And so it begins

Yang wouldn't have enough magic to be able to do anything, her Phoenix body dissipating as she would be breathing heavily and her gauntlets would disappear, going back to where they were. She would not be able to do anything but watch as the attack is sent towards them.

Shisei would fly towards where he would feel the magic coming from, moving swiftly through the air, going nearer the ground as he would try to get close to see what is going on.

Ryoichi looks to the side, seeing his guildmates exhausted and an attack moving towards them. His body sparks with the lightning once more, moving his fist towards the ground in a fast motion, as if he's about to crush the ground, but instead, he sent a wheel of lightning towards the lightning which was sent by the dark mage, trying to hit it and ease the damage done on the wood wall. He lets out a soft sigh and walk a bit infront, towards the dark mage, "Angelise, Yang, take the guild master and the other girl away.." he says out, clenching his fists after saying that. His body sparks with lightning slightly once more, preparing for a battle even though he knows that he would be ended in one blow

Angelise immediately created a small wall of fire in front of herself Tifania trying to help her in blocking the attacks, making it easier to her. "Things doesn't work that way Ryoichi-kun." She rushed in front of Emilia and Tifania as her body suddenly started getting coated in flames as she glared towards the leader. "We might as well go all out. Nothing else we can do. Also I think it is obvious that he won't let us escape easily." She got ready for battle as she said so.

Michael would arrive at position where others were. He would spot Emilia knocked out knowing what happened to her, but he would also see others knocked down people. As he turned towards leader and master of invading forces he knew that things wont go well. He would take a deep breath in starting to focus remaining silently on location noticing that joined forces are coming from the south under leadership of Isabela and Rune Knights captain.

However leader would not simply go down without a fight. He would start to unleash great amount of magical power creating shockwave of darkness towards the others. Ryoichi, if smart and wise, would not go closer to him as he prepared to unleash attack of great force.

Shisei would flyinto the area, seeing the darkness shockwave as he would move closer, though staying in the air, and send one of his palms out as he would create a small darkness wall to protect them from the shockwave saying; "Dark Deflect, Darkness Cage." The Darkness Cage spell would activate as he points his other palm towards the leader as dark tendrils would shoot out of the ground and attempt to grab onto the person, he would attempt to knock his concentration on the shockwave as well as bind him with the tendrils as well.

Ryoichi looks at the Dark mage as he prepares for an attack, which leads him not to take steps towards him anymore, instead, will stand on one place and activates his lightning body, preparing to move fast just in case, "Prepare to move away!" he says out with a bit louder voice to his guildies behind him

Angelise would see that something bad might be coming soon, she quickly attempted to turn back and take a grip on both of Emilia and Tifania, although they were heavy for her she managed to somehow jump away a good distance with them if success, she wanted to place them in a safe location before going to back to see if anyone else needs help.

Darkness magic used by Shisei did nothing more but fuel magic even more as it was absorbed by darkness created by man. Leader now prepared and charged released shockwave in cone in front of himself. Immense power and attack force was a true power of an S rank. Because of size literally everyone would be affected by it.

Michael not willing to let everyone so weakened get hit by something that is certain death would start to gather his power to maximum. Black light would start to become stronger and thicker around him as his eyes started to partialy glow with light. Michael would dash in front of his guildmates but not being able to shield Shisei because of size as well he would shout. "Omega Drive, Pillars of Creation!" In colaboration with his drive of God Eater and Duranin enchantment of his Ascension Michael created three large pillars of black and blue magical energy in front of everyone blocking the blast in order to protect his guildmates and potentialy Shisei if he moves in range of it.

After an attack leader would be impressed and shocked thinking that he already delt with all strong enemies, however he did not fear as he reached into his inner pocket of his robes taking out purple lacrima certanly preparing something.

Shisei would see his magic having no effect on the leader, he would move down from up in the air to the others. He would then notice Michael moving quickly towards the ground, wondering if he had a plan to defend against the attack coming, he moved in closer to them a bit faster than before.

Ryoichi notices the upcoming attack, "Damn they wont get away in time.." he would turn around, and since his lightning form was already activated, he would dash with full speed towards Yang and tries to grab her with him, following Angelise, "We need to get as many as we can to safety.." he says out

Angelise made her way to safety making sure that she is behind Michael which took the blast "Took him long enough.." She muttered lowly, placing them down far away from where they were. "Please take care of her I need to go help them." She said to Tifania which barely had any fight in her left, although she knows that all the little fry were defeated which made her say that. "Ryoichi-kun, help them when needed." She said as she took her blade out and started channeling her magical power in it, she knew how hard it would be for Michael to block such a blast, but seeing that hes holding it off she was preparing something while waiting for it to go off and her plan was to send it as the attack was ending for an ambush, for now she just waited.

Michael would spot strange looking lacrima in mans hands only to realise it was far worse than previous one. He would drop his defense after blast finished taking escape route towards the Rune Knights and others, while doing so he would attempt to grab Shisei's leg and toss him backwards as well knowing what would happen if he stayed there.

Man would toss lacrima in front of himself as he started to channel magical energy into it to break the seal lacrima would start to levitate glowing and incrising in size.

As Michael approached closest he could to others he would make sure that everyone is behind him before he spoke. "Long story short, he is preparing to fire mini Etherion cannon at us. There is no choice to defend against it with what we have here..... unless..." Michael remained silent for a moment before he spoke again lowly. "There is no other choice... this might be the last thing I do..." After that he would shout towards others in back as he spoke. "Prepare your strongest defensive spells and remain behind me or you will be turned to dust!"

Shisei not expecting to be grabbed by the foot would be sent backwards towards the others, he would regain his balance as he would levitate looking to Michael half annoyed, hearing his reason. He would prepare his Dark Deflect spell, putting as much magic in it as he can. He would levitate just above the ground behind Michael, guessing he has an idea. He would have his spell on standby until he is needed to release it.

Ryoichi's body would remain sparking with lightning, but the lightning which surrounded his body would now go to his hands, forming chains of lightning between his hands, preparing to makie it larger, "This better work... If not.." he lets out a soft sigh after saying that, "It was fun with you people.."

Angelise would keep concentrating her magical power to her sword as she suddenly stabbed it in the ground close to Michael and the others, when Michael gives the signal she would make a huge, reinforced wall of flame, it seemed really stronger than the one before, and it seemed the she used a really good amount of magical power in using it.

As lacrima started to develop fully into weapon of mass destruction Michael would know that key moment is now. He would shout "Now! Place all the strongest spells you have to defend!" While waiting for them to do Michael would know what he has to do, he would step away being in front of defensive spells instead of behind them like others. He would raise his right index finger above his head towards the sun as he pointed a thumbs up towards everyone behind him giving them wide and friendly smile before his complete magic started to disappear from him forming six pillars behind him, twice as larger and stronger than previous ones. His drive and aura disappeared as he stood there waiting for blast to come.

Shisei would send out his wall of darkness magic, moving his palms forwards. He would hold his magic in place, putting it with Michael Pillars, hoping his wall will actually do some good. He would only be able to wait for the weapon to be sent off to see if they actually succeed with it or not.

Ryoichi spreads his arms a bit, sending out a chain of lightning towards the pillars to make it's durability greater, hopefully.

As blast arrived towards them Michael would start to inhale to attempt to consume etherion particles. Even that he knows that he is not capable to consume elements he knew that it was only way to reduce the damage to make himself a barrier.

After few seconds barriers would start to disappear being shattered one by one but combined effort of everyone as well as Michael who consumed immense amount of power made them survive.

Not even a second passed as Michael already started to cough. After few coughs he coughed large amount of blood as he dropped on his knees. Despite consuming large amount of energy standing on front of blast without magic showed effect to his body which was in terrible shape.

Michael would force himself up as he started to levitate because of sheer force of magical energy inside of him. Black light would appear around him instantly being of immense power and strenght. But Michael was unable to move, not to mention to attempt to fight. However he had an idea. After he landed on the ground he would kneel down placing his right hand under himself preparing a large scale magic circle around everyone behind him. "Divine Gift!"

After shouting almost whole magical energy he contained was released from magical circle towards everyone. Huge amount of magic power was being transfered to everyone not only returning their magical power to max but going even beyond. They would feel immense surge of power as well as gaining affinity of being God Slayers for certain amount of time however without ability to consume element but having affinity and black element of God Slayer which is common.

Leader standing alone was suprised and shocked as he fell down on his knees confused about what is going on anymore.

After his great effort Michael would fall down on ground looking lifeless having almost none magic inside of his body anymore.

Shisei would suddenly dash off, wondering what everyone else if going to do. He would move towards the leader, going at top speed, levitating just above the ground as he would stop just in front of him and wave at him saying: "Hi there, big fan of the whole giant shooty thingy. Never seen someone push him to that limit, good one!" He would smirk as he would then dash off into the sky to create distance, just cause he wants to watch what happens next.

Yang would feel her magic rushing back to her and then some, she would get up looking to what just happened and looking at Michael seeing him lifeless on the floor as she would rush to his side to see what happened, having been a little out of it having almost run out of magic too. She would kneel beside him, checking to see if he is ok.

Angelise would focus a huge amount of Magical power to the tip of her sword, which was even stronger than before because of Michael's buff. She pointed her sword in his direction, as the concentrated and condensed magical power turns into a kind of a fire laser which's radius was smaller, but it was both faster and much stronger. Attempting to do a huge amount of damage on the enemies leader.

Ryoichi would move his arms next to his hips, feeling the power flowing through him, his body suddenly bursts and is surrounded with lightning. He raises his hand up, starting to form a large lightning ball. Once he manages to form it, he would slash down his hand, sending the ball towards the Dark mage, "Raging bolt.."

Michael was clearly NOT OK from the second Yang checked on him.

Becuase of confusion and sheer difference in power before and after this event leader was shocked by power they presented. Not only did Angelise's and Ryoichi's attacks delt large amount of energy combined efforts of other mages as well as Rune Knights managed to subdue and slowly capture the leader ending the invasion.
