Fairy Tail: I'm Not the Most Terrifying Mage

Back to the present.

Gray abruptly pulled Juvia up and turned to run.

Just like a few years ago, he no longer has the strength to deal with powerful magical beasts on his own.

"What's wrong, Lord Gray?" Juvia asked, puzzled.

"We've stumbled into a monster's lair. Not only are there no prey here, but we might also be attacked."

If he had magic, Gray would definitely have charged forward like Natsu, howling – wouldn't he have been easy prey?

We need to be rational now.

Upon hearing this, Juvia staggered after Gray.

There was no way around it; she was a pure mage, and her physical abilities were far inferior to Gray's.

at this time.

"Roar--"

Suddenly, a deafening roar came from the right.

"How did it get over there?" Juvia exclaimed in surprise.

“This is monster territory, it wouldn’t be surprising if that guy appeared anywhere,” Gray said, then immediately changed direction and continued to flee.

But just then, he heard...

"what--"

"I'm doomed, I'm doomed."

"I originally went to find those two humans out of kindness."

"We couldn't save those two humans, but we're going to be killed."

"Waaaaah, so unlucky."

"It's that demon's voice!" Juvia recognized it.

"Is she coming to find us? To save us?" Juvia wondered, listening to the devil's words.

“But we can’t even protect ourselves,” Gray said, then gritted his teeth and said, “Juvia, go back and get reinforcements. I’ll hold it off.”

With that, he took down his longbow and an arrow, and ran toward the direction of the noise.

"I," Jubia hesitated for a moment.

To be honest, they've come a long way.

It was time for her to go find reinforcements.

She gritted her teeth and chased after Gray.

“Lord Grey!” Juvia called out.

“Juvia, what are you doing following me?” Gray said.

“I’ll help you,” Juvia said, then, fearing Gray would send her away, she added, “It’s such a long distance, by the time I run back, it’ll be too late. It’s better to face it together with Lord Gray!”

“You really are something else.” Gray stopped talking.

‘Boom boom boom’

We met.

A gigantic monster, over ten meters tall, was chasing after the demon they had just seen in the flower field.

"Humans?" The demon was taken aback. "You weren't eaten?"

“If you hadn’t provoked it, I think we would be safely out of here by now,” Gray said.

"We were just trying to be kind and remind you," the demon sister said, sounding aggrieved.

"Duck!" Gray suddenly shouted. He drew his bow, pulled it to its full length, and then released it.

'whoosh'

The arrow pierced the air and struck the monster in the knee.

unfortunately

The wound was very shallow; the opponent simply shook his leg, and the arrow was knocked off. Fortunately, it bought a little time, allowing the demon to run further away.

"Foolish human, shoot in the eyes!" the demon shouted.

"You're the idiot." Gray raised his hand and shot an arrow into the monster's eye, but the monster reacted quickly and slapped it away.

What was scraping just now is now ineffective output.

“Got it?” Gray said.

Juvia nodded; she deeply resonated with this sentiment.

After all, she often does this. She doesn't dodge attacks that aren't threatening, which often results in her being at a disadvantage. But when there is a threat, she blocks or avoids it, so she suffers less damage.

‘Boom boom boom’

The monsters are closing in.

Gray and Juvia also turned and ran.

However, with his longbow in hand, he would occasionally turn and fire an arrow, slightly hindering the monster's progress and preventing it from catching up with the two humans and the demon.

But at this moment.

"No, no, we can't go any further!" the demon cried.

"Why? Are you going to stop and die?" Gray asked, puzzled.

"Ahead... ahead is our home!" the demon cried out urgently. "If the Overlord goes there, he will destroy everything!"

'Crash'

As soon as the demon finished speaking, Gray stopped in his tracks, having already slid quite a distance due to his speed.

“Lord Gray?” Juvia and the demon stopped and looked at him.

Gray said, "Then we can't go this way."

He looked at the demon and smiled: "Hey, demon, once this is resolved, give me the most beautiful flower."

The demon was stunned.

Then, Gray turned and ran in another direction.

It should be noted that the speed difference between the two sides was not significant to begin with, and the monster was even slightly faster. It was only by Gray constantly shooting arrows that the opponent's speed was slowed down a little.

Now Gray turns and runs in another direction, adding to the time lost.

This time, the monster was so close to him that Gray didn't even have a chance to draw his bow!

"Lord Grey!" Juvia cried out anxiously, drawing his rapier from his waist and giving chase.

"Hey, human!" the demon cried out as it chased after them.

"Don't hurt my Lord Gray!" Juvia raised her sword and slashed fiercely at the monster's tail!

'when'

The longsword pierced the tail, but got stuck in the bone.

"Roar--"

The monster, in pain, flicked its tail and sent Juvia flying.

Then, the monster turned around and chased after Juvia.

"That idiot!" Gray cursed, firing several arrows, all of which were blocked by the monster's claws.

"Hey, human, are you alright?" The demon picked up Juvia and prepared to run away.

'boom'

A huge, mountain-like shadow enveloped them.

The demon raised its head, looked at the enormous monster, and was terrified.

"Damn it!"

Gray dropped his longbow, drew his greatsword, and slashed at the wound Juvia had inflicted earlier.

His strength far surpasses that of Juvia.

The knife was cut off, and the monster's tail was almost severed as well!

"Roar—" the monster roared and turned to pounce on Gray.

However, Gray was a seasoned fighter. After delivering that blow, he circled around from another direction and ran to Juvia's side to rejoin them.

"Go!" Gray took Juvia and turned to run.

"Humans, what are your names?!" the demon asked as it caught up.

"Why ask this at a time like this?" Gray asked impatiently.

The monster was injured and enraged, so it was chasing even faster than before!

Even if Gray carried Juvia on his back and ran like his life depended on it, it wouldn't be as easy as if he were alone.

At this moment, the distance between the two is closing extremely rapidly!

It was a life-or-death situation!

The demon said, "We are two demons, sisters, born deformed and joined together!"

It's obvious that one of the demons is more lively and talkative, while the other is less talkative.

“I am the older sister,” the taciturn demon said. “My name is Ruhar.”

“I am the younger sister,” the talkative demon said. “My name is Liha.”

Liha said, "If you don't mind that we are weak and deformed, then make a contract with us. It's the only way now!"

"My name is Gray!"

"My name is Juvia!"
