Upon seeing one of his benefactors arrive, Angko's face lit up with joy, but his eyes dimmed as he thought of the black-robed man's identity and strength.
"Run! We can't handle him!"
"Escape? At this time? You must be joking."
With a kick, the man in black robes sent Angko flying. He snorted coldly and looked at Noah expressionlessly. The heavily injured Angko was too weak to do anything, but he absolutely could not let the white-haired boy who saw his face get away.
"Since you've come here to die, then you'll all die together."
As soon as he finished speaking, the black-robed man's figure flashed, and his speed suddenly increased. He rushed towards the white-haired boy like a shooting star. Ordinary mages simply could not keep up with such speed.
But Noah is no ordinary mage.
Intense winds of punches blew continuously. Noah seemed to see through the black-robed man's movements, each punch precisely hitting the opponent's attack trajectory, and each punch triggered an explosion of different attributes.
The man in black robes moved with great agility. Although his attack was interrupted, he easily dodged the blast radius. There were other guests in the hotel, and he was certain that the white-haired boy would not dare to use his full strength.
Noah didn't dare to use explosives freely, as that would destroy the hotel, but he also knew that the man in black robes wouldn't dare to go all out either.
This city is called Magnolia, and Fairy Tail is not far from the inn. Makarov and the guild's S-class mages are not to be underestimated.
Realizing that Noah intended to finish him off in close combat inside the room, the man in black not only maintained his speed but also took the initiative to close in. In just one second, he launched an attack from three directions.
To Angke, who was lying on the ground, it was as if the man in black robes had suddenly created two clones, attacking Noah from different angles.
How could that boy possibly withstand such an attack?
To everyone's surprise, Noah remained calm and unleashed a three-pronged attack—fist, palm, and sword-finger—skillfully deflecting the attack. In the final move, he transformed his fingers into a palm and grabbed the black-robed man's arm.
Taking advantage of the opening, Noah pressed forward, and the man in black robes immediately felt heavy blows to his chest, abdomen, waist, and back, especially his lower back.
The sound of wind, thunder, surging water, burning fire, and collapsing earth... five small explosions erupted on his body.
Looking at the smoke in the room, Noah dared not be careless. The other party was suspected to be Zek Rein, so it was best to be cautious.
Sure enough, the next moment, six beams of starlight flashed and instantly dispelled the smoke and dust; each beam was an extremely powerful magical attack.
"Ha, you finally couldn't hide it anymore."
With a loud laugh, Noah shattered a beam of starlight with a punch, recognizing that the opponent was using the 'Celestial' magic, which combined offense, defense, and speed.
The characteristic of this magic is that its moves are as dazzling as starlight, and it has a powerful force to match.
Seeing that the man in black robes was using his true abilities, Noah decided not to continue playing with him.
Previously, Cheese was asked to go back to the guild to recruit more people. The companions who received the notification from Kitten at this time should have cleared out everyone else in the inn.
No longer holding back, the five magical elements of wind, thunder, water, fire, and earth gathered on the explosive glove, triggering a violent explosion as Noah swung his fist.
boom!
The hotel room suddenly exploded, and two figures broke free from it almost simultaneously.
Noah carried the Encore and landed gracefully.
Before the man in black could even steady himself, he noticed the air to his right was rapidly becoming hot.
When it comes to fighting, Natsu is always the first to charge in. When Cheese told him that Noah needed the guild members' help to corner someone, Natsu came without hesitation.
The moment Natsu saw the man in black, his intuition told him that he was an enemy.
"Fire Dragon's Iron Fist!"
Faced with the fierce attack, the man in black robes didn't bother to pursue Noah and Onco. Celestial Magic: Six Stars flashed again, and with one move, he shattered the ferocious fire dragon fist. Natsu was also blasted away by the powerful magic burst.
Unexpectedly, a chill came from the left side of the man in black robes, and by the time he realized it, his feet were frozen in ice.
Just before Natsu launched his attack, Gray, who was close behind, was already prepared with a combo.
Gray immediately slammed both palms down on the icy ground.
"Ice Design: Icy Fountain!"
A magic circle appeared beneath the black-robed man's feet, and a large number of ice spikes gushed out from the ground like a spring, attempting to pierce through him.
But the man in black robes could send Natsu flying with a single blow, so he didn't take the surprise attack seriously at all when facing Gray, who was on par with Natsu in strength.
The same six stars pierced through the ice one after another. Before Gray could even see clearly, the black-robed man's shoe sole was already imprinted on his face, and he was kicked away in the same way as Natsu.
In an instant, Natsu and Gray were carried away one after the other, something only an S-rank mage in the guild could do.
Noah is increasingly convinced that the high-profile Zek Rein who visited Makarov earlier was a fake, and that this man in the black robe is the real Zek Rein.
But is this really possible?
Is it really necessary for a designated Ten Wizard Saint, the youngest member of the Magic Council, to personally commit murder to silence witnesses?
With Natsu and Gray, the two "troublemakers," being knocked away, the man in black robes was not happy, because compared to what was about to happen, the two of them were just appetizers.
"Who goes there! Daring to cause trouble in Magnolia!"
"Don't you know this territory is under the protection of Fairy Tail?"
"Hey, we're a legitimate guild, what's with you talking like a gangster?"
"All in black, he looks like a bad guy!"
"Don't include Mistgang in the insults..."
"man!"
"..."
The Fairy Tail members surrounded the inn, each one glaring menacingly at the man in black, which made him feel uneasy.
"Alright, let's continue."
Noah clapped his hands, a mischievous grin on his face, and said, "Are you going to take on all of us one-on-one, or are we going to gang up on you?"
"Hurry up and choose, I'm waiting to go home and feed my hamster."
You bastard! You despicable scoundrel!
Aren't they all the same?
The man in black cursed inwardly. He understood perfectly well that the fight in the inn earlier was purely the work of that despicable white-haired man, who was trying to get others to hold him back.
In the eyes of the man in black robes, the mages surrounding him were not very strong, and most of them were not even as strong as the ice and fire man who had just been knocked away.
However, having used that magic before, the man in black knew that he was not at his peak, and that the possibility of ants killing an elephant could not be ruled out for him.
Moreover, Fairy Tail also has powerful members. The black-robed man shifted his gaze, locking onto the two girls with white and red hair.
Mira has received the Soul of Satan, enabling her to fight against powerful individuals outside the guild. This has reignited her fighting spirit, and she eagerly looks at her companions.
"Erza, you're good at tactics, why don't you take charge of everyone?"
The female knight, leaning on her sword, did not respond to Mira, but instead looked at the man in black robes with a complex expression.
Although both were dressed in black robes, the man in the black robes did not completely cover his face like Mystogan did. In addition, the battle with Noah had caused his black robes to be damaged in many ways, and many people present had already seen his face.
Looking at that familiar face, Erza was filled with a myriad of thoughts, which ultimately boiled down to a single sentence.
"Geralt, it's been a long time..."
Compared to the red-haired girl's complex emotions, the man in the black robe was much more decisive. He took off his black robe, which had been shattered by the explosion, revealing a face that was exactly the same as Zeke Rein's.
The male mage named Geralt spoke in a relaxed tone.
"Long time no see, Erza."
So they knew each other...? These two brief exchanges instantly sparked countless outrageous and melodramatic scenarios in the minds of everyone around them.
Unfortunately, the sequel that everyone was hoping for did not happen. Erza and Jellal only exchanged a "long time no see" before having no further interaction.
The residents around the inn had already been evacuated under the organization of the city guards, and now only mages remained here.
The demon has appeared, the queen has drawn her sword, and the thunder dragon lurks in the shadows, full of interest...
The fairies were itching to fight.
A major battle (or perhaps a brawl?) is about to begin
