Deep within the forest of Worth Woodsea.
Brain, Racer, and the other members of the Oracion Seis were busy searching for Nirvana, hidden somewhere in the forest.
Suddenly, one of the patterns on Brain's face vanished.
"Angel... has failed!"
The moment the pattern disappeared, Brain immediately looked up, gazing towards a certain direction in the forest.
"Oh?!"
Hearing Brain's words, Cobra, who was entwined with a python, said with a mocking tone, "To actually take down Angel... it seems among the little bugs the Council sent, there are some capable ones!"
"Cobra, Racer, you go deal with those little bugs!"
"Hoteye, you stay with me and continue searching for Nirvana!"
"As for Midnight... he stays here."
Brain looked at the still-sleeping Midnight and instructed everyone.
"I hear it... the sound of those little bugs wailing in agony!"
Cobra stroked the python on his body, a cat-playing-with-mouse expression appearing on his face.
"Let's go, Cobra. We need to make this quick."
Racer stood up, glanced at Cobra, and then his figure vanished from the spot.
Just as the Oracion Seis were advancing towards the location of Kenichi's group, Kenichi, Erza, and the others also emerged from the villa and headed into the forest.
"Kenichi, can you temporarily deactivate that Spatial Magic of yours?"
As they walked, Erza asked Kenichi.
Erza was naturally referring to the Spatial Magic attribute Kenichi obtained from Marin Hollow, Rules of the Area.
Although Erza didn't say much, Kenichi understood her meaning.
After all, as long as he stood near Erza, her Requip Magic would be affected by the Rules of the Area, rendering it ineffective.
With that, Erza's strength would be greatly impacted as a result.
"I'll try."
Kenichi glanced at Erza, then focused his mind and asked the system: 'Can I temporarily deactivate the Spatial Magic attribute?'
[It cannot be deactivated. But Host can reduce the area of effect of the Rules of the Area.]
'Reduce the range?'
Hearing the system's response, Kenichi immediately activated his Space Magic.
Soon, under Kenichi's control, the area affected by the Rules of the Area shrank drastically.
Previously, Erza couldn't use Requip Magic within several meters of Kenichi.
But now, as long as Erza wasn't at zero distance or negative distance from Kenichi, she could use Requip Magic.
Of course, if facing an enemy using spatial magic, Kenichi just needed to expand the range of the Rules of the Area.
"It's done."
After shrinking the range of the Spatial Law, Kenichi said to Erza.
"Let me try!"
"Requip!"
Erza didn't hesitate at all and immediately channeled her magical power.
In the next second, a dazzling light erupted around her.
When the light faded, the silver-white armor Erza was wearing had changed into casual clothes.
"That should be fine now!"
Seeing that the Requip Magic was successful, Erza used Requip Magic again to don the silver-white armor.
At this point, the system's mechanical prompt also sounded in Kenichi's mind.
[Ding, congratulations Host, obtained Magic Power attribute +4]
[Ding, congratulations Host, obtained Magic Power attribute +4]
[Ding, congratulations Host, obtained Requip Magic attribute!]
'Requip Magic attribute?'
Hearing this system prompt, Kenichi looked at Erza and raised an eyebrow.
[Host, would you like to collect the Requip Magic attribute?]
'Collect!'
With Kenichi's command, the three golden attributes beside Erza converged directly towards Kenichi.
After the three attributes merged into Kenichi's body, the Magic Power and Magic attributes on the virtual screen in front of him flickered.
'Requip Magic, huh?'
Requip Magic is a type of Spatial Magic. (T/N: Since both are Spatial Magic, I'll change Marin Hollow's Spatial Magic to Rules of the Area from now on.)
It works by retrieving clothes and equipment stored in another dimension and equipping them.
Although Kenichi didn't particularly need this Requip Magic, he could use it to retrieve other items.
Such as luggage, for instance.
This way, he wouldn't need to carry luggage on missions.
In reality, however, Kenichi didn't carry luggage.
After all, his luggage was stored in the different dimension he had taken from Marin Hollow.
With this Requip Magic, he could retrieve items from that different dimension without having to enter it, simply by using Requip Magic.
Just as Kenichi was lost in thought, Natsu's exclamation suddenly sounded through the air.
"So cool! Is this the Magic Bomber? It can actually fly in the sky!"
Hearing Natsu's words, Kenichi and Erza both looked up towards the sky ahead.
They saw a huge airship, shaped like a Pegasus, flying towards them.
"Whoa, it really is a Pegasus!"
Looking at the airship, Erza also exclaimed in admiration.
Seeing the astonished expressions on Natsu's, Gray's, and the others' faces, Ichiya, Eve, and the others were all basking in the admiration.
"Now we just need to find the Oracion Seis's base. We can use the Magic Bomber to pulverize them in an instant!"
As soon as Eve finished speaking, a sudden, abrupt voice came through the air.
"I heard that! You plan to use that big thing against us!"
Hearing this, everyone's expressions changed.
Looking towards the source of the voice, they saw two men emerge from the forest.
These two men were, of course, Cobra and Racer, sent by Brain to deal with Kenichi's group.
"It's that guy!"
The moment Natsu saw Racer, his expression changed dramatically.
"It's you?"
While Natsu recognized Racer, Racer naturally also recognized Natsu, Lucy, and Gray.
"We were just looking for you, and you delivered yourselves to us!"
Racer looked at the three of them, a killing intent immediately appearing on his face.
At the same time, Jura, Lyon, and the others all fixed their gazes on Cobra and Racer.
"Cobra and Racer of the Oracion Seis!"
Just as Lyon and the others were contemplating how to deal with Cobra and Racer, Natsu charged forward without a second thought.
"Let's settle this!"
Seeing Natsu charge forward so recklessly, Gray shouted, "Natsu...!"
But Natsu seemed not to hear Gray's words, his figure not slowing in the slightest.
Seeing Natsu being so rash, Gray couldn't help but click his tongue, then followed Natsu, charging towards Racer.
Kenichi and Erza, who were at the very back of the group, saw Racer and Cobra.
Erza's pretty face changed.
But a look of delight appeared on Kenichi's face.
'The Poison Dragon Slayer has finally appeared!'
Kenichi looked at Cobra, a gleam shining in his eyes.
