My two-dimensional resident

"President, what's wrong?"

Seeing that Guild Master Hades had a serious expression and was looking out the window, Ultear below asked a question.

"Someone's coming!"

"Ok?"

Someone had actually found their airship, and the seven members of the Purgatory Kin present all turned to look out the window.

"Tsk tsk tsk, how dare someone be so bold. They actually dared to attack the heart of our demon. Guild Master, let me go and take care of them."

A young man with a golden lion's head saw Lin Tian and Bardak attacking them through the window, and with a disdainful expression, he laughed arrogantly and menacingly. Then, he vanished from his spot in a flash.

This blond boy is Zancro, one of the Seven Kin of Purgatory from the Devil's Heart guild. He uses lost magic—the god-slaying magic "Flame." He calls himself a God-Slaying Mage.

Leaping out of the airship, Zancro, hovering in the air, arrogantly looked at Lin Tian and his companion, his crimson eyes filled with disdain. It was as if the two before him were already corpses—no, under his God-Slaying Flames, even corpses ceased to exist.

"You two dare to come to our Demon Heart stronghold? Accept my punishment! Roar of the Flame God!"

Zancro roared, then took a deep breath, and a burst of black flames shot out from his mouth, attacking Lin Tian and the other person.

"As expected, it's the heart of the demon from the Dark Guild. No normal person..." Looking at the black flames that were almost within reach, Lin Tian sighed angrily, pointed his finger at the flames with special properties, and shouted, "Ignite!"

---Aside---

I recommend a friend's book, a science fiction book: *I Inadvertently Created a Biological Myth Civilization*.

Chapter 282 The Clash of Fire

In a flash of light, Zankro's fiery roar instantly turned red. It had been "ignited." To be precise, the magic power within Zankro's roar of the fire god was ignited, and the originally black flames burned into the purest flames, breaking free from Zankro's control.

In the world of Fairy Tail, "magical elements" exist in all things and circulate among them. The "magic power" of mages originates from this. They cast "magic" by controlling the "magic power" within their bodies.

Therefore, regardless of the elemental magic a mage uses to cast, such as earth, water, wind, fire, etc., these spells contain a large amount of magical power.

Magic is a form of energy that can be easily ignited by Lin Tian's Flame-Flame Fruit.

However, the magic in the Fairy Tail world isn't simply constructed from magical energy; it also reflects the rules of that world. For example, Zankro's God-Slaying Magic contains a rule that restrains divinity. It is because of this rule that his magic is called Lost Magic—God-Slaying Magic.

After igniting the "Roar of the Flame God," Lin Tian also controlled the flame and immediately sensed a rule he had never encountered before.

Although this rule had no effect on him, it somewhat hindered his control over the flames. So, with a thought, he removed the God-Slaying Rule from the flames. Then, with a flick of his finger, the flame seemed to come alive, coiling above his head like a python.

"What?" Zancro looked incredulously as his "Roar of the Flame God" broke free of his control and transformed into a flame from which he could not sense any magic, which truly shocked him.

This was the first time he had ever seen such a situation since he became a mage.

How did he manage to do that?

But as one of the Seven Kin of Purgatory, the heart of the demon, and a powerful black mage, how could he admit that his opponent was stronger than him? He only believed that the opponent possessed magic he had never seen before. He barely managed to block his "Roar of the Flame God."

"Boy, don't think you can defeat the members of the Demon Heart just because you've learned some lost magic. Arrow of the Flame God!"

Zancro roared, and an arrow conjured from black flames appeared in his hand. He swung it with all his might. This arrow, named "Arrow of the Flame God," hurtled towards Lin Tian at incredible speed.

The First Minister of the Ming Dynasty

"Hmph!" Lin Tian snorted lightly. The fiery python coiled above his head opened its blood-red maw and swallowed the black arrow into its belly. Then it let out a silent roar at Zankro. At this moment, silence spoke louder than words, and it was full of domineering power.

Then, under everyone's watchful eyes, the fiery python rushed quickly in front of him.

Seeing the intruder's attack already upon him, Zancro could have easily dodged it with his strength. However, as a high-ranking officer of the most powerful dark guild, his pride wouldn't allow him to dodge the attack.

"The Flame Greatsword!"

Zancro gripped his hands tightly, and a black flame greatsword, 1.5 meters long, appeared in his hands. His expression was filled with intense anger. He roared and slashed at the flame python.

"Ignorance and arrogance will be your epitaph."

Seeing that Zancro was advancing instead of retreating, Lin Tian decided to stop fighting him. His goal was to obtain information about the Tower of Paradise, not to play games with these dark mages.

He quickly took out an apple and a cherry and put them in his mouth to replenish the energy he had consumed in eliminating the God-Slaying Rule, and to amplify the strength of his next attack.

boom!

The fiery python clashed with the black flame greatsword, scattering in all directions. Seeing this, Zancro was overjoyed. The seemingly powerful fiery python was nothing but a paper tiger.

But before he could even feel happy for half a second, the scattered flames surrounded him from all directions. In an instant, they transformed into a huge fireball, trapping him inside.

"ignite!"

As soon as Lin Tian gave the order, Zankro, inside the fireball, found that the magic on his skin used to resist the high temperature of the flames began to burn.

"Ah~"

Without the protection of magic, Zankro was instantly killed by the scorching flames, leaving only a lifeless shell. Three seconds later, the fireball transformed back into a fiery python and returned to Lin Tian, ​​disappearing into his body through his fingers. At this moment, Lin Tian also held a small black ball in his hand.

This small ball is the crystallization of the lost magic that Zancro had learned throughout his life—the power of the rules of the God-Slaying Magic.

Although Lin Tian cannot currently ignite the rules that transcend energy, it does not prevent him from collecting and condensing the power of these rules together.

Looking at the crystal in his hand, Lin Tian remained calm. He put the crystal into his spatial backpack, waved to Bardock, and the two continued towards the Devil's Heart airship.

"What?! Zancro is dead?!"

Inside the airship, the Seven Kin of Purgatory were shocked to see their comrade instantly killed. They rushed out of the airship and surrounded Lin Tian and Bardock. Each of them lit up a magic circle in their hand; if Lin Tian and Bardock dared to take a step forward, they would surely be killed.

"Urudia! Tell me, where are the ruins of the recently destroyed Tower of Paradise?"

Lin Tian swept his cold gaze over the six people, finally focusing his attention on the only woman.

Ultear Milkovich is a mage of the dark guild "Grimoire Heart," one of the Balam League's factions in the Fairy Tail world, and the leader of the Seven Kin of Purgatory. She once disguised herself as Zeref's ghost at the Tower of Heaven to brainwash Jellal, and later infiltrated the Magic Council with Jellal. After the battle on Tenrou Island, she reformed and founded the independent guild Sin of Witches with Melty and Jellal.

At this moment, Lin Tian was only thinking about the safety of Kikyo and the other two, and he didn't have much time to be kind to Ultear just because she would be redeemed in the future.

"You killed one of our comrades, do you think we'll let you get away with it?"

Ultear was startled, unable to understand why the intruder knew her name. She had no recollection of this man. How did he know her? And why was he asking about the Tower of Paradise?

“I only want to know the location of that Tower of Paradise, not to start a war with you. Your companion’s death was his own doing. Precht, if you don’t want to lose a few more men, come out here.”

Lin Tian's Observation Haki sensed that there was another being with immense magical power inside the airship. He quickly guessed that this must be Hades, the guild master of Devil Heart, who was also one of the founders of Fairy Tail and its second guild master, Precht Gellberg.

Since Ultear couldn't make the decision, he could only ask Hades to come out and tell him the location of the Tower of Paradise.

Chapter 283 Asking for Directions? Or Has an Enemy Came to the Door?

At this moment, Lin Tian was also somewhat uneasy. The process of killing Zancro seemed to be one-sided and overwhelming. But he knew very well that killing Zancro had consumed 80% of his strength.

If he were to fight the other six members of the Seven Kin of Purgatory right now, even with the powerful Bardock by his side, Lin Tian wouldn't be confident of escaping unscathed from these mages whose strength was comparable to his own and who could even use lost magic.

'The vice president isn't here... That's good news for me, since gravity magic and stuff like that are such a limitation for Bardock.'

The main reason he was able to kill Zancro was because he was too arrogant and underestimated Lin Tian. In addition, the magic he used was fire magic, while Lin Tian had an affinity for fire, which was a natural counter to him.

Unlike the other members of the Seven Kin of Purgatory, they each possess different lost magic. For example, Ultia can use "Arc of Time," which can return the state of things to the past or push them into the future, but it is ineffective on creatures other than plants.

Lastiros, the white-haired, bespectacled man and also one of the Seven Kin of Purgatory, possesses the lost magic "Arc of Manifestation." He can bring anything he imagines to life. Zul'dir possesses the lost magic "Human Subordination," which can weaken human strength and magical power, and can also summon humans as his puppets by summoning celestial spirits.

Each of the Seven Kin of Purgatory possesses unique lost magic. If they attack Lin Tian and his companion together, they will be caught off guard and in a difficult situation in a short period of time.

"who are you?"

Upon hearing that the intruder Lin Tian actually knew the real name that he had abandoned for many years, Hades, the leader of the Demon Heart Guild, finally stepped out of the airship and flew in front of his remaining six subordinates, looking at Lin Tian with a gloomy expression.

"Lin Tian, ​​an island lord. I came here not specifically to cause trouble for you, but because your airship happens to be right in front of me. Tell me the location of the Paradise Tower that was destroyed some time ago. I'll leave immediately."

'What amazing magic power! If measured by the island's attribute values, it should be over 400.'

Looking at the old man in black armor before him, Lin Tian's heart tightened. He took out an apple and began to eat it. Swallowing an apple whole is only done in an emergency. Under normal circumstances, no one would willingly swallow a fist-sized apple in one bite.

"Hmm? You think you can leave here after killing my subordinate?"

"Precht, no." Hades snorted coldly. He could sense that Lin Tian's magic power was similar to that of Zudir and the others, and he could easily kill him. However, Hades was somewhat wary of the magic used to kill Zankro. He was very interested in Lin Tian's abilities, what kind of magic he possessed, and why he couldn't sense any magic circles or overflowing magic power when Lin Tian released his spells.

And what about his companion? He has no magic power at all, yet he can float in mid-air. His suffocating aura makes even the most powerful guild leader of the dark guild seem insignificant in comparison.

That's not the kind of murderous aura you get from killing hundreds or thousands of people!

"Whether I can leave here or not is not up to you, but to me. The Arc of Time, the Arc of the Great Tree, the Arc of Manifestation, Subordination of Humanity, the Descent of the Hour of the Ox, the Emotion of Sin... these lost magics can indeed cause me some trouble. But that doesn't mean I'm afraid."

Hades, you are indeed very strong. But don't you consider the lives of your subordinates? They are the ones you've painstakingly trained. I just want to know how to get to the Tower of Paradise. As long as you and Ultia tell me its location, I'll leave this place.

Although Lin Tian was anxious and angry because of his worry for Kikyo and the others, he had to suppress these emotions and remain rational. Hades and his subordinates were powerful, but Lin Tian and Bardock were not without a fighting chance.

However, Lin Tian was very wary. If he fought Hades, would the evil thoughts he released summon the Black Dragon, one of the world's bosses?

Acnologia, the Black Dragon, is the final boss of the Fairy Tail anime. He is incredibly powerful and has a cold and cruel personality. The most troublesome thing about him is that he cannot communicate with him. He was a Dragon Slayer Mage from over four hundred years ago, the first human mage to fully transform into a dragon, and is known as the Dragon King, the Black Feather of the End, and the Source of Evil.

A powerful, inhuman beast. Lin Tian didn't want to encounter it in this emergency.

"Kid, tell me. Why are you looking for the Tower of Paradise?"

From Lin Tian's expression, Hades didn't realize that the other man was lying; he truly was focused on finding the Tower of Paradise. A mysterious powerhouse, whose strength was no less than his subordinates', was actually searching for the Tower of Paradise, and he even knew exactly what magic his subordinates were using.

Hades dared not let them leave, but before killing the two, he needed to extract information from them—which faction they belonged to, and why they knew so much about them.

"Find someone!"

"Looking for someone? Go look in hell! Dark Chains!"

Looking for someone? The Tower of Paradise is full of their slaves, and all of them were rescued by Fairy Tail members a few days ago. If you really want to find someone, you should go to Fairy Tail, not to their Devil's Heart.

So when Lin Tian said he was looking for someone, Hades interpreted it as clearly seeking revenge. He immediately snorted coldly, and a magical chain shot towards Lin Tian.

Seeing that their guild master had already made his move, the other members of the Seven Kin of Purgatory secretly thought that the two intruders were doomed. They all sneered, waiting for Lin Tian and his companion to die under Guild Master Hades' magic.

"Eight Gates Formation, Open Gate! Rest Gate! Life Gate! Wound Gate!"

Seeing that Hades, that old geezer, had actually launched a sneak attack, Lin Tian quickly released a net of fire to block the attack. At the same time, he took out four cherries; each time he ate one, he released one of the restrictions in the Eight Gates Formation, instantly increasing his strength several times over.

With the boost from the cherry blossoms and the Eight Gates, even though he only opened four gates, his current strength is already greater than if he had opened six gates.

In an instant, a powerful and suffocating aura erupted from Lin Tian's body. The powerful invisible force dispersed the dark clouds in the sky, and a ray of sunlight shone through the gap and fell on Lin Tian's body, radiating golden light, like an unparalleled demon god.

"Oh no! Everyone, attack together!"

Seeing Lin Tian use an unknown magic to suddenly increase his magical power, Ultear sensed something was wrong and quickly shouted, leading the other members of the Seven Kin of Purgatory to charge towards Lin Tian.

"Bardock!"

"Leave it to me!"

In his first battle against a powerful being from another world, Bardock, a Saiyan, was bursting with fighting spirit. He let out a hearty laugh, revealed a ferocious expression, and charged towards the group.
