Holistic Fantasy-Chapter 159
Chapter 159
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 . "
