Chapter 52 - Chapter 52 First Clash With The Oracion Seis

"We're here. Our mission this time is to eradicate the dark guild entrenched here, Dark Unicorn!"

Atop the mountain, Erza stepped forward, looked down at a large Gothic building below, and spoke to Kenichi, Natsu, and the others beside her.

"Dark Unicorn?"

Hearing Erza mention the name, Natsu casually asked.

"Natsu, you should remember, right? That guy named Erigor!" Erza shifted her gaze from the Gothic building to Natsu as she asked.

"Erigor?!"

Natsu showed a thoughtful expression.

Suddenly, he remembered something and said excitedly, "That guy who uses wind magic?"

Back when the guild masters of the legal guilds held a meeting, Erigor went to assassinate them.

He was later discovered by Erza and defeated by Natsu.

"Correct. The Eisenwald Guild that Erigor belonged to, and the Dark Unicorn guild, are both subordinate to a larger dark guild, the Oracion Seis!"

"That guy Erigor was actually a subordinate of the Oracion Seis?"

Natsu looked astonished, then said with excitement, "Then the Oracion Seis must be even stronger, right?"

"I don't know about strong or not. In any case, our immediate task is to eradicate Dark Unicorn!"

"Let's move out!"

With that, Erza led Natsu and Gray towards the Gothic building at the foot of the mountain.

'The Oracion Seis, huh? I'm really looking forward to it!' Kenichi thought to himself, looking down at the Gothic building from his high vantage point.

The members of the Oracion Seis all possessed considerable magical power.

In Kenichi's view, if he could fight the Oracion Seis, the system would definitely drop a lot of Magic Power attributes.

Furthermore, the Oracion Seis had many powerful magics.

Cobra's Poison Dragon Slayer Magic attribute, Midnight's Reflector Magic attribute… these were all attributes Kenichi wanted to obtain.

"Kenichi!"

Just as Kenichi was lost in thought, Erza's voice suddenly sounded by his ear.

Hearing this, Kenichi snapped back to attention and saw that Erza and the others had already reached the foot of the mountain.

Without any hesitation, Kenichi leaped down directly towards the bottom.

"Who's there?"

After Natsu and Gray barged into the Dark Unicorn's stronghold, a large number of mages in the great hall stood up, looking at them with unfriendly expressions.

Upon seeing the Fairy Tail's symbols on Natsu and Gray, one mage shouted, "They're mages from Fairy Tail!"

"Attack!"

Natsu and Gray didn't say much either… they charged forward and started fighting.

"Fire Dragon's Iron Fist!"

"Ice-Make: Hammer!"

Soon, Natsu and Gray were engaged in a fierce battle with the dozens of mages in the hall.

For a moment, the scene was extremely chaotic.

"Damn it, take this! Shotgun!"

A man, seeing Natsu and Gray continuously take down several of his companions, directly raised the gun in his hands and swept fire towards Natsu and Gray.

"Fire Dragon's Roar!"

After dodging all the bullets, Natsu unleashed [Fire Dragon's Roar] at the guy holding the gun while in mid-air.

The moment the magic circle appeared, a cluster of crimson flames swept towards the gun-wielding man, covering the sky.

"Storm Waltz!"

Just as Natsu's flames were about to engulf the target, a tornado suddenly appeared out of nowhere, directly blocking Natsu's flames.

"Who's there?"

Seeing his attack blocked, Natsu, after landing, immediately scanned his surroundings.

Soon, a man flew over, riding the wind.

"It's you?!"

"Long time no see, Eligar!" Natsu grinned at the man hovering in front of him.

"It's Erigor!"

Hearing Natsu get his name wrong, the man flew into a rage.

That's right, the man before Natsu was none other than Erigor, whom Erza had mentioned earlier.

He was also Natsu's old rival.

"It's that guy!"

At this point, Kenichi, Erza, and Lucy, who had just entered the hall, also recognized Erigor.

"So all my old rivals are here, huh? I'll finish you all off right here today!" The hovering Erigor glanced at Kenichi and Erza who had just entered, then said with a smirk.

"Finish us all off? You were defeated by me before!" Hearing Natsu's words, Erigor, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, immediately retorted, "I'm not the same as I was before!"

"I'll take you out first!"

"Magic Wind Palm!"

Erigor swung his palm towards Natsu, and a powerful tornado immediately swept towards him.

Natsu moved his feet, his body shooting forward, directly avoiding the tornado.

The tornado crashed into the wall behind Natsu, tearing through it as if cut by a knife.

"His magical power has indeed increased quite a bit," Erza said solemnly after seeing the power of Erigor's magic.

"Then, let's all together..."

Before Lucy could finish her sentence, Erza continued.

"No need. Natsu has also grown a lot during this time."

Then, under Kenichi's watchful eye, Natsu, who had shot forward, launched an attack towards Erigor in the sky the moment he landed.

"Fire Dragon's Iron Fist!"

Charging into the sky, Natsu's flame-wreathed fist slammed directly towards Erigor.

"Hmph, the same old moves as before!" Seeing Natsu attacking, Erigor said disdainfully.

"Storm Mail!"

The moment Natsu's fist was about to hit Erigor, a layer of armor condensed from wind appeared around Erigor's body.

It was this wind armor that blocked Natsu's punch.

However, before Erigor could even catch his breath, Natsu used [Fire Dragon's Sword Horn], directly breaking through Erigor's Storm Mail.

Bang-

With a loud bang, Erigor's body flew backwards like a cannonball, finally crashing into the wall not far behind him.

While Natsu and Erigor were fighting fiercely, the system's mechanical prompts continuously sounded in Kenichi's mind.

[Ding, congratulations Host, obtained Magic Power attribute +5]

[Ding, congratulations Host, obtained Magic Power attribute +6]

[Ding, congratulations Host, obtained Storm Magic attribute!]

[…]

While Kenichi was collecting attributes, Lucy, seeing that Natsu had defeated Erigor, was overjoyed: "That was too easy! With this, 8,000,000 J is ours!"

However, Erza looked around vigilantly and said, "It is indeed a bit too easy. This is an S-Class job after all."

Not long after Erza finished speaking, a figure suddenly rushed out, moving like a beam of light, charging straight towards Gray.

'What the...'

Gray, sensing danger, immediately turned around.

But before he could finish his words, the figure had already rushed in front of Gray and launched an attack.

In the blink of an eye, Gray was knocked to the ground.

And a man with a cockscomb-like hairstyle appeared in everyone's field of vision.

"So fast! I couldn't see his movements at all!" Erza, looking at the man before her, tightened her grip on her sword, her pretty face full of seriousness.

Kenichi, however, looked at the man with the cockscomb hair and raised an eyebrow.

'It's him… one of the Oracion Seis's members!'

That's right, the man now standing before Kenichi, Erza, and the others was none other than one of the Oracion Seis's members, codenamed Racer.
