Chapter 46: Brothers wilderness

Amid the ancient Elderwood forest inside the dungeon, the colossal form of the Elderwood Guardian emerged, a living testament to nature's strength and secrets. Arthur and me, bound by the unbreakable bond of brotherhood, stood side by side, our resolve unwavering ready to face this formidable opponent.

With a shared nod we confronted the Elderwood Guardian. The guardian's eyes gleamed with an eerie green light as it roared.

In perfect synchrony, Arthur unsheathed his gleaming blue sword, while I took out playful cloud swinging it around me, an embodiment of sheer power as we charged toward the guardian, our intentions clear.

On the other side Lucy and Ash went to help the others who were burnt by someones spell and hurt from the beast vines attacks, of course Lucy dragging that boy on the ground.

The Elderwood Guardian lashed out with roots and branches towards Lucy and Ash but Arthur's sword danced with the precision of a maestro cutting through them parrying and deflecting the strikes with grace.

Meanwhile, my strength on the three section staff smashed through the guardian's defenses, creating openings for Arthur to exploit.

Our unity and complementary skills were undeniable, Arthur's agility allowed him to evade the Guardian's attacks, while my raw power and destructive attacks crushed its defenses. The cave shook with our combined might.

The Guardian launched an all-out assault, ten of thousands of vines shot towards us at great speed, I stood before Arthur and switched to my dagger lighting it with scarlet flames as I used one of my techniques.

[KAMI CHIGIRI]

A powerful attack of a thousand divine slashes were unleashed upon the vines rendering them into small parts falling to the ground, used after heightening my power and senses to the utmost limit.

And when we thought that we stoped the attack, the elderwood guardian with much speed that he seemed as if he teleported towards us, kicked us with full might might making us go crash into the cave walls like bullets as some parts of it fell on our bodies creating a huge black dust cloud.

"MELIODAS! Damn it!" Lucy threw the unconscious boy to the ground as she was about to start running towards us to help me, and Ash was getting ready to fight the elderwood.

"We're all dead! If those two couldn't kill it then we can do nothing other than wait for our turn!" Elijah was getting scared and nervous seing that even the two monsters couldn't win.

"In this case I have to step in, even if I only have one arm left im still an AA rank adventurer!" A blonde guy with brown eyes and a handsome face spoke, he wears a knight armor and in his left hand is a long sword, but he dosent have his right hand. From the bandages on it, it seems to be freshly amputed. And as he was going to rush forwards...

"Shishishi, look at these guys Note, they think we already lost. They are underestimating us dont you think?" I said walking out of the ruble, rubbing the blood out of my left eyes and forehead with my palm with a excited smile.

*Sigh* "You really love to keep scaring us, huh?" Lucy said.

"I've gotten used to it by now." Ash shrugged it off lifting his shoulders.

"Yeah, let's show everyone here our might." Arthur rubbed blood from the edges of his lips.

"Let's lock in then!" As I said that, a black aura envlopped me as my eyes became black and a black demonic mark appeared on top of my right eye. My injuries started healing slowly.

"Yeah!" He tightly held his sword with a sharp and serious expression, golden runes started appearing all around his body parts and his hair became white.

My demon form unleashed, radiated incredible power and strength. My muscles bulged, and my eyes gleamed with an eerie dark crimson light. This from makes my every movement lightningfast. Flames danced around my body, my aura a searing inferno.

Arthur, his Beast Will in its second phase, emanated an aura of wisdom and authority. His sword, imbued with knowledge, glowed with a soft ethereal light. His senses were heightened, and his mana control was peerless.

The elderwood didn't wait any longer as he waved its huge vines arms towards us from the sky, but bedore hitting us only by centimeters, with synchronized movements, we charged in a blur, almost invisible toward the Guardian.

I unleashed a barrage of lightning fast strikes after switching to the three secrion staff with the support of Amaya, each hit shaking the earth. Arthur's sword danced gracefully, deflecting the Guardian's magic-infused roots.

As the battle raged on, the cave itself seemed to pulse with anticipation. The Guardian fought back with a storm of branches and magic, but my demonic strength smashed through its defenses. Arthur's precise swordplay severed its roots with artful elegance.

I said between strikes. "Arthur, this guardian's power is something else! But we're not backing down!"

Arthur replied, "Right, Meliodas. We've faced worse, each in his path. We can do this!"

Our coordinated attacks were relentless. Arthur's magic infused sword created an intricate dance with my raw power chipping away at the guardian's formidable defenses.

As the battle reached its climax, the Elderwood prepared its ultimate final attack, from the aura coming from it, it could destroy the whole dungeon and other parts, killing everyone here so we had to stop it at any cost.

I put Playful Cloud away as I took my dagger once again, summoning a torrent of purple dark flames engulfing the sword. Arthur's sword on the other hand engulfed with ice.

As the guardian was about unleash its attack, with a radiant burst, we both swung out sword up to the sky.

[HELLS BLAZE]

[ICE AGE]

The right side of the huge 20 meters beast has became mere ashes taken away by the wind, while its left side was frozen completely, if left like that, this ice probably wont melt for hundreds of years.

The cave walls behind the Elderwood guardian, to the left side a 40 meter hole by Arthur's slash, but on the right side there was a 70 meters slash letting the sun rays come in illumination the place, it was created by my attack. The hole I created keeps getting bigger because of hells blaze consuming it.

"J-just what the hell are those kids...?" The blond AA adventurer could only look in awe. "Do I even deserve my AA rank?" He continued, asking himself with a complicated expression, facepalming himself.

Breathing heavily, we shared a triumphant look. The Guardian's power was ours to command, and the mana core of the beast slowly descanded from the sky, landing softly on my palm.

I clapped Arthur's shoulder, "Well done brother. Happy to see you well." I said walking past Arthurs towards the group of people who were protected by Lucy and Ash.

Arthur nodded with a faint smile, following behind me. "Same here!" He said.
