Chapter 2 : Haki?

In the guild hall, everyone except the guild master, Makarov, was taken aback by the appearance of the newcomer.

"Who does he think he is? He's too arrogant to claim he's afraid of killing Macao," murmured one member, his eyebrows furrowed in disbelief.

Macao's face flushed with embarrassment and anger. Being belittled by someone much younger was not something he took lightly.

"Let's settle this in a fight! I'll show you just how wrong you are," Macao declared, his frustration evident.

"Do we really have to resort to violence?" Kyros glanced at Guild Master Makarov for guidance.

Makarov nodded solemnly. "Show them what you're made of, Kyros. Don't let them underestimate you. But remember, keep it controlled. We don't want any casualties."

With a resigned sigh, Kyros agreed. "Very well."

The guild members eagerly gathered, eager to witness the newcomer's abilities that had caught the Guild Master's attention.

"Fine, let's take this outside," Macao challenged, gesturing towards the open space behind the guild.

Kyros shook his head. "No need for that. We can settle this right here."

The tension in the guild hall heightened. Fighting inside the guild premises risked damage to the building itself.

Suddenly, an overwhelming aura enveloped Kyros, radiating a powerful energy that sent tremors through Magnolia Town.

BOOM!

The guild hall shook violently, cracks appearing on the furniture and walls surrounding Kyros.

Gasps echoed throughout the guild as everyone paled in fear.

Thuds reverberated as each member collapsed to the ground, unconscious. Even the townspeople outside, except for Makarov, succumbed to the mysterious force.

Makarov, startled by the sudden chaos, rushed to Kyros's side, his expression a mix of shock and admonishment.

"You reckless boy! I said keep it light! Look what you've done—you've practically demolished the guild building! Are you trying to get us disbanded?!" Makarov scolded, knocking Kyros's head in frustration.

Kyros's expression bore a grievance as he spoke, "I refused to fight, yet you insisted, and I made every effort to show mercy."

Having recently acquired this power, Kyros found himself struggling with its overwhelming force, leading to a lack of precise control.

Makarov, visibly astonished by Kyros's recent display, inquired, "What sort of magic was that just now?" The move had left the entire guild stunned, its power unfathomable.

"It's not magic, per se; it's more akin to harnessing momentum, somewhat resembling mental shock magic," Kyros attempted to clarify, though acknowledging its roots in the power system of 'One Piece.'

Gradually, members of the guild began to regain consciousness, finding themselves and those nearby sprawled on the ground, heads throbbing.

"What in the world happened?"

"Did anyone catch what just went down?"

"I feel like I just blacked out."

The eruption of Kyros's overwhelming dominance had caused everyone to faint, leaving them bewildered.

Macao, nearing full consciousness, addressed Kyros apologetically, "My apologies, I may have overindulged. Let's, uh, continue! I was just..."

Makarov interjected quietly, "Continue? There's nothing more to do; it's all over."

"You mean to say we all fainted due to Kyros's attack?"

"What?!"

The members of Fairy Tail exchanged shocked glances. It dawned on them that they had indeed fainted during Kyros's outburst and had been inadvertently affected by his power.

Kyros, feeling a tad embarrassed, scratched his head and admitted, "Sorry about that; my control isn't the best, and I unintentionally affected everyone."

The incredulous gazes of the guild members widened.

"Not good... It's incredible!"

"Where did the guild master find this little powerhouse?"

"The Guild Master is truly remarkable!"

Upon hearing this praise, Makarov couldn't help but wear a proud smile. His heart swelled with joy knowing that there was such a formidable member in the guild.

As for the encounter with Kyros, it was purely accidental. Their paths crossed on Tenrou Island, the revered sanctuary of the Fairy Tail Guild.

In that moment, a mechanical voice echoed in Kyros's mind.

[Ding! Automatic sign-in successful! ]

[Sign-in location: Fairy Tail Guild]

[Reward: 100 attribute points! ]

Kyros's eyes sparkled with excitement at the announcement. He hadn't anticipated receiving such a substantial reward for simply signing in at the Fairy Tail Guild. With these additional attribute points, he could further enhance his strength.
