Chapter 69: Tower of Heaven (7)

~Rou POV~

*WOOSH*

*Puff*

Letting Gyst use his Telekinesis Magic at me I merely stayed in place as the holes in my body became smoke using Fairy Alchemy: Smoke Body transmuting my body as I eye the other 3 members of his group.

I seem to recall all of these four from the Fairy Tail movie of Fairy Tail: Priestess of the Phoenix as the antagonist of the movie.

From what I recall from my memory… yup.

These guys should be weak compared to their future counterparts but show some promise if Jellal or possibly even Ultear hired them if they were good enough.

Sadly, though they are heavily underestimating me and I'm ashamed of myself for letting my guard down like that. I think I'm getting rusty ever since the years of peace got to me that I'm not as sharp as I used to be.

To think I would miss my reflexes well developed in the two years fighting Wizards. How the times have changed.

Guess I became a bookworm at the end of the day huh?

Perhaps I need to start getting my fighting instincts back again after years of peace-making a softie. But that's for the future me to deal with not the present me since I have a couple of bad kids to take down.

Then again, it's fucking Magic with bullshit abilities but that's an excuse I'm saying right now since I have a clear idea of how to deal with each of their schticks and abilities they have.

From what I can remember from these guys…

Dyst the leader of the team uses Telekinesis for battle and conspired to betray his employer, Cream, and seize the immortality from the revived Phoenix for himself. Could be more worrying if he has more spells since using movie logic won't help when used in reality here.

Chase is a masked man who uses Shadow Magic to pursue his enemies and assassinate them from the shadows. That guy I have to be wary of since I couldn't sense his magic before my instincts kicked in.

Cannon is a burly man who wields Guns Magic to bombard his targets with his arsenal of cannons, both hand-held and remote-controlled, at his disposal. From what I can analyze he seems to be a Holder-type user either they have magic not suitable for combat or don't have magic at all just strong.

Coordinatora a well-endowed woman who uses Requip: The Knight to transform her outfit into various armors with powerful weaponry and Dispel to render her foes bereft of their magical abilities. No magic in this fight with Coordinatora able to Dispel my Magic…

In essence, they set up a means to stop me as I see Dyst frown at this with Chase responding in a displeased tone, "Dyst I thought the Jutsu Shiki will stop him from using Magic what the heck am I seeing here?!!"

Ah…

Gazing my eyes towards the floor… yup.

Runes of the Letter Magic category and nearly well-hidden if the bright purple light didn't give them away seeing small runes written on there. Didn't expect them to learn that type of Magic here.

Jutsu Shiki is a Caster Magic and a form of Letter Magic utilizing Magic Runes. Jutsu Shiki is a form of Letter Magic in which the user is able to create barriers in certain areas by surrounding them with Magic Runes.

Those who step inside these runes will be trapped and forced to obey the rules that the user set up beforehand. These rules range from age or time limits to tasks that must be completed, such as defeating others within the spell's boundaries.

Pretty powerful stuff if it stopped even Makarov from participating in the Fairy Tail Fantasia Arc too. Better keep an eye out for that magic and learn to add Jutsu Shiki into my wide arsenal to my advantage the next chance I get.

And they even prepared something like this in advance definitely something in canon that never occurred. Looks like I have to be extra sure to look out for any changes in the timeline now seeing this.

"Requip: Fire Armor!"

My eyes dart towards the woman wearing armor is red with gold trimming. It consists of a chest plate, styled like a leathery wing, covering the upper chest, dark-colored pauldrons, gauntlets, and large, decorated Faulds. Coordinator's hair is tied into a pair of high ringlets.

While wearing this armor, Coordinator wields a large, jagged red blade, darker on the edges as she dashed towards me with a fire ignited on the Magic Weapon, "Fire Fantasia!"

*Fzzzz*

The fire she slashed at me began to turn bright blue narrowing my eyes and seeing it coming towards me as I feel the heat radiating from it, but I have no worries about it as I called out my name, "You all are so getting an ass whopping! Smoke Alchemy: White Out!"

*Puff*

*Puff*

I shoot out clouds of normal smoke from my arms and use them to engulf the four of them, a few ran off except for Coordinator as she was the one that ran towards me. Meh, at least I take care of one.

As she was too late then making, the smoke dense to trap her inside. This attack can be used to ensnare many people at the same time while suffocating them as captives from inhaling too much smoke till…

*Thud*

Coordinator is effectively knocked out as the other three didn't take kindly taking out one of their group Chase then used his magic against me while throwing poison knives from the scent, I got from them, "Tch. This is going to be bad if we don't injure the damn guy! Take this Shadow Orochi!"

"Ssssss…!!!"

Chase shapes their shadow into multiple snakes to attack and bite me as I smirked at this bringing snake fights, "You call that an Orochi? Tch. I've seen bigger. Here's a better one. Smoke Alchemy: White Ouroboros!!!"

*PUFFF*

"Hisssssss...!!!"

A large smoke engulfed the room as I controlled my body using Enchantments to give me an increase in the concept of 'control' of my body as my smoke turned dense revealing a very large angry Ouroboros snake covering the room and hissing at the Shadow snakes.

*Zzzzz*

"SNIIIIII!!!!"

*POOF*

Engulfing the Shadow Orochi spell and using deconstruction Fairy Alchemy to break it down and transmute his attack into more smoke for my Smoke Ouroboros bear its fangs at Chase's eyes widening, "What the –"

*CHOMP*

*THUD*

Like that, the alchemic construct of smoke ate Chase, and fell out of the smoke body and suffocated with highly dense smoke blocking any pathway of breathing thus knocking himself out to the ground cold.

2 down 3 more to go.

My eyes dart towards Dyst and Cannon now realizing my Smoke Ouroboros spitting out smoke engulfing the room as my eyes dart towards the two but Cannon took out a rifle shooting at me right away.

"Tornado Shot!"

*Bang*

*WOOSH*

As the name states he shot a fucking tornado at me with the intention of blowing away the smoke in the room thinking it would dissipate my construct in any normal circumstance if this were Smoke Magic then this would've been a good guess…

Except it's not when Alchemy is in play.

The reason why it's entirely wrong is that that smoke construct is a part of me. And smoke created by alchemy won't leave ever because it's created by me and won't leave as well as it can't be devoured by element eaters like Dragon Slayers.

Dragon Slayers can't eat something living to replenish their Magic Power with the probable exception being Acnologia those Dragon Slayers can't eat me if I'm in an elementary form.

Just simple science with a hint of magic bullshitery at play.

Cannon's eyes widen in fear as I call out my next attack striking down the ground, "Smoke Alchemy: White Strike!!"

*WOOOSH*

*POOF*

White Strike is when I transform myself into smoke and smashes the ground with my right fist, causing a shockwave and releasing a cloud of smoke in a circle around him that traps enemies like my White Out attack.

*BAM*

*BOOOM*

*Crak*

*Crak*

Cannon soon got worried as the smoke soon rushed towards him instead of being blown away from the tornado, "What! Shit get that away –"

"Smoke Alchemy: White Impact."

*BAM*

*BAM*

*BAM*

*BAM*

What happens next, is to capture Cannon and bashed him around nearby walls causing bodily harm as my smoke enters his lungs causing him to have a hard time thinking as well as diluting his senses of remaining focused.

This feels like the scenario with how Hulk dealt with Loki like in my case being quite literally nearly untouchable because magic phases through me like butter being a Smoke Human thanks to my Alchemy transmuting my body.

Real Logia One Piece level bullshit right now right?

Also having the One Piece wiki in my Super Archive about Smoker's abilities of his Devil Fruit also helps in reality to deal with most enemies not killed. Very much harmed but ultimately won't be killed.

So many play styles to take as my own hehehe…

Turning my eyes to Gyst and Jellal remaining my focus turns to them as I return to my normal form but have my Smoke Ouroboros out waiting for the chance as I destroy the runes of the Jutsu Shiki merely touching the runes using Fairy Alchemy to deconstruct it thus disabling the runes entirely.

Gyst eyes dilated seeing how easy it was dealing with his little magic trembling as he tried to attack me next, "Shit! Shit! Shit!!!! You blued-haired fucker didn't tell me that this man was dangerous without magic?!! What the hell – Ack…!"

*Pew*

"Pleiades."

*Splat*

Before Gyst could do anything, he was suddenly impaled by a ray of light originating from Jellal's hand directing it to Gyst's heart with the shock of betrayal evident in his eyes starting to blank out wording out his dying breath, "Ack… you fucker… you never… intend… t… o… pro… mis… e… de… al…"

Like that, he spat out blood finally coming to his wounds that Jellal personally shot out his own heart like that.

Passed out like a bitch.

*Thud*

Falling down dead my eyes turned towards the man clearly coming to terms with what happened with a snarl on his face, "Grr… to think despite being unable to use Magic you were able to come back after having your magic down. What kind of Mage are you using Magic while being trapped in a Jutsu Shiki!!"

Raising an eyebrow at Jellal I confessed to him with a shrug while holding one of my Maximize Magic Card: Dispel on hand twirling around my fingers, "To be frank Jellal I'm more of an alchemist than a Wizard. I fight more with Alchemy than with Magic, to be honest. Alchemy is a fighting style I'm used to while Magic to me is secondary use."

If his face was worth anything the expression of pure shock was written on his face at my confession of my fighting style being so casual with the man as I hold my Magic Card at him to get rid of the idiot spell, "Now then… after concluding everything. I think it's best to dispel that Possession Magic you have on yourself."

Jellal eyes widen at my claims as I tossed my card at the man activating its effects, "Activate Maximize Magic Card: Dispel!"

*SHIII*

*THUD*

A light filled the room as Jellal got unconscious I next see a spirit figure coming out from Jellal's mouth and ears as my Spider Golem caught all of this on tape as the ghost-like aspiration began to dissipate entirely from my view.

Possession Magic is Black Magic Caster Magic involving the possession of the mind. The user creates a ghost-like apparition that approaches and then seemingly engulfs the victim, in reality entering and forcefully possessing the mind.

The victim retains all memories and knowledge and may benefit from even more knowledge, like how to use certain Magic. However, their mind and personality become warped and corrupted and can make a kind and strong-willed person into one extraordinarily evil.

Real nasty Magic that one.

Something that everyone saw as I smirked seeing Jellal begin to come to again looking genuinely confused, "What… what happened… and who are you…? Wait Erza, Simon, and my friends… what have I done…?"

Smiling at this as my Spider Golem caught everything, I took Jellal's hand and get out Magic Cuffs for the remaining members of Gyst Team, "You probably have a lot of questions, and rightly so. But right now, though we have to explain everything to your friends about what happened. And video evidence will prove you weren't yourself for years…. You will still be tried but at least the Magic Council will listen to your side of the story along with a Memory check to prove your truth."

Jellal looks confused but nodded as he took my hand I helped him up as I began to take everything this Team Gyst had for myself and my Guild members.

Looking over to the Spider Golem at my shoulder I winked giving Mavis her turn to capture the mastermind, "Mavis I hope you're good on your end. Hopefully, we can settle this calmly and swiftly as possible…"

I hope we get the mastermind Ultear before something else happens…

Good grief I need a lollipop.

Preferably nice and sweet.
