Chapter 434

"What's this …"

Gajiro's Iron Dragon Rod hit the golden magic barrier. It felt like he had hit an iron pillar; it was so strong that his body suffered a violent backlash.

A look of surprise appeared on his face. He clenched his fists, mobilized his magic, and punched the golden barrier.

"Iron Dragon's Iron Fist!"

Boom!

When the fist struck the golden barrier, it was like steel striking a huge bronze bell. A deafening buzzing sound spread out in all directions.

Inside the barrier, Lily subconsciously raised her hands to cover her ears. But then, she was surprised to find that not only did she not suffer any damage inside the barrier, but even a part of the sound transmitted by the strong tremor was also isolated.

"Such magic, how is it possible that even my fist can't break the barrier …"

Jaajiru looked a little shocked as he looked at the pale golden barrier.

And at the next moment …

Ripples flowed on the golden barrier. The ripples converged forward and turned into a huge palm. Then, the palm bent its fingers and flicked them towards Gaajiru.

It seemed calm, but Gajiro, who was facing this finger head-on, felt great terror and threat. His pupils contracted violently, and he roared, folded his arms in front of him, and burst out his magic, trying his best to resist the incoming finger.

But even so, when the finger fell, his whole body trembled, and the steel shell of the Dragon of Iron Slayer that appeared on the surface of his body cracked and shattered in an instant. At the same time, he didn't even have the time to scream. Like a bullet, he flew far into the sky and disappeared.

After the finger made of golden magical power flicked Gajiro away, it gradually dimmed and eventually disappeared completely, leaving Rebi standing alone in the same place.

Silence.

Feng Ye walked out of the shadows and came behind Lily. He looked in the direction where Gajiro flew away and said, "Sure enough, he still used some dirty tricks."

“！”

The sudden voice behind her made Rebbi shiver, but she quickly recognized the person behind her from the familiar voice.

Her breathing quickened for a moment, and then she turned around and looked at the calm and handsome face that was looking down at her. "Thank, thank you … Maple, are you here or …"

"Neither."

Feng Ye smiled and said, "My residence has a special magic array. Anyone who enters or leaves my residence will have my mana on them. The more they enter or leave my residence, the more mana they'll be contaminated with. This mana can become a protective force at a critical moment."

"I just sensed that the magic in your body was stimulated, so I came over."

Not all girls knew that they were protected by Maple's magic power. The only ones who knew about it were Elutha, Mira, and Lisana. Rebbi and Lucy didn't know about it.

Mira and Elutha deliberately didn't tell Lucy and Rebbi about it because they didn't want the two to let their guard down during the mission.

After all.

If they knew in advance that Maple had left a protective magic power in everyone and could protect them at critical moments, they wouldn't be very vigilant during some more dangerous missions. In that case, the training wouldn't be as effective.

Rebbi's personality was too gentle, second only to Wendy. In Mira and Elutha's opinion, she naturally needed to gain experience, so they tacitly didn't tell her about it.

"So that's how it is …"

A look of realization appeared on Laybi's face, and there was a hint of light in her eyes as she looked at Feng Ye, and a faint blush appeared on her cheeks.

In other words, Maple did care about her and her safety. At the thought of this, she couldn't help but feel a little overwhelmed.

After she looked up at Maple, she, who had always been a little timid, suddenly seemed to be aroused by some inexplicable emotion. She stepped forward and hugged Maple tightly with open arms.

This lasted for a short period of three seconds.

She gradually recovered from her surging emotions, and a trace of panic flashed in her eyes. She let go of him at a loss and took a step back. Her cheeks were red as she said, "I-I'm sorry, I suddenly felt a little …"

Seeing the girl in front of him suddenly become bold and then suddenly timid and flustered, Maple couldn't help but chuckle. He put his hand on her little head and smiled at her.

"You're really cute."

This sentence caused Reibi's entire body to freeze, as if she was immersed in an incomparably joyful mood. If someone else had said this about her, she would only have smiled. However, when Feng Ye said this, she felt a wave of boundless joy.

She was … called cute by Maple.

It wasn't until Maple had already walked far away and called out to her that she came back to her senses. She hurriedly chased after Maple and jogged all the way to his back.

Just as she was hesitating to say something, her gaze suddenly froze, and a look of surprise appeared on her face. Her face also became a bit pale as she looked at a large tree in front of her.

She could see it.

Two people were hanging on the thick trunk of the big tree. It was Jett and Troy!

"Jett? Troy?! "

Rebbi covered her mouth with her hand and couldn't help but exclaim. She looked at the iron nails and iron rings that nailed Jett and Troy to the tree and said, "This … was also done by that Gajiro …"

"Yeah."

Maple nodded slightly, looked at Rebbi, and said, "Go and call the people from the guild."

Rebbi looked at Jett and Troy who were nailed to the tree, and then looked at Maple. She took a deep breath, nodded, and then quickly ran to the back.

…

Somewhere in the Fiore Kingdom.

This was the location of the Will-o-Wisp's Dominator Guild.

At this moment.

On the top floor of the guild building, in a room that looked quite aristocratic, there was a long oval table with several people sitting on each side of the table.

The person sitting by the window picked up the teacup on the table, took a leisurely sip of tea, then looked out of the window and said, "I wonder how Gajiro is doing?"

"He won't have any problems doing things."

Josebora, the leader of the Will-o-Wisp's Dominator Guild, sat opposite him and said with a faint smile, "The Fairy's Tail will definitely be angered and come looking for us."

There were a total of four people sitting in this room, and the other three weren't the Four Elements of Will-o-Wisp. Two of them were the leaders of the other two Magic Shooters Guilds!

Everyone had the same goal, and that was to join forces to attack the Fairy's Tail!

"That's good."

Another leader sneered and said, "When they take the initiative to attack, we can use legitimate reasons to support you and teach them a lesson!"

The current status of the Fairy's Tail in the magic world was the strongest guild standing at the peak of Ishgar. Most of the missions and commissions would be passed to the Fairy's Tail first.

While many other guilds were facing a lack of commissions and were struggling with expenses, the Fairy's Tail had so many commissions that they couldn't finish them. This undoubtedly caused a lot of jealousy.

The most important thing was.

The one who maintained an intimate relationship with the Fairy's Tail, the Phoenix Witch, who was ranked first among the Ten Great Mages of Ishgar, had not appeared for nearly a hundred years!

Although the location of the Phoenix Heart Guild still had a powerful Phoenix Magic seal that no one could pass through, not appearing for a hundred years would gradually cause disloyalty in some people.

Of course.

If that was the case, even if the three guilds joined forces, they wouldn't dare to easily attack the Fairy's Tail, because the Fairy's Tail still had an elder, who was ranked fifth among the Ten Great Mages of Ishgar, Wolodzinken!

Among the Ten Great Mages of Ishgar, the first was the Phoenix Witch, who had not wavered for hundreds of years. She was publicly recognized as the strongest High Mage in Ishgar, and the second to fifth were known as the Four Heavenly Kings of Ishgar!

The magic of these four people far surpassed the other Ten Great Mages of Ishgar.

Although the leader of Wraith, Josepola, was also one of the Ten Great Mages, he knew that his strength was only comparable to Makarov's. He was far inferior to Wolodzinken.

The one who gave the three guilds the courage to provoke the Fairy's Tail, as well as the sinister plan to have a battle with the Fairy's Tail, was the fourth person sitting in the room.

"What do you think?"

Josepola looked at the figure sitting at the head of the long oval table and said respectfully, "Mr. Serena."

Coincidentally, the moonlight shone in through the window and shone on the man's body, clearly revealing the man's figure and face.

It was the second of the Ten Saint Archmages —

God Serena!

"I'm not interested in the Fairy's Tail."

Serena sat there, one hand supporting his cheek. His eyes flickered as he said, "I'm only interested in the power of that High Mage. There are clues to his power in the Fairy's Tail."

As the second of the Ten Great Mages, he had already raised his mana to the limit. There was no room for improvement in all aspects.

He was very clear about his own strength. The so-called Four Heavenly Kings of Ishgar were just a joke. It could be said that from the third to the tenth, even if they all worked together, they wouldn't be a match for him!

The so-called 'Heavenly Kings' of Wolodzincen's level weren't even worth mentioning!

But.

Even with his current strength, he was still far from his mortal enemy, the Black Dragon King Akunolokia!

He feared Akunolokia. He wanted to obtain more power, to be able to fight against Akunolokia.

Without Maple Night interfering with the World Line, his final choice was to abandon his position as one of the Ten Great Mages and seek refuge in the Western Continent's Albares Empire. He became Djerf's subordinate, hoping to rely on Djerf's power to fight against Akunolokia.

But here.

He didn't look towards the Western Continent, but here.

Because there was a power that could fight against the Black Dragon Akunolokia here. That was the great Magic Shooter who had defeated Akunolokia four hundred years ago!

The first leader of the Fairy's Tail was his disciple, and the Phoenix Witch was his follower. Even though that Magic Shooter hadn't appeared for four hundred years, his power still affected this continent, and there were all sorts of rumors about him.

Among them.

The most widespread rumor was that the great Magic Shooter had already passed away, but he left behind his power. It was the legendary seven magic orbs!

Although this was only a legend, Serena was almost certain that it wasn't a legend, but the truth. Because right now … he already had five of the seven magic orbs in his hands!

The remaining two.

He wasn't sure where one of them was, but he was sure of where the other one was. It was in the Fairy's Tail!
