Compared to the two fairies, Natsu is truly slaying a dragon!

[Lisanna then pulled her sister to climb out the back window.]

But, at this very moment!

[Knock knock knock...]

A slow knock was heard on the tightly closed door.

The three siblings' gazes instantly locked onto the entrance from which the commotion had originated.

The little boy, Elfman, trembled even more violently.

"Are they here...?"

Mirajane's brows furrowed.

[She clenched her teeth tightly.]

Her right hand, and her left hand, which had transformed into a demonic arm, shielded her younger siblings behind her.

"You all stay here and relax, I'm going out!"

"They're after me. If I go there, you'll be safe."

Mirajane said in a deep voice.

The knocking at the door grew more urgent.

This caused beads of sweat to pour rapidly from Mirajane's forehead.

"Are you kidding me! How could I let Mira go out and face this alone?"

[Lisanna, the white-haired girl, was the first to disagree.]

Even Elfman, who had been trembling the whole time, nodded heavily.

"There are mages outside, if my sister goes out alone... she'll die..."

"Stop talking! Stay here and I'm going out to see what they're up to."

Mirajane's decisive blow pushed her younger siblings to the back.

He walked alone towards the main gate.

He took a deep breath and stared at the rattling door.

Mirajane slowly reached out her trembling hand and grasped the doorknob.

Ignoring Lisanna's shouts behind her, she pushed open the door and darted out...

Then he immediately slammed the door shut and leaned against it.

[After ensuring that the younger siblings in the room would not be harmed.]

Mirajane managed to calm her heart, which was pounding in her chest.

His gaze began to scan the two figures in front of him, who were roughly the same size as him.

"This...is this what a mage is?"

Mirajane muttered to herself.

These two people don't seem to have any particularly strong abilities.

At that moment, Erza, who was knocking on the door, also paused in surprise.

Mirajane's appearance was indeed stunning; even a beauty like Erza couldn't help but admire her looks.

Or perhaps, Erza never imagined that the person so despised by the villagers would be such a beautiful young girl?

Unlike Erza, there is Honez.

At that moment, he was also staring intently at Mirajane.

[Or rather, the moment Mirajane emerged, their gazes were already fixed on Mirajane's other arm, hidden within her cloak.]

Although concealed by the cloak, Hazen seemed to sense something, his gaze fixed intently on that spot.

Perhaps it was because Hyunaz's gaze was simply too sharp.

Mirajane lowered her hand from under her cloak and hid it behind her back.

[He forced himself to remain calm and angrily rebuked her.]

"What...what is your purpose?!"

Erza's gaze met Mirajane's.

Unexpectedly, Mirajane immediately looked away, clearly trying to hide her panic.

Erza didn't seem to mind and said.

"As you can see, we are mages."

"As expected... she's a mage..."

Mirajane's face instantly darkened, and his previous aggressive demeanor vanished.

Their figures seemed to have shrunk considerably all of a sudden.

[It's like... a pitiful, down-on-her-luck young girl.]

"You all saw it, didn't you? That's right, the demon is inside me!"

"You...come and punish me."

Mirajane's voice trembled, but she didn't take a single step back. 5.9

"However, all of this has nothing to do with Lisanna and Elfman!"

"Don't involve those two! Otherwise... I'll fight you to the death!!!"

Mirajane gritted her teeth, especially when she spoke of her younger siblings.

Her trembling voice seemed to have vanished completely.

[His tone also became incredibly fierce!]

[It's like a cat that's been blown up.]

[His unwavering gaze was fixed intently on the two people before him.]

Erza was somewhat bewildered by the sudden roar.

[She looked at HyunAz and blinked.]

"You seem to have misunderstood."

Just then, Henna finally spoke.

His gaze shifted from Mirajane's cloak, his arms still wrapped around his shoulders.

He said, "Demons don't need to be defeated, but unfortunately, you must leave this place."

"Huh? What's going on?"

Erza looked at Black Natsu with curiosity.

"Let's go inside and discuss the specifics."

[Henazu spoke while glancing at Mirajane.]

"So, you're not just planning to stand here and talk, are you?"

"Aren't you going to invite us in for a seat?"

Chapter 117 Getting the hang of it! Mirajane's been completely ruined?

[Inside the dilapidated room.]

The group was sitting around the fire.

It was a stove made of simple bricks.

Firewood burned in the stove, and a kettle hung above it, its contents boiling.

[It makes a gurgling sound.]

The only sound in the room was the bubbling of water.

Lisanna sat by the fireplace, holding her sister, her eyes warily fixed on Black Natsu and Erza, who were sitting cross-legged before her.

Elfman was the same, moving closer to Mirajane, clearly somewhat frightened.

As for Mirajane, his heart was also far from calm at this moment.

She wondered if agreeing to let the two mages in was a mistake.

[In case...they have any ill intentions,]

[Wouldn't I be sending my younger siblings into the lion's den?]

But then again, these two are both mages.

They all possess extraordinary abilities far exceeding those of ordinary people.

In this one-off situation, I am absolutely no match for them.
