With Bluenote defeated by Fairy Glitter, only Grimoire Heart's guild master Hades remained as a target in the Fairy Tail S-class promotion exam's second stage, Fairy Hunting.
Cana had obtained 85 points, Natsu had 30, and Drake had 25 for cooperating with Cana.
Elfman and Levy's teams had nothing, confirming that they wouldn't pass.
Drake recalled Fal, and Wendy rejoined the two on the ground.
Cana sidled up to Drake, stroking his arm with her finger, saying, "Drake, I'm about to pass. Let's go defeat the enemy general so I can get a few more points, okay~?"
Three dark lines appeared on Drake's forehead, and he swatted Cana's hand away, saying, "Alright, stop learning that stuff from Lucy. I was planning to end this war quickly anyway!"
Drake hadn't actually planned to become an S-class mage. After all, the strongest ninja in the ninja world was a Leaf genin; the S-class title wasn't that important to Drake.
Of course, since he was already here, Drake didn't plan to just stand by and watch.
After thinking for a moment, Drake said to Wendy and Cana, "Leave the direct fight with Precht to me. You guys have a more important task.
It's meaningless to just defeat Precht. His magic power is connected to a powerful magic called 'Grimoire Heart.' If that magic isn't destroyed, Precht will regenerate indefinitely.
That magic should be on the ship. While I'm fighting Precht, you find that magic and destroy it."
This was the importance of intelligence. Precht was strong, but what allowed him to repeatedly defeat the protagonist group in the original story was "Grimoire Heart."
Long ago, Mavis's life had been taken by the curse on Zeref, but Mavis herself also bore the same "immortality" curse.
So Precht discovered that Mavis's body still had a heartbeat. As he tried to find a way to preserve Mavis's body, "Fairy Heart" was accidentally born.
In the end, even Precht was horrified by the taboo he had created, so he sealed it beneath the guild.
But it was likely that the seeds of darkness had been planted in Precht's heart since then.
Later, using "Fairy Heart" as a reference, he created Grimoire Heart. It not only provided power to the airship but was also connected to Precht, giving him nearly unlimited magic power.
But at the same time, "Grimoire Heart" became Precht's weakness.
Cana's eyes lit up; if what Drake said was true, she was definitely confident in getting those fifteen points.
Drake quickly reminded her, "There are definitely other Grimoire Heart mages on the ship. You have to be careful."
Wendy clenched her little fist, saying, "I'll definitely do my best!"
Wendy didn't really feel involved in this exam; Drake had practically solved everything, and all she had done was follow along.
So she secretly resolved to perform well this time.
Drake nodded, saying, "Then let's get started!"
With that, Drake spread his fiery wings and flew directly towards the airship.
Using magic power perception to lock onto the direction, Drake directly opened a skylight in the airship, landing in a large hall.
Looking up, Drake looked at the old man sitting on the throne.
"Nice to meet you, Second Guild Master!" Drake greeted.
Precht raised his eyelids, saying, "Oh, it's that brat from Makarov's guild! Don't call me by that name. I'm just Grimoire Heart's guild master, Hades!"
"You abandoned your identity as a Fairy Tail member? That means I don't have to hold back!" Drake said casually.
Precht smiled mockingly, saying, "How arrogant! It seems defeating Bluenote has made you overestimate your strength. Then let me, on behalf of Makarov, teach you what true power is!"
With that, Precht moved his index finger, drawing in front of him.
Layers of magic circles opened up around Drake, even covering the ceiling above him.
Drake retreated before the magic power erupted, but as Drake retreated, magic circles appeared in front of and behind him at the same time.
Boom!
As if a large amount of explosives had been detonated, fire engulfed Drake.
A hand reached out from the smoke, and with a wave of the arm, the smoke was torn apart like a curtain, revealing Drake unharmed inside.
Precht definitely qualified to be called a magic master. He had just used "Amaterasu" rune magic circles.
It was actually a very ordinary magic; even ordinary mages could easily master the lowest-level "Amaterasu First Style."
But just like with plant-based magic, some people used it to create a Wood Release: Advent of a World of Flowering Trees, while others could only use it to create Binding Blue Silver Grass.
It wasn't so easy to unleash a higher-level Amaterasu magic circle. The difficulty increased almost exponentially with the number of magic circles.
The "Amaterasu Twenty-Eight Style" that Precht had just used was probably something that not all of the Ten Wizard Saints could use.
Drake had released his own magic power in time, which was how he had defended against the magic power impact.
What's more, Drake knew that Precht could use an even stronger "Amaterasu Hundred Style," which was a powerful magic that could shatter Makarov's strongest defensive magic circle, "Three Pillars God," and still leave Makarov unable to fight.
Drake grinned, thinking that he had yet to encounter a magic master like Precht among his enemies.
"This is really... getting me fired up!"
As Drake said this, he activated Dragon Force and charged towards Precht like a blur.
Facing an enemy like Drake, Precht couldn't possibly win by simply sitting there.
So Precht stood up, and a magic chain appeared in his hand. The chain swung, directly lashing out at Drake.
Drake jumped high, dodging the incoming chain. But the chain was formed from magic, which Precht could manipulate with agility.
The chain that had flown out bent in mid-air, continuing to pursue Drake.
Drake twisted his body, dodging the stabbing chain. But the chain swerved like a poisonous snake, directly wrapping around Drake's wrist.
Drake couldn't help but admire this; he had never seen anyone control magic with such precision.
Precht waved his arm, and the chain directly pulled Drake down to the ground.
Drake's feet landed on the ground, shattering the floor of the hall. Drake raised his arm, pulling the magic chain taut, actually trying to pull Precht towards him.
Precht staggered, nearly being pulled over by Drake.
Precht's magic skill was high, but how could his physical fitness compare to Drake's, who was a dragon slayer?
But Precht revealed a knowing smile at this moment. With a loud bang, Drake was directly blasted away.
Precht's dark chain could explode when it bound an enemy; Drake had taken a loss because he hadn't been careful.
Drake somersaulted in mid-air, landing on the ground and looking at Precht with even greater battle intent.
