Chapter 58: Phantom Lord (8)
~Third POV~
*Zugak*
*Gakgak*
*Gakgak*
Multiple rocks were soon thrown at Mira and Silva with him holding Mira in his arms as she yips being suddenly flying around avoiding the incoming rock projectiles Silva couldn't help but point out stating the obvious, "So… care to explain how you got yourself caught by the giant mech of all things?"
For her part, Mira explains to Silva as he focuses, on avoiding being crushed by rocks maneuvering around in the air, "Sigh… I tried to trick Jose by using my Transformation Magic to dress up as Lucy when his soldiers went berserk. But that failed when he spoke, he sent Gajeel after Lucy and he retaliated by capturing me. What's your story?"
*Wooosh*
Avoiding another boulder Silva replied simply in a casual manner to Mirajane shocking her with the news, "Oh? Nothing much but going wild and defeating their Element 4 to stop what I assume to be the Abyss Spell forming. Got two for two aiming for a third if I wasn't trying to save you from being crushed right now."
*Woosh*
Avoiding more rocks Silva for his part kept an eye on him as Mira couldn't help but feel depressed looking down as Sol mocked the two trying to get a rise out of him, "Oh, ho! If that isn't the former S-Class Wizard, she must none other than be the former 'Demon Lady' feared by the world. Can it be Mirajane-sama?! Oh, dear! How she declined in power in magical power after her failure to save her sister from her brother going berserk."
Mira flinched as Silva remained calm but only glare at Sol while his Spectator switched to Clearsight viewing the building and seeing a familiar figure nearing their locations switching his expression causing Sol to frown as he knew his words didn't affect him.
Sol began to activate another <Merci la Vie> on Mira this time but before he could steps of people entered his area as he tilted his head all that left Silva the opportunity to unleash <Bloodlust> when his back was turned.
Sol's body trembled in fear as Silva released a series of <Mana Burst> that was stored inside each of his feathers that were charged using <Cage> bursting out causing a series of explosions from the Mana within them.
*BOOM*
*BOOM*
*BOOM*
Mira looked a bit surprised by the widespread explosions but didn't question it as Silva began to glide to the entrance of the room witnessing Sol's body being defeated with noticeable burn marks from the Mana explosions.
*Bmp*
*Bmp*
*BOOM*
Suddenly coming out from the ground with the fake being destroyed in front of the two's eyes was a <Stone Statue> clone as Sol came out with bruises shown yelling at them, "Non, non, non!! You shan't defeat Monsieur Sol you fairies!! Prepare to face your worst – "
"<Moonslice>!!"
"<Ice Make: Cold Excalibur>!!"
*Shinng*
"ACKK!!!"
But soon enough Sol took the full brunt of Gray and Erza's attack causing him to crash down to the ground barely conscious mumbling out, "Non… non –"
"<Mana Burst>."
*PEW*
Blasting a small <Mana Burst> Sol instantly defeated him earning Silva an increase of 150 EXP for the one to get the landing blow as he responded in disdain, "That was for being an annoying bastard and the biggest asshole I ever had the displeasure of meeting. Oh, and making Mira hurt but mostly being an annoyance!!"
Gray and Erza both looked perplexed as Mira merely chuckled explaining what happen immediately joining and kicking the living shit out of Sol while he was down ganging up on him mercilessly.

Hmm…
Seems like I have taken some damage nothing that <Recovery Breathing> can't help to increase my HP to restore again at the very least.
Also, it seems like my idea of earning double the effort of defeating more than enough of Element 4 didn't appear.
Guess that means during missions doing double the effort won't count here. Damn and here I thought I was going to abuse a mechanic if it worked.
I mean it worked on the daily quest but not here?
Perhaps I was hoping for too much, wonder how the others are dealing with that Earth Magic Caster now.
Taking a quick glance at the group it seems like Mira is watching them beat up Sol for trying to give her to show her worse fear which only seemed to enrage them for even attempting such an idea.
Reminds of that Jojo scene ganging up on a guy from parts 5 and 3.
Good times.
*Krak*
Nice.
"Silva!"
My thoughts were interrupted as Erza came close and grabbed my head slamming my face on her chest with her armor on apologizing, "I deeply apologize for leaving the guild undefended leaving it to you to help everyone in my moment of weakness! I shall not let such a thing happen again!!"
Ow…
So this is what it feels like to be slammed by Erza as she separated from me with Gray voicing out to me about my stunt, "Damn man… when me and Erza saw you enter the giant walking Guild we booked it to see if we can help. Didn't expect you to take out half of the Element 4 charging in here?"
Excuse me?
I coughed clearly correcting that mistake causing Gray to have a tick mark vein popping out as I correct him, "You mean 3. I did land the final blow to Sol at the end so that's 3 for 3 Gray. I'm aiming for 4 at this point."
Gray could only close his eyes as he struggles to keep his smile irritating him with the smug grin on my face, "Yeah same cocky bastard alright. Why was I ever worried? I mean we did help you out on the 3 one so it's really 2 you took out Silva? We did most of the work on that Earth Caster."
Oh, this ice boy…
Tch.
Mentally clickling my tongue if it was any other day I would argue with him with the sacred rule called kill steal but that's for another time.
Deal with Phantom Lords crownies now.
Sighing though I'll admit that since we have more pressing matters to attend to addressing the elephant of the room, "Sigh… yeah. But arguing aside though anyone wants to talk about dealing with the last Element 4 member and Jose?"
That brought the mood down as Erza being the optimist determined girl that she is spoke out with anger in her voice, "You mean Aria of the Element 4. With you taking out 3 he and Jose are the only ones that remain. I personally will handle him as he was for the reason why Master is currently in the state his in."
Agreeing to those Gray voices out another issue the Wizard Saint Jose with some doubt in his voice, "Okay so Erza gets Aria but what about Jose his a Wizard Saint so I doubt we could last long without the Master present. But… what are our odds against him."
Checking Jose out using my Spectator in Clearsight to bypass the matter seeing Jose himself but bruised up and bleeding from different places with a smirk on my face, "I say we have good odds… no. I would rather say Erza has the best odds with Jose's wounds not looking any good with the current state his in. Hehe… really love my Shambhala for landing that hit."
Erza looked at me with a nod trusting my judgment Mira asked curiously what I meant tilting her head, "What do you mean you see Jose Silva? Does it have to with the headgear on your head?"
I merely gave a curt nod in agreeing as I pointed towards Spectator explaining to them in a proud tone, "I can see many things using my Magic Tool Spectator. It actually helped me a lot against those Element 4 more than I can admit. The ability to see matters looking past their clothes, clear vision, mind reading, focus vision, and illusion casting."
Erza looked impressed before Mira tilted her head feeling a slight shiver down my spine coming off from her, "Silva… question would you please answer? Did you by chance use that to peep on the female members?"
When she asked me this question, I answered the best way I knew how.
Lie.
I want to live to the next day thank you very much.
Shaking my head naturally explaining to Mira that she returned with a nod accepting my answer because of the situation causing Gray and Erza to pale at my suggestion, "Hell no!! Not only would it be disrespectful I don't want to imagine what Master looks like naked!! I'm not ready for that psychological hell thank you very much. I only use it when neccessary!! For shame for doubting me. Hmph!"
Mira merely raised an eyebrow before letting the subject go for now seeing we have more pressing matters.
Phew...
Dodged a bullet there.
And trust me I don't want to die today.
Gray held his mouth muttering to himself at my suggestion, "Oh, I think I'm gonna be sick."
Gray you are gay for even thinking that.
Erza merely nodded accepting to trust my reasoning as did Mirajane for the time being as she grins getting our attention now, "Now with only one left, and then we can break the Abyss Spell. With them out the Giant loses its energy to cast the spell! We still have time and Silva do you know where the last member is?"
Nodding I asked them to follow me as I lead them to where the last fucker is at to end this mess and then deal with Jose after that.
/////
As we rush to our destination Mira began to explain Aria's magic and abilities as Gray cried, "His eyes?!"
She nodded as we listen intently as we all rush our way as she explains in more detail in a serious tone, "That's right… Aria usually keeps his eyes closed. As long as his eyes are closed, he can keep his enormous Magic Power in check. With his Magic <Airspace> is deadly enough to control the airspace within an area."
Nodding in understanding using Mastema to fly near them as Erza points out an easy solution to this brandishing her swords, "It doesn't matter. He could be powerful all he wants but for the safety of the Guild and our friends, I'll be sure to end it before he ever gets the chance! All I have to do is cut his air, down!!"
All nodding in understanding in agreement we all rushed inside till we finally meet the final member of Element 4 Aria gazes at us with his usual spill, "How sorrowful that these young Fairies offer their necks to me on such –"
*WOOSH*
Not giving the chance to speak Erza dashed instantly as Aria evaded the attack with his teleportation away as I used <Observe>.
<Observe>.
[Aria Lv.150 Element 4]
That makes him strong plus his <Airspace> is going to be very annoying to deal with.
But I'll let Erza handle it with her peak strength at full power and by the power of plot armor on our side this would be a cakewalk for her.
It's what's after is going to be a pain in the ass.
