In the Fairy Tail guild, aside from Erza, who uses Requip Magic, there are also Bisca and Alzack. However, unlike Erza's armor-based Requip, Bisca and Alzack's Requip focuses on firearms. And now, there seems to be another user of Requip Magic—Roy? How peculiar. What kind of Requip Magic does he use?
Natsu, Gray, and Happy were all very curious.
"Roy, your magic is also Requip Magic? What kind of Requip is it?"
Noticing their puzzled and curious gazes, Roy smiled knowingly and nodded.
"Requip Magic?"
"Yes."
"Watch."
Since they were so curious, he decided to show them.
Moreover, for the sake of justice points, he couldn't just stand by and watch.
With a faint smile on his face, Roy raised his right hand, and the Dragreider card appeared from his system space into his hand.
Seeing this magical act of summoning something out of thin air, Natsu and the others instantly assumed it was a spatial attribute of Requip Magic, so they didn't find it odd. Instead, they eagerly awaited Roy's demonstration.
The next moment, Kamen Rider Ryuki descended.
Roy shook his hand slightly, preparing to join the battle when Natsu stopped him.
"Wow! Is that your armor, Roy? It's so cool!"
Upon seeing Roy's transformed appearance, Natsu rushed forward with excitement, standing right in front of Roy, eyes filled with awe.
Then, he began poking Roy's solid muscles and patting his sturdy back, acting like a little fanboy.
Although Gray didn't act as exaggeratedly as Natsu, the fiery admiration in his eyes was evident.
No one expected Roy's Requip Magic to look like this.
This armor was unlike anything they'd ever seen before. Although it seemed a bit unusual compared to other armors, it was incredibly cool!
Just one glance was enough to make Natsu and Gray fall in love with it.
Indeed, no matter the world, most boys couldn't resist the appeal of a flashy suit.
Roy first glanced at Erza, who was elegantly cutting down enemies in the Iron Forest camp, then looked down at Natsu, who was practically clinging to him, and shook his head helplessly.
If he didn't know that Natsu was a simple-minded person, Roy might have suspected his excessive enthusiasm was something else.
As expected of the Fire Dragon Slayer—his passion truly burned like fire!
But Roy couldn't let Natsu keep bothering him.
If he didn't join the fight soon, he wouldn't just miss the meat—he wouldn't even get a taste of the soup!
After all, Erza was simply too fast.
The Iron Forest guild only had about a hundred members, and within seconds, she had already taken down over thirty of them.
With every defeated enemy, Roy's heart ached.
These were all justice points!
Even if they were just "mosquito legs," they were still meat!
Pushing Natsu aside, ignoring his disappointed expression, Roy rushed to the center of the battle.
Then, with a single punch, a single kick...
The highest-ranked members of the Iron Forest guild were only at the level of A-rank wizards, completely unable to resist Roy's onslaught.
Roy went on a rampage.
Justice points soared rapidly.
Once Roy joined the fray, the lives of the Iron Forest members became even more miserable.
Suddenly, arrogant laughter came from above the hall, drawing Roy and Erza's attention upward.
The few remaining members of the Iron Forest guild, who were already being crushed by Roy and Erza's combined efforts, also got a moment to breathe and looked up in surprise at the top of the hall.
There stood the silver-haired man from earlier—Iron Forest's leader, Erigor.
Earlier, after recognizing Erza's identity, Erigor had decisively flown away.
Everyone thought he was afraid of Erza and had abandoned his guild members to escape alone.
But now, it seemed that wasn't the case.
No one knew what Erigor had done up there, but his attitude was now extremely arrogant.
Looking down at Roy and the others, Erigor raised his left hand high, laughing maniacally.
"Members of the legal guild, is this what you came for?"
In his hand was a grotesque, evil-looking flute shaped like a skull.
**LULLABY!**
It was the very target of Roy and the team's mission.
Seeing the flute, Erza's pupils shrank as she realized the gravity of the situation.
They absolutely couldn't let him bring that to the meeting of the guildmasters!
"Heaven's Wheel: Sword Rain!"
With a cry, Erza unleashed dozens of swords from behind her, sending them hurtling toward Erigor with astonishing speed.
At full power, the swords reached Erigor in an instant.
But Erigor didn't flinch at the attack, showing disdain as the swords shattered upon hitting an invisible barrier—a swirling wall of wind.
This light green, rotating Wind Barrier Magic had nullified Erza's powerful attack entirely, reducing her swords to dust.
Everyone but Roy was stunned.
Natsu and Gray, who knew Erza's strength better than anyone in the guild, shouted in disbelief.
"Impossible!"
Even Erza herself was shocked. She knew exactly how powerful her previous attack was, yet it was entirely blocked by that thin wind barrier.
Refusing to give up, Erza bit her lip and unleashed another Sword Rain at the barrier, but to no avail.
Erigor laughed smugly.
"It's useless. This magic, *Magic Wind Wall*, is impossible to penetrate from within! If you try, you'll end up like those swords—reduced to dust."
His voice brimmed with confidence in his magic.
"Because of you, I've wasted enough time. I won't play with you any longer. Now, I'm off to find those old men and exact my revenge."
With that, the wind barrier expanded, trapping everyone in the station while Erigor began floating upwards.
As for his guild members still trapped in the station? He didn't care.
Companions? They were just people who happened to be there. Why bother with their survival?
Otherwise, why would they be called a Dark Guild?
"Goodbye, everyone," Erigor said, laughing as he ascended, ignoring the desperate cries of his remaining guild members.
"Damn it!"
Biting her lip, Erza gathered all her remaining magic power, preparing for one final, desperate attack on the wind barrier.
Suddenly, the sound of a card swipe echoed, followed by an electronic voice in the hall.
"Strike Vent!"
