Fairy Tail: I'm Not the Most Terrifying Mage

The turtledove remained calm, gripping the hilt of the knife, and gracefully took a half-step back.

"Moonless Flow - Yaksha Flashes Through the Sky".

In an instant, countless swords flashed and shadows appeared.

Erza's Cyclic Sword was completely shattered!

So strong!

Erza was startled.

The dove hopped down in front of her.

Oops!

Erza quickly used her sword to defend herself.

‘Kacha’

The armor shattered on the spot.

Her sword is too fast!

And it's too sharp!

Erza quickly retreated.

"Moonless Flow—" Izayoi held the sword hilt and spun it around once, "Garuda Flame."

The sparks that burst from the blade transformed into a raging inferno!

"Emperor Yan's Armor!"

Erza quickly changed into armor with high fire resistance.

However, Wuyue Liu's sharp sword aura still forced her back, and the Flame Emperor's Armor on her body crackled and uttered a mournful sound of breaking.

"Change up!"

Erza donned her jet-black armor and wielded a jagged greatsword.

“This armor is unstoppable!” Erza said.

"Bring it on," the turtledove said without fear.

'boom'

The war broke out.

Erza's strength was so great that Ikaruga dared not take it head-on.

But the dove was fast, and Erza suffered quite a few setbacks.

The fierce battle nearly destroyed the environment here.

In the end, the turtledove had a slight advantage.

'boom'

Erza retreated to Hugh's side, her armor tattered and her jagged blade broken.

"Sister!" Hugh exclaimed in shock, "Even someone as powerful as you can't defeat her?!"

“No, Hugh.” Erza retracted her Infernal Armor.

She walked straight toward the turtledove.

"Have they given up resisting?" The dove frowned slightly.

"I am not powerful," Erza said as she changed her clothes.

The new outfit was not armor, but merely a pair of red trousers, with only strips of cloth covering her upper body—she had abandoned all defense!

"But whether it's your lives or Natsu's, I must carry this burden forward—"

"I will absolutely not fall!"

Erza drew two longswords, looked at Ikaruga with unwavering eyes, and said, "Your swordsmanship is very powerful, but... I have an absolute reason why I cannot lose to you!"

The turtledove smiled faintly, gripping the hilt of the knife, and parted her red lips slightly, "Withering is the destiny of love and life."

'boom'

Erza unleashed her full magical power and leaped towards Ikaruga!

Emily must live.

Ryder must be a role model for his younger siblings.

With a faint smile, Izayoi loosened her grip on the hilt as she slashed at Erza.

'Swish'

For an instant.

The outcome has been decided.

The turtledove's long sword shattered, and the beautiful kimono was completely stained red with blood.

"Why?" Erza turned around, frowning as she looked at the back of the dove.

"It is precisely because cherry blossoms only bloom for a week that they are so precious."

The turtledove fell down.

Consciousness gradually blurred.

Memories of the past flooded my mind—

The cute little girl asked, "Master? Why is our swordsmanship called Mugetsu-ryu?"

Lying in bed—the thin, pale woman smiled—"Magic is like a miracle of the sun—"

It will make flowers bloom in spring; make leaves flourish in summer; make fruits ripen in autumn; and bring warmth in winter.

"Isn't that an amazing power?"

"But not everyone possesses powerful magic."

"Is it possible to create miracles without powerful magic or the talent to become a mage?"

"No."

"The moon can also create miracles!"

"It can dispel the darkness when the sun is not out and guide the way of night travelers; it can also make the sea flow and form beautiful tides."

"The Moonless Style, the Way of the Sword—to make every practitioner become that gentle moon, and then to pass on this gentle miracle—to let countless moons illuminate a world where the sun is gone, and to make the one and only moon in the sky no longer lonely."

"When there are more moons, and the moons have accomplished miracles like the sun, then—even if I no longer exist, what is there to be sad about?"

“Turtledove, you are very much like me. I had no intention of teaching you, but this is your choice.”

"Perhaps one day, you will become like me, a silent and dim moon in a world where the light of the moon shines everywhere."

"Like this beautiful flower, it can convey and store love, though it will always wither; that is its destiny."

"But new love can grow around it."

"Dove, are you afraid of withering away like it?"

Chapter 51, The Gathering of the Crowd

The cute little girl patted her chest and assured her, "Master, I'm not afraid!"

[Emily, Ryder, Mary, Harry, Gwen, I'm sorry]

My sister's journey ends here.

The road ahead is yours to walk alone.

That money should be enough to last you for a while. Hopefully, that important figure won't go back on their word.

Doves are not afraid of death.

She had already prepared for this day.

Her master is the former ace mage of the Dark Guild – Skull and Bones.

He was a man who spent his entire life repenting for his past mistakes.

She didn't know much about the early days of the guild, but the previous guild leader was very tolerant of her and her master, and took special care of her.

After her master passed away due to illness, the guild leader arranged for her to become the captain of the Three Crows Squad.

She was unwilling to accept assassination requests or similar assignments.

Therefore, everyone in the guild was very dissatisfied with her.

After the new president took office, conflicts between them continued.

She already knew that this mission was a death sentence.

The new chairman's targeting is definitely not just due to Udarudas's betrayal.

This is the law of the dark world: once you offend someone, you must eliminate them completely, or you will be retaliated against sooner or later!

Therefore, even if she kills Udarudas, there will definitely be all sorts of conspiracies and enemies coming in droves—they will not stop until she is killed.

fighting.

The turtledove is not afraid.

But her family background is not a secret.

The new chairman was ruthless. Once, in an attempt to make an example of someone, a member's wife became pregnant, and he wanted to quit. As a result, the new chairman sent people to kill his entire family, leaving no one alive.

The turtledove dared not gamble.

In this situation, she couldn't find a way to break the deadlock.

She had lost her protector and had never had any friends.

Alone, facing the insane retaliation of an entire dark guild, she could die like a hero.

But the other party won't give her that chance; they're more likely to threaten her with her younger siblings.
