Chapter 78 - Grimore Heart VS Fairy Tail (I)

Axel launched a blue flare in the air signaling that the exam is over. All the participants saw the blue flare and sighed in defeat. All of them knew who completed the exam. All of them saw how Cana flew along with Lucy. Soon a red flare could be seen which indicated an attack.

Erza was sitting along with Makarov and the rest of the S-Class mages. Erza saw the blue flare followed by the red flare and knew what that meant including all those who were sitting along with her.

Erza: All of you spread ou and look for any intruders. Kill them if needed.

Makarov: I am also going with them.

Erza: No, both of us will go and meet Axel, after that we can attack the intruders. We don't know what are they after so until we know that, I ain't risking engaging in some serious fight.

Makarov: Fine... then let's go.

All the S-Class mages except Gildarts rose in the air and flew towards different directions. Gildarts was confused about where he should go, so Erza decided to help him out.

Erza: Head in that direction you will find Natsu and Happy.

Gildarts nodded and disappeared leaving a dust trail behind him. Erza grabbed Makarov and started to rise in the air. Ezra then flew towards Axel's direction.

Erza: Of course, Master.

~WITH LEVY AND GAJEEL~

They were wandering through the forest in search of Mavis's grave. But soon they saw a blue flare indicating that someone has finished the exam.

Levy: I guess Cana did it.

Gajeel: You shouldn't lose hope, we all know that Cana was already an S-Class.

Levy: I know... but I am still happy for her.

Soon a red flare could be seen in the sky which shocked both of them.

Gajeel: That doesn't look good.

Levy: It isn't, we are under attack. We need to meet with others.

Levy and Gajeel started to head back but after a few moments, they were stopped by two enemies. One looked like a humanized chicken while the other looked humanized dog. They didn't give Levy and Gajeel any time to prepare and started to attack them.

Levy: Who are you?? Why are you attacking us??

Kawazu: My name is Kawazu and I am a member of Grimoire Heart.

Yomazu: My name is Yomazu and I am also a member of Grimoire Heart.

Levy: The dark guild? But why are you attacking us?

Kawazu: You don't need to know since both of you will soon die.

After saying that the battle continued among the four members representing two different guilds. Gajeel and Levy soon started to lose ground against the members of Grimoire Heart.

Kawazu: Is this the strength of Fairy Tail?? This must be a joke.

Yowazu: Yes... I would never understand why Ultear betrayed us for these losers.

The members of Grimoire Heart decided to mock Gajeel and Levy before they would start their attack again. But before Kawazu could attack something came out of his c_h_e_s_t and blood started to pour from his c_h_e_s_t. Yowazu saw that and turned towards Kawazu but it was too late. Levy and Gajeel were shocked to see that too, soon Kawazu did and his body dropped on the ground revealing Irene standing with a bloodied staff.

Yowazu roared but before he could even move the ground erupted and engulfed him and crushed his body which made blood spray out everywhere.

Irene: Are you both okay??

Gajeel: Yes, we are fine.

Both Levy and Gajeel were slightly disturbed to see the blood all around them and how easily Irene killed both of them. But they weren't going to antagonize their savior. They also knew that they couldn't win against these two members. This gave both of them more determination so that they can keep getting stronger and they were very far from Irene in the matter of strength.

~WITH WENDY AND MEST~

Both of them were resting on a hill after their defeat by the hands of Ur. Ur knocked out Mest and decided to leave Wendy with him so that she could heal him. After sometime Lily and Carla showed up and started to attack Mest.

Wendy: Why are you attacking him??

Lily: He isn't a member of this guild, he is some kind of spy.

When Wendy heard Lily she started to rewind her memory and found that there was no one named Mest in the guild. She remembered that Mest was a disciple of Mystogan but Wendy found that there was nothing relating to that in her memory. She understood the Mest must have messed with her memories. Mest saw that the cat is out of the bag and decided to drop the act.

Carla: You are lying... I saw that you left Wendy here.

Mest: What...?? No... as you can see I am still here.

Lily: I am sorry I cannot trust you because of the things you did after you joined the guild. You could be still playing with our memories.

Mest: If that is what you believe then I have no proof to show you but I will tell you this that as of now I am not so sure that if I should work for the Council or join back my guild.

Lily was about to attack Mest but was stopped by an unknown voice.

???: Maybe you can fix that by dying.

All of them turned towards the direction from which the voice came and found a tall man.

Lily: Who are you??

Azuma: My name is Azuma and I am one of the Six Kins of Purgatory from Grimoire Heart.

Lily: Tch... coward.

Azuma: One less person for me to kill.

Azuma moved to attack Lily with Bleeve put his punch was stopped by a woman who appeared out of thin air.

Ultear: You will regret trying to do that...
