Chapter 312 - Rygintarth

Inside the small gold-covered lit room two figures were plopped down on the floor, heaving heavily. Around them, the traces of a battle of grand proportions could be seen. Several smaller heaps of rubble piling up and forming small miniature hills. Around them, cracked floor tiles, craters of all depths and sizes. 

In the end, just from the clues, it was unclear who won their clash. Both figures were mostly unharmed, and whilst the Guardian's armor's shattered pieces were laid across the room spread out randomly, his body was merely glistening with beads of sweat, similar to Aiden.

"I have to admit…" The guardian spoke between breaths. "...I have not expected that we would be so evenly matched."

"Heh, it was a first to me too…" The boy responded with a much calmer look and a satisfied smile stretched across his face. "This was quite satisfying…. Old man."
