Dimensional Judgment Descends

"Just some small fry like this!"

"So, be careful. Don't make eye contact with that guy," Ling Yuan warned.

"Understood!"

Hearing Ling Yuan's words, Laxus became even more vigilant.

It was also the first time he experienced the benefits of a group chat.

While Laxus was wary of Jose and Aria, the Three Elements beside him were dragging the unconscious Gajeel away.

He was, after all, a pillar of their guild.

"Makarov's grandson, you've thoroughly shamed my guild today."

Glancing at the mages lying on the ground around him, Jose's gaze was extremely grim.

The guild he least wanted to lose to was Fairy Tail.

But how could the other side, with just one person, wipe out his entire guild?

If this got out, Phantom Lord's reputation would be ruined, and clients might even stop giving them jobs after comparing them to Fairy Tail.

A purple, eerie light appeared.

In Jose's hands, dark purple magic formed puppets around him.

Laxus frowned.

What an ominous power.

Is this guy really a legitimate guild?!

"Jose, it's probably best for us old folks not to interfere in the battles of the younger generation."

Just then, an extremely calm voice rang out.

Laxus and the Thunder Legion members froze, quickly turning their heads, their pupils contracting.

"Old man!"

Makarov, already clad in his Ten Wizard Saints attire, walked in with a serious expression.

At the same time, Natsu and the others were behind him.

"Laxus, you're really something else, coming to challenge Phantom Lord alone," Natsu complained as he approached Laxus.

However, anyone could hear the joy in his voice.

In his heart, nothing was happier than comrades helping each other.

Even Erza's opinion of Laxus had improved.

"Hmph!"

Of course, the tsundere powerhouse would never admit it, crossing his arms and snorting.

Seeing this, Makarov smiled with relief.

His foolish grandson had finally come to his senses.

"Makarov!"

Enemies meeting, eyes blazing with hatred, Jose stared fixedly at him.

He had harbored resentment ever since he lost to Makarov.

"Makarov, your grandson trespassed into Phantom Lord alone and openly attacked other guild members. You know the consequences of this, right?"

"Consequences?" To his surprise, Makarov chuckled dismissively.

"A guild is my home. You hurt my children and then you want to ask me for an explanation? Jose, you truly don't know the immensity of heaven and earth!"

"Makarov!"

Being mocked in front of so many people, Jose's anger surged, his eyes turning black, stained with magic.

Makarov ignored him and looked at Laxus, saying with satisfaction, "Laxus, you did very well. The next match will be between the guild masters."

Laxus blinked.

He hadn't been praised by the old man like this in a long time...

After a moment of silence, Laxus said, "Old man, whatever you do, don't make eye contact with that guy with the eyes."

Hearing Laxus's words, Makarov frowned.

His grandson knew his strength, yet he still said something like that.

This meant that the opponent possessed an ability that could even threaten him?

Finally, although Laxus retreated to Natsu and the others' side, he was ready to unleash his power.

He stared intently at the figure of Sora, one of the Four Elements.

Boom!

The moment Laxus stepped back, the magic around Makarov and Jose surged.

The gravel on the ground couldn't help but float into the air under this terrifying pressure.

The next second

Snap!

All the gravel fell.

Makarov used Giant Magic and threw a heavy punch at Jose.

Jose, like a nimble Katarina—no, a nimble monkey, continuously dodged.

Magic from his fingers turned into bullets, attacking non-stop.

The other members could only watch anxiously.

"Dark Stream!"

A dark gray magic circle opened, and countless streams of magic surged towards Makarov.

Makarov didn't back down, spreading his hands.

A golden magic circle of the same kind opened, and the same torrent of magic collided.

Although the battle between the two Ten Wizard Saints didn't cause much destruction, it exuded an extremely terrifying oppressive aura.

The so-called Ten Wizard Saints were the ten most outstanding mages on this continent.

The fact that both of them were among them showed that their strength was top-tier on this continent.

In the intense battle with Jose, Makarov momentarily forgot about Aria.

Jose's lips curved into a sly smile.

"Aria!"

Unknowingly, Jose had actually lured Makarov in front of Aria.

Turning around, he revealed Aria, who had removed his eye patch, standing behind him.

"You wish!"

Laxus, who had been on guard all along, roared and turned into a leaping bolt of lightning, instantly charging in front of Aria.

"Sky Domain Annihilation!"

Aria's lips curled up, and he spread his arms, a chilling light appearing in Makarov's pupils.

'This is bad!'

Makarov's heart skipped a beat.

But the next second, a figure covered in lightning appeared before him.

"Lightning Dragon's Fists!"

However, just as Laxus's fist was about to hit the opponent.

It met Aria's gaze directly.

The next second, Laxus's heart leaped, and the magic around him vanished instantly.

Aria, having completed his task, quickly jumped away.

"Die, Death Storm!"

Jose's charging attack was complete, and a purple light shot out violently.

It was so fast that no one had time to react.

Bang!

A huge cloud of dust engulfed everyone's vision.

When the dust cleared

It revealed a knocked-out Laxus and Makarov, who had just spat out a mouthful of blood.

"MASTER, Laxus?!" Natsu shouted loudly upon seeing this.

After speaking, he rushed out.

The others could no longer stand still and rushed out together.

"Jose!"

Looking at his grandson, who was unconscious, Makarov glared at Jose not far away through gritted teeth.

"Tsk, what a shame. It's a great regret that I didn't take care of you," Jose said with an apologetic expression.

"You bastard!"

Natsu and Gray couldn't hold back any longer.

They charged fiercely towards Jose.

"Don't come any closer, you ants," Jose said with a look of disdain.

He waved his hand.

The purple magic whip directly struck the two, sending them flying into the wall.

"Natsu, Gray!" Erza shouted.

Then, she turned an angry gaze towards Jose and Aria.

"So sad~ so sad~" Aria cried loudly, putting his eyepatch back on.

But to everyone's ears, it was grating.

Lucy stumbled back a step.

She was filled with self-reproach.

It was all her fault, everything was because of her.

If it weren't for her, the Guild Master and Laxus wouldn't be like this.

Hearing the commotion, Jose looked up. He saw Lucy and a lewd smile spread across his face. "Oh my, isn't this our Miss Lucy Heartfilia? You really made me search for you."

The next moment

Erza stepped in front of Lucy, holding her sword and looking warily at Jose.

The other guild members also shielded Lucy.

"I told you to be careful, yet you're still so careless."

Just then, a helpless voice suddenly echoed through the empty hall.

Chapter 25: Go on, suck it. Just suck it.

Time rewinded two minutes.

Seeing Laxus fall, the few watching the broadcast were stunned.

Akame: "Is he dead?"
