Chapter 10: Leaving the Tower of Paradise
Looking at this building that is very famous in the plot, and I was involved in the construction, I felt a little incredible.
"Brother, what are you looking at?" Elusa asked.
"It's fine. Just thinking about this thing we built, I just got a bad feeling from this building. Virgil replied. "Let's go, go back to work, or the dead dogs will bark again." ”
"Hmm. Brother, do your injuries still hurt? Last time, you carried the black pot for me, causing you to be beaten, and the beating was so serious. Is it really okay?" asked Elusa with concern. But Virgil didn't answer, and left the place of work and walked straight to the place of work. Seeing that she didn't get an answer, Elusa had to follow.

It's been three months since he arrived on this island, and his magic is imprisoned, but those priests obviously regard Virgil as an ordinary magician, and seeing that Virgil is so young, they don't think he can do much magic, so they don't pay much attention to him. But this is obviously wrong, Virgil is a magician, but in addition to magic, he is also a swordsman who can use sword qi, so after Virgil completes his tasks every day, he will enter the state of concentration, feel nature, and enhance his swordsmanship cultivation, hoping to achieve, no sword in his hand, a sword in his heart, with qi to resist the sword, and send out sword qi with his bare hands to cut off the forbidden demon handcuffs. Therefore, this time the magic power was banned, which can be regarded as an alternative opportunity, so that he can devote himself to improving his swordsmanship cultivation.
With Virgil's body, he won't have a hard time here, but this guy has to be distracted to take care of Elusa, and later he has to take care of Elusa's friends, so he will inevitably make mistakes, and he will also help Elusa carry the black pot. So it is inevitable to be beaten. But fortunately, it was only a few or dozens of whips from those guards, and Virgil's body could completely carry it, and the recovery was very fast. However, this also made a deep impression on Elusa and her friends, and became their eldest brother.

On this day, Virgil had just returned to Cave 7 when he saw Elusa and the others gathered together to discuss something. However, Virgil didn't care and was ready to continue his cultivation. But Xiu stopped him, "Brother, come here." Xiu shouted in a mysterious whisper. Virgil had no choice but to get up and see what they were going to do.
"Brother, we're going to run away!" Xiu said mysteriously. "Escape, are you ready, do you know when to move, what are the precautions of the guards, do you have a boat to go to sea?" asked Virgil. "Of course, we're all ready!" Xiu said confidently. Virgil mentally questioned the plans of the imps, because in the original book, they were caught on the way to escape, and caused Elusa to go to the top tank, and as a result, one eye was broken. However, for Elusa's sake, even though he knew he couldn't do it, Virgil still had to accompany them.

"You stinky little ghosts, you dare to run away. The guard shouted to the people who were surrounded. These people are the same people as Virgil and his party, who think they are foolproof.
"Say it, which of you is the mastermind, as long as you come out and admit it, I will let the others go. A priest said.
"It's me. I was the one who egged them on. Virgil stepped up and said.
"Good. Come, he will escort me down, and I will teach him a lesson in a moment. Virgil was then taken down by several guards. "These little ghosts, twenty lashes per person, let them have a long memory. With that, he let his men start the execution. After punishing Elusa and the others, he asked his men to bring back a few imps, and he walked towards the torture chamber.

"Brother Virgil, wake up, wake up!" Gerald looked at the unhuman boy in front of him, who was about to be tortured, and he almost didn't recognize it as his big brother Virgil. After several of them were put back, it had been a day, but Virgil still hadn't returned, so he decided to go and get out of him, and find a way to open Virgil's handcuffs. (The handcuffs were not opened before because only the priest had the key to open the handcuffs, and the tools were controlled, so in order to escape without alerting the guards, the handcuffs were not opened for Virgil) put Virgil down and prepared to take him out.
"Boom~~" Gerald was knocked to the ground.
"You killed three of them!" said one of the priests, looking at Gerald. "Since you have come to save him, then you will be tortured in his place!" said Gerald, tying him to the torture rack. A few men were called to carry Virgil back.

"Ahh
By the time he was dragged back by the guards, Virgil was awake, but had not yet opened his eyes. Now that I see these little ghosts caring so much, it's hard to pretend to faint. "I'm fine! I'm going to worry about you" smiled more than crying because of the wound. Because he knew that Virgil was a magician, he was extremely serious about him.
Looking at Virgil, who was extremely injured, Elusa and the others were very sad, and Xiu even left tears of remorse and cried loudly. But this cry drew a beating from the guards. At this time, Elusa remembered what Gerald had said to her and knocked out several of the guards. Lead your companions to rise up and start a riot. Because he appeared to be badly injured, Virgil was left in the hole. However, it was just right to continue the cultivation just now, because during this day's torture, Virgil was seriously injured and once again entered the realm of the unity of heaven and man, but was later interrupted by Gerald. This is the perfect time to finish the work that has not been done before.

At this time, the battle also came to an end, because stimulated by the death of Rob's grandfather, Elusa awakened her magic and defeated the guards together.
"Brother Virgil!" Elusa saw Virgil emerge from the cave. "How did you get out? Are you well? Why are the handcuffs gone?" said Elusa with concern.
"It's fine. It's just that they were beaten badly, and their potential was stimulated, and some of their strength was regained, and then they broke free from the handcuffs. I rushed here at the thought of what you were doing so dangerously. Virgil casually made up a reason to prevaricate. "What about Gerald, why didn't you see him?" asked Virgil, mockingly. "He's been arrested to save my brother, and I'm about to save him!" said Elusa. "Alright, let's go together!" "With my brother's help, it will definitely do!" With that, Elusa took Virgil to the place where Gerald was being held.
When they got there, they only saw Gerald killing the guards. After Elusa's persuasion failed, he started to fight Gerald, and the result was, of course, Elusa's defeat, and then Virgil.
I've watched a classic passage in the anime, and now I've experienced this passage myself, and I have to feel sorry for Gerald, and sigh that the power of the plot is really powerful. After summoning the Enma Blade, he fought a big battle with Gerald, and then pretended to be unlucky. Then there was Gerald, the lives of the people on the island threatened the two and made them leave. In desperation, Elusa had no choice but to leave the Tower of Paradise with Virgil.
"I'm sorry, Elusa, I'm useless enough to stop Gerald. Virgil said to Elusa. "There is no such thing, it's just that Brother Virgil was injured too badly, which affected his strength, so he failed. Elusa replied quickly. "What are we going to do now? Why don't you find a guild to join!" Virgil suggested. "Well, I've already figured out that I'm going to Grandpa Rob's guild. Fairy Tail. Elusa said firmly.
