Fairy Tail: I Am the God

A burning fireball, with a flick of Leon's finger, hurtled towards the tree entwined with blood demons.

The blood demon, which had just regained its footing, had its tail tightly hooked onto the tree and could only watch helplessly as the fireball struck the tree trunk with a deafening roar.

Click...

With a crisp sound, the tree was shattered by the fireball, and the blood demon's tail returned empty-handed.

Caught off guard by this sudden blow, the Blood Demon, whose intelligence was already low, was somewhat unable to react.

He just stared blankly at the scene, then his foot slipped and he fell down hard, his face showing a completely bewildered expression.

"Even in death, they still have to act cute. It's really not easy being a monster in this world!"

Leon stepped onto the ice and walked directly in front of the Blood Demon.

At this moment, the Blood Demon's entire body was covered in wounds, with many ice shards embedded directly into his flesh, and his dazed expression seemed to be pondering some countermeasure.

Leon shook his head with amusement, then slowly extended a finger and tapped it on the Blood Demon's large head.

"farewell."

hum...

Ice-based magic flowed and surged forth, spreading out and covering the blood demon's entire body.

Ice magic – Freeze.

Like the last straw that broke the camel's back, the Blood Demon was completely frozen inside the ice by Leon's finger.

A few seconds later, everything calmed down, as if nothing had happened.

"broken."

Leon murmured a sentence.

The entire Blood Demon Ice Block shattered instantly, turning into ice crystals that dissipated into the world.

...

"nailed it?"

Inside the teahouse in Yongning Village, Huo Xiaolan and Song Tianyin each lay in a rocking chair, watching Leon emerge from the underground cave.

Leon nodded slightly in response, then his gaze swept over Song Tianyin's stomach, making Song Tianyin look uneasy.

"Brother, didn't you say there were two ways?"

Song Tianyin, clutching his stomach, offered the recliner to the returning Leon in a fawning manner, and whispered, "Could you tell me what methods you used?"

Leon didn't stand on ceremony. He sat down on the recliner, rocking back and forth, and said, "Simple. First, you give birth to the child!"

"Have a baby!"

Song Tianyin looked as if he had swallowed a fly, shaking his head repeatedly with a wronged expression:

"No, absolutely not! How could I, a grown man, possibly have a child? Tell me your second idea!"

"The second one..."

Leon pointed to Song Tianyin's stomach and said in a very cold tone, "The second method is to cut open the baby and take it out!"

"One cut, and the child is out! Is this...is this safe?"

"It's hard to say. If the knife is sharp, one strike will suffice. But if there are some mishaps, it's hard to say how many strikes it might take. Hmm, let's say it's fifty-fifty, and we'll leave our fate to fate!"

"A 50/50 chance, that's a bit of a slim one!"

Upon hearing that there was a 50% chance of death, Song Tianyin immediately hesitated and couldn't help but ask softly, "Are there any other ways?"

"That's it. Either you give birth, or I'll cut you open. You choose!"

Leon smiled. From Song Tianyin's evasive gaze, he didn't believe that such a person could be so heartless as to gamble on a 50% chance.

Sure enough, when Song Tianyin heard Leon tell him to choose, his face turned pale.

After much thought, Song Tianyin still felt that having a child was better than taking a gamble, at least he wouldn't die.

"Which one do you choose? Tell your sister quickly."

Huo Xiaolan, always eager for excitement, kept blinking at Song Tianyin, acting like a little devil.

"I... I think I'll give birth..." Song Tianyin rubbed his stomach, his face showing a look of fear of pain.

"You're not a real man anymore?" Huo Xiaolan asked Song Tianyin with a mocking look in her eyes.

"this..."

Song Tianyin's face turned slightly pale. After thinking seriously for a moment, he said in a low voice, "Let's do it after the baby is born!"

Song Tianyin felt that he was just a nobody, and that the important tasks should be left to others.

At least, while it's somewhat unusual for men to give birth, at least they don't have to gamble with their lives or endure the pain of surgery.

Most importantly, he can set an example for other men, showing that there's nothing wrong with men having children.

"Have you thought it through? Will you have a child and not regret it?"

Leon pressed for an answer, and Song Tianyin nodded emphatically, confirming:

"I've made up my mind. I'm going to have the baby. I won't regret it."

After Song Tianyin gave an affirmative answer, he breathed a sigh of relief, as if a heavy burden had been lifted off his shoulders.

Huo Xiaolan, who had been watching the show from the sidelines, stepped forward and patted Song Tianyin on the shoulder after hearing his choice, encouraging him, "Go for it, I believe in you!"

"What do you think I'm so great about? Why don't you come and do it yourself..."

"and many more..."

Just as the two were laughing and joking, Leon, who had been sitting in the rocking chair, suddenly stood up.

Leon quickened his pace and went to the window to look out. He saw a cluster of firelight approaching in the distance, forming a long, serpentine line.

"Something's not right. Judging from the sound of those hooves, there are at least three hundred people. Could they be just passing by?"

Huo Xiaolan had somehow found herself standing next to Leon, her face grave as she watched the approaching flames.

Three hundred men, each with a horse—this is no small fry who could pull off such a spectacle.

Leon's gaze was deep, his eyes shifting, and in his eyes the distance shrank infinitely, revealing scenes in the distance.

Leon said in a deep voice, "Leave here, the other party harbors deep hostility."

"Hospitality? Why? We haven't offended anyone!"

Huo Xiaolan looked puzzled. The cavalry in her line of sight was getting closer and closer, and it looked like they were about to rush into the village.

Without further ado, Leon pulled Huo Xiaolan and Song Tianyin into the cave dug by the Demon Queen.

After entering the tunnel, Leon suddenly grabbed with his right hand, and the tunnel entrance above his head closed instantly, sealing the three of them inside the cave.

"Hurry, surround the village, don't let a single one escape!"

"Go check over there, I saw a figure moving around. Send a few people to investigate."

"Break down the door! Break down the door quickly and bring everyone out of there!"

In no time, the sound of horses' hooves, accompanied by shouts, reached the ears of Leon and his companions.

Leon and the other two remained motionless and quietly inside the cave, completely unaware of what was happening outside.

A moment later, Leon rubbed his fingers together, illuminating the entire cave.

Leon pointed his finger at the ground, and along the center of his finger, ice magic spread rapidly, quickly forming an ice surface the size of a washbasin.

"Sharing the Window to the Soul!"

Leon ran his fingers across the water's surface, using the light from the flames of the Flame-Flame Fruit to gaze at its reflection on the ice.

Reflected on the ice, a large group of people wielding strange weapons were seen driving something away under the light of torches.

Leon and his two companions stared intently and discovered that these people were pulling chains, and behind each chain was a monster that was constantly cursing.

"Master, these people have copper coins on them, they're one of us!"

Huo Xiaolan pointed to the ice and looked at the copper coins worn by some people, and said with great surprise.

"He's a Taoist master, but not one of our own." Leon poured cold water on Huo Xiaolan's hopes, extinguishing her illusions.

Although these people all wore copper coins, it was clear from their appearance that they were a group of hired Taoist priests.

Within the entire Celestial Master system, these hired Celestial Masters who are paid to do things are not actually trying to capture or kill demons; they are only after the bounty offered by their employers and have no independent stance whatsoever.

Moreover, with the help of the ice, Leon also discovered an acquaintance among the Celestial Masters.

This familiar face is none other than Ge Qianhu, the Level 6 Demon King who transformed into human form in the movie Monster Hunt, and the villainous new Demon King in the story.

"The opponent is incredibly strong. They have two five-coin celestial masters, four four-coin celestial masters, and the rest are three-coin and two-coin celestial masters. How much money must they have spent!"

After observing for a while, Huo Xiaolan was intimidated by the opponent's luxurious formation and began to stammer.

In the secular world, a Five-Coin Celestial Master is already a very high rank. Above that are the Celestial Masters who guard each prefecture, just like Song Tianyin's grandfather, who guard the Celestial Master's Hall in their respective areas.

Therefore, assembling such a large team must cost a considerable amount of money every day, which is frightening to even think about.
