52 Chapter 52: Phantom Lord (2)
Chapter 52: Phantom Lord (2)
~Silva POV~
Entering through the guild halls and Fairy Tail's Basement level I was met with disgruntled expressions of the members murmuring about the recent events happening to the guild building.
As I was entering through, I met up with Mirajane attending the Requests Board along with Master drunk off his ass asking her, "Hello Mira I can't help but notice what happened to the Guild building? Do you have any idea who did this?"
She gives a curt nod as she began to explain to me in a frustrated tone about the whole situation, "Yeah. It was Phantom Lord they got us good when the Guild was empty to launch a sneak attack. Fortunately, though no one was harmed but…"
Her eyes dart towards the rest of the guild members clearly displeased by recent events but didn't act as I voiced out in a defeated tone, "Not everyone is happy about the situation? Damn…"
Understanding my frustration Mira could only nod as she left me to attend to her duties but not before giving me a tip as she did with everyone it seems with concern, "Yeah… but for safety reasons I suggest you stick together with people from the Guild Silva. Phantom Lord might have discovered your personal address and might attack one of our members when they're alone…"
I nodded in understanding as I take a look over the guild till my eyes landed on the familiar group going over to greet, "Sup everyone I guess you just got the news of what happened?"
Erza, Gray, Natsu, Lucy, and Happy all eyes landed on me but responded with a curt nod with Natsu voicing his displeasure of recent events, "Damn that Phantom Lord going around destroying our Guild… tch. Cowards not facing us when where here…"
He could only grumble as my eyes landed on Gray noticing Ur is not around asking him in a curious tone, "I see… Say Gray have you seen Ur she's usually with you at times. She's on a job I'm assuming?"
Gray replied with a curt nod and response with a shrug of his shoulders in a neutral tone of his voice, "She's on a job. It would take about a week's time before she could return and wanted some alone time."
I nodded in understanding seeing Erza I wondered if she knew any good Magic Weapons, but I shook that idea since she seems to be in her own world of deep thinking as I took my cue to leave with a few goodbyes here and there.

Leaving the guild building I leaned back to one of the outside cafés in Magnolia Town to ease my mind as I began to look over my stats after my training earning a +3 in stats.
That leaves me with 30 Stat points to add to my stats with the current dilemma occurring and what will happen tomorrow seeing Team Shadow Gear is around safe meaning the attack between them and Gajeel would occur.
Frowning at the idea there are too many things to think things through.
Walking around for a bit I finally decided on which stats to focus on for the upcoming fight being prepared for what's to come.
And I need to get many passive skills as I can to be able to make myself useful in the fight ahead and what's best than placing it on these focusing on what I need most?
Hmm…
Good enough.
Here's hoping for something good about adding these stats into each category here.

Whoa…!
Suddenly everything went into overdrive as I felt the great changes in my body as well as an immediate understanding of my organs going for a drastic change.
Taking the time to adjust and sniff a bit I was a bit shocked at how my body proceeded with the Guild's scent of each member differently along with peak vision making things look and sound better for me to adjust.
Even I feel a change go over my Teigu Demon's Extract as I subconsciously like the blood in me changed lightly as the new sensations of my organs and blood cells are reacting to the changes causing me to pant getting a hold of my new sensations.
Getting the hang of my new senses and sniffing around the place I managed to find and lock down on Team Shadow Gears distance apart causing me to smirk.
With the new sensations processing my physical abilities and enjoying the newfound rush I began to focus on what I needed to plan before Phantom Lord began their attack.
Best to stalk in silence unless I want to cause a ruckus…
/////
Waiting till it was past more into the night the new passive skill <Peak SEN> is certainly putting in the work seeing in the night just as it was clear as day.
This will definitely come in handy in night missions.
But that's beside, the point I began to sniff the area around me as I cautiously try to avoid getting attacked or ambushed.
I recall that no Team Shadow was crucified starting the way which leads me to doubt that this is the Anime verse of Fairy Tail.
The reason I doubt it is because I believe I'm in a mix between the Manga and Anime versions with the recent changes in the storyline.
The Anime version had Team Natsu return after helping Lucy on the job which would kick start them staying at her place leaving Team Shadow Gear to be attacked by Gajeel the Steel or was it Metal Dragon Slayer to pounce on the offensive?
In the Manga version, it was soon right after the Sub-Zero Emperor Arc that the Phantom Lord one's start soon after.
But considering the Changeling occurred I thought or safely assumed it to be the anime verse of Fairy Tail however, such ideas lead me to disregard the idea because while I can assume it could be the case I don't have real concrete proof of it happening in future events.
With Rongo Rongo however, I can search for such events and derail them early to earn myself some EXP in the process.
Although most importantly I have been placing my markers near or a few distances away from the Guild for a few reasons stopping the Jupiter Cannon attack and ensuring we have a fully powered Erza on our side from the get-go.
My Teigu Shambhala Trump Card <Lost Realm> will transport it into its pocket dimension nullifying the attack or return to sender via portals.
There was a reason why Teigu was so god damn powerful.
Afterward is Element 4 to consider as I'm more than willing to take the bullet for my good old friend Gray here to ensure my plan goes off well without dealing with one early on at least I hope I remember it was like that.
I mean I only know a few things from the show since it has been a long time and even then, it has been a long time since I could forget the small details that occurred only major events one's that I remember well. Maybe I should've invested in INT to help me remember.
Well…
No use in regrets now.
*Sniff*
*Sniff*
Smelling the air again I can detect a swift change of pheromones of another male target, heartbeat ecstatic pumping in excitement, and a distinct smell of iron on his person causing me to glare.
Time to make a proper introduction.

~Levy POV~
Walking down during the night through Magnolia Town I listened to Jet speaking out worried about my safety, "You sure this is okay? Shouldn't you and the other girls be at the girl's dorm?"
Nah.
Despite the dangers and warnings to the guildmembers, I think were okay as we are in a group that works well together.
Besides it's best to be safe with a team we work well with.
Having no worries, I replied to Jet with my arms open with no fears causing the two boys to drop down dramatically and return up of my intentions, "It's fine. I don't want to split up our team!"
The two began to go over how they would protect me as usual but their good friends to have around.
We have been childhood friends for a long while now and together we can overcome many challenges ahead.
*WOOSH*
"Ack!"
Not before regretting those words and not heeding the warning we were suddenly attacked from behind I felt a blunt force aimed at my head causing me to hit to a nearby wall as pain circulated through my body.
"LEVY!"
"Why –"
"<Iron's Dragon Iron Fist>!"
*BAM*
Regaining my vision from the brief attack from the blow to the head as I got the view of the attacker and horror seeing the scene before me with Droy and Jet knocked out.
….
"AHHH!!!"
I was clearly out of it for a few minutes only to reopen my eyes to see Droy and Jet beaten with injuries shown causing me to tremble at their broken limbs.
Clear signs of blunt damage and broken bones I could see sticking out as a tall and muscular young man with long, spiky black hair, which is usually kept slicked back, revealing his forehead. He has red eyes with slitted dark pupils and no visible eyebrows. Most of his exposed body is covered in sets of simple, round studs.
The most visible studs are on his face, with three of them above each of his eyes, two on each side of his nose, and two on his chin, just below his mouth. His ears are adorned by two sets of five earrings each. He also sports four studs on each of his forearms, with his right one being covered in scars.
But what got me even more scared was the fact his a member of the Phantom Lord Guild, as he bore their Phantom Lord mark on the top of his right shoulder.
He had a sadistic grin as I tremble to try to regain –
"AH –"
Before I could scream in pain the man with red eyes seemed happy as I felt my insides harmed from the force of his hand turned into metal he responded stopping my screaming, "Hehe… sorry little fairy but I need you and for your little simps to start the spark. Then again when your old man sees you beaten up will do just the trick."
My eyes widen – Ack!
*BAM*
He slammed his fist at my stomach as he began to beat me down over and over feeling my body in pain and spitting out blood as I try to call out for mercy, "St—Ack!"
Trying was the keyword as I try to get a word in the man soon goes for another but stops himself as his eyes dart towards the side with a shadow over us…?
*Fwp*
*PEW*
Like that, he avoided the incoming feathers out of nowhere moving to the side as I was suddenly held trying to regain my vision as I saw a figure I recognized before finally succumbing to my pain…
Silva…
He had an unreadable expression but from what I could tell he glared in the direction of the attacker with anger evident in his expression muttering to me, "I'm sorry for arriving late… but rest assured you can take it easy from here."
That was all I remembered before blacking out…
