A magic merchant infiltrating Fairy Tail

An invisible wave rippled outwards. Kira knew it was no ordinary opponent, but he couldn't sense any magical fluctuations and could only rely on other magic to judge his opponent's attack.

"Water and air!"

Water is almost the best synonym for something that has form but no appearance.

Kira usually uses ice magic more often when it comes to water-related magic because it has higher attack power and greater stability, but that doesn't mean he's weak in this area.

On the contrary, when used through Word of Power magic, its power is in no way inferior to that of any water mage, and even Juvia is far behind.

Kira gave a soft shout, and the water molecules in the air immediately condensed into droplets the size of a finger, hanging in the air. The two fighters were instantly placed in an underwater world, yet they felt no restriction on their breathing.

"Is this the true form of the move I saw in the illusion?"

The water droplets, light and airy, either moved or disappeared after being disturbed by the invisible magic, creating ripples in the moist and transparent space, revealing the shape, size, direction, and speed of the magic. Even the other three people outside the arena could see it clearly.

Kira is stronger than the other two; he doesn't just see with his eyes, he senses with magic!

Every drop of water in the air contained his magic. This vast water battlefield was all under his perception. In the current battle, Kira felt as if he were looking at a chessboard he had set up. He could react immediately to the slightest vibration of a water molecule.

Tap! Tap!

Kira stared directly at the surrounding water vapor, sensing the changes in magical energy in his mind. He moved left and right with his feet, his body like a dragon swimming in water, and in a few moments he flashed past the ripples of the Hidden Dragon.

When I turned around again, Doken was nowhere to be seen!

"Oh? You want to try this trick with me?"

First a feint, then hide, and finally ambush. Kira just used this trick to make Docken suffer a great loss, and now he obviously wants to use the same trick to retaliate against Kira.

but……

"Too late!"

Kira grinned wickedly, "While you were trapped in the illusion, I took the opportunity to tamper with you!"

【"What did you say?!"】

Where no one could see him, Dorken looked surprised, because he didn't feel anything unusual about himself. Just as he was stunned, a magic that didn't belong to him suddenly erupted.

"From that moment on, your 'invisibility magic' has been ineffective against me!"

Kira spoke calmly, simultaneously channeling his magic to detonate the hidden trap he had set beforehand.

Not far away, sensing the magic from the same source, a string of strange magical runes suddenly appeared behind Dorken, emitting a faint white light!

[What is this? Are you trying to use magic to pinpoint my location?]

Dorken was shocked by the change behind him, but quickly regained his composure. 'How naive! Red-haired brat! In this state, everything attached to me, including magic, will be completely hidden. Even if you detonate any pre-placed magic, you won't be able to sense it at all!'

However, the expected magical outburst did not occur, leaving Soken stunned once again!

Looking around and finding no magical fluctuations, Kira spoke again: "It seems your trick can also hide any magic it comes into contact with! Fortunately, what I left on you just now wasn't an attack spell or a locator spell, but a summoning spell!"

"Summoning magic?"

Only where Doken sensed it did a subtle ripple appear in the spatial response magic. A dimensional portal opened, instantly connecting to a hidden location Kira had prepared beforehand, and the items placed within rapidly flowed out!

The spatial passage was like a breached dam, from which countless dark energy particles poured out, spreading to almost half of the room in just a few breaths.

In the microscopic world invisible to the naked eye, these black energy particles rapidly react with the free magical particles in the surrounding air, disintegrating their composition and eliminating their existence!

Even the "Hidden Dragon Slayer Magic," capable of annihilating all matter, has an enemy it absolutely cannot defeat! As the natural enemy of magic, no magic is effective against them!

The magic was disrupted, and Dorken had already revealed his true form. At this moment, he stared wide-eyed in disbelief at the black energy surrounding him and exclaimed, "Could this be... magic barrier particles?!"

Not far away, Kira chuckled and said, "Don't talk, or you'll get sucked in!"

However, caught off guard, Doken had already inhaled quite a bit, and at that moment, a sharp pain shot through his body!

Boom!

The pain in his internal organs caused Doken to collapse to his knees, his strength failing him. He struggled to lift his head, his eyes blazing with fury as he glared at Kira: "You bastard, you actually used something so dangerous?!"

For any mage, the magic barrier particles are a poison that is almost impossible to cure, and this toxicity far exceeds that of Eric's Dragon Slayer Magic!

Under normal circumstances, once a mage inhales magical barrier particles, there is no way to expel them from their body! These magical barrier particles will stay in the mage's body for life, damaging their body. Moreover, the stronger the mage, the more severe the pain they feel and the faster their life force will deplete!

This phenomenon is very similar to magic deficiency, but it is more painful and lasts longer!

Chapter 272 Ten Minutes

The spatial magic was only activated for a few seconds, and the amount of magic particles that overflowed was not much, just enough for one person. After Doken absorbed some, the surrounding magic particles briefly disappeared, but were quickly restored by magic flowing in from other places.

Kira knew that this brief opportunity would be fleeting, so he immediately focused his mind and began to chant!

"The pupils of the north, the heart of the south, the fingertips of the east, the toes of the west, the hair at the top, and the tail at the bottom, gather with the wind and disperse with the clouds, the six directions are fixed!"

Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!

With six soft sounds, six enormous magic circles of cyan, white, red, black, blue, and yellow appeared out of thin air. The magic circles were inscribed with complex and mysterious Rosen runes, which were distributed around Dorken, in front of, behind, to the left and right, as well as above his head and below his feet, firmly locking his figure in place.

Having roamed Giltina for many years, Dorken had never seen this type of magic before, and was utterly astonished.

He endured the pain from the demonic particles within his body and tried to move, but found that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't budge even a finger. The shock on his face grew even more pronounced: "I can't move?! Is it a binding spell?"

However, Kira's actions did not stop!

"It's not over yet! Drink—!"

With a loud shout, his entire body's magic transformed into a pure white color, surging and surging like a waterfall flowing backward, rushing straight to the ceiling!

The ceiling also cooperated, opening directly to reveal the gloomy, dark sky outside!

The sky was both eerie and familiar at this moment. Countless ominous clouds gathered, forming a huge vortex directly above the mechanical castle. At its center, a holy white point of light shone with divine might.

Seeing this, alarm bells rang in Doken's mind, but he was powerless to stop what was about to happen, and his face was filled with horror: "What kind of magic is this?"

Not far away, Gerald trembled, painful memories resurfacing in his mind: "This feeling... could it be?!"

Beside him, Ultear and Eric were already stunned, staring intently at the man before them and the magic he was using, their four eyes frighteningly bright.

Upon hearing Gerald's voice, they understood.

"Is this the move that sent you flying into the sea?"

"The loss was not unjust!"

Gerald: "..."

Kira placed his hands horizontally in front of him, palms facing inward, and then placed them together, exhaling magic into his palms, transforming it into a surge of holy light that finally condensed into a white sphere of light.

The ball of light echoed the white dot in the sky, and the vast magic power quickly passed through the ceiling, flew out of the valley, pierced the clouds, and pulled it down!

"The Fairy's Judgment!!!"

The Fairy's Ultimate Technique has reappeared in the mortal world!

Gerald suddenly realized something: "Oh no! This magic could blow up this entire castle!!"

"What did you say?!"

Ultear and Eric realized what this was all about; it was the same move that had sent Geralt flying into the sea two months ago! He had almost died because of it!

"Quickly, find somewhere to hide!"

However, the three looked around and found the room completely empty, with nothing to use as cover.

Just then, Gerald recalled a scene from his battle with Kira and immediately said, "Go behind Kira! It's safe there!"

The other two snapped out of their daze and immediately ran towards Kira's back, but... it was too late!

Like a thunderclap piercing through the clouds of calamity, like a divine intervention piercing through the darkness!

The divine power of judgment responded to Kira's call and descended from the heavens, breaking through layers of clouds and splitting through mountains. It also ignored the magical interference magnetic field set up by Silver and fell into the silver-white mechanical castle. With precise positioning, it landed directly on Docken!

Suddenly, a brilliant light shone before their eyes! The holy white light filled the entire room, overflowing from the castle and illuminating most of the valley, as well as the sky above!

Bang-!

After a long while, the magic in the room subsided slightly.

"Something seems... off?"

Gerald was still processing what was happening, only thinking to himself: "When he attacked me before, he made such a big fuss, why is he making such a small fuss now? Is Kira targeting me?"

The expected outbreak did not occur; instead, everything was calm, with only scattered smoke and dust, indicating that what had just happened was not a hallucination.

"What happened? Did the magic fail?"

"No! It's not that the magic failed! It's that Kira compressed it!"

The three looked up and saw that Dorken was not far in front of them. He was petrified, his whole body turned into a pure white sculpture from head to toe.

He had lost consciousness, but his body remained standing still, with only his face still showing the astonishment and horror he had shown earlier.

Gerald frowned and asked Kira, "This doesn't seem to be the magic you used when you fought me before, does it?"

"This is an improved version!"

Kira didn't even turn his head. "Both are modified from 'Fairy Law,' but the one we used before was 'Fairy Judgment 1.0,' which used energy attacks and removed the 'enemy identification' function. Overall, it was a half-finished product."

"This time I used 'Fairy Judgment 2.0,' which is closer to the original magic! The attack method is mental intimidation, and it also has the function of 'judging the enemy.' Although the power is a bit lower, it successfully removed the cost of 'the user paying with their lifespan,' making it more perfect!"

After his battle with Jellal, Kira discovered the shortcomings of this newly developed magic. After two months of intensive research, he finally succeeded in improving 'Judgment' once again and fully mastered its use!

While both attack those perceived as enemies by the user, Kira's "Fairy Judgment 2.0" carries no risk of being "rejected by one's own true feelings." Anyone can become a target if he so desires!

Kira strode forward and carefully examined Doken, who had just endured a full combo. He rarely had a chance to use his magic, and he wanted to see just how powerful it truly was.

Instead of being "killed in one hit," he was just at the level of "severely injured and completely unable to fight, but could survive with timely treatment," which was exactly the result Kira wanted!

"What a pity, old man! Exactly ten minutes!" Kira took two steps back, looking regretful, but with a hint of smugness in his eyes. "As agreed, I'll take the Dragon Slayer Heart you brought!"

After saying that, he started groping around on Dorken's body, but naturally found nothing.

The dragon's heart is huge, and such a conspicuous thing couldn't possibly be carried on its body. The three of them didn't have any boxes or anything like that on them either. The only explanation is that it was placed in another dimension by him.

Thinking back to the battle just now, where Silver and he took turns tampering with his alternate dimension, Kira clicked his tongue in amazement: "I wonder if that heart is intact..."

Ultear stepped forward and said, "Shouldn't you be thinking about whether you can even get your hands on him? He's already passed out. How are you going to open his personal alternate dimension?"

"How could something like this be difficult for me?" Kira said proudly. "Fine! While this old man is still warm, I'll make the most of the time and show you all what he's made of!"

"what?"
