Fairy Tail: You call this Celestial Magic?!

Chapter 261 Harvest (Please Subscribe!)
"Ahhhh!!!"

Under Mirajane's control of the receiving magic, the demon could only let out mournful howls.

Who is Mirajane? She is a genius who has just awakened magic and successfully received a demon. Naturally, the soul of the "LULLABY" demon cannot cause any trouble under her control.

"how?"

Moen asked a question, confident that Mira could handle it. He dared not say anything else, but Moen was certain that Mira was much stronger now than she was in the original timeline.

This "LULLABY" has some skill, but not much. Mainly because Moen didn't give it any chance to show it. Now it only has its soul left, so even if it has great strength, it can't exert much of it and can only be easily captured by Mira.

If both sides had physical bodies and fought openly, Moen wasn't sure if Mira alone could defeat the "LULLABY" demon; he could only say it wasn't impossible.

But that was just a hypothetical scenario. Now that Moen is here, the "LULLABY" demon was killed without even a chance.

"We'll be able to take it down completely soon."

Mira smiled. She had completed the takeover of the demon and was now completely suppressing, erasing, and controlling it.

Because this soul is a demon, Mira is naturally extremely cautious in dealing with it; otherwise, if she were to be suddenly betrayed, her fate would not be much better than Elfman's.

"Buzz!"

With a burst of magic, Mira finally succeeded in controlling the "LULLABY" demon and completely harnessed its power for her own use.

"Impressive! You said you'd solve it right away, and you did. You're truly amazing."

Moen gave a compliment, then continued to look at Mirajane with curiosity.

"What abilities does this demon possess?"

Moen asked curiously, feeling that at least one should have the ability to curse, since "LULLABY" was famous for that.

"Full Body Absorption - Satan's Soul - Mirajane Lalabai!"

Mira didn't keep them in suspense and immediately used her newly acquired ability.

After receiving the message, Mira's clothes turned green, horns grew on her head like tree branches, and she held a flute in her hand. Clearly, in this form, she did have abilities related to flute music.

"It does indeed have the power to kill with a curse. Anyone who hears this flute will be threatened with death. If they cannot break the curse, they will soon be cursed to death. It is extremely lethal to ordinary people."

Mira said, "No wonder this 'LULLABY' can easily cause tragedies and leave behind terrifying rumors of 'cursed killing magic.' This thing is too much of a threat to ordinary people; it's practically a human purifier."

"Even mages can't withstand this terrifying incantation for long."

Mira's expression turned serious. She realized that this form was not something that could be used casually, because the essence of this demon was "curse song" and "curse killing," and the power it gave Mira was also this. Once used, it would be a matter of life and death.

"It can be used as a trump card."

Moen nodded. The most awkward thing about this thing is that it doesn't distinguish between friend and foe. Apart from the performer, everyone else who hears this "flute sound" will be affected, which further reduces the opportunities for its use.

"Great, it was worth the trip!"

Mira returned to normal and smiled as she spoke. She was quite happy, after all, she had acquired a trump card.

"Okay, let's call it a day and go home."

Moen clapped his hands, quite satisfied with his haul; at least he'd cleared out a long-standing, unclaimed silver-level quest.

[Ding! The mission "Sealing Curse to Slay the Demon" has been completed!]

Quest Progress: Defeat the demon "Lalabai" (Completed)
Do you want to receive the mission reward? 】

The system pop-up window confirmed Moen's approval, which reassured him that this demon really couldn't cause any trouble.

On the way back, while chatting and laughing with Mira, Moen received his mission rewards, looking forward to this Silver Cloth.

[Congratulations! The Silver Cloth of the Crater Saint has been unlocked!]

The system popped up a notification, and the symbol of Crater appeared. Crater looked like a short-stemmed wine glass with two "ears".

Upon seeing this constellation, Moen couldn't help but feel a surge of joy, for this was undoubtedly another incredibly lucky draw. Among the Silver Saints, there were only a handful who could rival the Gold Saints, and this Crater Saint, Suikyo, was one of them.

'But I remember this was also made with ice.'
Moen recalled that it was indeed true; the ability of the Giant was also related to water and ice, and the Giant used "Giant Water" in battle.

Water can wear away stone and flow can cut through steel, and the secret of the "Crazy Throne" is to condense water into ice spears, powerful enough to pierce through the Gold Cloth.

'Water and ice would be good for Juvia too.'
Since this ability involves water, Moen naturally thought of water-related characters first, and "Rain Girl" Juvia was obviously the perfect fit. Her ultimate move could also condense water into ice, enhancing her attack power.

"Why are you so happy?"

Mira looked at Moen with some confusion, wondering why he was laughing so happily. Had she just said something funny?

"Ahem, it's nothing, I just have some new insights into the power of Protoss magic."

Moen laughed and began to make up stories.

"Huh? Another new insight?!"

Mira's eyes widened in disbelief. What had just happened? What had occurred? Was it when she was playing "LULLABY"? But the problem was, she hadn't played it much!

In the end, Mira had to admit that this might be what true genius was like—being able to improve one's strength just by walking along the road.

In comparison, "geniuses" like her and Erza seem quite ordinary. After all, they also have to work hard to realize their talents; they can't improve their strength without doing anything.

"I just suddenly had a feeling."

Moen explained with a smile that he knew Mira would be surprised, but he didn't think it was anything special. He had been portrayed as a genius for so many years, and everyone was just used to it.

As expected, after the initial shock, Mira returned to normal and no longer had that incredibly shocked expression on her face.

What kind of ability is it?

Now it was Mira's turn to use her inquisitive skills.

"It's Crater Protoss magic, its main ability is manipulating water."

Moen spoke with a smile, which made Mirajane gasp in astonishment. She didn't care whether the magic was from a star spirit or not, nor did she have the right to judge it, but the effect was directly "water element" magic, which was indeed exaggerated.

“It suits Juvia very well.”

Mira's first thought was Juvia, since this "Rain Woman" was the best at water elemental magic in the guild.

"Let's see and then talk."

Moen smiled and nodded. If Juvia was willing, he certainly wouldn't mind teaching her, as long as she was qualified.

"That's wonderful." Mira exclaimed sincerely as she looked at Moen.

"What's so good?"

Moen was taken aback, somewhat confused.

"It feels so good that both of us can gain something and go home happily."

Mira spoke with a smile, clearly enjoying the atmosphere. Being with Moen always made her feel relaxed, and even her mind felt sharper.

Moen smiled but didn't reply. Mira was slightly excited; it seemed that getting a new trump card was indeed a great joy for her.

When the two returned to Bluebell Town, it was already the afternoon of the next day. Many mages had already gathered there, and Moen even saw many familiar faces.

"Moen? Mirajane? You two are here so early?"

Moen noticed an acquaintance, and the acquaintance naturally noticed him as well. The "Four-Headed Hound" squad quickly came to his side, and the one who spoke was none other than Parcas.

It's clear that "Four-Headed Hound" takes this matter quite seriously. Parcas personally led the team, which consisted of top members of the guild, and Parcas himself looked determined to win.

That makes sense, considering the Magic Council offers quite a good reward, so everyone wants to come and try their luck.

"Did you just arrive?"

Instead of answering Packas's question, Moen asked a question in return.

"Yes, it just arrived at noon today."

Packas took a sip of his drink and looked relaxed.

Although Moen and Mirajane looked like they had just returned from the mountains, Packas did not believe they had completed their mission.

He had inquired in the town and found that the mountains and forests had been quiet for the past two days. Moreover, judging from the state of Moen and Mirajane, they did not seem to have just fought a big battle.

"Then you're too late, too late."

Moen shook his head with a smile on his face. This made Pakas's expression shift, and some uneasy feelings began to well up in his heart.

"What do you mean?"

Packas stammered, staring intently at Moen, hoping he would deliver good news rather than bad.

"What I mean is that you've come too late and made a wasted trip. The problem has been solved, and we're on our way back to collect our payment."

Moen spoke with a smile, his expression serious, not joking at all, which made Packas's face darken immediately.

"real or fake?"

Although he already believed it in his heart, Packas still asked a question. He didn't want to believe it, so he rushed over in a hurry, only to have to slink back. This was really embarrassing, especially since he had boasted that he would definitely complete this mission.

"If you don't believe me, you can go and take another look."

Before Moen could speak, Mira spoke first. She had a gentle smile on her face, but her words were a bit impolite, with a hint of anger at being questioned, almost as if she were saying "believe it or not."

"Cough cough cough, don't be angry, don't be angry, Miss Mira. I was just asking casually. Of course I believe you. Now that you have completed your mission, I will take my people back and not disturb your time together. Hehe. Hehe."

Seeing Mira's unfriendly expression, Moen's smile faded, and Packas immediately sprang to attention. He apologized and smiled ingratiatingly as he moved away and disappeared in a flash.

"This guy"

Moen chuckled speechlessly. He glanced at Mira, who also smiled, clearly unconcerned about Pakas's antics.

The two returned to the town elder's house and began packing their things. Their mission was complete, so there was no need for them to stay any longer.

Meanwhile, news that the mission was completed had already spread throughout Bluebell Town. At first, everyone thought it was a smokescreen, but after learning that the people who completed it were Moen and Mirajane, all doubts disappeared.

When everyone went out to inquire, they found out that the two had arrived very early and had indeed just returned from the mountains. The timing matched up perfectly. Some people even came over to ask, and when they saw that Moen and Mirajane were already packing their luggage to leave, they naturally had no choice but to believe it.

In no time, whether they had been there for a while or had just arrived, everyone packed their bags and began to return to the guild.

"You guys clearly have plenty of money, yet you still want to compete with us for missions. You're really not giving us a way to survive!"

Along the way, Packas traveled with Moen and Mirajane for a while. He complained the whole way, his resentment was immense. In fact, he didn't really care much about the mission. He was just being ridiculed, which is why he came to complain.

"Shut up, or I'll sew your mouth shut."

Moen got annoyed and pushed the guy aside. It was only because they were all familiar with each other that this guy dared to complain all the way here. The other mages respected Moen a lot, and no one dared to criticize Moen and the other guy's actions.

"Just you wait! I'm definitely going to steal your missions too!"

Pakas wisely left, and it was time for them to go their separate ways. Before leaving, Pakas said something harsh.

"Don't say things like that, it sounds like something a third-rate villain would say."

Moen made a sarcastic remark, which made Pakas so angry that he jumped up and down, but he could only watch Moen and Mirajane leave.

"Pfft~"

Mira covered her mouth and laughed. Pakas was jumping around, and the way he looked like he wanted to duel with Moen but didn't dare to was really funny.

That drunkard, Pakas, can be quite interesting sometimes, especially after he's had a few drinks. Just now, that guy clearly drank a lot.

"He's quite innocent and doesn't have any bad intentions."

Moen smiled and commented on Packas, saying that most of the people in the two brother guilds were good guys.

"It sounds like someone is being insulted."

Mira smiled and made a sarcastic remark, which sounded like she was saying that Pacas was an idiot, but in fact Pacas was not an idiot at all.

"Anyway, he's not smart."

Moen chatted with Mirajane with a smile, then summoned the Raven aircraft. He hadn't flown with Packas and the others before, but now that they were separated, they started flying again.

They sped all the way back to Fairy Tail.

After submitting the mission report, Moen immediately got busy. He had to go with the old man to attend the routine meeting, the routine meeting of the president of the Magicians' Guild of the Kingdom of Fiore.

This meeting is very important for Fairy Tail because they will be discussing the "S-Class Assessment Competition," and more mage guilds are preparing to participate.

Prior to this, Fairy Tail, Blue Pegasus, and Four-Headed Hound had each organized an assessment. These assessments had allowed them to summarize the procedures in detail, and they were ready to officially promote the program to the outside world.
