The Guardian gods-Chapter 84

The bear fearing its end roared out loud, with a magical light surrounding it, and soon after in the eyes of Olaf and the hunters, a replica of the bear appeared in the circle. The replica immediately swipes at one of the hunters, but nothing happened as the claw went through the human showing that it was just an Illusion. Olaf's eyes narrowed as he realized they were dealing with more than a simple huge bear. "Hold your ground, everyone! It seems this bear has some tricks up its fur." The bear using the small chance it created rushed out from the circle, this seemed to be the last straw from the flame wielders as they all fell to the group looking drained. Olaf realizing that this was bad, wanted to ask the hunters to retreat when from nowhere a golden arrow flew towards head of the bear, easily getting into it and coming out from the other side. Olaf and the other hunters stood astounded as Finn walked out from his hiding while holden onto a beautifully crafted arrow, it can see that the hand use to draw the arrow was sucked dry like a mummy, but Finn didn't seem to care as he walked towards the bear while muttering "I don't want to die" The bear figure halted after the arrow went through its head before falling with a large thud to the ground. Olaf and the hunters immediately let go of their weapon before they are sucked dry as they all ran towards Finn. "Finn, you saved us" Olaf and the hunter screamed out as they ran to Finn, but Finn showed no outward reaction as he bypassed them while walking towards the bear and pointing at it while looking at everyone with a crazed eyes "This prey is mine alone"

This halted the hunters as they looked at Finn, "It seems you have lost it Finn, that belongs to Bj?rn not you" One of the hunters spoke out.

"Exactly, this is my offering to my Him. I killed this prey, so I am the one to offer this prey to him" Finn said as he raised his bow showing that he was ready to defend the bear. "Wow, Hold on a minute Finn. We agree this prey is your and you can offer it to Bj?rn yourself but what if you could offer this bear and more to him, you work together with us we can find prey that will greatly satisfy him" Olaf said while sincerely looking at Finn. Finn seems to like Olaf word as he took his bow down while putting his head down in thought, " Indeed, if I find more and stronger prey for him. It will greatly please him to keep me alive" Finn nodded to show his agreement. Meanwhile Olaf was thinking to himself " I thought so, He's doing this for a chance to survive and keep his life" "Okay, let's take back this bear to the settlement since it won't be safe leaving it here for any creature that comes across it" Olaf said as the hunters, even though tired all worked together to carry the huge bear corpse back. That was how, Olaf, Finn and the hunters worked together to find creatures, while downing them and bring them back to the settlement, the sun quickly fell turning day into night, a few shadows can be seen carrying something big while slowly but steadily walking to the Bj?rn settlement. As soon as the shadows got into the light coming from the camp light in the settlement, a scary sight came into view, with a bunch of dried mummies looking human carrying a huge tiger corpse while walking towards a small heap that can be shown to be the corpse of killed animals. After the mummies dropped the tiger and was about to walk back into the forest, a booming voice came from Bj?rn tent. "That's enough, rest and prepare yourselves for the ritual" Hearing the words, Olaf, Finn and the small men left all dropped down like puppet no longer held by a thread, seeing there tired figured the women rushed towards with each carrying a steaming bowl in hand. Olaf and the men didn't even say a word as they downed the content in the bowl not minding the scorching heat as they roared out "More please" The women didn't mind as more food and drinks were offered to Olaf and his men so they were full but still couldn't move as they all looked up to the night sky. "We survived; we really survived all that" Olaf said out loud to no one but himself. No one responded but chuckles could be heard from the group of men looking up to the skies. So, a loud snoring sound came from the group showing that they all fell asleep. The women and other looked at them sleeping and left them there since they have been overworking themselves all day. "Olaf, wake up" Olaf in his sleep could hear someone screaming out his name and at the same time shaking him. Soon Olaf opened his eyes to see a group of people hovering over him "What is it" Olaf asked with anger evidence in his voice. "Bj?rn requested we all get into the pool immediately "One of the hunters who was awake by this time spoke up. Hearing the word Bj?rn, Olaf immediately stood up while pushing everyone aside while muttering to himself "You could have started with that" Soon Olaf and the hunter got to the pool that was dug out, because no right procedure was followed the pool was dirty and muddy, but that didn't change nothing as people was filling up the pool, Olaf even noticed that someone one of them was those they had captured. "Stop gawking and get into the pool" Olaf and the hunter heard the familiar scary voice speaking from behind them. Not even bothering to look back they all jumped into the pool. Meanwhile Finn stood his ground as he looked back to Bj?rn who was now also staring at him with an amused expression on his face, "You disobeyed my words" Bj?rn asked while walking closer towards Finn. "I don't want to die; I don't want to die" Finn kept muttering to himself as Bj?rn got closer to him. When Bj?rn got closer Finn immediately noticed the height difference as he had to look up to be able to meet Bj?rn dark red eyes. Immediately kneeling, Finn desperately thought of ways to save himself, so he spoke out loud with shaky voice "Bj?rn please I don't want to die, I am a lot more useful to you alive than dead" "Ask them, if not for me they won't have made it back to deliver all those animals you requested, I even had the most kills. Please Bj?rn" Finn cried out loud with his body shaking as tears and snort left his face. Meanwhile Bj?rn heard Finn word and looked over to Olaf and the hunters who immediately took their heads down, acknowledging the truth in Finn's word. "Humans and their terrifying potential" Bj?rn thought to himself as he looked back down to the kneeling Finn. "I wasn't really expecting them to get back the required amount, yet they did even though it came with a price" Bj?rn thought to himself while looking at the damaged body of Finn and Olaf. Finn in his kneeling position saw Bj?rn's feet walking away from him, but before he could raise his head. he heard Bj?rn voice "Get in the pool, if your result after the ritual satisfies me then you get to live" Hearing that, Finn wanted to jump and scream out loud, but he quietly stood up with his head down and got into the pool. Bj?rn walked toward the heap of dead animals where a small ritual ground had been set up with fire sticks laid out in different positions. Swiftly, Bj?rn, with his axe, took off the heads of the animals. At the same time, he cut his hand, causing thick purple blood to flow down to the ground as he walked to the centre of the small ritual ground. From the centre where he stood, red light bloomed from his feet as he started muttering unknown words. The more and louder he spoke, the brighter the light became. As for the people in the pool, they immediately began holding onto their ears when Bj?rn started speaking the unknown words. The louder Bj?rn spoke, the more discomforted they felt, and soon the pool was filled with the screams of humans desperately scratching their ears. The red light under Bj?rn's feet soon took the shape of a magical circle, where a small whirlpool formed, causing the blood from the animals to be sucked into it. Soon after, the small whirlpool began spewing out purple blood, which flowed toward the pool from a small drainage connecting to it. As soon as the purple blood mixed with the muddy water, it began spreading out, and soon the entire pool turned purple. As for Bj?rn, he immediately stopped talking when the whole pool's colour changed, and his wound immediately healed. The red light and whirlpool began dimming and closing out.
