Pillars of fire erupt from the floor,
hitting the crocodile squarely on its abdomen. It lets out a deafening roar.
Its abdomen is indeed its weak spot after all – uncovered with the crocodile’s
ultra-hard crystallite scale. Now! Seeing
that the crocodile is weakened and groggy, Robert and Sheena immediately attack
it together. Robert reinforces his kiliji blade with fire aura, slides down between
the crocodile’s four legs and strikes its abdomen again with Rising Dragon, the fire-reinforced Uppercut Slash. At the same time,
Sheena’s flying Dancing Scimitar, also
reinforced with fire, hits Jokul on its head, only to be deflected again by its
thick hide. Robert is surprised for a moment on hearing a resounding clang, clang when his kiliji and
Sheena’s scimitar hit Jokul.
Metal!
This monster is a golem!
The giant crocodile is in pain, it stomps
forwards, backwards, side-to-side to shake the pain off. Robert quickly moves
away so he won’t get trampled by its feet like an unfortunate fellow huntress
who tried to hit the abdomen too, but missed and got crushed. A life is taken,
again.
As Robert arrives on a safer spot, he
shouts to his comrades, ‘Careful! This thing is a golem! It’s made of some kind
of alloy; our mediocre weapons can’t cut through it! We must destroy its
insides!’
A thought comes into Sheena’s mind. Wait, if it’s a golem, a spirit must be
dwelling inside it! It has a mind of its own, not programmed, but magically
invoked! Now it’s time for me to do what I do best!
Sheena boldly runs towards the crocodile
and swiftly comes in front of the crocodile’s head. Then she somersaults to
avoid its jaws, her eyes glows, and she stares into Jokul’s eye, transferring
her instruction mentally to it. Attack
the dragon. Attack the dragon. Attack the dragon. The giant crocodile
pauses, it’s as though in a trance. Apparently it has a soul embedded in it – a
gavial’s soul. Gavial is the true name for were-crocodiles. They are
thaumaturgy-engineered humans who have crocodile heads, torsos and tails but
retain their human hands and feet so they can stand straight.
Totally hypnotized by Sheena, Jokul turns
and looks around, and finds Vyr the dragon fighting fiercely with Hernan, Ney,
Agustina and many others. The giant crocodile rushes to the red dragon at once,
springs up and bites the dragon’s foot while it is flying in mid-air.

The dragon roars, gets furious, and with its beastly instinct sweeps Jokul away with its tail with no avail. Maddened by its fellow guardian’s betrayal, Vyr attacks by breathing fire on Jokul. And then a fight breaks between these two mighty guardians. Feeling safe at last, Hernan says to Sheena, ‘Whatever you do back there, lady, I thank you.’
Sheena responds, ‘You better pray that I’ll
be in no condition to apply it on you too.’
Hernan doesn’t answer, he just rushes away
to give assistance to his fellow hunters to fight the other three guardians. As
he arrives on the scene, Hernan sees that only Iris and Kyflynn are fighting
Borg the giant bear. An elf guide, a champion has fallen! There lies Orlevant,
not far from where Hernan is standing now, totally crushed beyond healing, with
Andreas Marvellini and the Valanisian spy kneeling beside him, shaking their
heads with regret in their faces.
What actually happened was, Orlevant and
Iris attacked Borg wantonly with drills of Typhoon,
which proved to be quite effective. Confident that the attack would destroy
the bear, Orlevant jumped above the bear’s head to deliver a final drilling
blow of Firestorm Devastator, but the
bear’s paw caught him. And Borg rewarded Orlevant with a Bear Hug for overconfidence, no matter how fast he moved. Borg
crushed Orlevant’s insides, broke all his bones, and slammed the unfortunate
elf captain on the floor, killing him instantly.
Hernan delivers his jumping, spinning
multiple-amplified, water-based uppercut thrusts, Albatross Embraces the Clouds towards Borg, and misses the target
by a few inches. Then cleverly, he steps on Borg’s body and uses it as a step
to leap away from the brutish giant bear golem. Then suddenly he hears a very
loud, commanding voice.
‘Guardians! Unite as Chimera, now!’
Hernan immediately recognizes the voice. It’s Paliades! He… he commands the guardians!
Nothing is truer than that. The five
guardians stop fighting at once, turn and run to the middle, below the sun,
obeying their master’s order. Now what’s
going on here? Hernan is a bit puzzled and thoughtful. Paliades? He’s the HEIR, the culprit behind all this? And we assisted
him to pass the chambers just to bring him to the sword? Damn! Have I known
that from the start, I would’ve killed him!
As they run, the five guardians transform
their bodies mechanically into strange shapes and break their body parts apart,
yet they are forming themselves to unite into… Chimera!! This Chimera is the
mechanical version of the organic Chimera monster in myths and legends, and
actually, part of the history in Parthenia. It is impossible to kill because it
masters the five elements (water, fire, earth, lightning and wind) at once and
can shoot to any direction it wants. Vyr, Eshmyr and Voltar’s heads with long
necks become Chimera’s three heads. Borg forms himself into Chimera’s torso and
Borg’s head becomes the front side of the torso. Vyr’s wings attach themselves
on the Chimera’s torso as supplements to Voltar’s wings on each side, forming
Chimera’s wings. Vyr and Eshmyr’s bodies become the four legs of Chimera.
Jokul’s head and torso become Chimera’s tail.
And there it is, Chimera, the Chime of Sure
Death, the last guardian of Deathblade,
standing vast and tall. But the guardian is corrupted. Someone’s controlling
it. Paliades controls it as if Chimera is his pet, his toy. Paliades is the
heir!
All heads turn towards Paliades, and all hunters
and champions immediately charge to kill him on the spot. But Chimera immediately
comes near its master, protecting him. The heads begin shooting fire, lightning
and wind blasts to every direction, destroying a few hunters. Eshmyr’s head
with an elongated neck goes down to the floor, and Paliades climbs on it. Paliades
comes down into safety on Chimera’s back. Vyr lowers its head and Chimera stops
its attack, guarding its master from any attack from four directions.
‘Now you may assume that I’m the heir of
Vordac,’ says Paliades. ‘But one thing, you cannot be certain of that until I
have the Deathblade in my hands. Now,
Chimera! Bear me to the sun!’
Chimera’s three heads shriek at the same
time. The wings start flapping, and Chimera starts flying, bearing Paliades
into the sun. None of the hunters can prevent them. The Chimera flies too fast
to be hit by arrows and spells. As Paliades and Chimera are in the sun, the
hunters and other champions can only wait, and some hope that the sun burns
Paliades and Chimera into ashes. But their hopes are none but empty wishes,
because the sun explodes!
