"Uh-huh!"

“That’s right. Not just these two, there are so many more clues. And one day, I will connect all the clues together. Then, I will open the path for you to bring Lisanna back!”

“Empty…” Mira looked up at the empty space, unable to utter a word, only letting her tears flow uncontrollably.

"So, Happy... Natsu... Elfman... and Mira. When I open that passage and intend to bring Lisanna back, I hope that the four of you will become my strength!"

Kong slowly looked around at the four of them, as if trying to ignite hope in their hearts, meeting their gazes one by one.

Chapter 082 Clearing Up

"Yes! Happy... Happy will try her best!" Happy replied, still wiping away her tears.

"Ku, are you telling the truth? Lisanna isn't dead, she's just...missing?" Natsu was more shocked than Ku had imagined. But it wasn't entirely his fault. Perhaps, in this matter, he was the one who felt the most guilty.

"Yes. Although not 100%..."

"Alright! Leave everything to me then, Kong! I will definitely find Lisanna!"

Natsu knew from Sora's eyes that Sora wasn't lying to him. So, he immediately stood up, tears streaming down his face, and pulled himself together.

Compared to what he hears, Natsu is more sensitive to the voice of his heart. Perhaps it's because everyone understands this characteristic of Natsu that they like him so much.

"Brother Kong, I will strive to become stronger, to become a real man like you!" Elfman also rallied. But his sparkling eyes made Kong feel a little uncomfortable.

Speaking of which, although Elfman is a year younger than Sora, he's already almost the tallest guy in the guild! What's with talking about becoming a "man" like Sora? Does a person's body grow backwards...? Sora couldn't stand it a little and quickly avoided Elfman's adoring gaze.

"Kong... thank you!" Mira had a thousand words to say, but in the end, they all boiled down to this one sentence.

"Mira... I will stay by your side forever."

Kong didn't know why, but he had so much to say, and in the end, he inexplicably said this sentence.

Upon hearing those words, Mira immediately threw her head back and burst into tears. She looked like a little child, leaving Kong momentarily at a loss for what to do.

For some reason, Elsa seemed to understand Mira's feelings, and she gave her a warm smile: "Kong, if there's anything I can do to help with bringing Lisanna back, just ask me!"

"That's right, Kong! Don't exclude me again."

Gray looked somewhat frustrated. They were all rising stars of the younger generation, so why was he always left out of the list of participants? How long was he going to remain an "observer"? His skills had improved by leaps and bounds, and he had consistently completed his commissions flawlessly.

"If we're looking for someone or clues, I'm definitely the most reliable person in this guild!" Kana's boastful statement was met with no dissent from anyone in the guild. Because she was absolutely right.

"If you want to use my connections, Kong, I wouldn't mind!" Loki's somewhat flippant words left much to the imagination. His connections were probably made up of young women.

“If you need any research data, I can help!” Levy nodded excitedly, seemingly happy that everyone could work together on something.

"Kong..." Xun'er only called out this once, and Kong completely understood her meaning. He nodded to Xun'er.

"I understand! When the time comes, I will not hesitate to order everyone around!"

"Oh!!"

Despite Kong Mingming's blunt remarks, everyone seemed excited and responded happily.

In that instant, Sora truly felt that coming to this world and joining "Fairy Tail" was wonderful!

In that case, he can only work harder to make the guild better and stronger!

“I’ll handle dealing with the giant spider and finding Lisanna. But before that, everyone has other things to do! ...If Lisanna, who’s far away, knew we’ve been slacking off like this, she’d be furious right now.” Sora said this after everyone quieted down a bit.

The reason for saying this is that, through magical perception, Sora already knows what is happening outside.

Yes, it's been just half an hour since the earthquake struck Magnolia. Many people trapped under the rubble are still waiting for rescue.

"Fairy Tail" is the official name of Magnolia City, an ironclad rule established since the very beginning. And there are many ordinary people in this city who care deeply about him. Under these circumstances, he can't simply do nothing.

"Sora, leave the rest to me, the chairman. You go and deal with the giant spider... Afterwards, meet up with me immediately. Perhaps we'll need your abilities sometime."

Makarov and Elsa exchanged a glance, immediately understanding the meaning behind Kong's words. He transformed back into the dignified and reliable chairman, and spoke to Kong as such.

"I understand... I'll be back as soon as possible." Sora nodded, took one last look at Mira and Xun'er, and then used teleportation to leave.

His destination was naturally the eastern forest. There, Laxus and his "Thunder Gods," along with Lucia, who used "Wood Shaping Magic," were firmly holding the giant spider in place.

The "Spell Barrier" magic of Captain Felid of the "Thunder Gods" team, combined with Lucky's "Wooden Cage" and Bigus's "Puppet Possession", indeed makes them the strongest sealing team!

This is a seal that extends from the soul to the body without any gaps, reaching the absolute limit!

As for Laxus, he is here to use "Rampage Volt" to paralyze the giant spider that tries to break free of its seal every so often, as it regains its strength.

Judging from Laxus's impatient expression, the giant spider was regaining its strength and struggling more frequently. This also explains why the people who set up this intricate seal all looked somewhat pale.

They have already used up a lot of magic!

In terms of defense, resistance, stamina, and strength, the giant earth-attribute spider is undoubtedly incredibly powerful, which is why this monster has consistently caused losses to the guild over the years. This creature is too powerful!

"Hey! Who are you! Don't come near here!" Abba Green was free, but in a bad mood.

It wasn't just because the monster before her could also use petrification magic, and at a level superior to hers. More importantly, her "Petrifying Eye" was ineffective against it. Therefore, she was utterly useless in this situation.

Doesn't this make her look useless? Especially in front of Laxus, whom she admires most. Of course she's in a bad mood!

But Kong ignored her and walked straight towards the giant spider. He looked up, scrutinizing the giant spider intently, as if trying to memorize its appearance completely. The giant spider, too, sensed a very familiar, terrifying aura. So…

"Squeak!" It began to stir restlessly and struggle desperately!

This change also made Abba Grin, who was originally planning to teach Kong a lesson, stop. She watched the giant spider's transformation with great tension. However, Laxus's reaction quickly diverted her attention again.

It was the first time she had ever seen Laxus treat others that way.

"You've come... So that's how it is. The old man's solution was you?... In the end, besides relying on others, he couldn't do anything else!!" Laxus was in a terrible mood. It had nothing to do with the troublesome giant spider before him. Because, right at his doorstep, he had lost his family!

Chapter 083 "Thor's Crew"

Lisanna's "loss" was also a huge blow to Laxus. The anger in his heart was like a volcano about to erupt, nearing its limit.

The three members of the "Thor's Creed" stared in astonishment at Laxus and the man they were meeting for the first time today, whose relationship with Laxus seemed unusual.

"All in black... black hair and black eyes... 'The Black Knight'... Is it him?"

Although Felid only recently joined Fairy Tail, he has already collected a lot of information about the guild.

Among these documents, three individuals particularly caught Fred's attention. Each of them was shrouded in mystery and posed a potential obstacle to Laxus!

"The guild's strongest defense," "an invincible man," "Dark Star"—these are all words used to describe the man before him. Now, he stands before Philid.

Next, Freed would open his eyes wide and carefully observe every move this man made. All of this was so that he could defeat this man for Laxus in the future!

"I will find Lisanna."

In response to Laxus's words, Sora simply paused and replied with this sentence.

"Find...find her! Do you even know anything about Lisanna's condition?!"

Laxus was furious. He didn't know why. Perhaps it was because the person in front of him had taken it upon himself to play "house," and then failed to protect his "family."

"You probably haven't seen her body. If that's the case, then where does your confidence in believing she's dead come from?" Kong asked Laxus in return.

"This……"

For some reason, Laxus felt that the sky today was very different from usual. His words struck a chord with the question that had been lingering in Laxus's mind. Therefore, he couldn't answer for a moment.

Sora's arrogant attitude greatly displeased Abba Green. Just as she was about to reprimand Sora, she was interrupted by another woman present.

"Um...you two, please stop having that cool conversation over there, oblivious to everyone else. The giant spider over here is reacting really strongly, and I can't hold on much longer!" Leqi said, sounding like she was about to cry.

Of the mages here, she was the weakest. If the giant spider broke free, she would definitely be the first victim. Given the current situation, she was naturally very anxious.

Seeing Leqi's pale face, Kong knew she had reached her limit. Without further delay, he stepped directly into Philid's magical barrier and appeared before the giant spider.

“Wait…” Abba Green wanted to remind Kong, but it was too late.

"Bah!"

Sora was struck by the golden spider silk, which wrapped around him layer by layer until it finally formed a giant golden cocoon around him!

That's right, it's even bigger than the cocoon that wrapped Natsu and Happy before. The giant spider seems to see Sora as a greater threat, so it's put a lot of effort into it.

"Alas!... This is what happens when you think too highly of yourself!"

Abba Grin looked annoyed. But with her abilities, she had no way to help. She looked at Biggleslow beside her; if it were Biggleslow, rescuing Kong would be effortless. He could simply use his puppet to fly over and cut open the cocoon.

But Biguslow didn't react to Abbagrim's gaze. He was concentrating all his power, trying to possess the giant spider in front of him... This was of course impossible to succeed, but it could interfere with the giant spider's control over his body and greatly suppress the giant spider.

Left with no other option, Abram could only look to Filde and Laxus. But neither of them seemed to have any intention of making a move.

Abba Greene grew anxious. Just as she was about to step in to help, a somewhat familiar voice appeared again.

"The spider silk is quite good; it might be a rare and valuable material. So, before eliminating you, let me collect as much as possible."

Sora appeared unharmed beside the golden cocoon, severing the connection between the giant spider and the cocoon with a single strike of his katana. He then stored the golden cocoon in his spatial ring.

The katana in his hand was obtained from Ya'er.

The town of Hot Springs has an exceptionally skilled katana craftsman. As the "Hero of Hot Springs," obtaining this katana seems to be mandatory. Yaru says it's a symbol of being the "Guardian of Hot Springs," and Sora must always carry it with her.

Of course, to avoid making it just for decoration, Ya'er chose the simplest sword techniques for Sora and gave him a little guidance. Although Sora was inept at using weapons, he had practiced a bit during his six-month trip to eastern Ishgar.

After all, in that chaotic place, the quality of a sword seemed to determine the strength of a "magic warrior" (the local term for a mage) in the eyes of others. Even if he didn't like it, Sora had to carry this katana with him at all times to avoid being constantly harassed by bandits and thugs.

Through conflicts and battles with various sword masters, Sora passively learned the kung fu techniques. Over time, Sora seemed to have grasped some of the secrets of swordsmanship.

When dealing with ordinary magical beasts and monsters, I actually use the katana more often. This is because it's more convenient and saves more mana.

After all, that's a legendary sword capable of cutting through iron like mud. A little "enchantment magic" and it becomes indestructible!

After experiencing the exhilarating feeling of cutting through the combined effects of these two things, Sora immediately understood why Ya'er was so confident in her abilities before meeting Sora.

Okay, we've gone off on a tangent.

Seeing that its silk had failed to trap Kong, the giant spider did not give up and spit out silk again.

Although Sora really wanted to complain that this spider used its mouth to spit out silk threads (normal spider monsters shoot out silk threads from their abdomen or rear end), since this was the last chance to collect materials before eliminating the opponent, Sora didn't intend to give up this opportunity.

Spider silk, with its excellent magic resistance, is a very precious clothing material. At least, female mages don't have to worry about their clothes "bursting" when wearing clothes made of this material.

Kong used the "Great Sky Sphere" to protect himself again. After the "Great Sky Sphere" was wrapped into a golden cocoon again, he "moved" out again, slashed his sword to sever the connection, and then put the golden cocoon and the "Great Sky Sphere" into his spatial ring.

The empty space ring has been replaced with one of the 1000 cubic meter standard sizes, like Elsa's. There's no need to worry about not being able to fit these giant golden cocoons.

……

After Kong put the third golden cocoon into the spatial ring, the giant spider finally ran out of silk and stopped doing so.

Despite its struggles, the giant spider's eight legs were locked to the ground by "Wooden Shaping Magic," and its eight eyes were covered by a huge wooden mask. Only its mouth, because its teeth were too sharp, could not be sealed with wood. There was no other way to stop Sora from getting closer!

Although the magic that caused the "earthquake" was very powerful, its current magical energy is insufficient to cast it again. Under these circumstances, the giant spider is truly helpless.
