Chapter 75 Kira's Gift
Inside the mysterious cave, the three remaining demons from the "Sea Devil Resurrection Plan" held another meeting.
"Ace, Klaue..."
"Yes, I know. We were caught by those wizards!"
Although he is a demon, Ferge still values his companions relatively speaking: "Then we should go save her..."
"No, since we were able to defeat Klaue, it means that our opponent has the means to restrain our unique magic. What we should do now is to avoid their attack and patiently wait for the Master's resurrection."
Ace's analysis was correct, but it did sound a bit cold.
The cold words chilled Ferg's heart, and he dissuaded loudly: "Ace, we have already lost Walter because of a mistake. Do we still have to give up Klaue? She is just a child, the future of our family!"
"The future of our clan does not belong to her, but to the Lord!" Ace's face looked a little crazy, as if he was lured by a false dream. "As long as the Lord is resurrected, there will be as many half-blood demons like her as we want!"
Unreasonable!
This guy is totally crazy!
Ferge turned away angrily, and Sinuoyi looked at his back in silence.
Even Snoy, who was usually at odds with Klaue, felt that what Ace said was a bit too unkind. After all, they had been friends for decades.
"You brought her here, is it really okay to just throw her away like a pawn?"
"In the face of a greater goal, all sacrifices are worth it!"
"But this is not a necessary sacrifice!"
"But it may affect the implementation of the plan, right?"
Si Nuoyi was silent for a moment, then asked, "Aren't you worried that she will leak the plan?"
"Don't worry! She's more resilient than you know!" Ace's smile was quite cruel, "That little girl will keep her mouth shut for our dreams!"
…
The next day, the early morning sunlight became even more dazzling after being reflected by the snow.
After resting for a night, Kira and others decided to attack again, go to the demons' stronghold, and completely destroy their ultimate target, the Frozen Sea Demon King.
"Why do I feel like we are the villains? They spent decades planning and implementing it, but we ruined it all for a mission..." Kira said jokingly.
"Don't say such things!" Erza said righteously, "Their goal is to revive a powerful demon, a tyrant who may cause a disaster. Even if it is not a mission, we should stop it if we see it!"
Seriously, Erza really doesn't understand jokes at all...
"I know! I mean, you're taking it too seriously!"
At this time, Gray and Natsu came over yawning and asked, "How should we act?"
These two fighting guys couldn't sit still since yesterday. They went crazy after drinking some wine. If Erza hadn't knocked them out, they would have almost rushed over and attacked Huanglong directly.
Especially Gray, after hearing that this mission once again involved demons, absolute freezing, and moon drops, he wanted to fly over immediately to teach them what ice magic was...
"Don't worry, the heads have been allocated to you!"
Afterwards, Kira called everyone over and discussed for a while: "According to the current intelligence, there are three demons on the opposite side, and a demon king who may be resurrected at any time, so the main attack will be left to me, Erza, Natsu, and Gray."
"As for the four of you," he pointed at the remaining few people, "stay here and guard the prisoner. After all, she is your companion. I guess those demons may come to rescue her."
After talking about the personnel allocation, Kira warned again: "Be careful of the wolf pack! Although they are not strong individually, their large numbers can still cause some trouble."
"If you encounter the enemy's demons and cannot defeat them, remember to give a signal and we will rush over as quickly as possible!"
Although these words were full of care, the few people who stayed behind were a little unhappy after hearing them - each person in the main attacking team was assigned an opponent, and when it was our turn, couldn't four of us beat one opponent?
"Don't worry! It won't be useful!"
"If the other side comes to rescue us, let us take care of defeating the demons!"
"That's right, don't underestimate us, we are all very reliable! Right Lucy?"
“Um… this… hahahaha…”
Obviously, they were the only three who were dissatisfied. Lucy had little confidence in her own abilities, and she was not a competitive person.
"By the way, speaking of this," Kira suddenly remembered something after hearing Cana's words, and took out a small box from his space equipment and handed it to Lucy, "I heard that you took an S-level mission without permission. In order to prevent any accidents, I brought this with me. I didn't expect that I didn't use it. I'll lend it to you this time."
Seeing the very familiar box that Kira handed over, Lucy was a little surprised: "This box... could it be...??!!"
"Well, Star Spirit Key, you must return it to me after the mission is over!"
"Can you really lend it to me?" Lucy's eyes were full of light, as if her eyes had turned into star keys, which looked a little funny.
Kira smiled and nodded: "Although it may not be used this time, it is better to be prepared! After the mission is over..."
"Thank you so much!"
Before he could finish his words, Lucy rushed over and hugged Kira tightly. Of course, don't get the wrong idea, it was just a proper hug between friends, full of gratitude.
Although this gratitude is big and soft, Kira is not someone who will indulge in it. He is a "sage"! Besides, helping others is his hobby, let alone his companions?
So he pushed Lucy away reluctantly: "It's not okay to thank me in this way. You still have to give it back to me after this, understand?"
But Lucy was already immersed in the joy of obtaining the Celestial Key and didn't listen to Kira's words at all.
"let's go!"
After giving some instructions on how to deal with some possible situations, Kira and the others turned around and set off for the demon base they had seen in Klaue's memory.
After reading Klaue's memory, Kira was surprised to find that he had been to this base once before, to the cave he walked through yesterday.
In addition to the path he had walked on, which was right in the middle of the mountain top, there were two other paths, one leading to the meeting room and the other leading to the secret room where the Sea Demon King was sealed.
It's outrageous! I can always choose the remaining one in the three-choice question! Kira once again worried about his luck in getting the wrong multiple-choice question.
But fortunately, as they say, the first time is a new experience, the second time is familiar, and Kira will not be wrong this time.
In a blink of an eye, the four of them arrived at the cave. It was magnificent and full of dazzling things. The gorgeous decorations in the cave shocked Erza and the other two who were visiting for the first time.
"I didn't expect there was such a place deep in Zonia..."
"Judging from the traces around it, this place has existed for a long time."
"They're actually a group of very wealthy demons, harpy!"
"Hey!" The harpy looked left and right in the air, and no one knew what he was thinking.
As for Kira, he was obviously in a better mood than when he first came yesterday, because soon, these things would be his!
The last time I came, I was also tempted, but I didn’t think about it because I was worried that it might be someone else’s thing. But now... the devil’s things are my Kira’s things!
They will be dealt with anyway, and there is no point in keeping these jewels here, so why not let me take over!
The other people are not greedy for money, so at most each of them can be given a gem. Well, perfect!
