CHAPTER START---

'Sharp,' Oberon thinks while leaping backward, seeing the massive slash Fulr's sword strike left in the road. Before the mont could pass, his gaze shifts back to Fulr, seeing the man take a low combat stance and prepare for a horizontal swing.

Behind them, Gildarts and Avsala trade blows, entrenched in their own battle, shaking the area with each clash.

'She's keeping up with Gildarts,' Oberon acknowledges this sight, for the first ti seeing Gildarts have to put effort into anything. But he's not surprised after the briefing they all had in Era.

He casts everything else out of his mind and focuses entirely on Fulr, even as far behind him, Fairy Tail mbers battle enemy Wizards. He raises his hand to fire a Light Shot at the man.

But Fulr instantly disappears, not teleporting, simply moving at absurd speed to appear in front of Oberon and slash horizontally, from left hip to the boy's shoulder. Oberon's eyes widen as he raises his arms to block with his forearms.

The blade crashes against his Cosmic Barrier, slashing the flesh on his arms before the Barrier is reinforced, blunting the strike to knock Oberon into the air. He's pushed high above the base, and Fulr narrows his eyes at the boy.

'That right arm of his,' Fulr thinks, focusing on the Fairy Glitter Emblem. 'We wanted to avoid Fairy Tail after that Magic beca public, maybe removing that arm would stop it…'

The man tightens his grip on his sword and rolls his left arm, ready to raise his shield at a mont's notice. Within a second Oberon unleashes a rain of golden light beams at him.

Fulr narrows his eyes at the boy, instantly understanding that Oberon is trying to blind him and disappear. 'I can't sense him because of so trick, so I won't let him leave my sight!' Fulr leaps into the air, then instantly accelerates forward.

He raises his tower shield, keeping it just below his eyes while flowing Magic Energy into it, activating the enchantnt. A large Magic Circle appears in front of the shield, and the Light Magic attacks crash into it.

Fulr is knocked back and bombarded with the attacks, halting his montum before he flies to the side and avoids more shots. He keeps track of Oberon in his peripheral vision while changing his plan, now aware that for reasons unknown the Reflect Magic enchantnt wouldn't work on Oberon's Magic.

So instead, he changes the active enchantnt to simple reinforcent, then turns on a sharp angle and charges Oberon. While both flying above the battlefield, Oberon raises his hand and unleashes a rain of Light Magic Beams, but Fulr rampages through them.

He shatters them with his blade and bashes them with his shield, then places the shield in front of him and instantly accelerates forward.

Oberon thrusts both arms forward, reinforcing his Cosmic Barrier and creating another Gravity Barrier in front of himself, which Fulr bashes into. He feels his Barrier strain, but before it can break, he's sent tumbling through the air above the base.

Fulr flies to pursue him, but Oberon flips and waves his hand upward, reversing gravity on the man to throw him skyward. But Fulr slashes forward, launching a dozen Magic Energy slashes at Oberon, then he throws his sword with all his might.

Oberon avoids all the slashes and flies higher to avoid the blade, but Fulr disappears from the reverse gravity zone, appearing below him by the blade, grabbing it, then throwing it above.

All of this happens within a blink, and Oberon only realizes what happened when Fulr's blade soars up to him, directly in front of his face.

Fulr appears beside it and, in one fluid motion, grabs the handle and brings it down onto Oberon.

Oberon reacts quickly and punches forward, reinforcing his Cosmic Barrier around his fist while making his strike heavy with Gravity Magic, and their clash sends a shockwave through the air. Oberon is sent tumbling backward, with a cut on his knuckles and broken fingers beneath the skin, while Fulr shakes away the numbness in his right arm.

"Ah, you're strong," Oberon says as he flexes his already healing fingers.

Fulr frowns and flies higher, matched by Oberon to keep their battle as even as possible. He carefully observes the boy while repositioning, changing his plan with each new piece of information. "You can heal," he says, pointing the blade at Oberon's forearms.

"What about it?"

"We had no information about that Healing Magic," Fulr says.

"Most people can't get through my defenses to make it necessary, so it rarely cos up."

"Your Barrier is annoying, so I'm not surprised."

"Says the guy with a tower shield…"

Fulr narrows his eyes at Oberon. "I'm a knight, we use sword and shield."

"I'm unard," Oberon says.

Fulr laughs. "Nice try, but taking chances in a battle of Magic is suicide. You may be a child, but you are a S-Class Wizard of Fairy Tail. And the fact that even with all my specially made Magic Items you're still alive, is proof enough that I need every advantage I can get."

"So those are Magic Items…that's what I was trying to figure out."

Fulr takes a combat stance in the air, ready to charge. "Extre Speed and Super Power Magics are the talent of a knight from the Pergrande Kingdom, but beyond its glorified prison walls, much more is needed."

"I figured 'The deserter' would have stopped using them by now."

"I still love my ho, which is why I need the power to change it. I am still a knight of the Pergrande Kingdom's Capital Circle."

"In that case," Oberon withdraws a silver key from his Requip Magic dinsional space, and flows Magic Energy into it. "Open, Gate of the Chisel, Caleum!"

Beside him, a massive 10m -33ft- long chisel with a large spherical top and an angular handrail for a humansized handhold appears. Oberon reaches out and grabs it, wielding it like a sword at his side.

"Then let's see if you really are a knight," the boy smiles and charges Fulr.

Fulr is taken aback by the sight, but doesn't hesitate to match Oberon's charge, using his Magics to fly forward and clash blades. Caelum is so massive that neither man knows how the clash will end, so Fulr puts his all into the strike.

And Caelum flies out of Oberon's hand, flipping through the air and landing sowhere below. Fulr glances down to see it buried in the ground far outside the walls of the base, then rushes Oberon.

"A real knight would never be easily disard!" he yells while slashing out at the boy.

Oberon flies backward, narrowly avoiding the strikes and punching Fulr when he can, but each punch lands on the tower shield. Fulr's assault is relentless, but halts for a mont as Oberon lands on good hit on the shield, pushing him back and making space between them.

He sees the boy flex his numb hand, bones still shaking from impacting the shield. And Fulr can't help but notice the Fairy Glitter mark repaired itself along with the skin. "Is the Fairy Glitter Spell not stored in that mark?"

"Do people really think that?" Oberon asks. "This mark just ans I have access to the spell and can use it."

Oberon then pulls up the short sleeve on his right arm, showing off the emblazoned black Fairy Tail emblem on his shoulder, flanked by two small wings.

"Is that what I think it is…" Fulr mutters. "You have access to two of them?!"

Oberon smiles mischievously. "Yeah, and I think I've stalled enough."

"For what?" Fulr focuses on the Magic Energy of his allies, sensing that the Wizard Saints and Aces are still fighting. "This battle is far from over."

"True, but it took a second to get ready to test you. After all, you're a knight, right? And knights protect the castle, so…"

Fulr is confused for a mont, assuming Oberon was rely playing tricks on him.

But a mont later, a thunderous boom echoes through the battlefield. Blinding light shines out for an instant, pulling everyone's attention to a hill far beyond the base walls.

Fulr sees Caelum fully transford into a massive floating turret, firing a beam of green Magic Energy directly at their fortress guildhall. The attack is two stories wide and moving at high speeds, and due to its unknown properties, he can't afford to let it reach the fortress.

He turns away from Oberon and moves to intercept the attack, knowing the Rune Knights and Fairy Tail Wizards are mostly near the main gate, so his people would be devastated by this hit.

He pushes his speed to its limit and arrives in front of the massive beam, raising his shield and holding his ground. The Magic Energy beam hits the large Magic Circle, and Fulr feels it like a sledgehamr to the bones.

Each second, a dozen strikes hit his body begging for rest, but he grits his teeth and bears it. And for nearly five seconds he endures, pouring more and more Magic Energy into the shield.

To him what felt like an hour passes, but when the attack faded and he'd successfully stopped it, he turns toward the eerily silent battlefield.

He barely has ti to raise his shield again before both Oberon's feet crash into it, hitting his aching body with absurd force and crushing him into the ground.

Oberon skates on him like a surfboard, tearing up the coral landscape while reaching down and grabbing the shield with both hands, forcing his Magic Energy into it. The shield instantly starts cracking as Oberon intentionally pours his Cosmic Magic Energy into it, destabilizing the enchantnts and causing the item to glow bright blue.

"Annoying damn shield!" Oberon yells as Fulr's face shifts to horror, feeling the item beco explosive while attached to his arm.

Before he can respond, it shatters and detonates into an explosion the size of a carriage, sending a blastwave outward and lting the ground.

Oberon imdiately waves his hand, using Gravity Magic to send a gust of wind through the area, clearing out the dust. He looks down at the empty molten crater, then around, seeing Fulr getting up from the floor a few hundred feet away.

Beside him is his sword, which he teleported to at the last mont, saving himself. He gets up and reclaims his weapon, then turns toward where Caelum is, seeing the Celestial Spirit disappear.

"Too much Magic Energy, huh?" he says as Oberon lands behind him, then turns to face the boy. "A silver key with that much power. I didn't think any keys had power like that, but you're all gassed out. And I've still got plenty of energy."

"Nah. Caelum has a cooldown ti between shots. The more energy I put into a shot, the longer the ti. Keeping him out in that state is pointless, that's all."

"All of that just to get rid of my shield," Fulr points his blade at Oberon. "I don't suppose you'll fight with the sa handicap and drop yours."

Oberon laughs. "Didn't you say Wizards should take every advantage they can get? But, how about this…"

Oberon clasps his hands together, then opens them to form a Light Construct Sword between his hands, grabbing it out of the air with his right hand and pointing it at Fulr.

"Challenging a knight to a battle of swords? Is this arrogance, or simply stupidity?" he asks while taking a combat stance, prepared to accept the challenge.

Oberon does his best to mirror the stance, holding his blade in the sa manner. "It's training, that's all…"
