"Our silly little brother, if we don't treat you well, who else should we treat well! Keep up the good work and increase your power in this world! You can increase your power quite a bit in this world. We'll be leaving now." After Gaia and Alaya finished speaking, they sent Li Xiaoxi back to the real world before Li Xiaoxi could even say goodbye.
Li Xiaoxi smiled helplessly, then thought to herself, "Goodbye, Sister Gaia and Sister Alaya."
Next, the Mirror Card explained to Li Xiaoxi why they were there. Li Xiaoxi already knew the reason for the appearance of the Xiaoxi Card from Gaia and Alaya, so she interrupted before the Mirror Card could finish explaining.
Are people satisfied with this world?
Xiao hope nodded. This world was full of magic, which made Xiao Xi, an elf made of magic, very comfortable.
"Let's work together to prevent this world from ending!"
"Oh"
With the appearance of Xiao Xi, the previously somewhat lonely place immediately became lively.
After Jing and Li appeared, they had been with Li Xiaoxi for a long time. They didn't know how long it had been since they had gone out with Li Xiaoxi like this.
Meanwhile, the other Little hope cards curiously observed this novel world. Li Xiaoxi learned from Gaia and Alaya that she needed to learn their magic through the Little Xi cards so that she could use their magic without borrowing them. This kind of magic was truly her own. Now, Li Xiaoxi could easily control the magic power in her body, outputting as little as she wanted, reaching a level of unparalleled mastery.
Li Xiaoxi hesitated for a moment before choosing the first Xiaoxi Card to learn. She needed offensive magic, so she temporarily ignored the support-type cards. Li Xiaoxi recalled her duel with Natsu yesterday, where Natsu used Fire Dragon Slayer Magic. She wondered which was more powerful: the fire magic she learned through the Xiaoxi Cards or Natsu's Fire Dragon Slayer Magic. Was it the ancient magic taught by a dragon, allowing her to transform her body into a dragon's to slay it, or the fire magic created by Clow Reed and combined with her own dimensional advancement? Li Xiaoxi was very much looking forward to it.
Chapter 226 Yu Shen Haoyu's First Mission (Part 1)
However, to compare that magic to Natsu's, we need to wait until Li Xiaoxi returns to Fairy Tail. Right now, Li Xiaoxi still has her job to do: eliminate the mountain bandits.
However, having decided to learn the Fire card first from the Little Xi cards, Li Xiaoxi summoned it and explained the situation. Without a word, the Fire card readily agreed to Li Xiaoxi's request, then proudly glanced at the other Little Xi cards, its meaning clear: see if its owner chooses it first. Amidst the envy of the other Little Xi cards, the Fire card slowly dissipated, eventually becoming a part of Li Xiaoxi's body.
After the Fire Card became part of her body, Li Xiaoxi began to study how the Fire Card actually used magic.
According to Li Xiaoxi's understanding, the Fire card is one of the four elemental cards in her deck, and also the one with the highest attack power. Compared to the Water, Earth, and Wind cards, which are also part of the four elements, the Fire card is the most aggressive. Fortunately, with the help of the world's consciousness, the Fire card was directly assigned to him.
Fire magic is common on this continent, but the fire magic controlled by the Fire Card, a fire spirit born from magic, is a bit different. When the Fire Sea was still a Clow Card, due to the limitation of magic, the Fire Card could not exert much power. However, it still required two cards to subdue the Fire Card, which also shows the power of the Fire Card's magic.
After understanding how the Fire Card used magic, Li Xiaoxi slowly began to unleash his first spell, guided by the Fire Card. However, due to the unfathomable depth of magic within Li Xiaoxi's body, he failed to control the output of his magic on his first attempt, directly burning away a small mountain, leaving only a mound a little over a meter high. Moreover, the temperature generated by the magic could be felt thousands of meters away.
The moment Li Xiaoxi released the magic, she immediately sensed something was wrong. She quickly recalled all the Xiaoxis and used a shield to protect them. However, even under the shield's protection, Li Xiaoxi still felt an extremely scorching temperature. But there was nothing there, only some small animals or monsters.
Once the high temperature subsided, Li Xiaoxi removed the shield and stepped outside. The entire space was scorching hot, and even the soil beneath her feet had turned into scorched earth.
Li Xiaoxi's casual fire spell, though not using much magic power, produced a truly terrifying effect. More importantly, her body immediately replenished the magic power she had expended after casting the spell. This means Li Xiaoxi can cast similar spells indefinitely.
Li Xiaoxi was quite satisfied with her first spell, fire magic. She had never imagined her magic would have such an effect. Little did she know, this effect was inevitable. Li Xiaoxi's magical power was already immense, and with her cultivation, she had compressed it further, making one part of her magic power equivalent to ten parts of someone else's.
Li Xiaoxi was thankful that she was experimenting with magic in a deserted place; if there had been other people around, her sins would have been far greater.
Li Xiaoxi then ventured deeper into the mountains and forests, and only when she was alone did she begin her magic training.
It took Li Xiaoxi a month to gradually gain control over the output of her magic and the destructive power of her spells. During this same month, she was able to use fire magic independently without the help of the Fire Token. To be more precise, on the second day after she arrived, she could use magic independently without the Fire Token. However, to control the output of her magic and the effects of her spells, the Fire Token remained within her body, slowly guiding her.
A month later, Li Xiaoxi left. When she arrived, the place was picturesque, with lush mountains and abundant trees. But in the month she spent there, everything was gone. After she left, only a few dozen small, barren hills remained. Who could have known that before these bare hills, this place was once a paradise?
After learning the magic of the Fire Card, it took Li Xiaoxi a month to gradually gain control of the field. This was thanks to her previous training; otherwise, she would have had a long way to go before she could master the power of the magic.
Just as Li Xiaoxi was celebrating that he finally had his first bit of power, he suddenly remembered that he came here to work. A month's time was enough to wipe out several bandits. The people in the guild should be worried about him!
Thinking of this, Li Xiaoxi didn't even have time to go to town to change into clean clothes. For the past month, her clothes had been dirty because she had been studying magic and hadn't had time to wash them.
Li Xiaoxi took out the mission sheet and confirmed the destination again. After finding her location based on the global map provided by Gaia, she used the Flying Card to fly towards the destination.
Li Xiaoxi spent the entire day flying, even finishing her meals in a few bites in mid-air. After arriving above her client's house, she quickly tidied herself up and then landed in a secluded spot.
After comparing the address on the commission form with that on the task sheet and confirming they were the same, Li Xiaoxi politely knocked on the door.
An old man opened the door. "Little friend, who are you looking for?"
"I am a mage from Fairy Tail, and I came here on your request," Li Xiaoxi said, showing a bird-like tattoo on the back of her right hand.
After carefully confirming that the tattoo on Li Xiaoxi's hand was indeed the Fairy Tail symbol, the old man said, "Welcome, guest from Fairy Tail."
Seeing this, Li Xiaoxi couldn't help but think more highly of the old man in front of her.
Just now, Li Xiaoxi clearly saw a hint of doubt in the old man's eyes.
Clearly, the old man was puzzled that the mage who had come to his village to solve its problems was such a small child.
However, even so, the old man didn't say anything, nor did he seem to want to confirm anything with me. He first welcomed me and didn't show the slightest dissatisfaction because I was too young.
Li Xiaoxi didn't know if the other party believed in her ability to complete the mission because she was from Fairy Tail, or if the other party was planning to be polite first and then take action. In any case, the fact that the old man didn't attack Li Xiaoxi immediately made her feel much more at ease.
Chapter 227 Yu Shen Haoyu's First Mission (Part Two)
After confirming the details of the mission with the old man, Li Xiaoxi walked towards the bandit stronghold on the mission sheet, amidst the old man's questioning gaze.
Li Xiaoxi has been out for a month now. What should have been a week-long task has been dragged out by her for a whole month. She doesn't have much time left for idle chatter.
Li Xiaoxi completed the task in the simplest and most direct way: by fighting her way up. If Li Xiaoxi didn't have the Xiaoxi card, she might have been a little troubled, but now that she has Xiaoxi and has also learned magic, the task is very easy.
Although the intelligence indicated the presence of mages among the bandits, Li Xiaoxi believed they were merely rookies who had just learned magic. These rookies, after awakening their own magical powers, gathered a group of people who already committed numerous atrocities, and then became bandits, frequently descending the mountain to kill, burn, and rob. The locals organized several counterattacks, but due to the presence of these rookie mages, each attempt ended in failure. Thus, a request for help appeared on Fairy Tail's request board.
Li Xiaoxi originally had no intention of killing anyone. In her view, all living beings in this world were part of it. As long as they didn't hinder the world's progress and development, Li Xiaoxi wouldn't eliminate them. However, what Li Xiaoxi saw and heard on the mountain where bandits gathered enraged her. Every few steps up the mountain, she could see human corpses, lying there in the sun.
Li Xiaoxi's arrival put the bandits on high alert. Li Xiaoxi had been fighting her way up the mountain from the foot to their hideout. However, because Li Xiaoxi wasn't using magic, the bandits remained extremely confident. After all, no matter how strong an ordinary person was, they couldn't be stronger than a mage; this rule had been proven countless times and had essentially become a fundamental principle.
However, the bandits surrounded Li Xiaoxi but made no further move. As time passed, the number of bandits increased, but no one dared to make the first move. After all, Li Xiaoxi's fighting ability was undeniable; don't underestimate her just because she was an eleven or twelve-year-old child. Both sides waited. The bandits were guarding their leader, and Li Xiaoxi was waiting for the bandits to gather together so they could wipe them out in one fell swoop; otherwise, she would have to put in more effort.
"The boss is here!" someone shouted. The bandits seemed to have foreseen Li Xiaoxi's impending death, and they all looked at Li Xiaoxi with the eyes of someone looking at a dying man.
"Are they here?" Li Xiaoxi was relieved to find that her long wait hadn't been in vain; the small space was already packed with people.
"This is the child. You're not kidding, are you?" Several people with magical auras appeared in front of Li Xiaoxi. Upon seeing that Li Xiaoxi was just a child, they began to doubt whether his subordinates were lying to him.
"That's right, boss, it's this kid. He fought his way up the mountain."
"Boss, avenge the brothers!"
"Kill him"
"Kill him"
"I don't know how a kid like you managed to fight your way up from the bottom of the mountain, but you've messed with the wrong people, so you're going to die."
After the so-called leader finished speaking, a magic circle appeared in his hand, and he poured his magical power into it. The other magic users watched the show, believing that as long as their leader made a move, the child opposite them would be doomed, so they didn't join the attack.
"Is this all of you?" Li Xiaoxi ignored the bandit leader who was channeling magic into the magic circle and asked the people surrounding her.
“That’s right, this is everyone here. You’re just a little kid, and so many of us have come to see you off. You should feel honored.”
Now that everyone is here, I only have one thing to say to you.
"Kid, it's too late to say your last words now, die!" The leader threw a spell, now imbued with considerable magic power, at Li Xiaoxi.
A small explosion soon occurred on the ground where Li Xiaoxi was standing. Before the bandits could even confirm whether their leader's magic had hit anyone, they cheered. But slowly they sensed something was wrong; the temperature suddenly rose.
"what is that?"
As someone shouted, the bandits all looked up at the sky, where a huge red magic circle appeared directly above them. Even more terrifying was that the magic circle emitted an extremely high temperature.
"That child didn't die, no, that child is a mage!" Finally, someone discovered Li Xiaoxi's true identity, but it was too late.
"Please remember, it was the mages of Fairy Tail who destroyed you. And if you have a next life, please don't be human, because you are not suited to be human."
"Fairy Tail," the bandit leader who attacked Li Xiaoxi said through gritted teeth, enunciating each word clearly.
As soon as Li Xiaoxi finished speaking, a spell that had been brewing for almost a minute flew rapidly towards her target, the entire mountain below. In no time, the bandit mountain became a sea of fire. The bandits didn't even have time to despair before Li Xiaoxi's magic turned them into ashes and vanished into the air. To prevent her magic from harming others, Li Xiaoxi used her shield to seal off the mountain before the spell landed.
Li Xiaoxi's magic lasted for about ten minutes. After the mountain shrank to a small hill a few meters high, Li Xiaoxi gently waved her hand, and the sea of fire disappeared as if it had never existed. If it weren't for that small hill as proof, who would know that an earth-shattering battle had broken out here, even though it was just Li Xiaoxi's one-sided crushing victory?
Looking at the small hill, Li Xiaoxi felt nothing. She felt neither fear of killing it, nor uncertainty, nor any discomfort. For Li Xiaoxi, eliminating these pests of the world was a good thing. Although these people wouldn't have a significant impact on the world, its absence would make it a better place.
After handing over the task to the client, Li Xiaoxi took her first job's payment and headed back.
As the old man watched Li Xiaoxi's departing figure, he remarked with admiration, "Fairy Tail, even this child is this strong? No wonder they're the number one guild."
Chapter 228 Three Newcomers!
After receiving her first paycheck, Li Xiaoxi rushed to Magnolia Town.
When Li Xiaoxi returned to Fairy Tail, she found that the guild was empty, not even Nob, who was looking for a suitable job on the quest board.
There's only one explanation for this: someone is engaged in a duel. Only then would it make sense that no one in the guild is present.
Speaking of duels, in Li Xiaoxi's memory, there's only one place: the place where Li Xiaoxi dueled with Natsu. Behind Fairy Tail, there's an open space where all the duels in the guild take place.
When Li Xiaoxi arrived at that place, everyone from Fairy Tail was there. Makarov, on the other hand, sat on a higher spot, watching the two being watched by the guild members.
"President, I'm back." Li Xiaoxi didn't see who was dueling and went straight to Makarov.
"Xiao hope, you're back. How was work?" Makarov saw that Li Xiao Xi was perfectly fine and unharmed. However, Makarov immediately noticed the changes in Li Xiao Xi since she left Fairy Tail and returned. "Xiao Xi, you know magic now?"
"Yes, by the way, the work is perfectly completed." Li Xiaoxi couldn't help but admire Makarov for recognizing her magical abilities at a glance.
"By the way, what do you think of that girl who dueled Erza?"
Following Makarov's words, Li Xiaoxi shifted her gaze to the center of everyone's attention in the guild.
There, Erza stood facing off against a girl about Li Xiaoxi's age, wielding a magic sword. Besides her, there were two other unfamiliar faces. These three, who seemed like sisters, all possessed striking white hair.
The girl who dueled Erza was a girl with long white hair tied in a ponytail, wearing revealing clothes that resembled a swimsuit, with an extremely sour face and fierce eyes. She was someone you could easily recognize in a crowd.
Among the two new faces standing in the crowd was a boy dressed in a formal suit and shorts like a student. He was quite robust for his age, with somewhat dark skin, but a weak expression on his face, which contrasted sharply with the girl with the ponytail, making people wonder if they had mistaken him for someone else.
Standing to the boy's right was the shortest and youngest girl, with a bob haircut and wearing a cute dress.
At this moment, the little girl with bobbed hair was saying something to the girl with ponytail with a worried expression, but the girl with ponytail ignored her.
The burly young man seemed to be weakly trying to advise the girl with the ponytail, which earned him a fierce glare from her. He shrank back and spinelessly hid to the side, his face looking like he was about to cry, which made people laugh.
The unusual combination of these three people compelled Li Xiaoxi to turn her attention to them and observe them with great interest.
Just as Li Xiaoxi was observing the three white-haired boys and girls, the girl with the ponytail seemed to notice Li Xiaoxi's gaze, turned her head, and met Li Xiaoxi's eyes.
Li Xiaoxi could clearly see the obvious displeasure on the other person's face. It was clear that the girl did not like Li Xiaoxi's gaze. Just as she was about to glare at Li Xiaoxi, Li Xiaoxi's smile dissolved the anger, making the girl with the ponytail unable to stay angry.
The girl with the ponytail's actions also drew the attention of Erza and the other guild members to Li Xiaoxi.
Erza, whose face was usually serious, revealed a barely perceptible smile upon seeing Li Xiaoxi.
"Xiao hope, when did you get back? Come and have a duel! I'm completely different now than I was a month ago!" Natsu said energetically, his mouth blazing with fire, rubbing his hands together as he faced Li Xiao Xi.
"Hedgehog, Xiaoxi just returned to the guild. Even if you want to duel with her, you should wait until she rests first. Besides, this is Erza's duel," Gray retorted mercilessly.
Natsu initially wanted to object, but for some reason, he eventually gave up on the idea of having a duel with Li Xiaoxi.
Gray's words drew the attention of the rest of the guild back to Erza's duel with the newcomer.
However, the little girl with the bob haircut continued to look at Li Xiaoxi curiously. Upon noticing her, Li Xiaoxi greeted her kindly. The little girl immediately blushed with embarrassment upon seeing Li Xiaoxi's greeting and dared not look at her again.
Finally, the battle between Erza and the ponytail girl began. Initially, neither used magic; it was simply a matter of brawling. They fought evenly, neither gaining the upper hand. Li Xiaoxi knew Erza's strength, but she hadn't expected this white-ponytail girl to be able to fight Erza to such an extent. This made Li Xiaoxi look at the ponytail girl in a new light, and she also sensed something unusual about her.
"President, that girl..."
"You noticed it too?" Makarov was surprised that Li Xiaoxi's senses were so sharp that she noticed something was wrong so quickly.
Li Xiaoxi nodded.
"Let's not talk about that now, let's observe first and then discuss it."
The duel has been going on for ten minutes now, and the battle between Erza and the ponytail girl has gradually entered the stage of testing their magic power.
"I didn't expect you to be so capable! Iron Girl," the ponytail girl said, slightly annoyed.
“I’ll return that to you verbatim, you belly-navel woman,” Erza retorted defiantly.
"I didn't want to use magic, but I can't care about that now in order to defeat you." After the girl with the ponytail finished speaking, she exuded an extremely strong dark power, which gave Li Xiaoxi the feeling of a demon's power. Yes, it was a demon's power.
"Receive the magic, Satan's soul!" After saying this, the girl with the ponytail immediately changed her body, transforming into a demon filled with dark energy.
However, whether it was Li Xiaoxi's imagination or not, Li Xiaoxi noticed that the girl with the ponytail seemed to be unable to control the Satanic spirit within her body, and her eyes were slowly losing their luster.
"The duel ends here for now." Makarov immediately noticed something was wrong with the girl with the ponytail and stopped the duel.
But the light in the ponytail girl's eyes had completely disappeared, and a voice different from the ponytail girl's came out of her mouth: "I have finally seen the light of day again. I swear to destroy the world and plunge the whole world into darkness."
Chapter 229 Saving the Delinquent Girl Mirajane
"Something's wrong! That little girl Xiaoxi's magic has gone out of control! Everyone, let's get out of here!" Makarov immediately said to the rest of the guild when he saw the girl with the ponytail in this state.
Following Makarov's instructions, the guild members quickly left, leaving only Erza, Natsu, Gray, Li Xiaoxi, and the other two members of the trio.
"Brother Elfman, something bad has happened! Sister Mira has lost control again!" The little girl with the bob haircut looked at her older sister and said with great concern.
