Chapter 680 Seiya: Is this all the Ten Wizard Saints are capable of?

"With such a level of light magic, it seems Makarov has taught you quite a bit."

It is clear that Joseph believed that the light magic used by Seiya was taught to him by Makarov.

After all, there aren't many people in the entire Kingdom of Fiore who are skilled in light magic and can reach this level.

Joseph had heard of the name "Sword Dragon" Seijai Lanza, because when he and Makarov got drunk and boasted about how great their respective guilds were, the mages in their guilds naturally became the subject of their comparisons.

At the time, Joseph said that his guild had "four elements" and the strongest mage, Iron Dragon Gajeel.

Makarov then used Gildarts to challenge Joseph, but Joseph retorted, "Fairy Tail, is it only able to use some old guys as a facade?"
To determine whether a mage guild has potential, one should primarily look at the younger generation of mages, not the old fogies.

Joseph's words were also recognized by the other guild leaders, so apart from Gildarts, Makarov could only field other mages in the guild to match him.

Let's not even mention that troublesome grandson of Laxus; Mitsugang's identity can't be exposed; and Mirajane has already chosen to retire...

Therefore, the mages that Makarov chose to face Joseph were "Fairy Queen" Erza and "Blade Dragon" Seiya.

As for Natsu and Gray, they aren't S-class mages yet, so they're not exactly impressive.

Of course, with Natsu and Gray's strength, they would be more than qualified to be S-class mages in Phantom Lord, but Joseph doesn't think so.

Joseph, who was quite drunk at the time, kept bragging about how awesome their guild's Iron Dragon was, and Makarov naturally wasn't going to be outdone.

Because of this incident, Joseph later went to learn about Sanjay.

The Blade Dragon is skilled not only in dragon-slaying magic and physical magic, but also in some elemental magic. There has never been a case of failure in any mission that Seiya has accepted.

And unlike other Fairy Tail mages who always cause huge destruction despite completing their missions.

Seiya's completed commissions always receive high praise from the clients, which has led to him having considerable fame in the magic world despite his low-key personality.

The completion rate and evaluation of a mage's assigned tasks directly affect the mage's reputation and strength.

It was because of Seiya's 100% mission completion rate and extremely high mission rating that he was named a "candidate for the Ten Wizard Saints" by the council.

Joseph had only heard of Seiya before, but this formal meeting made him feel a little envious.

Although he didn't want to admit it, Joseph had to acknowledge that Seiya's strength was far superior to that of their guild's strongest mage, Iron Dragon Gajeel.

"Kid, I'll give you a chance. If you leave Fairy Tail now and join our Dominator of the Rendezvous, I'll spare your life."

Since your "Fairy Tail" is going to be dismantled anyway, choosing a stronger guild like "The Affair Dominator" is the smart thing to do.

No one would complain about having too many excellent and powerful mages. Seiya was so young, yet he had already earned the honor of being named one of the "Ten Candidate Mages of the Holy Grail." So, Joseph was also moved by his talent.

He also wanted to see what kind of expression his arch-rival Makarov would have if he knew that he had successfully poached his prized mage.

"The Ten Wizard Saints are the ten most powerful mages on the continent, as determined by the council members."

Not only does it require immense strength, but it also demands a certain level of prestige and respect from others to earn this title. I originally thought that someone who could be among the Ten Wizard Saints alongside our guild leader must be a powerful mage possessing both strength and integrity.

But now it seems that even among the Ten Wizard Saints, there are some flawed individuals.

Upon hearing Seiya's veiled insults, Joseph's expression instantly turned extremely ugly.

"Kid, are you saying I'm unworthy of my position? I'm not qualified to be one of the Ten Wizard Saints like that guy Makarov?"

"Isn't it obvious? First they ambushed and attacked our guild leader, and then they took advantage of our vulnerability, planning to use the magic cluster cannon to destroy our guild. From beginning to end, they only know how to play petty tricks."

However, you're wrong about one thing: not only is your character unworthy of the title "Ten Wizard Saints," but your strength is also just so-so.

Joseph, who had initially held some admiration for Seiya's talent, was now consumed by a raging inferno because of Seiya's words.

"You sharp-tongued brat, now I'll show you just how big the difference is between a candidate and a real one of the Ten Wizard Saints!"
Dark Magic: Ghost Arrow!

As soon as Joseph finished speaking, he waved his hand and unleashed hundreds of dark arrows that shot towards Seiya.

Faced with the incoming dark arrows, Seiya simply stepped forward alone, and an ice wall instantly formed, easily blocking Joseph's dark magic.

Furthermore, as the ice wall blocked the dark arrows, Seiya's body, which was originally standing behind the ice wall, also disappeared from the spot.

"Lightning Speed ​​+ Sword Dance!"

As two magic circles swept through Seiya's body like a scanner, his body instantly accelerated as if entering a super-accelerated state, transforming into a bolt of lightning and shooting directly in front of Joseph.

As he swung his long sword down, a layer of red light enveloped his entire body.

"Physical magic that increases speed and strength!"

Joseph had not expected that Seiya, who had enhanced his physical abilities with magic, could increase his speed to such an extent in an instant.

When Seiya arrived in front of him, Joseph had no time to dodge the guild, so he could only use dark magic to conjure a shield in front of him.

"Dark Magic: Shield of Death!"

A skull shield formed from the spirits of the dead appeared before Joseph.

But as Seiya's longsword slashed down, a muffled thud rang out, and the black magic shield in front of Joseph was instantly severed in two.

As the shield of death was split in two, the impact of the shield also deflected the longsword in Seiya's hand.

Before Joseph could even breathe a sigh of relief, Seiya clenched his other hand and punched him in the face, which was still in shock!
"Steel Fist - Bone Crusher!"

Joseph's lewd face gradually began to change shape under Seiya's direct punch.

Then, accompanied by a burst of air, Joseph's body was sent flying backward at supersonic speed, breaking the sound barrier and flying out under a ring of shockwaves!
