### Chapter 63: Magic Power
Witnessing Riku use that terrifying move, *El Thor (Judgment of God)*, to destroy half of Hargeon Port in one blast was one thing.
However, seeing Riku knock down so many people in a single strike was a different kind of shock.
That casual action, as if he just moved his finger and all these people were defeated.
"This guy!"
Lyon's face also turned solemn seeing Riku defeat so many people in one hit.
Seeing this, Sherry and the other two immediately prepared to use Magic. Facing a guy with such frightening fame as Riku left no room for relaxation.
"Fire Dragon's Roar!!"
A violent stream of fire rushed towards Sherry and the other two.
"Wave: Shield!!"
Seeing this, Yuka immediately stood in front of Sherry and Toby, creating a vibration barrier in front of his palms.
BOOM————!!
Natsu's fire was intercepted by the barrier. The three people behind the barrier were unharmed.
"?! Natsu's attack was actually blocked?!"
Lucy and Happy were also surprised. Natsu's roar had very strong attack power; it was rare for someone to block Natsu's attack.
"Such barbaric flames, able to spew fire from the mouth. Seems the rumors about Fairy Tail's Fire Dragon are true. Unexpectedly, the two most prominent figures in the Fiore Kingdom nowadays, 'Thunder God' and 'Fire Dragon', appear here simultaneously. How honored I am."
Yuka said. Although he had been mainly on Galuna Island for the past three years, he occasionally went to Hargeon Port to purchase supplies.
As a mage, he naturally paid attention to news in the Magic world. Since the 'Thunder God' disappeared half a year ago, the 'Fire Dragon' rose to fame, becoming an equally hot mage now.
"Eh?! Not a small fry!!"
Natsu was somewhat surprised. Honestly, he most wanted to deal with Gray's senior brother because that guy looked the strongest at a glance.
But since they were fellow disciples, it wasn't appropriate for him to intervene now. So, dealing with these three guys was just right.
After all, these guys were going to harm his clients. For a guild mage, the client's safety was the top priority during a mission.
"Small fry? We used to be mages of a famous guild too. Lamia Scale, you should have heard of it."
"Lamia Scale?! I've heard of it!!"
Lucy exclaimed upon hearing this. Although Lamia Scale wasn't as famous as Fairy Tail, it was still a guild ranked in the top three in strength in the Fiore Kingdom.
Especially since Lamia Scale guild had Jura Neekis, known as 'Iron Rock', who was one of the Ten Wizard Saints of Ishgar.
Before joining Fairy Tail, she had considered that if she couldn't join Fairy Tail, Lamia Scale would be a primary alternative.
Toby said proudly: "That's right, we have Jura, known as 'Iron Rock', oh oh."
"Who cares!!"
"I don't care which guild's mage you are or whose companion you are. If you want to harm my client, you are hindering my work, and you are also Fairy Tail's enemy. I just need to know this."
Natsu stared at the three with murderous intent in his eyes.
"Riku, leave these three guys to me. You said you'd let me complete the mission."
Riku spread his hands: "Whatever."
Pa!
Hearing Riku wouldn't interfere, Natsu punched his palm, a smile of excitement on his face: "They're mine!!"
Sherry and the others looked somewhat unhappy: "Looks like we are being looked down upon."
"Oh oh!"
The three of them were mages of Lamia Scale guild, elites of the guild. Although they had withdrawn now, being looked down upon by peers was unbearable for any guild mage.
Yuka said: "Sherry, Toby, don't intervene. Leave this guy to me. You go deal with the others!"
"Okay!"
"Oh oh!"
Toby immediately rushed towards Riku. As a result, Natsu rushed in front of Toby and knocked him back with an elbow strike.
"I said, I'll take them!!"
After saying this, Natsu attacked the three of them.
Lucy looked somewhat worried: "Riku, are we really not going to interfere?"
"Since he said he wants to solve it, if I interfere now, wouldn't that show distrust? Besides, I have my own things to do."
Riku looked at the short man wearing a mask.
Lucy and Happy only now noticed the man called Zalty not far away. Because of his short stature and lack of presence, the two hadn't paid attention to him, as he really didn't look threatening at all.
Lucy asked curiously: "What's wrong?!"
Riku smiled: "Well! Among everyone present, his Magic Power is the highest. Just in terms of Magic Power quantity, it's at least double that of anyone else."
"?!!"
Lucy and Happy were shocked.
Not only Lucy and Happy, but Natsu, Gray, and the opposing group also looked at the short masked man in disbelief. It was as if they knew nothing about this situation either, looking at Zalty incredulously.
To have a guy with such powerful Magic Power hidden beside them... Originally, this guy was mysterious, but hiding such powerful Magic Power meant he definitely had ulterior motives.
"Zalty, is what he said true?!"
Lyon looked at Zalty with sharp eyes.
"Wrongly accused! Lord Reitei! I admit I know a little Magic, but it's far from as exaggerated as Lord 'Thunder God' says. Maybe Lord 'Thunder God's perception is wrong."
Ultear cursed inwardly. What was with this Riku? He could actually perceive her Magic Power. This guy's perception was too sensitive.
Lucy also doubted if Riku's perception was wrong. A guy with such powerful Magic Power couldn't possibly look like this.
"Impossible!"
Happy said: "Riku's Mind Network absolutely cannot be wrong! Riku's Mind Network can accurately perceive the opponent's position and movements. Perceiving the opponent's Magic Power is even easier."
