Fairy Tail Destiny-Chapter 170: Ch : Defeating the Twin Retainers

The scattered dust gradually settled.

Looking at the scene of devastation before him, Noel's face did not show the slightest hint of a smile.

Instead, he slightly furrowed his brows.

"Troublesome."

Noel softly uttered the word, his gaze shifting to the side of the battlefield, just outside the range of his Holy Light Arrow attack.

There, where his strike should have landed, Azuma was kneeling on one knee, breathing heavily.

Beside him stood a man dressed in purple, sporting a slicked-back pompadour hairstyle and wearing glasses.

"So, it was you who interfered just now?" Noel spoke in a calm voice.

"If I'm not mistaken, you are also one of the Seven Kin of Purgatory, just like him, a member of Grimoire Heart."

The moment Noel's gaze locked onto him, Rustyrose—one of the Seven Kin of Purgatory—felt his body tense up.

During that previous attack, he had arrived just in time, using his Arc of Embodiment at maximum power to conjure a Golden Shield, delaying Noel's Holy Light Arrow for a mere second.

Within that fleeting moment, he had managed to pull Azuma aside, narrowly avoiding the attack.

However, that brief moment had been enough for Rustyrose to feel an overwhelming sense of terror—a suffocating pressure unlike anything he had experienced before.

It was an oppressive magical force that made him feel as if he were standing before Master Hades himself—or perhaps something even more terrifying.

"Hah... Azuma, you've really run into an absolute monster this time," Rustyrose murmured, using all his willpower to force himself to remain calm.

His trembling hand adjusted his glasses slightly as he spoke in a low voice.

By now, Azuma had regained his composure and slowly stood up, his expression growing more serious as he took a battle stance.

"Rustyrose, it looks like this time... we must fight together," he said gravely.

"Otherwise, we are truly going to die."

Rustyrose silently nodded in agreement.

Without giving the two any more time to communicate, Noel stepped forward, instantly charging toward them again.

"Dwell within my feet, Pegasus Wings!"

Seeing Noel approaching at high speed, Rustyrose's feet suddenly sprouted a pair of small feathered wings, lifting him into the air.

"Guardian Beast—Tempest Belfast!"

Rustyrose shouted as a surge of vast purple magic power erupted behind him.

A ferocious beast, formed purely from condensed magical energy, materialized out of thin air and threw a powerful punch toward Noel.

Yet, Noel's face remained completely indifferent.

Spreading both hands apart, he spoke:

"Piercing Beam."

Boom!

A brilliant beam of light shot out from Noel's hands, slicing through the air.

In an instant, it effortlessly pierced through Rustyrose's summoned creature, disintegrating it as if it were nothing.

Using the collapsing Belfast as a foothold, Noel propelled himself forward, closing the distance between himself and Rustyrose in an instant.

"What?!"

Rustyrose's face twisted in shock.

His Guardian Beast, which should have been his strongest defense, had been obliterated in the blink of an eye.

He found it hard to believe, but he quickly forced himself to react.

His right hand surged with purple magic, transforming into a hardened, steel-like claw.

"Ebon Blade!"

His black, claw-like arm shot toward Noel, aiming to seize and crush him in a single grip.

However, Noel only let out a cold snort, his right arm surging with a terrifyingly powerful force.

"Holy Light—Radiant Glory!"

"AAAAAH!!"

The moment the black beast claw collided with the shining white fist, an unbearable agony shot through Rustyrose's arm.

In the next instant, his Ebon Blade was shattered into pieces by the sheer power of Noel's light magic.

His arm reverted to normal, but deep, bloody wounds had torn across it, fresh blood spilling uncontrollably.

"Blade of Light."

Not intending to give Rustyrose any chance to escape, Noel's left hand condensed a dazzling white longsword. The radiant blade gleamed like a beacon as he slashed toward Rustyrose, who was paralyzed by pain and unable to move.

Boom!

The pure white Blade of Light was suddenly blocked by a green vine that appeared out of nowhere.

Noel's eyes flickered slightly as he caught sight of Azuma, standing firmly on the ground with a heavy expression.

"Branch Sword."

With a swift motion of Azuma's hand, countless tree branches, sharp as swords, shot toward Noel under his command.

Faced with thousands of flying branches, Noel frowned slightly.

Left with no choice, he abandoned his plan to finish off Rustyrose in one strike.

Instead, he swung his Blade of Light, deflecting the incoming wooden swords to the side.

"Damn it! No one can overcome the power of Endless Fantasy! Die!"

Having retreated to the side, Rustyrose let out a furious roar.

Ignoring the pain of his wounded right arm, he swung his hand, channeling all his remaining magic power.

Suddenly, a massive tower began to rise from the ground, materializing from nothing.

It surged upward, aiming straight for Noel in midair, threatening to crush him beneath its overwhelming force.

"Fantasy is just fantasy. Such things should simply be crushed with absolute power."

Noel pressed his hands together, and a white sphere slowly took shape between them.

The massive orb, about the size of a person, flickered with platinum flames, radiating an aura that was both divine and terrifying.

"[Holy Light Magic—Helios' Wrathful Flame]!"

With a forward thrust of his hands, Noel sent the platinum fireball hurtling downward like a falling meteor, crashing directly into the rising Imperial Tower.

BOOM!

A deafening explosion, like a massive boulder colliding with a towering structure, echoed through the battlefield, shaking the very air.

The platinum fireball erupted, igniting the entire tower in an instant.

The unleashed flames, as if they were a ravenous beast, devoured everything in their path without restraint, reducing the tower to rubble.

"Impossible!"

Rustyrose stared in disbelief as his once unstoppable Imperial Tower was obliterated before his eyes.

His entire body stiffened in shock, leaving him momentarily frozen in place.

"There's no such thing as impossible. [Holy Blade of Light]."

A sudden voice jolted Rustyrose back to reality.

His blood ran cold—the surge of an overwhelming magical force was already upon him.

There was no time to dodge, no way to resist.

BANG!

A brilliant sword-like beam of light shot forth from the sky, crashing down with devastating power.

Struck directly, Rustyrose was violently blasted from midair, slamming into the ground with immense force.

His body embedded deep into the earth, his consciousness fading into darkness.

Noel slowly descended to the ground, his cold gaze locking onto Azuma.

"You're the only one left."

His calm and indifferent voice sent a chill down Azuma's spine.

But he knew—there was no escaping now.

And even if there was, he wouldn't run.

Gritting his teeth, Azuma brought both hands together before him.

Violent magical energy surged through his body, causing his skin to bulge unnaturally, as if something alive was crawling through his veins.

"You truly are powerful, Noel Rutherford."

Azuma's eyes sharpened with determination.

The very ground beneath him trembled violently, as if responding to his will.

"I may not have had enough time to fully control the magic of Tenrou Island, but I have managed to command a portion of it. Now, take my strongest attack—[Roar of the Earth]!!!"

BOOM!

The ground split apart, cracks spreading like spiderwebs.

The latent magic beneath Tenrou Island erupted, surging toward Azuma, concentrating and compressing into a singular force, on the brink of explosion.

The entire island shook violently, as if caught in a massive earthquake.

Noel exhaled slowly, then raised both hands above his head, pressing them together in a composed motion.

"I acknowledge you, member of the Seven Kin of Purgatory."

His voice carried an air of finality.

"Tell me your name."

"Azuma... that is my name."

A bitter smile crept onto Azuma's lips, though the agonizing pain from the raging magic within his body distorted his expression slightly.

"Then, Azuma—let this attack bring an end to you."

Noel's voice was calm, yet absolute.

"[Holy Light Judgment—Sword of Damocles]!"

Countless rays of pure white light gathered above Noel, condensing into a single massive pillar of radiance that pierced the heavens.

The overwhelming energy compressed, shaping into a colossal sword that loomed over the battlefield, its presence alone suffocating.

Then—with a roar that tore through the sky—the sword descended.

Azuma's pupils contracted in sheer shock.

BOOM!

Blinding light engulfed the entirety of Tenrou Island.

All resistance was drowned in its radiance.

................

Grimore Heart Airship.

Having defeated Makarov, Hades sat in silence, as if waiting for something.

Suddenly, his expression changed.

His hand slipped, knocking over the wine glass.

He abruptly stood up, his gaze snapping toward Tenrou Island, his face filled with utter disbelief.

"Azuma... Rustyrose... have been defeated...?"
