The most important reason why the God of Darkness couldn't bear to harm this kid is that he is too talented. From the first moment he felt this kid's presence, the god of darkness couldn't help but cry out in delight.
Even in his days, he had never seen such a genius who could even be considered a monster. Yes, even to the God of Darkness, who had slain both God and Demon Akira, he is like a monster.
And after this small confrontation, the god of darkness was sure of his guess. Look at how that kid is now looking at him. His gaze is like a cornered beast that would kill its enemy without any care for the power difference.
If this kid were born in the era where gods walked with humans, the God of Darkness would definitely teach this brat what the difference is between heaven and earth. But unfortunately, he is now just a remnant soul.
So, facing this kid, who he should be able to kill with just his pinky finger in Hayday, the god of darkness could only sigh heavily, retract his aura, and take a step down. And besides, at the end of the day, he is the one who has to ask this kid for a favor, so it is not very wise to provoke this kid too much.
And besides, it would never be too late to teach this kid some manners later.
If Akira had the calmness to see what this god of darkness was thinking, he would definitely curse at him for being shameless. Who was the one who first tried to mind-control him into becoming his puppet? And who was the one who tried to scare a 9-year-old kid with that huge aura?
Fortunately, Akira was too agitated to hear this, or else he would have fought this guy regardless of the consequences.
….
While Akira was facing the biggest threat in his whole life in Magnolia town, the Fairy Tail guild, Sera, who was wiping away a beer glass, suddenly felt her heart tighten, and her transformation magic was forcibly lifted. This led to the beer glass slipping away from her hand and falling down to the floor, breaking into tiny pieces.
But Sera was in no mind to look at the mess she made. Because right now she was already unconscious.
" SERA!!! "
Hearing the commotion, Makarov and others who were relaxing over shouted as they all rushed forward. The one who arrived first was Cornelia, who was the nearest to her. She quickly brought Sera closer and examined her.
"Sera, talk to us. Quick, someone go call Porlyusica over ", Makarov shouted as he also knelt down to examine Sera.
Hearing Makarov's command, a group of guild members quickly ran out of the guild towards the eastern forest where Porlyusica's house is.
Soon Porlyusica came to the guild and, without talking any nonsense, began to diagnose Sera. After that, she created some medicines and fed them to Sera.
Soon, Sera began to gradually regain consciousness. Everyone who saw this breathed a sigh of relief. But their relief didn't last long because as soon as Sera opened her eyes, she immediately stood and shouted,
"Akira, where is Akira? "
"Sera, calm down. Akira should be heading back to town after completing the mission. " Makarov said as he tried to calm the agitated Sera.
Hearing this, Sera panicked even more, and she shouted, " No, Master Akira, Akira is in danger. "
Hearing her words, everyone's eyes widened. What, that brat Akira was in danger again? But shouldn't he be on a mission near Magnolia?
Everyone was shocked and skeptical about Sera's sudden revelation. But nevertheless, they were curious about why Sera was so sure of this. Especially Makarov, as he was the one who threw that quest on Akira. If something were to happen, then this old man would regret it for the rest of his life.
"Tell me, Sera, why do you think Akira is now in danger? Although he has a record of getting into trouble, there shouldn't be any danger with his strength, " Makarov asked after trying to calm his emotions.
Hearing his words, Sera's unease didn't subside as she said, " No, I definitely felt it; Akira is definitely in a very dangerous situation right now."
As a creature who was created with Irene's enchantment magic to protect her son, Akira and Sera have a connection that allows Sera to feel her master's state of mind. And just now, with that connection, she felt Akira's life was in danger. This is why she was panicking so much.
Hearing her explanation, everyone had various expressions. Those who were hearing about Sera's relationship with Akira were filled with astonishment, while those who already knew this story had a serious expression.
Makarov, after thinking for a while, said, " Everyone, you all stay here. Sera and I will go and see what's going on with Akira."
Hearing Makarov's orders, everyone was surprised. Macao and Wakaba wanted to interject that they, too, can come and give a helping hand, but Makarov rebuked them by saying, " You fools, this situation is definitely not like that time with Deliora. I bet Akira may be trapped inside some ruin. So right now, apart from Sera and me, none of you are suitable for this kind of rescue mission. "
After speaking, Makarov sighed in his heart. He really needs to make these guys read some books. After all, exploring a ruin is very dangerous, as it can be filled with various traps. And some ruins require the person to understand the carvings to enter or exit them.
If these fools were ever trapped in a ruin, at least they should be able to survive inside until help arrives.
In this regard, Makarov has to say Akira is a real all-rounder. That kid is what every guild master wanted. That kid has knowledge of all the other areas. And what's more, his combat capabilities are also very outstanding.
Unfortunately, that kid is too much of a jinx and a trouble magnet. Well, you shouldn't be too greedy and be satisfied with what you have.
...
"Achoo."
Akira's sudden sneeze broke the tense atmosphere.
"Cough, sorry about that, let's continue …" Akira coughed and spoke as he sat on the throne he had made.
The god of darkness, who was sitting opposite, really wanted to beat this rude kid. Couldn't this kid be more respectful to his elders? For a moment, the god of darkness even wondered whether his decision was correct.
'Sigh, whatever, let's just get this over with,' he thought as he looked at Akira and spoke.
"As I was saying, during my era, when gods walked alongside mankind. And for a period of time, everything was beautiful. The gods took care of us humans as their own children and taught them everything, including magic.
But everything changed when the first demon was born. Although none of us knew how this demon was born, we all knew that the gods, who were very friendly towards us, changed their stance drastically after his birth.
Many gods began to mercilessly massacre humans indiscriminately, and soon, the war between the gods began. During this war, many gods fell, and new demon gods were born.
It was during the war when it was at its most heated time, that the occupation of God slayer was born. And the first god slayer was me, who took on the power of the Goddess of Light and slew the Demoness of Desire. "The god of darkness's words were like a bolt of thunder that stunned Akira into silence.
"Wait, are you saying you are the first god slayer that created the God Slayer magic? " Akira asked in shock, unable to believe it for a moment.
"Yes, but me creating the God slayer magic would be a stretch. I only became the first God slayer and not the person who created the God slayer magic. But you aren't wrong in that conclusion because it is my blessing that allowed God Slayer magic to be born. " The god of darkness spoke, making Akira even more confused. But before Akira could even ask any more questions, the God of darkness spoke again. ,
"Enough story-telling now; listen to me, young lad, I want to make a deal with you. If you agree to this deal, I will give you all my knowledge and inheritance. "
"So what sort of deal are you speaking about? " Akira asked, not asking why he would even consider doing such a thing. Since it's obvious that this guy is nearing his limit. This may be his last time to pass down his inheritance or even his dying mission.
