Chapter 50

Not knowing what to say or do, Wendy could only remain silent, while Seryu looked at her, with no form of reason on her face. She didn't seem angry or angry. In fact, she was flabbergasted and couldn't take her eyes off Wendy. She had suffered too much shock today for her brain to function properly. Wendy was therefore unable to predict her next actions.

" Is it because of you that Caruma and the children died? " Repeated Seryu.

" Seryu, I ...! "

" Of course it's his fault! " Syura assured, pointing to her! " This girl is none other than a criminal who believed herself clever to believe herself superior to everyone! If she hadn't been involved in my father's business, know that all this would never have happened! "

Also taking advantage of the presence of civilians who watched them from a distance, he then assured.

" You see ? No one can do anything against us! Whether it's Night Raid or the Jaegers! We are invincible! We are the elite of the elite! "

Then staring at Wendy, the man questioned her.

" Do you finally understand who you dared to stand up to, vermin? "

However, he quickly found that Wendy hadn't listened to him. Instead, she stared at Seryu, who did the same.

" Wendy… why? " Asked the latter, feeling that her mind was under attack by hundreds of voices ordering her to kill the child.

" I ... I never thought it would end like this! " Swore Wendy! " I ... I never could have thought! I swear to you that I didn't want that to happen in any case! All I wanted to do was reason with the emperor, nothing more! "

" Reasoning who, poor idiot? " Asked Giry, suddenly putting his foot on his head! " You are nothing more than a brat! You are even more pitiful than the dust stuck to my soles! "

Grinding her teeth, Wendy felt tears run down her face as she whispered.

" Sorry! "

" Hum? " Wondered Giry, ceasing his gesture.

" I'm sorry ! " Repeated Wendy.

Hearing this, Giry immediately laughed.

" Ha ha! Are you sorry? But it's too late for that, poor idiot! But, at least, it proves that you're not going to die an idiot! Ha ha ha! "

" I'm really sorry, Seryu! " Wendy apologized.

" Hein? "

Looking at her, Seryu could only see sadness in Wendy's eyes, while the child

sobbed.

" I didn't want them to die! Yes… Caruma… the children… Niks… I loved them! I ... if they ever died because of me, I could never forgive myself! But please help me! "

" Have you help yourself? " Asked Seryu.

" Yes ! Help me protect the rest of the civilians! " Implored Wendy.

" But are you going to close it, yes? " Asked Syura! " Giry, stop there! "

" With pleasure ! " Giry assured him, lifting his foot in the air! " I'm going to blow her brain! "

But the instant he dropped his foot toward the girl's head, a punch managed to hit him in the head. His nose flattened, he couldn't moan in pain as he took a step back. However, managing to keep his balance, he glared at the person who had just hit him.

" You? How dare you ? "

Despite the loss of her left arm, Seryu was still able to use her second arm, which she had just proved.

" No, but what are you doing silly? " Cosmina asked him.

" Hi hi, are you so stupid that you don't see your real enemy? " Wanted to know Enshin.

Just glaring at them, Seryu ordered.

" Shut up ! Wendy is not my enemy! Wendy is ... Wendy is ...! "

Banging her chest with her valid hand, she cried out.

" Wendy is my friend! "

" Seryu? "

" Your friend ? " Repeated Syura! " No but are you stupid or deaf? I just explained to you that ...! "

" Wendy has nothing to do with it! " Retorted Seryu! " It is you who killed all these people, without the slightest hesitation! You are the murderers! Are you supposed to be a special police? My eye ! You make me want to throw up! "

" A murderer who dares to lecture us! " Sneered Enshin! " Let me doubt your beautiful words! You just killed yourself too! "

Then waving his arms in front of him, he presented the capital while affirming.

" And everyone knows it very well! Everyone hates you for what you did! "

" Exact ! " Syura agreed, walking towards Seryu.

Then, starting to run, he cocked his fist, while declaring.

" That's a shame! But if you want to die like this, it's how you want! "

The punch that swung then was precise, powerful and rapid. However, simply raising his valid hand, Seryu managed to catch it without experiencing the slightest difficulty.

" That … ? "

" Yes, I killed all these people while thinking of doing good! " Confessed Seryu! " And it's only been a few weeks since I realized it! I am nothing but a murderer, who deserves to be executed for what she did! And yet, Wendy continued to be with me and to consider me as her friend! "

Then clenching Syura's fist between her metallic fingers, she let out a groan to the man, while she informed him.

" But compared to the creature that I was, you don't kill people by thinking you are doing the right thing! You just kill for fun! I therefore categorically refuse to let you do! Yes … ! "

Suddenly taking a deep breath, she screamed.

" Me, Seryu, on behalf of the Jaegers, I promise to rid this city of Wild Hunt! "

The face then in rage, Syura managed to grab Seryu's hair and tilted her head to make her hit her knee with force. The nose then pulverized, Seryu was then entitled to a new kick in the belly, which saw her vomiting her guts.

" Are you finished your damn spiel? " Syura asked, hitting her over and over again! You are nothing but vermin! " What can a poor girl like you do when faced with the Prime Minister's son ? I'm listening to you!

His face puffy and bloody, Seryu managed to look up at him, while affirming.

" You can be the son of whomever you want, the fact remains that you are a human like any other, in my eyes! You're a jester! "

Even more enraged, Syura gave her another blow, which made her fly to Wendy.

" Let's call the guards! Syura ordered! I want these two girls to be publicly executed! I want to be tortured! I want to make them scream! I want to hear them imploring me on my knees to kill them quickly! I want … ! I want … ! "

Nevertheless, he quickly noticed that his comrades had stopped listening to him. Instead, everyone was staring at something. So following their gaze, Syura could only widen her eyes, seeing Wendy and Seryu, getting up. Helping each other, passing their arms over their shoulders, the two girls grimaced and moaned with each movement they made to straighten. However, after inflicting a real torture on their bodies, the two girls managed to face the Wild Hunt again.

" We ... will never give up ... never! " They assured, daring to smile! " We are the Jaegers and we will wipe out evil! "

" How? ? " Wanted to know Syura! " How can they still stand up after all this? "

" Go for it ! " Suddenly cried someone.

Having left his hiding place, a young boy had run into the street and ended up screaming.

" These monsters killed my father and my sister! Please take revenge! Down with Wild Hunt! "

" Impertinent! " Growled Syura! " How dare you ? "

" Yes, get rid of it! " Cried a man in his turn.

" We no longer want to live in fear! "

" Go ahead, Jaegers! We are with you! "

Hearing people shouting, other citizens in turn left their hiding places, while others left their homes. Finally, raising their fists in the air, the crowd that had formed then began to cry.

" JAEGERS! JAEGERS! JAEGERS! JAEGERS! JAEGERS! "

Hearing them cheer them on, Wendy said.

" You see ? Even if we die today, at least we will be that the people will fight against you later! "

Knowing nonetheless that neither she nor Seryu had a chance of winning against them, Wendy decided to launch a last attack, for the honor. Then remembering her last fight against Furrick, the girl breathed in the air around her thoroughly.

" ANTI-DRAGON MAGIC! BLACK TORNADE DESTROY ! "

" That … ? " Syura wondered, trying to back away.

Then seeing the tornado rushing straight towards them, Izou and Cosmina deviated in time from its trajectory. However, being too close to dodge it, the others were hit by the attack. Finding himself trapped, Syura had the strange feeling of feeling the air currents around him begin to surround him and grip him like dozens of hands.

Then he had the strange feeling that the wind did not repel him. On the contrary, he felt drawn to Wendy.

" That … ? what is this attack? " Did he want to know by trying to fight.

Then suddenly something lit up in his chest. Then a strange luminous ball left his body, just like Champ, Enshin and Giry. Not even having time to know what it was, Syura suddenly felt very weak. He then understood what was going on.

'' This girl, … ! It sucks our energy! ''

Inspired towards Wendy, the four energetic balls finally touched the mage. However, for a strange reason, they hardly touched the child when the four balls exploded, immediately stopping the attack.

" WENDY! " Appeared Seryu, seeing Wendy, with a bloody face.

" That ? " Cosmina wondered, not understanding what had just happened.

For his part, feeling as weak as Syura, Enshin roared.

" Dirty kid! I'm going to kill you ! "

" It's just an idiot! " Said Champ, with one knee on the ground! " She blew herself up! "

" This attack is redouble! " Retorted Izou, joining them! " It sucks your energy and perhaps even allows its user to absorb this energy! However, she does not seem able to control this attack! "

" Kill Em ! " Simply ordered Syura! " Right away ! "

Not praying, Enshin and Champ balanced their respective attacks on the two girls; Cosmina began to sing and Izou ran towards them while pretending to draw her saber.

" It is the end ! " Remarked Wendy.

" Wendy! " Called Seryu, grabbing her hand! " I regret nothing ! Thank you for everything ! "

" You too, Seryu! "

Preparing therefore to find themselves in the other world, the two girls could only see with surprise their life continuing its course, while other people were their appearance.

Swinging feathers at Champ's attacks, Run managed to stop them by detonating them.

" Grrr, you? " Wondered the clown, looking up at the sky.

Drawing his saber faster than expected, Izou used it to stop Kurome's sword.

" Oh, that's a surprise! The great Kurome in person! I am so happy to see you! In fact, I had such a great desire to measure myself against you and your sister! "

Backing away, Enshin saw each of his sharp air knives disintegrate by hitting the armor of Wave. Grand Chariot was far too strong to break.

" Don't touch my friends! " Wave ordered, trying to punch him.

Jumping in time in time, Enshin began to swear and ended up falling not far from Cosmina. The latter was also in shock, seeing the huge mass of Koro reappear without the slightest scratch, and having used his body to protect the two girls from his attack.

" Him again ? "

" Koro! " Rejoices Seryu.

" The friends ! " Smiles Wendy.

" The Jaegers! " Recognized them Syura.

However, finding his smile, he pretended to be surprised to see them arrive like this.

" Well, well, what is this pleasure worth to me, Jaegers? Don't you have other things to do than investigate us? Like dying in your corner, just like your other companions did? We, at the moment, are fighting the evil of this city! "

Remaining silent, Wave only looked behind him. Seeing thus Wendy and Seryu, he could not help being in rage by seeing the state in which they were.

Clenching his teeth, he could however control himself, while declaring.

" Syura, son of the Prime Minister! "

" Yes ? " Said the latter.

" As a member of the Jaegers, I order the dissolution of Wild Hunt as well as the delivery of all your teigus, without making a fuss! "

Hearing him, Syura and his comrades remained frozen for a few moments. Then, finally, except for Izou, the whole small group laughed.

" Haha! You heard, he wants us to surrender! "

" And we give him our teigus! "

" Sacred Jaeger! It's really just a bunch of clowns! "

" Not but seriously? " Wanted to know Syura, fixing Wave! " Who are you to believe you are superior to the being that I am? You may be elite soldiers, only Esdeath would potentially have the right to give me an order! "

" Very good ! " Sighed Wave! " You leave me no other choice! "

And immediately he went into combat position.

" Run! Kurome! Sorry to get involved in this! "

" No problem ! " Retorted Run, while staring at Champ.

" Pay me just a meal in a good restaurant when it's over! " Kurome asked him.

" Oh ! Great ! Great ! Great ! Great ! " Suddenly rejoices Giry! " Still fighting! Let me kill the guy with the wings! I want to cover myself with his angelic blood! "

" No, I'm the one who looks after the beautiful boys! " Cosmina retorted.

" Personally, I would rape Kurome! " Asserted Enshin, while licking his lips! " I find it more to my taste! "

" Do what you want! " Assured Syura! " Just kill them with the other two! "

But barely did he say his words when a shower of feathers fell on his group. Seeing Run attacking them, Champ himself launched electric spheres, which exploded on contact with the feathers. Then invading the place, smoke quickly made everyone blind. However, wanting to take advantage of the latter, the three Jaegers rushed straight into the cloud in search of their opponents.

Thus, betraying her presence by coughing, Cosmina saw with horror the large mass of Wave melt on her, before knocking down her fist in her belly. Thrown back, she collapsed on her back, with a look showing only pain.

" Hum? " Said Champ, hearing his body fall to the ground.

Suddenly stooping down, he dodged in extremis a new shower of feathers, which almost broke through his head.

" Grrr! Hey, is it me or that damn piaf is targeting me personally? "

" And how should that bother you? " Asked Run.

Hidden by the smoke, he startled Champ, who tried in vain to find him.

" Where are you, motherfucker? "

" You and I have an account to settle! " Assured Run.

" A account to settle? "

" Yes ! Regarding a group of children you killed, a few years ago! You must surely remember! "

Nevertheless, it was at this moment that he heard Champ start to giggle a little.

" Do you want me to remember that? It's impossible, silly! I have killed so many children that it is always difficult for me to remember the number of my victims! For me, they were targets like any other, that's all! By cons, I would not say no to resuscitate them, and then kill them a second time! "

Opening his eyes wide at first, Run finally lets his anger speak. So, flying at full speed towards Champ, he tried to give him a powerful kick in the face. However, perceiving the sound of a wingbeat in time, the clown managed to stoop a second time.

" You are too impulsive! "

Then creating a sphere of fire in his hand, he directed it towards Run.

" Die ! "

Performing a magnificent somersault, Run managed to dodge the attack, which disappeared through the smoke. Then, moments later, the two men could hear a cry of pain from Enshin.

_AHHHHH! Who is the asshole that burned my arm?

_Motherfucker ! roared Champ.

_No bother to insult me right away! retorted Run! I haven't even started!

Continuing to fight, the two men paid little attention to the smoke that disappeared from the place. Rubbing his eyes, Syura could see Cosmina, still on the ground; Field and Run fight against each other; Enshin having a completely charred arm and Kurome dueling against Izou.

" Damn it ! To say that we managed to control the situation! "

Then staring at Wendy and Seryu who also watched the battle, the man roared.

" It's their fault! Giry, kill them, quickly! If they manage to recover their strength, we will be in big trouble! "

" No problem ! " Assured the man, turning to the two girls.

However, instead of seeing them, he could only make out a huge jaw pretending to close in on him. Jumping back in time, he avoided being devoured by Koro.

" Grrr, what do you want with me, the dog ? "

" Koro, Berserk mode! " Seryu ordered! " Quickly ! "

Immediately, gaining mass again, the teigu roared before rushing towards Giry. However, hardly did he take a step when he put a knee on the ground, while seeming to suffer the martyr.

" Hein? " Giry wondered, who hadn't even had time to attack him.

" What is happening to him? " Wanted to know Wedny.

" He already used Berseck mode earlier! " Remembered Seryu! " He must be running out of energy! "

Hearing this, Giry began to smile sadistically, while pointing his own tail towards Koro.

" You want a refreshment my friend? "

Suddenly passing over Koro's body, Wave cocked his fist, before hitting Giry with all his might. Touched at the top of the head, the man felt himself sent against the ground and his face became embedded in the asphalt.

" Giry! " Cried Syura.

" You're next! Wave assured, running towards him.

" Tsss! Dirty sassy! "

Moaning as for him, Enshin tried to forget the loss of his arm and tried to show that he did not suffer in any way. If someone of enemy rank noticed that he was injured, he would quickly be considered an easy target.

"I have to leave quickly!" He found, bypassing the battlefield.

Then walking towards the city, to take refuge there, he was surprised to see two people, half hidden behind a wall, attending the fighting, with the rest of the citizens.

"They? " Enshin wondered, recognizing Kije and Loke.

Immediately, wanting to pass his rage on someone, the man roared.

" All of this is your fault! "

Running then, he surprised everyone, rushing towards Bols' family.

" No, stop! " Wendy begged him, reaching for him.

But, too far to do anything, she made, helplessly, Enshin run towards the mother and her daughter. Paralyzed, as for them, the two girls felt their legs paralyze, while the man brandishes his saber towards them.

" Run away ! " Wave ordered.

" Too late ! " Enshin assured, swinging his saber towards Kije's throat.

However, at the last moment, a huge hand managed to seize his grip, and stopped him in his tracks.

" That … ? " Wondered the man, looking up! " Who are you ? "

Falling as for her, on the buttocks, Kije imitated her, to finally stop trembling. Instead, tears formed in her eyes as she stuttered.

" You ... You ... Are you alive? "

Stopping fighting too, the Jaegers widened their eyes, recognizing the newcomer.

" Impossible, but how? "

Wave sobs disturbed his sight himself, Wave cried.

" BOLS! "

Standing tall and dominating Enshin, the former Jaeger was there and alive. And, despite his mask, it was obvious that anger could be seen on his face, whereas seeing a few seconds of the scene was enough for him to understand what was going on.

" I am absent for a few days and what do I see? A group of killers appeared and attempted to assassinate my family? "

Then managing to free himself from his grip, Enshin cried out.

" No matter who you were, you are nothing in front of us, poor shabby! We are Wild Hunt, the elite group! And U.S … ! "

He didn't even have time to finish his sentence until the end of Rubicante found himself in front of his face. In an instant, he found himself completely cremated and, after shouting for a few seconds, he ended up becoming nothing but a heap of black ashes.

" No one touches my family! " Bols assured, fixing the rest of Wild Hunt.

Seeing that he was losing more and more the situation, Syura found it essential to leave the big game.

" You wanted it! " He assured, while activating his dye! " I will send you to another dimension! SHAM…! "

" FIRE DRAGON'S IRON PUNCH! "

Before even understanding what was going on, a figure fell just above Syura, before a fist smashed against his face. Then feeling his feet take off from the ground, he literally ejected himself against the trunk of a tree, which broke in two without the slightest problem.

" That … ? " The members of Wild Hunt wondered, turning to their chief on the ground.

" Well done, Natsu! " Suddenly congratulated Happy, flying over the stage! " Right in the target ! "

Seeing the man now stand before him, Wave muttered.

" Salamander? "

" Natsu? " Bols wondered, not even noticing that he had followed him so far.

" So you are Wild Hunt, I imagine! " Understood Natsu, staring at Champ and Izou! " The guys who have fun killing people for fun! "

Then, looking one by one at the Jaegers, his eyes fell on Wendy, as well as her injuries.

" Wendy? "

" I ... I'll leave the rest to you, Natsu! " Assured the girl.

Then having no more strength, she felt her eyes close. Then she let her body stop working, and pretended to fall to the ground, if Seryu hadn't held it in time.

" Wendy! " Repeated Natsu.

Suddenly hit by a sphere of ice, the man found himself with his lower body completely frozen.

" Tsss, as if we were going to, in addition to the rest, let a member of Night Raid complicate our business! " Growled Champ! " Wait wisely your turn, we will kill you after executing this kid! "

" You hurt Wendy? " Asked Natsu, looking down.

Then heating his body, he surprised Champ by starting to melt the ice that covered his legs.

" W… What? "

" You will pay me! "

Igniting his body, he quickly melted everything around him. Feeling a wind of heat whipping his face, Wave preferred to back away from him.

"Wow, what a power ! "

Jumping, too, back, Izou made several leaps until he could find himself on the roof of a house.

"Going headlong is now impossible!" He remarked, starting to lose confidence in their victory! " It happens more and more! "

" Something asshole! " Suddenly roared Giry, getting up! " Where's that damn Wave? I'm going to atomize it! "

I also noted, Cosmina finally realized the presence of Natsu.

" Hey, but ... he's a Night Raid guy! "

" Hein? " Said Giry! " But what's the matter here? "

" That's exactly the question I was going to ask! " Roared a voice.

Flying over the scene, a huge ray appeared in the sky, with the members of Night Raid on its back.

" Natsu, be sure that we will have a new discussion together! " Najenda assured him.

" Night Raid? " Wave wondered.

" No but I hallucinate? " Wanted to know Giry! " What are they doing here? "

" Sister! " Murmured Kurome, seeing Akame.

Finding a familiar face, Gajeel suddenly dropped from the line and was the first to join the fight.

" IRON DRAGON'S CLUB! "

Turning his arm into a metal pillar, he then stretched it out and led it towards Run. However, the latter did not even need to dodge it so that the attack bypasses him in order to strike the face of Champ, who was about to strike him in the back. Seeing the clown get thrown back, Run was stunned.

" Hey, the bird ! " Called him Gajeel, crashing near him! " We both still have an account to settle! However, it turns out that today we have the same opponent! Therefore, you have no interest in dying during this battle! I'll kick your mouth after! "

" What? "

" Something asshole! " Roared Champ, getting up.

However, he suddenly lost all desire for revenge, seeing Run and Gajeel face him.

" I suggest you do it quickly! " Proposed Gajeel! " The first one who catches it can kill it! And then we will fight against each other! "

" Leave it down, I don't need you! " Retorted Run! " Let me kill this guy! "

" Night Raid! " Cosmina roared, bringing her microphone to her mouth! " You want good music, you're going to have it! "

Preparing to sing, however, she was forced to back away as soon as a shot came towards her. Jumping back, she was then thrown to the side, when the shot exploded when touching the ground.

" Hey, missed! " Sorry Mine.

" Akame, Leone, Tatsumi! Forward! " Najenda ordered them! " Mine, you keep shooting! Lubbock, prepare your sons and block the slightest attack that would be aimed at us! Chelsea, you infiltrate the enemy and you try to kill one by surprise! "

" OK ! " Assured the six warriors.

Jumping thus, without hesitation, Leone and Tatsumi were followed by Akame, who had to be helped by Lily.

" Where do you want me to ask you? " Asked the Exceed.

First looking at Kurome who was still staring at her, Akame had to make an effort to prevent their old quarrel from taking over.

" Over there ! " She said, pointing to Izou.

" It works ! "

" Hum? " Said the man, looking up at them! " Oh, Akame in person! What a bargain! "

However, he lost his smile, seeing Lily take her warlike form. Then grabbing Akame with one hand, he cocked his arm, before throwing it with all his might, towards the man. So, firing like a cannonball, Akame then took out his sword and smashed it against Izou's saber.

Having just had the reflex to protect himself, the samurai nevertheless felt himself retreat under the power of the impact.

" Well, I must say that it is a sensational entry! "

" Shut up and fight! "

" What is happening? " Wanted to know Wave, looking around to see Night Raid coming to fight Wild Hunt.

Then feeling something touch his arm, he suddenly uttered a cry of pain, while a liquid had managed to destroy his armor at this precise place.

" Tsss! You ruined all my pleasure! " Remarked Giry! " So I will take my time to make you suffer! "

" In your dreams ! "

Running towards him, Leone quickly found himself in front of his imposing body.

" That … ? "

Before she could say more, Leone gave her a powerful palm kick on the chin, which made her jaws click. Then she went on with a devastating punch that fell on the stomach of the man.

Giry could consider himself happy to have very thick muscles, because this kind of punch would have been enough to kill a normally constituted man.

" You, kind of ...!

A kick then threw him on the ground, while Leone sneered.

" Night Raid will never be dominated by a bunch of loosers like you! "

" I've got you ! " Wave said suddenly, grabbing her arm.

" Hum? " Said Leone, turning to him! " What are you doing ? "

" As a member of Night Raid, I will stop you on the spot! Surrender without resisting! "

Listening to her, Leone suddenly laughs out loud.

" Ha ha ha! What are you funny! You really remind me of Tatsumi! "

" Do I take it for a compliment, or what? " Wanted to know the latter, not far from her.

" Stop making fun of me! " Wave ordered him! " We are enemies and ...! "

Being silenced by a punch from the blonde, who also threw him to the ground, he began to spit saliva, while Leone said in a cold voice.

" Very sweet my dear! If I wanted your death, I would have let this big imbalance kill you, before taking care of his case! For the moment, we are not the enemy! "

" Grrr! What are you talking about ? " Wave got angry.

Then getting up, he went into combat position, while asserting.

" I am a member of the Jaegers! My goal is to ensure peace within the empire! It is therefore my duty to stop you without delay! "

" If you annoy me, you will see me obliged to kill you! " Remarked Leone.

" I am not afraid to play with death! "

" Okay, in this case…! " Began Leone.

" Leone, no! " Suddenly stopped Tatsumi.

" Hum? "

" Do not kill him! " He implored, watching Wave! " He is not a bad person! He's like Bols! "

" That … ? Tatsumi? " Wave wondered.

" Hell, but when will you finally open your eyes? This empire is sinking into chaos, and you know it very well! So why are you so anxious to get in the way of us! Are you a moron ? "

" Grrr! Shut up, I have no lesson to learn from you! I know perfectly well that nothing is holy in this empire! However, this is only a bad time! By devoting our efforts to it, we can bring peace back here! "

" The peace ? But are you blind or what? " Tatsumi asked, pointing to Wild Hunt! " Do you really hope to bring peace to this country while collaborating with them? The Prime Minister sent them specially killed people to come and fight them! Do you find it normal to do that? "

" This would never have happened if Night Raid would not have appeared! "

" Night Raid would never have appeared if corruption was not omnipresent, you moron! Just like you, we defend justice, on our side! And if you still haven't seen it, we've only gotten rid of all the big rot in this city! "

" Oh yeah ? By killing them? Well done, the example! "

" Because you never killed any of your opponents? We are aware of all your activities since the creation of your group! And I'm not even talking to you about what Esdeath had done just before that! "

Grinding his teeth, Wave could only think that he was entirely right. However, deep down, he hoped he was wrong. Yes, he really hoped to be on the right side and bring peace to the empire.

" Here! " He roared, shaking his head! " I don't want to hear you anymore! You're just a traitor, Tatsumi! A dirty traitor! "

Then running towards him, he ordered him.

" See you on the spot, Night Raid! "

" Wave, no! "

Seeing him do so, Bols suddenly saw fit to react. Then seeing Wave come to a stop, his comrade affirmed.

" Wave, don't be reckless! In truth, these guys are like us! "

" How do we like that? It's impossible ! You don't remember? They are our enemies! "

" They are not as described! " Retorted Bols! " The proof, I'm alive! They didn't kill me! They just made me a prisoner of war! And, since all this time, I have not been tortured in any way as Esdeath would have done with a prisoner! In addition, and I knew it from the start, it is the Empire itself which is the cause of evil! "

" What? But what are you talking about? "

" This seems stretched down! " Lubbock noticed as he tried to follow their conversation.

" Whatever! " Retorted Najenda, while seeing the others fighting Wild Hunt! " Let's kill Wild Hunt! If possible take their teigus and leave quickly! If the Jaegers decide to remain inactive, let's take advantage! "

As for looking for a target, Mine simply ends up seeing an old acquaintance.

" She ? " She mumbled, recognizing Seryu.

Immediately thinking of Scheele and the psychotic way in which Seryu had behaved in order to kill her, Mine immediately prepared to put her in the game.

"For the empire, it's better to see yourself dead! "

However, when shooting, she was suddenly surprised by a gesture from the girl. Despite her injuries, Seryu was simply moving Wendy to a hiding place so that she would be safe from the slightest attack.

" What is she doing ? " She wondered.

Nevertheless, eventually shaking her face, she put the girl back in play and was about to shoot.

"Scheele, I will avenge you!"

" Mine, stop! "

Once again surprised, the sniper looked at Najenda, who was however turned back to her.

" What? "

" I know how you feel about this girl! However, just once, I would ask you to drop it! Mine if you shoot now, on one of theirs, then the Jaegers will also fight against us! Now is certainly not the time to have two opponents to fight, when we have no real plan! "

" Yes, but … ! " Began Mine, while continuing to stare at Seryu.

"No, I have to kill her! I have to kill her! I have to kill her! "

Far from suspecting the danger that hung over her, Seryu continued to carry Wendy to a nearby house to hide her. However, the task was hard as she had only one arm left and one of her legs forced her to limp.

In any case, seeing her too, Cosmina was the one who landed right in front of her.

" Hello, Justice's girl! How is it going ? "

Stopping in his task, Seryu could only glare at her, for lack of being able to do better.

" Ha ha ha, what do you look pathetic, my poor! You see, if you had accepted our generous offer, all this would never have happened! "

'' Shut up, I didn't ask you for anything, dirty slut of service! "

" Very good ! " Said Cosmina, losing her smile! "Me who wanted to spare a few more moments to speak with you! You asked for it ! "

Then, with a sweet smile, she carried her microphone in the air, before starting to sing. Immediately, moving his ears, Seryu could only cry out when he felt the sound waves destroy his whole body.

" You're gonna bite! Come on, die! Die! Create…! "

Then feeling a huge figure approach her from behind, Cosmina could only turn around to see a huge jaw in front of her face.

" That … ? "

Gulped down in one bite, the singer disappeared into Koro's mouth. Having no more energy to maintain its Berseck mode, the teigu had simply regained its previous form, less costly in energy, and then had to charge Cosmina before swallowing it. At least he hoped to recover energy from it.

Seeing his opponent being swallowed, Seryu could only breathe a sigh of relief, before dropping to the ground.

" Good boy ! " She assured.

Preparing to run towards her to help him, the wolf suddenly felt his body swell like the belly of a frog.

" Hum? " Said Seryu, seeing him triple in volume! " But that … ? "

Trying to resist, the dog however suddenly exploded, creating a huge explosion of blood. Watered from all sides, Seryu's eyes widened, while staring at the person standing in front of her.

" Stupid dog ! " Cosmina roars, her body covered in blood and drool! " Eurk, this is disgusting! "

" Koro…? What … ? "

" Something idiot! Did you really think your smart bag would eat me? As soon as I found myself in her mouth, I started to sing thoroughly and I made her stomach swell thanks to the sound waves! "

Then perceiving a strange noise, the singer saw the vital nucleus of Koro falling in front of Seryu.

" Oh ? If I understand correctly, this stupid pooch is still alive! "

Seeing her take a step towards the core of his teigu, Seryu hastened to crawl on the ground, before covering him with his arms.

" No, you will not destroy it! "

" Clearance! " Cosmina ordered, starting to trample on her! " Get out right away! "

" No way ! You will not kill Koro! "

" Do not worry, he will not be the only one! I intend to kill you too as well as your girlfriend right behind you! I'm going to kill you all! "

And to prove it, she suddenly took malicious pleasure in stepping on Seryu's head before continuing on her way, trampling her back. Walking thus, Cosmina quickly found herself in front of Wendy, who still remained unconscious.

" A pretty little face! " Giggled Cosmina, watching her! " It makes me want to massacre her so much! "

" No, don't come near her! "

Just smiling sadly Cosmina then breathed a little air, to prepare a new song.

" And now, ladies and gentlemen, here is the next song from the great and unique: Cosmi…! "

Stopping her short, a powerful shot pulverized her arm; the shoulder; as well as the entire right side of his body. The only survivor of this attack, Cosmina's microphone fell at his feet, while the latter were trembling in amazement.

" What … ? What … ? "

Then collapsing, she collapsed on the floor, under Seryu's wide eyes.

" But how … ? "

" Nice shot, Mine! " Applauds Lubbock! " You saved the enemy! "

" Here! " Roared the sniper, looking at Seryu with hatred! " I only did that to save Wendy, nothing more! "

" And two! " Simply whispered Najenda.

Remaining motionless watching the battles, Natsu finally turned around, seeing someone walking towards him, his face bloody.

" You, dirty little tadpole! "

" Oh, the Prime Minister's son! " Natsu remembered, staring at Syura! " What's your first name already? Dora or something like that? Oh, and then it doesn't matter! "

" Without importance? Dirty sassy! " Roared Syura, then using his teigu! " You are going to die here and now! "

" Natsu, let's go! " Advised Happy! " His power has no effect as long as we stay in motion! "

" Leave, I have a better plan! " Assured his friend.

" A better plan? "

" Let's go ! "Announced Natsu, rushing straight towards Syura! " FIRE DRAGON'S…! "

" Poor moron! You run straight into the mouth of the wolf! SHAMBHALA! "

" IRON FIST! "

Smashing his fist against that of Syura, at the exact place where his teigu was, Natsu managed to strike him the instant a circle formed at his feet.

" Poor crazy! What did you think you could do? You will find yourself in another dimension for eternity! "

However, his smile disappeared when a crack sound was heard. Throwing a frightened look at his face, he could discern a crack there.

"Impossible ! "

" It's you who will disappear forever! " Yelled Natsu, increasing the intensity of his flames.

Immediately, a powerful explosion took place. Being engulfed by a cloud of smoke, the two opponents disappeared from everyone's eyes for a few moments. However, whether it was Night Raid, Jaegers or Wild Hunt, everyone stopped their fight to fix that of the two men and find out who was victorious.

And as soon as the smoke fell, everyone could see Syura's body still standing. However, his gaze showed only fear, as he stared at his dick. The latter, still boiling, had almost melted. Natsu had managed to destroy Shambhala's power forever.

" What … ? " How is it possible ? My teigu!

Coming out, in turn, from the cloud of smoke Natsu was facing her again, showing that he had managed to destroy the weapon in time, before she sent it to another dimension.

" How ? Who are you ? Who are you, monster?

" Me ? I'm just a Fairy Tail mage! "

" Fa… Fairy Tail? "

" Prepare to undergo your sentence for all your actions! FIRE DRAGON'S ROAR! "

Seeing the huge pillar of fire sink on him, while unable to teleport, Syura could only cry out in fear.

" NOOOOON! "

Then suddenly, a miracle occurs for him. Suddenly falling from the sky, despite the fact that there was not the slightest trace of a cloud, lightning crashed right in front of Syura and managed to counter the power of Natsu's attack.

" What … ? " Said the latter.

" It's been a while ! Given this attack, I imagine it was you who had committed the imprudence to attack the palace the other time! " Noticed a rogue voice.

" Him ? " Growled Najenda.

Recognizing his scent, before he even saw it, Natsu muttered.

" The general of lightning! "

" Night Raid! " Said Budo! " I'll stop you there! "
