Power.

Raw power.

Jason felt raw power rushing through his veins as his body went through a series of changes. All the sweat accumulated during the fight vanished and the feeling of tiredness he had slowly started feeling vanished.

Jason felt that with a single punch, he could shake an entire mountain.

[ System to host, we currently have a fight ongoing and though the power-up sure is nice, you might get defeated due to not paying attention. ] The system's voice suddenly broke him out of his daze.

His eyes directly moved to where Amber was standing before flickering over to Zilan. The prime minister was staring at Jason as well, their gazes meeting mid-air.

'Guardian of Anipolis… I remember big brother sent a group of five elites to capture that guardian who was supposedly seen inside Duphia.' Zilan slightly narrowed his eyes while remembering the past.

The elite group had never made it back to the capital and Zilan's brother, the king, had refused to send anyone in search of the elite group.

It was clear that the five had been killed yet the question that remained was, who killed them?

Zilan had always imagined that the guardian had killed them but now that  he was in the presence of the same guardian, his theory was confirmed.

'I have to talk to that boy,' Zilan thought before glancing at the secret glass box on the other side of the arena. 'Which means that I have to take care of them as well.'

Of course Zilan had no idea that Issac had already overheard his conversation beforehand and knew what he was planning.

Simultaneously, Jason also recovered the memories that had been removed from his mind by Erebus.

They came crashing down on him like a waterfall, making him clutch his head. It felt as though someone was poking holes in his head using needles.

[ Jason, calm down… ] Feta's voice suddenly echoed inside his head, slightly numbing the pain.

Jason did as instructed and tried to calm himself, resulting in multiple failures and headaches. However at last, he was finally able to calm himself down and navigate through the set of memories.

'Feta, was it you who killed that Otis guy and the rest of his teammates?' Jason inquired as he had went through the set of memories.

[ They are not exactly dead. Just stuck in another world. ] Feta sighed, knowing well enough that she owed Jason an explanation. [I will try to explain things afterwards. Just focus on defeating that salamander for now.]

The moment she finished speaking, a barrage of magma rocks shot towards Jason. It was only due to his eyes that he was able to see them coming towards him despite the smoke.

[ Try doing the same thing you did before but instead of throwing the thunder out casually, think of it as one of your limbs and control it that way. ] Feta instructed as she used her experience to guide Jason.

Jason did as told as he summoned a huge voltage of lightning around his arms. The raw power traveling through his veins made Jason's ears pop a bit, something he didn't pay much attention to.

He instead focused on the lightning while thinking of the raw energy he had released earlier. The crackling sound once again spread throughout his surroundings as thunder escaped his body from the tips of his hands.

The entire arena was taken up by a storm while Jason felt the thunder extending like a part of his own body.

He followed Feta's words and tried to control them in this manner. At first, the thunder seemed to be going out of control as it directly clashed against multiple  magma rocks.

'Come on Jason. You have been through way too many chaotic situations to be slowing down right now!' Jason shouted at himself mentally.

Tic!

A clicking sound suddenly resounded through his mind as the thunder stopped advancing. It froze in the air as though someone had paused time.

Jason blinked in surprise when he saw this happen but he didn't have the time to stop and separate. He immediately made the thunder move around him and destroy the magma rocks one after the other.

Jason couldn't help but be surprised by how well he was doing as all of the magma rocks were destroyed one after the other.

This resulted in even more explosions and spreading of debris all around the arena floor. Amber wasn't spared from them either, having to erect a firewall in front of her.

Jason chose this moment to advance in and attack as the thunder moved towards his legs. He felt even faster than the moment he used his lightning steps, appearing directly behind Amber in the blink of an eye.

'The hell…' Amber's eyes caught Jason moving behind her a split second before he hit her squarely in the chest

Flamey had managed to erect a magma shield for her yet the rock had easily been shattered by Jason's kick, sending debris directly towards Amber's body and inflicting minor wounds.

One of the magma pieces, however, directly struck her right should and left her arm numb.

"I won." Jason spoke clearly as he appeared behind Amber once again, his index finger touching the back of her throat as sparks flew all around the duo.

"I know…" Amber sighed as she felt Flamey's presence slowly leaving her body. The salamander instead appeared on her left shoulder and glared at Jason.

The latter glared back at the small lizard for a few seconds before averting his gaze. Jason had better things to do than indulge in a staring competition with a salamander.

He retracted all of his lightning back towards his body before glancing right at the glass box.

Jason could tell that his actions would've attracted the attention of too many people but he didn't seem to care.

He had not only won the competition but had also managed to gain a guardian, something he knew very little about.

Jason's spirits were very high and he was feeling good, thinking of the awarding ceremony, when he felt strength leaving his body.

[ I am sorry Jason but you have to use your own strength to stay standing now. I will be back during the night. ] Feta's voice sounded very far away as she left Jason's body.

The ten-year-old felt as though someone had just sucked all energy out of his body. His head felt a lot dizzy as though he would crash down on the ground the next second.

His legs had suddenly turned jelly-like as he stumbled in an attempt to keep standing straight.

'System…' Jason was about to ask as he suddenly lost balance and was about to fall face forward. 'I guess that's how the tournament arc ends…' He thought while falling.

"You did excellent. I'm proud of you, Jason." A familiar voice entered his ears as Jason fell his body hitting something solid yet soft.

His eyes were only slightly open as he caught a trace of red hair, instantly knowing that it was Risa.

"Grandma…" Jason murmured as he heard a chuckle.

"Of course, kiddo." She replied, her voice containing traces of pride.

Jason was leaning on her back before Risa turned around and grabbed him by the shoulders. She then raised her right hand and pressed it to his forehead.

Jason felt his strength returning slowly as his eyes opened fully. He glanced around to see that Ariana, the head of the Feuer family, was kneeling down beside Amber.

She too looked exhausted just like Jason, the fight having drained both of them physically as well as mentally.

[ This is one of the huge aftereffects one faces after merging with a guardian. ] The system informed after Jason had recovered to quite some extent.

'Maybe that would've been a good thing to know before actually connecting with one. What if we were in an actual battlefield?' Jason questioned while standing straight on his feet.

[ Not like its my fault! Erebus prevented me from telling you the truth as he had a feeling that you would refuse to accept Feta as your guardian. ] The system spoke in its defense.

'I was just joking, no need to get this serious.' Jason amended before glancing in Zilan's direction again.

The prime minister wasn't looking back at him and instead seemed to be staring into the crowd. Perhaps he had located someone important inside the crowd.

'I need to stop them before they make their advance.' Zilan, however, was trying to think how he could stop Kerwin and Nero before they could leave the hidden glass box.

He debated whether to go there himself or not but never got the chance to make a decision. If he suddenly approached that area, people would get suspicious.

Perhaps he could try talking to them telepathically.

'Damn it!' Zilan cursed as he suddenly felt the auras of the demi-human prince and Nero popping right behind the arena.

He wasn't the only one who sensed them as both Risa and Ariana had sensed them too.

The two old women exchanged a glance, communicating through gazes instead of words. Both of them knew that the two auras weren't good news.

"One of them is that guy Nero and the second one is Kerwin. I told you about them before." Risa communicated without speaking anything.

Ariana nodded slightly before both of them turned their gazes down. They were thinking the same thing.

They were going to capture Nero and Kerwin.
