Crisps clap resounded in the air but Noah, Erza and Laxus turned around with their eyebrows lifted.
What they saw was a group of person who have encircled them with malevolent grin on their face. Itâs clear their intentions are hostile.
Who else but the magicians of Phantom Lord.
âAlthough it looks like you guys are very busy but please let us impose a bit here, we are very sorry for thisâŠâ
said Mogria while still clapping. He has a smile on his face but his eyes are not laughing thatâs for sure.
âCould you guys perhaps save this brotherâs feud for another time?â
âOf courseâŠâ Mogria narrow his eyes with a beaming expression.
âThatâs if you guys are still alive then!â
With the way things are going itâs clear as day that these people arenât here to sip tea.
âHmph!â
Laxus let go of Noahâs collar and surpressed the unpleasant feeling he got when Noah took a verbal jab at him. Instead, he snarked at Mogria.
âLooks like someone canât bear the feeling of losing, itâs no wonder they can only stay as a hotshot within their group!â
His smile froze, he got more serious and his eyes grew colder asw ell.
âTo be able to keep his cool even in situation as dire as this, as expected of Makarovâs grandson.â
âWhatâs that about being Makarovâs grandson HUH?!â
Malice climbed up Laxusâs face.
âI am the one and only Laxus, I am not just some grandson of Makarov!â
âWho cares about minor details like that!â
Mogria handwaved.
âDoesnât matter if youâre Makarovâs grandson, as long as youâre from Fairy Tail then thatâs reason enough!â
Adjusting his collar, he stopped and lifted his head.
âSo to say, Phantom Lord wishes to go against Fairy Tail either way?â
âI donât know whether or Phantom Lord wishes to pick a fight with Fairy Tail!â
Mogria smirked.
âI only know one thing, I donât like you people, to a great extent for that matter!â
âYou guys want to start a guild war?!â
Said Erza with her guard raised.
âDidnât you guys say this wouldnât be a wise move?â
âI will tell you whatâs the wise move, you guys getting down on your knees and apologizing!â
âGetting down on our knees and saying sorry?â
Laxus scanned over the phantom lord member present before setting his eyes on Mogria.
âSorry pal, I am different from you guys, I wonât even give you the chance to apologize!â
Right after he said that, he disappeared from his original position.
bzzt
He flashed out of instantaneously clad in golden lightning, leaving an afterimage, he appeared in front of Mogria smashed his electrified fist down. The image is enlarging within Mogriaâs field of vision.
âHurrrâ!â
Looking at the fist raging with lightning, his pupils narrowed and with an explosive roar a golden lightning surged out of him as well.
Bammm
The fists collided and the impact sent waves of wind radially outwards, the lightning followed thereafter. The phantomlord members quickly took a safe distance in a hasty manner.
Noah and Erza reacted faster than the mooks, they quickly took a distance when they saw the fists colliding with each other. They are currently at a place where the lightning canât reach them.
At ground zero, the lightning clad Laxus is looking at Mogriaâs lightning with a stern expression.
âYou guys knew about me participating in this mission isnât it?â
Lightning magic isnât that rare.
Rather, element type magic is very common, and so are lightning magicians.
Itâs just too big a coincidence for a lightning user of the same competence as him to appear here. And it just so happens that they are here to screw Fairy Tailâs assignment and that the lightning user is the leader as well. This is most definitely not a coincidence.
In other words, phantom lord knew Laxus will make an appearance and this is their countermeasure against him.
The enemy had made provisions for a fight from the start!
When he arrived at this conclusion, Laxus tensed up even more.
Standing in opposition to him is Mogria who has a nasty look on his face at the moment. Heâs also keeping his eyes on Laxus.
Heâs right, Mogria is here specifically to deal with Laxus.
There is however something he didnât expect. He didnât think he would really need to personally deal with some fifteen year old brat. Turns out the kid didnât even look disadvantaged after one round of exchange, heck he looked like heâs still pulling punches!
Him? Losing to a 15 yo brat?
âDonât fuck with me!â
He roared with envy and discontent. Turning to the mooks standing nearby he issued a command.
âKill them all!â
âOhhhhâ!â
They didnât even consider the fact that their targets are 3 kids, they rushed them all at once.
âBunch of trash!â
Laxus raised his palm, magic power and lightning flash poured out from him.
âDie!â
He turned into a golden lightning and made a beeline for the mooks.
âStop him!â
Mogria commanded his men to surround Laxus and shifted his sight onto Noah and Erza.
âThe rest of you deal with the 2 brats!â
3 weaker than average magicians who are too afraid of Laxus charged at Noah and Erza.
âRetreat!â
Knowing that he canât use magic, Erza dauntlessly stood in front of Noah and covered for him while maintaining composure against the oncoming 3 magicians as well as charging up her magic power.
â Requipâ! â
The magic power flowed into her small hands, making them glow radiantly.
When the light rays receded a sword with a wing like guard appeared in her hands.
