Fairy Tail: I'm Not the Most Terrifying Mage

Page 199

'boom--'

The lush forest ahead was shattered by this roar.

"Can't you take better care of the environment?" Yefried asked.

Laxus ignored him and transformed into a bolt of lightning, rushing inside.

"Brother Laxus, wait for me!" Lisanna quickly transformed into a catgirl and chased after him.

Yefried cast a spell and quietly followed.

Ahead, Laxus was already fighting a large number of monsters, and Lisanna was also occasionally taking some damage, which made it impossible for Laxus to concentrate on the battle. He had to keep an eye on Lisanna's situation at all times.

“Yefrit,” Laxus called out.

He wanted to entrust the task of protecting Lisanna to Yefrit.

“I’m not here, so you’ll have to watch over things yourself,” Yefrit replied.

He bypassed the battlefield and ventured deeper into the area.

After going around a mountain, we came across a research institute.

Outside the research institute stood a dozen or so powerful humanoid magical beasts.

Each one possesses strength approaching S-rank.

With that kind of strength, Lucy was chased so hard she had to run away with her head in her hands. Even if Natsu and Gray came, they would have to take a good beating before they could all be defeated.

And this is not even the strongest.

Using the advantages of magic, Yefrit bypassed the magical beasts and entered the research institute.

There are three more powerful humanoid monsters—all of them are burly men two meters tall, and have basically deviated from the characteristics of monsters, except that they have more abundant body hair.

Surprisingly, these three monsters all have the same face.

They all had their eyes closed and were unaware that the enemy had already infiltrated their headquarters.

Yefrit was cautious. These three magical beasts were all as strong as an S-rank mage from a typical guild. Of course, this was based on their magical energy fluctuations, which were their theoretical values. In a real fight, they might not be able to match a more experienced mage of the same rank.

After bypassing the three magical beasts, Yefrit stopped outside the deepest laboratory.

The door was closed; we couldn't get in.

Yefried sensed it.

There is a magic power that is close to Erza's level, an ordinary magic power, and a weak magic power.

Let's wait and see.

After a few minutes.

The sounds of battle in Laxus were getting closer and closer.

Yefriede has finally completed the infection of all her members.

The will of these magical beasts is far less steadfast than that of the mages.

He pulled out Honey and slashed open the laboratory door with a single stroke.

Inside, there were two people—a middle-aged mage in a white coat and a burly man—lying on the operating table.

The two men have similar appearances, suggesting they are related by blood. The burly man's face is exactly the same as the three humanoid monsters outside, clearly indicating that he is the source of their bloodline.

There was another cat—golden fur, pointed ears—that was kept in a cage and was in poor physical and mental condition.

It seems this is the Speed we've been looking for.

"Little brother," the middle-aged mage said gently, "I will soon have your perfect body ready for you. There is only one last step left. Then you can be resurrected."

Yefrit walked over to the middle-aged mage and watched him perform surgery.

He took two lumps of flesh, then cut open the strong man's back, transplanted the two lumps of flesh onto the back, and then performed the nerve linking surgery.

"This is something I researched from a magical species—a pair of wings. With these wings, your childhood wish to fly will come true," the middle-aged mage said gently, clearly showing his love for his younger brother.

However, this burly man was not his brother, but rather a body he had made for his brother.

Yefried understood.

This guy is trying to bring the dead back to life.

First, use magical beasts for life forging to create a powerful body.

They summoned the spirits of the dead again, hoping to bring them back to life.

That's quite a big move.

Yefried wasn't in a hurry. He watched as the other person finished the surgery, and then picked a peach.

‘Boom boom boom’

The sounds of battle from Laxus were growing ever closer.

"Damn it!" The middle-aged mage angrily threw down his scalpel and said, "Which dared to ask for death again!"

"Caw caw," a crow cawed.

"Say!"

"Master, a powerful mage is charging this way, and the magical beasts can't stop him!"

"Let all those useless people outside take action."

"Yes."

The powerful magical beasts outside have all moved.

Yefritte ignored it.

The difference between an S-rank guild member and an S-rank member like Laxus is significant.

The middle-aged mage continued performing the surgery.

His movements were skilled, though somewhat rough, and he finished quickly.

"That's pretty good, but there's still room for improvement. By the way, why use magical beasts? They have a limit." Yefrit stroked her chin, already pondering how to use this thing.

"I need a new face, it's a bit ugly."

This is his assessment.

'Sizzle'

The middle-aged mage has started drawing magic circles again.

A magic circle for summoning souls.

Yefried glanced at it; it looked familiar—he could do that too.

It's nothing but self-deception.

Summoning a soul is indeed correct, but it will only summon a random evil spirit.

This guy, if I weren't there, he would definitely have killed himself.

Therefore, if you lack sufficient knowledge, don't touch these taboos.

This isn't gambling, this is reckless behavior—even the smallest gamble has a chance of winning, but reckless behavior is pure suicide.

Yefried followed behind and began making the changes.

With the magic of deception at play, the other party wouldn't notice anything amiss.

The modified magic circle is now glowing.

Yes, literally, it means to emit light.

At this time.

The trapped kitten cried out, "Stop! Don't make another mistake!"

"Shut up, Speed!" the middle-aged mage roared. "You're useless now. If it weren't for your special status, you wouldn't have any value to exist!"

Speed was startled. He looked outside and heard the intense sounds of battle.

He couldn't help but clasp his hands together and prayed fervently, "Mr. Laxus, you must protect that mage and make him back down. This place is too dangerous. Don't let him lose his life like I did."

“???” Yefrit tilted her head slightly.

Why is this guy bringing up Laxus?

He is a transcendent being, so it's normal for him to know Laxus. However, mentioning Laxus at this time is somewhat unexpected.

The middle-aged mage finished drawing the magic circle.

"younger brother--"

"We brothers will be reunited soon!"

'Boom'

at this time.

The ceiling was suddenly ripped off, or more accurately, it was blown over by a roar.

'boom'

A monstrous beast fell from the sky, its body charred black.

"This is!!" Speed stared wide-eyed, looking outside expectantly.
