Chapter 2131: Swift Battle 3
Chapter 2131: Swift Battle 3
As Haru had said in the previous chapter, the members of the Fairy Tail had a hard time fighting one of the members of the Spriggan 12 on their headquarters.
Out of all the members of the Spriggan 12, this person might not be the strongest, but he had the most troublesome magic of all.
Stealth.
Yes, this was the magic of Jacob Lessio, who was the “Assassin” in the Alvarez Empire.
With his magic, Jacob could boast that he might be the strongest assassin ever alive. He didn’t need to hide or kill from the dark, and no one had ever heard his name.
Why?
It was because Jacob had hidden and killed all his targets and witnesses.
Now, everyone was curious what Jacob’s magic was, right?
Stealth.
Stealth, also known as Assassination Magic, is a Caster Magic and variation of Concealment Magic that allows the user to make use of absolute camouflage.
This Magic allows the user to completely conceal their own presence, see what cannot normally be seen by others, and make what can normally be seen unseen. When the user erases their own presence, they wipe out their ability to be seen, heard, or smelled, thus allowing them to move about completely undetected, even if they were seen by people just prior.
But even so, it might be hard for Jacob to defeat all the members of the Fairy Tail that stayed at the headquarters which was why he used his other magic which was known as “Transport.”
Transport is a Caster Magic and a type of Spatial Magic that allows the user to teleport people into another dimension.
By using Transport, Jacob teleported everyone to another dimension and kept them inside. Of course, he couldn’t kill them until he took them out, but as long as it was one by one and being done in an assassination way, he believed that he could kill all of them.
It should be the case, and when Jacob tried to torture the ghost (Marvis) that he couldn’t see to get all the secrets of the Fairy Tail, Lucy, Happy, and Natsu escaped Jacob’s Transport and knocked him out.
“I’ll teach you a lesson so you’ll respect someone who is older than you,” Jacob said and started to use his “Stealth,” fighting against Natsu and Lucy.
As for Happy and Marvis, neither of them could fight so they became mascots and cheerleaders on the side.
If Haru was here, he would wonder why Lucy had never been attacked, and the one that had always been attacked was Natsu or other guys. However, it might be because of her weak and naive appearance that it caused the enemies to look down on her and focus on Natsu, who had always charged thoughtlessly without thinking.
In other words, Natsu was the one who attracted the attention and became a tanker for Lucy, waiting for the plot armor to help them.
However, unlike before where Brandish was trapped on another dimension with Transport by Jacob. Also, Jacob didn’t use his stupid torture who forced his enemy to watch a naked woman and it caused both Natsu and Lucy to be overwhelmed by Jacob’s attack.
Jacob was a master of hand-to-hand combat and compared to Natsu, he was several times stronger.
*Baam!* *Baam!* *Baam!*
Natsu was knocked out, punched, kicked, and stabbed with a knife on several parts of his body.
“NATSU!” 2x
Lucy and Happy screamed out, trying to help Natsu, but they were stabbed by the knives that were thrown by Jacob.
Marvis, who couldn’t do anything, also tried to think of a countermeasure at how to defeat Jacob since Jacob couldn’t be seen or noticed at all.
Even Natsu, who had a good sense of smell, good instinct, and also a protagonist, couldn’t even find Jacob, so how could a ghost, dumb girl, and a cat find where Jacob was?
“Now do you understand why you shouldn’t provoke a dignified grown man?” Jacob was furious at Natsu since this boy kept provoking him, so then he took out a knife and decided to end him. He even went as far as deactivating his magic since he didn’t think that they could defeat him.
“Natsu!” 2x
The voice of Lucy and Happy sounded once again, and they tried to help Natsu, but they couldn’t move since a lot of parts of their bodies were stabbed with knives.
Marvis also couldn’t do anything since she had been tortured by Jacob.
Jacob was about to stab Natsu’s head, but suddenly something moved so fast and slammed his head.
*BAAAAM!*
Jacob felt that he had almost lost consciousness, especially when the impact of that attack was enough to destroy the ground of the headquarters of the Fairy Tail. He knew that he needed to find back and used his magic to hide again, but then his brain was shaken several times before he passed out directly.
“………” Natsu, Lucy, Happy, and Marvis.
“I need to take care of the rest, go up and rest,” Haru said and was about to go back with Kagura.
Still, Kagura looked at Haru and felt proud since this guy had become stronger, right?
“Wait!” Natsu quickly shouted.
Haru didn’t hate Natsu, but he felt that this guy was troublesome since this guy had never used his head.
Lucy quickly slammed Natsu’s head directly since she felt that this guy was about to say something stupid and said, “Wait, Haru, everyone is still trapped inside this guy’s magic!”
“Oh?”
Haru looked at Jacob and used both of his telepathic ability and Elemental Sight before he nodded and controlled Jacob to return everyone.
Then a moment later, everyone that was trapped by Jacob returned to the headquarters of the Fairy Tail.
“Then I’ll go out now,” Haru said, but then Natsu quickly stopped, and said, “Thank you!”
Haru looked at Natsu, then nodded, before he walked away with Kagura. Of course, he also brought Neinhart and Jacon that had been trapped with Seal Magic.
When Haru had gone, everyone on the Fairy Tail had learned what had happened, but they couldn’t say anything for a while since Haru’s charm was so huge that it made them stagnant and couldn’t think for a moment. His charm was like a black hole, even if they didn’t want to, they would be absorbed and no one could escape.
Of course, an idiot like Natsu wouldn’t be affected by Haru’s charm, but for others, whether they were female or male, they were all affected.
After Haru caught Jacob, he set his eyes toward the north area of the Fiore Kingdom, but before he went there, he felt powerful magic that affected the entire kingdom. He knew that there was only one person who could use this magic, and he felt that he shouldn’t bring Kagura when he faced this strong magician since the scene where he defeated this strong magician wouldn’t be suitable to be shown to Kagura.
—
In the northern area of the Fiore Kingdom right before the magic that affected the entire Fiore Kingdom was affected, most of the members of the Infinite guild were fighting hard against the armies of the Alvarez Empire.
Sting, Rogue, Orga, Rufus, Yukino, and Minerva were almost overwhelmed even though Gajeel, Levy, Lisanna, Elfman, Mirajane, and Lily were fighting along with them in the north area against the Alvarez Empire.
But suddenly when they were almost defeated…
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!*
“ARRGGGGG!!!”
The screams of the soldiers of the Alvarez Empire were heard, but no one focused on those defeated soldiers, instead, they focussed on the single muscular man with two antenna-like bangs and a tight superhero suit.
“You don’t need to worry… Why?
“Because I’m here!”
All Might entered the battlefield!
