The Annihilator: Killer Of Gods

From the darkness, is a huge majestic-looking Tiger, Its sleek, muscular body is covered in pristine white fur adorned with intricate, glowing tribal patterns that pulse with a soft blue luminescence.

Its eyes burn with a fiery red intensity, contrasting sharply against its snowy coat, and its sharp fangs and claws appear sharp and can be sliced through the toughest of armors.

The tiger's presence was overwhelming, exuding a powerful aura that filled the hall. Muscles rippled beneath its sleek fur, and its movements were both graceful and intimidating.

It stood tall and regal, a majestic embodiment of strength and nobility.

Karsha couldn't help but marvel at the creature's beauty and power. The white tiger's aura was almost tangible, radiating an energy that made the air around it intensely hum.

Every step it took was deliberate and controlled, showcasing its dominance and grace.

"Who... who are you?" Karsha asked, his voice a mix of awe and confusion, as well as apprehension. The beast before him was dangerous, way more dangerous than even the King.

The white tiger's eyes locked onto Karsha's, and he felt a strange connection as if the beast could see into his very soul.

"I am Lunar Sabre, the seventh guardian of the Celestial Trinx Core and a loyal servant of the Divine General, the great Crusader," the tiger spoke, its voice resonating deeply within Karsha's mind.

"I have awaited your return for centuries, My Lord."

Karsha's heart raced as he tried to comprehend what was happening. The temple, the formation, this majestic beast—all of it felt like a dream.

"Why do you call me 'My Lord'?" he asked, struggling to make sense of the situation.

Lunar Sabre looked at him for a moment and then said, "It seems you are still asleep. I am sorry, my Lord, but this servant cannot reveal more. It was ordered by you after all."

Karsha sighed, realizing he had stumbled upon another secret he couldn't unravel. 'At least I know the Crusader is involved. That bastard sure has his hands in many things concerning my life,' Karsha thought inwardly.

"Tell me, how do you know I am the Crusader or this Divine General you speak of?" Karsha asked.

"You wield the Enigma. Only those with the seed are destined to wield it," Lunar Sabre replied.

Karsha furrowed his brow at the mention of the seed again. He looked at his sword, the Enigma, feeling its familiar weight in his hand. He wanted to ask more, but he already suspected the answers.

Instead, he shrugged and decided not to press the issue further. 'I guess I'll have to figure it out as I go,' he muttered.

Karsha gazed at the tiger, then asked,

"You said you are the Seventh Guardian. Can you tell me who these guardians are and, more importantly, who you are?"

Lunar Sabre's eyes softened with a touch of sadness as she began to speak.

"We, the Seven Guardians, were chosen to protect the Celestial Trinx Core from any who sought to misuse its power. Each of us was endowed with unique abilities and sworn to defend the core of our lives. Our purpose was clear: to maintain the balance and protect the world from the darkness that threatened to engulf it."

Lunar Sabre began to recount the tale of the guardians and their fateful battle against the Bloodhorn Panther Demon and its legion.

The Blacktail Lightning Fox King, the first guardian was a swift and cunning beast, able to move with the speed of lightning and strike with deadly precision.

It commanded the storms and could summon lightning to devastate its enemies. In the battle, the Fox King used its speed and agility to outmaneuver the Bloodhorn Panther Demon's forces, striking down countless foes before falling in a blaze of lightning.

The Sky Serpent, the second Guardian was a majestic creature that soared through the skies, its scales shimmering with the colors of the heavens.

It controlled the winds and the weather, creating fierce storms and tornadoes to scatter the enemy.

The Sky Serpent fought valiantly, its aerial maneuvers disrupting the legion's formations, but ultimately, it was overwhelmed by the sheer numbers of the enemy and fell.

The Guardian Behemoth Elephant, the third guardian was a massive creature, its strength unmatched by any other.

It could summon the power of the earth, creating barriers and quakes to hinder the advance of the demon's forces.

The Behemoth held the line, its sheer presence a rampart against the attack, but even its mighty strength was not enough to withstand the relentless attack forever. It also fell, but not before sending thousands of their enemies

The Flame Hawk Phoenix, the fourth Guardian was a symbol of rebirth and destruction, its fiery wings leaving trails of flame in the sky.

It could manipulate fire, creating infernos to incinerate the enemy. The Phoenix's flames scorched the battlefield, purging the land of the demon's corruption.

However, it was ultimately consumed by its own fire in a desperate final act to protect the core.

The Earthshaker Gorilla, the fifth guardian was a being of raw power, its fists capable of shattering mountains. It commanded the rocks and the earth, creating massive boulders to crush its foes.

The Gorilla stood as a living fortress, its strength and resilience a testament to its role as a guardian. But even the Earthshaker Gorilla could not hold back the tide forever and was eventually brought down by the relentless assault.

The Tempest Horned Lion, the sixth was a majestic beast with a mane like a storm cloud and horns that crackled with electricity.@@novelbin@@

It could control both water and electricity, creating devastating tempests to obliterate the enemy. The Lion fought with ferocity, its roars echoing like thunder across the battlefield.

In the end, it fell in a glorious storm, taking many of the demon's forces with it.

And then there was Lunar Sabre, the white tiger, and the last of the guardians. She had the power of the moon and the stars, her aura calming yet formidable.

Lunar Sabre fought with unmatched grace and power, her claws and teeth tearing through the enemy. During the battle when the guardians are all going all out, the night comes and Lunar is blessed by the moon giving her the power to fight back.

Despite being the last and weakest among them, the night became his domain but also his curse, He witnessed the fall of his comrades, each giving their lives to protect the core.

Despite his struggles, he still failed to change the tide of the battle so all his comrades fell leaving him alone.

As Lunar Sabre finished his tale, Karsha felt a deep sense of reverence and sadness for these mighty creatures who had given their lives to protect something so precious.

"You have all sacrificed so much," he said quietly, his voice filled with respect.

Lunar Sabre nodded solemnly. "Yes, we tried. But in the end, failed"

"What are you talking about? From what you've said and what I've discovered since getting here, it seems you didn't fail. The core is safe, and the invaders are pushed out in the end. It's just sad that so many of you had to die," Karsha said, shaking his head.

This beast seemed overly emotional to him. "Tell me, what happened in the end? Since you're alive, I'm sure you did something crucial."

"It's true, I did do something, but it wasn't much. In the end, after sacrificing everything, I still placed the core in harm's way," the tiger beast said, shaking its head.

"During the critical moment when Bloodhorn was gaining the upper hand, I tapped into the essence of the moon and sacrificed my Lunar Innate Body to seal the core. I succeeded with the core's help. However, only after sealing it did I discover that I'd also sealed Bloodhorn and ten of its generals with the core," Lunar said, sounding disappointed.

"Let me get this straight. You're disappointed because you sealed the ones that came after the core?" Karsha couldn't believe it. The answer was clear, but the beast couldn't see it.

"You made no mistake, Lunar. It was the core that sealed those bastards." Knowing why this happened, Karsha quickly comforted the tiger beast.

"The core, which I believe was in a mechanism, was being sealed. This means she would be able to replenish her energy. So before the seal took hold, she picked the strongest enemies and sealed herself with them. This way, she can siphon their energy to replenish herself."

Lunar's eyes brightened upon hearing this.

"But that's bad. Now that you're here, you'll have to retrieve the core. Those are your instructions. However, immediately after I lift the seal, the demon monsters will also awaken.

It's been thousands of years, so their strength might have dropped, but the last time we fought, Bloodhorn was a Tier 13 Dark World Boss and the ten generals were Tier 12 Great World Bosses.

"It has been many years, so even if their strength drops, they might just lose their class and maybe two realms. So Bloodthorn will be somewhere around a Tier 10 Calamity Mutant."

Karsha took a deep breath, hearing the terrifying ranks and classes of the monsters protecting what he was after.

After Hans told him the secret behind the war between the beasts of Trinx and Bloodhorn, Karsha knew he was bound to face them someday. Now, learning they were way beyond his capabilities, he just couldn't believe it.

"I might not be strong enough to face them now, but I will be in a few years. I can always come back," Karsha said.

His current strength would do nothing against them. But once he broke through to higher realms and formed more cores, he would be able to contend with them.

With his current strength, although he could fight a Tier 9 Calamity Mutant when two or more showed up, he would have to run or die.

"I'm sorry, my lord, but that's not possible. The moment you stepped into this world, the seal started to undo. If you leave, it won't be long before it completely breaks. When that happens, the core will be in danger." Karsha's heart skipped a beat hearing that.
