After the Dark Demon Castle of the Demon God's Soul landed, several enormous black iron chains immediately extended from the castle, reaching the black temple above, completely binding the temple.
The chains then slowly lifted the temple into the castle above.
During this process, numerous powerful demons stood guard, preventing anyone from taking the opportunity to disrupt the operation.
"The temple is in place." On top of the clock tower in Crocus, Ophelia, looking pale, whispered as she observed the temple completely entering the castle.
"Yes, now, it's our stage to perform."
Dylan, standing nearby, clenched his fists, cracking his knuckles as he eagerly said, "Suppress all resistance, and make everyone tremble under the Demon God's authority!"
"Dylan-senpai, don't get too carried away, after all, we still have a mission to complete,"
Luther said nonchalantly, still looking lazy.
However, Dylan could feel a subtle, malicious gaze from Luther, as if he was waiting for an opening to strike and take him down.
"...Luther, you bastard," Dylan muttered, feeling frustrated but unsure how to vent.
After all, Luther hadn't done anything outrageous, and he had no reason to strike first.
So, with frustration, he kicked the unconscious Arcadios lying on the ground.
"Forget it, let's change the subject. How should we deal with this guy?"
"Don't worry about him," Ophelia shook her head and said,
"His mind has already been on the brink of collapse after my prolonged manipulation. No one can save him now. There's no need to waste energy."
She then added, "Our task is simple and clear: we need to take down the high-end combat forces of the resistance in Crocus. Although these forces can't stop Master's grand plan, they are still bothersome. It's better to deal with them."
"Understood. Let's get moving then," Dylan said excitedly.
.............
Crocus Central Square.
"They're here."
Makarov muttered, observing the massive demons, each over five meters tall, along with several mages from the Demon God's Soul faction.
He then looked up and shouted, "Attack!"
"OH!!"
The members of the Fairy Tail guild responded in unison, charging toward the demons and the members of the Demon God's Soul faction.
Various spells were cast immediately, clashing with the many demons and mages of the Demon God's Soul faction, causing massive explosions.
...
"Sabertooth, full attack!"
The new leader of the Sabertooth guild, Sting, shouted loudly.
All of the Sabertooth members roared and charged toward every demon and Demon God's Soul mage that came their way.
...
"I can't believe it's truly a demon army."
"Don't retreat, now is the time to show our Blue Pegasus strength," said Ichiya, his voice serious.
He then led the mages of Blue Pegasus to engage in battle.
....
"Defeat them with numbers!"
"Use all the remaining magical power!"
"Charge!!"
The cries of battle, the sounds of combat, and the clash of weapons echoed through every street of Crocus.
The once prosperous capital of the Kingdom of Fiore had now become a true battlefield.
Every moment, people were torn apart by demons, and demons were surrounded and killed by mages.
Blood and slaughter became the only melody of the entire city.
No mercy or hesitation was required now; the only goal was to kill the enemy.
...............
"Damn, there are just too many of them, and the strength of the demons and the members of the Demon God's Soul is also quite troublesome."
Holding her twin blades, Erza swept them across, cutting through the neck of a demon, its massive body collapsing.
As Erza landed, she flicked the black blood off her blades and spoke with some difficulty.
Although Erza was powerful, facing the seemingly endless demon army still made her feel helpless.
Moreover, these demons weren't weaklings—some of them were even as strong as the Ten Great Saints of Magic.
Added to that, there were the members of the Demon God's Soul, who, though few in number, were all above the rank of elite mages.
Fiore's elite mages had gathered in Crocus, but they were still only evenly matched with the demon army.
In some areas, they were even at a disadvantage.
Clap, clap.
The sound of light applause reached Erza's ears, instantly making her tense up.
She immediately assumed a defensive stance and looked toward the source of the applause.
"Truly deserving of being Fairy Tail's strongest female mage. No wonder Garlos sees Fairy Tail as its greatest opponent."
Sitting atop the ruins of a building, Reign generously praised her.
"You're... the Throne of the Demon God's Soul?"
After a brief moment of thought, Erza recognized him.
Though they had never directly fought, as one of the first Thrones to come into contact with Fairy Tail, Erza had seen Reign before at the Tower of Heaven, where he appeared as a helper to Jellal.
Though seven years had passed, Reign's appearance hadn't changed much, so Erza was still able to recognize him.
"Yes, I am Reign, one of the Seven Thrones of the Demon God's Soul. Our mission now is to eliminate the high-end combat power of the magicians, and the first target I have chosen is you, the Fairy Queen, Erza Scarlet."
As Reign's words fell, suddenly, several different weapons appeared out of thin air behind him—swords, blades, halberds, spears, hammers—all glowing with a cold, purple light, making them look highly menacing.
Erza's expression grew serious.
She didn't call for other members because she knew that the rest of the Fairy Tail members were likely in fierce battles themselves and wouldn't be able to assist her.
Even if she called for help, aside from a few powerful members, others might not be able to help her.
So, Erza chose to face Reign alone.
"Switch!"
Erza shouted lightly, and a flash of light surrounded her.
In an instant, she was clad in the Celestial Wheel Armor, a suit that allowed her to control multiple weapons at once.
A series of long swords stood upright behind her as she faced Reign.
"Indeed, you are a formidable opponent," Reign said, his eyes gleaming with excitement.
His magical power surged like an ocean.
.............
A red-haired girl stood on the rooftop of a building, gazing expressionlessly at the city of Crocus, which had fallen into chaos with blood and fire.
She softly muttered, "Tina dislikes this scenery, but Tina must complete what my master has instructed."
"Hey, there's someone here!" A voice came from behind Tina.
Two magicians who had moved to this spot noticed her presence.
One magician reached out and patted her shoulder, saying, "You should leave here. I saw several powerful demons heading this way."
However, the moment the magician's hand touched Tina's shoulder, his body suddenly froze.
Immediately afterward, he collapsed to the ground without warning.
"What happened?! What's going on?" The other magician, seeing his comrade fall, panicked.
Tina slowly turned around.
Her red pupils seemed to burn with flames as she looked at the shocked magician.
She extended her hand and placed it on his head.
"Goodbye," Tina whispered.
The magician whose head she touched immediately turned pale, and he also collapsed to the ground.
