Fairy Tail: My Magic is Yugi Muto's Deck

Chapter 33: Making Stagnant Time Start Moving Again

Night falls, and the sky is filled with stars.

The bright moonlight spilled onto the sea, creating ripples of light.

The waves washed over the beach, bringing a sense of tranquility and comfort after the great battle.

The once bustling tourist island is now scarred and broken, with its ruins fragmented and replaced by deep, cracked pits.

Inside the deep pit lay the Eighteen Divine Drums of Calamity, their life force completely extinguished.

Chase and Mira rightfully won the final victory!

A faint arc of electricity flickered, and Mira's white magic armor gradually dissipated with the sea breeze, returning to its original state.

At this moment, her gaze was gloomy and her expression was solemn, showing no joy that should have appeared after defeating the Sky Drum.

Her fair feet, bruised and chafed, trod the sand as she walked step by step toward Chase.

Chase noticed the girl's unusual behavior and was about to speak when Mira reached out and gently pushed him on the shoulder.

After a series of fierce battles, his body had reached its limit, and even standing up was extremely difficult.

So he was pushed down on the spot without any resistance.

My vision suddenly spun around me, finally settling on the dazzling starry sky.

But soon, her soft, long white hair fell down, and the starry sky was quickly covered by Mira's fair and flawless face.

Mira sat directly on Chase, placing her hands on either side of Chase's head.

Her body was trembling slightly.

"W-what's wrong, Mira?" Chase asked nervously.

Mila's long white hair covered her face, making it impossible to see what kind of expression she had.

"Chase, tell me honestly, were you able to use card magic from the very beginning?" Mira questioned.

Upon hearing this, Chess was taken aback at first, then nodded in agreement.

"I thought that if we did this, Mira, you would be able to face the power you possess and use it to protect your companions."

"Perhaps you genuinely enjoy your current job, but that's not a reason to isolate yourself for so many years. I firmly believe that..."

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Mira's sudden roar.

"No, no, no! Demons and all that, power and all that, none of that matters!!"

pat.

Cold water droplets fell on Chase's face, splashing out sparkling water droplets.

Chase finally saw the beautiful face so close to his eyes—it was already brimming with tears.

"Please, Chess, don't do such dangerous things again..."

Mira sobbed and whispered in an almost pleading tone.

She didn't blame Chase for deceiving her, nor did she care that Chase had forced her to unlock the demon's power.

She was simply worried and fearful.

If I hadn't made it in time, what would have become of Chase, who was being held in the palm of my hand?

The tears that fell on his face made Chase freeze on the spot.

It was only at this point that he belatedly realized a fatal mistake.

As a transmigrator who knew the plot, he firmly believed that in that critical moment, Mira would definitely be able to successfully receive Satan's soul and save herself.

Even if something unexpected happens, there's always the "Resurrection of the Dead" feature to ensure nothing goes wrong.

Therefore, one can be fearless.

But for Mira...

Whether magic can be activated, whether the reception will fail, the life and death of companions, and so on, are all unknown.

—The unknown that brings despair!

He overlooked the pressure and fear she was under...

"I'm sorry, Mira, I was too reckless and made you worry."

Finally hearing the answer she wanted to hear, Mira could no longer contain her panic and fear, and burst into tears in Chase's arms.

After release.

Chase summoned the city-guarding pterosaur and led Mira away from the shattered island to the nearest port city, Harugeon.

Mira remained silent throughout, gazing up at the dazzling starry sky.

Only when the lighthouse's light appeared at the edge of the coastline did she speak softly, her thoughts still tangled:

"Chase, do you think that brightest star might be Lisana?"

The reacquisition of the Satanic spirit inevitably reminded her of her long-deceased sister, Lisanna, and tears welled up in her eyes.

"no."

When Chase traveled through time, Lisana's situation had already occurred.

Therefore, he never actually met Mira and Elfman's younger sister.

Although this was just her own pure fantasy, Mira didn't expect Chase to answer so directly.

After a moment of stunned silence, he buried his head deeply in his chest, looking dejected.

"Stars are used to describe the dead, so maybe Lisana is still alive in some other world?"

Chase rested his head on his hands and simply lay flat on the back of the guardian pterosaur.

He glanced at Mira, whose pupils were wide open, and then changed the subject, "I heard from the president that Lisana turned into a beam of light and disappeared into your arms in the end, right?"

"This doesn't seem like the proper way for a human to die..."

Mira had naturally thought about this question and had spent countless hours with Elfman searching for answers.

However, even after they turned the forest where Lisanna had her accident upside down, they still couldn't find a trace of her.

Even if it's just a cold corpse!

"Chase, what do you mean!?"

Mira became somewhat agitated, moving closer and gripping Chase's arm tightly.

"This is just my guess."

Chase had no intention of revealing the parallel world Edolas to Mira.

It's not that I don't trust Mira, except that such things are too fantastical and very troublesome to explain.

More importantly, once Mira and Elfman learn of Lisana's whereabouts, they will definitely rush to Edolas at all costs, which would be too dangerous.

Perhaps we could find an opportunity to ask Mystogan about the whereabouts of the celestial phenomenon "Anima," which allows one to travel to Edolas?

However, that's not what we should be doing right now.

"But Mira, assuming Lisanna is really still alive, she certainly wouldn't want to see you and Elfman living with guilt forever."

Chase looked up at the starry sky and said in a deep voice, "So, it's time to break free from the pain and let your stagnant time start to turn again."

"Just like today when you used the Soul of Satan to save me."

Mira kept her head down and remained silent.

After a long while, she understood what Chase meant, raised her hand to wipe away the tears glistening in the corners of her eyes, and complained, "Chase, you really like to do unnecessary things."

"Thank you anyway."

The girl's smile was as gentle as ever, but it seemed to have gained a touch more vitality than before.

"Dude, it's a bit too formal of you to say that."

Chase suddenly sat up, staring intently at Mira, and said seriously, "Speaking of which, Mira, you can use the Receiving Magic anytime now, right?"

"Yes, it should be okay, right?"

Looking into those fiery eyes, Mira seemed to have a vague idea of ​​what was going on.

"Then let's have a fight when we get back to the guild!"

Chess clenched his fist excitedly, "Of all the S-rank guild members, you're the only one I haven't fought yet!"

Mirajane the Demon is undoubtedly powerful. If you can get a card from her, it will definitely be a win-win situation!

Even though she was prepared, Mira's lips still twitched slightly when she heard those words come from Chase's mouth.

She punched Chess in the forehead.

"Baka cheshi!"
