章 11: New Everything!

4...3...2...1... BAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGG!!!!

No one knew what happened. They only saw a colorful flash and penetrate the Phantom Lord mobile base. All the people inside the barrier were shocked, wondering what happened. When the smoke finally scattered, all the could see was a nearly annihilated Phantom Guild. Above the completely wrecked Phantom base was a man, floating in the air still holding the red sniper rifle. Like an emperor looking down on everyone, there was an oppressive aura around him.

The blast destroyed many residence, including the building Fairy Tail. Everything is wrecked, it was an unsightly sight to behold. Everyone was silent, silently looking at Jhin feeling like an ant in front of a gigantic mountain. Even though the system suppressed his aura, it was still knee softening when they looked at his cold chilling eyes.

"Jhin!" Shouted Mira while tears streamed from her cheeks. And was Jhin who watching her cry suddenly felt a pang on his chest, making him feel stifled. He never felt that way before.

"Ding! killed..."

There hundreds of notifications that sounded but Jhin ignored them all. His injuries from the recoil already healed from his strong vitality and his Healing Magic he bought from the system, even his broken ribs were reconnected, like a nothing happed to him.

All were killed, even Jose, a member of the Ten Wizard Saints was not spared, his corpse was not even intact. Jhin was intending to leave but he suddenly heard a small 'Badump', the sound of an extremely weak heartbeat.

He was currently looking at a heavily injured man. The man was nearly naked full of bruises, half a foot to his grave. The interesting part was that, Jhin sensed a familiar aura from the man. The Slayer Aura, although he has not bought that element yet, he was pretty sure. It was the Iron Dragon Slayer Magic!

Although it was a Slayer Magic, it was pretty weak. It doesn't even come to a third of Jhin's normal Iron magic. It was the same to Natsu's it doesn't even have a fifth of Jhin's, truly pathetic. Like comparing a small lake to an ocean, it was really pathetic, of course, in Jhin's perspective. Jhin released the barrier so all the guild members could move freely.

Jhin was not a cold blooded and ruthless man. So he descended, a green mist appeared on his hand and patted the chest of the half- dead man. The green mist slowly engulfed the man's body until his shadow could be the only seen. After 10 minutes, Jhin removed the green mist and dashed to Mira who still had a teary eyes.

...

Jhin's clothes was wet, full of tears. Mira was hugging her tightly like a glue that will never come off. Everyone already expressed their thanks to him. Jhin said not to worry about the Guild Building, he already requested the system to build a better looking and larger guild building. So all of them did nothing but rest and just sit on the ground, smiling wildly. Some of the people with families went home to check on them.

According to Mira, it was night when the Phantom Guild attacked so no one was hurt. The Master was going to let it go as the Council did not approve them to attack. But the thin wall broke when they saw Shadow Gear, the team of Levy, tied on a tree in the center of the town.

Natsu and the master who was holding back because of the Council snapped and declared a war against Phantom Guild. But when they attacked, the master suffered a sneak attack from an undetected enemy that caused his magic to be drained. As a result they retreated, then again, Lucy was abducted while she was walking through town by 2 members of the Element Four, the black ops of the Phantom Guild.

So Natsu went to save Lucy. Jose told Lucy it was her father who ordered them to kidnap her and return her home. But it seems that she kicked Jose's 2 eggs hard enough to enrage him and attacked Fairy Tail with all his got. He fired the first bullet of Magical Convergent Cannon: Jupiter but it was blocked by Erza's strongest armor, she was heavily injured due to it. It was then that Jhin contacted her and you know what happened next.

As Jhin listened to the story, the temperature of the room kept decreasing. All that was near them or passed by them shuddered. Only Mira did not feel anything was off. Mira eventually released her grip and went to help.

...

"This sure is a big mess. Are you sure this is done by Jhin? Isn't this a little bit of going overboard. Anyway, did he say how he will re-build our guild House here?" asked Makarov, full of doubt. When he woke up, he rushed to the guild only to see this.

"Just trust Jhin. He said He'll do something about it." said Mira, full of blind trust.

Looking at all the destruction, Lucy felt like crying again. She and Erza rushed to the location of the guild when they heard the explosion from the safe house the obese man took her, it was the place Erza was resting.

"Welcome home, Lucy!" she heard a voice behind her. It was Levy and her team, Shadow Gear. "Sorry for worrying you, Lu-chan." Levy continued with a wide and warm smile.

"N-no. That was actually my..." Lucy who heard her was again near to tears and her self blame deepened.

"I heard. But no one is putting the blame on you, Lu-chan." interrupted Levy.

"On the other hand, I apologize for not being any help at all." said Reedus while scratching his head in embarrassment.

"Lucy." said Makarov, hands behind his back. "Happy moments, sad moments... we can't share all of them. But whenever possible, we shoulder them together. That's the true meaning of a guild. An individual happiness is everyone's happiness. An individuals wrath is everyone's wrath. And an individual's tears is everyone's tears.

"You have nothing to feel guilty about. Lucy... You see, such are the true feelings in everyone's heart. Raise your head. You are a member of Fairy Tail." Said Makarov with a soothing and kind voice. Everyone was smiling from ear to ear. And Lucy did not hold back and cried out loud.

Jhin watched with a slight smile. He turned his head to look at the distance, looking at a figure standing from afar.

"Seriously. Jhin! Did you have to go too far?! This is likely to anger the Council. Killing one of the Ten Wizard Saints is already a big crime! Be careful every time and don't let your guard down. Oh wait, maybe imprisonment is just..." Tears flowed on Makarov's cheeks.

"The Council? Let them come, our next building won't be that fragile. And if they don't want to be added as Exp, they better not come." said Jhin arrogantly. All of those who heard him were speechless.

"Also, I would like to move the location of our Guild. There are many future plans I set and this place is pretty narrow." added Jhin coolly.

"Of course we have to move! See those damage you did? It will be expensive to pay, were moving up the hill." said Makarov, still angry.

"Good. Don't worry about those, I'll pay for everything." said Jhin coolly.

"Really? Don't joke around."

"Of course not. See that house over the hill? That's mine, I built it on my own. " Jhin bragged. With his business pride being insulted, how can he back down.

"Okay, you're rich. Pay for everything then, legally. Manage everything here yourself, I'm sure the Council will be here soon. Get ready to be interrogated, I'll go have a deal with them." Makarov was ready to leave when an army, Rune Knight, coincidentally came in.

...

It has already been a week since the incident happened. They questioned or rather, interrogated everyone about what happened. The annihilation of Phantom Guild and Jose Porla apparently held a huge loss of power in the kingdom of Fiore. And seeing how powerful JHin was, the council decided him to be a temporarily substitute for Jose Porla. And since there was an evidence proving that the late Phantom Guild attacked first, the verdict wasn't really severe.

The Guild compensated all the residence that were destroyed and everyone was banned from taking request jobs for two months in which Jhin compensated them. From where he got the money? Of course, from the system. And thanks to that, all of his bits of remaining shop points run out to zero. And also thanks to that, he found another source of SP, he apparently can convert real money to shop points. With the equivalent of 10,000 jewels for a single SP.

Also, the custom made Guild House was done and planted. It was the same as the old one but it is bigger. The defense system was the same with his house, only beings 10 level higher than the host can damage it. It could become a hiding and protection place considering the effectiveness of its defense, no one probably can destroy it, given his current level.

There was also this man called Gajeel Redfox, he was the man Jhin healed who was a half step closer to death. And would have probably died if it wasn't for his Iron Skin. He was also the man who destroyed the guild with spikes, beat the Shadow Gear and tied them to a tree for everyone else to see but he was still allowed to join the guild. But Levy still forgave him, Although some still despise him, it is still okay.

There was also this woman, her name should be... Juvia Lockser. She was one of the so called Element Four that kidnapped Lucy. Gray said that she suddenly attacked him and he beat her. Gray said he did not know why, but the girl suddenly turned lovesick to him. Gray doesn't know, so 'I' don't know either.

...

Jhin is currently watching a middle-aged man work in his table in the shadows. The middle aged man is relatively tall with black eyes and slicked back blond hair and a matching, extremely trim mustache, and a rather firm, square jaw. The man's hair is kept extremely neat and trim, and he has a penchant for wearing rather expensive tailored suits.

"You must be Jude Heartfilia, Lucy's father? You sure are hardworking." Jhin said casually and came out of the shadows, startling the middle aged man.

"Who are you! How did you get inside?" asked Jude.

"The name is Jhin Fernandez, a nobody. I came here to say something to you, a lot actually, but it seems there's not enough time." said Jhin in a relaxed manner.

"What do you want to say?"

"Nothing much, actually. It's just that you were quite lucky this time. If she wasn't one of us, I would have annihilated you, like the one I did to Phan- whatever guild it was called. You should thank her, but remember, there is no next time." said Jhin coldly and disappeared, merging with the shadows.

The middle aged man remained standing on the same spot for a minute, his back was still covered in sweat. He only awoke from his daze when a familiar voice entered his ears.

"It's Lucy. I have returned, father." said a voice by the door.
