Craze: Read up to chapter 500 at [email protected]/phelio
The arrival was a spectacular violation of space.
The Phantom Lord army, alerted by the failure of their Magnolia assault, imdiately poured out of the fortress, prepared for war.
They were t not by an attacking army, but by an impossible sight:
The entire, enraged Fairy Tail roster, standing behind a trio of intimidating figures.
The leaders of the Celestial Forge—Rimuru, Shion, and Shuna—standing perfectly composed, guarding dozens of trussed-up Phantom Lord mages, including the captured Elent 4 and their own Iron Dragon Slayer, Gajeel, who was still unable to move.
Rimuru stood at the center, radiating a chilling, absolute stillness. Shion and Shuna flanked the prisoners, their expressions devoid of emotion, their power radiating nace.
Jose Porla, the Master of Phantom Lord and one of the forr Ten Wizard Saints, descended the steps, his face contorted in disbelief and rage.
"What is the aning of this insolence, Fairy Tail?! And who are these upstarts?!"
Jose roared, his dark magic beginning to coalesce around him.
Arthur stepped forward, leaving the combined forces behind him. He looked directly at Jose, his golden eyes filled with an intimidating, absolute calm.
"I am Arthur Leywin Stark, Master of the Celestial Forge. The aning of this is simple: We are ending your war, Jose. You attacked a civilian, you crippled a sister guild, and you violated the sanctuary of my ho. The cost of your actions is the existence of your guild."
Arthur gestured toward the immobilized Elent 4.
"Your elite are defeated and contained. Your best offense is neutralized. Your own Dragon Slayer is currently unable to so much as twitch a finger. The war is over, Jose. I demand your imdiate, public surrender and the dissolution of Phantom Lord."
Jose scoffed, the fanaticism of his own dark magic blinding him to the truth.
"Preposterous! You are rely a boy! Elent 4! Attack!"
His command was t with the horrifying silence of their utter defeat.
"They can't,"
Arthur said simply.
"They are indisposed."
"Very well, since you refuse the path of peace, I offer you the path of unquestionable authority."
Arthur raised his hand, and the atmosphere changed entirely. The entire Phantom Lord army suddenly felt the air thin, their own magic beca sluggish, and a weight pressed upon their very souls.
Arthur channeled his True Dragon God Slayer Magic. This was not an attack ant to burn or freeze; it was an attack on the conceptual will to fight.
A massive, spiraling pillar of black, iridescent energy—the color of ultimate chaos and creation—erupted from Arthur's palm, shooting thousands of feet into the sky.
It bypassed the clouds and struck the conceptual boundary of the continent, causing the very structure of the Tower Dungeon's Sixth Floor to subtly hum in recognition.
The sheer volu of power was paralyzing. Every single mber of the Phantom Lord army, from the lowliest mage to Jose Porla himself, felt their power—the sum total of their life's magical strength—recoil in terror.
They were faced with a power that could, with no effort, simply erase their existence from the tiline.
Jose Porla collapsed to his knees, not physically injured, but utterly psychologically shattered.
His dark magic dissipated, replaced by the profound, primal realization that his own power was an insignificant spark compared to the cosmic inferno standing before him.
"This is not a battle of strength, Jose. This is a lesson in hierarchy,"
Arthur stated, his voice booming over the stunned silence.
"You can continue this war and face total oblivion, or you can surrender and face justice."
Jose, tears of terror and defeated rage streaming down his face, lowered his head to the ground.
"Phantom Lord surrenders. Disband... Disband the guild."
The war was over in minutes. The psychological display was more effective than any physical battle.
Arthur imdiately had Rimuru, Shion, and Shuna oversee the complete, non-violent disarming of the Phantom Lord mages, ensuring not a single person was hard, only defeated.
The entire Fairy Tail guild erupted in cheers, their rage replaced by an overwhelming sense of vindication and profound gratitude towards the Celestial Forge.
Arthur looked at the stunned but safe Natsu and Gray, and then at the grateful Lucy and Levy. The war was over, Phantom Lord was dismantled, and the Celestial Forge had cented its role as the absolute, non-negotiable protector of Fiore's stability.
