Seeing this, Joseph cruelly unleashed several spells of the same level as the Dark Spiral, bombarding Hope's entire body in succession.
"Hahaha—"
"You're supposed to have amazing regenerative abilities! Let me see just how resilient you really are!"
Hope was like a sandbag, submerged in the explosion of magic. Although her demonic body's regenerative abilities held up, she was still left with countless wounds all over her body, and blood gushed out.
Just as Joseph was getting carried away with his triumph, Hope's eyes flashed red, and he smashed Joseph's loosened protective shield with a headbutt, locking him tightly with both arms.
"Are you ready to enter hell, Joseph?"
Seeing Hope's maniacal smile, Joseph sensed something was wrong, so he frantically channeled his magic, unleashing even stronger and more ruthless spells than before.
However, despite the magic ravaging his body, Hope did not let go. His purpose was only to control Joseph; his real killing move was someone else.
"Erza!"
Finally hearing Hope's voice, Erza, who had already changed into the "Giant's Armor" and could only endure it before, activated the transformation magic circle again with reddened eyes and anger.
She pulled a massive, jet-black sword, the size of a door panel, from the magic circle with both hands.
Dragon Slayer Seven Strike - Giant Gate Sword!
Although she hasn't had time to tame the seven Dragon Slayer weapons yet, Erza can use the power granted by the "Giant Armor" to forcibly wield the "Giant Gate Sword," which changes according to the wielder's will.
Erza mustered all her strength to lift the Greatsword and swung it down at Joseph. With her will, the black greatsword instantly gained a weight of tens of thousands of pounds.
Unable to withstand the inertia transmitted by the power of the Giant Sword, Erza's giant armor shattered the moment she swung the sword, and her arm even made a faint cracking sound.
"Madman! Madman!"
Joseph sensed Hope's willingness to die with him and Erza's resolute determination, and for the first time felt a pang of regret. He shouldn't have provoked Fairy Tail.
But it's too late to regret it now.
At the critical moment, Joseph hardened his heart and unleashed all his magic at once, leaving several transparent holes in Hope's body.
Hope could no longer hold on and was sent flying backward.
But Joseph still couldn't escape Erza's sword; his left leg was severed by the giant sword that sent the powerful brick flying.
"Ah ah ah ah ah!"
"You! You two damned lunatics!"
Joseph used magic to stop the bleeding, then glared at the powerless Hope and Erza with a ferocious expression, "I'm going to cut you into a thousand pieces! Chop you into mincemeat!"
But Joseph's expression changed as soon as he uttered those harsh words.
Behind him, Makarov, now back to his original size, was floating there.
His head was bowed, the shadows obscuring his expression, but the suppressed rage, like that of a volcano about to erupt, made Joseph feel as if his blood was freezing.
Makarov witnessed Joseph's ambush of his children, saw Lucy in grave danger, and saw Natsu, Gray, and the others bravely fight the Ten Wizard Saints for their comrades!
Upon seeing Hope and Erza, he crippled Joseph's leg in a manner that was almost self-harming.
As the president and as a parent, his sore spot was completely touched!
Makarov slowly raised his head. His eyes no longer held their usual kindness, but instead a chilling killing intent that had not been seen for a long time. The golden magic was no longer just dazzling, but carried a heavy, suffocating pressure like a mountain!
"Joseph, you have crossed the line."
Before he finished speaking, a white sphere of light, formed between Makarov's hands which were held horizontally in front of him, suddenly erupted, and the blinding light instantly enveloped the entire city of Ork.
Absolute Judgment Magic: Fairy Law.
launch.
Chapter 77 Magic Over Life
The gloomy sky was instantly shattered by the platinum-gold light, and the swirling, rampaging dark soldiers, like ice and snow exposed to sunlight, silently screamed and vanished into nothingness.
"what--"
Joseph let out a desperate and unwilling roar. The excruciating pain in his broken leg and the feeling of his magic being completely suppressed drove him mad.
He desperately tried to activate the remaining dark magic within his body to build a defense, but all resistance seemed futile in the face of that cold light that represented absolute judgment.
Watching Joseph helplessly swallowed by Makarov's magic, the Fairy Tail members, who were also within the range of the light, had a different expression.
"What's with this beam of light?!"
"So warm...so dazzling..."
"Why are we alright?!"
"..."
Helped up by Natsu, Hope, panting heavily, stared intently at the small figure in the center of the light, muttering to himself, "'Fairy Law,' is this the all-encompassing holy light Mirajane spoke of...?"
"The laws of fairies? What are those?"
"You've been in the guild for seven years, don't tell me you didn't know?" Hope tilted his head, his tone incredulous, as he looked at Natsu's blank expression.
Natsu's eyes were filled with innocent stupidity, and he subconsciously scratched his head. "Huh? Should I know?"
Hope had only heard Mirajane mention it briefly, so he subconsciously assumed that Natsu also knew about "Fairy Law," but now it seems that's not the case.
Erza, supported by Lucy, walked over. "Hope, Natsu really doesn't know about 'Fairy Law.' Only after becoming an S-class rank can one learn about this magic from the guild master."
It's magic that only S-class mages can understand!
Everyone looked at Erza, their eyes filled with curiosity.
Erza thought for a moment. Since Makarov had already used this move in front of everyone, it wouldn't hurt for her to reveal a little more information that everyone already knew.
"Fairy Law" is a judgment magic created by Mavis, the first guild master of Fairy Tail, which can emit a terrifying mental intimidation.
"Using holy light to vanquish darkness will only harm enemies within the spell's range that the caster has identified, regardless of their number..."
"It is one of the few legendary 'super magic'."
"Our guild actually had two more spells like this, but due to the untimely death of our first guild master, they couldn't be passed down..."
Listening to Erza's introduction, everyone's faces were filled with pride and anticipation.
Hope was also filled with excitement; he had been cramming on magical cheese since arriving in this world.
"Super magic" and "forbidden magic" have always been synonymous with absolute power in the magic world.
"Forbidden magic" is prohibited by the council because its power is too great and its use may lead to serious consequences.
"Super magic" refers to magic with power far exceeding that of ordinary magic. Its full name is "super-advanced magic," and it is magic that only mages with exceptionally high magical power are qualified to use.
If an ordinary mage forcibly casts super magic or forbidden magic, not only will the success rate be terribly low, but they will also suffer from a fatal magic deficiency because their magic power is insufficient to support the terrifying consumption.
As the light gradually faded, Hope looked at Natsu beside her and said, "Natsu, give me a bite of your fire."
"Huh? Oh."
Natsu realized that the person he was supporting was also a Dragon Slayer Mage, and immediately gathered a ball of Dragon Slayer Flame in his hand, which Hope inhaled into his stomach.
In just a moment, Hope's depleted magic and stamina recovered somewhat. It has to be said that the side effects of Dragon Slayer Magic are indeed unbearable, but they are insignificant compared to its advantages.
Taking a deep breath, Hope once again received the power of Deliora's soul and rushed into the light that enveloped Makarov and Joseph.
This scene left Natsu completely dumbfounded.
There are actually people in this world who are even more reckless than him!
Although Makarov's "Fairy Law" wouldn't harm them, its overwhelming magic was real; forcing their way through would only put pressure on them.
With Hope's current physical condition, even if she used Deliora's power, she would absolutely not be able to withstand the pressure brought by Makarov's powerful magic.
"Ignore him."
Erza stopped Natsu, who wanted to bring Hope back.
She had already deduced that Hope possessed the ability to copy other people's magic, so she understood that the guy was envious of Makarov's magic.
The reason Hope rushed forward was because Makarov would never easily resort to the "fairy's law," and this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
When the light faded, everyone saw Joseph, whose skin was deathly pale and who looked as if he had aged more than ten years. Despair and fear were frozen on his face.
Behind Joseph, who stood motionless like a stone statue, lay Makarov and Hope, who lay unconscious on the ground. Beneath him, the shattered ground vaguely revealed the outline of a giant fist.
Everyone's eyes instinctively focused on Makarov.
The old man said somewhat embarrassedly, "This kid suddenly barged in, making me think it was one of those two ghost mages hiding in the shadows attacking me, so I accidentally went a little too far with that gigantic punch..."
Everyone nodded; it was a very reasonable explanation.
But there are still some who slipped through the net and are hiding in the shadows...
Without Makarov and Erza even having to say a word, Natsu, a Dragon Slayer mage, used his keen sense of smell to spot Aria and Thor hiding in the nearest building ruins.
"The Fire Dragon's Roar!"
Natsu launched an attack on Aria and Sol without hesitation. Since he hadn't managed to get a good score in the previous battle, he couldn't let these two resurrected mini-bosses get away this time.
Arya Sol, who thought he had hidden himself well, originally planned to make a final stand by ambushing Makarov, but he did not expect to be exposed so quickly.
Having been defeated by Elfman and Erza in succession, they already had very little magic left. Facing Natsu, who was in perfect condition, they were instantly defeated without any chance to fight back.
Hope slowly woke up amidst screams and explosions, and the moment she opened her eyes, all her attention was drawn to the system notification in her mind.
[Detected that the host encountered multiple extraordinary powers during combat, which have been automatically recorded—Lifeform Magic 'Giant', Super Judgment Magic 'Fairy Law', 'Dark' Magic, 'Fire' Magic]
Analysis complete.
[It is estimated that it will take 56 days to break the 'Giant' spell]
It is estimated that it will take 100 days to crack the "Fairy Laws".
[It is estimated that it will take 30 days to break the 'dark' magic]
[It is estimated that it will take 12 days to break the 'Fire' spell]
Ignoring the last two spells he had collected from Joseph and Rabbit Maru, Hope beamed with joy, momentarily forgetting even the pain all over his body.
Hehe, I got two super powerful spells.
Even if that old man punches me again, it'd be worth the ticket price!
Looking at Hope sprawled on the ground, grinning foolishly, Erza and Mirajane, who had just been worried about him, exchanged a glance. Had the guild master knocked him out of his mind...?
