Chapter 344: Air Domain Destruction
As expected... Natsu and Gray got wrecked.
The moment the two of them laid eyes on Aria, the mage representing the wind element, they didn't hesitate. They dove straight into battle.
Never mind that the plan had clearly stated: whoever encountered Aria should immediately call in the mobile team for backup. That was out the window the second they realized this was the guy who ambushed Master Makarov.
Their logic? They already beat the fire guy, so how tough could the wind one be?
Turns out... very.
Aria's overwhelming wind magic kept them pinned down, barely able to breathe. And he hadn't even removed his blindfold yet.
Natsu was hanging upside down against the wall. He gritted his teeth, planted his hands on the stone, and flipped himself back onto his feet.
"Damn it!" he growled.
Gray was slumped against the shattered window, using his elbows to hoist himself up. "He's way stronger than the fire guy," he admitted, panting. "They're not even in the same league."
Happy had taken cover to the side, watching with wide eyes. He knew it was time to quietly call for help.
Meanwhile, their opponent remained eerily composed.
