[Host, would you like to collect the Lightning Magic attribute?]
'Collect!'
Kenichi didn't hesitate and immediately answered the system.
With Kenichi's command, the Lightning Magic attribute beneath Laxus over there turned into a golden tadpole-like rune and, along with the other attributes, converged towards Kenichi.
After all those attributes merged into Kenichi's body, the various data on the virtual screen in front of him began to jump.
Kenichi directly ignored the Magic Power and Combat Power attributes, focusing his gaze on the [Lightning Magic] in the Magic attribute column.
'Lightning Magic, huh?'
Kenichi thought to himself, then clenched his fist and activated the Lightning Magic attribute.
The next second, a golden lightning appeared on Kenichi's fist.
As Kenichi slightly increased his magical power, the golden lightning became increasingly fierce.
Erza, Gray, and the others didn't see the golden lightning on Kenichi's hand.
Their attention was entirely focused on Laxus over there.
They saw that after using his Lightning Magic to paralyze Gajeel, Laxus delivered another fierce attack onto Gajeel.
Bang-
Taking the heavy blow, Gajeel's body shot backward like a cannonball, finally crashing into a wall not far behind him.
Instantly, the wall shattered.
And Gajeel's body was buried under a pile of rubble.
Laxus didn't stop there.
"Phantom Lord scum! It's because of you people that others look down on my guild!"
By now, Laxus was almost in a state of madness.
The magical power within his body surged madly, and the golden lightning densely gathered around him, emitting a dazzling golden light.
Natsu, Gray, and Lucy, feeling the terrifying magical power on Laxus, were all extremely shocked.
Although they were also very angry about Gajeel destroying Fairy Tail and injuring Jet and Droy-
Seeing Laxus now wanting to brutally kill Gajeel, they felt somewhat unable to bear it.
Seeing the violent magical power on Laxus, Erza's pretty face changed, and she immediately spoke up to stop him:
"Laxus, stop!"
"He has already joined Fairy Tail. That means Master has agreed..."
Before Erza could finish, the ferocious Laxus directly launched an attack on her.
"Shut up!"
Laxus's hand, filled with golden lightning, violently swung towards Erza.
A pillar of golden lightning charged towards Erza at an astonishing speed.
"Not good! Erza can't use her Requip Magic!"
Lucy, seeing the enraged Laxus even attacking Erza, her pretty face changed immediately, and she shouted.
At this moment, Erza watched the golden lightning rapidly enlarge in her vision, her face full of gravity.
Under normal circumstances, she would definitely not fear this strike from Laxus.
But now, because of Kenichi's Spatial Magic, she couldn't use her Requip Magic.
Rip-
Just as the golden lightning was about to swallow Erza, Kenichi flashed in front of her.
Kenichi casually waved his hand, and the violent golden lightning assaulting them was torn apart, instantly vanishing without a trace.
"He blocked Laxus's magic with his bare hands?"
Gray, seeing Kenichi so easily neutralize Laxus's Lightning Magic, had an expression full of astonishment.
Gray knew very well how strong Laxus was.
Every time Natsu challenged Laxus to a fight, he was instantly defeated.
In Gray's view, Laxus was as strong as a monster.
Gray knew Kenichi was also very strong…
If Kenichi had used some magic to block Laxus's strike, Gray could understand.
But Kenichi had blocked Laxus's magic with his bare hands.
This greatly shocked Gray.
What Gray didn't know was that Kenichi hadn't blocked Laxus's Lightning Magic with his bare hands.
He had simply used the Lightning Magic attribute he had just collected from Laxus to offset Laxus's Lightning Magic.
"Kenichi!"
Erza, seeing the golden lightning still coiling around Kenichi's hand, asked with concern.
"I'm fine."
Kenichi looked at Laxus and responded to Erza behind him.
While Erza and Kenichi were talking, Laxus over there, his face ferocious, fixed his gaze entirely on Kenichi.
Laxus hadn't paid much attention to Kenichi, this newcomer, before.
In his eyes, only the strongest candidates like Mystogan and Gildarts mattered.
He even looked down on Erza.
But now, to Laxus's surprise, this newcomer he hadn't paid attention to had so easily blocked his magic.
This made Laxus feel his authority was being challenged.
"A mere newcomer in the guild can casually block my attack!"
"It seems I need to let you know who the strongest in this guild really is!"
Laxus stared at Kenichi, roared in an angry tone, then directly launched an attack on Kenichi.
"Lightning Fist!"
Laxus's fist, filled with golden lightning, violently slammed into the ground.
The moment Laxus's fist hit the ground, a golden arc of electricity instantly tore through the ground and swept towards Kenichi.
Before the golden lightning could get close, Kenichi pointed his finger in the air.
[Enchantment Magic]
Bzzzt-
The moment Kenichi gave an instruction to the ground, a violent shockwave instantly appeared on the ground.
"..."
Laxus had originally prepared to block Kenichi's strike.
But the moment he was about to act, a feeling of danger rose from the depths of his heart.
This feeling was an instinct accumulated through years of combat.
Upon sensing the danger, Laxus didn't hesitate and immediately used his Lightning Body Magic.
His figure turned into a golden flash of lightning and directly dodged to the side.
The moment Laxus avoided it, the violent shockwave on the ground left a massive trench hundreds of meters long.
"Ah~! Kenichi, are you trying to kill Laxus?!"
Natsu, looking at the huge trench on the ground before him, exclaimed in fear.
And Gray, Erza, and Lucy were already shocked beyond words.
Laxus, who had dodged to the side, hadn't even landed yet. When he saw the trench left by the shockwave on the ground, it was as if he had been jolted awake.
The anger in his heart vanished completely, replaced by the calmness of facing a powerful opponent.
And his face was also covered in shock.
He never expected that this newcomer was actually strong to such an extent!
