Chapter 199: Ch 199 : Lia
To the members of the Fairy Tail guild, Noel was someone who, no matter how dire the situation, could always remain calm and rational, never wavering due to external factors.
His strength was different from Laxus's absolute confidence or Gildarts's steadiness, yet he was equally a pillar of support for everyone.
In their eyes, Noel was someone untouched by doubt or fear.
But for the first time, they saw Noel falter.
His once composed face turned deathly pale, as if he had just witnessed the most bewildering sight in the world.
Even his body, which had been hovering steadily in the air, wavered slightly before slowly descending back to the ground.
His lips trembled as he repeatedly mouthed the same words.
Though the distance was far, everyone could still barely make out what he was saying.
"Im...pos...si...ble."
Soft footsteps echoed in the air.
Though they were barely audible, they reached everyone's ears with an eerie clarity, as if the sound was bypassing the physical world and resonating directly within their souls.
