If things completely fall out, I won't be able to protect my younger siblings either.

Mirajane's mind was filled with incredibly conflicting thoughts.

Erza: "Mirage when she was little... I've never seen her make that face before."

Gray: "Yeah, in my memory, Mirajane was always fearless when she was little, I never thought... sigh..."

Happy: "It's so depressing to watch. I still prefer Mirajane, who could argue and fight with Erza in '08."

Wendy: "Miss Mira must be in a lot of pain right now, right?"

Xia Lulu: "Of course! Sigh, they were just trying to help the villagers drive away the demon, but they ended up being despised by everyone."

Mirajane: "That's all in the past now. To be honest, I'm actually grateful for the ruthlessness of those people back then."

"otherwise……"

"I might never have met you all, and I might never have been able to come to such a gentle place again."

Mirajane looked at the image on the screen with a smile on his lips.

She spoke gently, in a soft voice.

A hand landed on his shoulder, making Mirajane turn around to look.

His smile seemed to brighten even more: "Of course, I won't run into you, my mortal enemy, either."

Erza smiled sweetly: "Ah, of course."

She looked up at the sky again: "I believe that in that world, we will still be the same."

As for the two people opposite them.

Erza was curiously looking around; she had never seen such a simple environment before.

Meanwhile, Black Natsu calmly blew on the hot water in his cup, then took a small sip.

Although there was no tea in the cup, this posture already gave him the air of a seasoned tea connoisseur.

In this somber atmosphere.

Mirajane, feeling suffocated by the oppressive atmosphere, finally spoke first.

"So... what exactly did you mean by what you just said?"

Henatsu raised his head upon hearing this.

[Then he placed the cup he was holding on the ground.]

[He spoke slowly: "It means exactly what it says. The demons have already been destroyed by you, therefore, there is no such thing as a 'punishment'."]

"The demon... has been destroyed?"

Lisanna looked at Hnatsu with some excitement upon hearing this.

"Really? But my sister..."

"Can I see your hands?"

[Henazu said.]

Upon hearing this, Mirajane instinctively hid his hands behind his back again.

However, under Honez's unwavering gaze, he still succumbed.

[Trembling... she stretched out that hand.]

"Look at this, but let me tell you first, it's disgusting."

Both Henna and Erza looked at Mirajane's outstretched arm.

Those were not hands that a human could possibly possess; the entire arm was an inhuman brown color.

Dark purple bumps, like gemstones, have appeared on the backs of my hands, wrists, and arms.

The fingertips were unusually sharp, and the entire arm was covered in uneven bumps, as if foreshadowing the danger lurking within.

Hyunaz narrowed his eyes slightly.

Then, amidst the strange looks from the crowd, Hazen suddenly reached out and grabbed Mirajane's arm.

Gray: "You got it?!"

Gajeel: "Huh? Something doesn't seem right with how this is going!"

Makarov: "Huh? Why did the art style suddenly change??"

Gildarts: "Oh, oh, oh, that world's Honatsu seems to be quite bright. I'd definitely like that kid in that world, hahaha."

Erza: "Gildarts! What are you doing, making a scene like that??"

Hades: "Seriously, what kind of development is this? It was so dull just now, how did it suddenly get going?"

Brian: "If Eileen from that world saw this, she'd probably be paralyzed with fear."

Eileen: "Brian! If you don't speak, no one will think you're mute!"

August: "Hehe, I bet someone's laughing in their sleep right now, isn't that right?"

Uru: "Someone? Who is it??"

August: "I don't know, I don't know. The time hasn't come yet. You'll know when it does."

Jelf: "August, you seem to have a lot of free time lately?"

August: "Ahem...no, no, I was just looking and offering my opinion."

Zeref: "Let's keep watching. I have a feeling that Hackintosh has some kind of purpose."

Jelf's guess was soon proven true.

Everyone present was somewhat bewildered by Black Natsu's sudden move.

Erza's eyes widened in that instant.

His gaze was fixed intently on the two tightly clasped hands.

Her teeth clenched together unconsciously.

Mirajane was also confused.

She imagined that upon seeing this arm, the two people in front of her might show disgust or even fear.

However, to everyone's surprise, this guy didn't do that at all.

Instead, she grabbed his own hand and... even closed her eyes??

Lisanna was shocked!

[They stared at HyunAz with disbelief.]

A thought gradually surfaced in my mind.

[Is this mage trying to seduce his older sister?]

[For this... they even disregarded the demon's arm?]

"Huh??? What...are you doing?"

Feeling the warmth from her hands, Mirajane finally came to her senses.

[Immediately afterwards, Mirajane's cheeks flushed as her hand was touched by a stranger of the opposite sex for the first time.]

He stammered as he spoke.

Seeing this, Erza's eyes even began to bloodshot.

What... is going on here?!

At this moment, Black Natsu, who was being watched by everyone, had his eyes tightly closed.

His brows were furrowed.

[His complexion looks a little off.]

[Through Henatsu's senses, he could clearly feel the demonic power dormant within Mirajane through that demonic arm!]

[Thump thump... thump thump... thump thump...]

At the same time! That feeling of a racing heart and boiling fighting spirit surged up in my heart once again.

[This even gradually excited Henna.]

[Buzz... Buzz...]

Just as Mirajane was about to speak up and interrupt Henna,

A strange feeling welled up inside me.

Her heart began to race, and her body started to feel hot.

Her already rosy cheeks flushed even more.

Their breathing began to quicken.

[His eyes... also gradually began to turn scarlet.]

This strange feeling caused Mirajane's face to contort slightly.
