Chapter 219 Initiating Nirvana!
The terrifying energy annihilated everything around it, carving out a desolate wasteland deep within the lush vegetation of the Weiss Forest.
At the edge of the wasteland, yellow sand swirled, and an ancient building, as massive as a small mountain, was revealed, exuding a strong and dangerous aura.
"Although I didn't get to enjoy it to the fullest, at least it didn't disappoint me." Chase stood in the crater-covered pit, deactivated his Sky Dragon Mode, and raised his hand to grab at the void.
Surrounded by shimmering light, a brand new card was immediately held between his fingers.
The Curtain of Dark Magic is a magic card from the Dark Magician series. It allows you to Special Summon Dark Magician by paying half of your magic power.
If this card had been used since before the time traveler became powerful, it would have been quite strong, and could even have been used as an assassin.
To put it simply: even a weakling like Happy can summon the powerful card spirit Dark Magician with this card!
Even now, this effect is not entirely useless for Chase, who possesses the power of the Ten Great Saints.
Special Summoning does not consume mana. When facing a powerful enemy who requires you to use up all your cards, having an extra Dark Magician might just be the key to turning the tide!
Of course, the likelihood of such an extreme situation occurring is not high.
Therefore, the more direct function of this Dark Magician's Curtain is actually to serve as a new card to supplement the deck, increasing Chase's magic power limit!
"Chesgo!"
"You idiot owner!"
Just as Chase was happily putting away the new card, he heard Lucy and the Dark Magician Girl cheering behind him.
Looking back, they saw the allied forces, having dealt with the Dark Guild's minions, running quickly toward them.
"Wow, you little brat! You've gotten so much stronger in just a short time!" Uru raised his hand and slapped Chess's shoulder hard.
Even someone as knowledgeable as her was taken aback by the astonishingly powerful God-Slaying Profound Technique she had just witnessed.
Looking around at the horrifyingly shattered battlefield and the Oración Seis guild master whose aura had completely vanished, a faint sorrow appeared on Uru's face.
The campaign to subdue the Oración Seis was successfully completed, and the reputation and contributions required for the Ten Saints' assessment were no longer a problem. However, the thought of having Chase as a competitor gave her a headache.
Also looking worried was Jura, who was standing quietly at the back of the crowd and had been challenged by Chess.
"Sorry, Uru, that guy should have been left to you." Chase chuckled and scratched his head.
Besides wanting to squeeze every last bit of value out of Brian, he was also worried that Uru, being such a nice guy, wouldn't be able to bring himself to do it.
Even if Brian harbored a deep-seated hatred towards her, even to the point of "killing" her daughter!
"It doesn't matter what happens, I'm already quite satisfied that I can meet with Ultear from time to time like this after I've died once."
Uru glanced sideways at Gray and Leon, who were naked beside him, and pulled them into his arms from either side.
"And of course, there are those two idiot disciples!"
"Damn it, Uru! You're about to die, let go of me!!" x2
"Hahaha, you guys are still so cute~" Uru laughed heartily.
Through this battle against the Oración Seis, she witnessed Gray and Leon's growth firsthand and felt happy to have the opportunity to fight alongside them.
"Damn it! I wasn't even done playing yet, how did it end so quickly!"
Looking annoyed, Natsu turned to Lucy and said seriously, "Hey Lucy! Let's have a fight!"
This kid usually seems carefree, but he's surprisingly thoughtful. He noticed Lucy had really gotten stronger while he was clearing out the grunts.
"Who wants to fight you? I just want to finish this mission and go home to take a shower!" Lucy crossed her arms, rejecting the challenge quite decisively.
Influenced by Chess and the confidence gained from defeating Sora in a one-on-one fight, she no longer fears and runs away from battles she can't avoid, and has slightly adopted the style of a Fairy Tail mage.
Unfortunately, Natsu clearly doesn't fall into that category in her eyes.
"Hey~! Xia Lulu, do you want to take a bath too?"
Happy the flirtatious cat immediately chimed in, "Lucy's bathroom is a bit small, but overall it's quite comfortable. And there's fresh fish in the fridge to eat after you shower!"
"That's my house! And how did you know there was fish in the fridge? Don't take my things to give as gifts!!"
Lucy didn't give the dead cat a friendly look at all, and immediately launched into a barrage of angry complaints.
Xia Lulu, equally unimpressed, still stood with her hands on her hips, turning her head away in disgust.
On the other side, Erza, looking disgusted, used her long sword to hang Ichiya, who was trying to harass her, in mid-air.
Wendy and Minerva whispered to each other, occasionally glancing up at Chase.
After teaming up to defeat the evil Scythe Wind Man, their relationship became much closer, and they became best friends who could talk about anything.
Unlike when we first gathered at the Bopu villa, we were no longer so restrained.
The others also had smiles on their faces, chatting idly in twos and threes, enjoying the relaxation after the battle.
However, this relaxed atmosphere was soon broken by the sound of hurried footsteps in the distance.
Soldiers, armed with spears and clad in armor, stood in two rows and walked slowly forward, followed by the Oración Seis General and a group of members of the Dark Guild.
"The Council? You've come at just the right time," Erza remarked, shaking the blade of her sword and tossing the night-blooming jasper onto the ground.
"Aren't they always this efficient at cleaning up the battlefield?" Chase came to her side and teased her with a light laugh.
In a short while, the leader of the army had already approached.
It was an old acquaintance, Lahar.
"To all members of the Light Guild, we are very grateful for your tremendous contributions to the campaign against the Oración Seis."
Lahar bowed deeply to the crowd, and began in impeccable official jargon, "Because of your valiant efforts, a conspiracy that could have endangered the entire country has been successfully thwarted!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than Yi Ye, who had just gotten up from the ground and whose face was still covered in mud, jumped out to seek attention.
"You're welcome, brothers of the Council. We engaged in a fierce battle with the Oración Seis and its affiliated dark guilds. Although the enemy was strong, the bond between our comrades led us to victory!"
While speaking, he kept striking flirtatious poses, describing the entire battle in a dazzling and colorful manner.
"As expected of a teacher!" Three handsome men immediately chimed in.
"Man~!" Yi Ye raised her hand to brush aside the flowing strands of hair on her forehead, revealing her stunningly beautiful face (in her own opinion).
This move not only interrupted Lahar's subsequent speech, but also left the coalition forces speechless.
"It's so annoying, they got all the bargains!" Gray's lips twitched.
"Aside from showing off when he appeared at the villa, has this guy ever defeated any of the Oración Seis?" Lucy really wanted to ask.
"Hi hi hi hi!"
"Ichiyo-sama!"
"Hi hi hi hi!"
"Show off your skills!"
Ignoring the numerous eye-rolls from the Council's army, the three handsome men danced a shameless celebratory dance.
Wait a minute? Chesgo and Nazhabi are jumping up there too, and Uru too?!
Even Wendy and Minerva only realized something was wrong when Lucy suddenly noticed that it was too late: the strange dance seemed to have some kind of magic, and their bodies were moving uncontrollably to the rhythm of the rap!
"No, I didn't expect Mr. Chase to have such a supportive side—" The serious-looking Jura was stunned.
"That's the kind of man he is." Erza smiled slightly, her beautiful eyes reflecting Chess's image.
Rahar across from him coughed lightly.
Not knowing how to interrupt the scene in front of him, he pushed up his glasses and decided to pretend he hadn't seen it. He straightened his expression and went straight into the process.
"That's how it is. I will report truthfully on everyone's contributions to maintaining stability in the magical world, and the relevant honors and awards should be issued soon."
"Next, please allow us to escort the Oración Seis and its members from the Dark Guilds back to the Council for legal trial!"
Upon hearing this, Chess Lucy and the others stopped their silly celebratory dance.
No one objected to Lahar's request, since it was a task assigned by the council.
It would be best for them to clean up the battlefield themselves, which would save them the trouble of transferring supplies.
After a few casual words, Chess handed the card containing Sono to Lahar.
Thus, all six members of the Oración Seis were fitted with Demon-Sealing Gauntlets and escorted to the Council Prison.
Watching Richard's dejected figure, Chase wanted to tell him about his brother Wally, whom he had been searching for, but ultimately decided against it.
At this point, Richard is not influenced by Nefan and becomes kind as in the original story. As he says after learning the truth, this is "a miracle given to those who believe in the light."
If they can finally see the truth during their long prison life, then even if Chase doesn't say anything, the two brothers, separated for many years, will eventually reunite.
"With that, the operation to defeat the Oración Seis is finally a complete success!"
Watching the Council's army gradually disappear into the distance, Lucy couldn't help but let out a sigh.
The others also showed expressions of relief, excitedly discussing the honors and awards that Rahar had just mentioned.
Since it's a mission directly assigned to the Light Guild by the Council, the reward must be quite high!
"Speaking of which, where's Chess?" Erza suddenly asked.
"Ai~ He and Natsu went over there."
Harpy raised his paw and pointed to the distant hill, "They said they're going to activate Nesh."
"There's really no way to deal with those two. They've already defeated the Oración Seis, and they still want to go—"
Erza suddenly froze, her beautiful eyes widening in surprise. "Wait, Happy! What did you say?"
At the same time, Urujura and the others who were chatting also realized what was happening and were all shocked.
"Activate, initiate Nirvana?!!"
