Chapter 48 Smashing the Moon (Ch 48)

The scene changes

Leo and his group and Ye Yang and his group walked towards the village.

Lucy asked, “I didn’t expect the S-rank mission to end like this.”

Natsu: “That’s right, even though we didn’t fight many times this time, it’s still considered accomplished. This way, the president will recognize me, and I can take on S-rank missions!”

Ye Yang attacked directly: “What are you thinking? Who said the mission is completed? Don’t forget what our commission is.”

Suddenly Natsu and the others quieted down and began to recall the commission.

& “Destroy the moon?!!”

Lucy said, “How is this possible? And the curse has been lifted! This also counts as completing the mission!”

Ye Yang looked at Lucy as if she were a fool: “Who told you the curse was lifted?”

“Didn’t we defeat Deliora?”

“Then look at Leo and the others, did they become demons? According to what you said, the curse was caused by Deliora, so why didn’t they become demons when they were closest to Deliora and stayed with her for several years?”

Natsu and the others finally reacted and stared at Leo and the others.

“Yeah! Why didn’t you turn into demons!”

Leo and the others looked at Natsu and the others with confusion.

“What the hell are you talking about, some demon?”

Then Gray told Leo the reason why they came here.

Leo said: “We have been here for all these years and have never come into contact with the villagers down there. As for what you said about turning into a demon, that is not the case at all.”

Lucy: “That means… we didn’t even break the curse!!”

Ye Yang looked at the disappointed people and shook his head

“You guys want to be S-rank with your current status? You’re still far from it!”

Gray seemed to have heard something.

“Ye Yang, do you know how to remove the curse?”

Ye Yang nodded. When everyone saw Ye Yang admit it, they all looked at him in shock.

Natsu hurriedly asked: “How should we solve this problem?!”

“There’s no rush for this, let’s go back to the village first.”

Soon everyone arrived at the village. When the villagers saw Ye Yang and others coming back, they immediately surrounded them.

The village chief said hurriedly: “Master, have you found a way to remove our curse?”

Ye Yang looked at the village chief’s expectant eyes and nodded.

When the villagers learned that the curse on them could be resolved, they all cried for joy.

Lucy and the others were still confused, they had no idea how to lift the curse.

“Ye Yang, please tell me what the solution is.”

“The solution is what the village chief said at the beginning: destroy the moon.”

“Huh?!”

Natsu said excitedly: “Ye Yang, you finally can’t control your desire to destroy?”

Happy: “Boss, do you want me to take you to the highest place?”

Gray: “You need me to build a bigger telescope.”

Lucy was speechless =_=: “You guys really believe that he can destroy the moon.”

“Love~ Boss is the strongest.”

Yuka looked at Ye Yang and always felt that he had seen him somewhere before.

“It’s you!”

Leo has been busy figuring out how to fight Deliora these years and hasn’t paid much attention to the affairs of the magic world, so he has no idea who Ye Yang is and doesn’t believe that this man can destroy the moon.

“What’s wrong Yuka, do you know this guy?”

Yuka nodded.

“I heard from my mother-in-law before that in the Fairy Tail Guild, there is a strongest wizard in the world, and the only one recognized by the kingdom as the number one wizard in Ishgar.”

“This is the first time we have seen him. It is said that he is ignorant of worldly affairs and has not been active in the wizarding world since the Great Purge.”

“So now his name is only known among our major guilds.”

Leo was also frightened by Ye Yang’s reputation. Being hailed as the number one magician, he also wanted to see what abilities this person had.

Ye Yang raised his right index finger and pointed to the sky.

Natsu and the others all knew what moves Ye Yang was going to use, and the energy waves emanating from his fingertips washed over the people around him.

Natsu and the others looked at Ye Yang with excitement. Ye Yang was usually too lazy and didn’t use his strength at all. Even the energy fluctuations emitted by the attack against the curse song were not as strong as this time.

“Flash!”

“Wow!!”

A powerful energy shock wave quickly rushed into the sky. When it reached a certain height, the energy wave directly hit something.

When everyone looked down, they saw cracks appearing in the sky. Everyone looked at what they saw in shock.

Lucy: “The moon is really broken!!”

After a while, the crack became bigger and bigger, completely exceeding the range of the moon that he could see.

Gray shouted: “It’s not the moon that’s broken, it’s the sky that’s broken!”

After a while, the shock wave broke through the barrier in the sky and the energy slowly dissipated in the air.

The purple moon turned back into the familiar white moonlight.

Lucy: “The moon is back?!”

Ye Yang explained: “The moon is always the same moon. The moon we see outside is white, but the moon we see on this island is purple.”

“Then the problem cannot be with the moon, but with this island.”

Natsu and the others looked at the people in the village and found that the traces of the devil on them had not disappeared.

Lucy wondered, “But the curse hasn’t been lifted. They still look like they are possessed by demons.”

“No, the curse has been lifted. The reason they didn’t turn back into humans is because they were not humans in the first place, but demons.”

& “What?! He’s a demon!!”

“Hey, can’t you guys think about it carefully? I’ve said before that if it really is a curse, then Leo and the others should be the first to turn into demon-eating demons.”

“Since Leo and the others are fine, there is only one truth: they are demons.”

Without the purple moonlight, the villagers seemed to remember something.

Village Chief: “It seems that just as this gentleman said, we are demons ourselves.”

Ye Yang: “I think it’s because when Leo and the others were collecting the Moon Drops, they created a barrier above the island.”

“The Moon Drop has the ability to break magic, so the villagers who live in human form during the day have been affected by the Moon Drop and their memories have been distorted.”

“At night, the moonlight penetrated the barrier formed by the Moon Drops and had the power to break through it, which turned them back into demons.”

Although the village chief accepted his identity as a devil, he still had one thing that puzzled him.

“But, I killed my son myself, so this memory should be correct.”

Suddenly there was a sound from the sky.

“Father! Father!”

The village chief looked up and immediately showed an excited look.

“It’s Bobo, my son! I’m so glad you’re okay!”

“But I remember I stabbed you at that time, are you okay?”

“Don’t worry, father. For us demons, this little damage will heal in no time.”

Then Bobo told everyone why he left the island after being injured and the reason for leaving.
