The rose guardians moveset always begins with spining their golden spear on top of their heads and then to their waist and then rotate backwards , they are root like beings so they are quite flexible, the spining from head to waist is a slower and weaker but the back spin from waist to head can knock back medium sized enemies
"I'm only 13 and with my height I'm a small sized enemy , so I'll fly away to my next life if I get hit by the back spin but my height is an advantage "
The rose guardian started its spining attack and I rushed towards it and with the flaming katanas , i slashed the waist part of the rose guardian with both katanas from the right side , he wasn't cut in half instead I was only able to cut off one side part of his waist but that's enough
The spining attack didn't stop but because he lost his balance ,he kept spinning even after falling to the side and he just spinned himself off the tree branch and died , the reason for not cutting him in half is simple , if cut in half ,the rose guardians don't die instead they keep hopping and spinning because they're roots and stems and because their height decreased , its easier for their attacks to reach me
The rest of the rose guardians kept hopping and the one's near me began their spining attack , i kept slashing the waist and legs to make them lose their balance , one of them jumped up really high in time and evaded the slash , now an attack was coming from above,in the front there's another rose guardian and behind me two rose guardians are still spinning towards the edge of the tree branch
I took a deep breath and ran forward and did a slide under the rose guardian and cut one of his legs and pulled the other leg to roll him over , the guy from above landed on the rose guardian below and both got entangled
"I'm AWESOME ....how did I even do that ?
After being awesome for moment I looked back at the enemies still hopping towards
" I can't rush forward without clearing my back but these guys are entangled and too heavy for me to push them ....."
As I was about to do something crazy , one of the rose guardians started spinning, I tried to parry it but it was too strong and one of my katana got knocked out of my hand and fell down the tree branch
" Why did I even try that .....sigh"
I took a few steps back and waited for the rose guardian to end it's spinning animation , then I had an idea
" What if they all spin together and push themselves off the branch ?, that should be possible in reality "
Although the thought was good , it will be very chaotic , I ran through all the enemies without looking back until I reached the end of the branch , they started spinning as soon as they saw me and after looking back... it worked , they're pushing themselves off the tree like Beyblades
...ā¦After a while of spining...ā¦
" Only three left now .....or One ?"
The last three enemies started hopping towards me together, somehow during the Beyblade showdown these three got entangled and the middle guy is spinning two rose guardians on each end of his golden spear and other two got entangled in a way they can't move theirs arms and legs
I took a firm stance holding the flaming katana , took a deep breath and threw a kunai on the middle guy, the kunai had talismans tied to it , I ran towards the rose guardian trio and the guy in the middle started spinning and I ran back while activating the talisman
It's not a powerfull talisman but the small scarlet flames burn very fast, it's like the fire is eating things, it set the middle guy on fire and as he was spinning , he was being eaten by flames , soon he disappeared leaving behind his friends , still stuck to his spear and unable to move
I ran towards them , stepped on one the roots , jumped onto the spear and.... Slipped, only to fall down gracefully, I closed my eyes, took a deep breath, stood up and walked back some distance and ran towards them again
This time I stepped on the roots and instead of jumping I climbed the roots of the left guy first and cut his head of and from his shoulders I jumped towards the right guy and cut his head of mid air , I landed smoothly
" Not bad for a first try " I said while smiling happily
took one the rose heads and cut in between the petals ...nothing
I thought there would be something that's controlling them like a brain or some random soul stuck inside but it's just petals
I sat down and then just fell on my back to lay down
" Not bad for my first real battle in this world but... Too many mistakes , I'm only thirteen so my body is very ....un athletic, I don't have a good control on my spirit energy , I have no sword techniques, my arms don't have any muscle ... So no real strength either, my enemies were stronger than me but mindless and restricted to only a few moves , I used too much time thinking about strategies and tricks ... Damn too many negatives "
"My only real strength right now are talismans, they're really strong but in a one on one battle it will be hard to use them , what if I get caught up in my own blast?,I guess I'll have to go to school....well i have a wife in my class so that's a positive thing , I have a big brother and more elder cousins in the school, that's a bonus , hell I can become the headmasters disciple and gain a good reputation , I'm a handsome noble , talented individual , rich , I can make a harem, I can play political games and mess with the villains , once I finish eating the eight dragon hearts I can just eat , sleep , repeat ..... Yessss think positive, let's beat this boss first and leave the problems for the future self , if he can't even deal with these small things , he should just kill himself
