"What's wrong with them?"
Looking at the demons in the "culture dish," Mirajane asked with a curious expression.
"I killed them, but they were able to regenerate their bodies using this device. Logically, they should be in an extremely weak state right now, so you should be able to take them in relatively easily."
Moen explained, he had suddenly realized that Mira shouldn't have too much trouble receiving these demons at this point.
"So that's how it is! No wonder I felt they weren't acting right."
Mirajane gave a cute high five, as if her doubts had finally been dispelled.
"Moen, you're right. Taking on a demon like that should be easy for me!"
Mirajane's eyes lit up as she looked at the demons, as if she were looking at a plate of steaming delicacies.
The demons of the "Nine Ghosts Gate" also sensed the danger and were extremely wary of Mirajane, whose eyes were glowing.
"Who should go first?"
Mirajane glanced around and finally chose Liang Yuetian Sera, who seemed the most harmless. This "Command Demon" did indeed seem to be the easiest to bully among the "Nine Ghost Gates".
Since she was the first to be picked, Mirajane decided to test the waters with this Cool Moon Sky Sera to see how strong it was to receive these demons.
"What are you trying to do?!"
Seeing Mirajane approaching and staring at her, Liangyuetian Sera's expression turned extremely ugly. She hadn't expected to become the first target.
"Don't be afraid, it's just borrowing your power."
Mirajane reached out her hand and smiled as she tried to make direct contact with Liangyuetian Sera, while Moen, standing on the control panel, opened Liangyuetian Sera's "culture dish" ahead of time.
"Order! Don't come near me!"
Having her body forcibly solidified and released prematurely from the "culture dish," Liang Yuetian Sera regained some of her abilities. She immediately "ordered" Mirajane not to let the guy get close to her.
"Buzz!"
When Liangyue Tian Sera's spell was applied to Mirajane, it only caused Mirajane to pause for a moment before completely dissipating. This proved that Liangyue Tian Sera, who had only recovered some of her power, was simply unable to "command" a mage of Mirajane's caliber.
"So that's what its ability is."
Mirajane's eyes lit up. She already knew about Liangyuetian Sera's abilities, and this "command spell" was quite powerful.
"Buzz!"
Mirajane approached Liangyuetian Sera, grabbed Liangyuetian Sera's shoulder, and immediately activated "Receive Magic" to begin absorbing the power that originally belonged to "Liangyuetian Sera".
"Aaaaaah!!!"
Liangyuetian Sera realized what Mirajane was doing. She screamed in pain, trying to break free, but she couldn't.
"Buzz!!!"
Magic surged, and under Mirajane's "receiving magic" influence, Liangyuetian Sera's body was gradually dissipating. She was gradually turning back into a book and being absorbed into Mirajane's body.
Even if Mirajane doesn't fully absorb Liangyuetian Sera's abilities into her body, she can still master them, but the abilities she gains in that way are far less powerful than those gained from fully absorbing them.
Now that the conditions allow, Mirajane naturally chooses to accept it completely.
"Buzz!!!"
Liangyuetian Sera's body transformed into the "Book of Demons," which then quickly merged into Mirajane's body, becoming one of the many demons received by Mirajane. Another demon from the "Book of Zeref" vanished from the world, with no possibility of resurrection.
In her weakened state, Liangyuetian Sera caused no trouble and was directly stripped of her will by Mirajane, becoming nothing more than a book in Mirajane's "transformation slot".
"No! We can't just sit here and wait to die!"
Seeing what was happening before their eyes, the other members of the "Nine Ghosts Gate" went crazy.
As time passed, their strength was slowly recovering in the "culture dish". At this point, they couldn't care about anything else. They just wanted to escape first. They didn't care about damaged memories or foundations. They just wanted to save their lives first!
"boom!!!"
Xing Litian Kuanghua, the leader of the Nine Ghost Gates, directly shattered the "petri dish".
Although this "petition dish" is sturdy, it is not difficult for the "Nine Ghosts Gate" to break it once they recover some of their power. Xing Litian Kuanghua was the first to recover to the point where he could break the "petition dish".
"Command: Silence!"
Just as Xinglitian Kuanghua was about to rush towards the exit, Mirajane had already changed her form. She put on the "Liangyuetian Sera" outfit and grew horns on her head just like "Liangyuetian Sera".
Mirajane's "command spell" was clearly much stronger than the one used by "Liangyuetian·Sera" just now, and it was enough to control the weakened Xinglitian·Kuanghua.
"Buzz!"
Xinglitian Kuanghua stopped in her tracks, her body motionless. No matter how much she urged her, she did not move an inch.
"This is really useful!"
Mirajane chuckled and remarked that this "command spell" might not be very effective against powerful individuals, such as Moen, who would definitely not be affected by it. However, against those significantly weaker than herself, this "command spell" was extremely powerful.
"A divine technique for crushing noobs."
Moen commented that this "command spell" is a devastating blow to those who are not strong, and as Mirajane's strength increases, the scope of those who are "not strong" will become larger and larger.
"Buzz!!!"
Mirajane seized "Star Lord of Heaven - Mad Glory" and immediately used the same trick to begin absorbing the power belonging to "Star Lord of Heaven - Mad Glory".
"Enhancement spells, weapon spells."
"Star Lord Heaven - Mad Flower" possesses two spells: an "Enhancement Spell" that can "strengthen oneself," "enhance the enemy's pain," and "deprive the senses," and a "Weapon Spell" that can turn the hands into various weapons. This spell is more melee-oriented and is quite different from "Cool Moon Heaven - Sera," which focuses on control.
"Starry Sky - Mad Flower" was quickly transformed back into the "Book of Demons", and then absorbed into Mirajane's body. Another demon from the "Book of Zeref" was completely destroyed from the world.
Mirajane switched forms, this time to the "Star Lord of Heaven - Mad Flower" form. This "Star Lord of Heaven - Mad Flower" form looks a bit like some kind of bird demon, and when it transforms into a demon, it also has some feather features.
"This demon enhancement can actually turn people into demons!"
After figuring out her new ability, Mirajane exclaimed in surprise that this "enhancement ability" was truly a bit abnormal, as it could directly transform ordinary people into demons and cause "demon factors" to be generated in the bodies of enemies.
The "demon factor" within demons is the source of their power and the reason they are demons. This is a very insidious trick, directly turning enemies into demons as well.
"Unfortunately, we can't use it."
Moen was astonished upon hearing about this ability, but they certainly wouldn't create demons; they wanted to destroy them.
"boom!!!"
Before Mirajane could get used to her abilities, the other "petition dishes" exploded one after another. The "Nine Ghosts" were going all out, fighting with everything they had to fight for their last chance of survival.
"boom!"
The lush green Franmars rammed into the gate, but he was bounced back as Moen sealed the gate with a Crystal Wall.
"Damn it! It's this again!"
"Sharkman" Trafalgar gritted his teeth and slammed into the wall beside him. If the door was blocked, he would just smash through the wall!
"boom!"
This time, there was no Crystal Wall to stop him, but Trafalgar still couldn't break through the wall. The wall of the "Hell Core" was too solid. Trafalgar, who hadn't recovered much of his strength, couldn't break through it at all. This made the "Shark Demon's" face full of despair. Could this be considered being betrayed by his own people?
In reality, I've been betrayed quite a few times by my own people. Some arrangements that seemed insignificant at first turned out to be absurd in life-or-death situations, like having Rami in charge of the reconstruction and regeneration...
"Command: Silence!"
Before the "Nine Ghosts Gate" could act again, Mirajane had already issued another order. Being the first to receive "Cool Moon Sky Sera's" ability was indeed very useful, saving a lot of trouble.
"Now they're all behaving themselves. Let's do it one at a time."
Moen watched this scene with a smile, while Mirajane began to slowly "receive" them one by one. The demons of the "Nine Ghost Gates" were helpless against this and could only stand there waiting to be received by Mirajane.
Moen left the "Core of Hell" and came outside. At this time, Gray and Silver Fullbuster were catching up. Actually, the atmosphere was a bit awkward. It is difficult for fathers and sons to open up to each other, let alone a couple who have been separated for so long.
However, Gray and Silver Fullbuster quickly reached a consensus on one thing: their hatred for demons. They believed that more demons had to be eliminated because they had destroyed everything that had happened to them, including their happy and ordinary lives.
If Silver Fullbuster had the choice, he wouldn't want any of this damn power. He'd rather stay with his son and wife and live the happy, ordinary life he used to have.
"Gray, I will teach you the Ice Demon Slayer Technique. From now on, the heavy responsibility of eliminating demons will fall on your shoulders."
Seeing Gray's complex expression, Silver Fullbuster immediately began to make his final arrangements. For him, "Black Monk" Keith had to be eliminated, which meant he was doomed to die. He no longer had time to make amends or spend time with Gray. The only thing he could do was to pass on his power to Gray.
As for whether Gray can learn it, Silver Fullbuster is not worried. Gray can use "Ice Shape Magic" so well, so learning "Ice Demon Slayer Magic" will definitely not be difficult for him.
"Father...Father...what exactly is your condition right now?"
Gray wasn't stupid; he naturally understood the meaning behind Silver Fullpasta's words, and he looked at his father with great concern.
"There's no need for me to lie to you. I was resurrected by a demon. If he dies, I will die too. You know that I can't spare that demon just to save my own life."
Silver Fullpaster directly revealed the truth, which silenced Gray.
Gray understood that if things were really as his father said, he knew without even thinking what choice his father would make.
Moreover, deep down, Gray could understand his father's choice; if it were him, he certainly wouldn't have chosen to live such a wretched life.
"Moen...is there nothing he can do?"
In the past, Gray might have given up immediately, but isn't Moen here? Then there's still hope!
"Um, President Moen? I haven't asked, but he probably can't do anything about this, right?"
Silver Fullpasta was taken aback. He hadn't really thought about asking Moen for help, mainly because he didn't think Moen could be of any help with this kind of thing.
"No, maybe Moen has a way."
Gray shook his head. No matter what, he had to ask first.
"It seems like the two of you had a good talk."
When Moen emerged from the "Core of Hell," he saw the father and son discussing something with serious expressions.
Upon seeing Moen emerge, Gray immediately approached him, his face filled with hope, and asked, "Brother Moen... is there any way to help my father with his condition?"
Silver Fullpasta opened his mouth as if to speak but then stopped. He didn't want to trouble Moen with his own affairs. After all, Moen was the guild master and had already helped them a lot. The father and son couldn't keep taking things without being grateful.
"Let me think about it, maybe it will work."
Facing the hopeful look on Gray's face, Moen carefully spoke, though he wasn't entirely confident, as this matter was indeed beyond his control. It mainly depended on whether Mira could replace "Black Monk" Keith as the new master of Silver Fullpasta.
"It's good that there's hope!"
Hearing Moen's explanation, Gray perked up immediately. There was hope, even if it was slim, it was better than that dead end.
""
Looking at the exhilarated Gray, Silver Fullbuster's expression was gentle and heartbroken. Even without him, his Gray had grown into an excellent and responsible man. Fairy Tail was a good guild, and Gray had met a group of good people.
Silver Fullbuster knew that after that incident, Gray came to Fairy Tail. He grew up in Fairy Tail, and his personality was formed under the influence of the entire guild. Fortunately, it was Fairy Tail.
"Whether that matter can be accomplished or not is irrelevant. Let's hurry up and learn the Ice Demon Slayer Technique first."
After a moment of reflection, Silver Fullpasta became serious again and grabbed his son, ready to begin his magic lesson.
Although there was a sliver of hope for survival, Silver Fullpasta couldn't rely solely on that hope. He needed to get the important things done first, so that even if he died in the end, he would have no regrets.
"Yes, Father!"
Gray gritted his teeth and agreed. If this was the last time he and his father would spend together, he didn't want to disappoint his father. He had to learn all of the "Ice Demon Slayer Technique" as soon as possible.
