CHAPTER FORTY-ONE: WIZARD SAINT JURA

As the battle continues, Midnight collapses onto the ground, seemingly defeated. Refusing to lose and afraid that his father will abandon him, he runs off. Using his Heaven's Eye, Hoteye is able to see through anything, pinpointing Midnight's location. Midnight desparately tries to run, but Hoteye manages to attack him with his Liquid Ground. The attack hits and Midnight is defeated.

"There they are!" Jura and Lucy cried out. They see Brain dragging Natsu by his scarf.

"Natsu!" Lucy cried out. Natsu turns to them, hopeless to do anything. "What happened?"

"It's 'cause of the transportation..." Natsu groaned.

"Lucy... and the other guy..." Aira groaned as well, happy to see them.

"It's Jura." He sweat dropped.

"Everyone..." Cain yelled.

"Cat-dono, you are also unharmed?" Jura asked.

"Cat-dono?" Lucy repeated.

"Save Natsu... He's being taken away..." Happy begged.

"Half of the Six Generals are finished. Their stars have fallen." Brain stated. "Starting now, I will create a new set of Generals. Including this one."

"I figured... this would happen eventually..." Aira said. "Finally getting scouted by a Dark Guild... huh?"

"Natsu isn't gonna do what you say!" Lucy informed.

"Nirvana will soak this boy's heart in darkness, and he will become nothing but my loyal servant." Brain said.

"Hell no, I won't!" Natsu bites Brain's hand.

"You still have strength even though you're sick?!" Brain picks him up and slams his body onto the ground. Natsu stops struggling and gives up.

"He does not seem so well." Jura commented.

"He gets... extreme motion sickness..." Aira explained.

"Hurry up... and beat... this guy... Stop... this thing..." Natsu weakly said.

"I'm not... doin' it for you... But sure." Aira gets back up, walking over towards Lucy.

"Yeah!" Lucy agreed.

"Stop? Nirvana? Not even possible." Brain said. Natsu continues to move. "This city will shortly reach its first destination. We will arrive at Cait Shelter."

"That's Wendy and Carla's guild!" Happy stated. "But why?" Brain smirks at them.

"Tell us your purpose. Why do you aim for Wendy-dono's guild?" Jura questioned.

"This ultra-inversion magic can change a guild of light into one of darkness in an instant." Brain responded. "I can't wait. I suspect you'll see true hell!"

"We can't let this guy off!" Lucy said.

"This bastard is gettin' to me!" Aira stated. Jura walks behind Aira, scaring him a bit.

"Did you not hear me? Tell us your purpose!" Jura repeated, enraged.

Brain laughs out loud. "I have no words for pitiful weaklings like you! I will become the judge ruling over light and darkness! Bow down before me!"

"This man needs to be dealt with." Jura walked past them. "It seems like there is no talking with him."

"Begone, worms!" Brain uses his staff to use Magic. Jura points his fingers to Brain and the ground around him crumbles and Brain is blown away. "W-What is this magic power?!"

"Stand. I will not let you rest until you say why you are targeting Cait Shelter." Jura ordered.

"Wait, could this old guy..." Aira mumbled.

"...be really crazy powerful?!" Lucy finished. Nirvana continues to move further and further to its' destination.

"This is someone with the title of Wizard Saint, just like our master." Happy informed. Natsu is still hurling from his motion sickness.

"I see... You surprised me for a moment there. I suppose the distinction of being one of the Wizard Saints is not just for show." Brain stood back up.

"There are many other guilds closer than Cait Shelter. There must be some reason why you head their specifically." Jura said.

Brain raises his staff. "There is no need for those that will shortly be dead to know! Dark Rondo!" He sends thick tendrils of Darkness Magic towards Jura.

"Iron Rock Wall!" Jura defends himself against the attack.

"Whoa! That's amazing! And actually kind of scary..." Lucy commented as they stared in amazement at Jura's power.

"Do you understand how futile this battle is now? Tell me the reason you aim for Cait Shelter." Jura repeated.

"And what will you do if you know?!" Brain casts Dark Rondo again once more, but Jura defends himself using Iron Rock Wall again.

"I said it was futile!" Jura said.

"Oh, is that so?" Brain suddenly appeared behind him. "Dark Capriccio!" Jura bends the rocks from his previous attack to defend against it.

"It's futile." Jura repeated once more.

"Dark Capriccio is a piercing magic. It will cut right through those damn rocks!" Brain's spell smashes through Jura's defensive rock. Jura quickly dodges.

"The Iron Rock Wall won't work against that!" Lucy exclaimed.

"He's got a way to pierce through, but being able to dodge it is impressive, too!" Aira added on.

"Iron Rock Wall!" Jura defends himself again.

"The same thing again?" Brain laughed. "Perhaps that's what is futile!" His spell pierces through most of the rocks easily. "My Dark Capriccio will eventually turn you to dust!"

"That would be good if it were true." Jura stated as he manipulated his defensive rocks to bend and redirect Brain's magic.

"I will finish this. And in a big way!" Brain raised his staff. "Dark Capriccio Scream!"

"Iron Rock Wall: Continuous Formation!" Jura created multiple walls of rocks forming one after the other. Brain's spell pierces through the walls.

"Jura, run!" Lucy called out. After the spell pierces through the walls, Jura quickly moves the flying pieces of rocks to smash into the surprised Brain, redirecting the spell. Large fragments of rocks gather around Brain.

"He's trapped in rocks." Lucy pointed out.

"Supreme King Rock Crush!" Jura casted one last spell as the rocks crushed against Brain inside.

"Even while withstanding such fierce attacks, he noticed he could use the shattering pieces of rocks!" Happy said.

"Hell yeah! That guy's the boss of Oracion Seis, right?" Aira questioned.

"We won!" Lucy cheered in excitement.

Brain falls down, defeated. "Now... Tell me the reason you are aiming for Wendy-dono's guild." Jura demanded.

"Wait, shouldn't we just stop it?" Lucy asked.

"Do it for me, please..." Natsu begged.

"I cannot believe that I... was... defeated..." Brain stated. "Midnight... I leave the rest to you. The Six Generals will never be defeated. When the six prayers vanish, he will..." A mark on his face disappears as he passes out without explaining their motives.

"He?" Jura repeated.

"And hey, didn't one of those symbols on his face just disappear?" Aira questioned.

"Please don't freak me out like that. I'm gonna have nightmares about this now!" Lucy complained.

"Everyone!" A voice called out. They looked up to see Wendy and Carla running towards them.

"I figured that all that ruckus was you people." Carla stated.

"Carla!" Happy cried out, glad to see that she was all right.

"This city... I think it might be heading toward our guild!" Wendy exclaimed.

"Seems like it. But don't worry now." Aira reassured. Wendy's surprised to see that Brain was defeated. "I defeated the snake bastard over there." He added.

"It's probably Brain here that was manipulating Nirvana. So since we defeated him, the city should stop, right?" Lucy questioned.

"I don't like this. In the end, we never found out why he was heading for Cait Shelter." Carla pointed out.

"Maybe there wasn't any particular reason for it." Aira guessed.

"When the six prayers vanish, he will..." Brain's words repeated in Jura's mind. "There is still some things left unsolved, but it is over now."

"No, it ain't!" Natsu denied. "Hurry up and stop this thing!"

"Natsu-san! Is he okay?" Wendy asked. They all shake their heads in disagreement.

However, Midnight reveals that their entire battle was just an illusion and attacks Hoteye. Hoteye, seeing Midnight's body, realizes he had not been able to injure him. Midnight then tells him that he is the strongest Mage and has surpassed Brain. Hoteye collapses, releasing his prayer to see his brother's face one more time.

Due to Hoteye's defeat, Brain's face loses another one of its lines. Realizing this, Brain hopes that Midnight is not to be defeated.

The group decides to head to King's Summit, where Brain claimed he controlled Nirvana.

"What the hell?" Aira muttered.

"What in the world...?" Lucy looked around the place.

"There's nothing that looks like controls at all!" Aira pointed out.

"Then, how can we stop it?" Lucy questioned.

"Damn it! I thought it would stop if we defeated Brain..." Aira mumbled.

"We were naive! Now we have no idea how to stop it!" Lucy said.

Wendy sits next to the sick Natsu. "What should I do?"

"Natsu can't handle transportation." Happy responded.

"So pitiful!" Carla exclaimed.

"I'm gonna hurl..." Natsu groaned.

"Motion sickness?" Wendy asked.

"Aye!" Happy answered.

"In that case... Maybe a spell to cure his sense of equilibrium will work." Wendy places her hand on Natsu's head and uses her Magic to cure him. "Troia."

Natsu snaps back to reality, feeling completely normal. "I'm baaack!" He jumped around. "Fine! Totally fine!"

"Thank goodness. I'm glad it worked." Wendy said.

"You rock, Wendy! Please teach me that magic!" Natsu smiled at her.

"It's Sky Magic... That's impossible." Wendy responded.

"This doesn't feel like transportation at all!" Natsu shakes Lucy. "Okay! Lucy, summon a boat or train Spirit!"

"I don't have one like that! And anyway, this isn't the time! Get with the picture, would ya?!" Lucy yelled.

"We don't know how to spot it. As you can see, there's nothing here." Aira said.

"But Hoteye... I mean, Richard, said that this was the place it was controlled from." Lucy pointed out.

"I do not believe that Richard-dono would lie." Jura said.

"Besides having it stopped or not, hasn't anyone noticed something even peculiar?" Carla asked. "There's no controls, and no one here in the King's Summit. Brain has been defeated. So why is it still moving?"

"Could it be operating on auto-pilot?" Aira guessed. "Nirvana has already been set to fire!"

Wendy silently cried to herself. "Our... guild..."

"Don't worry. Your guild ain't going anywhere. Let me do you this favor. I'll stop it, no matter what." Natsu reassured her.

Back at Cait Shelter, a member of the guild rushes in screaming that Nirvana is heading their way. At first, the Guild Master, Roubaul doesn't take him seriously. However, he soon realizes that the man wasn't kidding. Another member of the guild asks if Nirvana attacking them is fate or coincidence and suggests that they evacuate. However, Master Roubaul tells them that even as they speak, there are people out there fighting to stop Nirvana, and to believe in them. He ends his disclosure by deciding that Nirvana attacking the Guild isn't fate, and that, maybe it's time for them to "pay for their crimes".

"Stop it? But we don't know how to stop it!" Happy informed.

"Like, breaking it?" Natsu questioned.

"Yup, figured you'd think like that." Lucy sweat dropped.

"How do you plan on breaking something this huge?" Aira asked.

"It would be faster to ask Brain." Jura pointed out.

"Will he tell us just like that, I wonder?" Carla wondered out loud.

"Maybe Jellal would know..." Wendy muttered.

"Did you say something?" Lucy questioned.

"Is something the matter?" Aira added on.

"No, it's nothing." Wendy answered. "I think I might be on to something I want to check it out." She runs off to find him.

"Wendy, wait!" Carla flies after her.

"Hey!" Aira called out.

"What's with her?" Lucy wondered.

"Everyone, can you hear me?" A voice communicated with them. "It's me, Hoteye."

"Who is it?!" Natsu questioned.

"It is Richard-dono! You are unharmed?!" Jura asked.

"Unfortunately, I am injured. I was no match for Midnight, as I feared." Hoteye responded. "Everyone, please work together to defeat Midnight! If you defeat him, Nirvana's supply of magical power will be cut off, and the city should come to a halt."

"Who is it?" Natsu asked once more in confusion.

"So, it moves using Body Link magic." Aira stated.

"He is directly below the King's Summit. Be careful. He is very, very powerful!" Hoteye warned.

"Richard-dono..." Jura mumbled.

"Directly below us?" Lucy pointed to the ground.

"Okay! I can see the light at the end of the tunnel!" Aira said.

"Powerful, huh? I'm getting fired up!" Natsu exclaimed in excitement.

"Natsu... It's to stop this thing, remember?" Happy sweat dropped as he reminded Natsu.

"Right! Let's go!" Natsu agreed.

"Of the six prayers, only one is left. I believe in everyone! You will surely win, and be able to stop Nirvana! Please..." However, it turns out that it was not Hoteye who communicated with the group, but Brain, who was collapsed somewhere.

"Richard-dono!" Jura called out.

"You won't get away with this... You'll pay..." Brain smiles, thinking he has killed Natsu and the group, and drifts off into unconsciousness.

The group starts to exit the tower they were in. They run downstairs, but they are faced with a door. Natsu kicks and jumps on it, trying to break it open. "Show yourself, you drowsy bastard!" Natsu pries it open as a bright light shines at them.

"It's a trap!" Jura warned. They all get caught in a massive explosion.

Meanwhile, Jellal and Erza, somewhere else on Nirvana, hear the explosion. Midnight suddenly appears behind them, stating that "Father" can be so cruel sometimes, stealing away all his fun. He adds that the two of them are the only remaining prey and that he hopes they don't bore him. Jellal tells Erza to stand back and faces Midnight.

"Damn it... That hurt." Natsu groaned.

"Is everyone alive?" Aira asked.

"Aye..." Happy replied.

"Seems so..." Cain added.

"What happened? We were caught up in that giant explosion and..." Lucy attempts to get up but she hits her head on something.

"We're buried?" Aira questioned.

"Wait, this is..." Lucy recognizes the type of Magic.

Natsu bursts through the rocks. He sees Jura casted a massive version of his Iron Rock Wall to protect them, letting himself take the brunt of the blow. "Stay well, young ones... I am glad you're safe." Jura falls with the group begging not to die on them.

"Damn it all!" Natsu screamed.

Wendy and Carla are flying in the air and suspect Nirvana is actually heading towards their guild. Carla cannot fly much further so they search for Jellal on foot. Carla tells Wendy that she has a good sense of smell, but Wendy states that his smell is different.

Erza and Jellal see the explosion and wonder what it was. However, before they could investigate, they are stopped by Midnight, who complains that it was cruel of Brain to take away his fun by killing Natsu and the others. He states that Erza and Jellal are the last of his prey and engages them in battle. Jellal moves to strike him first, asking Erza to stand back. But Jellal turns out to be no match for Midnight and is easily beaten to the ground.

"What'll we do? He's hurt bad!" Lucy stated.

"Don't die on us, old man!" Aira said.

"It was a trap..." Happy stated the obvious. Natsu clenched his fist and grits his teeth in enrage.

"What a joke..." A voice said. "Brain used up all the rest of his power and could only get rid of one of you."

"Who is it?!" Aira shouted.

"Up there!" Cain pointed out.

"Pitiful... He's a disgrace to the Six Generals." Brain's staff spoke. "Well, as long as Midnight is here, we haven't been defeated." He flies closer to the group. "Perhaps I will clean up the rest of you fools."

"The... The staff is talking!" Happy shrieked.

"You and Cain talk too, even though you're cats." Lucy commented.

Brain's staff slowly flies up in the air as he laughs out loud. "That's the staff that Brain had." Aira said.

"What's going on?!" Lucy questioned in surprise.

The staff continues to laugh until Natsu grabs him and violently dashes the staff on the ground. "Hey-hey-hey-hey-hey-hey-hey-hey-hey-hey-hey-hey-now!"

"Wait, we don't know what it is!" Lucy shouted.

"Stop this big city, you rotted stick!" Natsu ordered.

"R-Rotted stick?! How rude! Stick I'll accept, but what do you mean rotted, huh?!" The staff complained, yelling at Natsu. "I am the seventh member of Oracion Seis. I have awakened from my slumber to defeat..."

"I said stop this city!" Natsu grabs him once again, slamming it on the ground.

"Huh? Oracion Seis has 6 members." Lucy said.

"Professor Happy's Fairy Tail Lectures!" Happy wears a suit while standing on a table in front of a chalkboard. "That's right! There are six members, and thus "Six Wizard Generals". The name is read as Oracion Seis." Happy returns back to reality. "Huh? That is strange."

"See? There are supposed to be six, so what's with the seventh?" Lucy asked in irritation.

"And wait... Are we dropping the whole talking staff thing already?" Aira added on.

Happy sighed out loud. "It's all ridiculous I don't know where to start."

The staff jumps out of Natsu's hand. "You violent brat... Soon I'll be able to see the guild of those fools... I must clean up the trash without delay."

"You mean Cait Shelter?!" Lucy exclaimed.

"Exactly! We will begin our destruction by crushing them!" The staff laughs out loud.

Meanwhile, Erza begins sparring with Midnight, who easily reflects her sword slashes and eventually wraps and traps her in her own armor. Her next armor is also destroyed by Midnight's Magic. Erza falls after Midnight uses an attack called Spiral Pain. Midnight then turns his attention towards Jellal, who asks why they are attacking Cait Shelter. Midnight also explains the same thing the staff did to Natsu and the rest.

"They have the power to seal Nirvana once against that is why we must destroy them." Brain's staff explained.

He then requests Jellal to join a new set of Oracion Seis Generals that Midnight hopes to gather. Midnight's ranting about Jellal's soul being full of darkness brings back Jellal's memories of his past, and he almost succumbs to despair and joins Midnight. However, Erza uses the last of her strength to stand up and tells Jellal that there is light inside his soul and reassures him that she is always there for him. She then requips into the Robe of Yuen and confronts Midnight once more with confidence, stating that she will defeat him and end his madness no matter what.

"There is no stopping us! We are near! Cait Shelter!" The staff exclaimed.

Erza continues her fight against the last General of the Oracion Seis; Midnight. However, Midnight keeps deflecting her attacks used against him and Jellal is already beaten. Erza finally figures out two weaknesses in Midnight's powers. One is that he can only bend space in one specific area at a time and two is that he can't bend human bodies. In her flexible armor, the Robe of Yuen, Erza finally manages to defeat Midnight by attacking him with multiple swords while he attempts to crush her armor, rendering Midnight incapable of deflecting the barrage of swords. She then explains that the armor itself is "flexible" and hence immune to Midnight's powers and breaks free of her confines, but declines to finish him off, thinking that he will give up now that he's been defeated.

Just then a clock in the Ancient City atop Nirvana begins chiming, signifying the beginning of midnight. Midnight then begans laughing hysterically, gloating that his reflector ability is taken to the extremes at midnight. He then begins transforming into a hideous beast and attacks Jellal and Erza. He taunts and attempts to break Erza by showing her images of her friends who have died. Erza then realizes that Midnight too was a slave at the Tower of Heaven. Midnight then reveals his hatred for Jellal and tricks Erza into attacking Jellal (by disguising Jellal as himself). Erza then realizes he is using an Illusion Magic now and uses her artificial eye to negate his Magic. She then swiftly defeats Midnight, who releases his prayer to be able to sleep in a quiet place and falls unconscious, despairing about his defeat.
