Fairy Tail: You said you were just acting, are you serious

"hateful!"

The eldest son frowned, and quickly vented his anger on the round blade, kicking it away, causing it to fall from the prison tower.

The guards on Gulogu's side were also stunned, as Director Tochi disappeared before their very eyes.

Just then, a guard fixed his gaze on the sky and pointed in the direction of his line of sight.

"Look up there?!"

Everyone on the prison tower looked up and saw a large, ink-wash bird circling above them.

Taking advantage of his eldest son's moment of relaxation, Ron used the Flying Thunder God Technique to safely teleport Toki Andeba onto the bird's back.

"What's the situation now?"

Toki Anderba looked at Ron, who had pulled him over, with a look of horror. He had just escaped from the Five Bridges family, so how did he end up here again?

Could this boy be in cahoots with the Wutiaoqiao family?

"Mr. Toki Anderba, you are safe now."

Councilor Toki turned around and realized that there were not only Ron and himself on the giant bird's back, but also a female mage and two boys behind it.

"You, you're the Ice-Shape Mage, Ul?!"

Do you know me?

Uru was slightly taken aback, not expecting to be recognized.

Just as Toki Anderba was about to speak, Ron interrupted him.

"Excuse me, Mr. Councilor, let's chat another time when it's more appropriate."

"Ahem, that's right, we still have important business to attend to."

After Toki Anderba recognized Uru, his initial doubts about Ron dissipated considerably.

Since the famous mage Uru is in league with this boy, it proves that they are opposed to the Gojohashi family.

Ron nodded, then began to control the ink-wash bird to land.

"That's right, let's go down first."

Phew~!

The large bird descended slowly, eventually adjusting its course in mid-air and landing safely in the open space behind the prison tower guards.

The sudden descent of the large bird alerted the warden, Gulogu, and the guards, who gripped their weapons tightly.

Only when they saw that their Director Toki was sitting on the back of the large bird did everyone lower their guard.

"Director Tochi, are you alright?"

Councilor Toki jumped off the giant bird, followed by Ron and the others, who then joined up with Gurog.

"I'm fine, they saved me."

Only after confirming that the warden was safe and sound and that Ron and his men posed no threat did all the guards, including Gulogu, finally relax.

"Thank you so much for saving the director. We owe you a favor."

Gulogu bowed to Ron and the others to express his gratitude.

"President, they're playing us!?"

The mages from the Gojohashi family on the other side all looked angry, realizing they had been tricked.

Doram Bee and his eldest son also looked at Toki Anderba on the other side with unfriendly expressions.

Warden Toch then glared at Dolam of the Five Bridges family and gave orders to the guards.

"Now that we've completed the deal, all five bridges are one family. Today, all of you are staying in this BLACKVOX. Not one of you is leaving!"

"Hmph, although the plan changed a bit, you still let me out."

Upon hearing Toch's boastful words, Doram sneered, showing no fear whatsoever.

Doram Bee faced the guards with a smug look in his eyes.

"And who said we're leaving? Our plan is to take over BLACKVOX!"

From this day forward, this magical prison belongs to the Gojohashi family!

"What?!"

Toki Anderba looked shocked, never expecting that from the very beginning their ultimate plan was to take over BLACKVOX.

"What's so shocking? Because BLACKVOX is an impregnable fortress, isn't that the best place for us fugitives from a dark guild?"

Doram laughed loudly, his arrogant laughter echoing through the prison tower and resounding throughout the entire magical prison.

He turned around and looked at his eldest son standing to the side.

"Son, have you prepared what I asked for?"

"We are ready."

The eldest son smiled slightly and took out a semi-transparent control panel, displaying it to the guards.

"Oh no, that's the prison's control panel?!"

Gu Luogu was stunned. He was shocked to find that the Wutiaoqiao family had taken a guard away while they were not paying attention, and had also taken the control panel from his hand!

"Unlocked!"

After the eldest son completed the unlocking, all the black cubes floating in the air, except for the bottom one, disintegrated and released all the criminals!

Dorram then spread his arms and began shouting at all the criminals.

"Can you hear me, all you criminals? I have something to announce!"

Just now, I granted you your freedom!

"If you all want revenge, then get rid of all the guards and the rest of the unimportant people!"

Following Doram's declaration, all the released criminals responded enthusiastically, causing a great uproar.

Toki Andba and Gulogu broke out in a cold sweat. There were just too many people to deal with now; they couldn't possibly handle it all.

Uru and Gray frowned slightly; they hadn't expected things to turn out this way.

"What should we do now, Ron...?"

Ron, who had been watching from the sidelines, had already warmed up, which surprised Uru and the others.

"What else can we do but fight?"

In fact, Ron had seen the Gojo Bridges family's little scheme while he was on the bird's back, but he didn't specifically stop them. After all, as long as Toki Anderba rescued them, that was enough. As for the rest, he would just have to see how things developed.

He wouldn't mind having a few dozen more opponents to deal with, since he needs to increase his current role-playing ability and magic power limit, so the more the better.

The Wutiaoqiao family is so kind. They know I need these things and they're still working so hard. When it's my turn to deal with them, I'll be quick and knock them out before they feel any pain.

After warming up, Ron suddenly paused for a moment.

He sensed a familiar magical energy fluctuation approaching them.

Ron gave a helpless smile. How could he run into an acquaintance here?

In this case, do I still need to take action?

"Wait, stop right there!"

"Don't touch or hug me indiscriminately!"

Just then, a girl's shout came from among the guards, attracting the attention of everyone present.

Suddenly, a middle-aged man with short, reddish-brown hair appeared among them, embracing two female guards and flirting with them.

"Quick, grab him!?"

The guards swarmed around him, watching the man warily.

"Wait, let him let me do it."

Ron persuaded the guards to disperse, and they made way for him so that he could approach.

He crossed his arms, rolled his eyes, and kicked the uncle's pert buttocks.

"Hey, Gildarts, can't you even read the room?"

Now that you've entered the game, isn't this turning into a noob-stomping match?
