Chapter 28 Thunder Waterfall
Chapter 28 Thunder Waterfall
"Bang!"
A blur flashed past the carriage in an instant.
All that was heard by those present was a loud bang, and then the leaders of both sides, Erza and Erigor, disappeared from their sight.
Only the other people on the train remained, staring at each other.
"Let the battle begin!"
With a gentle flick of his hand, Shirou Kotomine casually pulled out the staff beside his head, and a staff was already in his hand.
"An ice-themed floor!"
A chilling aura emanated from Gray's hand, rapidly spreading outwards.
Upon hearing Shirou Kotomine's words, he was the first to make a move.
In the blink of an eye, the train carriages and the ground centered on him were completely frozen.
As a result, the Iron Forest Mages, who had already surrounded Shirou Kotomine and his two companions, were all deprived of their ability to move freely in a short period of time.
Without proper training, they would find it difficult to adapt to such an environment.
Gray, who was familiar with the environment, quickly led Shirou Kotomine and Lucy out of the train carriage and onto the ground outside the train.
"The environment there is too cramped; it's not suitable for fighting."
After bringing the two out, Gray kept a close eye on the road ahead and gave them a reminder.
"I see!"
Kotomine Shirou nodded slightly.
Gray has a wealth of combat experience.
Seeing the Iron Forest Mages in front of him using magic to destroy the ice surface in an attempt to regain their freedom of movement, Shirou Kotomine began to survey his surroundings.
"Very good, it seems those guys from Iron Forest have done a thorough job of expelling the passengers. There are no other factors around that could affect our battle."
"So, fight with confidence!"
After saying that, Shirou Kotomine raised his staff and activated the great magic engraved in the staff.
The great magic engraved in this staff is a group damage type of magic.
Shirou Kotomine named it "Raikage".
As the name suggests, the effect of this grand magic is to summon lightning from the sky to strike indiscriminately within a designated area.
That is why Shirou Kotomine needs to make sure there are any ordinary people around.
As the grand magic spell called "Thunderfall" was activated, the magic circle above the staff began to expand rapidly, and a booming sound resounded throughout the universe.
"Watch out, get out of the way!"
Upon seeing that Shirou Kotomine had unleashed a spell with such a wide range, the members of the Iron Forest immediately tried to run around to avoid the attack.
However, Gray and Lucy weren't about to let them go so easily.
"Open, Cancer Gate, Keisha."
With the Celestial Key in her hand, Lucy opened the door between the human world and the Celestial Realm, summoning the Cancer Celestial.
"Keisha, give these guys a makeover, don't let them escape."
Pointing at the dark mages before her, Lucy gave a loud command.
"However, please be careful and evacuate before the lightning strikes."
"I understand, Shrimp!"
Upon receiving Lucy's command, the Cancerian Celestial Spirit Keisha wielded her scissors, her figure swiftly sweeping past the enemies as she began to alter their appearance.
During this makeover process, in addition to their hairstyles being changed, these guys also had their weapons destroyed.
His body involuntarily collapsed.
Meanwhile, Gray was also displaying his incredible power.
He created ice artifacts one by one, which flew toward the enemy.
Ice walls, ice axes, ice chains, etc.
Like Lucy, his goal was also to stop these dark mages from escaping.
It happened so fast!
In reality, everything happens in the blink of an eye.
Kotomine Shirou's attack had a very large range and was launched very quickly.
At first glance, it looks like a super magic trick from this world.
But it's only similar.
The super magic in this world is in no way weaker than those top-tier Noble Phantasms in terms of power, and some are even more terrifying.
The "Thunderfall" that Shirou Kotomine released at this moment was completely incomparable to super magic.
But it's more than enough to deal with these rabble.
"Boom!"
With a deafening roar, the lightning that had been accumulating in the dark clouds of the sky began to pour down like a waterfall.
But that wasn't water.
It was thunder, far more terrifying than water.
As the saying goes, it was as powerful as thunder.
"ah!!!"
Besides the thunderous roar of the thunderbolts hitting the ground, the screams of the dark mages echoed in the ears of Shirou Kotomine and his companions.
Faced with this scene, Lucy, feeling somewhat sorry for him, hid behind Shirou Kotomine.
I don't want to continue witnessing such a tragedy.
As for Shirou Mine and Gray, their expressions remained unchanged; such a scene did not touch their hearts.
They were all people who had been baptized.
Like Shirou Kotomine, who was outside the Absolute Demonic Front and had been bathed in death, he was already used to such scenes.
His consistent style was to eradicate evil completely.
And so did Gray.
Although they usually just complete various commissions, the battle between legitimate guilds and dark guilds has never actually stopped.
Although some people have strayed into darkness.
But the vast majority of dark mages are absolute scum.
They deserve to die.
Moreover, in battles between mages, there is no room for holding back.
If you can't bear to do it, the other party will take advantage of your vulnerability and you'll be defeated.
Therefore, after experiencing numerous battles with dark mages, Gray had long since become hard-hearted.
The same applies to other mages.
"You need to get used to it quickly, Lucy!"
"A mage's life is not just about adventures and commissions; battles with dark guilds are commonplace. In those situations, kindness will only put you in danger."
After surveying the surroundings and making sure no one had escaped, Shirou Kotomine turned to Lucy and comforted her.
"Our kindness is reserved for good people, not scum."
"If you really can't suppress your kindness, then become stronger. The strong can also give their kindness to the weak."
"That's a privilege reserved for the strong."
"Um!"
Lucy nodded slightly.
She understood what Shirou Kotomine meant.
Having a kind heart is a good thing.
But pay attention to the direction in which it is used.
Seeing that Lucy was alright, Gray, who had been secretly concerned about his companion, looked into the distance and said, "It seems that Erigor is quite strong; he's managed to fight Erza for so long."
The battlefield between Erigor and Erza is easy to spot.
'Bleach' Erigor is a mage who can control the wind.
The scene of him fighting was magnificent.
The swirling storm could be seen from a great distance by Shirou Kotomine.
"Now that we've got everything ready here, let's hurry and go support Erza."
Lucy quickly regained her composure and said.
"Um!"
Shirou Kotomine and Gray both nodded.
Just as they were heading towards the direction of the storm, a tornado suddenly turned into a fiery tornado.
"That's... Natsu!"
