Chapter 72: Playing the 'Divine Comedy' of Destiny - Three Battlefields
Joseph Pola's current mood cannot be described as angry.
As the president of a top guild and a mage who stands at the 'top of the magic world', he has never felt so aggrieved.
The clear and ear-piercing sound of explosions on the lowest floor, and the building shaking from time to time, all indicate that this place is currently facing a 'crisis'.
(...If they dare to attack the Light Guild blatantly, then those "dark" people must be so crazy...)
Seeing the crimson-haired woman in front of him calmly ignoring the oppressive feeling caused by his huge magic power, Joseph was also guessing about her identity.
To be able to appear here quietly, this woman is definitely not a simple character.
But if she was a member of the "darkness", Joseph thought that he should not have received any news.
You must know that secretly, he has secretly supported several dark guilds. It can be said that he takes both black and white.
It would prevent him from receiving the message, unless it was...
"Are you...are you from the Gate of Hades?"
Thinking he had discovered the identity of the visitor, Joseph lowered the brim of his hat and tried his best to calm his thoughts.
The current dark world can be said to be a mess, and only the demon guild standing at the apex of darkness has the strength and courage to attack the light guild with "Holy Ten" as its commander.
"...'Gate to Hades'? Ha...are you talking about the guild composed of His Majesty's toys? How could it be?"
Taking a step forward and tapping the ground with her scepter, the crimson-haired woman seemed to be laughing at being mistaken for someone she disdained.
If the "Underworld Island" hadn't disappeared inexplicably, it would have become their target long ago.
(Gu, you actually said that the demons in Hades are toys?!)
Not to mention his strength, this extremely arrogant courage alone made Joseph feel a lot of pressure.
At the same time, he became even more angry because he was frightened by the other party's "psychological tactics" in a few words.
The sticky and disgusting magic once again permeated the entire corner of the space.
"Do you mean the gossip ends here... Then let me see you, Lord "Ten Holy Magisters"."
"...Only you?"
"certainly."
Facing the dark magic that surrounded her, the crimson-haired woman laughed provocatively again.
"My strength, Aileen Berserion..."
"You will definitely be satisfied."
"——!"
…
Where the law of light cannot reach, the "witches" who have merged into darkness by fate come to judge.
At the same time, when the 'peak showdown' had already begun, the hall of the 'Ghost' headquarters fell into a mysterious silence.
In addition to 'attackers' and 'betrayers', there is now another 'intruder' here.
Although there was a suspicion of a 'sneak attack', as soon as this figure in the mysterious knight costume took action, he directly reduced the number of the top strongman of their guild, the leader of the "Four Elements", Oku Aria, whose strength was evident.
"...Ha! It's Elu——!"
The first one to react was the Tianlong girl standing behind the intruding knight. She seemed to know who the person who covered his face with a helmet was with her unique sense of smell.
But as soon as he finished speaking, he was interrupted by a louder voice.
"No! My name is not Miss Ellu!"
"..."
Not knowing what was going on for a moment, Brandish also guessed the identity of this person from Wendy's reaction and swallowed back the words of thanks she wanted to say.
Seeing that everyone was shocked by her again, the mysterious knight nodded with satisfaction.
"Ahem...I am...yes...that's right! You can just call me Scarlet."
Pretending to cough twice, the knight who called himself "Scarlet" was troubled for a while, and then said the codename that was obviously improvised.
"In addition, I am just passing by and have nothing to do with these people."
"..."
——Who believes it!!!
At this moment, the opinions of the two warring parties were surprisingly synchronized.
(What on earth is this guy here to do...Did Irene tell her the plan...)
Looking at the 'knight' who had saved her with a complicated expression, Brandish remembered that she had parted ways with everyone a few years ago due to 'ideal discord'.
Hmm, maybe like Lucy, 'running away from home' can also be used as a term?
"Okay...are they the enemy?"
"Ah, um..."
Just now he said it didn't matter, but now the knight had naturally walked up to Brandish and started talking to her, and listed the members of the Ghost as enemies.
"NoNoNo! The number of enemies has increased again?!"
"Jubian! How is that guy Aliya?"
"Pattering, pattering...I lost consciousness."
Shaking her head at the other two "Four Elements", the rain girl rushed to Alya's side and her expression became even more serious.
"……cut."
Gajeel, who also saw the fallen Alya and felt something was wrong, curled his lips.
"Oh, do you have time to look elsewhere?"
"You are the one who should be spared, woman! Are you still unwilling to admit it? Your ice is of no use to me!"
The hand-shaped iron rod once again shattered Urrudia's modeling magic, and Gajeel had lost interest in her.
Dealing with it quickly and then looking for the new knight is what Gajeel, a strong man, should do.
"Disappear! Iron Dragon's - ugh!!"
The attack was blocked abruptly, and all the ice that Gajeel had just broken was frozen on his body again.
"You guy!!"
"hehe……"
For Urrutia, the "Ice Shaping Magic" was just something she practiced in order to prove herself beyond someone.
——Lingfeng "Zhuo Ani", in the center of the snow mountain road.
"Haha...haha...it hurts, it hurts..."
The orange-haired middle-aged man with bright eyes and an exaggerated expression kept blowing on his red and swollen wrists.
"It's your own fault."
"Hey! Little girl, are you too cruel?!"
Gildarts expressed strong dissatisfaction with the gloating of the 'undead' in front of him.
I just wanted to touch her to confirm, but I didn't expect that little body to have such terrifying power.
(Hiss... I really can't tell... is he a powerful mage?)
He covered the place where he had just been pinched by the opponent's hand. Although he used magic to clear it, the traces of bruises were still obvious.
"Who asked you to sneak behind me?"
It's okay to be sneaky, but fortunately he wanted to put his hands on her waist, so it was good that he didn't purify her with a "lust" on the spot.
"Also, if you have any questions, can you just ask? If I don't use magic to float, do you think I can walk in such deep snow?"
Knowing the reason for someone's "sexual audacity", the brown-haired girl pointed to the snow covering Gildarts' calves.
If she stepped on it, her waist would be buried directly.
"Forehead……"
"Yeah...haha, sorry, sorry."
Feeling as if his intelligence was being looked down upon, Gildarts had no choice but to laugh and cover up his embarrassment.
(well……)
Looking at this stupid big man, the girl, who had other things to do, was always thinking of ways to drive 'him' away.
Because in the next period of time, this place may not be suitable for "human beings".
Unfortunately, it seems to be too late.
The girl who stopped stiffly on the snow and turned to look at the sky realized that a terrifying creature had just crossed the cordon she had set.
"……What's wrong?"
Finding that his 'companion' was not leaving, Gildarts had no choice but to stop.
"Uncle."
"...?"
"Don't die."
In the next battle, she really can't take care of other people. (To be continued)
