A magic merchant infiltrating Fairy Tail

Ultear thought of Lustiros, who was also one of the Seven Kin, and felt that Kira's words made sense.

Chapter 233 Gerald: I have experience with this kind of situation.

Kira then pulled out several more bottles, giving Ultear a series of instructions.

"Besides the ones for your hands, there are also ones for your face, feet, body, and hair... Let me tell you, this is the easiest way to make money. The biggest customers for these products are female mages and rich ladies; the only thing they have in common is that they are all very rich!"

Ultear was speechless. "Don't you want to look at yourself? Is this something a mage should say? You're a total swindler! No wonder you were transformed by 'Nirvana'... wait, did you really become like this because you were transformed by 'Nirvana'?"

"Keep your things safe!" Kira said earnestly. "If your guild leader catches you one day, recommend him to buy my products. The old man might go easy on you. After all, he's over a hundred years old. He needs to take good care of himself and can't rely on goji berries every day."

"What goji berries... huh?!"

Ultear was about to retort when she suddenly sensed something was amiss and looked at Kira in surprise, "You bastard, do you know our guild leader?!"

Even I don't know the background of Chairman Hades!

Kira raised an eyebrow, giving him a "I know a lot" look: "How rare is it?!"

……

Not far away, the members of the 'Six Demons' watched this scene speechlessly, each with a variety of expressions.

Kobra muttered to himself, "For the first time, I realize that having too sharp ears isn't a good thing! I'll try not to listen to your innermost thoughts anymore! It's polluting my ears!"

Lisa laughed and said, "Hehe... I find it quite amusing!"

Angel huffed, "That damn guy! I wonder what kind of magic he's going to teach me? The guild's allied forces are still nearby! I feel completely unsafe without the key!"

An Ye walked to the side and lay down: "I'm going to sleep now. Just wake me up when you leave."

Ho Aite smiled expectantly, "Could he help me find my brother?"

In a shadowy corner not far away, Brian's skull scepter was hidden behind a high wall. The pupils of the skull were pitch black, yet it seemed to be able to see, secretly watching the changes happening here.

Suddenly, the skull scepter spoke in human language: "Oh no! They've all betrayed us! What are we going to do? Should we awaken Lord Zero?"

……

A moment later, Kira ended his money-making scheme with Ultear and turned to walk toward Gerald, who was tied up.

At this moment, Gerald was covered in wounds and bound by special magical chains, unable to move. But he still gritted his teeth and desperately squeezed out the little magic power left in his body, trying to break free of the restraints, stand up and continue fighting, and stop the red-haired boy in front of him from falling into "darkness".

Kira looked at him with a mocking yet sarcastic expression and laughed, "Seriously? You haven't recovered after all this time? You're such a wimp, Gerald! It seems you're only weaker after being redeemed!"

Gerald thought to himself, "This guy... is on a completely different level compared to when we were in the 'Tower of Paradise'..."

To be honest, Kira didn't fight seriously at all during the Tower of Paradise. Even in the final battles, he didn't use much of his skills.

Just as Gerald was about to use his persuasive skills to convince Kira to change his mind, Kira spoke first.

"Geralt, you may not know this, but I've always really hated you!"

I know that perfectly!

Jellal lowered his head in shame: "I know... because I hurt Erza..."

"That's not it!"

Ok?

"Ahem... I mean, it's not just that!"

Gerald paused for a moment, then said, "Well... I also hurt a lot of people, Ah Xiang, Simon, Miliana..."

Kira interrupted him: "Who are these people?"

"..."

Gerald: What else?! I don't recall ever doing anything to offend you!

"Kira, I know what you're going through. This is definitely not a good thing! Listen to me, your comrades are still waiting for you. Don't sink any deeper into the darkness!"

"Shut up, Gerald! What right do you have to say things like 'your comrades are waiting for you'?!"

Kira roared, "Don't lump me in with guys like you who are easily brainwashed, abandon their comrades, and run off to pursue that illusory 'world where Zeref survives'!!"

Gerald was speechless after Kira's retort; he knew he was responsible for the mistakes he had made in the past.

"There's one more thing, I'm very clear about what I'm doing right now! I'm not blinded by darkness, I'm just following my heart! Everyone knows I've always loved money! If you ask why, it's because money is the most wonderful thing in the world!"

Gerald: 'Oh no! This Kira... has completely become a slave to money!'

At that moment, Cobra approached with the Oración Seis, his expression somewhat conflicted: "Kira..."

"Call me boss! Or Boss, that's fine too!"

"..."

"Um... there's something we feel we need to tell you."

Kira turned and glanced at him: "What?"

“You may not know this, but there are more than six members in the Oración Seis. Brian also has another personality, Zero. He is the true leader of the Oración Seis, but he was sealed away by Brian because his personality was too cruel.”

Seeing that Kira didn't intend to interrupt, Cobra continued, "This seal is bound to the six of us using a living connection magic. Once the 'Oración Seis' is defeated, Guild Master Zero will awaken! His strength..."

Cobra suddenly fell silent, for he had overheard Kira's inner monologue: 'Tch! I thought this guy was going to talk about how much treasure they'd accumulated over the years, but it turns out it's this. Don't I know about Zero?'

Hearing this, Kebra asked curiously, "You know about this?"

'Is there anything in this world that I, Kira, don't know? But this guy's expression is interesting, later… wait! Was he eavesdropping on my thoughts just now? I'd better find an opportunity to…'

We can't let him think about it anymore!

Kebra shouted, "What we mean is, if you want us to work for you, you should at least defeat our former chairman first! Prove your strength! If we so easily pledge allegiance to you, we'll never be able to hold our heads high in front of our colleagues!"

"Easily? Didn't you surrender after I beat you up?"

"..."

Can't this person even have a normal conversation?!

Kira twisted his wrists and loosened his muscles, saying, "Fine, fine, since you're so earnestly asking, I'll take pity on you and knock you out to activate the hidden boss!"

This... wait! Knock him out?

"Wait...wait..."

Kebra is now filled with regret, deep regret. Why did he have to go looking for a fight?

However, it was too late!

Boom!Boom!Boom!Boom!Boom!

Kira moved with lightning speed, his fists striking five times on the heads of the men.

"It hurts!" ×5

Feeling the pain in their heads, the group reached up and touched their heads, finding a large, protruding bump.

"Wait a minute! Weren't they going to knock us out?!"

Kira said casually, "Oh, I suddenly realized that it seems we can break the Living Link Magic without knocking you out."

Everyone: "..."

Then why did you hit someone?! How could this person's character be so awful?!

Kira gave a wicked smile: "Don't blame me, it's all 'Nirvana's' fault! It's what corrupted me!"

Everyone present thought in unison: You'd be a fool to believe that!

Kira took two steps forward again, clasped his hands together in front of him, and a mysterious magical power surged from his palms, flowing and finally condensing into a ball of light the size of his palms, inscribed with magical runes.

"eliminate!"

The ball of light transformed into five white magical beams, which struck Kebra, Dark Night, Lisa, Angel, and Hoette. The moment the magical beams touched them, the "Living Connection" spell appeared on their bodies.

Immediately afterwards, the curse vanished completely with a "snap".

The group looked at each other in disbelief: "It's solved already?!"

"By the way...where did Brian just fall?"

Chapter 234 The Method to Bring Kira Back

Just as Kira was subduing the remaining Oración Seis and Ultear, the Allied Forces were on their way to the Tower of Kings.

Erza, having confirmed with Natsu that the other party had remained motionless, looked puzzled: "That's strange! Weren't they going to use 'Nirvana' to cause chaos in the magical world? Why are they just staying put?"

“Isn’t this a good thing?” Natsu continued Erza’s words, “It saves us time from going to find them, and once we get there we can take them all down!”

At this point, Natsu no longer needed Happy to carry him. Just now, Wendy showed her skills by using the healing and balancing magic "Troy" to temporarily relieve Natsu's motion sickness.

Happy hovered above Natsu's head and guessed, "Maybe Killer took care of them all!"

Lucy said worriedly, "But Kira was like that just now..."

Hearing her words, Gray smiled and comforted her, "Don't worry! Knowing Kira's personality, even if he really is transformed by 'Nirvana,' it wouldn't be surprising if he did something double-crossing!"

Lucy, speechless and sweating, said, "That's true..."

Erza said in a deep voice, "I believe Kira isn't the kind of person who would lose himself! Right now, 'Nirvana' is more important... Hmm? Is there some noise ahead?"

The group stopped and took precautions.

"The enemy? Didn't they say they hadn't made a move?"

Natsu sniffed it and said, "Strange, it doesn't smell like a human."

Boom!Boom!

A crisp sound came from afar, and the skull scepter hopped and skipped over.

Harpy was the first to shout, "It's the scepter in the enemy leader's hand!"

Natsu exclaimed in equal surprise, "It's actually alive!"

An ordinary cane cannot be alive, but Claude is clearly no ordinary cane! Its owner is Brian, who was once the director of the Magic Development Bureau, a magic scholar who has mastered hundreds of spells, and has many ways to bring it to life.
