"Heave-ho!"
Eleven led everyone to a smooth landing on a small hill. The outline of Magnolia City was already faintly visible in the distance. They were finally going home.
Having carried five people for an unknown distance, even Eleven was feeling somewhat exhausted. He couldn't help but rub his temples to relieve his tense nerves.
"You've worked hard, Eleven." Cana noticed Eleven's fatigue, walked over to Eleven with her hands behind her back, and offered her her condolences.
"I'm fine." Eleven was still rubbing his head, forcing a smile at Cana.
At this moment, the most lively and outgoing little girl Lisanna, also walked up behind Eleven. She was there on behalf of her older siblings to express their gratitude. She tugged at Eleven's sleeve and said with a smile, "Brother Eleven, thank you for saving us."
Upon hearing Lisanna's voice, Eleven froze, mechanically turning around to place his hands on Lisanna shoulders. His face filled with shock, he stammered, "What... what did you just say?"
Lisanna was a little taken aback by Eleven's reaction and said somewhat fearfully, "Um... I said thank you..."
"No, what did you just call me?" Eleven looked excited, gazing at Lisanna with anticipation.
"Eleven... brother?" Lisanna was a little confused, answering Eleven's question timidly.
"Mmm! Say it again!" Eleven looked extremely happy, his face beaming with joy.
"Brother Eleven?"
"Okay! Let's do it one more time!"
"Brother Eleven."
"Yes, I'm here. Say it again!"
"Brother Eleven!"
"Hmm, again..."
Bang!!
"What are you doing to my sister, you perverted freak?!"
ヽ(#`Д´)ノ┌┛
Before Eleven could even get his fill, Mira delivered a flying kick to his face, sending him spinning through the air. Mira quickly caught Lisanna in her arms, checking if she had been abused by the pervert. Lisanna, on the other hand, seemed quite pleased, giggling to herself.
Cana walked over to Eleven, squatted down, and poked his cheek, which had been swollen from Mira's kick, with her finger. She sighed helplessly; she knew Eleven was being silly again.
"Kana, Cana called me Lisanna Eleven! She called me brother!"
Eleven completely ignored his cheek, excitedly showing it off to Cana. He was even somewhat dazed with excitement.
Cana patted his head, somewhat exasperated, and said in a doting tone, "Yes, yes, you've really worked hard~"
From that moment on, Lisanna became the group's darling, or rather, Eleven's darling. He could fulfill any request Lisanna made, and even went so far as to use his Telekinesis to help Lisanna "practice flying" along the way, just to hear Lisanna's laughter.
Mira was the most unhappy about this whole thing; she always felt that Eleven's excited expression whenever Lisanna called him "brother" was somewhat dangerous.
Is it really something to be happy about being called "brother" by others?
Standing at the familiar guild entrance, Eleven looked up at the fairy patterns on the guild banner, lost in thought.
Having witnessed the legendary unicorn, he now has a deeper understanding of the guild's name. It is precisely because of the eternal unknown that there is an eternal adventure!
Thank goodness the first generation didn't name the guild something like "Unicorn's Tail," otherwise his adventure would be over by now. What's so adventurous about that damned, lolicon unicorn? Sometimes, knowing the truth isn't necessarily a good thing!
Fortunately, fairies are still something to look forward to!
With that thought, Eleven smiled confidently again and pushed open the guild door, "I'm back!"
"Gray, put your clothes on!"
"Wakaba, the ashes are all over the ground."
"President, please don't drink so much!"
"Gray, put your pants on too!"
At this moment, Erza stood with her hands on her hips, surveying the guild with a satisfied expression, as proud and arrogant as a little lion surveying its territory.
For some reason, everyone in the guild was completely under Erza's control, and no one dared to resist, creating a very harmonious atmosphere.
At that moment, the guild's door was pushed open, and a group of people walked in, looking travel-worn.
Erza spotted the two walking ahead immediately and went to greet them, beginning her lecture. "Eleven, I heard you caused trouble again during the mission. You should have been helping Cana complete her first mission properly, but the mistake was yours instead. It's really..."
Eleven looked at Erza, who immediately launched into a tirade, with a puzzled expression. He wondered why Erza had become so talkative after just a few days.
Seeing so many people from the guild looking at them, and the menacing red-haired girl so close by, Mira, who was standing behind him, was instinctively frightened. She subconsciously hid behind Eleven and grabbed the hem of his clothes.
Sensing Mira's movement behind him, Eleven looked at Erza, who was still chattering on and on, and couldn't help but reach out and cover her mouth...
"Mmm~"
Erza immediately struggled, looking at Eleven with disbelief. This was the first time Erza had faced resistance since she decided to start reforming the guild rules these past few days. Apart from Laxus ignoring her, everyone else cooperated, even the troublesome Gray was persuaded by physical force.
This is the first time I've ever seen someone like Eleven take advantage of me like this, not even letting her finish her sentence. It's infuriating!
"Shh, don't talk yet, I have important business to discuss with the guild master!" Seeing Erza's angry little eyes glaring at him, Eleven remained unmoved, using his Telekinesis to hold her still and set her aside.
Erza only then noticed Mira and the other two behind Eleven, but there was nothing she could do about it; she could only stare at Lisanna, who was secretly observing her.
Makarov remained unchanged, sitting on his throne and sipping his drink. He ignored the commotion at the door and focused his attention on Mira; he had long noticed the girl's unusual nature.
"Let me see your arm," Makarov said to Mira before Eleven could speak.
"Hmm." Mira nodded without hesitation, slowly revealing her demonic arm. Although the presence of so many people around her made her a little scared, she had become much stronger now.
Makarov stared at Mira's arm for a moment, then picked up his glass, took a sip of wine, and said with narrowed eyes, "This is called acceptance, a kind of magic."
"You're not possessed by a demon at all; it's just that demonic power resides in your body."
After hearing Makarov's words, Mira and the other two were overjoyed. They instinctively looked at Eleven, who was smiling beside them. He was right!
"Then my sister's arm can recover, right?" Lisanna rushed in front of Makarov, looking at him expectantly.
"Of course, as long as she can fully master Take Over Magic, there won't be any problems." Makarov took another sip of his drink, his tone calm, but Eleven could sense the old man's excitement at having gotten such a great deal.
"You can stay at the guild for now; I'll arrange for someone to teach you magic."
"That's wonderful, sister!"
"Hmm~"
Upon hearing the news, the three siblings finally couldn't hold back their tears and embraced each other. The nightmare that had tormented them for so long was finally coming to an end.
