Chapter 224: Which Genius Cast the Seal?
Chapter 224: Which Genius Cast the Seal?
Not far from Mr. Yopa’s residence, Wendi was holding a thick book, reading it intently.
"Suddenly, what are you doing?" Xia Lulu didn’t understand her actions. "They told us to stay at the inn before."
"Sorry, Xia Lulu, but there’s something I need to verify... It’s this!"
Wendi found the content she wanted to read and carefully took notes.
She looked around, found a branch, and started drawing the magic array on a patch of empty ground.
"Isn’t this the Milky Way’s magic array?" Xia Lulu noticed Wendi had drawn it more than once. "Learning the Dragon Slayer’s doctrine at a time like this?"
"Not exactly. I’ve been using the Milky Way as an offensive spell, but I’ve been making a few mistakes, so it’s never worked."
Wendi explained seriously: "The meaning of the Milky Way is to 'listen to the dragon soul’s voice,' it’s a spell that allows communication with the dragon soul."
"Even so, why here... Is there a dragon soul here?"
"Not exactly. Although it’s the spell to listen to the dragon soul, it might also help me sense human souls."
Wendi finished drawing the magic array and wiped the sweat from her forehead, "I think Miss Lisi’s condition might be a soul issue, using the Milky Way, I might find a way."
Xia Lulu worried, "Even so, but how are you going to cast the Dragon Slayer’s doctrine? Your magic power will last?"
Wendi smiled at her, "It’s time to entrust Xia Lulu."
Xia Lulu turned her head, "Hmph, it’s clearly not your job... Just being stubborn."
Wendi sat in the center of the magic array in a 'duck sit' posture, closed her eyes, and made a praying gesture:
"Wandering soul here, your voice I will listen to—Dragon Slayer’s Milky Way!"
The magic array on the ground emitted a green light that shot up into the sky, illuminating a small patch of the night.
The glow of magic surrounded Wendi like fireflies, converging into a galaxy of stars, forming the Milky Way, magnificent and dazzling.
Xia Lulu admired for a moment, thinking such a conspicuous scene would surely attract many people: "We need to leave quickly with Wendi."
Wendi seemed to have been truly affected by the demon’s tail, causing her to make a lot of noise with every action.
After a while, Wendi suddenly opened her eyes, her face showing fear, and her body collapsed.
"Wendi!" Xia Lulu hurriedly supported Wendi, this didn’t look like mere exhaustion from magic, "What happened? What did you hear?"
"Xia Lulu... Quickly, we need to find Mr. Luo and the others..."
"What are you talking about? You should rest now!"
Wendi struggled to shake her head, "I’m fine, but we need to hurry..."
"Is it here?"
"It seems to be glowing here."
"Who is it?"
Although the magic glow had disappeared, nearby residents were still drawn over.
"In any case, let’s leave here first." Xia Lulu hastily erased the remaining magic array and carried Wendi away, flying off.
...
"This guy, also went too far." Luo covered his shoulder and stood up.
Because of the battle, the terrain had undergone significant changes, with small hills almost flattened and the middle valley filled with jagged rocks.
Not only due to the intense battle, but also because the demon before them used an exaggerated earth-type 'spell'!
Who in the academy would have thought to use an earth-type spell to seal an earth-type demon?
Or perhaps they didn’t know that the demon was earth-type?
"Wowah!" Natsu flew over.
"Tree Vines!" Rod slapped the ground, and several vines grew out, intertwining to form a net that caught Natsu, preventing him from crashing into the rocks.
Natsu's clothes were somewhat torn, and he had a bit of blood at the corner of his mouth, but he wiped it off and sprang up with renewed energy: "Damn, that guy is so tough!"
Erza's Starlight Armor had shattered, and she was now in her Black Wing Armor, nimbly leaping and dodging around Caniber's arms and shoulders.
She seized every opportunity to slash at the giant creature.
The first Crimson Mark Tree Monster had already been defeated, and now the Ember Crown on Erza was maintained by Rod's Tree Monster form.
Natsu's Ember Crown had disappeared, and to renew it, Rod would have to stop healing himself or summon a second Tree Monster.
However, they had achieved some results; the demon had been knocked down by their initial fierce attack.
Unfortunately, it defended itself with powerful earth-type 'magic' against the second wave of attacks and even launched a counteroffensive.
Caniber's body was now covered in wounds, with burn marks from flames, cuts from blades, and vicious claw marks from the monster.
But this creature, as its appearance suggested, had thick blood and high defense. Despite the prolonged battle, they had yet to inflict a fatal wound.
"Stereographic Letters: FIRE, FLAME, BLAZE!"
Rod swiftly wrote three characters representing fire, which transformed into yellow, orange-red, and orange flames, respectively.
"Thanks for the meal!" Natsu opened his mouth wide and swallowed the flames, with fire bursting from both his hands. "Happy, take me up!"
"Alright!" Happy grabbed Natsu and flew high into the sky, hovering directly above the demon. "Erza, get out of the way!"
Erza understood what Natsu was about to do. She pushed off Caniber's shoulder with her feet and flapped her wings to swiftly retreat.
"Combine the fire in my left hand with the fire in my right hand..."
Natsu raised both hands over his head, and the two flames merged into a massive fireball.
Rod felt that the pose was very similar to Goku's Kamehameha. He gritted his teeth and renewed the Ember Crown for Natsu.
"Fire Dragon's Blaze!"
"Roar~~~" Caniber bent over and pounded the ground heavily, causing two stone slabs to rise and curve above his head, protecting him from the flames.
However, the thick stone slabs shattered instantly, and the fireball enveloped Caniber's head, then spread to consume his entire body.
A painful scream echoed, causing everyone's ears to ring.
Natsu's voice rang out from the sky: "How about that, bastard!"
The answer was not good. Caniber's surface was covered in vicious burn marks, but when it pounded the ground again, a layer of stone armor formed over its body.
The stone armor burned and cracked due to the intense heat, but it also extinguished the flames.
Caniber opened its massive mouth and spewed a purple beam.
Happy reacted quickly, swiftly dodging with Natsu.
Erza was about to re-engage in the attack when Caniber hammered the ground with both fists, and a purple magic array spread from his fists, nearly covering the entire valley.
The ground trembled, and stone spikes shot up from the ground, aiming at Erza and Rod. Even if they dodged, the spikes continued to grow to heights of five to six meters.
—Another large-scale earth-type 'magic'!
This giant's health bar was shockingly long.
I wrote about Wendy's 'Galaxy' in my previous book, but I made some adjustments, changing it to 'listen to the soul' instead of just the dragon soul. (In the previous book, the setting was the One Piece world, but Wendy was summoned over.)
At that time, I planned to use it in the Wano Country arc to draw out Oden's soul and question him about his foolish actions, but I found the Wano Country arc less appealing and cut the entire plot, which is a bit of a regret.
