Chapter 155

The Toyko Area citizens were angry and they made sure to let their voices be heard . Noah's question only added fuel to their seething anger, their deafening objections and curses rang clearly in his ears .

Seitens.h.i.+ bitterly smiled as she closed her eyes, she couldn't stop Noah in time .

The citizens were unaware of the explosive kegs they were all sitting on .

Only Seitens.h.i.+ who more or less knew Noah reckoned this won't be easy to clean up .

The Fairy Tail members weren't staggered by the fuming mob, they cast their eyes on the leader they trusted .

This is the faith they had in Noah after seeing the back-breaking work he did for all of them over a year .

"Are those your answers?"

Noah asked simply, his voice chilled the surrounding temperature as the mob piped down .

Noah roamed his eyes over all the citizens here, his dark and deep eyes shaking them to the core . Out of instinct, they lowered or averted their gazes .

Noah glanced over everyone and he continued .

"Very well, I have bore witness to your answers . Today, let me fulfill your requests . "

Noah stared at Seitens.h.i.+ and he dropped the bomb on them .

"Seitens.h.i.+-sama, all Fairy Tail members will relinquish their right and partic.i.p.ation in the lottery for bunker entry tickets . Let them have the quotas!"

Seitens.h.i.+ was stunned .

Not only that, the citizens didn't expect this turnaround .

"Ohhhh!"

They started cheering after exchanging looks of disbelief .

Despite depriving others of their chances and rights to life, indirectly killing others for their own selfish gains, the 1000 or so riot members weren't saddled with guilt . Instead, they cheered as if they just won the lottery or something .

Although the Fairy Tail members had different thoughts, they didn't question Noah's judgment .

They trusted Fairy Tail absolutely .

Even when Noah's decision sounded like he cut off their lifelines, they didn't think so .

Noah chortled when he saw the citizens cheering together .

Noah dropped another bomb .

"Also, Fairy Tail and its members will not partic.i.p.ate in the Adjuvant or any related Tokyo Area defense operations . "

"What?!"

Seitens.h.i.+ went pale .

Finally, it struck the citizens, the implications of Noah's declaration . They started sweating cold bullets .

It didn't take long for all the protest members to get the larger picture .

Fairy Tail is a special organization . Without a doubt, every Initiator or Promoter that bears the insignia were the top, if not the best at their jobs .

Noah personally vetted the promoters, only worthy and capable promoters were allowed to pair with the cursed children he trained and reared . This is the major reason why the Promoters and Initiators from Fairy Tail are all excellent and talented individuals .

Because of the unique way Fairy Tail operated . Numerous external civil defense officers came in droves, bolstering Fairy Tail's already staggering firepower . They were also powerful and capable external IP who joined .

In Tokyo Area, almost half of all veteran civil defense officers were affiliated with Fairy Tail .

In absolute number, civil defense officers from Fairy Tail also made up a sizeable portion of the active civil defense officer's population .

If Fairy Tail bows out, the Tokyo Area defense force will be left in a very precarious situation .

With Fairy Tail out of the picture, the defense operation going forward would be incredibly dangerous, the chances of a total wipe-out is also very high .

Noah's decision would be the last straw that broke Tokyo Area's back .

"Guild master Noah!"

Seitens.h.i.+ raised her voice with Noah .

"How could you?!"

"Why not?"

Noah answered without any emotion .

"They want us dead . Why should I protect people who want us all dead?"

"Bu-but, what does this solve?"

Seitens.h.i.+ said with a panicky tone .

"You're all citizens of Tokyo Area, if it gets destroyed, what about you guys? How will you live?"

"That doesn't concern you, we will handle that ourselves . "

Noah gave her a glance .

"We wouldn't want to waste your time . "

"I . . . "

Seitens.h.i.+ wanted to say something but Noah didn't want to continue listening, he's frankly too tired to deal with this .

Noah addressed the mob .

"I have seen enough of you fools to know that a majority of you are dumber than a nail . As for the smart ones among you, you should know you reap what you sow . "

"Hence, when Tokyo Area gets wiped out and most of you died at the jaws of the Gastreas . Remember, you're the ones who got yourselves in this mess, by pus.h.i.+ng away the power that protected you, you brought this upon yourselves . "

"You people decided it was somehow in your best interest that the ones who put their lives on the lines for your sake should die . "

"You, and no one else dug your own graves . "

"Remember that . . . "

"One more thing . . . "

Noah pulled out his gun and he pulled the trigger on Takuto .

Bang

Takuto's head exploded the moment the large-caliber bullet struck his head . The bullets are anti-tank, imagine what it can do to a human's head, it ain't pretty .

Bang bang bang bang

The Fairy Tail members executed the tied up culprits .

They were absolutely shocked and astounded, including Seitens.h.i.+ .

"Remember this!"

Noah swept his cold eyes over the mob around them .

"This is what happens to people who attacks Fairy Tail!"

Noah led his people away from the area, the mob were too stunned to say or do anything .

"Gyaaahhhh!"

The mob finally regained their senses as they shrieked at the horrifying scene laid out in front of them . The reporters also reported this scene with pale sickly looks .

Seitens.h.i.+ who was protected behind a squad of bodyguards looked at the bodies on the ground and she looked at the direction Noah departed from . She looked like an ent.i.ty of desolation .

Why?

How did things become like this?
