This is a fairly difficult achievement, but you do reach a checkpoint just before you fight him, so that helps ease the sting a bit.

Jump down from your checkpoint most of the way to the right. Lupus Rex will spawn in on the left and start running off at the mouth. You can't be having that, so it's time to embarrass him and take no damage. Once the dialogue is over, he will close the distance on you and attempt to smack you around and call you Susie. As soon as you see him raise his pimp hand, you must tap Y a split second later to get the counter attack. This will likely take practice, so if you miss the counter and take damage, just let him kill you for progress towards your 100 death achievement or pause and reload checkpoint. Once you've got the timing and counter him twice, he usually comes towards you only to flip away to the other side of the screen and shoot a blood ball projectile at you. Hit it back towards him for additional damage or jump it. After that, he'll come back after you with the pimp hand. Counter him successfully one or two more times (usually one), and he'll suddenly highlight in red to enter his second form. He should be close, so as soon as he turns red, crouch and press RB to cast your powerful blast attack (requires a flashing mana bar, which you should still have). He will flip away from you and cast three blood ball projectiles back to back to back. Hit back the first two and jump the third. It's possible to hit back all three, but you're much more likely to take damage from the third one. Continue to perfectly counter his pimp slaps and knock back his blood clots for a couple more rounds and this hard earned achievement is yours. It will take practice, but you'll eventually land the perfect countering run and rejoice in the fact you should never have to earn this achievement again.

This boss has 2 attacks, i vertical slash and a projectile attack, both can be countered for massive damage. Firstly, learn the timing for the counter on the slash, it's much faster than it is for normal enemies you've been fighting but you'll get used to it. Once he is backed into a corner he will jump across the screen, this telegraphs the projectile attack, time the swing right to reflect it.

Repeat this until half health when he enrages, fortunately the timing for the counter has not changed, only his number of projectiles increases from 1 to 3. Again, practice the timing for deflecting them if necessary. Everything else is the same.

TL:DR don't go for light swings, learn to counter and deflect and this one is yours.

This refers to the third guardian, Lupus Rex. Again, the tactics are not complicated.
It’s better to immediately take the ice ax (R3 to the right), because it has maximum damage. As soon as we jump into the arena with this werewolf, it is better to initially jump as far as possible to the right in order to increase the distance with the boss. As soon as the dialogue ends, we immediately hold down to deliver a powerful blow and knock him back a little. We run back a little to the right, deliver a simple one strike in advance. Another retreat/hit, and the boss jumps to the left and throws a red cloud, which we need to hit back at him at the right moment.
At 50% of the boss's HP, the second phase begins - the accelerated boss. As soon as the boss starts to turn red for the first time, we don’t touch him and wait for him to jump over us to the other side. Now you need to concentrate as much as possible on hitting three red clouds in a row (balls/spheres, underline as necessary). To do this, it is better to stand further from the middle, but not close to the edge of the arena, in order to assess the required timing. As soon as all three clouds have been beaten off, we immediately press again and beat the boss. Since the boss now runs faster, it is better to jump to the side when attacking with his claws and deliver one light blow.
I needed 10 pops to calculate tactics and timing. In case of failures, press restart checkpoint, and sooner or later will be yours!
