The first that got blocked was surprisingly Fairy Tail...
However, instead of the expected brawl for the passing rights, they simply walked through continuing their path...
Then Alvarez came forward and looked at their opponent blocking the way, before however, they could react, Joe formed a sword out of thin air...
This sword was green indicating the wind element and slashed towards Dimaria so fast that everyone watching only saw a green flash passing by her body...
Ryouji : Hoh??
Violetta : You saw that??
Ryouji : Yeah for everyone it seemed like Joe slashed Dimaria but the truth was that she activated Time Magic freezing the whole area...
Ryouji : Right now only a few selected individuals can move through and those she allows to move...
As Ryouji spoke, he looked around and saw that the whole plaza had quite down from the shock and excitement and all teams, well most of them had been stopped in their tracks...
Dimaria was watching Joe in anger for the sudden assault as she saw the slash path that almost cut her in half...
Joe : What are you so angry about?? I saved you...
Dimaria : You bastard!!!
Just as Dimaria was about to lash out and fight out with Joe, Brandish held her up and pointed at the green slash frozen in the air...
They could faintly perceive that there was something engulfed within and as they paid more attention they saw a monkey-like creature with a cape and three leaves on its forehead tined by a bandana...
It was frozen in midair and a large wound was in its tiny body while blood had splurted from it frozen in midair as well...
Nienhart : What is that??
Tina : That's Raven Tail's member Obra... It has the ability to blend with almost everything and suck the Magic power of its target empowering his puppet...
Brandish and the rest gasped at her words while Dimaria frowned as she hadn't realised at all...
Eehto : Isn't Obra the tall guy???
Erion : That's his puppet and this guy uses this to steal others...
Joe : Enough... Raven Tail will DIE!!!
Joe : Move forward and also Tartaros come out...
Alvarez team were confused especially Dimaria but soon were shocked as a few figures walked from the corners towards their position...
Dimaria : H-how...??
Silver : Is it that surprising??
Kyoka : Us demons, we don't use magic but the opposite of it...
Joe : Yet you still lost to our Guild years ago... Anyway, both teams can move forward...
An eerie silence fell on the surroundings while few knew what was going on in reality, then Tina clapped her hands and crated illusions in place to recreate their situation...
Tina : The moment you passed us, cancel your magic Sis Dimaria... This way it will seem like you teleported a short distance and bypassed us...
Kyoka : Heh, girl this doesn't mean we owe you anything...
Each and everyone looked at each other and Dimaria deciding not to chase things did as they proposed and the moment time resumed, everyone watched as the Alvarez team vanished and appeared behind the Old Dragon...
A huge cheer resounded as they figured that a beauty escaped her fate of getting slashed...
At the same time behind Alvarez appeared Tartaros which they though used this chance to take the lead and bypass them as well by teleporting...
Mato was excited for this turn of events and started commenting with fire in his eyes making Ryouji cringe as he thought he suits the mascot of Halloween...
Soon enough Sabertooth, Lamia Scale, Mermaid Heel also reached forward and passed without mishaps but when Raven Tail appeared their faces were full of scorn...
Alexei looked at a rift in the ground caused by the slash and saw Obra heavily breathing as he had his foot almost inside his coffin...
