Smoke dissipates
Several beams of light pierced through the cloaked man's clothes, freezing him in place from various angles.
The cloaked figure remained motionless, as if he had already lost his fighting ability.
But only Zorn knew that the cloaked man's body contained an even more terrifying energy at this moment.
After glancing behind him at the golden kitten with tears still in its eyes, Zorn opted for a safer attack method.
Remote attack.
With one hand outstretched, a giant golden Magic Circle unfolded, its very tip radiating dazzling light.
The light rapidly spread, transforming into countless thin beams of light that crisscrossed, enveloping the cloaked figure like a woven net.
Zorn stared at the pillar of light that blocked the cloaked figure, and tightened his grip slightly.
The beam of light instantly transformed, suddenly turning into sharp spikes.
A two-pronged approach.
Only
The cloaked figure shuddered violently, releasing black energy that formed an equal number of black beams, each striking the target.
At the moment of impact, the golden beam of light was momentarily dissolved before exploding in mid-air.
Seeing this, Zorn frowned.
"I didn't expect that your strength would have improved so much after so long?"
"Zorn!!"
Upon hearing the cloaked figure clearly call out his name, Zorn's gaze instantly turned cold.
Staring at the black Magic Power emanating from his body, Zorn made up his mind.
Does this man have some grudge against me from when I first arrived in this world?
No, I was so young back then, and the other person looked quite old, at least ten years older than me.
How could they have become enemies?
Could it be...?
While Zorn was still pondering this in his mind...
The cloaked figure directly opposite him twisted his body forcefully, shattering the pillars of light that had been binding him. He took a few steps forward, and his cloak also broke apart with his movement.
Their appearance was then revealed.
When Zorn saw the man, the scar that ran from his face all the way down his chest and abdomen made Zorn raise an eyebrow.
"Is this my masterpiece?"
"If that's the case?"
"That is indeed... a very deep grudge."
Zorn took the golden cat out of the hat with one hand.
I'm sorry, but I can't let you stay by my side this time!
"However, don't worry, everything is foolproof within this barrier!"
Zorn reached out and stroked the golden cat's head, then a golden defensive sphere materialized around it.
Looking at the cat high in the sky, there was no possibility of danger.
Zorn shrugged.
"Uncle, I don't remember much about the past! But it seems you should be able to answer my questions."
The Magic Power within Zorn was no longer suppressed and was fully unleashed.
A powerful golden light shot into the sky, causing the rubble on the ground to ripple and scatter.
It slowly came to a stop in mid-air.
This phenomenon immediately drew the attention of people in other parts of the Kingdom, who also felt this powerful Magic Power.
They all stopped their attacks.
Ecloria: "This... this kind of Magic Power..."
She felt as if she were on a small boat, floating on a turbulent sea, facing the surging waves, and she was acutely aware of her own insignificance.
The other enemies felt the same way, all staring at the distant pillar of light with fear in their eyes.
Laxus, on the other hand, seemed unaffected and continued to engage in a thrilling battle with Gildarts of this world.
He wasn't worried about Zorn; he had a very important opponent to fight right now.
Not far away.
An orange cat was also protected within the Defensive Magic circle created by the Three Pillar Gods.
The orange cat, on the other hand, looked excited, watching the two fight with admiration. Its eyes sparkled as it followed their battle, sometimes in the sky, sometimes on the ground.
The pillar of golden Magic Power slowly descended, compressed by Zorn.
Slowly, armor plates formed around his body, and a purplish-black gold katana materialized in his hand.
"I guess I've shown half of my abilities!"
"That's enough to deal with you!"
Zorn said calmly, but his figure flashed and he rushed straight in front of the cloaked man, unleashing a slash.
The cloaked figure imbued the black sword with black energy, then with an upward thrust, blocked Zorn's sword, unleashing a shockwave of energy.
The surrounding trees snapped under the impact of this energy, their branches and leaves flying everywhere. The nearby boulder was shattered into Crash, turning into a rain of stones that filled the air.
The ground beneath our feet seemed to tremble, cracking open with deep, bottomless fissures.
"Just like before, overflowing with confidence!"
"But this time you're not getting away, Zorn!"
"I don't care if you've forgotten what happened back then!"
The cloaked man looked at Zorn before him, his heart filled with the Pleasure of finally getting revenge. He had only wanted to seize the throne of the Kingdom, but he never expected to see his long-vanished enemy again.
It seems that their disappearance back then was simply a transfer to Another World.
The two jumped away.
Brain swung his sword forcefully, a black slash cutting through the sky, carrying a hurricane as it hurtled towards Zorn, while he himself charged up again.
He crouched slightly, a cold laugh on his face, and continued, "Remember this: my name is Ith- Brain."
"What a nuisance!"
Zorn rubbed the tip of his nose. It seemed that the butterfly effect he had caused was still powerful. However, when he thought of Erza and the matter that Brain had mentioned, he had no recollection of it at all.
His hands moved deftly, instantly forming a Holy Shield that successfully blocked the attack.
With a slight twist in his hand, he pulled it back, and the slash slowly twisted, forming a powerful Energy Cannon under Zorn's control.
He immediately counterattacked against Brain.
"That attack is far from enough!"
"Since you won't bring it up, then I'll make you say it while I'm hitting you!"
Zorn replied coldly.
A Magic Circle formed in the sky, and countless Light Swords shot down.
Along with Zorn's attack, they charged towards Brain.
Brain, seeing the barrage of attacks and Zorn's cold expression, was somewhat shocked. He hadn't expected that the child would possess such strength in just a few years.
And it's only half their strength.
He himself had undergone a brutal ordeal to acquire his strength.
Brain recalled the agony of being caught between life and death, and his body trembled. He quickly shook his head.
He took Zorn seriously, but thinking about the other arrangements, he felt a little more at ease!
