I, Yhwach, join the chat group

"Phantom..." Jiude frowned and shook his head, "I commissioned it, but no magician over there accepted it."

"Leave this matter to me."

Shadow Demon raised an eyebrow and held up a finger: "1 million J, I will let Phantom Ghost help you capture Miss Lucy."

1 million J, of course including the compensation for Phantom.

As for how much Shadow Demon would extract, Jiude didn't care.

"Can I trust you?" he snorted. "A wizard of unknown origin?"

1 million is a considerable sum even for the Heartfilia Group.

Especially recently, the consortium's funds have been in trouble and it is impossible to withdraw any funds.

"I can guarantee it!"

At this time, Barnett walked over and said respectfully, "In the name of the official wizard guild Lightning Storm, I assure you that this Shadow... Master will never deceive you."

"Do you know each other?" Jiude was stunned.

"It seems that the situation of your consortium is even worse than expected. Hehehe..."

Shadow Demon smiled and said, "If that's the case, then I'll convince the Ghost Guild first, and then ask you for your reward. How about that?"

He is not afraid of defaulting on his debts.

Upon hearing this, Jiude's heart suddenly moved, and he nodded immediately: "No problem, I agree. If you can bring Lucy back, I can afford the 1 million reward!"

After bringing Lucy back, they could form an alliance and with the financial support of another consortium, he would be able to get out of the predicament immediately.

By then, not to mention 100 million, even 1 billion will be no problem!

"Well, that's all right then."

The shadow demon smiled and waved his hand, tearing the space apart and opening the entrance to the shadow world. He then rolled up Barnett and disappeared together.

Whoosh!

Seeing that the two men disappeared, Jiude was shocked.

"I hope it will succeed..."

He thought secretly in his heart, but he always felt that if he handed this matter over to this mysterious man covered in black, something bad would happen.

Meanwhile, in the Shadow World.

Shadow Demon couldn't help but laugh, "1 million? With such a high reward, the Dark Guild wouldn't be able to resist making a move, right? How can a mere Phantom Ghost be enough!"

He made up his mind to make a big move.

Chapter 217 The Roar of the Sea Dragon

[Second update~]

……

If Mew hadn't intervened, the normal plot development would have been a fierce battle between the two major guilds, Phantom Ruler and Fairy Tail.

The ghost's purpose is not only to take Lucy away and extort money, but also to destroy Fairy Tail. The feud between the two families has a long history.

Of course, now that Shadow Demon has intervened, things won’t be that simple.

"One Phantom Ruler is definitely not enough. We need to notify more people. Regular guilds are not an option, as I don't think anyone will join the crusade. The Devil's Heart is an option, and Raven's Tail is also a good option. As for other small dark guilds, they are not worth mentioning. We'll talk about it later."

Shadow Demon thought to himself and immediately made arrangements, "First, let's meet Joseph."

Just as he was thinking about it, Barnett said in surprise: "What kind of place is this? It's dark and chaotic everywhere."

There is no concept of earth and sky at all. No matter which direction you look in this space, it is always dark.

"This is my world."

The Shadow Demon glanced at him and said, "Now that you've become a Water Dragon Slayer, don't you want to try fighting a real Dragon Slayer?"

Having said that, without waiting for the other party to answer, he immediately closed his eyes and immersed his mind in the star map.

The five-star shadow demon's control over the star map has become increasingly profound.

After searching for a while, he opened his eyes again and said, "We've found a rough location. Let's go!"

With a 280-character move, the shadow demon grabbed Barnett's shoulder and disappeared in an instant.

……

Rumble!

Above the sky, there were lightning and thunder, dark clouds and heavy rain.

The town was drenched in rain. A girl with blue curly hair was walking on the street with a small umbrella and an expressionless face.

"Pattering..."

She murmured softly, as if the sky was crying for her and raining heavily because of her.

"What a damn weather!"

Cursing was heard, and a man holding a briefcase to cover his head ran past her quickly, obviously extremely annoyed.

It was a nice day, but suddenly it started raining without any warning.

The girl's eyebrows trembled slightly, "Sad person..."

She muttered, continuing towards the guild.

Beside her, there was a huge water ball, and inside the water ball, a vicious man was unconscious.

Soon, she reached the door of the guild, and at this moment, a man with a mustache suddenly walked out.

"Welcome back, Water Elemental Juvia."

Thor pushed his monocle and looked at the man in the water ball. "Nonono~ Isn't this the wanted thief? The government commissioned a mission with a reward of 800 million J. As expected of Miss Juvia."

"Where's the president?" Juvia asked softly, still expressionless.

"The president is injured and is probably still recovering."

Suddenly, a humming sound was heard, and Ge Jier was seen leaning against the door without him noticing.

"Ten minutes ago, it suddenly started raining heavily, so I guessed you were back."

At this moment, a dark, ghostly human-shaped creature emerged from the ground in front of the door.

"It's the president's ghost soldier!" Thor said hurriedly.

The ghost soldier whispered, "Juvia, report to the third floor."

"Yes, President Joseph."

Juvia nodded, then reached out, controlled the water ball through the air, and dropped it at the feet of several people.

With a puff, the water ball exploded and the man inside fell to the ground.

"I'll leave this to you."

After saying this, she walked towards the inside of the guild.

However, at this moment, a strong wind suddenly arose in the rainstorm, and wisps of black smoke gathered from all directions.

These dark forces formed a spiral door, and the next moment, two figures walked out of the door one after another.

"Who!?" Thor's expression changed and he became alert.

"Hehehe..."

The shadow demon laughed and glanced around, only to see Juvia, "Rain Girl? I didn't expect the coordinates to choose you. I have to thank you."

"who are you?"

Juvia frowned slightly.

"I am a shadow demon, specially..."

However, before he could finish his words, Juvia suddenly stretched out her hand and pointed at the air.

"The current cuts through!"

Whoosh!

The water stream, as sharp as a knife blade, swept across in an instant.

The attack was so sudden that Barnett subconsciously leaned back and barely avoided it.

But the shadow demon did not move, allowing the attack to penetrate his body, and then slashed at Gejil and the other two behind him.

"Damn it, don't you have eyes?" Ge Jier said angrily. He raised his hand to block, and instantly turned into steel, blocking the attack.

As for Thor, he immediately dived underground to avoid being cut by the water.

"what?"

Juvia was slightly startled and looked at the shadow demon. "You're immune to physical attacks just like me..."

"Humph, you actually resorted to violence against Mr. Shadow Demon? I'm here to teach you a lesson!"

Barnett snorted lightly, opened his mouth and took a breath, and suddenly, the rain in the sky stopped.

"The Sea Dragon's Roar!!"

boom! !

Under the influence of magic, a huge amount of rain turned into a torrent and shot out in an instant.

In an instant, Juvia's body was pierced and submerged, but the attack spread out, penetrating three or four streets before dissipating.

"impossible!"

Gajeel, who was leaning against the door, widened his eyes and said in disbelief, "It's actually dragon-slaying magic! No... it's a little different!"

The next moment, he moved.

He jumped up, raised his fist, turned it into steel, and suddenly extended it to hit Barnett.

"Iron dragon stick!"

Feeling the attack from behind, Barnett dodged it immediately, then turned around, changed his palm into a claw, and suddenly grabbed it.

"Sea Dragon Claw!"
