59 Chapter 59 : Payback!

"Alright, we're here to work until the upper floor is fixed."

"Work? Where's the motivation for that?!"

"Natsu, you're almost there," Makarov shouted at Natsu, accidentally swatting Lucy's butt with his hand.

"Why did you spank me?!" Lucy blushed, feeling embarrassed.

Mira pouted again, exclaiming, "Master, I'm getting angry."

"Ah, excuse me, I can't hold it any longer," the old man hurriedly dashed to the restroom.

"Why are you so calm, Master?" Natsu fumed with frustration.

Mira explained, "Natsu, the Master, is also reluctant, but the Magic Council prohibits armed conflicts between guilds."

"But didn't they start it first?"

Mira shook her head, "It's not about who started it."

Kyros looked at Mira and said, "Mira, tell me where the Phantom Lord Guild is located."

"Kyros?!"

Gray and Lucy looked at Kyros in astonishment.

"Kyros..." Mira attempted to dissuade.

Kyros shook his head and declared, "You know me, no one messes with Fairy Tail without facing consequences. The Phantom Lord must face justice."

"Even against the Magic Council?"

"If the Magic Council can't discern right from wrong, then they're not worthy of their authority."

Kyros held a faint impression of the Magic Council, albeit not a favorable one. In his view, they were nothing but 'weak.'

Despite being wielders of 'magic,' the Magic Council's collective strength was feeble, failing to produce formidable wizards. As the governing body of wizards in the Ishgar continent, their prowess was undeserving of their title.

Kyros typically didn't clash with the Magic Council, preferring to avoid conflict like Natsu and others, as most enemies he encountered were swiftly dispatched by him. However, in the event of a genuine conflict, Kyros wouldn't hesitate to assert himself—he was never one to yield.

"Alright," Mira consented, understanding Kyros's nature. No matter how she tried to dissuade him, the outcome would remain the same. And true to his character, he wouldn't permit such injustice.

"I'm coming too!" Natsu declared.

"No! You're the one who made the mistake; wait here and reflect." 

"Then why can you go?!"

"If you're better behaved than me, you can join."

"Damn it!"

Soon, Kyros was granted the location of the Phantom Lord guild by Mira. He then turned around and left the guild.

After a while, Makarov returned.

"Huh? What about that rascal, Kyros?" Makarov inquired.

Mira replied, "He's off to deal with the Phantom Lord Guild."

Makarov didn't seem surprised by Mira's words. After all, he had watched Kyros grow up and knew exactly what kind of person he was.

"This stubborn boy's aversion to defeat hasn't changed! But let's go. What Jose did this time was too much. It's time to put him in his place."

"But Guild Master, didn't you say we shouldn't engage in conflicts with the Phantom Lord Guild?" Mira questioned.

Makarov retorted angrily, "I also told you not to stir up trouble, did you listen? But now it's best not to back down."

"Since that stubborn boy Kyros is about to act, there's no need to worry about the Magic Council."

The Magic Council itself acts as an arbiter. In case of conflicts between Wizard Guilds, the Council will intervene. Ultimately, the Phantom Lord Guild might face punishment, but Fairy Tail would lose face.

Makarov cared more about the safety of his guild members than his own reputation. Currently, Fairy Tail lacked any S-rank mages except Mirajane within the guild, so he chose to tolerate the situation.

With Kyros's return, he felt more at ease. He couldn't gauge Kyros's strength, but he trusted that the boy wouldn't let the guild down.

He believed that even if Jose encountered Kyros, he wouldn't gain any advantage. Thus, he felt reassured when Kyros took action.

"Listen up, everyone! Kyros is going to show those Phantom Lord Guild who's boss. If they cause trouble, they'll regret it. And if they dare to provoke us again, we'll hit them hard!" Makarov declared.

"Oooo!!!" The guild members cheered in response to the Guild Master's words. With Kyros taking action, they knew the Phantom Lord Guild would receive tenfold for their actions.

In Oak City, located in the northeast of Fiore, lies the Phantom Lord Guild.

"Hahaha! This is absolutely marvelous!"

"Fairy Tail is in ruins."

"They must be seething with rage now! They deserve it! After challenging our Phantom Lord Guild, they're probably cowering in fear."

"Ahahahahaha~!"...

Suddenly, a deafening "Boom!!!" resounded as the doors of the Phantom Lord guild shattered open, and a colossal, domineering fist struck those who were laughing.

"Wow, ahh!"

"Ugh!"...

As the echoes of their screams reverberated, bodies were sent hurtling into the air, crashing against the walls of Phantom Lord, which yielded under the force of a colossal fist.

A commanding voice cut through the chaos, "Do you find amusement in mocking Fairy Tail, solely because of your own inadequacies?"

All eyes within the guild turned towards the entrance, where a striking young man stood, his presence demanding attention.

"Who are you? How dare you intrude upon the domain of the Phantom Lord and stir up trouble?" The members of Phantom Lord rose in unison, fixing their gaze upon the figure of Kyros standing at the threshold.

"Fairy Tail Guild - Kyros!"
