LEGENDARY GUARDIAN 267 Chapter 267: Andrew Defeated

Many may not be familiar with the term paladin but for people like Andrew who knew more about the life element, thanks to Cyrus was very familiar with the true strength of these paladins. Paladins are said to be the creators chosen warriors wielding the power of the light element while possessing even greater strength than normal guardian knights. These people are extremely skilled at leading armies and have numerous buff spells that can strengthen themselves and those around them. They are considered terrifying enemies by normal warriors and mages while those possessing evil magic refer to them as the grim reaper, sent to steal their lives. That explained why a single youth less than eighteen years of age could single-handedly defeat four werewolves as strong as silver realm elites.

"Yes I am a paladin and this is the part where you run… or you will die by my blade like these dogs" The gold haired youth said disdainfully and the female oracle cla.s.s members who were all at the bronze realm chuckled lightly.

Hearing this, Andrews face twitched with anger, not only did this man look down on him and dishonor him by commanding him to flee, but he also felt disrespected by the fact that this youth had the guts to flirt right in the middle of a war, in his presence! 

But in the end, he still felt helpless against this youth! His ident.i.ty as a paladin dealt a serious blow on Andrews's confidence which has been acc.u.mulated over the years, leaving Andrew with trembling hands and a shaky resolve.

"These people you call dogs were once my friend, if I should flee and not avenge their death, wouldn't that make me a coward?" Andrew tightened his grip on the black dagger while he spoke. Tiny black clouds began gathering around him once again and his bloodshot eyes released a terrifying red glow.

"So you choose to die then? Isn't it better to flee and live to fight another day? Or just go somewhere else and kill someone else… It doesn't really matter to me, as long as these ladies are safe, I have no reason to harm you" The youth said.

"Hehehe… I see you are more of a coward than a warrior… since you have killed my friends, I am obliged to take your life as well… I, the disciple of the greatest death mage of all time will end you here and now!" Andrew was now completely shrouded in darkness and he dashed towards the gold hair colored youth at a terrifying speed, leaving only black trails behind.

"You dare refuse my kind offer? Die then!" The youth roared furiously and released an arc of pure golden energy.

Wooosh!

The approaching black clouds suddenly faded as if it was just a dream. Within the empowering domain set up by Kira and Kin, Andrew blended perfectly with the darkness, appearing behind the youth, striking at him viciously with the black dagger.

Peng!

"Darkness can never escape light!" The youth sneered after he successfully parried the attack.

Holy prayer: Bind!

A golden magic array appeared beneath him and the dark cloud and golden chains emerged and wrapped around the black clouds preventing it from escaping.

Holy prayer: Divine strike!

His golden broadsword released a divine golden light as it was swung ruthlessly at the black cloud, leaving behind numerous after images. This attack was obvious a killing blow and it effortlessly pierced the black cloud, splitting it in half. While the ladies rejoiced the golden-haired youth frowned, he didn't meet any resistance and he was sure Andrew had left the black cloud before he attacked.

"It's over!"

Andrews's voice echoed from all corners of the battlefield, confusing the golden-haired youth. Soon darkness gathered around the youth, preventing him from seeing even the female oracles he sort to protect. He could not even see his own feet. 

Xiu!

Xiu!

Each strike barely missed the mark but it always left a shallow cut wound on the young paladin's body. If this young paladin wasn't so skilled he would have been killed by the first attack which was aimed at the throat. Even Andrew was stunned by this, he expected this playboy from a n.o.ble family to only possess the power of a paladin but lack the skill to use it properly but to his greatest surprise, the young paladin was more experienced and skilled than even himself. He finally realized how this spoilt youth was able to kill four silver level werewolves, all alone.

"I have had enough of this! Holy prayer: Purging light!"

The youth's body brightened greatly and divine light flowed out of his body, spamming close to ten meters wide, clearing the darkness in one go!

"Aaaaah!!!" Andrew's scream was heard as his body flew back, crashing on the floor and rolling a few times before he stopped. 

His body was covered with burns as if he suffered from a fire attack, but this time golden aura diffused from the injuries. Blood flowed down the corners of his lips as he struggled to get on his feet, barely holding on to the black dagger as inspected cut wounds on the body of the youth only to find out the wounds were healing and the death aura which evaded his body had already been purged.

"Holy prayer: Cure…" The youth muttered.

He felt a warm energy flow through his body and his injuries vanish. The youth confidently walked towards the defeated Andrew, supporting the magic broadsword with his shoulder as he approached.

"In the end… You lost like the others… light will always overcome darkness… It's just a rule of nature that should not be overlooked." The youth said with a hint of pride in his voice.

"Hehehe… I don't know how a playboy like you managed to receive such holy magic and I don't really care… To think you still have the strength to spurt out c.r.a.p in the middle of a battle you court death boy… And who said evil can never overcome good? The last time I checked, My master defeated the life mage in the battle to kill the former king Robert… would it be too shocking if I defeat you in the same manner?" Andrew sneered.

"Yes…" The young paladin was angered by Andrew's words, so he just gave the kid a straight answer.

"Then get ready to be shocked!" Andrew retorted with a vicious smile on his face.
