As we were speaking, the people charged at bringing Makarov to Porlyosika came back. From what they told Master was in a critical stage, but Granny had told them that he can be healed. Hearing that everyone let out sighs, showing that all of them were extremely tensed about the situation.
As we were making the next plans, suddenly the earth began to quake.
'Dann it, it's here' I thought as I recognised what was coming.
As everyone went out, we saw a giant castle with legs coming towards us. Thankfully, it came from the direction where there were less residents of the city. I can't believe after blatantly trying to kidnap a member of our guild to earn money by blackmailing, they are still trying to make sure the that the civilians are not affected by this attack. It made the job easier for us. Though I don't know what I should feel about it.
"What the hell is that"
"Is that Phantom?, are they crazy to do this"
"Are they going to crush us or something"
The guild members started panicking and began to prepare their magic for whatever they are going to throw at us.
Suddenly the castle opened up a bit and a cannon came out of it and started charging up.
"This is bad, EVERYONE GET DOWN" Erza shouted out and went towards the front to activate herculean Armour.
I looked at her and felt something wrong. She then materialised the shield and then a large magic circle formed which will concentrate all the attack that fall up on it on to Erza's shield. But this time it was smaller than I thought it would be.
Then it struck me. Erza just came to Magnolia today; she had also depleted her magic in the carriage we were travelling in and then the later battle might have taken more of it and the time right now might not have been enough for her to recover more of her magic.
This was bad, right now none of the people here had the capability to use magic to stop the blast. Ultear had gone to Porlyosika along with Ur. This leaves almost no one except one.
Me.
I know that Jason will not put that detailed description unless I had some use for it and now I knew. The catalyst and the direction I should divert the armour towards, it became very clear right now.
"This is going to hurt"
I mutter as I step in front of Erza.
"Karna, WHAT ARE YOU DOING GET BACK" Erza shouted out while trembling, looks like materialising just that much of it is taking too much out of her. This way she won't be able to handle the blast and survive.
"Don't worry, I got this" I said as I saw Gray holding back Natsu who was running towards us.
I quickly took down the chromium-coloured sword with chains on its handle and shouted out the chant.
"Arise the Dragon of Calamity, Arise the Dragon of Destruction, Arise the Dragon who Adapted to Death Itself
INCURSIO RELEASE"
The moment I shouted out the last part, it seemed like the time of the world stood still and I saw what I was releasing. Damn it, the anime or the manga did not show how much of a monster was the dragon whose body was used to make the artifact. How the hell did anyone take it down in the first place. I am pretty sure that the author of that manga might have just written it without thinking.
As I stared at it, the dragon's multiple eyes too stared back at me. It then gave a nod, and I began to feel something forming all throughout my body and then I saw the dragon rearing its head and time started to flow again as the undying dragon declared its presence to the world.
ROOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAR!!!!!!
The roar of the dragon shocked everyone present and when the dragon covered me, turning into an armour that gave off the same presence, it shocked others even more as they too never saw me like this. But I had no time to revel in it as the cannon was about to fire.
I immediately pictured the adaptation I required right now, and I felt countless spikes digging into my body drawing blood from it.
The Drakon slayer spell was originally purely spell based which I needed to activate to use. But throughout the years, I managed to assimilate it to my blood thereby giving my body the same properties without any side effect. But now my body can't handle magic for a few days so absorbing it or releasing it won't work and the chances of damage are high. But my armour has no such problems.
I felt the armour absorb my blood, making me lightheaded for a second but then I began to feel the changes happening to it. I felt scales growing as well as wings. Along with it I felt the additional ability being added to it. Invisibility was the only ability that the adaptation had brought to it along with increasing the basic stats of the person using it. But right now, another ability got added to it.
Arcane magic absorption and expulsion. With the newly formed wings, I soared towards the cannon as it fired its shot. I stood directly in between it and my guild as I prepared myself. Unlike the case of my body where it required me to use my mouth to absorb the energy, the armour can absorb from any part of it as needed.
As the energy hit me, the armour started absorbing the energy towards itself and began storing it in itself. After a few seconds, the cannon stopped firing as it emptied out all the energy it stored.
Immediately I flung back the energy that the armour absorbed.
"JUPITER RE-RELEASE"
CRASHHHH!!!!
I roared as I send the same attack back to them shattering their cannon along with the Lacrima inside, essentially making the entire fortress stop working.
I then slowly floated downwards as the armour got released and turned back into sword. I then turned around to see the shocked face of my guildmates looking at the destruction I caused.
A/N- hope you like it and every 100 powerstone get extra chapter of Jason.
