Erza stopped, carefully placing Meldy to the side to ensure her safety. Then, she turned to face Kyoka, her eyes resolute and determined.
"I wasn't running, I was just looking for an open area where no one could hinder our battle!" Erza's eyes gleamed with determination, her voice full of confidence and resolve.
This fearless attitude made Kyoka's previous arrogance seem utterly ridiculous.
"You're just a lowly human, don't give me that hateful look!" Kyoka glared at Erza, an uncontrollable rage surging within her.
"I am a demon from Zeref's book~" Kyoka roared, and as she waved her hands, countless electrical currents shot out like venomous snakes, instantly spreading across the entire area.
However, facing this terrifying electrical attack, Erza did not flinch. She resolutely walked forward, allowing the currents to pass through her body, as if the pain was insignificant to her.
Just then, a light flashed in Erza's palm, and a magnificent armor appeared in her hand.
Without hesitation, she put the Lightning Empress Armor on Meldy, ensuring that Meldy would not be harmed by the electric currents.
"For the guild, for justice! This kind of attack is nothing!!!" Erza shouted loudly, her voice echoing in the air as if to pierce Kyoka's soul.
"Demons belong in hell!" Erza's eyes became incredibly sharp, and her magic power surged wildly throughout her body, like a raging torrent.
She mimicked Zorn's previous movements, condensing all her magic power onto the blade, and at the same time, a layer of dark Armament Haki also attached to it, making the entire sword emit a chilling aura.
As soon as she finished speaking, Erza's figure flickered, and she suddenly appeared before Kyoka like a ghost.
The demon sword Hongying in Erza's hand gleamed coldly, delivering a heavy blow to Kyoka's chest.
Kyoka's body, which originally possessed extremely strong defensive capabilities, instantly split open under this single strike.
Her body was also instantly sent flying into the air.
Erza, however, slightly lowered her body, and with a push of her foot, the ground instantly caved in a layer. She shot into the air at high speed, like an arrow released from a bowstring.
"Ah~" With a roar, Erza wielded the demon sword Hongying, continuously striking Kyoka.
Kyoka's body was continuously moved in the air, completely unable to retaliate.
Each strike was accompanied by the splashing of demon blood. The demon blood gradually dripped onto the ground, forming patches of crimson bloodstains.
At this moment, Erza was like a war god descended, exuding a powerful aura and majesty.
Her eyes were firm and cold, and the demon sword Hongying in her hand became a symbol of death.
With the final blow, a massive slash was aimed at Kyoka.
Bang~
With a loud bang, Kyoka's body slammed into a corner of the cuboid Demon Island, and the slash instantly cut off that corner along with Kyoka's lifeless body, sending her plummeting downwards.
Meldy, clad in the Lightning Empress Armor, watched the falling Kyoka, her face beaming with joy.
She mused to herself: With Erza's strength, even without my help, she would surely have been able to defeat this demon.
However, at this moment, Erza lightly landed beside Meldy, having already changed back into her ordinary armor.
Erza gently stroked Meldy's head and softly said, "That's not it. Fortunately, your arrival not only successfully limited the enemy's attacks but also gave me a powerful boost. It is precisely because of this that I was able to achieve victory so easily."
Her gratitude to Meldy was evident, because when their feelings were connected, the power from her companion continuously surged into her heart.
However, once the inner resolve was released, the body, which had been tormented by Kyoka, still showed a deep sense of exhaustion.
...
Meanwhile,
Mirajane, Laxus, the Thunder God Tribe, Ultear, Levy, and others had also split up a few minutes earlier.
Mirajane, alone, headed in one direction, a place that always seemed to be attracting her.
At this moment, in the Nine Demon Gates, Seilah stood in a spacious incubation room, her gaze fixed on the Jackal that was about to mature, a cold glint in her eyes.
She had long been unable to suppress the killing intent in her heart towards the Fairy Tail group who had once ruined her perfect story, wishing she could immediately put them to death.
However, she had to follow Kyoka's instructions and come to check on Jackal's recovery.
"Slippery~ slippery~ haha, almost done" A little girl in white clothes and a black rabbit-ear hat suddenly appeared in the room.
Her name was Lamy, and she had a strange personality, like a mischievous child.
Suddenly,
When one of the liquid-filled tanks produced a lot of foam, Kyoka's figure emerged from the tank.
"Damn it, Lamy, hurry up and let me revive quickly!!!" Kyoka's gloomy face was filled with anger and anxiety.
After her battle with Erza, she had a deeper understanding of Fairy Tail's true strength and knew that she needed to see Pluton as soon as possible to seek more power and support.
"How can this be, how can even you..." Seilah's expression changed, revealing shock on her face. She had never expected Kyoka to be beaten to such a miserable state.
"Fortunately, as long as we have this laboratory, our bodies will be immortal, and everything is still in time!!!" Kyoka said slowly, her eyes filled with relief and rage.
"Good, then let's speed it up!" Seilah's expression also became solemn, just as she was about to take action.
Just then, a cold voice suddenly appeared:
"I never expected to stumble upon such an important matter by accident!!!" Mirajane's figure appeared on top of a tank, her hand touching the disgusting demon tentacles.
It was precisely because of these things that demons could continuously revive.
"You are from Fairy Tail!!!" Seilah suddenly stopped her movements and shouted loudly.
However, Mirajane ignored her, stroking the demon tentacles and falling into deep thought. She seemed to have some special understanding of these tentacles, and then she realized:
"Although it's a bit troublesome, it seems I'll have to destroy this place first!!!"
This sentence made Seilah's heart skip a beat.
"How is that possible, just you?"
Then she burst into laughter.
She clearly didn't believe Mirajane had the ability to destroy the place, thinking it was just nonsense.
After the laughter, a hint of ruthlessness flashed in Seilah's eyes.
With a wave of her hand, countless books rushed towards Mirajane like a torrent, carrying a fierce momentum, as if to completely engulf her.
Bang~ But suddenly a tank exploded, blocking everything.
Bang~ Bang~ Bang~
Then came a series of explosions.
