Chapter 201 Receiving the Demon Egg, Demon King Mirajane!
Eclair ultimately stayed with the guild. With Lucy's introduction, her companions accepted this adorable new shrine maiden almost without hesitation.
"It's simpler than I imagined. I thought at least a blood test would be required, but they didn't even ask about the origin of the blood—"
Eclair sat at a table in the corner of the guild, with Mengmeng next to her and Erza and Happy opposite her.
"Fairy Tail doesn't care about a member's past. Once you join, you're all a partner, right, Eclair?" Erza said gently.
The confusion in Eclair's eyes inevitably reminded her of when she first escaped the Tower of Paradise and came to the guild, and her words were filled with emotion and relief.
"Yes, thank you, Erza." Eclair bowed slightly in thanks.
"So don't be so formal, just make yourself at home," Erza said with a smile.
"Love~ That's right!"
Harpy raised his hand in agreement, then jumped onto the table with an eager expression. He unusually generously pulled out a treasured fresh seafood from behind his back. "Would you like some fish?"
"Thank you, but I just had breakfast and I'm not very hungry yet." Akelia waved her hand politely.
With Lucy and Chase as examples, she had a preconceived good impression of the guild's mages, unlike her cold and silent demeanor when she first arrived at Fairy Tail in the movie.
More than that, she was curious about why the cat in front of her could speak like a human.
She clearly doesn't look like a doll with self-awareness at all, like Mengmeng.
"Okay, what about you, Mengmeng? Birds probably like to eat fish, right?"
As if he had already decided on his target, Harpy immediately turned around and presented the fish to the yellow-clad Mist.
Although he didn't show it, being in a guild full of humans, he had long wanted a "sister" like Mengmeng. Upon hearing this, Erza's eyes widened, revealing an expression of utter shock: "A little bird? I thought it was some kind of little yellow duck!"
"Actually, Mengmeng's name means rat."
Eclair, the creator, spoke up earnestly, correcting a mistake.
Mengmeng: "..." Is it really appropriate for you guys to start discussing my species classification like this?
It's clearly a doll! Eclair's best friend!!
"Hey hey, how old is Akelia this year? Does she have a boyfriend?"
The lewd, middle-aged man's voice that suddenly came from behind startled Eclair and Mengmeng.
It's that old pervert with eyes full of love, Pavkaba.
"Damn it! I wasn't paying attention and this guy beat me to it!" Macao, who was not far away, gritted his teeth in anger.
"Wakaba, don't scare the newbie. Also, you dropped your cigarette ash on the floor, clean it up right now!" Erza glared at her fiercely.
"Oh? Yes!"
The imposing aura of a true disciplinary committee member swept over him, and Wakaba, feeling the chilling coldness, immediately became obedient, bending down to clean up the cigarette ash.
Seeing this, Macao suddenly felt that being a step behind might not be such a bad thing.
The rescued Eclair was stunned: Such a strong aura, completely different from Lucy's!
Wait a minute, thinking about it carefully, Lucy seemed to have said last night that Erza was the strongest female mage in the guild, a terrifying monster who should never be offended.
For a moment, the new guild member sat up straight like a child over four hundred years old, looking at Erza with a hint of fear in his eyes.
Lucy, Chase, come back soon! I can't take this anymore!
As Cana, Bisca, Marcus, and others came over to greet her, Eclair, who was not good at communicating with people, frantically called out Lucy and Chess in her mind.
However, the two siblings are now destined not to have time to come and save the day.
Lucy, who had demonstrated her superhuman strength, was currently being entangled by Natsu and Elfman, who were challenging her to a duel.
Meanwhile, Chess was sitting at the bar chatting with Mira about his experiences with the SS commission.
"The Demon King and the Phoenix? I never expected that the commission would involve these two legendary demons, and it even involved an attack by the Dark Guild, the Gates of the Underworld."
Mira rested her chin on her hand and murmured, "No wonder no one has been able to finish it for so long—"
Just from Chase's description, she could already imagine how difficult this commission would be.
Putting aside the fact that the Demon King's full awakening led to the Council's intervention and the involvement of the Tartaros, if things had continued as they were, this commission might very well have been upgraded again and become a ten-year mission!
"It was indeed somewhat unexpected, but we also gained something unexpected."
With that, Chase took out the card containing the Demon King's egg and handed it to Mira. "Here, this is a gift for you."
"For me, the best gift is for Chase and Lucy to return safely~"
Even so, Mira was overjoyed to hear that the card dealer had actually prepared a gift for her.
Having known each other for almost three years, this was the first time she had received a gift from Chase. With a big smile on her face, she quickly "snatched" the card.
"This is?"
The magic circle unfolded, and a milky-white stone egg emerged from the golden light, coming into Mira's view.
"The Demon King's Egg, strictly speaking, belongs to the category of demons. I thought you should be able to receive the power inside, so I brought it back," Chess said.
"Oh, I see—." Mira clearly showed her disappointment.
She thought it was a unique piece of jewelry or a souvenir suitable for girls.
This barely perceptible sense of loss was quickly replaced by seriousness and solemnity—from the demon egg, Mira sensed extremely frenzied and evil energy!
That intense demonic energy was exactly the same as that of the demon Shuttli and the demon god Halphas!
"I'll give it a try."
Realizing that the magic egg was extraordinary, Mira slowly stood up, placed her fair hands on the surface of the magic egg, closed her eyes, and mobilized all her magic power to cast a receiving spell.
As the dark purple magic circle unfolded, the demon egg on the table began to shake violently, constantly emitting black smoke.
An evil, chilling aura erupted and instantly spread throughout the entire guild.
Everyone present was startled by the aura emanating from the bar. They stopped chatting, their nerves on edge, and looked warily toward the bar.
"Damn it—how dare this lowly human do such a thing to me!!!"
A hoarse, piercing roar came from the demon egg. The Demon King, who was in a deep sleep, realized that his power and even his consciousness were being forcibly devoured, and thus became extremely angry.
Despite his resistance, Mira frowned, and beads of sweat kept appearing on her forehead.
Although the Demon King is currently in a state of extreme weakness, the essence of receiving magic is to seize demonic power. In order to avoid the abnormal berserk state that Elfman experienced when receiving the Beast King, Mira must completely erase the Demon King's mental will.
The difficulty and danger of the entire process far exceed simply defeating the Demon King in terms of strength!
Chase noticed Mira's struggle, and with a flash of light at his fingertips, he unleashed a series of buff spell cards, including the Book of Arcane Arts, the Mage's Power, and the Pot of Greed.
"Drink it!!!"
With the support of multiple buffs, Mira unleashed an unprecedentedly powerful magic.
It's sizzling!
Black lightning leaped, and a massive black-purple magic circle bloomed in the guild hall.
A fierce wind howled, causing the girl's burgundy dress and long white hair to dance wildly.
The Demon King roared angrily, but his voice was no longer as arrogant and domineering as before; instead, it carried a clear and audible terror—his consciousness was gradually fading away!
The stalemate between the two sides did not last long; after a few dozen seconds, the heart-pounding noise gradually subsided.
Nazuna Lucy and the others looked up.
Before a messy bar, black light slowly flowed, and long white twin tails fluttered in the wind, making the demon wings and demon tails on their backs look even more domineering and handsome.
Clad in heavy black armor yet exuding sexiness, beneath Mila's signature bangs lies a beautiful face half-covered by jet-black patterns, and sharp eyes engraved with ancient runes.
Demon Queen Mira, reception successful!
