Countless Substitute, looking like Gar, charged towards the distant battlefield.
Seeing Gar charging down with cards in hand, the Guild members' faces lit up with joy, while the faces of the Dark Guild members turned to shock:
"So many?"
Someone quickly reacted, using Magic to shatter the Substitutes:
"They're fake! Substitutes!"
"No!"
"7"
"Some cards are real!"
Those Substitutes of Gar were torn apart.
Some completely disappeared, while others left the cards they were holding behind.
They fell onto the ice.
Boom!
Black Flame God Arrow exploded behind the battlefield.
The inextinguishable black endless flame swept out, treating everything around as firewood, and the Dark Guild members' shrill screams rose.
From the rear of the Dark Guild, a sweet shout came:
"Sin Beam!"
From the ship in the rear, a small girl with pink hair walked out, accompanying that sweet shout.
Countless golden-yellow beams, like a meteor shower, streaked across the battlefield, instantly clearing out the Gar Substitutes in the air that hadn't yet descended.
"It's Meredy-sama!"
"Sugoi!!"
"As expected of a reserve Purgatorys Kin, so powerful at such a young age!"
"Hahahaha, attack, attack!"
"Kill all those Light Mage!"
In the distance.
Ultear looked up and saw the golden beams, and immediately looked over:
"Meredy!"
She met Meredy's gaze, which was full of hatred.
Ultear's body trembled, and she lost herself for a moment, stepping forward, wanting to find Meredy.
Rumble!
The ice beneath her feet shattered, and golden light shone in the water.
Ultear couldn't control herself and fell back, subconsciously wanting to cast Magic, when she heard Kain Hikaru's voice:
"Die, Ultear!"
"You traitor!!!"
The golden light broke through the water, a thick golden beam shot straight over, aimed at Ultear's heart.
Ultear forcefully twisted her body:
"Time Arc!"
Her body strangely stopped falling, and the ice beneath her feet also rapidly retreated, although it didn't stop the golden light from attacking, it made it avoid the vital spot of her heart, forcing her to stop her body, letting the golden light graze her arm.
Kain Hikaru's face at the bottom of the lake was grim:
"Troublesome time ability."
He raised his hand, preparing to continue attacking, but the surroundings suddenly became cold.
The sound of ice constantly spreading sounded, rapidly spreading towards Kain Hikaru's location.
Kain Hikaru cursed under his breath, took out a puppet:
"Self-Enhancement · Heat!"
His body instantly transformed into a heat source, significantly increasing his cold resistance, and he clasped his hands together:
"Hell Steam Explosion!"
Kain Hikaru's body suddenly turned red, and the lake water in contact with the surface of his body instantly evaporated a large number of bubbles, steam constantly rising from within his body, and the surroundings instantly became a vacuum zone, constantly spreading outwards.
Boom!!!
A thunderous roar spread across the battlefield, the impact of the explosion shattered the ice surface of the entire lake into large pieces, squeezing together at different heights.
Ultear, holding up a Magic shield, was impacted into the air, blood flowing from the corner of her mouth, her boots were torn apart by the impact of the steam, and her originally fair calves showed discoloration after being scalded.
The sudden impact caused everyone to lose their footing, and they all lay prostrate on the ice.
Seeing Ultear injured, Ur's angry roar came from a distance:
"IceMake [Ice Sword Forest]!"
At this moment, the cold air rapidly spread, re-freezing the cracks torn open by the explosion, and Kain Hikaru, who jumped out of the lake, was met with the spreading ice and the giant ice swords growing on the surrounding ice surface.
Kain Hikaru's whole body glowed red, and his feet landed on the ice with a 'hissing' sound of steam.
Kain Hikaru raised his arm, one hand clenched into a fist, the other straightened and aimed at the giant ice sword that was coming, and punched out with a straight punch:
"Heat Source · Impact!"
Hiss!!!!
The alternating hot and cold air swept across the battlefield, sometimes suffocating people, sometimes allowing them to breathe.
Ishgar Continent, central.
On the vast wilderness plain.
Before a simple negotiation table.
Chairman Crawford Hume couldn't help but frown, looking at Azuma opposite:
"This won't do, that won't do either."
"Did Hades send you here to negotiate, or to mess with us?"
"Is Grimoire Heart preparing to go to war with the Magic Council?"
Azuma's face showed a sincere expression:
"I know it's a bit much."
"But there's nothing I can do..."
"All the conditions you mentioned, I have to ask for Hades-sama's decision."
"Hades-sama might be busy right now."
"So I can't reply in time, I'm really sorry."
Crawford Seam's face darkened:
"Busy?"
"Busier than me?"
He, the Speaker of the Magic Council, came here to preside over the negotiations, what could a mere Guild Master of a Dark Guild be busy with?
Makarov's face was a little cold, and he said:
"Busy destroying our Fairy Tail?"
As soon as these words came out, the two people next to him were startled.
Crawford Seam turned to look at Makarov:
"What did you say?"
