Chapter 296: Gandora Makes a Powerful Appearance as He Destroys the Entire Forest
The clash of ultimate magic created a shockwave-filled area, with the constantly exploding magic seemingly tearing the sky apart and shattering the earth!
Gusts of storm overflowed from within the impact zone, violently ravaging everything around it.
This is a terrifying confrontation that only occurs between the top ten Wizard Saints!
"Hey, is this for real? I can feel that terrifying magic even from this far away?"
"Is this Chase at full power? Damn it, when did this guy become this strong?!"
"To be able to fight this monster to this extent, you truly deserve to be our guild's second-generation leader!"
"What are you so proud of?!"
After retreating to the safe zone, Macao and other guild members stared in disbelief at the battlefield ahead.
Judging from the current situation, Chess and the Card Spirits have firmly suppressed Hades and the Stone Demon, and even have a slight advantage, so they are relatively relaxed.
"Looks like that brat Chase has completely surpassed me—"
A hint of relief appeared on Makarov's old face at the front of the crowd, but it was quickly replaced by a solemn expression.
While it's something to be happy about that Chase has surpassed this old man, the current battle isn't as optimistic as Marcao and the others seem.
No matter how strong Chase is, his magic will eventually run out, but Hades, who has a demon heart, can constantly recover his magic and physical injuries, and always stay at his peak.
If you can't achieve a crushing, instantaneous kill, then a brief period of suppression is completely meaningless.
This was inherently an unequal battle!
And indeed, things turned out exactly as Makarov had feared.
Boom!!
With another magical clash, Chase, whose magic was depleted, could no longer withstand Hades' punch and was sent flying, carving two long trenches in the ground.
Slowly lowering his bloodied and mangled arms that had been crossed in front of him, Chase opened his mouth and gasped for breath, completely ignoring the blood spilling from the corners of his mouth.
At this moment, his hair was disheveled, his muscular body was covered with scars of all sizes, and he was exhausted, clearly having reached the limit of what his body could endure.
The magical energy surged like a taut rope that snapped. The dark mage and the others who were fighting the stone demon were stunned for a moment. After glancing back at Chess, they turned into countless points of light and vanished from the spot.
"To be able to fight this hard against an old man who has activated magic, kid, you have every reason to be proud."
The sound of steel boots treading on gravel grew louder as Hades, having driven away the stone demon, slowly approached.
Believing the outcome was already decided, he put his blindfold back on, his old face showing a calm and collected expression.
"To be honest, you are even more outstanding than I imagined. So outstanding that the thought of burying you here makes me feel a pang of reluctance and heartache."
Hades stopped a few meters in front of Chase.
After a few seconds of pause, he slightly raised his left eye, extended his palm towards Chess, and said with sincere emotion in his voice: "Leave Fairy Tail and come with me to explore the deeper realms of magic. The great magical world needs young people like you."
Putting aside the "heartache" that may or may not be true, the main reason he changed his mind about annihilating Fairy Tail and extended the invitation was because of the Chaos Dark Magician and Dark Mage Apprentice that Chase summoned.
He sensed a rather mysterious form of black magic emanating from them.
If we could have in-depth exchanges and powerful alliances with these unfathomable individuals, we might not even need Zeref; we could glimpse the abyss of magic and usher in a new era of great magic!
Chess's throat tightened, and he spat out the bad blood stuck inside.
Under Hades' unwavering gaze, he slowly spoke, giving a resounding reply: "Go to hell!"
Hades's lips twitched.
He had expected to be rejected, so he didn't have much hope, but he never expected that this damn brat would utter such vulgar words!
Having ruled the heart of demons and roamed the magical world for many years, he had encountered either subordinates filled with worship and awe or enemies kneeling and begging for mercy. He had long forgotten what it felt like to have his family questioned, to the point that he was somewhat taken aback.
Chase had no time to appreciate the amazement on Hades' face; instead, he focused all his attention on the battlefield of the Dark Castle in the distance.
Under the violent demolition by the Fairy Tail crew, Dark Castle has almost been reduced to ruins, with only a few broken walls remaining.
Natsu and the Thunder Crew, whose Kuriboh passive ability hadn't been triggered, were pursuing the Demon Heart Magical Soil, who was putting up a desperate resistance.
The belligerent Natsu actually wanted to come and take on Hades, but Lucy's words, "If you go now, you'll definitely get beaten up by Chess too," scared him so much that he turned and ran away.
Seeing that his companions had almost finished gaining experience and that he had also obtained the new card as he wished, Chase took a deep breath and looked at the enraged Hades, deciding to bring this battle between fairies and demons to a final close.
"Thank you, President Precito. I had a great time, but it's time to end this now," he said with a smile.
"Heh, there's a limit to bluffing, you brat."
For the sake of his image, Hades ultimately refrained from retaliating. Instead, he regained his composure and said with interest, "Given your current state, so fragile and vulnerable, do you really have the right to declare 'the end'?"
Whether you're qualified or not, you'll just have to wait and see.
After saying that, Chase snapped his fingers.
Buzzing.
Nazuna Lucy and the others, who were fighting the Demon Heart Mages, suddenly froze. They were forcibly pulled back by the teleportation array attached to the cards they carried, and appeared next to Makarov.
Ultear, who had turned to collecting magic books after failing to find the heart, was among them.
"What's going on? I'm only one person short, but I've already defeated twice as many enemies as Lucy!" Natsu roared in annoyance.
"I told you not to compare me to anyone!!" Lucy snapped.
"An actively triggered teleportation spell? What is Chase trying to do?"
A gentle breeze ruffled Mira's long, flowing white hair. As she gazed at Chase's retreating figure, who was confronting Hades in the distance, a sudden, ominous feeling washed over her.
Just as everyone was discussing this, Chase's voice resounded throughout the entire venue through the transmission of cards.
"Grandpa! Let's get everyone away from here!!"
Upon hearing this, Makarov, who, like Mira, sensed something was amiss, activated the Nirvana without hesitation.
The six Earth Magic Crystals, which had been poised to unleash their power, shone brightly.
As rubble tumbled down and dust billowed, the large-scale flight array that instantly deployed propelled the Nirvana, carrying all the Fairy Tail crew, into the air.
"So, he was trying to sacrifice himself to buy time and cover his comrades' retreat? What a ridiculous and pointless move!"
Hades shook his head in disappointment, raising his arms to his chest, palms facing each other. "Under my watchful eye, any struggle will be futile."
That's a gesture to unleash the "law of the devil"!
The terrifying energy concentrated at one point and rapidly accumulated, unleashing a deep purple light.
"It's not about stalling for time, it's about avoiding friendly fire!" said the second-generation guild leader.
Boom boom boom boom!!
A massive pillar of light, brimming with destructive energy, shot into the sky, densely covering the entire Death Forest and turning the sky and earth crimson.
"What is this thing that can interrupt my spellcasting?"
Hades was startled. "Wait a minute! How come his magic has returned?!"
Following his astonished gaze, they saw Chase, having used the stamina booster, standing in the howling wind, arms raised high.
Show the card held between your fingers.
"Infuse all your magic, you black-gold dragon, shatter the chains that bind you to the rift of this world, and bring destruction to my enemies!"
"Come forth! Destruction Dragon Gandora!!"
Click.
As the magic array bloomed, the black lock shattered inch by inch amidst the overwhelming destructive flames.
A crimson light shone behind Chase, and the jet-black dragon slowly opened its extremely imposing dragon eyes.
A fierce and chaotic aura instantly filled the entire arena!
"That's a dragon? How is that possible?!"
Hades was completely dumbfounded, his wide pupils reflecting the massive body of the Destroyer Dragon, enveloped in flames.
Even he could not resist the instinctive fear that humans feel when facing a dragon, and his body trembled uncontrollably.
"No, there's nothing to be afraid of. As long as it has a heart, even if it's a real dragon, it's nothing." Hades reassured himself, but the next second, he panicked completely: the dragon's target was the entire forest, including the one where the heart was hidden underground!
Roar! !
The dragon's roar exploded like thunder. With the full power of Chess's magic, Gandora raised its head and roared furiously.
Countless beams of red light emanating from the body drew in and released the destructive energy of all the towering beams of light on the scene.
A terrifying explosion instantly engulfed the entire forest!
