Chapter 102 - War Game 2

The day of the War Game.

Everyone was waiting for this day to come. Waiting for War Game and now the day has finally come. Even Gods were anticipating this day. It's not like everyday they could watch a War Game between Familia. So everyone was kind of looking forward to this match.

Currently everyone were watching the War Game through a projection. It was created by Hermes powers.

Jin, Ur, and Mercphobia were also watching the War Game as Jellal participate in it.

Jin heard the plan from Jellal this morning after he came back from the pŀėȧsurė quarter. In the anime, Hermes didn't even know their plan but know it seems that he was the one who organized everything. It seems that the plot already began to change through his meddling.

'Everything's going according to my plan.' Jin thought as he stood up and left. He need to do something so that he can fully control what will happen.

Ur turned his head to Jin and asked, "Where are you going, Jin?"

"I'm just going out for a bit." Jin said and he continue to walked away.

Ur looked at Jin's figure and thought that he must have plotting some devious plan. It's always like this when he's plotting something. He always act mysteriously.

At the War Game.

The bell already rang and it means that the match has began.

This War Game was Siege War. Apollo Familia was the defender while Hestia Familia is the attacker.

Currently all of the Apollo Familia was inside the large fortress. Some of them were patrolling at the walls looking for Hestia Familia.

"It's begun, huh?" One of the Apollo Familia said.

"Yeah."

"But we've got three days. They won't attack immediately... Huh??"

"Is that...?"

Suddenly they saw a boy, wearing a black robe and a mask, slowly walking towards the fortress. The boy has a short blue hair, black eyes, and loose gray pants.

"They are already here!"

"But it's just one!"

The soldiers on the walls lifted up their bows and pulled it's string. They quickly aimed at Jellal.

Swoosh!! Swoosh!! Swoosh!!

Swoosh!! Swoosh!! Swoosh!!

Waves of arrow rain down at Jellal. They didn't even hesitate as they shot hundreds of arrows at a single target. It shows that they wouldn't even give their opponents a chance to win even if they clearly have an advantage. Unfortunately for them Jellal was their target. A bunch of  ordinary arrows wouldn't do anything to him.

Jellal lifted up his head and looked at the rain of arrows. He slowly lifted up his hand as his magic power flared up.

"Stop." Jellal said as he use telekinesis to stop the arrows.

The arrows stop moving in the mid air. All of them stopped before it could reach Jellal.

"Go." Jellal said as he flicked his fingers.

Swoosh!! Swoosh!! Swoosh!!

"What the hell?!!" The soldiers shouted in panic as they tried to hide from the arrows.

"The arrows are coming back!!"

"Quickly hide! Don't just space out there!!"

Many soldiers were taken out in that attack. But... Jellal wasn't done yet.

Both of Jellal's hand glow. He then raised both of his hand above his head.

"Rain down Heavenly Arrows!" Jellal said as a three layered magic circle appear above his hands.

A white light shot into the sky and after a few moments, a white ray of lights rain down at the whole fortress.

Boom!! Boom!! Boom!!

It destroy a part of walls, building, and the floor of the fortress. Smoke and dust could be seen coming out of the fortress.

Jellal looked at the fortress and said, "I already eliminated enough people so I guess it's enough. I've already fulfilled my role here."

He then sat down at a tall rock and watched the battle inside the fortress.

...

Everyone was shocked by Jellal's performance. It's their first time seeing something like that.

The adventurers started chattering to themselves.

"Whoa!!"

"Who is that?!"

"That man is a powerful magic caster!"

At Loki Familia.

Finn looked at Riveria and asked, "What do you think, Riveria?"

"He's a strong magic caster." Riveria replied. She then added, "But... Where did they find someone who have that kind of capabilities? I can't think of anyone beside those large familia but they don't seem to match his figure."

Finn then looked at Jellal on the projection and said, "It seems that there's still strong people here who are hiding in the dark."

...

"Hermes-sama...!" Asfi looked at Hermes.

"Yeah. I already have a guess that all of them are extremely powerful. But at the same time... I have a feeling that these people will cause something big in the near future." Hermes said seriously.

...

Somewhere in the tower of babel. Freya was looking at Jellal with a frown on her beautiful face. She clearly remember that mask and that tattoo. She wouldn't be able to forget what she saw that day. A human possess a dragon inside his soul.

"Give me the information about this person. I want to know everyone who have that kind of mask." Freya said.
