At the sa ti.
Both the mbers of Fairy Tail and the Phantom Lord mbers ran out after hearing the commotion outside.
Seeing the chanical giant standing tall under the night sky, slowly drawing a giant magic circle, everyone's pupils constricted violently.
"What is that big guy?!"
The pipe in Wakaba's mouth almost fell out in shock. "It looks... very dangerous!"
"That's the magic-guided giant!"
Mirajane stood at the front of the crowd, her usually gentle face now full of seriousness.
"But what's truly dangerous is what it's drawing, the Forbidden Magic: Abyss Break!!!"
"Forbidden Magic?!"
Everyone exclaid. The words 'Forbidden Magic' alone represented destruction and ruin; even the weakest Forbidden Magic was enough to cause serious consequences.
Mirajane nodded. As an S-Class Wizard, her knowledge far exceeded that of ordinary people.
"Abyss Break combines the magic of the four elents of earth, water, fire, and wind to generate powerful dark waves to eliminate targets. Because of its terrifying destructiveness, it is classified as Forbidden Magic!"
"Not only that..."
A figure landed lightly beside Mirajane; it was Ron, who had co down from the top floor.
With his arms crossed, he looked up at the magic circle, which was already one-fifth complete.
"Given the scale of this magic circle, once it's completed, I'm afraid the entire Magnolia Town will be reduced to ashes in the dark waves!"
"What?!"
"Reduced to ashes? The entire town?!"
Hearing this, everyone present turned pale with horror.
"Damn it! What exactly do the Phantom Lord people want to do?!"
The Phantom Lord mbers hung their heads in sha upon hearing this. They didn't know what their crazy guild master wanted to do either; they were just abandoned pawns.
Just then.
"Makarov!"
Jose stepped out from the head of the magic-guided giant, looking directly at the giant before him.
"Hand over Lucy Heartfilia! Now!!!"
"Otherwise... I'll make everyone in Magnolia be buried with you!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire field fell silent.
Everyone's gaze instantly focused on the blonde girl in the crowd.
"Lucy?!"
"Why Lucy?"
Everyone looked confused, glancing at one another.
Wasn't this a battle between guilds? How did Lucy suddenly get involved?
Natsu scratched his head and looked unhappily at the silent Gajeel beside him.
"Hey, scrap tal bastard! What's going on?"
Hearing Natsu's questioning, Gajeel spat unhappily.
"We originally accepted a commission from the head of the Heartfilia Konzern to bring that young lady back."
"As for attacking your guild and those three guys... it was just to provoke you and conveniently wipe out your Fairy Tail Guild."
"Father?! How could..."
These words were like a thunderclap exploding in Lucy's mind.
Her eyes widened, her body trembled slightly, and she covered her mouth in disbelief.
She hadn't expected that the source of this battle would actually be herself!
Lucy's gaze trembled as she looked at her guild mates beside her, who were covered in scars from the battle. She thought of the destroyed guild and the three people, including Levy, who were seriously injured in the attack... Instantly, the guilt rising in her heart subrged her like a tide.
'So... it's all because of . That's why everyone got hurt, the guild was destroyed, and now even Magnolia Town is facing destruction... It's all because of !'
Looking at everyone's temporary silence, Lucy felt like a sinner. She lowered her head in sha, her tears dripping onto the ground one by one.
"Lucy-chan."
An arm gently hugged Lucy, and Levy's bright and gentle voice reached her ears.
"Don't make such a sad face. None of this is your fault, so don't bla yourself."
Lucy looked up abruptly and, through her misty eyes, saw Levy's brilliant smile.
"Levy-chan? But, you guys..."
Jet and Droy also approached with hearty smiles.
"Actually, we weren't injured. That was all Ron's doing on purpose!"
Ron glanced over upon hearing this: Whatever, I'll let you off this ti... Suddenly, an extrely exaggerated exclamation ca from the crowd.
"Eh—?! Wait! I finally rember!"
Wakaba's furrowed brow cleared up as he pointed at Lucy.
"The Heartfilia Konzern?! Isn't that the kingdom's largest railway group?! Is Lucy actually the young lady of that super-conglorate?!"
"What?!" xN
A group of guys exclaid.
Macao imdiately approached, looking Lucy up and down, left and right, with the eyes of soone seeing a rare animal.
"I can't tell at all! A person like Lucy, who worries about rent all day, is actually a rich woman?!"
"Lucy, Lucy, is your house the kind where even the toilet is bigger than our houses?"
"Hey, hey, if I had known you were a young lady, I would have asked to borrow money from you!"
"Forget it, Lucy worries about rent herself; how would she have money to lend you..."
"..."
Everyone's reaction left Lucy dazed. With tears still at the corners of her eyes, she didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
"Thwack!"
Erza couldn't take it anymore and gave both Macao and Wakaba a heavy blow to their heads.
"You two! At such a serious ti, is this what you're thinking about?!"
"Ah! Ow, ow, ow..."
The duo's comical performance imdiately made everyone burst into laughter.
'Hey, hey, is now the ti for fooling around? The Forbidden Magic on the other side hasn't stopped yet. What a bunch of people who don't know the ti and place...'
Ron shook his head helplessly at this scene and looked at the distant giant.
Perhaps it's because there's such a spiritual pillar standing before them that these guys can be so carefree!
"Forget it, I'd better get to work first."
Ron muttered to himself in a low voice, his gaze fixed on the distant magic circle.
Light shone in his left eye as runes intertwined and flowed, beginning to analyze the Abyss Break that was being drawn.
On the other side.
Gajeel and the Phantom Lord people were covered in sweatdrops, looking at the Fairy Tail crowd as if they were aliens.
"Are these guys... all insane?"
"Death is at their doorstep, so why did they suddenly start fooling around? Do they not know what fear is?"
Jose, atop the magic-guided giant in the distance, was also quite infuriated by this scene.
"Enough!!!"
"Makarov! What have you decided?! Will you hand over Lucy, or will everyone be reduced to ashes under Abyss Break?!"
Upon hearing Jose's ultimatum, all the laughter and noise stopped instantly.
"Jose! What kind of joke is this?!"
Makarov stood at the very front, his gaze firm as he stared coldly at Jose.
"No matter what conglorate Lucy is the young lady of, since she joined Fairy Tail, she is my child and a mber of this guild's family!"
"In this world, no father would push his own child into danger just to save his own skin!"
"And even more so, no guild would betray its own comrades in exchange for peace!"
The fooling-around crowd also straightened up. Even facing Forbidden Magic, they showed no fear.
"The Master is right! There's no reason to hand over our own comrade to an enemy guild!"
"That's right, Lucy is our comrade!"
"Stop joking! If you want to fight, then let's fight. Who's afraid of who?!"
"..."
Lucy, protected behind everyone, looked at the backs before her and the old man who was like a pillar supporting the heavens. Tears blurred her vision once again.
"Everyone..."
The Phantom Lord crowd looked on blankly at this impassioned scene.
"Truly... a bunch of lunatics..." Gajeel muttered to himself.
"Good, good, good! Since you want to die, I'll fulfill your wish!"
As Jose's voice fell, countless Ghost Soldiers condensed from dark magic surged out, heading straight for the Fairy Tail crowd like a tide.
At the sa ti, Jose himself turned into a streak of black light and lunged straight at Makarov!
Instantly, the great battle resud!
Only the terrifying magic-guided giant remained standing in place.
The Abyss Break, which was enough to destroy everything, was already one-third complete under its drawing!!!
