Chapter 264: Are all the mages of Ishgar so morally inferior?
The situation at hand was somewhat awkward.
The three of them were still secretly happy about their tacit understanding, thinking that the people in the new organization they joined were all easy to get along with, and with such teammates, their actions would go smoothly. They thought that with their hard power, tacit understanding, and the little bit of unity they learned from the Guild of Light, no matter how powerful the enemy was, they would be trampled under their feet.
But the next second, reality slapped them in the face.
"Hidden Dragon Slayer Magic is closer to the concept system than the rule system. It is a very tricky magic!"
For some reason, maybe the enemy's intelligence was lowered, or maybe he just wanted to show off his skills, Doken began to explain his abilities to Urrutia, Eric, and Jellal who had just been knocked away by him.
"Making something disappear is a very scary ability, no matter for oneself or the outside world!" Duoken talked freely, and gave the three people a proper chuckle. "Many people have thought about this, right? If you can become invisible, you can go to such and such a place and do such and such a thing, and no one will find out, whether it is good or bad!"
Urrutia's face darkened: "I don't know why, but when I heard that you have this ability, I suddenly felt that this battle must be won!"
"Don't worry! I have never done anything immoral!"
Doken was obviously a very talkative person. He looked up at the ceiling at a 45-degree angle. "Hide your figure, so no one can see you. Hide your smell, so even the Dragon Slayer can't smell it. Hide your thoughts, so no one can know what I'm thinking. Hide the fluctuations of magic power, so even the wizard with super perception can't detect my existence . Finally, if I hide my own existence, all traces of me in the world, including other people's memories of me, will disappear!"
At the end, Doken's tone was a little melancholy: "That really wasn't a good experience..."
Eric turned around and said "huh" harshly: "This ability is really a foul!"
Wow! This ability is really enviable!
“Erase all traces of your existence?
Hearing his words, Urrutia and Eric were suddenly stunned, and a strange thought suddenly came to their minds: If they had never appeared, how would the wheel of history have developed?
For the past ten years, the only difference is that the 'Six Demon Generals' and the 'Seven Followers of Purgatory' have replaced one member; going back further... it seems that there is not much difference.
Eric thought of his partner, Chuberios: "Maybe it will stay in the 'Tower of Paradise' and spend its life in confusion?"
Urrutia first thought of her mother: "Uru will probably accept Leon and Gray as his apprentices, and then sacrifice himself to seal Deliora... But if it weren't for me, Jellal wouldn't have fallen into darkness, and he would be living a better life now, right? Maybe he is also a member of Fairy Tail..."
"Erasing your own existence is certainly wrong!"
Just as the two were daydreaming, Gerard's voice came from the corner of the wall, "Apart from some very rare cases, the biggest reason for doing this is that they feel they have done something wrong in the past and want to make up for their debt to others in this way!"
Eric's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Oh? This guy Gerald..."
Gerard walked out of the smoke and dust slowly, his voice was vague: "But this is just an escape! No matter how heinous your past sins were, you should take responsibility and atone for your mistakes with actions! Instead of using this method to bury all the sins of the past!"
Urrutia smiled knowingly: "If you can see it, it's very clear..."
despair!
The footsteps fell behind Doken, with a loud sound.
Doken looked back at Jellal and saw a pair of bright eyes, his gaze was firm and unwavering, just as sonorous and powerful as his voice.
Gerard looked directly into the eyes of the man in front of him and said, "Will erasing my existence allow those who have been harmed by my sins to let go of their hatred and pretend that nothing has happened? False history cannot defeat true history!"
"Boy! You speak very nicely and your eyes are very nice too!"
Doken exclaimed again, and then changed his tone, "But what does this have to do with me? I just said that I have never done anything immoral, and I haven't made any mistakes in the past!"
"I have only tried the magic of erasing my own existence once, and I recovered immediately afterwards. Speaking of which, the situation at that time was really dangerous. I was almost beaten to death by the president without any explanation. Since then, I decided not to use that magic anymore!"
Hearing the other party's words, Jellal fell silent.
The planned method of empathy and persuasion failed, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward.
Eric snickered at the side: "This guy only knows how to say cool words..."
Gerald: “…”
At this moment, Doken suddenly realized: "Ahem... I get it! You are saying these words to yourself, right? It seems that you have made a lot of mistakes in the past! But as a young man, it is normal to go astray for a while. The most important thing is to get back on the right track in time! And you can still have this kind of awareness, which means that you have changed your mind. It's really good!"
Urrutia was complaining in his heart: "Oh my god! He actually helped Gerald resolve such an embarrassing situation?! This uncle is so kind! Really so kind!"
Jellal could only nod silently, thinking to himself, you're right!
Keep a calm face and pretend that this is what you just said!
"But, I heard that Saint Ten is a very prestigious person here, right? You are so young, and you have such an experience. Are the moral standards of Ishgar wizards so low?"
After hearing this, Eric couldn't stand it any longer: "Hey, hey...uncle! Don't fire the map cannon! The wizards of Ishgar are very strong! Especially that guy just now!"
"Very strong? I can see that..."
Doken thought of Kira, whom he had just met briefly, hesitated for a moment, and said, "So, even in this situation, you still use 'he is strong' instead of 'his moral standards are high'?"
Eric: “…”
This time, it was Eric's turn to be speechless, and he looked up at the ceiling unconsciously.
If one were to ask about Kira's moral level, the answers given by the three victims at the scene would probably not be too different.
At this moment, Gerard suddenly asked, "What you just said seems to be different from the magic you used before to banish the machine to another dimension, right?"
Hearing the voice, Doken interrupted his conversation with Eric and replied, "Indeed, most of them are the defensive part of the Hidden Dragon Slayer Magic. As for hiding its own aura, it can be done without my active use. As for the offensive magic, it is like what I did before, hiding things like machinery!"
"I see. Using space and spirit magic to maximize its concealment, this is the Hidden Dragon Slayer Magic..."
While Doken was chatting with Eric, Gerard was trying to analyze his opponent's weaknesses. 'This guy is really difficult to deal with!'
Seeing Gerard's increasingly serious expression, Duokan suddenly smiled: "What's wrong? Are you scared?"
"Are you scared? Indeed, you are far superior to me in terms of magic and magical power! To be honest, I have no confidence in defeating you..."
Gerard did not answer his question directly. Instead, he tried to praise him first and then to criticize him. Then he changed the subject and regained his confidence from the confusion in his eyes. "But I have a reason to win this battle!"
"Wait a moment!"
Doken suddenly interrupted him, "This should be the first time we meet today?! There was no hatred between us before, right?! Why do you have such an attitude as if I killed your whole family?!"
