《Emperor Saga》Chapter 21 : Tag Team

Here you go, one more chapter, thanks for reading. It still not proofread, sorry(I feel I make many grammar mistake in this chapter lol)
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________
"Why did you keep a ruined potion in the wagon? Obviously it was your fault."
"Why did you mindlessly serve some liquid you saw in the wagon? It was your fault."
A few moments ago they were the best comrades but now Chrono and Aramis were arguing like they were sworn enemies. Both put the blame on each other. While they were busy with arguing, Oroviath recovered from the shock of seeing its sub bosses die one by one in front of its own eyes while receiving the same poison. Because it’s a boss class monster, it didn't die but its health was reduced to 30% while its stats were reduced to 50%.
In Emperor Saga, poisonous food is extremely fatal. But using it to hunt is impossible because no monster would eat food cooked by a user unless there was a pact made like in Oroviath’s case. And there was no way to know what a ruined potion’s effect is until it is tasted, Oroviath and its 5 sub bosses were extremely unlucky when the ruined potion’s effect was super effective against them.
Orovath went into a frenzy when it realized the situation. The pact between The Guardian of the Kramoris Mountain Range and the BloodBrothers was officially broken.
GRAAARGHHHH!!!!
Trting!!
By slaying the guardian dearest underling in front of it, the pact between Oroviath and the BloodBrothers are officially cancel.Now the guardian would hunt every single BloodBrothers member to avenge its underling.
"(Crap)"
"Aramis, it was your fault, you should deal with it."
"What? It was YOUR FAULT!!"
'Fake Death'
Without speaking further, Chrono heartlessly became a 'corpse' making the guardian only target Aramis.
"You bastard!"
Oroviath was not the only enemy, thousands of lesser minions also became hostile once the sub bosses were slain. Even though it's night-time, Aramis still can't fight the level 900 guardian while defending against thousands of Oroviath’s minions alone.
When Oroviath and its minions focused their attention on Aramis, Chrono rose from his corpse form and activated 'Walking Death' just in case Oroviath and the surrounding minions noticed him. He walked towards Thorin, in the opposite direction of Aramis’s battle against Oroviath.
"SCUMBAG!!"
Aramis screamed in frustration looking at Chrono going further away from the battle scene.
"(I'm sorry Aramis, I need to do this.)"
Chrono finally reached Thorin and he deactivated 'Walking Death' soon after.
"(Thorin, let’s go.)"
HYAAHH!!
Instead of steering Thorin away from the battle, Chrono rode on Thorin, with the wagon attached to its back, towards the battle scene with full speed. At full speed, Thorin was unstoppable Oroviath minions couldn’t even get near them. Chrono didn't even put out the fire from the wagon kitchen setting the left side of the wagon ablaze with fire. Chrono continued to ride Thorin at full speed towards Oroviath.

"Aramis, Dodge!"
Once he got close enough, Chrono slashed the ties connecting Thorin and the wagon while steering Thorin to the left while the wagon continued heading towards Oroviath at full speed.
'Wagon Crash!!'
The blaze from the wagon added damage to the speedy crash. The wagon was destroyed while Oroviath was dealt tremendous damage. But it was still not enough to slay the level 900 guardian boss monster. Chrono picked up Aramis while riding on Thorin as the wagon crashed into Oroviath’s body. Thorin needed to keep moving to avoid getting attacked by Oroviath’s minions.
"I thought you were going to run."
"Never mind that, we need to get out of this situation. It's easy to run, but the guardian will hunt us once it recovers."
"I have one last trump card but I need time to execute it."
"Okay, leave it to me."
Once they were done talking, Oroviath was already on their tail. Even with 50% stat, the guardian’s speed was only slightly below Thorin’s. Thankfully Chrono’s0 cunning way of steering Thorin confused the guardian and made sure the guardian’s attacks didn’t connect.
Because it was harder to dodge Oroviath’s attacks while having 2 people on its back, Aramis got down from Thorin while Chrono continued to draw the guardian’s attention. Both Chrono and Aramis didn't even talk, their chemistry was good enough to make them understand each other without a word.
WOOSSHH!!!
You hit the target
While riding the speedy Thorin, Chrono occasionally threw a spear to chip the guardian’s health even by a bit. He steered Thorin left and right dodging Oroviath’s attacks while occasionally throwing a spear when he saw the chance. With Thorin’s speed, the spear’s power was increased by half. If Chrono was fighting a normal boss monster instead of the level 900 guardian monster, Chrono’s spear throw empowered by Thorin’s speed might already pierced the boss’ body and concluded the battle.
Unlike a horse, Thorin has strong legs and mighty claws enabling it to run on any terrain without dropping its speed. Rock, grass, marsh, none can drop Thorin’s speed. Thorin can even run on vertical terrain by gripping the terrain with its strong claws. And finally, Thorin wings are small but it was enough to fly for at least 3 seconds making it easy for Chrono to jump from high places.
Trting!!
By riding your pet while fighting, you gained a skill 'Knight Rider'
"(A skill, bet it's something good but I can’t check the skill abilities in the current situation.)"
Chrono continued to ride Thorin, running around Oroviath while dodging and throwing a spear occasionally. Since Aramis needed to defend himself against Oroviath’s minions while preparing his trump card, it took more time to prepare his trump card.

**********
The onlookers’ side
"Mwuahahahaha!!! Now they attack the guardian!!"
"Leader, get a hold of yourself, we need to help Chrono and Aramis."
"Hahahaha!! They can die for all I care. Hahaha!!!"
"Maybe it's too shocking for the leader, guys help me."
As Sitka was looking at the other 3 high ranking BloodBrothers members, she saw the high ranking members were either crying, dumbfounded or petrified by the current development.
*Hic* "Our clan’s protector." *Hic*
"Our clan’s future......if they don't slay Oroviath, it will hunt us and if by some chance they slay Oroviath, the next guardian will only spawn after 3 months and we would need to make a new pact and the guardian will be a lot weaker too."
".................................."
"(It seems I'm the only sane person here.)"
Without Oroviath’s protection, BloodBrothers are vulnerable against attacks by the authorities, it seems Chrono and Aramis’s mistake may have brought about the clan’s demise.
*************
Chrono continued drawing Oroviath’s attention while chipping away at the guardian’s health little by little with his spear throw. Thankfully, Thorin showed no sign of being tired of running, it seems Thorin’s stamina is quite high. After almost two hours, Aramis had finally readied his trump card.
"It’s ready!!"
Once he heard the word 'ready', Chrono steered Thorin towards Aramis while Oroviath chased closely behind him.
"(Why did he take THIS long?)"
Aramis had never actually used his trump card since he felt it was cowardly and the price was too high for him. Because of that, it was harder for him to remember assembling the parts of his trump card, the trademark of the musketeer, a weapon belonging to the strongest weapon category in Emperor Saga.
The Musket
Belonging to the gun category, a weapon category which damage is considered broken by many users and the prices have been at the top for 10 years. Chrono steered Thorin towards Aramis while Aramis aimed the musket towards Oroviath just behind Chrono.
"(Here you go my one and only 10 gold bullet.)"
BANG!!!
Groagghhh!!
By unleashing the bullet, Aramis’s body was knocked back while Oroviath was dealt tremendous damage but the guardian still didn't die. Now Aramis was in the more dangerous position since he had aggravated Oroviath and he didn't have a speedy pet to ride like Chrono. Realizing the situation, Chrono turned back and faced Oroviath.
"(I heard inside of its mouth is an acid corrosive enough to kill me instantly, need to avoid that.)"
Chrono charged at Oroviath with full speed, he held Grave tightly with his right hand preparing for the final assault.
GROAGH!!
Oroviath didn't back down, as if to retain its dignity as the guardian, Oroviath charged at Chrono with full speed. When Oroviath got closer, Chrono bravely jumped from Thorin while holding Grave with both of his hands towards Oroviath’s eye.
'Soul Blade'
At the last moment, Chrono activated soul blade, a broken skill that can ignore defence. The speedy Thorin charged and Chrono’s jump was great enough to make Chrono’s body fly to Oroviath’s eyes and stab the eye with Grave. The impact was great enough to inflict a huge amount of damage to Oroviath. Chrono didn't stop there, he was determined to slay the guardian here, Chrono cast a skill he had never used before.
'Abaddon Kiss'
Thousands of souls came out from Grave and attacked Oroviath rapidly for 10 seconds. In those 10 seconds, Oroviath was busy dealing with thousands of souls’ attacks. Chrono took this chance to attack further.
'Ragnarok'
The sword pierced through Oroviath’s body impaling it. The sword didn't make Oroviath completely helpless but the guardian’s speed dropped by almost 80% by fighting with 'Ragnarok stuck in its body. Aramis joined in the attack by attacking relentlessly with his rapier keeping Oroviath busy.
Chrono took out a heavy spear from the portal and thrust it in Oroviath’s eyes. He continued taking out heavy spears from the portal and thrust them into Oroviath’s eyes until the guardian was completely hopeless. Both Chrono and Aramis held their respective swords with both of their hands to thrust tino Oroviath for the final attack.
""HYAAAH!!!""
You party have slain The Guardian Monster, Oroviath
"One down, thousand more to go. Aramis, don't give up."
"Don’t intend to!"
""WE WILL FIGHT TO DEATH!!""
Even with Oroviath gone, thousands of Oroviath’s minions still surrounded Chrono and Aramis. Thorin was already exhausted by the constant running, it can protect itself but breaking away from the thousands of minions surrounding them while giving Chrono and Aramis a ride was currently an impossible task.
********
"I have made my decision, we can’t recover the guardian and the kids are brave enough to fight the guardian despite their low level which is something to praise. Troublesome brothers still are our brothers, lets help them."
"(It seems the leader has already recovered from the shock.)"
"Yeah, let’s do our job as the big brothers."
Jurek’s party charged towards Chrono and Aramis’s location intending to save them.
The big Brothers have come.

Star God
An ancient, ageless entity of magic intertwines with the essence of a tribal hero and a god is born. In a land where the worship of any entity is banned and punishable by mass-execution, the young and idealistic deity must come to terms with the ugliness of humanity, and find a way for his flock to survive, and maybe even thrive. A young man born into a mountain tribe treads the path of a hero, but he must learn the extent to which he would go to keep his people and their fledgling god safe and happy. Enemies are everywhere, and to defend their way of life, they must learn to harness the power of magic. Others are ahead of them in this regard, so they must act fast if they are to survive. A Xianxia-esque magic system, but with a focus on Western-style spellcasting and mysticism. This is more or less a deconstruction of classical fantasy and pantheons. The story focuses on two main characters; a God and a hero who serves him. Kingdom building themes are prevalent. If you like it, please remember to rate and review.

The Legend of Fanaura: Cursed
'Hey, need some help there?' An unfamiliar voice echoed through her mind, and she startled, losing her grip on the red phial. It rolled through the grass, away from her. "Oh shoot!" she yelped, and her focus diverted from her opponent for a split second, but it was enough to prove fatal. The beast took advantage of her distraction and lunged towards her. She tried to back away, but in her haste, she stumbled and fell. She looked at the beast, inches away from her, and shut her eyes in fear. She raised her arms to cover her head, even if she knew it was futile. Yet seconds passed, and no pain came. Then she heard the beast let out a pained yelp. She opened her eyes to the familiar sounds of battle before her. A tall man stood before her, locked in battle with the beast. He wielded a sword as long as his height, yet it didn't seem to hinder him in the slightest. She watched in awe as he swung the obviously heavy sword around as if it were light as a feather. His movements were swift and precise, and it didn't take long before the beast fell to the ground, motionless. “You alright there, miss?” The man sheathed his sword across his back, before turning to her. Her eyes widened when she heard his voice. It was the same voice who had that had spoken into her mind and the cause of her almost-fatal distraction. "You...!" she hissed.***She was the chosen one to end the war between the Goddesses when they were supposed to take care of the world balance. Refused to be the pawn of the Goddess she chooses to kill herself, thinking that it will end her obligation and suffering.

Being reborn in the same world after the end of the Goddesses war in a pre-apocalyptic situation, she knew she needs to face her fate as the cursed heroine. But her path won't be easy as darkness lurks and hidden between her friends and comrades waiting to punch her in the back and ruined her journey of redemption and world saving. Would she succeed or succumbed once more?
