Chapter 248

【If they completely fell out, she still wouldn't be able to protect her younger brother and sister.】

【Extremely tangled thoughts played out in Mirajane's mind.】

【Erza: "Mirajane when she was young... I have never seen her show such an expression."】

【Gray: "Yeah, in my impression, Mirajane when she was young was always fearless, I didn't expect... sigh..."】

【Happy: "It's so depressing to watch, I still like the Mirajane who can argue and fight with Erza."】

【Wendy: "Mira-san at this time... must be very painful, right?"】

【Charle: "That's for sure. Sigh, she clearly had good intentions to help the village drive away the demon, but ended up being spurned by everyone."】

【Mirajane: "These things have already passed. To be honest, I am actually very grateful for the heartlessness of that group of people back then."】

【"Otherwise..."】

【"I might not have met you guys, and I wouldn't have come to such a gentle place."】

【Mirajane looked at the sky screen, with a smile on the corner of her mouth.】

【Gently and softly narrating.】

【A hand was placed on her shoulder, making Mirajane couldn't help but look back.】

【The smile seemed to be even brighter: "Of course, I wouldn't have met you, my rival, either."】

【Erza smiled beautifully: "Ah, that goes without saying."】

【She looked at the sky screen again: "I believe that in that world, we will still be like this."】

【As for the two people opposite.】

【Erza was curiously looking around; it was her first time seeing such a simple environment.】

【And Black Natsu was unhurriedly blowing on the hot water in his cup, then taking a small sip.】

【Although there was no tea in the cup, this posture was already that of a seasoned old tea drinker.】

【In this dull atmosphere.】

【Mirajane, who felt so suffocated she couldn't breathe, finally couldn't hold back and spoke first.】

【"By the way... what exactly did you mean by what you just said?"】

【Black Natsu raised his head upon hearing this.】

【Then he placed the cup in his hand on the ground.】

【Slowly opening his mouth: "It's just the literal meaning. The demon has already been eliminated by you, therefore, there is no such thing as subjugation."】

【"The demon... has already been eliminated?"】

【Lisanna looked at Black Natsu excitedly upon hearing this.】

【"Really? But my sister..."】

【"Can I take a look at your hand?"】

【Black Natsu said.】

【Hearing this, Mirajane hid her hand behind her back again as a conditioned reflex.】

【But, under Black Natsu's persistent gaze, she still lost.】

【Tremblingly... she stretched out that palm.】

【"You guys can look, but I'll say it first, this is very disgusting."】

【Black Natsu and Erza both looked at the arm Mirajane stretched out.】

【That was not a hand that a human could possess at all; the entire arm presented an anti-human brown color.】

【On the back of the hand, the wrist, and the arm, there were dark purple bulges, just like gemstones.】

【The fingertips were extremely sharp, and there were uneven protrusions on the entire arm, as if predicting the danger of this arm.】

【Black Natsu narrowed his eyes slightly.】

【Then, amidst the strange eyes of everyone, Black Natsu suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed Mirajane's arm.】

【Gray: "He touched it?!"】

【Gajeel: "Eh? This development seems a bit wrong!"】

【Makarov: "Ah? Why did the art style suddenly change??"】

【Gildarts: "Oh oh oh, Black Natsu of that world seems to be very enlightened. I, in that world, would definitely like that kid, hahaha."】

【Erza: "Gildarts! What are you stirring up trouble for over there??"】

【Hades: "By the way, what kind of ghost development is this? It was just so dull a moment ago, why did he suddenly touch it?"】

【Brain: "If Irene of that world saw this scene, she would probably be numb, right?"】

【Irene: "Brain! If you don't speak, no one will treat you as a mute!"】

【August: "Ho ho, presumably someone could laugh until they wake up even while sleeping, right?"】

【Ur: "Someone? Who??"】

【August: "Don't know, don't know, the time hasn't come yet. When it comes, you will know."】

【Zeref: "August, you seem to be quite free lately, huh?"】

【August: "Cough cough... no no, I'm just watching and expressing my opinion by the way."】

【Zeref: "Keep watching. I feel that Black Natsu, this person, should have some purpose."】

【Zeref's guess was quickly verified.】

【Everyone present was a bit confused by Black Natsu's sudden move.】

【Erza's eyes widened at this moment.】

【Her gaze was fixed on the two hands that were tightly gripped.】

【Her silver teeth bit together unconsciously.】

【Mirajane was also very confused.】

【She had thought that after seeing this arm, perhaps the two in front of her would show disgusted or fearful eyes.】

【However, she never expected that this guy not only didn't do that.】

【Instead, he grabbed her hand in one go, and... also closed his eyes??】

【Lisanna was shocked!】

【Her unbelievable gaze looked at Black Natsu at this moment.】

【A thought gradually emerged in her mind.】

【This Mage-sama... could it be that he wants to hit on her sister?】

【For this... he even ignored the demon's arm?】

【"Eh??? You... what are you doing?"】

【Feeling the temperature coming from her hand, Mirajane finally came back to her senses.】

【Immediately after, Mirajane, who had been touched on the palm by a strange opposite sex for the first time, also flushed red.】

【Stammering and opening her mouth.】

【Watching this scene, Erza's eyes on the side were even starting to be filled with bloodshot eyes.】

【What... is going on here??】

【At this moment, Black Natsu, who was being watched by everyone, was closing his eyes tightly.】

【His brows were tightly locked.】

【His expression was a bit wrong.】

【In Black Natsu's sensing, he could clearly feel the demonic power sleeping in Mirajane's body through that demon arm!】

【Thump thump... thump thump... thump thump...】

【At the same time! That feeling of heart racing and fighting spirit boiling also surged into his heart again.】

【Even, gradually making Black Natsu start to feel a bit excited.】

【Hum... hum...】

【Just when Mirajane wanted to speak to interrupt Black Natsu.】

【A strange feeling surged into her heart.】

【Her heartbeat also started to speed up rapidly, and her body started to get hot.】

【The already flushed cheeks turned red again.】

【Her breathing started to become rapid.】

【Her eyes... also gradually started to turn toward scarlet.】

【This strange feeling made Mirajane's face start to twist a bit.】
