The monolith that looked like it’s going to pierce the heaven with its height, Monolith 32 .

  Unlike the other monoliths, Monolith 32 lost its dark luster, it’s a structure with white spots of corrosion .

  This was one of the Monolith that protected the Tokyo Area from Gastrea invasion for 5 years . Now, it was emitting an eerie sound .

  Creak

  While the citizens were far away from the location of Monolith 32, they could hear a shrill noise coming from the tower .

  The citizens looked in that direction and they saw it .

  Monolith 32, rather, the top of that monolith started crumbling .

  Thud thud thud

  From top to bottom, the cracks widened until the monolith started breaking apart . It was like an invisible giant gave it the final push that destroyed the monolith .

  Boom boom boom

  The bits of the monolith crashed to the ground with thunderous booms . The corroded varanium were raining down like a meteor storm .

  Due to the sheer height of the monolith, the crumbling bits looked like they were falling at an incredibly slow rate .

  Boom boom boom boom boom

  The fragments of the monolith made violent contact with the ground below . Buildings, trees, equipment, all were crushed to bits .

  Crumble crumble

  Dust shot up into the air as the ensuing gust started spreading with the monolith as the center of event .

  A jet of mushroom-shaped dust pillar rose up, it threatened to cover the entire Toyko Area with its fallout . It was like a giant smoke signal that signaled the start of a war .

  "Ho-how . . . what . . . "

  Noah and Kisara said nothing . Meanwhile, Rentaro mumbled with a dazed look .

  "This is impossible . . . "

  There was still a day left in the estimated destruction date .

  Did Seitenshi’s scientists mess up the calculations?

  "It’s the wind!"

  Noah pointed his lips at the pillar of dust that swayed in the wind .

  "The wind, that’s what toppled the monolith . "

  Kisara reacted .

  "Rentaro-kun!"

  Kisara yelled at Rentaro .

  "Quick! The third Kanto is about to begin!"

  "Noah!"

  Rentaro looked anxiously at Noah .

  "Are you really not going to help?!"

  Noah gave him one last glance and he turned his back on Rentaro . That’s his answer .

  "Damn!"

  Rentaro cursed as he dashed out of Noah’s room . He’s heading in Monolith 32’s direction .

  Area 40 was the closest region to monolith 32, the authorities were ready to intercept the Gastrea horde that’s about to descend on them .

  Without Fairy Tail and their immense fighting power . The defensive force is less impressive than expected especially when the snubbed civil defense officers also chose to sit this one out .

  The Self-Defense Force was the vanguard of this defensive battle .

  If they can win, all would be well .

  If they lost, the remaining Adjuvants who chose to fight will be facing the Gastrea that breached the Self Defense force’s defenses .

  It won’t be a pretty sight to say the least .

  "Seriously, you’re not going?"

  Kisara asked Noah, she continued while looking into the distance .

  "Without Fairy Tail, the Adjuvants stand no chance against the Gastreas . "

  "So?"

  Noah talked, he didn’t turn back to her .

  "You want me to find the saint in my heart to go and save a bunch of people who would rather see us dead?"

  Kisara bitterly laughed after a brief pause .

  "If I said that, would be lying to my own heart . "

  Noah raised his head in confusion .

  "What do you mean?"

  "Hmm?"

  Kisara mumbled .

  "I admire you very much, you still have the chance to protect your comrades and oyur family . "

  Kisara left the room with that parting sentence .

  Noah closed his eyes, he fell into contemplation .

  Kisara changed .

  With her hatred fading, she started recalling memories with a clearer mind .

  The success of the transplant operation must have brought her out of a dark place .

  Fairy Tail, main building . . .

  This is where the guild members gathered for quests, they took on jobs or passed up completed assignments here . Their rewards and accomplishments are also dished out here .

  There’s a notice board that was adjacent to the main door, anyone walking in would spot it immediately .

  Noah pushed open the main door .

  "Guild master!"

  Almost all the guild members were here, when they saw Noah, they greeted him in unison .

  Noah nodded as he arrived in front of a giant screen .

  This is the electronic display they used to display critical info and news from Tokyo Area .

  The screen was showing the scene after Monolith 32 crumbled .

  Normally, it’s hard to get live footage of an ongoing battlefield .

  But, Noah ordered his subordinates to install a drone that can relay audio and visual information near monolith 32’s airspace .

  This is how they got live feed from the battlefield .

  The thick dust clouds spread far and wide, covering the entire Tokyo Area .

  The Self Defense force were swept up by the dust .

  Under poor visual conditions, the soldiers were about to face off against the sea of monsters .

  Roar

  Howl

  Hiss

  The high-performance drone accurately transmitted the battle cries of the monsters there .

  Through the screen, he also saw the hulking monster protected by swarms of Gastreas . The horde of monster was heading to Tokyo Area while led by that sinister figure .

  Noah slowed revealed a cold gleam in his eyes .

  "Aldebaran, the right-hand of Taurus . "……
