Chapter 343: Extra Ch 5 : Fairy Tail Academy 2
The Next Day.
The atmosphere in the entire classroom was extremely tense.
Everyone had huddled into the corners of the room, trembling as they watched the confrontation between the blond-haired boy and the blue-haired boy.
"Th-this is Jellal, a transfer student from Paradise High..." Happy, who looked suspiciously like a blue cat, stammered out the introduction before quickly scurrying off to the side.
"Well, well, I never expected to see you here... Je-llal~," Noel said through gritted teeth, enunciating each syllable.
"It truly is a troublesome twist of fate, Noel," Jellal replied coldly from the podium, his expression just as unpleasant.
It was as if a bolt of wild lightning suddenly tore through the air, sparking an invisible storm of tension.
Noel, seated in his chair, and Jellal, standing on the podium, glared at each other—completely unabashed in displaying their killing intent.
"Did you tell Lia about me going on a date with that girl last week? Are you trying to get me killed, you bastard?!"
"No shit. Why else would I tell Lia if I didn't want you dead? Don't think I don't know you've been running your mouth about my business, you moron!"
"You're the one who screwed me over last time! I almost ended up having tea with God thanks to you!!"
"Well, what a joyous occasion that would've been—one less menace in the world!!"
"#%&*..."
Noel and Jellal were now hurling insults at each other without a shred of dignity.
By the time they started dragging up embarrassing childhood stories, someone finally stepped forward.
"Alright, that's enough—both of you, stop fighting." Mira said with a gentle, soothing smile as she addressed the two.
"Hmph."
The two glanced at each other, snorted coldly, and turned away at the same time.
Only then did the tense atmosphere in the classroom slowly begin to ease.
"Um... I'm terribly sorry for interrupting the class."
As the air finally began to circulate again, a pink-haired woman with two fluffy sheep horns peeked in from the doorway and spoke nervously.
"What's the matter, Miss Aries?" Happy, standing at the podium, asked the pink-haired woman.
"Um... something terrible has happened... I'm really sorry..."
..............
In the courtyard of Fairy Tail Academy—
Macao, Wakaba, and Makarov were all unconscious, pinned to a large tree.
Makarov, in particular, had lost all his clothing except for a few strategically placed slips of paper that barely covered his essentials.
"We have to get them down quickly," Wendy said anxiously, her kind heart unable to bear the sight.
"Who on earth did this?"
"Do you even need to ask...?"
"Those bastards from Phantom Academy?"
Noel's expression darkened.
He picked up a long strip of paper tied to Makarov—which trailed onto the ground—and read it aloud:
"This is payback from before. We'll be paying you a visit after school today. Get your necks cleaned and ready to die. — Gajeel, Phantom Academy."
"It's a challenge! A manly one!" Elfman exclaimed with fiery excitement.
Levy, sweating beside him, muttered, "That's not the part you should be getting excited about..."
"What should we do? It's my fault... It's all because I helped Erza hold on to her glasses..."
Wendy suddenly started feeling inexplicably guilty, looking like she was about to cry.
Riiip.
Noel tore the paper strip into shreds and tossed it aside.
With a cold tone, he said,
"It's one thing if they mess with the old man—not that big of a deal. But… to dare harm our tree? That's something we absolutely won't stand for!"
"That's what you're mad about??"
Wendy and Lucy's faces twisted into expressions of utter confusion.
"Of course!!"
Noel turned to them with a dead-serious expression.
"That tree is one of my go-to spots for my daily naps! Not to mention it's the shortcut I use whenever I sneak out of school. That tree's done a lot for me—we must repay its kindness!"
"....."
Wendy and Lucy had no idea what kind of expression was appropriate anymore.
"This means war!!"
..............
Dusk.
The students of Fairy Tail Academy had gathered on the field with Noel at the center.
In the distance, several figures were slowly approaching.
"They're here?"
"Only five of them? Pretty bold."
"That's manly!"
As the group murmured among themselves, the five from Phantom Academy arrived.
"Hehehe, here we are," said Gajeel with a wicked grin, leading the group and staring down the Fairy Tail students.
It was only then that everyone noticed—Mira had been tied to a metal pole by the Phantom group.
"Nee-chan?!"
"Mira?!"
"Don't you dare move, trash."
One of the Phantom Academy's Four Elements, Earth, sneered maliciously.
"Sorry, everyone," Mira said with a wry smile.
"This is bad…"
"Elfman's Beast King heart is going to awaken."
"He's been losing control a lot ever since his little sister went abroad…"
While everyone was desperately trying to stop Elfman from going berserk, no one noticed that Noel had already stood up—his hair now streaked with silver.
"Heh… Such tremendous nerve you've got, you insignificant ants." Noel was laughing, but the smile on his face was chillingly cold.
"Die, you bastards. [Proclamation of the God King]—my loyal subordinates, show these lowly scum the greatness of our kind!!"
As Noel's words fell, Natsu and the others had already charged forward.
Gray shouted as he pulled out a penguin-shaped ice maker and started shaking it vigorously.
Countless shards of ice shot toward Phantom:
"Ultimate Ice Maker!!"
Gajeel swung an iron rod at Natsu—but Natsu just flicked his hand, and several bottles of chili sauce flew straight into Gajeel's mouth.
"So much chili sauce?!"
"It's not even about the spice anymore—that's pure evil!"
"Ah, it's already started?"
"Everyone, stop!" Erza, Lucy, and Wendy had just arrived on the scene and were startled by the chaos.
Erza began walking forward slowly, murmuring to herself as she did,
"What's so wrong about being kind to yourself every now and then...?"
"Oh, Erza?"
"Wanna join us?" Natsu and Gray called out, inviting her as soon as they saw her.
"Ugh, leave me alone. I don't have time for this…"
Before Erza could finish rejecting them, the ground beneath her suddenly gave way, and she fell into a hole.
"Ah~!"
"Hmm? Did she just say 'ah'?"
"That was... kind of cute?"
Whew—just as Erza was about to fall into the pit, she suddenly landed in a warm embrace.
Looking up, she saw Noel's charming, devilish smile.
"You alright, my little kitten~?"
"Li-little… kitten?" Erza stammered, her face turning red.
Noel chuckled softly.
"Of course, my little kitten. Come—let us charge into battle together. Your valiant form in the last fight left quite an impression on me."
As he spoke, he gently took off Erza's glasses.
"Ahhh! Erza and Noel are both going berserk now?!"
The Fairy Tail crew nearly dropped their jaws to the ground.
If even one of them went on a rampage, it would be total devastation—two of them together?
That's a full-blown catastrophe!
BOOM!
As everyone stood there stunned, the rampaging Noel and Erza tore through the entire field, knocking friend and foe alike to the ground without discrimination.
"Ugh… this is a complete disaster…"
Lucy, caught in the chaos, twitched helplessly on the ground.
"Alright! Now that the fight's over, let's go celebrate at karaoke tonight. You free, Erza?"
After the battle finally ended deep into the night and they both returned to normal, Noel turned to Erza and asked casually.
"Y-y-yes… o-of course," Erza stammered, still flustered and not fully recovered from Noel's earlier words.
"Alright, it's decided then—an all-nighter tonight!" Noel raised his hand and called out to Natsu, Gray, Wendy, Lucy, and the others around him.
"Yeah! What should we sing?"
"Alright! I'm fired up now!"
"Let's invite Mira to karaoke too, okay?"
"Agreed!"
