"Since you've chosen to betray, then turn to pieces along with these people!"
"Wait a minute! Midnight!"
Cobra stopped fighting Mystogan and leaped between Richard and Midnight. "Richard... no, Hot Eye, he must have been affected by Mystogan's magic, causing a problem with his brain. Give him some time, and he will definitely be able to return to his original state."
"Eric, I am who I am."
Eric called out Cobra's real name, "I hope you won't work for Brian anymore. He's been lying to me all along, and he might even know where Sora is."
“I’m sorry, Richard, my wish is not to find my family…” A moment of struggle flashed across Cobra’s face, but in the end he stood firmly on Brian’s side.
Richard understood.
Each of the six demons had a wish that sustained them.
Richard wants to find his brother, whom he was forced to separate from.
The cobra wanted to hear the voice of his best friend, the large purple serpent.
Laser wants to become the fastest person in the world.
"Angel" Sora longs to disappear into the sky like an angel.
At midnight, I hope I can sleep undisturbed.
Richard had no idea what Brian's wish was.
With things having come to this point, Cobra stopped trying to stop Richard, and the two immediately started fighting. Magical fluctuations continued, causing the ground to collapse and the poisonous dragon to roar.
At midnight, watching the massive impact of the magical clash between the two sides, he snorted coldly. Did that Cobra guy really think he couldn't see it?
"Divine Ear" versus "Heavenly Eye"—one can "hear" and the other can see. In addition, their magical abilities are roughly equal, making their fight appear incredibly intense. However, in reality, neither Richard nor Cobra can break through their moves.
He raised his hand towards Richard and Cobra, and powerful, twisted magic coalesced once more. "Trying to fool me? You might as well go to hell hand in hand."
However, before he could cast his spell, a calm voice rang in his ear.
"Your opponent is me."
Startled at midnight, he turned around abruptly and saw Hope, who had walked out of the torn space unharmed, standing beside him, examining the distorted force field around him with great interest.
For the first time, an expression of disbelief appeared on Midnight's face.
His "Twisting" magic is an almost invincible defensive and offensive tactic; no one has ever been able to break free from it so easily.
"Your magic is very interesting, but its drawbacks are..."
Hope smiled slightly, and her figure suddenly blurred.
Midnight's pupils contracted sharply as he unleashed his full power to distort magic, turning the space around him into a bizarre, funhouse mirror-like environment where any magic would be deflected or blocked.
But Hope's movements were completely unaffected. He strolled through the layers of distorted space as if walking on air, and thus arrived openly before Midnight.
A simple, unadorned straight punch, accompanied by a deafening roar as it tore through the air, slammed into Midnight's face.
In the haste of midnight, he gathered the power of distortion in front of him, forming an invisible spatial shield. When his fist and shield clashed, there was no earth-shattering explosion, only a muffled, strange sound.
The distorting force field, like glass, was struck by the 80-pound sledgehammer, instantly becoming cracked before shattering with a deafening roar. The powerful backlash caused the property manager to grunt and fly backward.
"Midnight!" Brian exclaimed in shock and anger.
His most prized son, with his powerful "Twisting" magic, couldn't even withstand a single punch from his opponent? Just what kind of monster is this Hope?!
He struggled to get up and help, but Hope just glanced at him casually. An invisible, heavy pressure suddenly descended, as if a mountain was pressing down on him, forcing his body, which he had just lifted, back to the ground, so that he couldn't move a single finger.
"Stay put," Hope said calmly, turning her gaze back to Midnight, who was struggling to get up.
On the other side, due to Richard's sudden defection, the battle situation for Gray and the others was instantly reversed.
The massive forest of rocky thorns not only divided the battlefield but also severely damaged a large number of dark mages, greatly reducing the pressure on Gray, Leo, and the others. They took the opportunity to join the host trio and Sherry to begin clearing out the remaining minions.
Moreover, since Midnight went up to find Hope and the pain was gone, and Cobra pretended to fight Richard, Mistgang and Nazten were able to take action and deal with another powerful enemy.
"The Roar of the Fire Dragon!"
"Fivefold Magic Array - Kagura".
The intense flames, along with the beams of light generated by the five-layered magic array, blasted towards Joseph.
Are the Oración Seis members really this unreliable?!
Joseph was furious, but he had to distract himself from the incoming magical attack.
Actually, Natsu's attack isn't too much of a concern because he's already out of "Dragon Power" mode. However, we must be extremely careful with Mystogan's Magic Joseph, as the consequences could be severe if we're not careful.
A massive pink sword aura swept out, and wherever it passed, the ghostly soldiers melted away like snow under the sun.
Wearing pink "fairy armor," Erza seized the opportunity when Joseph was distracted, quickly exploiting his weakness. Her sword flashed like rain, and her attack was like a storm, instantly adding several shallow new wounds to Joseph's body.
Damn it!
Joseph roared, and dark magic surged forth like a tidal wave, forcefully shattering the flames and magical pillars. He then unleashed a violent dark magic spell at Erza.
Erza's eyes were sharp as she swung her fairy sword, and a huge dragon shadow formed by magic appeared behind her.
The Holy Dragon's Sword Claw!
The powerful dragon-slaying magic crashed down with the slash, colliding violently with the dark torrent, resulting in a stalemate.
Joseph's eyes widened. Last time they fought, Erza was easily overpowered by him. How could she be on par with him in just over a month?
What Joseph didn't know was that since Erza was inlaid with the Holy Dragon Slayer Crystal by her wise dragon uncle, although she had learned the 'Holy Dragon Slayer' magic, she had never had time to focus on training.
It wasn't until after the Tower of Paradise incident that she finally took her dragon-slaying magic seriously.
Perhaps due to her mother Irene and the Wise Dragon Belserion, Erza's compatibility with the "Dragon Slayer" magic is ridiculously high, almost perfect.
Her training in "Saint Dragon Slayer" was incredibly fast, and her strength increased dramatically in less than half a month.
Although Erza's strength is still some distance from that of Joseph, who is at the level of the "Ten Wizard Saints," she is confident that she can remain undefeated. Moreover, with Mystogan around, it seems not impossible for her to defeat Joseph.
Unfortunately, Natsu's "Dragon Power" state had passed, otherwise she would have been absolutely certain of defeating Jose.
Chapter 135 Listening to the Voice of Defeat
Brian and Midnight were thoroughly beaten, Cobra was locked in a tug-of-war with Heat Eye and couldn't break free, Laser had already been defeated, and Angel was missing again.
Gerald intercepted Jura and Ichiya, but wasn't he also held back by Jura and Ichiya?
Damn it... I was fully prepared this time, much better than during the Phantom Lord era, so why did it turn out like this?
Joseph knew that all was lost.
Having the urge to retreat, he waved his hand, and dark magic transformed into a black curtain that could block out vision, spreading outwards. Joseph, however, quietly slid backwards, trying to slip away in the chaos.
However, Mystgon had already discovered Joseph's intentions.
A magic wand had somehow appeared in his retreat path, its magic circle flashing and forming a powerful gust of wind that instantly tore through the veil of darkness.
Where do you want to go?
Erza's cold voice rang out, "You were once one of the Ten Wizard Saints, yet you want to run away in defeat? You've truly fallen to the lowest level."
Joseph's face turned extremely ugly at being pointed at and criticized by a junior. He roared, "You all don't understand anything!"
Why do we need to understand this?
Natsu has never liked beating around the bush, and what Joseph does is none of his business. All he knows is that this may be his only chance to fight against a powerful figure who has been given the title of "Ten Wizards" before he becomes an S-class mage.
I'll definitely brag about it a lot when I get back.
You can also mock Gray for not even getting a seat at the table.
The thought of his childhood rival being subservient to him from now on made Natsu feel cheerful. "You greasy old man from Phantom Lord! Hope stole the spotlight last time, but we'll take it again this time!"
"Fire Dragon's Wing Attack!"
Natsu, engulfed in flames, hurtled towards Joseph like a meteor. His massive fiery dragon wings swept across, colliding violently with the dark magic Joseph had gathered.
Amid the explosion, Natsu staggered backward.
Joseph withdrew his hand with a livid face. If it were Natsu in his Dragon Power form, he would indeed be wary of him, but what right did a normal Natsu have to act so arrogantly towards him?
"You've really been looked down upon!"
"Darkness Corrosion!"
The moment Joseph raised his hand, a massive amount of dark magic unexpectedly enveloped Natsu. However, Erza and Mystogan were not just spectators; swords and magic followed in quick succession.
Erza and Mystogan's threat was clearly far greater than what Natsu could normally handle, so Jose had no choice but to abandon his ongoing magic and turn to fight.
On the other side...
Midnight retreated while casting a spell at Hope, who was slowly approaching, "Space Distortion!"
“Twisted, huh?” Hope braced against the distorted space and slapped Midnight across the face.
Even my father has never hit me like this! After being taken away from the Tower of Paradise by Brian, Midnight was stunned for a moment, but the magic in his hands dared not stop for a moment.
"Space tear!"
"Tearing, huh?"
"The Spiral of Pain!"
"A spiral, right?"
"......"
Ignoring the "twist" magic, Hope slapped Midnight's face again and again, each slap delivered with just the right amount of force, leaving him stunned but not mentally damaged.
Feeling so humiliated, Midnight was furious.
He clasped his hands together abruptly, and a massive surge of magical power, far exceeding anything he had experienced before, emanated from him.
A massive purple magic circle appeared beneath his feet, its constantly rotating surface displaying complex and eerie magical patterns, emanating a chilling aura.
A long, drawn-out bell rang out in the dead of night.
In an instant, the light bent, the scenery distorted, and Midnight suddenly transformed into a gigantic humanoid monster, roaring and slamming its enormous hand down on Hope.
"Wow, it can even transform!"
Hope chuckled. "Unfortunately, no matter how terrifying you look right now, it's all fake."
Hope took a step forward, and silver ripples began to spread around him like water. He raised his hand, and silver-white light flowed from his fingertips.
