CHAPTER XXXI

"There's another one, I hope this one is stronger. "Dark Night, the most mysterious of the Six Demon Generals, has been ordered by the leader Brian to hunt the members of the Light Guild in the forest. Just finished down the cyan Pegasus' Ren Akatsuki and Ivan Tsurum, and discovered a light mage again.

"What's the matter, are you kneeling and begging for mercy?" "It doesn't matter, if you don't resist, you can save some trouble. As he spoke, he thought that the man in blue in front of him had activated his magic and twisted the man's clothes, preparing to tear them to shreds.

"Goodbye, nobody!" said Dark Night with a smile, as if crushing an ant to death.

"What!?" looked at the man in blue who suddenly disappeared and called out in surprise.

"Woo ......" was grabbed by the face and pressed to the ground, and the huge force made the dark night unable to resist and was pressed into the ground. All that could be seen through the gap between his fingers was the man's scarlet eyes.

"Get out of here!" Feeling that the big hand on his head was gathering magic power, although his own magic could distort and even bounce back the magic that was attacking him, but at such a close distance and it was his own head, no matter what kind of magic he didn't dare to take this risk, so he activated the magic to twist the other party's clothes, pulling the person's body to keep him away from him.

"Whew...... Who are you?" Looking at the man in front of him in the dark night, the magic that was constantly rising from him, and the sixth sense in his mind constantly reminded me of the sense of crisis of running away, so that I also understood that this man was completely different from the harmless feeling he had just knelt there.

"Name...... Name...... My name...... Woo...... "The man looked up to the sky and howled in pain as if he had thought of something painful.

β€œmy…… name…… is…… sparda!!" Along with the man's roar came a surging burst of magic.

"Whew...... ...... Lucy, who was lying by the river, gasped for breath, while An Jie'er, the Six Demon General, was lying motionless next to her, as if she was dead.

"It's amazing, Lucy, both your strength and your heartfelt love for the Star Spirit are very powerful. Hibiki looked at Lucy and said softly.

"Dew...... Void (West), save ...... Rescue ...... I. Natsu, who was on the raft, said weakly.

"Really, it's a mess...... Got you. Lucy struggled to swim to Natsu's side and grabbed him, but it was too late, and the rushing river washed them down the waterfall.

"Gerald!"

"Elusa!"

"Gerald, why are you here!"

"Elu...... Sha, Ai ...... Lusha. Gerald kept muttering the name.

"I can't remember anything but the name. As Elusa wondered, Gerald's mouth spat out shocking words, "Can you tell me? Who am I? Do you know who I am?"

"Who the hell is Elusa, I can't remember anything!" Gerald looked at his former best friend in front of him with a pained expression, and although he said the name of the other person, he couldn't remember her at all.

"I'm Elusa!" said Elusa, looking at Gerald earnestly, "Your name is Gerald, and you're my former companion. ”

"But you have confused your mind, you have desecrated the dead, you have hurt your companions, and you have destroyed the Council. ”

"If you forget all this, then I will plunge my sword into your chest and carve it into your heart. Elusa shouted at Gerald, "Come here, come to me!"

"How...... How could I do such a thing, how should I be? Gerald said with tears of remorse and bitter confusion.

Just then, a tall tower rose from a pillar of light behind Gerald.

"No wonder I can't hear you, you have amnesia. The cobra, who had been hiding on the side, came out and said to Gerald, "Then what are you here for?" ”

"When I was asleep before, I vaguely heard that you were going to use the magic of Nirvana. This magic is a very dangerous magic and cannot be given to anyone else, and I vaguely remember the location of this magic seal, so in order to destroy it completely, I broke its seal. ”

"What ......!"

"I've already placed the Self-Discipline Destruction Magic Array, and Nirvana will soon self-destruct. Gerald said with a smile.

"Damn, what have you done with this bastard!!" Cobra ran to the magic circle and looked at the magic array, "Damn, such a high-precision magic array, Nirvana will be destroyed if you go on like this." ”

"Gerald, you give me an honest explanation of the law of dismissal!!"

"Ahem!" Suddenly Gerald coughed up a mouthful of blood and looked at Elusa and said with a smile, "Elusa, this name has a gentle feeling. ”

"I'm sorry, Elusa, I can't get to you anymore. Gerald fell to the ground, and the Self-Discipline Destruction Magic Circle also appeared in him.

"Even his own body has installed a self-discipline destruction magic array. The cobra said in shock and anger, "Are you going to take the law of lifting to hell?!"

"It's a pity that I didn't get to see him in the end. Do you know him, Elusa? Gerald lay there and said to Elusa beside him.

"Who?" asked Elusa, putting her arm around a weakened Gerald.

"That name gives me a different feeling than you, you give me a gentle and cheerful, like a spring breeze, which makes people feel warm. ”

"And what he gives me is strong, serious, and powerful, as if nothing can bother him, just like an older brother, who can give people the feeling of home sheltered from the wind and rain. ”

"Well, yes, he's our older brother, and he stopped you when you became bad, and he never gave up on you. "Although there was a moment in Elusa's heart that she wanted to complain about Gerald, you were wrong, that man was about to become a complete uncle. But at this time, the words complained about in this atmosphere were a little too damaging to the atmosphere, so I picked up some nice words and gave them to Gerald.

"yes, that's great. Gerald smiled and said, "Free yourself from Gerald's bondage, your resentment...... And sadness...... Just let me take it!"

"You're free!"

"You get up for me! I won't let you die! Do you want to let go of your past mistakes like this, and run away so easily? You want me to live well, and give me serious atone!!" Elusa said to Gerald, crying.

"What's going on, self-discipline destroys the magic array!" the person who spoiled the atmosphere appeared.

"Who are you?" said Virgil, looking at the dark shadow that appeared in front of him.

At this time, Virgil's situation was a little not good, in order to prevent his personality from changing after being affected by Nirvana, Virgil had to mobilize the magic of his whole body to fight against the magic of Nirvana, but after Nirvana, his spirit has changed, as if another personality has been produced, another self, affecting the mobilization of his own magic power in the body, and he has to sink all his spirit into the depths of the spirit to find out what is wrong with himself.

"Who are you?Nirvana?" asked Virgil cautiously as he looked at the familiar figure that appeared in the depths of his soul, and looked exactly like himself.

"How can I be Nirvana, am I not you?" the man said, looking at Virgil, "I am 'Virgil.'" ”

"Are you the other side of me?"

"No, no, no, no, no, I'm one side to you. "Virgil said, "It's not accurate to say that, I'm the part of your demons, I'm ...... Sparta!"

"Sparta?!, my demonic powers?"

"yes, have you forgotten? ”

'I see the mighty demon in you! the blood of the demon that you have been suppressing in your body. Someday, that bloodthirsty instinct in you will take over and cause harm to those around you. In that case, will anyone think you're a human being?

"......" Virgil was silent, he remembered what he had said to him before he died.

"Do you know why you can't get stronger?"

Virgil looked at himself in shock and was speechless in surprise, because this secret that only he knew was easily revealed by the other party, but after a little thought, he understood that the other party was also 'himself'.

"What's going on?"

"Can you transform into a demon?and learn the dragon-slaying magic of this world?But how does this compare to the power of the Spartan bloodline that can defeat the Lord of the Demon Realm?"

"You... One... Straight... At... Resist... Rejection, you are afraid of your demonic powers, you are rejecting your instincts. So your strength hasn't been boosted for a long time. ”

"You're scared!"
