The Tale of the Death God and Holy Dragon Slayer

Chapter 178

Seth (POV)
Everyone fires off a blast of their respective magic aimed towards Byro.
Lucy- No don't attack! Magic won't work!
Byro- Such fools.
Byro nullifies all of the magic headed towards him.
Grey- Huh? What happened? Did he just block all of them?
Erza- Even with our numbers?
Akuma- Magic attacks don't work on the bastard.
Seth- This'll be interesting to say the least.
Grey- I think you mean annoying.
Happy- Right? Now I'm just a lame ol talking cat.
Byro- One spell or a thousand; it makes no difference. In my presence, wizards cease to be wizards entirely.
Happy- What about cats?
Erza- There's still one option left.
Seth- Heh, good old fashion fists.
Byro- How arrogant. I've been taught to fight barehanded against fifty opponents at once. You won't even warm me up.
Natsu- Well well, sounds like the gezzer is all fired up too.
Tsukiko- Please stay focused. He's a very proficient fighter as you know first hand.
Grey- Sounds like a challenge.
The clock piece resonates in an unstable way and frees itself from Byro's hand. All the clock pieces glow in a yellow hue and fly off following the clock hand.

Michelle- Big sis! Look....the clock!
Lucy- I see it but what's happening?
All the pieces come together as one making repeated deep dark clock sound.

Akuma- Ah damn! My ears!
Natsu- My ears are bleeding!
Happy- Thats some alarm clock.
Erza- The tomb is collapsing.
Lucy- It can't be..... Why now?
Grey- This ain't the time to space out!
Seth- We gotta go before this becomes our tomb too!
That is unti I smell a familiar scent. Natsu looks at me and gives me the same look.
Erza- What's the matter Seth?
Seth-..........Midnight!
Erza- What?!
A part of the tomb opens up and the assholes make their long awaited appearance.

Natsu- No way?
Akuma- Friends of yours?
Seth- Not by I a long shot. I kicked the dude in the middle ass awhile back before we went to Edolas. The Oracion Seis.
Happy- That's not good.
Grey- I was hoping to never see them again, but here they are.
Erza- And it appears they have new members.
The guy who looks like a slot machine talks first.
Slot machine- All lined up and hot, hot, hot! It's true you've met em before, but things sure have changed! May I present to you the new and improved Neo-Oracion Seis!
NEGLHS- Did he say the Neo-Oracion Seis?!
Midnight- You seem surprised Alighieri. A great deal has changed since the last time we crossed paths. For instance, I no longer go by Midnight. From now on, I ask that you refer to me as Brain the Second.
Seth- That's stupid as fuck dude.
Midnight- Even after all these years, you still mock me with that mouth of yours.
Seth- You're damn right. So tell me Midnight, how do you plan on destroying the world this time huh?
Midnight- Damn you Alighieri. But if you must know, I have but one single wish. I wish to make my father's dream a reality and that is destroy all that has formed in this world. Plus take revenge against the one who killed my father. You Seth Alighieri.
Seth- Figures. Why am I not surprised. Still spouting the same shit your old man did. You know, I did the world a service by taking out Brain or Zero or whatever the hell you calm him. I'd do it again too if I got the chance.
Midnight- Why you.........Fine. Mouth off all you want. We don't need your help anymore. Your services as well as your life are done!
I dart off towards Midnight and his crew. I'm followed by Natsu, Akuma, Dan, and Byro.
Midnight- Lousy insects. Look at how they swarm.
Midnight fires off a magic attack but Dan gets in front of us.
Dan- I'm gonna blast your attack right back at ya!
The attack makes direct contact the shield.

Dan- Hah!.....Wait wha?
Instead of blasting back, an explosion happens striking us all.
Byro- You guild rats stay back.
Seth- What'd you say old man?! Midnight is mine!
Byro- All manners of magic are ineffective against-
He gets cut off by the same magic attack. It blows him back but I'm still standing.
Slot machine- Hahaha! Not only did you distort the range of Byro's magic but you attacked him at the same time. You're an absolute genius, Lord Brain!
Midnight- You may not be aware of this but once the Infinity Clock bears the seal of a wizard...:.it becomes their property. (Teleports to on top of the clock) You know what that means don't you Alighieri? Now that it bears our seal, the clock belongs to us.
Lucy- That's not fair! You can't just show up and steal it for yourself!
Cobra- I can hear it. Your growing anger and confusion. It's building up within you.
Racer- Ain't that a laugh.
Angel- Unfortunately, we Dark Ones are forbidden from touching the Infinity Clock. Therefore, we had to have you assemble it for us.
Slot machine- There you have it folks. That's how ya play the game!
Byro- Curse you!
Lucy- So we were being used? No way...If that's true, then what about my dad? Why would he do this?
Happy- I'm getting shivers up my spine. These guys are super scary.
Erza- The magic power I'm sensing from them....
Grey- It's on a whole different level than before.
Natsu- We can still take em.
Cobra- We don't let anyone dance in the palm of our hands. You should feel honored.
Natsu- Shut your yap!
Natsu releases a Fire Dragon: Roar but the scythe dude transports in the way and blocks it with shield of his own magic.
Seth- Diffusing Natsu's Roar like that.....impressive. Wind Magic eh?
Scythe guy- Indeed......However, it is nothing as mild as mere "wind." My magic is strong.....like a brewing storm.
Mandy comes flying down and lands on my head.
Mandy- Seth, that guy is very familiar. I recognize him from somewhere.
Slot machine- Of course you do! You fought him back when he was with Eisenwald! The gentlemen before you is none other than Erigor!
Erigor- These days I go by Grim Reaper.
Azazel: Hey that's my nickname! You bastard! Lucky I don't come in this story and beat your ass!
Natsu- That's Erigor?!
Grey- Not again.
Erza- He's like a completely different person.
Happy- I guess people can change after all.
Seth- Oh Erigor......should've stayed gone buddy. You didn't put up much of a fight last time. The result is going to be no different.
Cobra- Come on Brain. How long are we going to waste our time with these idiots?
Angel- Don't forget we have an important goal to achieve.
Midnight- I am well aware. However, we have a score to settle. They humiliated us seven years ago. So now it's our turn to return the favor.
Seth- Bring it on douchebag!! Let's see what you've got!
Indigo: That's the end of this one. Hopefully you guys enjoyed it. Later indigo fam. Peace.
