"The law of the jungle, where the strong prey on the weak, is the very law of the magic world!"
Joseph growled, and dark magic surged once more, enveloping his entire body like a viscous liquid. His body suddenly transformed into a dense mass of darkness, spreading and dissolving into the air as quickly as a drop of ink in water.
Joseph actually used his own magic power as a price to cast a special spell, completely merging himself into the air.
"He's trying to escape!"
Mystergan's eyes narrowed, and he was about to plunge his wand down when Hope raised her hand to stop him.
Hope stared at the gradually dissipating darkness. Just as the darkness that Joseph had become was about to disappear completely, he raised his right hand and loosely clenched his fist.
hum-
The 'Moon God Destroyer' magic circle, hanging high in the sky like a bright moon, trembled slightly and burst forth with cool moonlight, dyeing most of the forest with a silvery-white glow.
Joseph, who was secretly rejoicing at his escape, suddenly felt countless indescribable, cold yet holy magical forces precisely locking onto him from all directions.
A large number of silver moonlight threads gathered in Hope's clenched palm. The silvery-white light suddenly shone brightly, and the threads quickly expanded and stretched, finally transforming into a human-shaped light and shadow that Hope forcibly "pulled" out of the void and slammed hard to the ground.
Joseph crashed to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.
He struggled to get up, only to find that one leg was completely unresponsive. His once-magical prosthetic limb was now crackling with abnormal electric sparks at the joints, and its internal structure had been severely damaged by the magic.
Joseph could only kneel on one knee, using dark magic to support his body. He stared intently at Hope not far away, his eyes filled with bloodshot veins and resentment.
Ever since he was defeated by Makarov using super magic, he has been practicing an escape magic that can circumvent the "fairy law".
But it all seemed so ridiculous in the face of Hope's "Moon God Destroyer" just now.
Last time, Hope could only withstand Deliora's demon soul and his magic, but in just over a month, the opponent has grown to the point where he can threaten his life.
Joseph's voice was hoarse, filled with a desperate madness, "Why...why is it always your fairy tails that get in the way!"
Hope dusted off non-existent dust from his sleeves and walked slowly closer. "Why? Of course, it's because our guild has always been a busybody and can't stand seeing trash like you running wild."
"I broke your leg last time, but it seems you haven't learned your lesson. This time, I'll make sure you're out of the game for good."
Hearing Hope's calm tone, Joseph suddenly burst into maniacal laughter, his dark magic surging violently. "Exit? You? A mere brat who doesn't even have the title of 'Ten Saints'? Hahahaha—"
His smile suddenly turned ferocious. "I am Joseph Paula, the guild master of 'The Ruler of the Spectres' and a former member of the 'Ten Saints'!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Joseph slammed his hands down on the ground.
In an instant, the shadow beneath him twisted and swelled as if it were alive, expanding into a huge dark domain with a diameter of over twenty meters.
Within the realm, light was completely swallowed up, leaving only pure, suffocating darkness.
"Super Magic: Netherworld Hell!"
Countless more solid and powerful ghost soldiers crawled out of the shadows of the domain, their eye sockets burning with dark purple soul fire, emitting silent roars.
The dark realm is like a giant black millstone, ready to slice and shred all life within it, assimilating it into the darkness.
This was Joseph's trump card.
The "Blue Skull," the predecessor of the "Phantom Ruler," possesses a powerful super magic that not only forces enemies within its domain to face endless attacks from powerful phantom soldiers, but also rapidly drains their magic power, stamina, and even life force.
If "Fairy Law" hadn't perfectly countered "Netherworld Hell," Joseph would have used it in his previous battle against Makarov.
"This time... Makarov won't be coming to save you!"
Joseph grinned maliciously, but his face was rapidly turning pale.
Casting this super magic was a huge burden for him, but he couldn't care less. He just wanted to drag these Fairy Tail mages, especially Hope and Erza, down to hell with him!
"Hope! Watch out!" Erza cried out in alarm; she could sense the terror of that dark realm.
Mystogan pulled Erza and Natsu out of the "Dark Realm," then quickly planted his wand, attempting to disrupt the Dark Realm with a magic circle, but his magic circle was instantly shredded to pieces.
Natsu also unleashed Dragon Slayer Flames, but as soon as the flames entered the Dark Realm, the light quickly dimmed and was visibly swallowed by the darkness.
This is the power of super magic; if it cannot surpass most other forms of magic, how can it be worthy of the word "super"?
Faced with the tearing of the Dark Abyss and the swarming of enhanced ghost soldiers from within, Huo slightly raised his head and simultaneously deactivated the 'Moon Godslayer' magic array above his head.
Upon seeing this, Joseph loudly mocked, "What? You don't even have the courage to resist? Hahaha!"
"No, I just felt it would be more ritualistic to defeat you with this magic."
Hope clasped her hands together in front of her chest, one above the other, and as she slightly opened them, a bright golden light suddenly burst forth between her palms.
The Dark Realm and the Enhanced Ghost Soldiers seemed to have encountered their natural enemy, constantly weakened by the golden light, and even showing signs of disintegration.
Staring at the light that had brought him nightmares, Joseph's eyes widened, and he roared in disbelief, "Impossible! You can't possibly have that magic!!"
"Nothing is impossible in this world. Let's use this move to completely end your era and that of the Phantom Lord."
Hope's eyes remained expressionless, but his hand shone brightly.
Super Magic: Fairy Law, activate!
Instantly, a magnificent golden light enveloped the Vas Tree Sea, as if a judgment descended from the heavens, obliterating the ghostly soldiers and the darkness, and falling directly upon Joseph.
Knowing he had failed, Joseph made no struggle, laughing as he opened his arms and calmly accepted the super magic that was enough to destroy his mind.
"Hahaha!"
"You think you've won? No!"
"As long as darkness exists, the 'specters' lurking in the shadows will never disappear! I will be watching you from hell—"
Fairy Tail!
Chapter 138 After the Light Faded
The golden light gradually faded.
Hope lowered her hand, slightly out of breath.
"Fairy Law" is a super magic, and the enormous magical power required to activate it is a huge drain even for Hope, who has activated her second magic source.
Moreover, the activation condition of "Fairy Law" is not only magic power, but this magic also consumes the caster's life force. The more targets are hit, the more life force is consumed.
From a biological perspective, vitality refers to an organism's ability to sustain life and is the foundation for the existence and development of living organisms.
Once you expend extra life force, it's very difficult to replenish it.
Fortunately, as a "magnetic field expert," Hope only needs to cultivate to 10 horsepower to replenish his depleted life force by absorbing the life force of plants.
At this moment, the surrounding darkness had vanished, and sunlight shone down again. Before Hope was a body, its clothes and all, a deathly pale color.
However, this body was now completely empty.
Joseph died.
This former member of the Ten Wizard Saints and the guild master of Phantom Lord, along with his ambition and resentment, ultimately lost all life under the super magic passed down from Fairy Tail.
The remaining enemies were not Hope's target. The few dark mages who were still putting up a last-ditch effort lost their will to fight after seeing Joseph's death, and trembled as they crouched down with their heads in their hands.
"That's... over?"
Lucy looked in disbelief at the battlefield, now a scene of utter chaos but also a return to calm.
Mystergan silently withdrew his wand and walked to the unconscious Midnight and the immobile Brian, casting a binding spell on them.
Natsu excitedly high-fived Happy, "Haha! Happy, did you see that?! We defeated the 'Ten Wizard Kings'! We were amazing!"
"Ai yi~"
Gray walked over, his tone laced with sourness, "Hope and Erza were the ones who did the main work, so what are you so smug about?"
"What did you say?! Drooping eyes!"
"Want a fight? You slanted-eyed jerk!"
Seeing that the two were about to start arguing again, Lucy sighed and rubbed her forehead in exasperation.
Wendy, accompanied by Charlotte, trotted over. She had already healed Eric, but the large purple snake had frightened the little girl, so she stayed with Lucy.
Not far away, Richard stood holding Eric, who was still unconscious, looking at the Fairy Tail members, especially Hope, with a complicated expression.
He opened his mouth, but ultimately lowered his head and said nothing.
Erza sheathed her sword, walked to Hope's side, her gaze sweeping over Joseph's corpse, a hint of emotion in her eyes, "This is the end he deserved."
Hope took a deep breath and nodded to Erza.
"Joseph has resolved it, but the scope of 'Fairy Law' is a bit too broad, and it has also affected another 'enemy'."
"You mean... Gerald?"
Erza was taken aback, finally understanding why Hope's "Fairy Law" had to cover the entire Sea of Trees when she was only targeting Joseph.
It turns out that this was to simultaneously attack Gerald, who had fought Jura and the previous night.
Hope truthfully told Erza the information she had heard from Brian about Gerald.
Upon hearing that Jellal was dead, but that his body was being controlled by the "Gates of Tartaros" with unknown magic, Erza pursed her lips and tightened her grip on her sword.
They were used in life and became tools for others after death.
Gerald...
Anger, along with a touch of indescribable sorrow, mingled in Erza's heart.
Hope sighed. "Having been hit by 'Fairy Law,' Jellal is no match for Jura. He and Ichiya will probably come with Jellal's body."
"Let's burn him and Joseph's bodies together then, so that no one else can use him..."
Erza did not answer, but she tacitly agreed with Hope's statement.
Just then, a whooshing sound came from the air.
Two figures descended swiftly on a giant rock serpent. It was Jura and Ichiya. The rock serpent created by Jura was carrying the Christina, which had been damaged by the 'Celestial' magic.
"Everyone! Are you all alright?"
Jura released the rock serpent and immediately saw the horrific scene on the battlefield and the subdued members of the Oración Seis. He was shocked, but even more eager to confirm the situation.
"Ah! This lingering holy fragrance! It truly is 'The Law of the Fairies'!"
He took an exaggerated sniff of the air overnight. Given the close relationship between the Blue Pegasus and Fairy Tail guilds, he naturally knew about "Fairy Law".
"Who unleashed this super magic? They're incredibly powerful."
Hope glanced quickly at Jura and One Night. "I did it. Joseph used the super magic 'Netherworld Hell,' so I had no choice but to retaliate with our guild's super magic."
