Chapter 67 The Battle Intensifies
Chapter 67 The Battle Intensifies
During the Absolute Demonic Front: Battlefront, Shirou Kotomine learned a great deal about strategic planning under the command of Leonidas and Tomoe Gozen.
Although there are only three of them now.
However, Shirou Kotomine, as the commander, still managed to control the battlefield quite well.
On the battlefield today, Erza is undoubtedly the main offensive force.
Driven by the belief of protecting her companions and the guild, she seemed to unleash her inner power and relentlessly entangled herself with Joseph.
Clad in the Star Armor, she used light magic to continuously fight against Joseph.
Of course, the Star Armor doesn't offer much of a counter to Joseph.
But Erza has so many different kinds of armor.
In this fierce battle, she frequently changed her armor, constantly searching for Joseph's weaknesses, striving to find an opportunity to win.
Joseph was extremely distressed by her persistent pestering.
Even when he unleashed all sorts of powerful magic, he couldn't defeat Erza.
This is due not only to Erza's difficulty in dealing with her, but also to Mirajane's assistance.
Although in terms of individual strength, there was a significant gap between Mirajane and Erza at this point.
But her attacks are by no means something that can be ignored.
In this world, there isn't actually any specific division of strength among mages.
If a distinction really needs to be made, it would be between ordinary mages and top-tier mages who can carry out dangerous missions.
The Ten Wizard Saints are the ten strongest mages, standing above all other mages.
Therefore, even the Ten Wizard Saints are considered top-tier mages.
Just as Aria the Sky, the leader of the four elements, could severely wound and kill Makarov in a surprise attack.
Even in terms of absolute strength, Mirajane is still far from Joseph's level.
But the other party definitely has the means to kill him.
Therefore, he absolutely cannot give the other party the slightest chance.
Two formidable enemies constantly entangled and fought around him, searching for his weaknesses.
This meant that Joseph had to devote his energy to dealing with two people at the same time.
This undoubtedly greatly weakened his strength.
What angered him even more was that the two people in front of him were getting better and better at coordinating their attacks.
At the beginning, their cooperation was a bit awkward, which always gave him opportunities to find some flaws.
But the two worked together better and better.
He soon found no flaws in their defenses.
Furthermore, their combined strength has become increasingly formidable.
The two women kept moving around, never giving Joseph the chance to attack both of them at the same time.
Whenever Joseph was about to launch a full-scale attack on one person, the other would launch a potentially fatal attack, forcing Joseph to turn around and deal with him instead.
Thus, they gave up the opportunity to completely annihilate one person.
Even so, the two still faced several perilous situations due to Joseph's formidable strength.
The reason why the two did not fail.
This is naturally thanks to Shirou Kotomine.
Shirou Kotomine constantly paced the edge of the battlefield, scrutinizing the flow of the battle before him.
Pre-read the battle.
Then, launch a perfectly timed attack at the crucial juncture.
This is what Shirou Kotomine did.
The light arrows fired from Kotomine Shirou's treasured bow are extremely powerful.
If it were a one-on-one situation with Joseph, Joseph might be able to easily deal with the arrows shot by Shirou Kotomine.
But while he was locked in combat with Erza and Mirajane, a sudden, unexpected arrow was definitely too much for him to handle.
Although Shirou Kotomine has a way to replenish his magical energy.
However, at this moment, Shirou Kotomine is not suited for sustained combat while wielding the treasured bow.
That's why he chose this fighting style.
And as it turns out, this is indeed the most suitable way to fight.
Under the combined attack of the three, Joseph, who was originally stronger, was now suffering greatly.
This only fueled Joseph's anger.
He clearly came to this fishpond to fry fish.
I never imagined that I would become a fish.
This was undoubtedly something Joseph's pride could not allow.
After all, he stopped attending meetings altogether simply because he got drunk and got into a fight with Makarov during a meeting and lost.
And ever since then, I've harbored hatred towards Fairy Tail.
He's only a tiny bit cunning.
Then, Joseph, enraged, also erupted.
"Let you repent for provoking me given this overwhelming disparity in strength!"
Infinite magic flowed from Joseph's body.
Under his magical influence, the sky began to change color.
The whole world is beginning to change.
The aura of death was everywhere, seemingly leading the entire world toward death.
Countless streams of magical energy, carrying the aura of death, emerged from the void.
Then these streams of magic began to shoot towards Kotomine Shirou and the other two.
"Holy shit!"
Unable to help but swear, Shirou Kotomine began his desperate escape.
There was no way around it; Joseph released just too many streams of magic, so numerous that they were impossible to count.
In this situation, Shirou Kotomine has no other means of defense besides dodging.
He had no choice but to run!
He ran continuously on the top floor of the Phantom Lord, with countless streams of magical energy shooting towards Shirou Kotomine.
But he dodged all of these attacks with his swift movements.
Kotomine Shirou escaped unscathed.
But all the buildings beneath his feet were destroyed by the magical beams.
Unlike Shirou Kotomine, Erza, with her abundant magical energy and formidable strength, destroyed all the magical beams aimed at her.

Meanwhile, Mirajane, who can fly, is playing a game of speed and passion with these magical streams in the sky.
Only Kotomine Shirou, wherever he went, was completely destroyed.
With his constant escapes, the entire headquarters of the Phantom Lord is on the verge of destruction.
Joseph's eyes twitched as he witnessed this scene.
Kotomine Shirou's behavior caused his blood pressure to spike continuously.
Then, Joseph waved his hand, and more streams of magic suddenly left Erza and Mirajane, heading straight for Shirou Kotomine.
When the attack was launched earlier, Shirou Kotomine was just an extra for Joseph.
Joseph's main targets were still Erza and Mirajane.
But now, in order to ensure that his guild still exists after this battle, he has chosen to eliminate Kotomine Shirou first.
"Shirou, watch out!"
Erza and Mirajane, who were focused on resisting the magical currents, suddenly felt a sudden drop in pressure.
They reacted instantly and loudly reminded Kotomine Shirou.
After hearing Erza and Mirajane's warning, Shirou Kotomine turned around and instantly realized that this attack could not be completely dodged.
He will definitely be hit.
This is inevitable.
Seeing the impending crisis, Shirou Kotomine immediately put his arm over his head.
At this moment, he had no other recourse but to trust the armor he wore.
As for Shirou Mine, there was no protection on his head.
So he could only use his arms to defend himself.
The next moment, countless streams of magical energy struck Kotomine Shirou.
A deafening roar suddenly erupted.
