Guardian Of The End

"Water prison: Limb version." Aila muttered under her breath the moment the battle started.

Two spheres of water suddenly appeared around Jason's legs, followed by his hands. Both of his limbs were sealed off by the water spheres as he felt them increasing the weight of his limbs.

It was as though the water had suddenly turned into dumbles that were chained to his limbs and were dragging him down.

'She is the older sibling for a reason.' Jason glanced at Aila raising her hands in his direction. 'But then, I am the older sibling too despite me and Nora being cousins.'

Jason suddenly dashed forward and used the remaining time of his skill. The water spheres however had decreased it speed to such a level that Aila could track him with her eyes.

He was forced to use a ranged attack due to that since she could track his moments in close range.

"Lightning bolt." Jason muttered as a purple lightning bolt appeared in his right hand. He immediately aimed it at Aila and chucked the lightning bolt.

Though the lightning bolt moved at the speed of lightning, Aila was somehow able to dodge it in time.

[ Host, don't move your arms to much. I think there is something about the water prison that we are missing. ] The system alerted Jason before he could throw another lightning bolt.

'How am I supposed to attack her then?' He inquired despite knowing the answer just to see what the system would suggest.

[ By grabbing the lightning bolt through your mouth. ] It replied in a neutral tone.

Jason sighed after hearing the system's words as he quickly opened his status screen to check his mana.

'Wait, something isn't right...' Jason realized that the mana used to summon previous lighting bolt was twice the original amount.

His eyes fell down on the spheres of water that had completely submerged his hands and fee. However, all four of his limbs were still dry.

'System, scan them thoroughly.' Jason instructed as he summoned a lightning bolt in between his mouth and held it there.

'Why is he doing that?' Issac and Zara blinked in confusion as they didn't understand the logic behind Jason's behavior.

However, both of them were soon able to think of multiple theories as they realized that the spheres of water was something much powerful than just water dumbles.

Kerwin on the other hand narrowed his eyes as he looked from one sphere of water to another.

'How did he figure it out so soon? Just what is this kid hiding…' Kerwin of course knew what his daughter had planned but he hadn't expected Jason to figure out the real purpose of the water spheres so soon.

[ Host, these spheres are mana suckers too. The moment you use your mana for an attack that uses your limbs, they will suck the same amount of mana making you use double the original amount of mana. ] The system informed, having finished its scan.

[ Also, it doesn't suck any mana from your movement skill because it was used before the spheres stuck to your body. Also, only a minute remains before your skill ends. ]

Jason gritted his teeth as he threw the lightning bolt at Aila again. She seemed to be trying hard to focus yet failed badly due to Jason's constant attacks.

She was getting fed up with them and to stop Jason, she decided to use one of her trump cards.

While dodging a few more lightning bolts, Aila communicated with her father through glances. Kerwin nodded slightly, having understood what his daughter wanted to do.

Aila smiled a bit before jumping straight in the air. She jumped around thirty feet in the air which left Jason slightly shocked. At the apex of her jump, Aila bit her ruight thumb and dropped her blood on the ground.

'So she can already use her bloodline well...' Zara narrowed her eyes as she knew what Aila was doing.

Zara was sure that Jason's chances of victory were very less unless he was hiding a few more trump cards.

'I don't know whether you are hiding them or not, Jason but this is the right moment to reveal them.' Zara thought while staring at Jason.

He was trying to remove the water sphere on his right hand with the help of the lightning bolt in his mouth but the results weren't good. His gaze was also fixated on Aila as he saw changes taking place in her body.

All of this was going around simultaneously in less than a minute as two blue cat ears appeared on top of Aila's head. The ears were soon followed by a black cat tail that came out from behind her and curled up

'How the hell did I miss a hole in her clothes?!' Jason was baffled as he noticed that the tail hadn't pierced Aila's clothes.

[ That statement sounds very perverted for some reason. ] The system commented nonchalantly.

'Only a real pervert will see it that way.' Jason replied before he glanced down at the sphere on his hand. He pushed the bolt of lightning inside until it came out of the other end.

Jason then left the bolt hanging in the sphere while turning to look at Aila.

'Just a few more seconds…' Jason felt the sparks of lightning from the lightning bolt slowly spreading inside the sphere.

He was making a gamble by doing this and had no idea whether his little experiment would work and get him freed.

He just needed a few more seconds to figure out whether he could break free of the spheres but Aila wasn't going to give him that time.

"Water shurikens." Ten spinning shurikens suddenly shot out from Aila's palm as they targeted Jason.

The boy tried to dodge them by running around but soon realized two things. One that the shurikens were continuously following him and two that the waters spheres were getting heavier the more he moved.

Fortunately, his experiment worked which made Jason sigh in relief.

'Payback time.' Jason thought as dashed in Aila directions, passing right beside a water shuriken that grazed his shoulder and left a huge wound.

Jason gritted his teeth in pain as he saw the wound through the torn part of his shirt. He managed to hold on despite the pain in his arm before the sphere on his right arm suddenly fell down followed by all other.

"What…" Aila's jaw dropped slightly as Jason smiled and reached a few feet away from her. Aila was still in the air though she had fallen by ten or so feet.

"I wrote a proverb right now. Wanna listen?" Jason paused and without listening to her reply, continued on. "A lightning bolt a day leaves you paralyzed."

"How is that a proverb?" Aila asked in a confused tone.

"Who said it was meant to be one?" Jason replied with a shrug before he jumped in the air and appeared right in front of him.

"Wait what?" Aila was completely confused by Jason's words yet her guard was up as Jason had jumped right in front of her, his jump barely being half as high as hers.

"Sorry but I don't wait for people I don't know," Jason replied. "And now, let me demonstrate the proverb for you."

A cracking sound resounded throughout the place as Jason once again activated his movement skill and flickered mid-air, surprising Aila.

His hand appeared right in front of her chest before he touched it with his index finger.

"Nightie Nightie." He smiled before passing lightning right inside Aila's body, though he controlled himself.
