Kanji's POV

"Grr." I threw a door open "Where is that bitch?!"

Irene had warped the shape of the whole damn continent and now I was in what's left of Crocus, storming into the castle while following the trail of her magic power. As I walked down the halls I saw soldiers downed with injuries or worse.

"It may have been my first attempt at using that magic but I'll say the results were successful." Irene noted taking a seat on the throne "At the very least his majesty should be at Fairy Tail's doorstep and Acnologia is likely floating in the ocean but even I don't know the truth since I tried sending you to Hargeon but that didn't quite work out."

"Why someplace so specific?" I glared.

"Just a little something special." She smirked.

"A pain in my ass." I said pulling my arm back "Lightning Dragon's Heavenward Halberd."

"HMPH!" Irene swept her staff as I threw the bolt and turned in around, throwing it back at me, fortunately I was able to absorb it without an issue.

"HRRA!" I flashed behind her and held my arm up "Thunder Giant's Crushing Fist!"

"Shield of Air!"

Irene moved her staff and the air above her solidified and prevented my punch from landing.

"You're so annoying." I growled.

"Well the feeling's mutual." She said "You remind me of my ex-husband."

"Oh was he as handsome as me." I smirked.

"I despise him." She blasted me back and started looking to attack the Princess and the King.

"HMMMAA!" I slammed my hands down "Earth Magic: Rising Earth Wall!"

Her magic was blocked off by my wave as molding concrete.

"Princess Hisui." I looked back "You have to leave it's too dangerous, leave this annoying woman to me."

"You're such a pain." Irene sighed "But to think you knew Earth Magic too."

"The Master of Fairy Tail can't be limited to just one magic." I told her "Fire, Water, Earth, Light, Dark, I spent time reading them all, lightning is still my specialty but I can dabble in some others, they rarely prove useful except for now when I need them.

I let lighting leak off me my eye scar glowing bright "There's no way I'd leave Erza and Elise!"

"GRR!" Irene growled and flashed her eyes "Is that so…well this certainly is getting more and more interesting."

"Don't take you eyes of me." I flashed in "Thunder Giant Slammer!"

I hit her with a side punch from the Thunder Giant and sent the witch flying a mile, I jolted through the air and quickly caught up with her.

"Lightning Dragon Jaw!"

I slammed Irene down, my fist digging into her abdomen as lighting ripped apart the ground around us.

"GAH!" she coughed "My, you are strong."

"Without Acnologia here I can devote my strength to you alone!" I growled.

"Lady Irene!"

Two girls attempted to interfere, one in black and one in white.

"Shredding Claws!" Scruff slid by and tackled the girl in black.

"HMPH!" Mira flew down and punched the other girl.

"Take care of them." I said staring at Irene.

"Yes Sir!"

"No problem." Mira smirked.

"When your done go to the guild." I said "Master Mavis is waiting for us."

"RAAHH!" I let out a roar at Irene and flashed in to strike her "LET'S GO!"

"Do you really think you can stand on par with me." She smirked.

"I'd better be able to." I glared "Or I'd make for a shitty master."

"How adorable, so naïve." She laughed "As much as I'd love to show you just how wrong you are I have things to do, we'll have to pick this up some other time."

"Oh, no you don't!" I slammed my Giant's arm down, when I lifted it up all that was left was a huge crater, clearly, she had just teleported to avoid it.

"Damn." I hissed darting across the sky "The guild, I'm sure I'll find here there."

I don't have time to waste, Irene is already strong but those other eleven will gather with her…
