"The Rakshasa Evil Spirits are about to be destroyed? What do you mean by that?" Eleven grasped the key point and couldn't help but ask.

Brain's brief mention was truly astonishing. Eleven found it hard to imagine that a powerful guild like the Rakshasa Evil Spirits, a dark empire in itself, could be destroyed. Just how much power would that require?

However, Brain, who had just been boasting, stopped talking and didn't answer Eleven's question. Instead, he chuckled.

Haha, how about this? I'll change the terms! You don't need to join us, you just need to do one thing for me.

"What is it?" Eleven asked warily.

It's not a difficult matter. I have an important train station that you Rakshasa Evil Spirits have stolen, and I'd like to ask you to help me get it back. That shouldn't be too hard, right?

Even without looking, Eleven knew that Brain on the other end of the call was definitely wearing an evil smile. How was this request any different from his previous attempt to get him to betray the Rakshasa Evil Spirits and join them?

Does it mean that as long as there is no emotional infidelity, it doesn't count as cheating?

Sure enough, dealing with a seasoned veteran like Brain is exhausting; I was being led by the nose the whole time.

Fortunately, Eleven had absolutely no connection with that Rakshasa Evil Spirits. Brain was practically digging at thin air the whole time, but his skill in wielding the hoe still impressed Eleven.

"Okay, I promise you. Which station?" Eleven agreed almost without hesitation.

On the other side, Brain smiled knowingly, once again praising his own wisdom! Look, with just a few simple words, I unearthed a peerless genius from Rakshasa Evil Spirits! I'm truly awesome! (Hands on hips)

This Elizabeth is quite the opportunist; she has good judgment, and I'm growing to admire her more and more!

What do those idiots, those Rakshasa Evil Spirits, have to fight me? With the mercenaries they hired? What a joke!

Just wait, it won't be long before your wealth, resources, and connections all become mine!

This dark world has been dormant for too long; let me revitalize it!

Hahahiahiahiahia

He was laughing hysterically!

Meanwhile, in another direction.

"Lightning Bullet!"

Laxus unleashed countless orbs of Electric Light from his hands, floating shakily and seemingly harmless. However, whenever an enemy passed by, the orbs would rapidly converge on the target before exploding in a single burst, causing massive damage.

In this chaotic battlefield, Laxus's area-of-effect skills played an absolutely unimaginable role. Enemies in front of him fell one after another like ears of wheat waiting to be harvested, eliciting enthusiastic cheers from his teammates.

"Laxus, well done!" Even the usually calm Freed couldn't help but cheer. It has to be said that Laxus's magic is full of violent aesthetics, and watching him harvest enemies is definitely a pleasure.

"Hey! Charge with the blond guy!"

Behind Laxus followed hundreds of equally bizarre-looking mages, licking their daggers and grinning wildly, as they charged through the gap Laxus had created.

Laxus glanced at the people passing by, stopped attacking, and stepped aside with some disdain to avoid contact with them.

"Laxus, thank you for your hard work! Thanks to you, we were able to open this breach." Freed approached Laxus obsequiously, flattering him; he was completely impressed by Laxus's power.

However, Laxus didn't show any smugness. Instead, he frowned at his teammates and asked in a deep voice, "Freed, is our opponent really the Dark Guild? Why do these teammates of ours seem like bad people too?"

After Freed told Laxus some secrets about the dark guilds, Laxus decided to come along. It wasn't that he had any sense of justice; he simply wanted to gain some experience.

These mages from legitimate guilds don't actually have many opportunities to come into contact with the dark guilds. In addition, with Makarov's deliberate protection, Fairy Tail rarely gets involved in such chaotic battles.

Therefore, Laxus naturally thought this would be a rare experience, one that no one else had ever had. He figured that the days of punching Gildarts and kicking Eleven were just around the corner!

Freed and his team's mission was to attack several train stations occupied by the Dark Guild. As for who commissioned them, Freed and his team didn't know. Mercenaries were content with just getting paid and doing their jobs; they never asked too many questions.

At this moment, Laxus seriously suspected that they were just helping one dark guild fight another. Because these guys around him were really not good people at all. Not only were they despicable and ugly, but their magic was also extremely dirty. It was obvious at a glance that they were definitely not legitimate mages.

However, Laxus was just saying it casually and didn't intend to delve into it further. Anyway, he didn't know either side, so it didn't matter who he fought. As for the conflict of interest between the dark guilds, he didn't care! He just needed to hide his guild emblem and not cause trouble for the guilds.

Soon, under Laxus's offensive, their troops advanced like a whirlwind, capturing the train station with almost no effort.

Although the detained trains remained in custody, the passengers who had been imprisoned were safely released under Laxus's domineering and forceful threats.

"Hey! You think you're their leader? I was on my way to Fairy Tail in Magnolia by train to meet the fairies, and now you've impounded my train! How are you going to compensate me?!"

Just as Laxus was about to turn and leave, a domineering figure suddenly jumped out from the group of passengers, pointed at Laxus's nose and started yelling, looking rather adorable with his obliviousness to his own mortality.

"Hey! How could you talk to Laxus like that!" Before Laxus could react, Freed shielded him behind him, glaring angrily at the man before him, acting like a devoted sycophant.

The surrounding mages, their faces contorted like cracked dates, chuckled evilly as they looked at the reckless little girl. How dare she provoke this hot-tempered young man? She must be tired of living.

However, Laxus didn't fly into a rage as everyone expected. Instead, he pushed Freed aside, walked up to him with a strange expression, and asked, "You just mentioned Fairy Tail? What are you going to do there?"

"Of course we're going to see the fairies!"

Laxus was a little disappointed. He had thought the guy was a newbie who wanted to join the guild, but it turned out he was a lunatic. What a pity.

"May I have your name?"

"Hehehe, my name is Evergreen, and I am the most beautiful fairy in the world!" Evergreen began her performance again.

Oh(_)

Laxus was speechless, once again feeling inferior for not being silly enough. If only Eleven were here, at least this wouldn't be so awkward!
