She'd head quite a few rumors about that famed teleportation device, about how anybody who answered the call but wasn't in Crocus at the time of the attack... Fortunately, she was smart enough to travel beforehand, as she'd very much prefer to not be warped out of nowhere while busy doing gods know what. Hell, she could be in the shower whenever Grimoire decided to attack with their usual piss poor timing, which would ultimately force her to fight naked. Well, she wouldn't need to fight naked although her armor was a pretty close second... However, in that particular case, near nudity made her stronger.

Thankfully, she didn't have to deal with that kind of a hassle, but had a different kind of problem altogether. An eerie wind blew across the park the sculptress found herself in, and she promptly narrowed her eyes towards the walls, as if some foul, menacing air had drawn her attention.

"I have a bad feeling about this...", she thought out loud, and her thoughts were proven right in a matter of minutes. She had time to throw another two sword slashes into the air, a bead of sweat flowing down her face. Clad in her new outfit and bearing her new armor, Alisa was about as armed to the teeth as she could possible be, even Lumen had joined her for this, using her human form.

The cannon fire hit the walls with a deafening boom, catching the sculptress right in the middle of her training. Not a difficult feat to achieve, considering she'd been spending the better part of the last few days immersed in such training. Immediately, she hurried towards the citadel amidst the stampeding crowd, making full use of all the alleys whose existence she learned of in the last couple of days, as well as the time spent on Crocus last year. Even those didn't look as deserted as she'd have hoped.

Fortunately, she was already pretty close to Mercurius to begin with, and thus had no trouble getting there long before the actual raid followed the breach in the walls. Alisa had only one plan, to get as deep into the castle as she could. The guards already knew her once she volunteered - among many others - to join the defense force. She'd been screened, back ground checked, and whatever other kind of checks they could throw at her that didn't involve stripping naked. Rather reasonable of a condition considering the amount of firepower she could contribute to the defense... In the end though, such strict security created an almost foolproof barrier against enemy infiltrations.

Thus, she'd arrive at a grand hall where the royal guards awaited her. Arisa would be there already, having clearly arrived in a hurry, shortly before Alisa. As the sculptress had been closer, she could get there faster at a calm, walking pace, which also allowed the human form Litwick to follow about a meter or so behind her:

"Hello Ari~ Good to see you here already...", spoke Alisa, greeting her friend with a smile yet nonetheless taking a moment to admire her surroundings. She trusted not only Arisa but her power too, and knew she could make a difference here. Stereotypes often hint at the strongest ranks in dark guilds being filled by demons, werewolves, and other generally unpleasant creatures, and Arisa's magic held a distinctive advantage against most of them.

A truly grand hall occupied only by the two women and a couple of royal guards, about sixty meters long and forty meters wide. Most of the priceless furniture had been removed leaving naught but the tall, marbled halls. Alisa stood about fifteen meters from the large entrance which she'd entered from, roughly the same distance between both sides. Besides that entrance, there was another one just like it on the opposite side leading to gods knows where, which didn't feel relevant for now as enemies had no way of invading from that side.

For all their power though, only Alisa and Arisa might very well not be enough to take down their enemies assuming they were stuck dealing with the guy who killed either the masters of Lamia Scale or Blue Pegasus... Hopefully they'd have other allies they could count on, but regardless of that, Alisa kept her eyes peeled, head pivoting around as she listened for every noise looked for any unfamiliar entrance - including above and below - her left hand hanging close to Bakuzan on her left hip...

Without a word of warning Kon was shifted from his original location the church of Baska town to somewhere he had never been before. The transition was rapid, practically instantaneous causing him being able to remember little of what happened between the teleportation only recognising blasts of light and a power sense of magic radiating all around him. The sheer amount of energy required to teleport him alone would have been unthinkable. It seemed not just impossible but equally impractical to have teleported all the people that his contact had claimed would have answered the Royalty's call to arms. “Just where were they getting all that power to cast such a spells?” He thought to himself as he began to look around from his position kneeling on one knee with his fists clenched and resting on the vibrantly coloured carpet made of red and blue hues while his weapon, The Punisher lay by his right side. From what he could gather he was in a bedroom, the bedroom of immense wealth suggesting that he was either within a wealthy noble man's manor or the castle itself which he had been tasked with defending only moments prior back in Baska town.

One thing that became immediately obvious after taking a quick look around the room was an absence of something, that something in question being his clothes. Completely naked and strangely steaming, Kon rose to his feet and searched for some clothes. Rather than embarrassing himself in front of other defenders for the crown and finding it impractical to fight naked even if invisible Kon would go through a dresser in front of him in the hopes to find some clothes that would fit him. Several drawers within the dresser were filled with fine silk dresses and other woman's clothing which he skipped for obvious reasons, however opening the cabinet to the dresser he was met by an array of fine suits that were matching with his old standards as well as coats of different styles.

He was tempted to don on a complete suit however it would be impractical to wear given the lack of mobility it created for him. So instead Kon merely grabbed a nice cotton long sleeved shirt and a pair of grey pants before putting on a pair of well fitting dress shoes. Closing shut the cabinet, he took a quick look at himself, he was for the most part completely unrecognisable with his face having been scarred, his eyes having either changed colour or being replaced entirely as was the case of his right eye, His hair had been perhaps the most changed having turned from the golden colour to a pure white tone and becoming noticeable thinner, To his knowledge there would be few that would be able to recognise him with Alice having been the only person he had truly spoken to since the change, his voice alone would be needed to learn who he was.

Patting himself down and putting on the collar of his shirt properly he left the mirror and took hold of his weapon, The Punisher wielding it with a single arm much to his surprise. It appeared that Kon had somehow recently become significantly strong but for now as to avoid tiring himself, he would place the weapon's longest portion on his right shoulder clutching the weapon with his right hand in its handle while his left hand remained free for other things. Now armed and fully dressed Kon would finally leave the bedroom stopping at the door before leaving the room however, he took the coat left hanging on the door. Entering the area connected to the bedroom he was be met by half a dozen knights being commanded by a mage marching towards him from his right.

Halting in front of him the knights separated into two groups 3 in each to give the mage room to approach Kon. “Ah good, a defender you must have been selected to protect the interior of the castle, come with me, two more defenders are here as well to get ready for the attack, well I thought there were two?.” Happy to oblige the mage and the soldiers, he wove his left hand and replied. “Well lead the way.” After a long walk using a zig-zag method going through various rooms that were interconnected Kon was led into a large hall facing the left side of the throne portion pausing a bit in the hopes to spot the others who would be helping him to little avail with much of his vision being obstructed by pillars that were evenly spaced apart totalling to 10 each being roughly 1 meter thick for the entirety of them save for the bases on the roof and ground being 1.5 meters thick.

Unable to see anyone, Kon would make his way over to the throne in the hopes to greet the royalty and show that he was present for the upcoming conflict. “Your Majesty, your Highness.” Greeting the royalty nodding to both rather than bowing completely. “If you'll excuse me, we have work to do.” Nodding once he cast a spell immediately removing his visual presence from the hall leaving only his weapon visible to the naked eye. Noticing the pillars once more Kon made his way over to the second closest pillar to him by his left, some 20 meters away from the throne and 40 meters from the entrance itself. Crouching down while resting his cross on one of its short parts with his longest portion of his weapon pointing outward at the entrance to the all itself.

Zade casually strolled inside the halls of Mercurius. His entire attire was covered in splats of blood that had still not dried up. He held his sword in his right with a loose grip letting it drag across the marble floor leaving behind a trail of blood. The sound of his arrival echoed loudly throughout the halls of the castle. With a smirk on his face, he looked to his left and right searching for new targets. A servant quickly bolted out of one of the rooms trying to escape the ongoing onslaught. Zade paid no attention to him for he was only looking for proper enemies. His group, Zade's Marauders, were busy defeating the Rune Knights stationed inside the castle guarding the nobility. As he was nearing the grand hall another person bolted out of their room trying to escape but accidentally ran into Zade. It was a young lady trying to look for an escape route. The door behind her was still half open through which Zade could see children cowering behind it. She didn't seem like she belonged here in Mercurius. Most likely she was a commoner taken by a noble because of her beauty regardless whether she was married or not. "P-please, my children. We just want to leave this place. At least let them go so that they can see their father again." Zade wanted to ignore her and keep on walking, but he recalled Crowley's words as he saw the woman in front of him trembling with fear. He rose his left hand at pointed it at her. Then he turned his hand to the left, pointing it at the wall, and let out a pressure of immense mana to shatter it down completely. "Go through the west wing with your kids and remain in the library, no one is coming there. All the nobles are well guarded in their suites." The woman, still trembling with fear, looked at the door signing her children to get out and run with her. The moment she passed through the shattered wall, she paused briefly and turned around looking at Zade with tears in her eyes showing her gratitude. Zade could see her in the corner of his eyes but continued walking towards the grand hall. "Tch, Crowley got me going the extra mile here."

The moment Zade entered the grand hall, he could feel multiple worthy opponents guarding the nobility but only saw one. He could taste the fear of the nobility in the room. They all cowered and ran away from towards a different location through one of the doors in the back of the large hall. "Oh, got you guys on guard duty? Let us have some fun before I get to business with the ones behind you, shall we?" He sensed mana emitting from the staff against the wall and from the large cross against one of the pillars. "I'm gonna assume those two weapons are not normal weapons. Don't start floating around on me. I like to see the expressions of the ones I'm fighting against." Zade said as he looked around at the two items. He then turned his focus on the girl he could see. "While your friends play hide and seek, shall we battle to our heart's extent? Let's build it up nice and slowly towards the climax of death of either one of us." Zade said. He then turned his head around to the two items again. "Gonna warn you, once I catch you moving, I won't build it up nice and slowly with you two. No expressions means no actual battle but a one-sided massacre." Zade tightened the grip on his sword with his right hand and rose it towards the girl in front of him. His whole 2 meters of length with his long black hair often caused a sense of raw intimidation. His right eye was covered with an eye patch, but with his expertise of having fought constantly in the fray of battle as a soldier of the vanguard seeing with his left eye alone was more than enough for him. "Ladies first."

"So this is where the King lives?" the Fire Dragon Slayer mused, spitting crudely into an expensive looking vase.

The Fairy Tail mage had been in the middle of his morning rituals right before he realized he was being transported, but fortunately had managed to grab ahold of his armour before the process was complete. His transfer to Mercurius had not been an altogether unpleasant one, but it would have been nice if he had gotten some prior notification or warning; it wasn't as though they were in a rush as the fighting had not even officially begun yet, and due to that, the Fairy Tail mage had been able to take advantage of the Royals' hospitality for a good few hours before hurriedly making his way to the throne room when he got word of the breach.

He was sure footed in his movements, managing to reach the throne room from the door opposite where Zade made his entrance, hopefully undetected, but it mattered little as it looked like there were other capable defenders also stationed in the vicinity. With his muscular frame and commanding presence, Houren would have been an intimidating man to put at the front of the vanguard, and would have been just as effective at the rearguard. However, it looked like he met his match against this one eyed marauder, the lack of an eye only adding to the Grimoire Heart member's already daunting presence.

The element of surprise would have been useful in this instance, but the Fire Dragon Slayer decided that it was better to exert caution as he had shown up on the field of battle without a weapon, having been unable to grab one when he was transported. His inability to lock blades with this undoubtedly formidable opponent left a bitter taste in the Fairy Tail mage's mouth but today wasn't about him. He could still contribute to the protection of the Royal Family with his explosive fire magic but it was imperative that he maintain his distance. He would be most useful here, as far away from the invader as possible. The one eyed man beckoned for the woman nearest to him to make the first move, but whether it was out of begrudging gentlemanly politeness or a tasteless taunt, Houren did not know.

She waited beside the wall with her staff in her hand still. Her staff was against the wall looking as if it was perfectly just resting against the wall itself. Her golden eyes gazed towards the door where a man appeared. Her heart was beating fast with excitement for some reason as she saw the man. He was muscular, cute and ... he's about her height if not an inch taller than her. He had an eye patch over his eye and his hair was quite spiky as if he used a lot of gel.

Something was off though as he looked towards her and the cross weapon. He seemed to not like their little trick of playing hide-and-go seek neither and so she wondered to herself on rather or not to let go of the invisibility. 'This is dumb then...' she thought. This dude was actually attractive, but not as much as her Noel. She blushed and smiled, but didn't motion the staff. She took a deep breather as she let the spell leave its course through the staff and no longer was invisible. Her four wings were motioning back and forth in slow motion as she held her staff close to her. Her eyes gazed and concentrated on the man, ignoring whoever just walked in from the other door. Her blonde radiant hair shined by the glory lights of her staff and above (the ceiling lights).

''Alright big man.~'' she spoke alluringly and soft while giving a cute happy smile at him. She wasn't putting her guard down, but she wanted to at least speak to this guy. Something about him didn't seem honestly too bad, but he was still here to make the mission fail. She shrugged and saw what he wanted. This guy... he was lusting for battle. He was like that other part of her, the part of her that she couldn't quite explain to anyone if she tried. She stayed put with her staff in her hand in front of her like a statue of an angelic guardian of beauty and magic. ''I shall let you battle her first since I'd like to 'study'...well...you, first. Unless of course you rather make an addition.~'' Oh yes, Arisa loved to study people and if she could, she'll take every chance. This man wanted a battle - a slow one so why not let him have it before the possibility of death appears, for him at least. She was super interested in this being. Just who was he?! A demon perhaps or just a crazed human being who loves battle as much as a god of war? If he dares to attack though, she wasn't going to hold back.

"Ghastly."

“I find your lack of faith disturbing.” he would answer in reply. It was a single word, but with the time spent between them, he understood his concerns.

Phantom Lord was prepared for this moment. Shura was awaiting the call, as was Miah. How he would take it would be his choice entirely. There was no point in worrying about that man, he was well enough on his own. He was going to have to leave the nest and fly today. This was their time to shine.

His companion beside him. His attire was that of his same casual garments with his armor under. his leather jacket hid the sheen of the armor under his shirt, all that mattered now was someone willing to test him.

He found himself in an empty room, save for all of the furniture and papers. It must have been an office or something of the sort. It wasn't relevant to what the room was used for, Shura knew well enough where he stood. He was taken to this city for the sole reason to defend it. He was a wanderer for the moment, and now he would find himself in a maze of corridors and rooms. He would have to find the main hall.

This day, this attack, this whole event was unsettling. He was here to do his job, but most of all, he was here to avenge Cesare. He couldn't forget all that Grimoire Heart had taken from his own guild. While it had given him the opportunity to step up and lead his people, he could not ignore the fact that they even considered such an option, much less do it.

Whatever the reason was, Shura was beyond uncovering it. He was here not to save the capital, nor to protect this city. He was here to avenge his former guild master before him, and he would not allow them to get in his way again.

He would exit the room, only to hear echos of voices and struggles. One side held the banging of metal and grunts, possibly from the knights fighting with others. Whatever it was, it was far beneath him. If he was called here, taken to this place, he was transported here for a reason. He had to find the reason, and he was going to put an end to it.

"Ghastly?" Loki spoke again, this time floating closer, his view spinning, looking at all angles of the hall as Shura focused in what was before him. He held no smirk or grin. He had to agree with the discomfort.

"I've got a bad feeling about this." He spoke low, following the long hallway. he didn't want to agree with Loki at first, but something was off. This hallway, wherever it led, would house something more interesting. There would be mages when he got there. If he was transported here, so would be others.

The question was, who was he to target?

Ari scarcely even returned Alisa's greeting and instead turned invisibly right away. She'd gibe at her lack of manners if they weren't about to be in a combat situation, and speaking to her might ruin her cover. Thus, looked at the place she'd hidden in exactly the same way as she looked around, not letting her gaze linger any longer that any other place. Her body language betrayed no knowledge that someone might be hiding there, and the same applied for the next defender. Amidst her careful scouting of her surroundings, Alisa saw a blonde guy in the distance carrying a massive cross. She doubted he carried such a heavy looking item for stylish decoration or even spiritual solace, so it was most likely a weapon.

"Lumen, take cover...", she urged her partner, telling the human form litwick to hide between the nearest pillar. She wasn't as fast as Alisa, and had no way of avoiding fast moving spells as easily as the sculptress.

Between herself, Arisa and the mysterious blonde, she'd best lay low until most of the big spells had been exhausted. The blonde had disappeared in the meantime, hinting at the same strategy as Arisa. After this, they didn't have to wait much longer. Screams and explosions beyond the south entrance where Alisa had entered from heralded his arrival. A towering, wild looking man with a bloodied sword, freshly used on who knows how many...

"Hooo? You didn't really expect this to be a walk in the park now, did you?", Alisa smirked, as hearing about the man sensory abilities hardly put a dent in her poker face. She stared in the man in the eye without flinching, matching his bloodlust, hinting at naught but the sliver of the hatred she felt for these people... Such emotions would only get in her way, so she'd save them for Lance's killer and the head of Grimoire Heart.

Whether this guy might be either of them, or if they were even two separate people... That remained to be seen. He definitely looked strong... She felt her fists tingle at the sight of him, and had he not been sent here to, well, butcher everybody, she might have tried him out in a sparring match. To make matters worse, the fair number of defenders made this a poor environment for one-on-one fights, where a single ally standing too close to the action would leave him liable to getting hit by friendly fire.

"Massacre huh....", her brow twitched at the threat on her best friend, yet she still kept her cool, "If you insist... I'll indulge your bloody little dance.", keeping an eye on her foe the whole way, she reached for the blue brace on her left bicep and closed and three clasps, transforming amidst a cloud of steam that whipped her long raven hair behind her...

She could never get used to those three needles used to draw her blood, but instead focused on the feeling of raw power, the unleashed strength of fusing with Life Fibers. Alisa wasn't one to issue threats, and for the most part, preferred not to reveal her hand until she could use it to secure victory. That transformation, however revealed the Blue Pegasus stamp on her midriff, announcing her personal quarrel with Grimoire Heart better than any words ever could.

"Then, make sure to pay attention, Ari.", she'd gibe at her friend, without drawing her eyes away from her target

Yet against someone who'd simply waltzed in here despite the royal guard, she knew fully well that without one of these trump cards she'd likely not survive to use all the others. With the man still at the entrance and Alisa fifteen meters in, said distance worked perfectly against an opponent whose abilities she knew nothing about, getting any closer before hand presented no advantage whatsoever.

"Now that I've shown you mine... The least you can do is show me yours~", Alisa dared right back nonchalantly, resting her left hand on her hip, right next to her sword. She'd let him transform if he had anything to show for, but if he didn't, she'd indulge him and start the fight with a bellowing, ear splitting Kiai, "HAAAAAAAAA!!!"

Not unlike a Slayer's breath spell, a magic circle formed in front of the sculptress' mouth and shot forth a spiraling storm of piercing diamonds, more than enough to poke a lesser man full of holes.

Assuming he hadn't moved, he'd be at about fifteen meters away from Alisa; at that distance, her spell would reach about six meters wide in three quarters of a second. If he had moved in either direction, Alisa would instead shout towards here he was moving depending on his speed, relying on her extensive experience with speed to aim the center of her vortex to where the man would be, give or take half a meter. She'd keep her motions fluid at all times, ready to adjust her actions if he were to shoot some manner of magic right at her. She'd shift her weight between both legs on an even stance; her body loose and fluid, ready to spring to action at any point at her foe's action, or sooner if something obscured her sight of him.

Resting his firearm upon the pillar he was now able to get a clearer view of the centre of the hall as well as the main entrance itself. In front of it stood a familiar looking woman who after a quick glance showed incredible power physically and magical. Given that her back was to him and she was facing the entrance itself, this indicated to him that she was one of the defenders that he had been told about. Thankful that he would not be fighting her, Kon continued looking around the rest of the room to identify another individual still incredibly strong but not as much as the other showing immense intelligence to make up for it. The first woman was easy to spot is in front of him quite some distance, the other not so much as she seemed to be covered in an invisibility spell that hid her from the naked eye but nothing could escape his gaze with his Millenium Eye.

With the quick assessment he was able to learn almost everything about their abilities save for their race should they have one or their magic outside of their element. The three of them would be a formidable group to fight against however in the line of war anything could happen. The total number of defenders that would be helping protect the royalty and the rest of the nobility was something that he was not aware of which was a slight issue as he could easily mistake friend from foe with him taking a more shoot before asking questions stance.

The next individual to enter the hall was significantly different, a sense of dread and hostility radiated from his very pores with a dominating presence to him as he walked into the room itself.
He was a rather tall individual whose face alone showed the mark of a true fighter, battle-tested which frankly frightened the hell out of the knight. Raw power was one thing but experience let you use that power properly and to its fullest.

Despite all of the experience and power that the man as was suggested from his appearance and from Kon taking a look at him with his Millenium Eye, He appeared otherwise more interested in talking with them rather than fighting at least for now. First directly communicating with the woman directly in front of him only referring to Kon as well as the other person equally invisible insultingly but understandably so while also threatening them due to their underhanded tactics. His counterpart recognising that there was little merit in remaining invisible cast away her own invisibility just as Kon did mere seconds afterwards.

“What’s the point of being invisible when there’s this huge weapon that gives away my position…?” He thought to himself as he watched the individual receiving replies not just from the lead woman but too the now visible one. Kon meanwhile was flamboyant with his response as he left his crouching position and began to approach the man closing the distance between them to a mere 15 meters, now using the closest pillar to the entrance as cover. “So you want some fun?, Sure sounds good I haven’t had some for a while, nice and slow you say? okay happy to oblige just a quick question what’s your name?” His weapon remained extended out for gun usage using his only right hand in case he was attacked mid-walk while his left hand remained free for casting as well. "Your demeanour suggests an intimidating one, not something as simple as Bob, but who knows I could be wrong and your name could be Bob."

Now 15 meters away from the man he would be able to use significantly more tools in his arsenal particularly lower ranking ones. “I guess my summons will work as decoys at least?” He thought to himself as he rose up his hand to bring forth just a single summon Adriel essentially a waste of mana in these types of conflicts but it could work as something to distract the man. The summon itself would appear in an instant by the woman’s right side facing their opponent with 2 meters separating both it and the woman.

Having the large companion being on the right side of the woman was beneficial for Kon as he could keep his focus on hitting the man’s bare chest with perhaps one of the weakest rounds he could use without changing to automatic mode. "I call this big guy Adriel, not exactly what you'd call the smartest tool in the shed but he can take a hit or two..."

The distance that separated the two would result in an incredibly travel time for spells equal to just ¾ of a second unless the man had moved otherwise. If the man approached further within 10 meters of him, Kon would need to take a more aggressive stance sending round after round if the opposite occurred Kon would fire more hard-hitting rounds with more lethality though, from the looks of the man, it was unlikely that a bullet would put him down so easily, with both options being noticeable by either the time it takes to strike him or just simply them disappearing before reaching the man entirely.

At last, Zade felt as if this could get finally interesting. He sensed someone at the end of the hall nearing the little theater of death that would soon take place. Zade was also pleasantly surprised that the other two decided to drop their little act and reveal themselves. It seemed that the staff was being wielded by a woman and the enormous cross by a male. The girl quickly let Zade know that she was willing to give Zade a one versus one against the girl in front of him, but he was not interested in mundane slaughters. "Nah, come here and entertain me, girl. Or stay observing me till the time comes to serve as a better opponent. Whatever works in your favor."

The girl in front of him was quite talkative, like Zade, and showed no signs of fear standing in front of him. It seemed as if he stumbled upon the right bunch here in this grand hall. "That thing, it doesn't sense human. Interesting, could it be that it is strong? I guess not since you made it go cower behind a pillar." Zade quickly glanced over what appeared to be a boy. "Is it that you care about it? Am I going to make you more interesting if I slaughter it in front of your eyes? Tch, if you don't amuse me I'll just try that." Zade, still pointing his sword at the girl in front of him, chuckled for a second.

Luckily, the girl in front of him was willing to indulge Zade's request and used a transformative spell to enhance her abilities. While her corporal structure had not changed, her gear changed entirely into something more suitable for warfare. It reminded him of some of the powerful warriors he fought in Talaz Lagar. He had seen many suits but not one like hers before. "The respect you've shown me by indulging me will not go unnoticed. When the time comes, I will give you an honorable death, girl."

Meanwhile, the blond indicated that he was willing to satisfy Zade's needs as well. What pleased Zade the most was him witnessing a summoner again after such a long time. The blond conjured a creature taller than Zade next to the girl while he himself remained next to the pillar. Zade wondered for a brief moment whether this summoner played a supportive role with his summons or if he was actually capable of battling himself. Most of the summoners he had seen in the past used their summons to play a role from a long range, but a little collective out there fought alongside their summons side by side.

Zade got the answer to his question rather fast when the man turned his cross into a long rage assault weapon. Alongside with the woman he released a barrage of projectiles at him. With a smile on his face, Zade tightened the grip on his sword and began to move it around to try to deflect as many projectiles as possible when the assault began. The projectiles hitting Zade's sword caused a sound which resonated throughout loudly the grand hall. Most of the projectiles ricochet of Zade's sword through the hall except for a few. Zade got a scar on his cheek which started to bleed immediately, as well as a few projectiles causing damage to his robes and body leaving behind minor cuts.

The moment the assault ended Zade's sword was pointing the summoned creature. Zade's handling and aim transitioned from defensive to offensive fluidly. He quickly dashed from his position to penetrate his sword deeply into the creature. A powerful blast released from Zade's sword trying take down summon as he attempted to penetrate the creature at the same time. The damage from his powerful penetration along with blast would most likely obliterate it.

As he dashed forward, Zade move his left hand which was still free underneath his right arm which was extended forward. He aimed his left hand at the girl next to the summon and released a small blast to get her away from him as he struck down the behemoth. "Sayonara!" Zade yelled vigorously the moment his sword penetrated and blasted through the creature. If the succeeded, he'd stand at the summon's location while facing the girl which stood next to it.

Well, it's all kicked off now.

There might've been a short conversation, or at least some sort of lead-in before the fighting began but given the distance between the Fairy Tail mage and the rest of the other defenders, he hadn't been able to participate in any of the prematch banter before shots were fired, and, subsequently deflected. Houren was mightily impressed by Zade's display of flair and skill in diverting attacks from two mages simultaneously, but he did not just stand there, jaw dropped and looking impressed as the man from Grimoire Heart swung his sword around with his unprecedented dexterity. Instead, he took this opportunity, while Zade was dealing with fragments of crystal and bullets, to get closer to the battlefield; the Fire Dragon Slayer had considered taking cover behind the closest pillar to him on his right, but he realized this would probably be a very tasteless tactic to assume. His opponent was of such a quality that he was probably already aware of Houren's presence - if he hid, he would be selling himself short.

The Fire Dragon Slayer began to run as the deflecting began, with Houren taking note of the shallow cuts that Zade was suffering from the defenders' attacks, although he shrugged them off as though they were the most insignificant of nuisances. His defensive swordplay was certainly masterful, but it wasn't nearly as impeccable as it seemed. If they overwhelmed him with a flurry of offensive spells, they could defeat him as long as one of the attacks ended up being decisive. "Get away from there!" he shouted, while still running, with the magisterial voice that the heavens had so kindly blessed upon him, and inhaling as soon as the warning had been given. Zade had chosen the summoner's conjured familiar as his first target, and the Fairy Tail mage was under the impression that the defenders should be counting their lucky stars that this so happened to be the case, that they would not be on the receiving end of the madman's blade.

Zade could have easily have gone after the girl as opposed to the summoning, and Houren had the nagging feeling that he would have gotten her as well. Still, just because he had attacked the summoning instead did not mean that she was necessarily out of the danger zone. The swordsman's free hand and subsequent attack using the aforementioned free hand was not something that Houren could see from his position, but he had already given up the summoned creature for dead once he realized it had been targeted; the Fire Dragon Slayer intended to blow the creature away with one of his explosive fire attacks, and hopefully he would be able to take Zade along with it as well - his warning for the woman to pull out from her current locus was because he did not want her to get caught in the explosion.

"Try and cut this!" he came to a stop once his attack was in range and opened his mouth to unleash his own special roar attack.

For this offensive, the Fire Dragon Slayer aimed at Adriel, knowing full well that he might earn the ire of the ire of the summoner for destroying one of his creations. His hope was that the explosive following the initial attack would deal some significant damage to Zade, but at the cost of the summoning. The Grimoire Heart mage was a man of the sword, a melee fighter who got up close and personal with those that he fights, so even if he managed to destroy Adriel, Houren could still say with some degree of confidence that he was aiming his attack at the right place. His main concern was friendly fire, but they didn't call him a specialist in dealing collateral damage for nothing.

Her eyes of pupiless golden suns gazed upon Zade and never left him out of her sight. In the sake of the voice within darkness, she seemed to have taken an interest in this battling thirsty man. 'Mmmm, perhaps we should have a little taste of his blood too.~' thought the darker toned voice that spoke in Arisa's mind. In Arisa's foreshadow the Alter Arisa was swooning over the man, but this wasn't going to take over her concentration. 'You affected me once by letting our friend see you eat a woman's flesh! Making him believe it was me, but not this time. You're not controlling me.' she thought back within seconds. In that time span, Zade spoke his reply to her. He was letting her join if she wished or to perhaps 'study' him.

At first she chose to inspect him as he talked towards Alisa and then at the other man who had blonde hair. Who was he anyways? She watched his eyes, movements and waited for the perfect moment to study no longer. 'He sure is dreamy.~' thought the Alter Ari. She smirked alluringly with her full, glossed lips. Her heart was beating with adrenaline as she simply waited for action. Her grip on her staff was tight, but her hands were sweating as the actual Arisa was nervous, but at the same time ready.

After the chatting that Zade was so kindly in bringing, the 'battle' began. Attacks were coming from the other direction in which she stood as the blonde attacked Zade with whatever gun it was as bullets came out. Truly, that didn't do much as Zade used his sword to deflect all that he could giving that he did most of them. Her eyes saw a scratch on his cheek, slowly blood began to drip and slid along his cheek. Something within her felt hungry, thirsty and ready to attack. 'No... Not yet.' she thought in her mind, mentally shaking her thoughts. Arisa had to wait and soon it was finally the time to start.

Her eyes concentrated on Zade and his movements whilst he then charged an attack on the summon at the same times as a spell at Alisa. Knowing Alisa due to their closeness and many battles together she knew what Alisa would do. Rather or not she was going to do what she thought Alisa may do was in question, but it was a good time to start something herself. Swiftly she was ready to spell out of her staff as she targeted towards Zade. The man from behind was quite the type in letting people know his existence whilst he then attacked with a spell while going forward. He had enough time to get close while Zade defended, but probably not to stop the attack on the summon, whose laser passed by him by a couple meters.

'No better time than now perhaps.' he thought and swiftly looked forward as she let out a lazor out of her staff towards Zades location, the same time as Houren shot his fireball. Being quite the mage and magic. She knew that spells have the same speed, therefore timing it to where both the slayer's spell and her spell would hit with less than half a second between each other, both spells coming from different angles. If Houren chose not to fire - if he saw the summon destroyed, Arisa instead fired hers right away. Rather it hit Zade or the ground where he stood, an explosion of eight diameters was set off. She hoped that Alisa did exactly what she thought she'd do. Finally in hopes that the spells hit, she was prepared for anything rather it be defensive or offensive. Zade was a wild man so the possibilities were everywhere.

Apologies on delay, health issues arose.

Shura Ranzu

With the entirety of his body, he would slam into the large doors. There was two ways into that room, and this was the internal entrance. Whatever was on the other side of these doors, was a war. It would only take a single loss, and his entire work would be lost. This was his stand, and he had to set aside all of his feelings for the betterment of Phantom Lord. And for now, it was putting an end to anyone of that forsaken guild.

He would push open those doors and find several mages screaming and yelling, all to face a single man. It would be easier it seemed, to find the man he was looking for. With his might and a heart full of rage he would begin to run to the collective mages. He would take his position behind them all. As mush as he wanted to end this in one fell swoop, he knew well enough that whatever they were going to unleash, would have to last a while.

It wasn't known how much was done to him, nor how much these mages had shown, but for now he would have to keep all of his cards hidden. his magic was by no means safe to use in an accurate sense. Any spell he used would put them all at risk.

Of course, hr could have shot his laser at the man, but to get it past them all, and hoping some invisi-mage wasn't there, was enough to make him care.

It wasn't about Phantom Lord anymore. It was about doing the right thing. Here, he had to make sure that one foe fell. For now, all of these knights and mages would his friends. For now, he would protect them.

He would open his palm, only for a seeming endless supply of bugs to flow from him. They would take in the area around him, sticking to all around him. He had to be aware of all that was around him. There was no toying around.

The second a threat would near, he would unleash all of his spells. There was no holding back.

There was no second battle.

The other hidden fighter also revealed himself and moved closer, taking about the same distance from the enemy as Alisa did, but cleverly choosing a different angle. This way, all of them together could put pressure on this giant of a man when the time came to fight, without hitting each other. As for the blond's revealed magic, Alisa noted he'd need extra space for his summons. Conjuring angels hardly looked ordinary, but neither did she know if this magic was unique or simply rare... Nor did she know Alice's fiancé beyond an appearance he no longer had. It gave her a nudging suspicion, but no real conclusion towards his identity.

But it seemed three opponents were not enough for the Zade, as he soon proceeded to threaten her partner. A cheap provocation... He needn't bother, for Alisa would have shown him no kindness either way, as he'd soon find out:

"Don't get ahead of yourself.", without losing her faint, frigid smile, Alisa saw nothing but the enemy and whatever ways she could possibly bring him down. He needn't worry about amusement as she'd give him no time to start chasing her faraway partner. It took more than threats to break her cool, but she acknowledged them regardless; she lacked the luxury of fooling around with this guy.

Granted, Lumen in her current state was far too weak to have any say here, at least so long as they all stood at full power. But even the weakest of cards can settle a game if played at the right moment, and Alisa drilled this notion into the clever Litwick a long time ago. She'd keep her distance so long as her presence irrelevant in battle.

Before long, the defenders opened fire, and she got to watch the skilled swordplay blocking all the individual projectiles. A single stray bullet got through, enough to draw blood, but too meaningless to actually hurt.

Heart pounding, adrenaline filled her blood at the thrilling sight only the strongest of foes provided: Accidentally or otherwise, Finn's training had began leading Alisa away from that assassin mindset of never tackling foes whose strength she couldn't surely overcome, and instead relish her natural fighting spirit against an overwhelming enemy.

But as the man blocked all that with his sword and dashed with speed matching hers, Alisa understood: Anything short of killing intent, surgical precision behind every attack would result in her own death. As he charged and fired a spell at her, she quickly stepped backwards diagonally, roughly Northeast in direction. Instead of turning around, she maintained the distance between herself and her opponent with multiple dashing steps - relying on well honed footwork - moving between one to two meters with each one.

This allowed her to dodge the single oncoming projectile without great difficulty, as it flew about four meters away from her; while keeping her eyes on the opponent, ready to react swiftly if needed. With a clear idea of his speed, position, distance, and direction, she telegraphed the lunge on the summoned angel, but made no motion to prevent it; instead seeking to witness his power with her own eyes and better grasp the enemy's level.

Not that she'd let him pull it off without taking damage in return... As he moved closer and the sculptress moved away, she focused a single point about three meters south of the angel, and when the right time came, conjured her own spell with an upwards flick of her left wrist, "There...!"

Though she could never predict the laser, as the killer locked his eyes onto his prey, Alisa timed her spell so it would hit him straight after he struck the angel. Right then, a four meter cluster of blunt, crystalline stalagmite erupted from the ground, centered on the focused point and likely striking Zade lest he change directions at the last minute. She aimed her AOE a bit further back so as to not end up hitting Adriel, partly to see whether it might survive otherwise... Which proved irrelevant when the rumbling blast upturned the stone floor, plowing through up to nearly half the length of the hall, leaving no trace of the angel had it been caught inside...

Guess there's no kill like overkill...

"Wow... Impressive.", she mumbled, eyes widening in a split second. Clearly astonished, not frightened, but definitely thrilled, Alisa felt some annoyance at not precisely measuring the swordsman's physical power, "If you want something done right..."

By the time he finished thrusting his big sword through the angel and shooting all over it, Alisa stood 12 meters from Zade and 10 meters from the east wall. Whether or not he defended against Alisa's Stalagmites, the Dragon guy's Fireball came immediately afterwards, and she knew Arisa would strike soon after.

Familiar with Ari's 'artillery angel' fighting style and spells, Alisa inhaled deeply, preparing another Diamond storm. Mustering all her experience, coordination and reflexes, the sculptress shouted another Kiai, the instant before the blond angel's laser hit either Zade or the ground underneath him.

It wasn't perfect, but she managed a narrower window of time than between Arisa's follow up to the Dragon Slayer; after the angel's light explosion ended, Zade had roughly a third of a second for defense lest he end inside another cone of cutting diamonds, coming straight towards him and reaching about 4 meters width at his current position. Any narrower and the crystal mage risked her own spell hitting the Seraph's, turning the deadly crystals into harmless dust in its wake...

If the cross wielding blond and the other new guy could keep this up, they could steadily force the mysterious enemy to reveal more of his abilities, and retaliate accordingly in the decisive moments to come.

His fears had become reality with their opponent having simply cast aside his bullets as if they were nothing which, to be frank, was entirely what they were in comparison to his more powerful rounds from this gun. Perhaps most alarming however was his ability to decimate his summon, Adriel with just a slash and a beam of light, which would reduce the number of options he had available to him with it suggesting the fate of the other summons would be the same as Adriel.

Clearly, the man didn’t respect him enough at least in regards to how much power he could truly unleash made obvious by him ignoring Kon and simply focusing on the woman instead by sending an attack at her to little avail. “The woman…, what a terrible name, hmm something a bit more distinguishing might help, I guess I’ll just give her one… Candy…, That’ll do yeah.” In all honesty, he didn’t know why he chose that name but it just seemed to fit given her attire.

It seemed others had come to the conflict albeit it slower then he would have preferred with the woman by the wall finally attacking their opponent while another figure out of view assaulted the sword-wielding man with a flame-based shot using the destruction of Kon’s summon to their advantage. Kon would opt to do the same having recognised his attention likely would have been still fixed on Candy given his attitude not just to her but the rest of the group. Being offered such an opportunity as this, Kon wielding his rifle in both hands focused down his target who would have been engulfed in not just flames but also the cleansing light of an angel, one after the other.

Still by the pillar, Kon waited patiently for their attacks to subsided but refrained from waiting on Candy’s attack to begin shooting immediately and without hesitation aiming at his foe’s upper torso, which would likely prompt retaliation but he hoped that the follow through from his scantily clad comrade would be enough to daze the spiky-haired and ignore the round, Kon shot at him thus allowing him to skirt back from the conflict and rely on the pillar for cover.

He had considered using the rockets that were also a part of his weapon however they would prove impractical in this instance with the damage not only being at the targeted location but having a significantly high chance of either harming himself or one of his allies in the process. For now, though he would have to wait and see how the man would respond to the bombard of the four defenders.

As Zade completely obliterated the blond's summon and took its place, he had already managed to create a gap between himself and the girl standing next to it. Before their encounter, all that could be heard throughout the halls of Mercuries were loyal warcries and screams of agony. Now that Zade had found his foes, that sound had been replaced with something he actually preferred to hear. Loud blasts and clashes caused the entire grand hall to tremble and the pillars to shake from their foundation. Pieces of debris started to crumble from the ceiling and fall around the grand hall at random next to everyone in there.

Zade, who had defeated his first foe, real or not, was prepared for what was coming next. After taking down the summoned beast, he placed his sword on the back of his neck and took in all the incoming hits. His robe took most of the damage and got destroyed after the exchange. He now only had a few pieces of fabric left hanging around his body, still covering him up mostly but no longer offering defensive qualities. Now that his robe had been destroyed, his powers had increased. The robe served as weighted training gear which decreased his potential to make it more interesting for himself in combat.

With a few scars more across his body, he remained stationary. "Can you guys get serious now?"

As though their attacks were more of a minor inconvenience than a threat, Zade remained stationary and took them all on head on, losing his robes in the process. In an unexpected twist of fate, the loss of the man's robes only amplified his already domineering and intimidating presence, as though he had become more powerful from having his robes destroyed by their onslaught of magical spells. The defense force had managed to add a few new additions to Zade's already impressive list of battle scars, but he seemed unfazed for the most part; at the very least, his confidence was completely intact as he urged them to increase their firepower. It wasn't the Fire Dragon Slayer's way to respond to such taunts, but this opponent had just demonstrated a feat of endurance that he had never before seen in his life. They needed to take him out quickly, or else he would begin to cut them down one by one, slowly diminishing their prospects for victory until there was none left. Besides, nobody agreed to a five on one fight unless they were either a madman or still had an ace up their sleeve, and from what they've seen of Zade thus far, it was probably the latter.

The proximity of his allies to the Grimoire Heart mage rendered it unfeasible for the Fire Dragon Slayer to utilize one of his trump cards, and there was no point in crippling his own magical energy reserves by pulling out one of his guild's signature techniques so early in the fight. At the very least, their opponent no longer had the luxury of simply tanking spells now that his robes had been destroyed, and he would need to maneuver his body carefully to avoid attacks. The Fairy Tail mage, still 15 meters away from Zade and looking at him from a slight angle, decided to take advantage of the fact that Zade was now surrounded as opposed to the worst case scenario where they all stood together like bowling pins ready to be struck. Mana quickly flowed from Houren's spiritual core to his hands, causing them to ignite in a display those southerners who worshiped the sun would be proud of. He slammed both hands together, combining both flames to create a larger flame that would be sent in Zade's direction; he did not resist the slight recoil that came with shooting flames out of your hands, going with the flow as he dashed backwards to take cover behind one of the pillars, the one in the second row on Zade's left.

''This damned guy..."

He moved his body so that it was touching against the pillar, and moved across it until he was no longer visible from his opponent's vantage point. He was fully confident that his allies would add to his fire spell to create yet another onslaught of offensive magic that would hopefully be able to knock Zade down a notch or two. The pillar was unstable, but it still offered him a small degree of protection for now.

She still had her staff in her hand, gripped tightly as she gazed at Zade. 'What a hunk.' Alter Ari thought as she licked her lips and gazed alluringly at the man. Arisa's heart started to beat quite fast as her body felt heated. She saw some people try some things and was quite pleased that her own spell hit him and Alisa on the other hand wasn't harmed. Her golden eyes that were like suns gazed more at him, but more in surprise as something felt different and the top of his outfit were in shreds. The guy who was at first running towards Zade was now beyond a pillar that was quite unstable, but stable enough to hold its own ground.

'I must give him more....~' a voice spoke in Arisa's thoughts.

'More... like the heavens would want.' it spoke again.

'Yes... more like he wants.' it spoke lastly before something more happened. Arisa felt funny as she looked at Zade's body and listened to him wanting more damage to himself. Her mentally blacked out as something became anew. Her eyes turned black and her lips smirked. This wasn't Arisa, but it was her at the same time as she was a different her. She clapped her staff into her other hand as both of her hands held it together in the middle of her as she stood straight. Her left shoulder shrugged, left hand left the staff as she caressed her own left cheek while tilting her head into that very cheek. ''Oh I must know your name.~'' she started to say darkly and exotically. She didn't know his name, too bad. Her wings started to flap and then disappear into nothingness as she materialized them onto her back once more.

Her left arm dangled against her side and quickly back on the staff's shaft. The people around her -- she didn't care what they were doing as this man affected her own being. She felt semi-ignored by him though. 'I'll teach people to ignore me as I gaze upon them!' she thought and tapped her staff against the floor softly which caused echo sounds through the room and halls.

At that moment she channeled swiftly of her thoughts of spells that she wished to cast into the staff and happily twirled once in a dancing motion and when that was done she smiled. The staff shined so brightly as it lazored out a beam of beautiful golden light after another - three total. It went and targeted Zade in hopes that it was semi-enough for the hunk-a-love.~ ''Oh.~ Let me see your beautiful blood. The pretty color of red...'' she sung happily and her casual exotically tone that soon turned deeper toned, but still womanly at the last sentence. First one was a beam that pierces (which would land about a half a second after Hourens), second one does bludgeoning and explodes once again with a beautiful light of bliss as the third one is like the first one yet it goes towards the right instead of the left. Ari didn't care if anyone got it - as long as Zade got hit himself... unless it was Alisa of course. If that hunk of a man decided to take action or if an ally messes up, she would take action accordingly in her own way.

Shura Ranzu

He was late to the party, as always. He would watch the spells land on the long haired man, only to destroy his clothing. He ate up all of the spells and attacks that were thrown at him. It also seemed as if everyone was focused on their own survival to notice each other. This would serve to both his advantage and his weakness. He had to figure who could do what, and fast.

With his fireflies, he was only granted an extra layer of perception. With his gastly, he was only granted a few more options to his already emptied tool set. Before he could think about which to use first, the building itself would start to crumble, pieces falling around him. He begun to follow suit with the others taking up a pillar between him and the naked man.

Before he would duck and await the next best opportunity to strike, he would open his mouth, as if to yell, only to have a bring light beam from his mouth. A laser would shoot from his mouth to strike at the man. At his distance, it would be one of the few spells he could reach him with.

He would take cover, his palm facing the man. Wherever he would strike from he had to be ready. He had to be cautious, there was no telling what could be made of, even the tiniest of errors before this man.

He was not armed like the rest of the people in the room, for now he had his magic, and that alone. It would be foolish to cast his spells unless he knew he could land them all. If he could get close enough, he could unleash them all, just as anyone else could. But with that proximity, so could that man . . .

One by one all these focused attacks rained down on the enemy, with a coordination such that even the mightiest of foes had little choice but defend... Only he didn't. She clicked her tongue at the total absence of reaction on the behemoth bladesman's part, as if their attacks naught but tickle him. Instead, they tore through his armor and visibly injured his body, though he scarcely paid attention. That's alright... Impervious to pain he may be, but if he could be injured, he could be beaten. For all his skill, this was no god among men, merely one who'd broken past their limits long ago. An achievement Alisa envied if nothing else:

"Weighted clothing, huh? How vainglorious...", she commented, eyes locking onto the heavy material that once belonged to his armor as it hit the ground with a thudding louder than any of their spells, cracking it visibly. To wear this against five mages felt like a greater taunt than his next words, yet the proud Alisa held onto her cool and simply smiled, gaze narrowed as she locked them onto his and transformed once again, "In that case... I'll show you something nice.", Alisa tapped her foot, clenching both fists, channeling mana. At this point, her magic power seemingly rivaled the enemy's in density, but at that moment, it flow out freely, covering the sculptress' entire body as she chanted the name of a foreign deity, "Vajradehā"

Even the sword on her waist had acquired a crystalline coating, just enough to protect it from the adverse effects of her spell, while the sensory spell she'd stealthily activated at the same time allowed her to better read both ally and enemy movements with keener detail - as well as dodge falling debris if needed. With her body now a pale adamantine form, she watched as the fire slayer initiated round two before vanishing from her field of vision and taking cover, just like the blonde with the big flashy gun.

Arisa's onslaught came right after, three beams fired in a quick burst; where either could secretly explode. Thus, she shortened the distance between herself and the enemy to slightly over eight meters, using those same quick, short dashes to either close the gap, or sidestep the mighty swordsman should he attempt to approach her. With her sensory abilities, she detected the faintest vibrations and allies whose positions she couldn't clearly see, giving her an idea of their locations.

Her chosen position placed her as close as she could without potentially getting hit by the angel's explosive spells at their peak size, or stand in her allies' line of fire; though she'd maintain this distance from both Zade and Arisa's projectiles should they miss their mark: Having seen them in action when fighting with and against her, Alisa knew the closest she could stand without taking damage from Ari's biggest attacks.

The time it took the light spells to either hit or miss sufficed for Alisa to glance at the blue fire mage - quickly taking cover a bit further away than his orange fire counterpart - who soon fired an spell to hit slightly under three quarter seconds after Arisa's last one.

"Boys hide and girls fight huh? So much for chivalry...", noted Alisa, rather amused

That said, his spell looked like just a thin fire beam, but she wouldn't fooled... Thus, Alisa used her closer position to Zade and unleashed her own attack, channeling all the power from her new form, whipping her clenched left and shooting a swift beam in the form of pure, rattling white chains: straight forward it her foe stood still, or ahead of his trajectory otherwise, to trip him over and halt his advance.

If successful, she'd strike him strike within in two fifths of a second, ideally mere instants before the fire mage's blast hit or missed: If it exploded on impact with Zade's chest, it might destroy Alisa's chains but only after they struck him at least once, grabbing his right calf as they damaged a fair portion of that leg.
