fun, but I see that as always, there are no opponents for me .

—I wouldn't be as sure as you say—I rejoined taking my sword—do you think your attack hurt me? Let me tell you that I was testing your power and I see that you did not hurt as I thought, but now you will receive my attack—I took my sword and began to raise my power so that my body became more and more luminous—take this—I jumped to attack him with my sword.

"You can't hurt me" he attacked me again with his snakes, but the edge of my sword was much more powerful than his power. I was able to cut it into a thousand pieces, I left the mansion in a mess, there was a big gap in the floor and part of the roof, the opening allowed the sun's rays to enter.

—I see that you have an impressive power, it wasn't surprising, from what I see having fought with those Dark has made you very strong— Karius said .

"How do you know these things?" It was all supposed to be a secret—I buried my sword to the side.

—I have already told you that I know everything, there is nothing I don't know in this life, but I think you still don't understand x I also know that the step you used was developed in the central dimension, you call that step flash. Isn't that so? —He crossed his arms and analyzed me—the saddest thing of all is that you just destroyed my mansion, you have no idea how much I liked it —he shook his head.

Well, it's too bad that he did that, but if you want, I'll knock it all down and rebuild it completely," I presumed.

Immediately I saw how a snake took the amulet of power from Karius .

—I had never expected this moment— Roshi had it in his hands—this is absolute power, it is time for me to reign among us and not you— Roshi himself had betrayed his leader—in all the ways I ever thought of removing this I didn't think it would be the easiest way, now your body is vulnerable to any attack.

"Are you sure you can do better than me?" Karius asked so sure of himself, his gaze was cold and he didn't look like he had any fear at all.

—I know I can do it much better than you—smiling—did you go crazy or what ? Can't you see I have your amulet? This is a great power—he acted like a madman.

"I'm not interested in that," he replied so coldly.

" Well, let 's see if this doesn't interest you." He cast a spell on Karius , but Karius stopped it with great precision. "How is that possible if you don't have your power?"

"You still don't seem to understand anything."

As if by magic I appreciate a guy with a sword in his hand in front of Roshi , he so astonished began to take a few steps back. This guy looked like a vigilante.

—It's all over for you—he took his sword and created a circle in the air with it, instantly enveloping him in a bubble of uninterrupted attacks, thus managing to wound him in multiple areas.

"It can't be," he said, falling into the abyss that my attack had made on the floor of the mansion.

What caught my attention the most was that guy, he was definitely not a Volt, he was more of a vigilante than anything else. His power was great, since it did not take him a second to eliminate Roshi .

—I hope you are very well, Master Karius —she prostrated before his presence .

"Hey you," I turned to him, "Who the hell are you ?"

—what little education you have, but who cares—he saw me again—my name is Bulls, I am a former vigilante.

—What does a vigilante do with the Volt?— I wanted to know since it seemed very strange to me.

Even if I told you, you'd never understand. The best thing is that we moment our rolls and fight—he took it in front of me and began to raise his power in a big way.

—As you wish—I also raised my power without restraint.

"First of all, they say that you defeated Masked Wolf, is that true?" He smiled .

—That's right, but that's not the point, let's go attack me —we both ran in our direction with this great power that covered us.
