"Could it be because they can't beat them?"
"You bastard! Shut up!"
Gajeel's face darkened. Two years ago, he had challenged Joseph, the Ghost Guild Master who had adopted him, but he was not only utterly humiliated but also thoroughly defeated.
That painful lesson made him clearly realize the gap between himself and the Ten Wizard Saints, and he also understood one thing: the strong can do whatever they want to the weak.
To survive among the Phantom Lords, he had to become stronger, and under Joseph's influence, he also increasingly enjoyed the wails of the weak when he bullied them.
But this... is not what he wanted at all...
"You bastard...you don't understand anything!"
Before he finished speaking, Gajeel's arms instantly transformed into jet-black iron dragon clubs, sweeping towards Hope with a whooshing sound.
Hope was no ordinary man, Salusuk. With a light tap of her feet, she activated the "Divine Foot" spell almost instantly, retreating several meters like a ghost, easily dodging the attack.
The iron dragon staff crashed to the ground, leaving a deep crater.
But Hope's verbal attacks show no signs of stopping.
"Are you in a hurry?"
"Looks like I was right. You really can't beat the 'Ten Wizards'. And yet you still have that 'I'm the best' look on your face."
"Hey, you didn't get a really bad beating from one of the Ten Wizard Saints, did you? That person wasn't your guild master, Joseph, was it?"
"No way, really?"
"Damn it! I'll tear your mouth apart!"
Enraged by being precisely targeted in his sore spot, Gajeel transformed his iron rod into two iron whips, lashing out at Hope with a whooshing sound.
Gajeel wielded his iron whip with impenetrable force, each lash faster and stronger than the last, leaving dozens of deep whip marks on the ground.
But he couldn't even touch the hem of Hope's clothes.
Levy had already led the two sycophants to hide in the distance, nervously watching the battle.
Dorel clenched her fists, her wide eyes filled with disbelief, and asked Levy in a trembling voice, "Levy-chan, I think I'm hallucinating. Our guild's newbie is actually toying with that 'Iron Dragon'..."
Levy sighed, "You're not hallucinating, Hope really is amazing."
Sarusuk, standing to the side, also realized that Hope was using the same magic as him. However, when he used "Divine Footsteps," Gajeel easily caught him, but Hope was able to pull Gajeel back.
They're all the same magic, so why is there such a big difference between them?
"Divine Speed" has too low offensive power. Although Hope can dodge the attacks, it's not enough to defeat Gajeel. What if he accidentally makes a mistake...?
Sarusuk's worries became a reality in the next second.
Because Gajeel's attack had created a dense network of small trenches in the ground, Hope tripped and stumbled forward.
"Hahaha! You idiot! You're finished!"
Gajeel, finally seizing the opportunity, let out a piercing laugh and charged forward, his arms transforming into two sharp iron swords as he slashed at Hope.
Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!
Four consecutive metallic clanging sounds rang out. Gajeel stared in shock at Hope, who was gripping his arms with both hands. His Iron Dragon Sword was incredibly sharp, so how could Hope have taken the blows with his bare body without any injury...?
How could Gajeel know that Hope had just imbued his arms with "metallization"?
Seeing the confusion in Gajeel's eyes, Hope just chuckled, "Do you really think I tripped over something, Gajeel?"
"I just wanted to find an opening so I could catch you!"
Oops!
Gajeel was shocked. He finally realized that he had been led by the nose by this despicable guy from the very beginning. No matter what this guy wanted to do, he had to get away immediately!
"Have you realized it yet?"
Hope's smile instantly turned sinister, sending chills down Gajeel's spine. "Hehe, it's too late, Wood Shape: Rocking Horse!"
Suddenly, a wooden carriage rose up between Gajiru's legs.
This move caught Gajeel completely off guard. His expression changed drastically as he looked at the four wheels attached to the wooden horse beneath him, and he tried with all his might to break free of Hope's grasp.
"Hehe, it's no use."
"Additional Power: Doubled!"
With his power doubled, Hope immediately pinned down the struggling Gajeel.
When Gajeel made intimate contact with the rocking horse's uncomfortable seat, he immediately felt dizzy, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, neck, and back, and his entire face turned pale.
A wooden horse can also be a means of transportation!
Seeing Gajeel slumped on the wooden horse, weakened by the negative effects of the 'Dragon Slayer' magic, Hope gave a triumphant smile.
Upon returning from Dusk Town, he gained not only 'Enchanting Technique' and 'Holy Dragon Slayer', but also invaluable experience in dealing with Dragon Slayer Mages.
With just a vehicle, a mere Dragon Slayer Mage is as easy to destroy as a chicken or a dog.
This is the best way to defeat the Dragon Slayer Mage.
"Bastard...you're so...despicable!"
Gajeel stared at Hope with resentment in his eyes. He hadn't expected that the other party was actually a shapeshifting mage who had deliberately revealed a flaw to lure him into the realm of shapeshifting magic.
That's absolutely shameless!
Hope understood Gajeel's gaze, and without saying a word, simply manipulated the vine seed that Dorell had previously dropped, causing it to grow into a sturdy vine once more.
Plucking at the vines in his hand, Hope's eyes gradually turned sinister, and the smile on his lips became even more lewd. He raised his hand and used the "Enchanting Spell" on the entire wooden carriage, causing the vehicle to sway slightly.
A Trojan horse and a...? It's a match made in heaven!
Hope's vines slowly moved toward Gajeru.
"Wow!"
"You! Don't come any closer!!"
Gajeel's terrified voice echoed through the park as he was tricked, but unfortunately, there was nothing that could help him at that moment.
Not far away, Levy blushed, and for some reason, watching the ongoing "Gajeel Muzan" performance, she felt a tiny bit excited...
Chapter 62 You Have at Least Three Things to Say
“Levy, Sarusuk, and Dorelle.”
Are you alright?
Hope led the wooden cart to the three people in the shadow gear.
Seeing the approaching "pervert" and Gajeel, who was tied to the wooden horse with vines and had a look of utter disarray on his face, Levy and the others instinctively wanted to take a step back, but they stopped themselves.
Even that incredibly arrogant Gajeel was brought down by Hope; if you accidentally offend him, the consequences will be dire...
Looking at the three people with strange expressions, Hope couldn't help but feel embarrassed.
There's no way around it; after all, "Ultimate Insult" and "Kid Head Four" are just too explosive. They've become so popular that even some anime fans who don't read Hong Kong comics have heard of them.
Not to mention Hope, that unlucky guy who once traveled to the magnetic field world.
Although he only spent two years in the magnetic field world, he was still somewhat influenced by those lunatics, so he would sometimes suddenly do some "crazy" things.
Levy quickly regained her composure. "Hope, we're fine, only Sarusuk has a slight sprain."
Hope nodded. "Then you guys should go back and rest. I need to take this guy to find the guild master. The 'Iron Dragon Slayer' magic can only create iron objects, so he must be the one who destroyed the guild."
As Hope rode the wooden cart westward into the city, Levy suddenly called out to him, "Hope, are you really just going to take Gajeel there like this? Isn't that a bit..."
It is offensive to public morals.
Levy ultimately didn't say those four words.
But Hope misunderstood, clapping her hands in realization and saying, "Levy is the most thoughtful. In any case, we should give Gajeel some face."
Hope plucked a soft leaf from a large tree, used the 'Enlargement' spell to enlarge it to the size of a blanket, and then placed it on Gajeel's head.
"Alright, now no one will know he's Gajeel." Hope dusted off his hands and said with a satisfied look.
What exactly are you satisfied with?!
Isn't that even stranger?!
Levy, Sarusuk, and Dorelle all cried out in their hearts, but due to Hope's "perverted" nature, they ultimately chose to remain silent.
After all, Gajeel wasn't a member of the guild.
Let the enemies who are trying to sabotage the guild do whatever they want; they probably won't die anyway... I guess...
After saying goodbye to the Shadow Gear Squad, Hope pulled the wooden cart and paraded Gajeel all the way to the Seishi housing area. Unfortunately, it was late at night and no one was out and about, so the parade was in vain.
When Hope arrived at Makarov's house, he knocked on the door.
The door opened quickly, but to his surprise, it was Erza who opened it.
"Hope? You're here to see the president too?"
Erza, dressed in a casual dress, looked at the person outside the door in surprise, but her attention was immediately drawn to the wooden carriage behind him.
The red-haired girl's face turned red at a visible speed.
In any case, Erza was only a 19-year-old girl, and she had never seen such a thrilling scene before.
"Erza, who's here?"
Seeing Erza frozen in the doorway, Makarov, still in his pajamas, curiously approached. "Oh, it's Hope. What brings you here... Wait! What's that behind you?!"
"Let me tell you, I'm a respectable man!"
Hope's lips curled into a smirk. Isn't this just a cover-up for your indecent behavior...? Everyone knows this old man is a womanizer, yet you're still trying to cover it up with this obvious attempt to hide something.
Pushing aside the "giant" leaves, Hope explained to Erza and Makarov, "This guy is Gajeel, the Iron Dragon mage of 'Phantom Lord'."
"He's the culprit who sabotaged the guild. He attacked the Shadow Gear Squad again tonight, but I ran into him and easily took him down."
Upon hearing that Levy and the other two had been attacked, Makarov and Erza immediately became serious, especially Makarov, who treated all guild members like children.
Makarov had certainly heard of Gagiru's great name.
He couldn't imagine what terrible things would have happened to Levy, Sarusuk, and Dorelle if Hope hadn't appeared in time.
