Fairy Tail: I was transported to the wrong world and became a pirate
Chapter 6: Mira and her two siblings face a crisis
Looking down, Hughes saw Lisanna and Elfman still acting cautiously not far away. Then his gaze swept over the girl in the corner, who was completely wrapped in a large cloak.
Mira and her two siblings are now like a few fearful hedgehogs. They need to leave the village and bask in the warm sunshine of the outside world for their quills to soften.
Hughes had not experienced their grief, nor could he accept standing on a pedestal as a hypocrite, presumptuously trying to enlighten them.
He shook his head with pity and turned to leave. His immediate priority was to quickly return to the village, find two lucky guys, beat them up, and complete the system's mission; only then would he set off to find the "King of Mount Colbo."
Inside the room, Lisanna and Elfman stared at each other, puzzled, unable to utter a word for a long time.
"Bang!"
The sound of a door slamming shut came from behind him, and Hughes, who had already walked some distance away, couldn't help but twitch at the corner of his mouth.
Damn it, why do I feel like I have absolutely no class as a time traveler?
Forget it, I'll go visit the village chief's seventy or eighty-year-old father instead.
Oh, right, he seems to have a son too. Perfect, the whole family has to be together!
......
In the quiet of the night, looking at the virtual page in front of him, where only one task remained in the "Tasks to be Completed" section, Hughes felt a sense of relief.
The village was a nightmare for Mira and her siblings, but it was a blessing for him, not only granting him the power of the Flame-Flame Fruit but also enhancing his physical abilities.
Even after running around for most of the night, my legs don't feel sore at all.
"So, can anyone tell me what to do if I get lost!" Hughes looked at the dilapidated house that had appeared for the third time, his eyes full of confusion.
He's not Liu Suolong, how could getting lost happen to him?
"Brother, why does that weird uncle keep loitering around our house?" The boys and girls inside whispered to each other by the window, looking wary.
Hughes had already circled their house three times, and Elfman and Lisanna found it hard not to suspect that the person outside had ill intentions.
The fact that Hughes was wearing that tattered blue and white striped hospital gown made the two of them even more frightened!
"Elfman, what if that weird uncle breaks in?"
Elfman gripped the wooden stick tightly, his eyes grave. "Lisanna, whatever you do, don't open the door again. If he comes in, grab Mira and run! Don't worry about me!"
"Elfmango..."
Hughes, standing outside, was speechless. The system's reward of "improved physical fitness" not only greatly increased his strength, but also comprehensively improved his eyesight and hearing.
He heard everything. They said they were all around the same age, yet they still called him "uncle," right? He remembered that!
Everyone heard that, right? It was those siblings who provoked the mentally ill person first!
A tragic past and a young age are no excuses for a mentally ill person like him!
......
Meanwhile, at the village chief's house, the atmosphere was quite serious.
Under the oil lamp, the shadows of several burly men were cast. They sat upright, their brows furrowed on their swollen faces.
Village Chief Ed sat at the head of the table, his usual gentle and honest face completely gone. He tapped the table. "Everyone saw what happened today. Mages are terrifying like that. No one said anything they shouldn't have!"
He paused briefly, his swollen, slit-like eyes scanning each person present; without exception, their cheeks were bruised and swollen, clearly all of them having been beaten by Hughes.
"Brother Ed, don't worry! None of us are those kinds of people. But do you think that mage who suddenly appeared today might have discovered something in the church?"
Village Chief Ed glared at the person who spoke up: "Now you know fear? Why didn't you take less when it was time to distribute the money?"
Even if he discovers something, can we just not do it?
You're completely covered in black, and you still dream of clearing your name? What makes you think you can do that, you're just an ordinary person?
Listen, when that mage was beating up my dad and my son, I hid behind and observed. He didn't have a guild crest on him, so he probably wasn't from a major guild or the Magic Council.
I just received news that the mage has left the village; but there are still mages in the village... I don't want to see any more mages ruin our important plans!
Therefore, the Strauss family can no longer stay in the village. Tomorrow, continue to incite those ignorant villagers to drive them out.
After tomorrow, I want to see no mages left in the village, do you hear me!
"Get this over with, all of you. Once we've finished these few transactions, we're off."
"Okay, Brother Ed, we'll gather the villagers tomorrow morning and drive the three Strauss kids away. By the way, can't we just kill them? Why make such a fuss!"
Ed looked at him like he was an idiot. Everyone had seen with their own eyes how Mira absorbed the demon.
To this day, he only dares to incite those foolish and ignorant villagers to drive them away, rather than anger her and harm her siblings in the slightest.
Even when driving Mira away, fearing he might get too close to Mira and the other two, he would always hide in the crowd and shield the villagers in front of him.
Is this kid brainless or just brave?
Village Chief Ed stood up and patted him on the shoulder: "If you can do that, I'll give you my position as the big brother!"
As the oil lamp went out, the village chief's house returned to its dilapidated and cramped state.
......
The next day, Hughes, who was lying in the tree, rolled over to avoid the sunlight that was about to shine on him.
He pondered for a long time last night but couldn't come up with a suitable excuse to beat up the brother and sister. Instead, he felt sleepy and simply found a tree nearby to take a nap.
At this moment, a barrage of vulgar insults erupted from under the tree. Hughes, who had been sleeping soundly with his eyes closed, frowned, moved his arm slightly, first scratching his itchy buttocks, and then opened his eyes unhappily.
"Damn it, even though I know the three siblings are ostracized by the villagers, there's no need to hurl such vulgar insults!"
......
"Demon, why won't you die? Are you only satisfied when you've killed everyone in the village?"
"Demon, get out of our village!"
"Your parents are dead, what are you still doing here!"
......
Hughes looked down at the unruly people under the tree, who were clutching farm tools, pitchforks, and spears.
Their language was extremely vulgar, and some people even picked up fist-sized stones from the ground and threw them directly at them.
"Thump!"
The stone shattered the already cracked window and crashed into the room, finally making Hughes realize why the house where Mira and the other two lived was in such a dilapidated state!
"Mira isn't a demon! She's a hero who vanquished demons for the village!"
With a wronged look in her eyes and wearing a slightly worn dress, Lisanna shouted loudly through the window.
"Mira has become a demon, and you will become a demon too. All three of you siblings will become demons!"
"You must have killed all those people who disappeared from the village."
"Get out of our village! You scoundrel!"
The increasingly noisy sounds outside left the girl unsure how to respond...
Mira went to the church to eliminate the demon for the safety of the village... so why is everyone saying she's a scourge now...?
Suddenly, an iron fork shot out from the crowd, its tip gleaming coldly, pointing directly at Lisanna behind the window.
"Sigh!" Hughes sighed helplessly from the tree, flames flickering in his hands.
"Bear!" Solid flames rained down from the sky, bombarding the crowd. Sparks exploded, carrying several people flying through the air.
The cries of agony echoed everywhere...
Hughes landed in front of the dilapidated house, his hand firmly gripping the iron fork, his eyes glancing sideways ahead, and he roared.
"roll!"
The clamor suddenly fell silent!
Seeing the villagers scattering and fleeing with their reddened bodies, Hughes, his face grim, kicked open the door and threw the iron fork in his hand with a clang in front of the autistic girl hiding in the corner.
"I'm not good at lecturing, but no matter how much of a devil you are, nothing is more important than your family!"
Don't wait until something happens to Lisanna and Elfman before making a decision.
These people really want to kill you. Leave this village and go see the outside world.
The girl, hiding under the large cloak, slightly raised her head, two strands of hair falling down, her blue eyes filled with helplessness and grievance.
