Chapter 86 The Cradle of Light and Darkness Fighting Fairy IV - The Spoiler
——Transferred to "Sirius Island" in the center of the sea of trees, in front of the two wordless monuments.
When Irene and Erza used weapons to communicate between mother and daughter, Urrutia replaced her mother to 'educate' her two incompetent apprentices, and Brandish accepted the training with the help of Wendy.
At the same time as the severe 'trial', starting with Natsu's 'Roar of the Fire Dragon', the battle between 'fairy' and 'demon' also began.
The blast of flames swept across the earth, the giant beast's powerful arm launched a charge, and the thunder and lightning woven with words and cards flashed in the air.
Then, the most reliable man struck a "shattering" fist that could destroy everything.
Facing the legendary 'devil', everyone was ready to exert one hundred percent of their strength.
It's just that this time, the "goblins"'s invincible tricks didn't seem to have the desired effect.
…
"...our attack...disappeared in front of her?!"
Holding up the card in her hand, Kana shed a cold sweat on her forehead when she saw that the magic didn't work.
After a period of siege, they had consumed a lot of magic power, but the black-winged girl over there was still standing unscathed, with a calm look as if she was saying 'What's wrong, is this the end?'.
Whether it was physical impact or energy-based magic, it was eliminated without even being able to touch the opponent's sides.
"No...it's not disappearing...that should be her magic."
Philide, the dark writing mage who is considered one of the most powerful among the younger generation, quickly noticed something strange, and the traces left on the ground fully proved the fact that they had attacked.
That's right, their magic was weakened by Zera's "Gluttony" to the point where they no longer needed defense before hitting it.
With an ability that can affect even the "Dragon King", it is easy to interfere with the attacks of these new generations.
("Crush", which is a super-advanced magic, can counteract it... Is the "demon" of "Book of Zeref" so strong?!)
Stepping back to stand still, Gildarts clenched his fists in surprise.
This is also the first time he has fought against these "demons" with special abilities. Judging from the current situation, both sides should be in a trial stage.
And judging from the other party's appearance, he didn't take it seriously at all.
(…Tsk…I don’t know why you chose the battlefield on our guild’s holy land…)
Keeping his eyes firmly on the "Star Tome" in Zera's hand, Gildarts felt that he had found the key to breaking the situation.
It's just that sometimes, plans can't keep up with changes.
…
(Did you notice...)
After all, he is the one who can carry out the "Century Mission" alone, and Makarov has high hopes for him.
Compared with the younger generation who have not yet grown up, Gildarts, who is already at the forefront of this era in terms of experience and talent, found Zella's 'weakness' in just a few rounds of fighting.
In other words, she exposed it deliberately.
According to the agreement between Zera and Makarov, although it was a trick to lure the 'demon' out of his cave, this time, she also served as the examiner for the S-class certification exam for the little devils.
If you want to become an S-class mage, you need more than just strong strength. Insight and intelligence gathering ability are one of the key factors to measure.
In other words, except for Gildas, who was originally S-level, all the remaining examinees failed.
In terms of strength alone, Urrutia and Brandish, who are about the same age as them, are obviously superior. Even Wendy, if she is determined to fight, she may not lose to her now after being guided by Irene.
Natsu.
If this continues, Zella will not be able to 'leave' with peace of mind.
Compared to "Witch's Poem", which was formed with a purpose and then disbanded when the time came, this guild, which was co-founded with Mavis and inherited the ideas of the two, also has a special meaning for Zella.
Now that "Fairy Tail" has become the number one guild in the mainland, it has no "power", especially after its "opponent" "Ghost Ruler" has been disbanded.
From Makarov's perspective, he is probably aware of this.
After all, only by understanding your own 'weakness' can you take steps towards becoming stronger.
In this land protected by the magic power of the "Sirius Tree", people with the Fairy Tail crest will not be seriously injured. So, just make them lose their ability to fight.
Therefore, she will not show mercy.
The huge magic power belonging to the star spirits began to gather, and the air began to vibrate.
——『Meteor Blade』!
With an expressionless expression, he raised his palms and swiped towards the void in front of him, and the silver blade of light quickly destroyed everything it came into contact with.
"--Danger!!!"
Feeling this terrifying energy, Gildarts could not continue to wait for an opportunity to find a flaw to deliver a winning blow, and rushed in front of everyone regardless of his own safety.
He knew very well that the little devils would never survive being hit by such an attack.
(Is this the end...)
It didn't matter what happened to him, at least he had to save the little devils behind him.
(It actually ended in this way... I'm sorry, old man...)
With such determination, Gildarts opened his hands to welcome the coming destruction.
But things seemed to have once again exceeded the big man's expectations.
The silver blade, which was enough to split the earth into two, passed over the heads of everyone, and instead flew towards the sea of trees behind them that merged with the island.
——The time goes back slightly before the battle begins.
Within the Kingdom of Fiore, in a mountainous area not far from the "Sea of Vasi Trees".
"……His Majesty."
"……Why."
"...Suddenly changed direction."
The young man who danced and swung his arms in poses, had a weird reddish-brown hairstyle, a horizontal scar in the center of his face, and carried a disk of twelve swords on his back asked the black-haired boy next to him.
"Haha, God Selene, you should have noticed the change just now."
With a chuckle, the black-haired boy turned around and walked slowly towards a certain direction he felt.
"……says."
"...the white light from before."
Finally he stopped what he was doing, and the young man who followed him naturally saw the dazzling light that had just flashed across the sky.
"Hmm... I didn't expect that the caster of the magic just now seems to be around here."
"Moreover, the 'thing' I have been looking for was delivered to us."
When he mentioned a certain 'thing', a red light flashed in the black-haired boy's eyes.
"……Yeah."
Once again assuming an embarrassing posture, the auburn-haired young man made an oath to the person in front of him.
"……So."
"...as a token of sincerity in joining His Majesty's empire."
