Deep in the forest.
Mirajane, carrying Elfman and holding Lisanna, sprinted. A path appeared at the end of the road, and a hint of joy flashed across her face as her steps quickened.
Suddenly.
A sacred golden light.
Gar, transformed into an Angel of Judgment, descended from the sky, holding a holy sword radiating golden light. He blocked Mirajane's path, his pale golden eyes emitting a majestic glow as he looked at Mirajane, who was frozen in place.
Looking at the figure descending from the sky, Mirajane's expression was stunned:
"An Angel?"
A wave of panic surged in her heart, and her body seemed to lose all strength.
How could there be an Angel?
So... am I really a demon?
No matter how strong-willed Mirajane had been before, no matter how much she encouraged and comforted herself.
But seeing the legendary Angel appear before her, holding a light sword, looking as if he was about to judge her, she could no longer deceive herself.
Mirajane lost all strength and slumped to the ground.
Thud, thud.
Elfman and Lisanna also fell to the ground.
Lisanna and Elfman got up, bewildered, rubbing their heads:
"Mira?"
Looking up, Lisanna and Elfman froze:
"An... an Angel!"
The two little ones were stunned. How could an Angel descend?
Although they had heard stories since childhood where Angels would descend to eliminate demons wherever there were demons, Mira hadn't done anything bad, so why would an Angel descend to eliminate her?
Without time to think, Lisanna quickly shielded Mirajane:
"Mira! Hurry and go!"
"I'll stop him!"
Elfman showed a hint of timidity, then also stood in front of Mirajane:
"That's right!"
"Mira! Run!"
Mirajane, however, smiled bitterly, shaking her head, tears shimmering in her eyes:
"It's... no longer necessary."
"Perhaps dying like this is for the best."
The appearance of the Angel completely shattered Mirajane's psychological defense.
In the original story, even after staying in the Fairy Tail Guild for a long time, Mirajane still couldn't accept her demon arm. Even though Makarov said it was magic, Mirajane didn't want to possess such power.
And now, having just been driven out of the village by the villagers, she encountered an Angel in the blink of an eye.
A sense of relief flashed through Mirajane's heart. She propped herself up with her arms and looked at the Angel that Gar had transformed into:
"Do it."
Lisanna and Elfman anxiously protected Mirajane, looking at Gar with a hint of hatred.
Gar's eyes showed helplessness. This wasn't what he had expected. Shouldn't she be fighting back? Why was she just waiting for death? On a tall tree nearby.
Gengar, holding a magic camera, also scratched his head, looking at the three siblings below. This wasn't like the story either. Shouldn't she transform into a demon and fight the Angel?
However, the play had to continue. Gar slowly descended, his wings fluttering, and white feathers drifted down:
"You're quite good at bewitching people's hearts."
"Demon."
"Release those two children."
Lisanna looked at Gar, her arms spread out, blocking Mirajane, and shouted:
"She didn't bewitch anyone!"
"Mira is not a demon!"
"She saved everyone in the village!"
"Do even Angels not distinguish between good and bad?!"
Elfman nodded in agreement.
Gar snorted coldly, emitting a magical pressure. The three little ones felt an endless pressure approaching.
Thud.
Lisanna slumped to the ground, followed by Elfman.
Mirajane struggled to look up at Gar:
"You,"
"They are just children."
"Stop it!"
"I'll let you kill me!"
Gar's lips curled into a wicked smile:
"Oh?"
"What if I want to kill them all?"
As his words fell.
The three little ones' eyes widened instantly. Mirajane's face was filled with disbelief, and she spoke with difficulty under the magical pressure:
"Aren't you an Angel?!"
"How could an Angel..."
Gar shrugged indifferently, lifted his foot, and slowly walked forward. He casually twirled the light sword in his hand and said with feigned wickedness:
"Angels come in many types."
"I am a Retribution Angel, only responsible for eliminating demons."
"Anyway, no one here will see."
"If I accidentally kill two children while eliminating a demon, God will forgive me."
"After all, it's all for the sake of eliminating demons."
"If they want to resent someone, they should resent the demon."
Listening to Gar's words, the three little ones looked at Gar with fear.
Lisanna felt her inner world collapse.
How could there be such an Angel?!
Mira was possessed by a demon to save the village chief, and this Angel casually wanted to kill children.
Lisanna wanted to get up and refute, but she was pressed down by the pressure and couldn't move.
Watching Gar gradually approach and fix his gaze on Elfman and Lisanna, Mirajane's face showed anxious anger:
"Stop right there!"
"Don't you dare hurt them!!!"
Gar paused, looking at the angry Mirajane. His gaze swept over Elfman and Lisanna, then he suddenly spoke with interest:
"Speaking of which."
"Are you three siblings?"
"You all have the same hair color."
"No wonder you protect this demon so much."
"However."
"This is as far as it goes."
"Under my pressure, you can't even move."
"What can you stop?"
Gar walked in front of Lisanna and looked at Mirajane with feigned mockery:
"Now I'm going to kill her."
"How do you plan to Curse me?"
"With the demon residing in your body? Or with this cowardly little brat next to you?"
Gar's holy sword swayed in front of Elfman's eyes, scaring Elfman into quickly closing his eyes, showing fear. Then he heard Gar's words, gritted his teeth with resentment, and tried several times to gather courage to resist.
But looking at the gleaming holy sword, his body went limp.
Gar raised an eyebrow. The stimulation wasn't enough yet. Although they were children, he couldn't be too cruel.
But his stimulation was fake, and while he didn't know if future accidents could still happen, once they did, they would be real.
If Elfman only awakened under those circumstances, it would be too late.
Gar slowly moved the holy sword from in front of Elfman's eyes to above Lisanna's head, secretly withdrawing some of the magical pressure on Elfman, then looked at Mirajane and mocked:
"Alright, it's time to send you on your way."
"It will be quick."
As he spoke, the holy sword in his hand slowly descended.
Mirajane was furious, unable to control her emotions:
"Stop it!!!"
Dark magic power surged from her body, and she gradually transformed into a demon.
Mirajane wanted to act, but she was firmly suppressed by the magical pressure, unable to move. Even transformed into a demon, she was still too young. Under Gar's deliberate suppression, she could only watch helplessly as the holy sword descended.
Until the holy sword was three centimeters above Lisanna's head.
"Lisanna!!!"
