Chapter 747: Serena vs. Claire
Chapter 747: Serena vs. Claire
"I don't know how vast the world is? How laughable!"
As the Celestial Spirit King Serena heard Claire's words, his expression turned somewhat sinister, and lifting his chin, he said, "In my opinion, it should be that you, who hasn't traveled in hundreds of years, are no longer clear about how vast this world has become! While you were indolent and stagnant, someone has completely surpassed you!"
As his voice fell, Serena's eyes suddenly turned into a dark backdrop, and a vast amount of magic wildly surged out from his body. Then, with him as the center, the ground within a radius of hundreds of meters suddenly collapsed and shattered!
The earth, shattered into countless blocks, accompanied by the force of destruction, rushed in all directions, also enveloping Claire!
"Crumbling Earth of the Cave Dragon!"
In the distance,
Having already retreated to hundreds of meters away, and being supported by Elfman, Natsu witnessed this scene, and his expression changed as he asked, "Is this Dragon Slayer Magic again?"
Although he also learned Dragon Slayer Magic, the orthodox one, in terms of magic power, he was far from comparable to Serena.
The Dragon Slayer Magic released by the Celestial Spirit King Serena was indeed, according to his memory, seemingly not as strong as his father, the Fire Dragon King Igneel, but it was still comparable to that of a real dragon!
"Be careful!"
Lisanna clenched her fists, looking at Claire's back, enveloped by the crumbling earth, and couldn't help but exclaim, a hint of anxiety flashing in her eyes.
However, immediately after that, a ball of scorching flame appeared in the crumbling earth, bursting out from Claire's body and swirling around her, curbing the Dragon Slayer Magic of the crumbling earth and holding back a burning area.
"This is Phoenix Magic..."
Seeing his attack easily countered by Claire, Serena's eyes flickered as he said, "As expected, it's extraordinary. But, Dragon Slayer Magic is the strongest magic! It's not over yet! Sea King Dragon's Water Square Formation!!"
Boom!!!
Accompanied by his roar, a torrential flood turned into a raging storm-like tsunami and slammed into Claire from the left.
"Inferno of the Purgatory Dragon!"
"Wind Magic of the Storm Dragon!"
One after another, roars were transmitted from the raging magic, along with that terrifying magic power that seemed capable of destroying a country, one could feel the sky and the earth violently trembling.
The raging magic turned into flames and storms, consecutively assaulting Claire from the right and front, and in a short span of time, four types of Dragon Slayer Magic had been unleashed!
But it wasn't over yet!
"Deadly Winter of the Frost Dragon!"
"World Destruction of the Abyss Dragon!"
"Ripping Illusion of the Nightmare Dragon!"
"Blood Blast of the Blood Fiend Dragon!"
With Serena's magic power far surpassing that of an ordinary Saint Ten Wizard, eight types of Dragon Slayer Magic were released in an instant, one after another, with eight completely different attributes and magic powers completely covering an area of nearly a thousand meters.
Even though the members of Fairy Tail had retreated to hundreds of meters away, they were still affected by this large-scale magical explosion.
Seeing this, Makarov, standing at the forefront of the crowd, couldn't help but change his expression. He immediately shouted and stimulated the magic power within his body, releasing a defensive spell.
Buzz!!!
The remaining magic power in Makarov's body transformed into a golden magical barrier that stood in front of him.
Even though most of the attack's power was concentrated on Claire, with only the aftermath spreading to them, it was still beyond what Makarov's remaining magic power could withstand.
Elsa and the others were so shocked by Serena's formidable power and strength that they forgot about their awe. Seeing Makarov struggle to hold back the aftermath, they hurriedly channeled the magic within themselves, stopping in their tracks and unleashing a variety of spells to defend against the incoming attack.
"Dark Barrier!"
"Adamantite Shield!"
"Five Magic Arrays, Mirror Water!"
Elsa, Mira, and the other S-class mages, including Mistgun, took action, along with some other responsive mages, gritting their teeth and exerting their magic.
Although these spells were of different natures and couldn't effectively merge to form a complete and unified spell, when combined, they barely managed to withstand the aftermath of the incoming Dragon Slayer Magic.
On the other side.
Inside the Fairy Tail guild hall.
Witnessing Serena unleashing his full power and showcasing the terror of eight types of Dragon Slayer Magic in an instant, Lucy, Levy, and the others were stunned. Amidst their awe, they felt immense tension and anxiety.
"What terrifying magic..."
"Even if that woman is the number one mage in Ishgar, facing such an attack, she would still..."
Lucy's forehead broke out in a cold sweat, and she couldn't help but tremble as she spoke.
Even Wendy, who had retreated and was now in Four's embrace, showed a hint of tension and worry. But at that moment, Four spoke, his tone calm.
"Not even close."
Eclair possesses the complete power of the Phoenix.
The strength of the Phoenix is on par with ordinary dragons, and it belongs to the same level as the Sky Dragon Grandeeney and other dragons. Only the Dragon Kings are stronger than the Phoenix.
Although Celestial Spirit King Serena hadn't gone to the West Continent and had gained stronger magic through the magic ball he left behind, he still fell short of the true Dragon race.
Moreover...
Eclair's strength was, in fact, already beyond that of a mere Phoenix.
Many years ago, when Four was researching unique magics such as Life Magic, he had performed simulations based on his own power. During this process, he had also used Eclair as a test subject, experimenting on her body with some distinctive spells.
Four's power was exceedingly potent; a mere drop of vitality escaping from his body would be enough to create countless beings comparable to dragons in this world.
Thus, although he exercised restraint and performed these experiments on a minute scale, and although he tried to restore Eclair to her original state and retract his power after each attempt, some residual amount had still fused with her life essence over the repeated trials.
Afterward.
Four noticed this and didn't deliberately use time reversal to reclaim his power completely; he decided to leave it as a gift to her.
Although it was only a minuscule amount, it still elevated Eclair's life to a new plane. In terms of combat power, she might not be a match for the Dragon Kings, nor Acnologia, the Black Dragon King, but when it came to the trait of 'immortality,' even Acnologia couldn't kill her!
In other words.
She possessed the strength to battle with the Fire Dragon King and the Black Dragon King, let alone face a Celestial Spirit King Serena, who hadn't even reached the level of an ordinary dragon.
As Four had thought before, it would be beneath him to intervene personally just because of someone like Serena. He wanted to continue enjoying his current peaceful life for a while longer.
