To the mbers of the Fairy Tail guild, Noel was soone who, no matter how dire the situation, could always remain calm and rational, never wavering due to external factors.
His strength was different from Laxus's absolute confidence or Gildarts's steadiness, yet he was equally a pillar of support for everyone.
In their eyes, Noel was soone untouched by doubt or fear.
But for the first ti, they saw Noel falter.
His once composed face turned deathly pale, as if he had just witnessed the most bewildering sight in the world.
Even his body, which had been hovering steadily in the air, wavered slightly before slowly descending back to the ground.
His lips trembled as he repeatedly mouthed the sa words.
Though the distance was far, everyone could still barely make out what he was saying.
"Im...pos...si...ble."
Soft footsteps echoed in the air.
Though they were barely audible, they reached everyone's ears with an eerie clarity, as if the sound was bypassing the physical world and resonating directly within their souls.
Then, a young girl's figure entered their sight.
She was an absolutely stunning girl.
Her long, silky pink hair was tied into a ponytail at the back, with a crescent-shaped ornant holding up the strands on her left temple.
Her sapphire-blue eyes sparkled like the finest gemstones, and her exquisitely delicate features seed like the most perfect creation of the gods, flawless in every way.
Draped over her slender fra was a black cloak, beneath which she wore a white outfit adorned with intricate purple patterns.
The girl walked forward slowly, a gentle smile gracing her lips.
"Impossible... Why... How could this be...?" Noel murmured absentmindedly as he stared at the approaching Lia, his mind lost in disbelief.
"Impossible?" Lia tilted her head slightly.
"What exactly do you find impossible, Nord-niisama? That I could break free from your seal? Or that I could appear here before you?"
"Lia..." Noel could only utter her na before he found himself unable to say anything more.
Lia's smile grew even softer.
At so point, she had already appeared right in front of him.
Before Noel could react, her fair and delicate hand had already reached up to gently caress his face.
"It's been so long, Niisama... I've missed you so much. I'm so happy to see you again. My most beloved brother."
As he gazed at Lia's face, now so close to his own, Noel instinctively took a few steps back, avoiding her touch.
His lips trembled, but he couldn't form a single coherent sentence.
Lia withdrew her hand, her expression unchanged despite Noel's evasive reaction.
Then, she shifted her gaze toward the Fairy Tail camp in the distance and spoke.
"Those over there... are the mbers of Fairy Tail, correct? Hmm, all this ti, thank you for taking care of my dear brother."
The smile on Lilia's lips beca even more flawless, and her voice grew even softer and sweeter.
"And now, would you all kindly die for ?"
BOOM!
Without warning, a bolt of black lightning, condensed from divine power, erupted from Lia's hand.
It tore through the air, obliterating everything in its path as it hurtled toward the Fairy Tail camp.
The terrifying impact sent violent tremors through the entire area.
As the dust settled, the Fairy Tail camp remained intact.
Noel was kneeling on the ground, a trickle of blood seeping from the corner of his lips.
The mont Lia attacked, he had reacted instantly, appearing in the path of the black lightning to block the devastating strike that would have annihilated his comrades.
However, the sheer power of the attack had exceeded even Noel's expectations.
The energy he had gathered in haste was not enough to completely neutralize Lia's assault, and so of the black divine power had slipped through his defenses, striking his body and leaving him wounded.
"Niisama, why are you stopping ?"
Lia's figure appeared before Noel, her voice soft yet unwavering.
"You always like to push yourself too hard... It's a good thing that the one who hurt you was , because... I'm the only one who is allowed to hurt you."
She reached out her hand, attempting to touch Noel.
However, the mont her fingers were about to make contact, Noel had already moved.
His hand shot out, firmly grasping Lia's palm.
"Why... did you attack my comrades?" Noel asked.
Lia's eyes narrowed slightly as she looked at her hand, which was being held by Noel.
A few seconds later, she finally responded:
"Because to you, Niisama, they are unnecessary existences. You only need , and that alone is enough."
Noel slowly loosened his grip on Lia's palm.
After a brief silence, he spoke, his voice much deeper than before:
"I've always rembered... what happened back then."
"Hmm?" Lia's smile remained unchanged.
"I'm not as strong as I seem... That's why after that day, I never went back to that place. Even after encountering the Thrones of the Demon God's Soul, I never thought of you... No, maybe I had already realized it long ago. I just didn't want to face it, didn't want to believe it. Because I didn't know how I should face you, what expression I should wear, or what mindset I should have.
But now, I finally understand... I will protect my comrades. Even if my opponent is you, I will not run away like last ti, Lia."
Noel lifted his head, the confusion in his gaze finally clearing.
Six white wings flapped, carrying him into the sky.
In an instant, he had already ascended to great heights, leaving behind only one sentence:
"Co to the sky, Lia."
Lia's smile gradually faded, disappearing entirely.
As she watched Noel's figure soaring upwards, she murmured softly to herself:
"Nord-niisama, you've changed. Compared to before, you've beco stronger and gentler. And precisely because you are like this... that's why I love you the most, Niisama."
"Lance."
Lia suddenly spoke, calling out to Lance, who had long since freed himself from the stone wall and was standing unhard to the side.
"Master, do you have any orders?"
"I'll leave this place to you. No problem, right?" Lia asked calmly.
Although it was phrased as a question, the way she said it left no room for refusal.
Lance silently nodded.
Lia's face lit up with a smile.
Suddenly, six black wings appeared behind her.
With a slight flap, she swiftly ascended into the sky, following Noel's figure.
Lance watched Lia's departing silhouette and let out a soft sigh before saying, "Now then, let's quickly take care of this trouble and—"
Boom!
Before Lance could finish his sentence, a blast of silver-red flas struck him directly.
The explosion sent fiery fragnts scattering in all directions.
Lance turned his head to look toward the source of the attack.
Silver platinum flas mixed with crimson fire, and scale-like marks appeared on his arms and face.
Natsu stood amidst the raging flas, his sharp, upturned eyes burning with intense fighting spirit.
"Hey, don't forget—there are still people here who can fight. We're still standing."
Lance turned his body to face Natsu, Lucy, Wendy, Bickslow, Freed, and Cana, who stood not far away.
He shook his head slightly and softly muttered two words:
"As expected... troubleso."
