Fairy Tail: Starting with Fairy Queen Erza

"Boom..."

As for Ian, who was targeted by Gildarts' magic, he was also confined to a corner of Tenrou Island under Gildarts' powerful magic.

"Is that so?"

"Are you forcing me out by unleashing a large-scale shattering spell?"

"Heh! As far as I know, among all the pure human mages on the entire continent of Ishgar, you are the only one who can throw super magic around as basic magic! You really are a monster."

Ian sighed helplessly and addressed Gildarts.

“Where, where…”

Gildarts smiled, his eyes full of smugness.

"However, since that's the case..."

"I'm going to start taking the initiative now."

"The Roar of the Celestial Dragon!!!"

Ian stopped in his tracks, took a deep breath, and unleashed a roar at Gildarts! Instantly, a purple dragon head magic circle appeared in front of Ian, and countless blazing rays of light roared as they attacked Gildarts.

"Celestial Dragon?"

Without hesitation, Gildarts used Crush once again to block Ian's roar. He muttered to himself, "No wonder you attracted 'Moon Dragon' Selene! In that sense, you two are indeed a good match."

"Sparks! Blazing inferno!"

Just as Gildarts seemed to understand something...

The magic circle in front of Ian changed color, from its original elegant purple to crimson, and then unleashed endless flames toward Gildarts.

"flame?"

Gildarts hastily shattered the earth, thus increasing the area he could move around in.

"Mercury! Tides are rising!"

As Ian spoke, he changed the color of the magic circle and the properties of the magic once again, releasing a massive amount of fresh water that engulfed Gildarts.

"Guluuluulu..."

Gildarts frowned, but his expression remained calm.

"Jupiter! The Tree Realm has descended!"

Ian continued to demonstrate his abilities to Gildarts; with a simple clap of his hands, the entire Sirius Island transformed into a sea of ​​trees.

"Forehead……"

"Perhaps Ian is the strongest natural attribute mage on the continent of Ishgar."

Upon hearing this, Warold Sinken looked shocked and exclaimed in disbelief. His entire life's work in nature magic had been so easily surpassed by Ian?!

"Saturn! The Barrier of the Saints!"

This time, Ian touched the ground with both hands and simply lifted it up, creating a huge wall that was over fifty meters wide and over five hundred meters high, and was still growing.

Even Wall Maria from Attack on Titan would have to admit defeat when faced with a wall this tall! Even the Colossal Titan couldn't show its head when it arrived.

"Venus! The mountains are shaking, a star is rising!!"

After Ian demonstrated the four elements of wood, fire, earth, and water, he stood on the massive city wall high in the sky and released a dazzling, enormous starlight.

"boom!!"

Under that terrifying starlight, nearly a quarter of Sirius Island was blasted into ashes. But that wasn't the end of it. The light split the entire sea in two and extended into the depths of the ocean. The sea that Ian had cleaved open was unable to close for a long time.

"Hoohoo!"

The next second, the aftershocks of the starlight transformed into a wave that crashed towards Sirius Island. The terrifying impact destroyed the massive city wall beneath Ian's feet, turning it into countless fragments that filled the missing quarter of Sirius Island.

"boom!"

Ian descended from the sky, slamming his hand on the ground and unleashing his wood-attribute power once more. This created countless enormous trees that covered the rock face that had become part of the island, making it impossible to tell from the surface that their Fairy Tail guild's sacred ground, Tenrou Island, had been severely damaged. And by their own people no less.

"what……"

Not far away, watching Ian unleash multi-attribute dragon-slaying magic, the Fairy Tail members were completely numb, unable to utter a single word.

As for Ian, who had altered the island's terrain, he was silently watching the billowing dust in the distance, cautiously awaiting someone's move.

Yes, as a celestial dragon, Ian can use dragon-slaying magic with various magical elements.

This naturally includes the six elements that correspond to the five divine dragons, or the six divine dragons, namely wood, fire, earth, metal, water, and the moon...

This is also the key reason why Ian was able to easily defeat those young dragons in the simulated timeline: the attributes of the five divine dragons couldn't harm him at all.

"boom!!"

Just as Ian was catching his breath, a tremendous tremor suddenly came from beneath the ruins of the stone wall that Ian had transformed into part of Sirius Island…

Gildarts, who had been buried alive by Ian, broke through these barriers and walked out of the ground step by step, standing in front of Ian.

"Ian, did you have a good time just now?"

Gildarts said, a bright red stain appearing on his forehead. He admitted that he had been a bit too arrogant, standing still and taking the full force of Ian's five-hit Dragon Slayer combo.

"What a monster."

Ian's eyelids twitched slightly; he knew Gildarts was very strong...

After all, if Gildarts wasn't strong enough, he wouldn't have been able to survive against Acnologia in his dragon form. Even Serena, who was strong during the time of the Spriggan 12, was only killed by Acnologia with a single slap, and that was in human form.

But what Ian didn't expect was...

It's unbelievable that Gildarts only suffered such minor injuries after taking so much of his super magic.

As expected of someone in his prime, a man who could go toe-to-toe with Magic King Augustus is incredibly strong.

"You beat me up so badly, and you call me a monster?"

"You're really something, Ian..."

Gildarts' eyelids twitched slightly. Before today, he had forgotten how many years it had been since he had been injured in battle.

Was it when he was known as the strongest in the western part of the Ishgar continent?

Or was it when he was hailed as the strongest modern-day Ishgard?

He forgot, but of course, none of that matters...

The important thing is that he hasn't felt this kind of exhilarating feeling in a long time.

“Ian!!”

Gildarts shouted Ian's name and charged forward.

"Kildarts!!!"

For some reason, Ian was drawn to Gildarts, and he almost roared out Gildarts's name as he charged toward him.

"boom!"

At that moment, their fists collided violently.

In an instant, a powerful shockwave and airflow spread outwards from the point where Ian and Gildarts' fists collided, displacing the surrounding air and creating a vacuum.

When all the super magic is used up...

The fight between Ian and Gildarts returned to the most primal way of fighting between men, and also the purest way of exchanging feelings—a boxing match where every punch landed with flesh.

Well, their magic is exhausted, but they still have a pair of iron fists and can continue fighting.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Punch after punch, bright red blood splattered onto the earth...

The two men were covered in wounds, but neither of them retreated first. As if they had a tacit understanding, they did not use any fringe techniques such as pressing down or grappling. They simply fought each other and threw punches!

“Ian…”

“Kildarts…”

However, it was this purest form of battle that captivated the attention of everyone present.

Their daughters, Erza, Ereshkigal, and Cana, held hands and watched the two fighting, their eyes filled with worry, and their gazes began to moisten.

the other side.

Fairy Tail Guild.

"Don't lose, Ian..."

"I've staked everything on you! Go for it!"

"Kildarts, if you're still a man, beat Ian down!"

As always, the Fairy Tail gamblers supported Ian and Gildarts. Of course, they weren't taking sides, but at this moment, Ian and Gildarts were involved in their lives and fortunes, so they had no choice but to support them.

"Buzz!"

However, just as Ian and Gildarts were about to determine the victor...

Inside the guild hall, the image on the crystal ball suddenly vanished completely.

"what happened?"

"Damn it, stop messing around, where's the footage?"

"This is the crucial moment!"

Immediately, everyone in the Fairy Tail guild began to complain.

"Sorry everyone, the preview has ended. What follows is the paid content."

Just as everyone was puzzled, Warren's voice rang out from the crystal ball.

"Wolverine! Go to hell!"

"Wollen, you absolutely must never go back to the guild, please!"

"I'm afraid I won't be able to resist beating you to death..."

In an instant, the gambling addicts in the entire Fairy Tail guild hall erupted in cheers.

In response, Warren tearfully said, "I'm sorry, but I lost a lot of money in the S-level assessment, so I have to earn it back in other ways!"
