“By the way, if the culprits are the entire Wizard Guild, there should be more than just this many people, right?” Looking at the dozen or so men in black he had easily defeated, and the four or five Wizards lying on the ground unable to get up, Igor changed the subject and asked Gildarts.
Anyway, since the enemy is a Wizard Guild that dominates an entire city, there should be at least around a hundred of them, right?
“That’s right.
There are more than a hundred enemies.” Gildarts smiled at Igor, a faint curiosity appearing in his eyes as he asked, “So, what do you plan to do?
Are you going to run away?
Or…” “Hehe, isn’t that a question you don’t even need to ask?” As Igor spoke, he and Mirajane exchanged glances.
After years together, they understood each other the moment they met eyes, and the two said in unison, “Run away?
The word ‘run away’ isn’t in our dictionary!!
Of course we’ll take down every last one of these villains here!” “Haha.” Gildarts was certain he had not misjudged them and smiled faintly.
Gildarts gently patted Igor and Mirajane’s shoulders, pulled Lisanna and Elfman to his side, and nodded as he said, “Then you can go with peace of mind!
I’ll protect Lisanna and Elfman’s safety.” “Mm.” After thinking for a moment, Igor and Mirajane headed in the direction Gildarts indicated — toward the Wizard Guild “Deadly Rattlesnake.” … Wizard Guild “Deadly Rattlesnake.” This was a five-story mansion located in the center of Viola, occupying the best location in the city and radiating luxury and dignity.
“The Guild Leader really is something… It’s just some people causing a ruckus at a bar, right?
That happens every day, doesn’t it?!
He could’ve just sent a few people to deal with the troublemakers.
Did he really need to get involved himself?” Hundreds of guild members had gathered, drinking and chatting.
“Hmph, you think the Guild Leader doesn’t want to?!” “According to the Guild Leader, the people who caused trouble at the tavern this time also seem to be members of a Wizard Guild…” One guild member who looked quite experienced sat on the sofa in the middle of the hall and began explaining.
“I think the Guild Leader is overthinking it.
Members of a famous Wizard Guild wouldn’t come to a remote, poor place like this, right?” The other Wizards in the guild looked at them with contempt.
They had grown so used to acting tyrannically in this frontier town that they had long since lost the wariness a Wizard ought to have.
“Too much.” The Wizard sitting on the sofa picked up a wine bottle from the table, took a sip, and muttered to himself, “Those big-shot Wizards from famous guilds wouldn’t bother coming to a resource-poor city like this on a Quest.” “BOOM!” Just as the Wizards were chatting, the guild door was suddenly kicked open with a loud bang, and the entire guild fell silent.
“Who is it?” All the Wizards in the guild hall turned at once and saw two teenagers standing at the guild entrance, looking coldly at everyone there.
“Hey, hey, this isn’t a place for brats.
If you don’t want to die, get out of here right now…” “You good-for-nothings, go home to your parents!
Don’t interrupt our drinking, or you’ll regret it.” When the Wizards realized the intruders were just two kids, they immediately looked down on them, contempt appearing in their eyes.
“Take Over…” The two teenagers were not intimidated by the Wizards’ threats and released their own magic circles.
“Buzz!” Extremely powerful magical power was released from their bodies, and dazzling purple magic circles instantly lit up the guild hall.
A white-haired demon covered in black scales with demon wings on her back, and a Bomb Demon with a torpedo-like head wearing an explosive combat skirt, appeared before everyone’s eyes.
“Eh, these brats were actually Wizards from another guild?!” The moment the members of Wizard Guild “Deadly Rattlesnake” saw the newcomers’ forms, their pupils trembled as if an earthquake had struck, and they shouted loudly.
Unfortunately, their reactions — already numbed by alcohol and tobacco — were far too slow.
“Soul Seizer…” The next instant, a dazzling magic circle floated up in front of the white-haired demon.
Black, oily demon hands shot out from the magic circle and bound the hundreds of members of “Deadly Rattlesnake” on the spot.
“It’s time to end it all!” When the white-haired demon chanted the binding spell, the Bomb Demon standing beside her immediately whispered, “MOAB!!” “BOOM!” In an instant, an ear-splitting roar rang out.
A blazing fireball swallowed the entire Wizard Guild “Deadly Rattlesnake” in the blink of an eye, engulfed the towering five-story building over six meters tall, and rose straight into the night sky as a mushroom cloud.
“What happened?
An earthquake?
Or an explosion?” “Look!
The Wizard Guild ‘Deadly Rattlesnake’ has been wiped out!” Outside the guild, citizens walking the streets who noticed the roar and flames tearing through the night sky all rushed toward the city center.
When they arrived at the explosion site, the huge “Deadly Rattlesnake” Guild had been destroyed without a trace.
Its members lay on the ground, their fates unknown.
Standing in the ruins were two demons so intimidating that no one dared look at them directly.
Thus, the Wizard Guild “Deadly Rattlesnake” was annihilated.
“I can’t believe it!
Am I dreaming?!” On the street, residents who had long suffered under the wrath of Wizard Guild “Deadly Rattlesnake” had never imagined that the guild that had been so powerful and tyrannical until morning — including its Guild Leader — would be wiped out by Igor and his group.
It was truly unbelievable.
“Igor, Mirajane, you two really did well.” At that moment, Gildarts arrived at the city center together with Lisanna and Elfman.
Looking at the huge building destroyed by Igor and Mirajane, he said with a smile, “Now you two have started to resemble the style of our Fairy Tail Guild.” “No!
Anything but that…” Igor’s eyes twitched slightly, a look of helplessness seeping into his expression.
“Hmph, of course we did a good job.” Mirajane proudly raised her chin, confidence overflowing in her eyes.
Mirajane only acted ingratiating in front of Igor, Elfman, and Lisanna.
In front of other people, she was quite arrogant.
But Igor knew that was only Mirajane’s facade.
“The explosion came from over there!
What?
The Wizard Guild ‘Deadly Rattlesnake’ was wiped out in one go?” Just then, perhaps because Igor, Mirajane, and the others had gone too far, immediately after they defeated “Deadly Rattlesnake,” a large army waving the flag of the “Magic Council” marched toward the city center.
“This is bad!
The Magic Council’s army!” When Gildarts realized who it was, his expression completely changed.
Fear appeared in his eyes.
He hurriedly shoved the map into Igor’s arms and said quickly, “Igor, if you’re going the same way, take a look at this place.
I’ll be taking my leave now.” “Eh?
We’re saying goodbye already?” Lisanna and Elfman, who had gotten along very well with Gildarts these past few days, looked at him a little awkwardly.
“It can’t be helped.” “A week ago, while carrying out a Quest to wipe out bandits, I accidentally destroyed half of a local noble’s territory.” “Two weeks ago, when I was taking out a monster causing trouble at the dock, I carelessly forgot to hold back and destroyed both the monster and the dock.” After saying that, Gildarts hurriedly ran off into the distance.
“Sir, we’ve found that good-for-nothing Gildarts.” Just as Gildarts was frantically trying to flee the city, Magic Council soldiers appeared in front of Igor and the others.
One soldier immediately recognized Gildarts from behind and reported to the leader on a white horse.
“I’m sorry, we’re late.” The middle-aged leader dismounted, embraced the four children — Mirajane, Igor, Elfman, and Lisanna — and showed an expression as if he felt sorry for being late and causing trouble.
Then he shouted, “Half of you stay and arrest every member of the ‘Deadly Rattlesnake’ Guild.
The remaining half, follow me and chase that bastard Gildarts.” …
