"Aries really isn't good at fighting."
Marco's figure appeared beside the Fairy Tail members, delivering a sharp critique of the Aries Celestial Spirit.
"Why do you say that?" Mirajane asked.
Before Marco could answer, Leo had already given her the answer on the other side.
"Wool Shot!"
With her pink hair, the magic Aries used was also fluffy and pink. She raised her hands, shooting out wool bullets from them.
Unfortunately, Aries's firing rate wasn't fast, while Leo's speed was incredible.
Covering the distance in a few quick strides, he dodged Aries's shots and closed in right next to her.
"Wool Bomb!"
The moment Leo closed the distance, Aries panicked a bit.
She knew she wasn't a match for Leo, the Lion, but she couldn't be defeated so quickly, or she'd face punishment.
Although Angel was better than Karen Lilica, if she performed too poorly, she'd still be scolded. Angel wasn't exactly a saint.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Aries threw out clusters of pink wool bombs that exploded right in front of her, solidly blocking the line of sight.
But by this time, Leo had bypassed her.
Leo's target had never been Aries to begin with, he charged straight for Angel.
"Eek?!"
Upon realizing this, Aries panicked.
She hadn't expected Leo to ignore her and go straight for Angel.
"She really isn't suited for combat. Her attacks are random, her defense is instinctual, and she has no tactical thought. She's too passive."
Seeing this, Mirajane couldn't help but comment.
Anyone with eyes could see that not only did Aries not know how to fight, but she also didn't want to fight.
"Damn it! What a useless piece of trash!"
Seeing Aries's performance, the one struggling the most to keep her composure was Angel, but fortunately, she was used to this kind of thing.
Aries was only somewhat useful for fighting small fries, she could steamroll them just by relying on her raw stats.
Once the enemy's skill level went up, even if Aries was stronger than them, she could sometimes end up getting beaten.
Clack!
A large shield materialized in front of Angel.
It was Caelum, the Chisel Celestial Spirit. This spirit's ability was to transform into different objects—though strictly inanimate ones.
Transforming into living things was the ability of the Gemini spirit. In comparison, Caelum's ability was simpler.
But simple didn't mean impractical, the Chisel Celestial Spirit was still very useful.
Boom!
Leo's attack was blocked as his punch slammed into the large shield.
"Dual Gate Opening?"
Leo wasn't surprised that Angel had mastered the "Dual Gate Opening" ability.
After all, this woman was one of the Oración Seis.
Having spent three years in Fairy Tail, he understood a lot about things in the human world.
"Fluffy Wool!"
With Leo's punch blocked, Aries finally reacted.
She thrust both hands forward, and a tsunami of fluffy pink wool surged toward Leo, Aries was trying to trap him.
"Go back, Aries."
Just as Aries finished casting her wool magic, Angel sent her back to the Celestial Spirit World.
Although Aries was surprised and worried, she returned to the spirit world with a sense of relief.
It was best if she didn't have to fight.
"I'm sorry..."
Apologizing once again, Aries's figure vanished.
Apologizing and saying "I'm sorry" had become a habit for her.
"Sending Aries back, who else can you rely on?" Leo mocked her as he struggled to tear the wool off his body.
"I'll rely on myself!" Angel shouted.
The Chisel Celestial Spirit transformed into its laser cannon form, aiming the muzzle directly at Leo and beginning to gather energy.
At the same time, Cana ran over, joining the group.
"Cana? It's enough to leave things here to the elite squad."
Seeing Cana approach, Freed tried to shoo her away.
They didn't even have enough opponents to go around, and now Cana was coming over to join the fray.
"Lucy! Leo! Be careful! That woman has another Zodiac Celestial Spirit! I ran into it!"
Cana ignored Freed and anxiously yelled out to Lucy and Leo.
While warning them, she also moved closer to Lucy.
"Another Celestial Spirit?"
Cana's words made everyone look at her curiously.
Lucy also had a look of surprise on her face. If she had another one, that meant this Angel possessed three Golden Keys.
Her luck was good!
Lucy's mother, an old friend of the Celestial Spirit King, only had three Golden Keys.
This alone proved how difficult it was to possess three of them.
"Cana, did you see what that spirit looked like?" Lucy asked immediately.
She was curious.
Scorpio and Aries had already made their appearance, what other Zodiac Celestial Spirit did Angel have?
"It's Gemini."
Cana grabbed Lucy, and then with a Poof, she changed her form.
As the smoke cleared, another Lucy appeared.
"What is this?!"
Lucy's eyes widened in disbelief.
It was clearly Cana just a second ago, so how did she turn into her exact likeness in the blink of an eye?!
"The Gemini Celestial Spirit!"
However, Lucy caught on the very next second.
She took two steps back, putting some distance between herself and her copy.
"Come forth! Gate of the Golden Bull, Taurus!"
An even more surprising thing happened to Lucy.
The Gemini spirit that had transformed into her pulled out the Golden Key of the Taurus Celestial Spirit, and summoned Taurus the Golden Bull!
"Moo!"
"Taurus?!"
But before Taurus could speak, the real Lucy's scream made him realize something was wrong, and he turned to look at the real Lucy.
"Two... Lucys?"
Taurus was dumbfounded.
He always looked a bit slow on a good day, but this sudden twist left him baffled.
"Taurus, you perverted cow! That's the Gemini Celestial Spirit in disguise!"
Seeing Taurus's silly expression, Lucy couldn't help but stamp her feet.
It felt awful seeing her own Celestial Spirit summoned by someone else!
