Thor pulled Hope to Juvia's side, pointed at the unconscious white-haired girl in the water sphere, and laughed, "Fairy Tail S-mage, Majin Mirajane, do you think this fish is big or not?"
"I don't know what's wrong with this Mirajane. Her strength is no different from that of an ordinary person. Before I could even make a move, she fainted in the water sphere that Lady Juvia casually conjured up."
Hope's pupils contracted, and a flash of anger appeared in his eyes, but Juvia and Thor did not notice anything amiss. He asked with a slightly humble tone, "My lords, what do you intend to do with her?"
"What should we do with it? Of course, we'll leave it to Lord Joseph."
Thor continued, "Although she's lost her power, she's a great beauty, and a member of Fairy Tail. After Lord Joseph finishes enjoying her, I reckon everyone will be lining up to have her."
Thor was still lost in his lewd daydreams, completely unaware that Hope and Juvia were looking at him differently now.
As a woman herself, Juvia also despised people like Saul. If Mirajane was really going to be treated that way, she wouldn't mind helping her leave with dignity, but...
Juvia suddenly turned to Hope and asked, "What's with that expression?"
At this moment, Hope's obsequiousness had vanished without a trace, and she exuded an air of elusiveness and unfathomable mystery.
Thor noticed Hope's change and felt his indifferent gaze. He said unhappily, "Hey, you piece of trash, you don't think you can take advantage of me just because I'm giving you a little face, do you?"
"Actually, I didn't want things to fall apart so quickly, but who could have imagined that you would insist on courting disaster?"
Hope exhaled slowly, her icy gaze sending a chill down Thor's spine. "You piece of trash, are you trying to defy Lord Thor? Do you even want to stay in the guild anymore?!"
"I did not join the Phantom Lords."
Hope sneered, and a ball of flame in her hand suddenly burst into a blinding light. "Let's set off some fireworks."
"Holy Emperor - Fire Dragon's Flame Bullet!"
Chapter 69 The advantage is mine (laughs)
A blazing flame instantly materialized in Hope's hand, its holy golden light illuminating the dimly lit prison area as if it were daytime.
"This power..."
Sensing the power of the flames, Thor took two steps back in astonishment, his eyes widening behind his monocle. "Who are you?!"
Thor's angry and shocked question was drowned out by the explosion in the next second.
A dazzling burst of firelight, imbued with divine radiance, erupted with a deafening roar, as scorching magical flames rolled and swept outwards.
Even though Thor unleashed a thick earthen wall for defense, it was instantly breached, and he was violently thrown back, traversing the Ghost Hall and crashing heavily into a distant wall.
The deafening explosion sent sparks flying up to the guild roof, and rubble and wood chips rained down, plunging the entire Phantom Lord headquarters into chaos. Bottles and gambling paraphernalia were scattered everywhere.
Thor stood up awkwardly, his monocle shattered and part of his mustache singed. He looked up in horror at the prison area that had been mostly melted.
In the dissipating flames, a figure appeared whose golden flames were gradually dying out.
Hope, holding the unconscious Mirajane, looked at Juvia, who was unharmed by the fireball explosion, and said in a voice only the two of them could hear, "Your water magic is very strong, but why did you just watch me save Mirajane?"
Juvia remained expressionless, holding her umbrella, and her voice was completely flat. "The president's order is to capture Lucy Heartfilia and bring her back."
“If Saul hadn’t been pestering me, Juvia wouldn’t have bothered to grab the woman you’re holding. And even if we had her, what does it matter to Juvia if Saul couldn’t keep her?”
As soon as Jubia finished speaking, she left.
Hope's lips twitched; what she said made a lot of sense...
Juvia now gives Hope the same feeling as the old handyman she used to encounter when she was working for someone else—purely a slacker with a "what the hell" mentality unless the boss gives a strict order.
Lucy, having broken free of her restraints, came up behind Hope. Mirajane's capture had disrupted their plans, but their guildmates were still a while away.
"Hope, what do we do next?"
Lucy glanced at the large number of Phantom Mages gathered in the hall; she roughly counted at least 100.
Among them are two executives, Juvia and Thor, and if nothing unexpected happens, Joseph, the leader of the Phantom Lords, and the other two "Phantom Four Elements" should also be here.
Hope handed Mirajane to Lucy and scattered a circle of seeds around them. Under the influence of the 'plant' magic, these seeds instantly grew into a circle of magical plants, protecting the two of them in the middle.
"Don't worry, unless a mage of Thor's caliber attacks you, these small fry won't have the power to break through these plants."
Hope's words reassured Lucien considerably, and she then subconsciously asked, "And what about you, Hope? You're not planning to go and fight them head-on, are you?"
Hope chuckled, and although he didn't answer, Lucy understood what he was thinking.
After giving him a reassuring look, Hope walked out of the dilapidated prison area and faced the group of Phantom Mages who were watching him nervously.
Hope spotted Thor hiding in the crowd at a glance and laughed mockingly, "You can't even withstand one of my moves? Your so-called Phantom Earth is truly disappointing."
Having been humiliated like this in front of so many people, Thor was furious. He shoved aside the mage in front of him, pointed at Hope, and roared, "He only managed a sneak attack, yet he dares to spout nonsense here! Ghostbringers, take him down!"
However, the surrounding ghost mages looked at each other, and none of them dared to step forward first.
They had clearly witnessed the power of that flame, which contained a divine aura; even Lord Thor was blasted away with a single blow, and no one wanted to be the first to stick their neck out.
"A bunch of useless trash!"
Thor cursed under his breath and slammed his hands into the ground: "Earth Magic: Rock Concerto!"
Several hard rock projectiles whistled as they hurtled toward Hope.
Hope didn't even move a step; she simply raised her hand casually, and golden flames flapped like dragon wings, easily melting the rocks into crimson magma that dripped to the ground with a "sizzling" sound.
"How is this possible?!" Thor stared in disbelief as his magic was so easily neutralized. He had been trying to salvage his reputation, but instead, he lost even more face.
"Your earth magic is too slow and too weak."
Hope shook his head, then his gaze swept across the entire hall. "The Spectre Ruler, nothing special. Who else can fight? Let's all come at once, so I don't have to search for them one by one."
These arrogant remarks finally enraged the Phantom Lord mages.
"That's outrageous!"
"Let him know how powerful the Phantom is!"
"There are over a hundred of us, what are we afraid of!"
"100 to 1, the advantage is in my hands!"
"Let's go together!"
"..."
All sorts of magical lights instantly lit up, ice spikes, wind blades, lightning, water guns... dozens of magical attacks came from all directions towards Hope.
Faced with such a dense attack, Hope smiled, a golden magic circle unfolding beneath his feet, its radiance enveloping his entire body.
"Holy Radiance - Holy Flame Iron Scales".
Instantly, a protective force field composed of holy, fire, and iron elements appeared around Hope's body.
The Spectre mages' magic created ripples on the protective force field, but beneath these ripples, an even hotter and more dazzling holy fire erupted, retaliating at incredible speed in the direction of the attack.
Little did the Ghost Mages know that Hope's defensive field had a counterattack capability, and they were caught off guard by the counterattack of the Holy Flame, which completely shattered it.
Many people were blown away by the heatwave, and those who were weaker even fainted on the spot with their eyes rolling back.
In an instant, screams and wails rose and fell, and the entire hall of the Ghost Headquarters was engulfed in flames, with the air seemingly filled with the smell of burning.
With a simple skill, he could clear out the mobs without moving, and the magic was quite dazzling. Hope was very satisfied with the new magic, "Dragon King - Holy Radiance".
Although the previous three Dragon Slayer spells can still be used now, and their power has been enhanced by the 'Holy Emperor', just like the Fireball from before.
But people always prefer things that look more handsome or beautiful, especially new things that are more powerful.
Chapter 70 The Beast King's Roar
Thor finally abandoned his gentlemanly elegance and awkwardly dodged the spreading flames. His earth magic was almost useless against Hope's holy flames.
Damn it, why did it turn out like this!
Thor chose Hope to infiltrate Fairy Tail because he was an ordinary person without magic, making him easy to control and unlikely to arouse suspicion within Fairy Tail.
But I never expected that after just over a month, the ordinary person I thought I knew would not only have mastered magic, but also be so powerful.
He pretended to be weak to take advantage of you!
Thor finally realized what was happening, but it was too late for regrets.
"Hey, Thor, do you need help?"
A lazy male voice came from the second floor. Saul and Hope looked up at the same time and saw two people standing on the second-floor railing.
On the left is a young man wearing a red coat, with black and white hair, and holding a samurai sword. He is none other than Usagi-maru, the Fire of the Four Elements of Ghosts.
On the right is a tall man wearing a green robe, with a blindfold around his eyes and tears streaming down his face. Despite his unassuming appearance, he is the most trusted confidant of Joseph, the leader of the Phantom Guild—Aria, the "Air Elemental," the leader of the four Phantom elements.
"It's Lady Aria and Lady Usagi-maru!"
A Phantom Mage exclaimed in delight, the arrival of the two executives greatly boosting the morale of the remaining Phantom Mages.
Rabbit Maru glanced at the carnage in the hall, raised an eyebrow, and looked at Hope with some surprise: "A flame with holy attributes, interesting. If you weren't an enemy, I would definitely ask you how you did it."
"But unfortunately, kid, you can't afford the consequences of causing trouble in the Wraiths."
"Then I'll take responsibility!"
Before the slightly angry voice could reach everyone's ears, the tightly closed doors of the Ghost Headquarters were violently blasted open.
Everyone turned to look, and the newcomers turned out to be a large group of Fairy Tail mages.
Leading the way was none other than Makarov, one of the current "Ten Wizard Saints" and the guild master of Fairy Tail.
Behind Makarov were Erza, Natsu, Gray, Elfman, Cana... almost all the members of Fairy Tail.
The first thing Makarov did upon returning to the stage was to look at Hope, his eyes full of inquiry.
Hope pointed to a circle of magical plants on the other side, "Guild Master, the Spectre Ruler openly kidnapped Lucy and Mirajane, but I arrived in time and stopped these evil people before they were persecuted."
Mirajane was indeed in trouble.
Fortunately, Hope saw them.
Makarov, who had been increasingly worried about Miran along the way, could finally put his mind at ease.
Hearing Hope and Makarov's conversation, Thor immediately understood why Hope would send Lucy to the Phantom Lords. It was clearly to give Fairy Tail a legitimate excuse to wage war against them.
He used our tricks!
But even if they realized it now, it was too late. The main force of Fairy Tail had already arrived, and all they could do was fight them.
"Brothers of the Spectres! Don't be afraid! Lord Joseph is behind us..." Thor's words were cut short as the gigantic Makarov slapped him into the wall.
