27: Death? What a big mouth!
"Hey, Erza, this horn... isn't it the material you brought back for me this time?"
Kira walked up to the monster horn that Erza brought back, looked at it carefully, touched it, and knocked it. Based on his years of experience in identifying and forging magic props, he judged that this horn... is simply for show.
It is quite large in size, but cannot be made into magic potions, nor can it be used as a forging material.
Kira looked at Erza with an expression that said, "I asked you to bring the materials back intact, and you use this to fool me?"
"Ah... No, I didn't find anything that could be used as material this time. This horn was a trophy from my monster hunt. The locals used it as a display, but I thought it was beautiful, so I brought it here as a souvenir."
After explaining, Erza asked everyone calmly, "Will it be troublesome?"
"No, no, no... it won't be a problem at all!"
"A horn for killing monsters... It's so big..."
“So amazing…”
The extras around were all amazed.
Haha, less...the more you see, the more surprised you become.
But is this horn pretty? As expected, Erza's aesthetic taste is very strange.
In other words, the girls in Fairy Tail are actually quite weird. For example, Lucy has some indescribable tendencies; Erza doesn't know the priorities in her emotions; Juvia is blindly obsessed with Gray; and Levy may have Stockholm syndrome...
But Kira knew that the reason for this phenomenon was not them, but the original author of the comics! After all, everyone knows that Majima is just an artist, so how can he understand Fairy Tail?
“In fact, I heard some news during this trip that made me a little concerned. I should have discussed it with the president before making a decision, but I didn’t expect that the president was not here.
But in my opinion, the sooner this matter can be resolved, the better, and Kira happens to be here... So, Kira, Natsu, Gray, I may need your help this time, so please come with me."
Erza's words surprised everyone present. Erza had always acted alone and rarely participated in team missions. After all, she was strong enough.
"What happened?"
"This is the first time I've seen Erza invite someone..."
"What's wrong?"
But Erza did not explain to everyone, she just said to herself: "We will leave tomorrow, you go back and prepare, I will explain the details on the way."
Her attitude was very firm and she would not tolerate rejection.
"Erza... Killer... Natsu... Gray... We haven't seen a lineup like this before..."
"This is probably the strongest team in Fairy Tail, right?"
The people in the guild began to talk about what kind of enemy would make Erza form such a mission team.
"No... Impossible..." Gray was embarrassed and pointed at Natsu, "It's already uncomfortable to be with this guy, and now I have to be with Erza..."
"Such a combination is impossible!!! And I didn't say I was going!" Natsu rushed to Lucy and put his clothes and scarf on Lucy after a while. "From now on, you are Natsu."
Lucy looked helpless: "How is that possible?"
…
At the same time, in a dark forest, the Iron Forest, a dark magic guild under the command of the Six Demon Generals.
"Which guild is the armored woman from?"
"have no idea."
"What a beautiful woman... Damn!! It would have been nice if I had talked to her just now."
"You... no need to, you can't do that."
"What do you mean??"
The men that Erza met in the tavern in Guilian Castle chatted with her sporadically. Obviously, when Erza noticed them, they also noticed Erza.
"Is Kageyama not back yet?" A man carrying a huge sickle and with bangs that covered half of his face asked the three people.
"When it's not that easy to remove the seal, there's nothing I can do."
"We can't delay any longer... Now is a good time! The old men are having their regular meeting!"
…
Fairy Tail Guild, bar counter.
Unlike Natsu and Gray who refused directly, Kira sat down, ordered a glass of juice, and then asked Erza directly: "I just came back from a mission and don't want to go out now. Can you tell me what happened in detail first?"
"Okay." Erza nodded. Obviously, she knew that Kira could not be coerced by force like Natsu and Gray, so she could only tell him what she saw in the tavern.
Ten minutes later, after listening to what Erza said, Gray asked, "In short, it's just a bunch of guys trying to unseal some kind of magic, right? But this might just be their mission, so there's nothing wrong with that."
Erza continued, "I didn't take it seriously at first, until I remembered Eligaul's name."
Mira, who was well-informed about the news in the magic world, said, "Eligor... this name seems familiar."
"He doesn't sound like a powerful person. Do you have any impression of such a person?" Kira disagreed. "So, who is he?"
"The trump card of the magic guild Iron Forest - Eligore, the god of death."
Kira was a little disdainful: "Oh? The God of Death? What a big mouth!"
"That's because he only chose assassination missions to perform, so he was given the title. The Council originally banned assassination missions, but Iron Forest chose money. In the end, Iron Forest was exiled by the Magic Association six years ago."
After hearing what Erza said, Kira couldn't help but hold his forehead: "Well... Although I want to say that there is nothing wrong with choosing money, it is indeed different when it comes to human lives. If you like fighting, wouldn't it be better to join a mercenary guild? I can't stand it. What do these people think of magic..."
"Wait a minute..." Lucy asked, "Is it a violation of the Magic Association's rules to carry out an assassination mission, and in the end I was just exiled with no other punishment?"
Erza sat down next to Kira, and their red hair immediately became a beautiful scenery at the bar.
"Of course there was. At that time, the leader of the Iron Forest was arrested, and the guild was ordered to disband. However, most of the guilds, known as the Dark Guilds, simply ignored the disbandment order and continued their activities.
The Iron Forest is the same, still gathering together and doing unknown actions. I heard that they are now a subordinate guild of the Six Demon Generals. "
After hearing Erza's answer, Gray understood a little: "No wonder you asked us for help. If it was just those guys present, Erza could handle it alone, but if the opponent is the entire guild..."
At this time, Kira has also remembered who the Iron Forest is. In the original work, Erza, Gray and others appeared, and the enemies in the chapter of the strongest team were established. The boss Eligore is a wizard who uses wind magic, and the final boss is the devil Larabai.
Do I need to take action against these small minions in the early stage?
"Haha... You think too highly of them, Gray!" Kira said softly, "Even if it's the entire Iron Forest Guild, Erza can handle it alone."
