Chapter 234 Saving Private Lisanna (Please Subscribe!)

"Of course I can handle it!"

In response to Moen's question, Mirajane immediately answered with unwavering certainty.

"I already told you not to ask anyone else for help."

After answering Moen's question, Mirajane looked at Lisanna again, her expression somewhat unhappy, as if she was complaining that Lisanna didn't believe in her abilities.

Mirajane was going on a mission, and Elfman was worried and insisted on going with her. Lisanna was also worried and wanted to go too. In addition, she wanted to invite others to help.

It's understandable that Lisanna would be worried, given that this is an "S-rank mission," specifically an emergency subjugation combat mission.

Mirajane has become an "S-class mage," and now she can naturally take on S-class missions. This is her first time carrying out an S-class mission, and her younger siblings naturally hope to do their part to help their older sister get off to a good start.

An S-rank mage can accept an S-rank mission, and even if the other members are not S-rank, they can still help. It's not that the entire team has to be S-rank.

Of course, since S-rank missions are very difficult, those who are not at the S-rank level can offer very little help. Generally, an "S-rank mage" will not take a non-S-rank mage with them on a mission.

Mirajane has just been promoted to "S-class mage" and is currently at her most confident. Of course, she doesn't think she can't handle it.

Since her younger siblings were worried about her, she decided to take them with her, as if it were a chance for them to broaden their horizons. Mirajane was confident that she could protect her younger siblings.

Klisana's idea of ​​inviting others to help seemed to provoke Mirajane, as if she didn't trust Mirajane's abilities.

She actually asked others for help, but she didn't need anyone's help at all, not even Elfman and Lisanna. She could solve the problem herself.

"I don't have a sister, I just felt that having more people around would give me a better chance of success."

Lisanna was thoroughly scolded by Mirajane and explained while shrinking back.

Lisanna has grown up a bit now, and she's already fourteen years old. She's almost as tall as her older sister Mirajane.

But Lisanna didn't dare say much in front of Mirajane. "The eldest sister is like a mother," and Mirajane's position in the family was undoubtedly high; her younger siblings all had to listen to her.

"I also feel that there is no need to ask others for help. A real man should protect his family on his own. I can protect my older sister and younger sister all by myself!"

Elfman patted his chest and spoke with absolute certainty.

The kid is getting taller and stronger, and he is indeed becoming more and more like a man. Elfman is really tall. At fifteen years old, he is already nearly 1.9 meters tall, almost 2 meters, which is much taller than the people around him.

"You are quite confident."

Moen grumbled, "Elfman wants to protect Mirajane, but even the two of him combined are no match for her. But his intentions are precious."

"Hehe~"

Elfman scratched his head. Of course he knew he wasn't as good as his sister, but if they really encountered an enemy, he would never back down and would never let the enemy harm his sister and sister.

"What exactly is the mission?"

Moen looked at Mirajane with some curiosity.

"It's a mission to slay the monster known as the Beast King."

Mirajane said that these kinds of fighting missions were a piece of cake for her; it was just a magical beast.

"Beast King."

Moen thought for a moment, and an image came to mind: a monster that looked somewhat like a gorilla with horns on its head.

This kind of magical beast is very rare and quite powerful, mainly because it has a lot of magic power; otherwise, it wouldn't be an S-rank mission.

"With Mira's strength, dealing with this kind of magical beast shouldn't be a problem."

As someone who had fought against monsters like the "Beastmaster," Moen made his judgment.

"But that's on the premise that the Beast King is just an ordinary breed."

Moen added that if it were the "King of Kings," the outcome would be unpredictable, as the magic of such creatures is quite volatile, especially that of the "King of Kings."

Even now, Mirajane might not be able to defeat a true "King of Kings".

"Even if it's not an ordinary one, I can defeat it."

Mirajane wrinkled her nose and retorted to Moen, saying she didn't think she could lose to such a magical beast.

"You didn't do any prior research at all?"

Seeing Mirajane's confidence, Moen looked surprised. If he had done some research beforehand, he wouldn't have underestimated this "Beast King" and wouldn't have taken the "King of Kings" so lightly.

"What's there to know? It's just fighting a Warcraft. I've read about it in books, and I don't think it's that difficult."

Mirajane's eyes widened, looking very confident. She had done her research beforehand and knew some basic information about the "Beast King," as well as that the "King of Kings" was more powerful than the ordinary "Beast King." But so what? No matter how powerful it was, she would still defeat it!

"."

Moen opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything. Having just passed the S-class assessment and become an "S-class mage", Mirajane was obviously bursting with confidence. After all, she was also an "S-class mage" who got first place, just like Erza.

The second "Joint S-Level Assessment of the Three Associations" organized by "Four-Headed Hounds" was even more brutal than the first one.

After the entire assessment, only Mirajane was promoted and became an "S-class mage" because Mirajane demonstrated abilities that surpassed those of the other candidates.

Last year, when Erza took the exam, Mirajane was at least able to fight her to a standstill. But this year, Mirajane stood out completely, crushing everyone to become an "S-class mage." It's not surprising that Mirajane is a bit overconfident now.

People can't teach you everything, but experience can. One lesson is enough. Miran's current mindset is that she needs to suffer a lot and stumble once. Just one lesson is enough for her to wake up.

"Then go ahead."

Moen nodded and said no more.

"Don't worry, we'll be back soon."

Mirajane confidently made her promise, and then set off with Elfman and Lisanna. Elfman was just as confident as his sister, but Lisanna had a worried look on her face.

Lisanna looked at Moen, her eyes pleading though she didn't speak; she wanted Moen to help them. Moen nodded to Lisanna, instantly turning the worried girl's expression to joy. Lisanna knew very well that with Moen's help, even the most difficult task wouldn't be a problem.

As Mirajane and her two siblings gradually disappeared into the distance, Moen did not immediately follow them, but instead sent Raven to keep watch.

Moen returned to the guild and checked the quest logs to see what had happened.

After reviewing the mission log, Moen had a premonition that this "Beast King" would most likely teach Mirajane a lesson. According to the information provided by the mission client, this "Beast King's" power was clearly greater than that of an ordinary "Beast King".

[Ding! Mission triggered!]

Mission Name: "Saving Private Lisanna"

Mission Objective: The overconfident siblings Mirajane and Elfman will pay the price for their "confidence," and that price will be the loss of their younger sister, Lisanna. This is incredibly unfair to Lisanna; why should she be the one to sacrifice herself? Operation Save Private Lisanna, begin!
Task progress:

Help Lisanna return safely from the "Beastmaster Slaying" quest. (Incomplete)
Mission Reward: Random Gold Saint Skill. 】

"?"

Looking at this task, Moen was surprised. In the end, Mirajane learned a lesson that was losing Lisanna.
"This is indeed a rather terrible price to pay."

Moen felt suffocated just thinking about it.

If Lisanna were to perish in this mission, Moen couldn't even imagine what would become of Mirajane and Elfman, who were still alive, after all, she was his own sister.

Even if the siblings eventually come back alive, it's probably no different from being dead; their hearts are already dead.

"Therefore, we must stop all of this from happening."

Without hesitation, Moen immediately went out to chase after Mirajane, Elfman, and Lisanna, and he would follow them in secret.

Although Mirajane and her family have only been with the guild for a little over four years, Moen has already developed a very close relationship with them, like family.

Therefore, even if the mission is not triggered, Moen will go with them this time and protect them in secret.

Now that he knows Lisanna might have met with misfortune during this mission, Moen naturally has no reason not to go.

If something really happens to Lisanna, not only will Mirajane and Elfman be heartbroken, but Moen will also be devastated, as will his guildmates.

Soon, Moen caught up with Mirajane, Elfman, and Lisanna. With crows following them, they were naturally kept a close watch.

Moen didn't rush to show himself, but secretly followed her all the way, keeping his attention on Lisanna and ready to make a move at any time.

Lisanna's "tragedy" may not necessarily have been caused by the "Beastmaster." At least the "quest details" did not say that it was because of the "Beastmaster's" sacrifice. Therefore, Moen was on high alert the whole time, fearing that something might suddenly appear and kill Lisanna.

Fortunately, Lisanna was very well-behaved. She didn't run around or act alone, and stayed by her sister Mirajane's side the whole time.

Unlike her initial worries, Lisanna felt much more at ease now, especially after seeing the crows in the sky. She knew that Moen was watching them.

Soon, Mirajane and her two companions arrived at a small town, met the client, and obtained more detailed information about the "Beast King" from him.

"Sister, this sounds..."

After listening to the client's detailed description of the "Beast King," Lisanna's expression changed. She thought to herself that Moen had guessed correctly; this "Beast King" was indeed extraordinary!
The strength of a "Beast King" can be judged from its physical characteristics such as fur color and body size. According to the client's description, the "Beast King" has dark red fur and a body as large as a small mountain. This is obviously not an ordinary "Beast King", but a "King of Kings"!
"Yes, I know."

Mirajane nodded with a serious expression.

"Lisanna, Elfman, you two stay in town. You don't need to come with me. I'll deal with this monster myself."

After confirming that the "Beast King's" strength exceeded expectations, Mirajane became cautious. At least she no longer planned to bring her younger siblings along. She felt that she might not be able to focus on protecting her younger siblings and had to fight the monster with all her might.

"How can this be?! Since this monster is more powerful than we imagined, doesn't my sister need our help even more?!"

Elfman immediately protested his sister's request. He had come to help, and his sister desperately needed help. How could he stay in town? Wouldn't that be a wasted trip?

"Sister! I'm not weak at all! I can definitely help!"

Seeing that Mirajane remained silent, Elfman continued, "This kid's strength has indeed improved a lot, and he can now fully absorb it. His 'Beast Soul' is a magic that excels in combat."

"Then Lisanna can stay by herself."

Seeing her brother's continued protests, Mirajane finally changed her mind; Elfman's abilities could indeed be of help.

Most importantly, Elfman is also tough. Even if there is real danger, he has a chance to escape and won't be knocked down directly.

In this respect, Lisanna has no advantage. Her "Animal Soul" ability in direct combat is far inferior to Elfman's. She is known for her agility but is not very durable. It would be too dangerous for Lisanna to fight the "Beast King".

"."

Lisanna opened her mouth, but she couldn't find a reason to argue. She knew that if she went, she would only be a hindrance.

"Sister, should we ask for help?"

Lisanna spoke softly, suggesting that under these circumstances, requesting support from Fairy Tail headquarters and sending more mages would actually be the safer course of action.

"no!"

Mirajane rejected the suggestion outright. Although the target was indeed stronger than expected, she hadn't even tried yet, so how could she give up so easily?

"Let's try it first, and if it really doesn't work, then we'll ask for help."

Seeing Lisanna's worried expression, Mirajane smiled and ruffled Lisanna's hair. No matter what, she had to give it a try first.

Since Mirajane had already gone this far, Lisanna naturally couldn't persuade her any further and could only let Mirajane and Elfman give it a try.

"Alright, let's give it a try. Mira, Elfman, don't be reckless. If you can't beat them, run away!"

Lisanna nodded and gave her older sister and brother some instructions.

"Don't worry, I definitely won't be reckless."

Mirajane readily agreed. Although she had become more cautious, she had not lost confidence in herself. She felt that she might be able to defeat the "King of Kings Beast King". Without a real fight, it was still unknown who would be stronger.
