Chapter 57: Phantom Lord (7)
~Third POV~
*Wooosh*
Exiting out from the cannon tunnel Silva witnessed the giant Lacrima used to fuel the Jupiter Cannon and spoke out impressed, "That's a very big Lacrima huh? Guess this magic-focusing gun is a weapon that shoots out concentrated magical power as ammunition. And you must be its guard."
Silva's eyes dart towards a young man with long, two-toned hair of black and white that is tied up into a Japanese-style top knot on the back of his head, with the black portion overlaying the front and left side of his head, leaving the smaller white portion concentrated on the left, with the top knot also having the two separate colors correspondingly.
He is garbed in a ninja-like attire consisting of a long, orange-reddish Karate gi-like cloth, held closed by a black belt, with prominent reddish fur around the collar, and with the sides being made of thick fishnet, with other, looser fishnet appearing on his forearms, with his robe's sleeves being rolled up. His attire is completed by a simple shirt appearing from under his gi, and a pair of loose black pants tucked inside simple black boots. He also carries around a simple katana strapped to his left hip.
Quickly using <Observe> on him Silva saw the info needed.
[Totomaru Lv.150 Element 4]
Both of them meet their eyes together as Totomaru began to introduce himself to Silva in a calm tone, "You must be the one named Silva Knights a rookie in Fairy Tail and the one to have defeated Juvia. I'm Totomaru of the Element 4 a Fire Mage."
Seeing that he didn't strike Silva tried to be the civil one in the conversation both each having their hands at the handle of their blades, "You would assume correct. And I know this is dumb saying this, but you wouldn't happen to let me go destroying the giant Lacrima right?"
*Shinng*
Brandishing his sword out followed by a cold reply, "No."
*Shinng*
Taking out his Rune Sword Silva snorted back at Totomaru's response, "Tch. Figures as much."
*CLANG*
Both soon clashed blades with each intent stopping the other party as they began to parry each other's, strikes with precision and speed as Silva picks up the pace using <Breathing> and <Mana Reinforcement> to increase his physical strength.
*Klak*
*Clang*
*Sinng*
*CLANG*
Parrying his sword strikes and Totomaru managed to gain some cuts on Silva's body but a few in return noticing slash marks on his clothing.
Both remained calm eyeing each other carefully circling around trying to get an oppertunity to strike one down cautiously waiting for one to cause a mistake.
Both slowly take a step back after matching blade to blade with their weapons showing signs of breaks as Totomaru the silence as he voices out somewhat impressed, "Okay. That was decent swordsmanship newbie, but I control the element of fire. Every fire is under my control."
*Vweee*
*Glmm*
*Glmm*
*Glmm*
The Jupiter Cannon soon began to gather power as Silva's eyes remained focused on Totomaru not giving him the advantage as a series of rainbow fires began to erupt from his hand, "I would like to play with you more, but I need to end this. Such a shame but here is your path end fairy. Let's see you handle my ultimate attack!!! <Rainbow Fire>!!"
*BRRR*
Silva merely smirked quickly taking out the Magic Giant Frying Pan out from his Requip Ring surprising Totomaru muttering out, "A frying pan? Whatever he won't survive this!!"
*BRRRR*
*Wooosh*
Responding he threw his <Rainbow> fire directed at Silva not even afraid to unleash his strongest attack at a weaker foe but to Totomaru's shock, Silva turned the frying pan from the bottom part of the pan absorbing Totomaru <Rainbow Fire> intensifying it as he rushed towards him.
Not knowing the nature of the Magic Tool in Silva's hand able to absorb his fire he cautiously took his distance back not realizing that was what Silva wanted.
*PEW*
*BOOM*
Quickly turning the Giant Frying Pan's concave part released a powerful intensified version of the <Rainbow Fire> at the Giant Lacrima powering the capable of destroying it entirely with a smirk on his face speaking, "Wow!!! That's a spicy meatball wouldn't you say?"
Totomaru was in a state of disbelief seeing his own Fire Magic was one of the leading causes of their Guild Giant Lacrima being destroyed as he glares hatefully at Silva, "You –"
*BOOM*
Before he could respond Silva used his skill <Bloodlust> directed at him when he least expected it causing him to shiver in fear as the figure of a man disappeared from his vision replaced with a bloodthirsty monster in Silva's place as all of his stats lowered by 50%.
Raising his blade steadily realizing that his Fire Magic was useless he began to rush in with his katana in an attempt to stop Silva however that was when he voices out, "This is game set and match."
Not understanding those words Totomaru regardless charges in but –
*Gm*
*Gm*
*Gm*
Totomaru lost his footing for a brief second quickly realized that the whole room was shaking and turning as Super Giant Phantom Mk II but using his meta knowlegde Silva just waited for the opportune moment he was waiting for using any advantage he could get as flew above with Mastema in the air.
*BOOM*
*WOOSH*
Using <Mana Burst> to propel himself near Totomaru with his stats weakened with one swing of his <Slash> and <Mana Burst> radiating off with his Rune Sword sheathed focusing to end it in one strike with him focusing his Mana into his blade shining a blue light.
*BAM*
"Ack!!"
One strike to Totomaru's midsection as he was sent towards the nearby wall coughing out blood barely keeping himself conscious before finally fainting with Silva sighing in relief defeating Totomaru using the environment and his ego for his win.

[You gain 150 EXP]
[LEVEL UP!]
[You gained the rare drop Runestone – Pyrokinesis!]
[You have defeated a member of the Element 4 [2/2]!]
[Bonus Objective #1 completed!]
Holding the rare item in my hand I didn't expect to get a skill from defeating him just the EXP but I'm not going to complain about getting a new skill though.
<Observe>.
----

----
This is the first time I ever got a Runestone before and it contains a pretty powerful skill if used properly.
*Krak*
[Ding!]
[You broke the Runestone – Pyrokinesis!]
[Skill gained <Pyrokinesis>!]
Before taking a look at my new skill I soon noticed slash marks and bleeding on my body that were from sword slashes.
Damn.
Got a bit careless confronting him alone and paid the price. But that's to be expected of an S-Class Wizard but comparing him to Erza swordplay she fights way harder.
Nothing with a little <Recovery Breathing> can't handle.
Whew…
[Ding!]
[<Recovery Breathing> is now in effect!]
Skill List.
----

----
Taking the time to properly recover I took out Rongo Rongo from my Requip Ring and began searching the blueprints of the whole area searching for everything I would need around these parts.
Having a brief look and memorizing the directions I needed to go I closed Rongo Rongo and returned it back to my Requip Ring as made sure to make a mad dash using <Sprint> to quickly rush ahead to the next destination.
Wait…
The Phantom Lord Magic Library is a few doors down…
…
This is for the greater good taking what I need and for future damages.
*WOOSH*
/////
Running across the hallways of the Guild turned mech after raiding their Magic Library which was totally worth it~
Hehehe…
Continuing forward I rushed with my <Breathing> active till I finally arrived at my destination of meeting another member of the Element 4 going in the correct direction.
Stopping myself in the direct path ahead was the Earth fucker in the suit Sol.
<Observe>.
[Sol Lv.150 Element 4]
Standing face to face Sol seemed to be surprised I arrived as he shook his head in greeting me in his weird French accent, "Non, non, non! Salut my cible you have been quite the disrespectful guest here! You managed to not only defeat Juvia but Motorau as well, why oh my those are such great feats for someone so weak."
Rolling my eyes I have Spectator activated on Foresight to see the smallest movement and I'll know to react accordingly as he continues to speak, "You my dear gentleman have been a mean thorn on our side! Non, non, non! I believe that someone such as I should deal with you personally Monsieur Knight!"
*WOOSH*
Rushing ahead with Mastema with my Rune Sword attempting to cut the man but he dodged with an odd curve to his body he continues to boast as I remain focused, "I know all about you… Or rather, data on all the Fairy Tail Wizards in my head all but you. You seemingly out of nowhere, no dates, no hometown or village much less any sort of identification."
*Shinng*
Swinging my sword at Sol he dodged again as he jumped up in the air as I release a torrent of feathers directed at him.
*Fwp*
*PEW*
*PEW*
But he had a counter I stood my guard as I saw a swirl of sand coming towards me followed by the spell's attack holding Ricochet up to reflect the attack back, "<Sable Dance>! I'm no fool, good sir. But I know all about your tricks now with my monocle whispering such things to I! Especially your reflecting Magic Shield!!"
Blocking and reflecting the attacks thrown a hand suddenly got to my arm as it continued to stretch coming around me stretching me with his elastic body creeping me the hell out, "Peekaboo!"
Like I said creepy.
*Creee*
Flinching I felt that my arm he wrapped around with the sounds of my bone creaking as I used <Mana Reinforcement> to keep my body intact as the creaking sound stops growling at him, "You are one mean creep you know that?"
Trying to pull out the man trying to break my arm holding one part of his body but soon retracted himself away as he spoke, "Non, non, non!! Three times non is not enough to speak of! Monsieur Sol, if you please."
*Nyuluh*
*Kakk*
Gahumph!
*Skrrch*
Feeling the pain of the man kicking me on the head as I skid across the floor with blood dripping from my head showing but the man was relentless as I brought my Ricochet up to defend yelling out <Plâtre Sonata> as a giant fist from plaster and punches at me.
*KLANK*
*GACHOOM*
Blocking the attack, I was hit by the force that came from the plaster fist I moved my arm holding my shield behind me destroying the wall behind me and revealing the opening to the outside –
"Urgh…"
That was when I froze listening to a familiar voice as my head looked in the direction of Mira slowly being crushed as I shifted my focus –
Ignoring Sol I rushed ahead using <Cage> on my Teigu feathers enhancing with Mana then with <Mana Reinforcement> to strengthen them along with Sol trying to attack me as I heard his voice, "This is checkmate Monjueir Knight! <Merci la Vie>!!"
[Ding!]
[Mental-based spell attempting to read player's mind!]
[<Merci la Vie> spell has been negated by <Indominable Spirit> skill!]
*WOOSH*
Dashing immediately I used my Mastema-enhanced wings to cut through the stone fingers of the mech cutting them like slashing butter with a hot knife as Mira began to freefall but not before grabbing her princess-like fashion.
Noticing my wounds I couldn't help but smirk trying to calm down the situation, "Hey Mira how's it hanging?"
She only glared at me before sighing thanking me for the save in a calm tone, "Bad pun but thanks. Wait… why were you inside Phantom Lord?!!"
Laughing nervously at that I replied as I gazed my eyes at Sol preparing another stone attack in our direction, "Haha… Yeah… how about I take a raincheck not answering and avoid being pelted by rocks?"
"<Roche Concerto>!!"
I'm really starting to hate the French listening anymore from this guy…
