Chapter 33 - Search

As soon the lightening blot erupted from Axel's sword the whole landmass changed in front of them. The wall was completely obiliterated along with sea behind the island. Now how can a sea be obliterated right.... There was no more sea behind the wall any longer. The water has completely vaporized leaving a trail of lightening bolt on that path.

Everyone except Axel was so shocked that all of them forgot to breathe. Erza had the most experience of seeing Axel's power but she was shocked too. She cannot even comprehend the difference between the two of them now. Erza, Ultear and Cana knew that Axel was very strong but they never imagined that the gap would be so huge. Ultear was behind Axel so she noticed that Axel was not even fazed in the slightest after unleashing magic of this caliber.

Everyone was brought out of their thoughts when the water returned to place where the lightening trail was left. The team of scientists were looking at Axel with fear in their eyes and mind. Axel stopped releasing his power and returned to his human form. This was the first time Axel had used this attack in this world and boy he was satisfied. He always wanted to execute this move since he saw it first time in the anime.

Axel: Now that is taken care of... We should keep moving forward.

Nobody replied Axel so he turned around to look at the other if they were alright or not. He saw that his girls and the scientists team along with the ship's crew were completely shocked. His girls were just shocked but he saw the rest had fear in their eyes.

Axel: Girls...?? Are you alright??

Ultear: Uhmm... Yeah. It was just completely shocking of what you did.

Axel: Yeah... This was the 1st time I used this attack... I was sooo excited.

Erza: You should not be so excited for causing destruction.

Axel: Hey... You are in no place to say that.

Cana/Ultear: You are same as him in destroying things.

Erza at least had the decency to turn away her face.

Cana: So what now?? The ship can't go forward for here due to the shallow water.

Axel: No... We won't take them. They will just become liability.

Ultear: Stefany bring your team down here....

Stefany brought her team down but she didn't knew how they will continue their way towards the island.

Axel: Ice Make: Chariot.

Immediately a huge chariot of ice appeared in front of them. Axel and his girls boarded the chariot and the scientists saw that and followed their lead. The chariot then rose in the air and Axel turned around.

Axel: Captain it was a nice experience meeting you and your crew but you have to head back now.

Captain: Don't worry and good luck.

After that Axel blasted away towards the island since he asked Vega to show him the way. Axel decided that the next time he met Cara he would thank her again for giving him Vega. Though he himself thought of wishing it but still Cara gave him the final result.

~AFTER COUPLE OF HOURS~

Axel's chariot was floating on the air in front of a huge island which was covered with spikes. The spikes were made of the same material of the wall.

Axel: So what with the wall and spikes.

Stefany: When we first knew about him we decided to use long range attacks to defeat him and kill him but that didn't work. He saw the attacks coming towards him from a long away. So we decided to try again later and build the wall to prevent him from entering Fiore...

Axel: That's really rich... Ok now let's first get done with the conditions. I want four times the designated reward.

The scientists turned completely pale.

Stefany: Not possible... We don't have that kind of money.

Axel: Not my business.

Stefany: We can't do that... We have to sell everything.

Axel: That's the idea... People like you should be treated like that.

Stefany: You can't judge us like that... We are not the one who did that.

Axel: You are the one who covered up the whole incident and you were planning to use mages to do your dirty job without even telling them where they were heading into.

Stefany:.... But we don't have that kind of money.

Axel: Ok.... Then triple the amount and that's non-negotiable.

Stefany: Fine... That's all the money we have but at least we don't have to disband and sell everything.

Erza: Ok... So let's head in.

Ultear: Wait... Stefany I want some information. How does that person steals other's power??

Stefany: If he touches you he will be able to steal your power. But if you are able to separate from him then the connection would be destroyed.

Ultear: Ok... Now we can head in...

Axel: Cana I am giving you the control of the chariot. You stay here and protect these guys.

Cana: But I want to fight too...

Axel: Nope... Not happening. Its too dangerous, after he is killed I will let you fight weak monsters.

Cana: Fine...

Axel then turns towards the island and raises his magic power.

Axel: Ice Make: Frozen Wasteland.

Immediately a certain part of the island was covered by thick ice and after that a huge roar was heard.

Axel: Ok.. There he is... Legs head there.

Erza immediately transformed into her flight armor and Axel picked up Ultear bridal style.

Ultear: Eep... What are you doing??

Axel: Just enjoy.

Axel and Erza started to raise up in the air and blasted off towards direction from where the roar came. Soon the three of them reached the frozen area and landed outside and decided to mask their magic power as much as possible.

Erza: So what now??

Ultear: First we observe... I don't want to attack blind. What do you say Axel??

Axel: You are right... Let's observe first. We don't need to head in blindly.

After that they entered the region and started to search for whatever the abomination they were looking for. Axel have already asked Vega for help but Vega was only able to mark a general area but Axel was grateful for that too. Erza soon found a cave and called Ultear and Axel. The three was them found that the cave was oozing foul magic power.

Erza: I am not the sharpest tool but I am definitely say that the abomination is here....
