Chapter 432: Justice Fight (BONUS)
"Summon, Scuttle Crab! Go pick up Granny Porlyusica."
With the hostages safe and the spell interference gone, Rhodes’ biggest concern was the old man’s health.
As for Laxus, there was plenty of firepower to handle him. Two S-Class mages, Mira and Erza, and even a top-tier A-Class mage who could fight at near-S-Class level. One way or another, they’d find a solution. Worst case, they’d tear down the church. Sure, that was supposed to be the wedding venue in the future, so he’d rather not destroy it.
Freed was taken back to the guild by Gray, and Rhodes and Mira dashed off toward the cathedral.
The guild was in full swing. Warren was relaying updates on injured members’ locations so others could retrieve them, and a tally was being made of the damages to local businesses and residents.
The girls who’d just recovered from being petrified also got to work. Bisca went to find Alzack, and since Levy no longer had to rewrite the spell, she left to search for Jet and Droy.
Juvia had wanted to chase after Gray but, learning he was on his way back, simply asked which way to go and rushed to meet him.
Cana figured enough people were going after Laxus already. Instead, she went to help bring back the injured, planning to check on the cathedral afterward.
Lucy stopped by the infirmary to check on Master Makarov, then joined the effort to gather everyone.
Despite the chaos at Fairy Tail, the rest of the festival wasn’t too affected.
There had been some flashy fights, sure, but just like Laxus claimed earlier, people thought of it more like an over-the-top show. The only real concern now was whether the magic parade could still happen that evening.
