Bab 53: System Glitch? Let's keep it a secret~
The group went to the ruins and Hiro said "Deliora is up." Erza said "Go down and stop it if it wakes up. We're going to stop the ritual." Hiro nodded and landed on the ground, the ground shook and warped into a hole as Hiro fell down into the depths of the ruins.
Happy said "So cool!" Erza grabbed him and said "Let's go stop the ritual!" as she ran up the stairs with Lucy and Happy.
Hiro passed through layer after layer on the ruins, he saw Gray and waved as he passed through the ground into the underground area.
He floated in the air and walked over to Natsu and the masked man he saw. He smiled and disappeared, reappearing behind the masked man and saying "Boo." as the gravity around him intensified, pressuring the man to the ground.
Natsu said "Hiro!" Hiro smiled and said "Hey! Nice job. Erza's pretty pissed though..." Natsu laughed before choking as he said "E-E-Erza's here!?" Hiro chuckled and replied "Yup, she dragged me along... Hais... I was going to go on a picnic too..."
He crouched and held out the grimoire saying "If you could channel your Time Magic into this, Ultear. That would be very nice of you." the man trembled and said "Who are you!?" Hiro said "They call me the 'Fairy Oni', I wont say anything and you channel your lost magic into my book, okay?"
He smiled like a devil adding "Do we have a deal?" Ultear pressed her hand on the book and the grimoire opened, flipping to an empty page and the page turned yellow and old. Hiro closed the book and said "Thanks a bunch!" before kicking her into the rocks below, allowing her to escape.
Natsu ran over saying "What's that book???" Hiro said "It's a cool book, try channeling your magic in it." Natsu channeled his magic into it and a page burst into flames with a scale pattern on it. Hiro chuckled and Natsu's eyes popped out of their sockets as he said "It records magic!?"
Hiro showed him the others and Natsu's eyeballs rolled back to the guild at the other ones. He stopped it on Collapse magic and said "This one's insane!" Hiro chuckled and said "That's mine lmao." Natsu sucked in a cold breath of air and said "Cool!"
Suddenly, Deliora roared.
Hiro clicked his tongue and said "Fuck! So loud!" he closed the book and sent it away as Gray and Lyon showed up. The ice cracked and Hiro sat down saying "Go for it." Natsu grinned and smashed his fists together, they burst into flames and he charged at Deliora, punching at it.
Deliora punched and their fists collided and Deliora started cracking, stunning Natsu, Lyon, and Gray. Hiro smiled, Deliora's been dead for a long time because of Ul's sacrifice, he sighed to himself. He thought he could save her if he was being honest, but she was gone already.
He looked at the remains and his eyes trembled.
There were two shadows!
One in the water and another over the Deliora remains.
Hiro disappeared and reappeared over the remains. He looked at the duo with a unconscious Lyon, he muttered to himself before sighing and saying "Arise." A giant Deliora shadow came out of the remains and a small woman appeared.
Gray was stunned and said "Ul...." Hiro said "Relax. It's not your teacher. It's basically a copy of her soul called a shadow." he scratched his stubble and said "Can I keep her?" Gray was looking at the shadow Ul in a daze. She didn't look at Gray and just kneeled on one knee along with Deliora, towards Hiro.
She was wearing black armor with blue highlights, the only thing that vaguely resembled Ul was her face, hair, and figure. Other than that everything else was different.
Gray said "Is she-" Hiro assured him, saying "Resting in peace. Not alive anymore, as in, I didn't bring her back to life." Gray let out a breath and said "Alright. That's good." Hiro smiled happily and the 2 new shadow soldiers entered his army.
A while later
The group left the underground area and returned to the surface. Gray had a talk with Lyon before the group went back to the village camp to find nobody there. Lucy looked around and said "Huh? Where did they all go?" Hiro chuckled "Maybe they were tired of your nagging and ran awa-"
Lucy punched him in the head and shouted with a smoking fist "Did you just call me a nag?!?!" Erza looked around and said "Let's look around..."
Suddenly, a demon looking man ran out saying "Hey! You're here! You need to come take a look at this!" Hiro blurted out "Cliché." before covering his mouth and sighing "Why am I like this..." the rest of the group ignored him and they went to the original village.
Natsu was stunned and said "It's back to normal?! What?!" Hiro knocked on his head and said "The time guy, obviously." Natsu punched his fist and said "So he was a good guy the entire time!" Hiro chuckled and looked at Ultear, who was in a tree, and smiled.
Ultear clicked her tongue and disappeared.
Hiro chuckled and the villagers came to the group saying "Why haven't you destroyed the moon yet!?" Hiro looked at Erza and said "What are we doing chief?" Erza replied "Destroy the moon, obviously." Hiro said "Actually, I can..."
He paused and looked at the village chief, the old man was a blue demon with black spots. He said "Do you like the purple color of the moon, old man?" the village chief waved his staff saying "No! The moon must be destroyed! Look at us! We're so pitiful!"
The group, with the exception of Erza, sweat dropped. Hiro said "You're all originally demons anyway... Jeez." Lucy said "They're demons?" Natsu was confused and Hiro replied "The Moon Drip ritual created an evil lens over the island making the Moon look purple. In reality, it only altered their memories..."
He pointed his thumb at the villagers saying "They can change between humans and demons whenever they want but they believe themselves to be humans. Really it's a simple matter." he looked at Erza and said "Do you want to do it, or do you want me to do it?"
Erza said "We can do it together." Hiro smiled and said "Do you think I can't do it?" she tilted her head and said "That's right." Hiro clicked his tongue and clenched his right fist, it turned pitch black and black waves rippled off it as a terrifying aura appeared.
Hiro's horns and eyes glowed bright blue and the space around his fist warped as he punched up into the air, firing a black energy beam. It flew into the sky and smashed against the lens, creating cracks that spread across the sky before the sky itself exploded, revealing the normal white moon.
Hiro smirked at Erza, who snorted with a smile.
The village celebrated and the village chief said "Oni! Change to your demon form with us!" Hiro was stunned and pointed at himself, the villagers nodded and Hiro felt his mouth twitch as he said "I look like this all the time... I'm not a demon..."
There was an awkward silence and Hiro sighed before saying "Hold on a second." He touched his horns and closed his eyes. His skin turned blue and there was a black 'X' starting from his horns, crossing over his forehead, going over his eyes down to his neck.
He looked at himself and said "Hm. I didn't know I could do that..." the villagers cheered and the group was stunned.
They were brought to a giant feast as the Village Chief's son, Bobo, was revealed to be alive! Everybody celebrated and Hiro was eating as Lucy said "So you're a demon?" Hiro replied "No." Natsu retorted "But you can change!" Hiro replied "This isn't my true appearance though. I look like I did before, this is the first time, I became like this."
Erza asked "Are you stronger?" Hiro shook his head and replied "Same." Lucy said in confusion "So nothing different?" Hiro shrugged and said "Nope." as he continued to eat.
The celebration continued and two of Lyon's friends came, it was a woman with pink hair and a man with blue hair and EXTREMELY large eyebrows. They came to atone for their sins or something, Erza beat them up and Natsu invited them to party.
Hiro grabbed them and made them add their magic to his Grimoire, they stayed to eat before leaving, seemingly not upset about the loss of the giant rat.
The next day
The group said good bye to the villagers and sailed away on the pirate ship Hiro and Erza came on. They didn't get the 70 million Jewel reward but they did get the Sagittarius Zodiac key. Lucy was happy, the rest were disgruntled and upset. They didn't get anything! How were they supposed to pay for rent!
Natsu, Happy, and Gray looked at Hiro, who said "You cannot stay at my house." they pouted and gave him puppy dog eyes, he looked away and said "Hey.. What is that face for, I said no..." Happy cried "Y-You're just going to leave a sad kitty on the streets?"
Hiro couldn't even look at him and said "Erz-" she was looked at him too, he said "Why do you want to stay at my house..." they all replied "Food." Hiro was depressed, he was just too impressive.
A few days later
They finally arrived back in Magnolia and went to the guild.
They found out that Makarov wasn't there and rejoiced, Hiro went to the bar and sat next to Cana, ordering a drink. Cana looked at him and at his drink before snorting. Hiro looked at her and her keg before sneering, she sneered back and they said in unison "Mirajane! 10 Kegs!"
Mirajane was playing with Isabella and looked over with a helpless expression, brought rolling over 10 kegs. Hiro and Cana punched a hole in their kegs before drinking, as Natsu, Loke, Lucy, Gray, Erza, and Happy changed bodies in the background.
Hiro and Cana started their drinking contest and continued for a while, as Levy helped switch the group's bodies back.
A while later
Levy chanted a spell and Gray and Lucy went back to normal... The rest of the Guild changed however.
Hiro was in Cana's body and continued drinking as Cana swayed in his body. Hiro smirked and said "Heheh! Can you continue?" Cana looked at him, who was in her body and said "You're in my body! That doesn't count!" Hiro clicked his tongue and said "It sure does! Unless you're forfeiting~"
Cana grinded her teeth and continued drinking before falling off the stool and blacking out. Hiro jumped up in Cana's body and laughed "Hahaha! I win! I win!"
[Congratulations! You've completed [Outdrink the drinker!] Rewards: Magic Encyclopedia!]
[Congratulations! You've completed [Monster? I think not!] Rewards: Magic Core 3x]
Hiro jumped and everybody watched, he forgot he was in Cana's body and his excessive movements were too much for Cana's bra to bear. Therefore the bra slipped and her breasts were exposed.
Hiro stopped and said "Eh?" he looked down and saw naked breasts, he looked up and saw nosebleeds. He covered Cana's nipples and said "Perverts." he pulled up Cana's bra and covered her breasts up again, before snorting and turning away.
He recorded Cana's card magic into the grimoire and picked his own body up off the floor before propping himself up in a chair. He sat down and crossed his arms, squeezing Cana's breasts together, forgetting that he was in her body, yet again.
Hiro said "Mirajane, where's Zerotwo?" Makarov's body answered "She went on an S class Advancement quest. Though, she could probably so the SS class one.." Hiro was silent for a few moments and said "When did she leave?" Mirajane smiled and said "A few days, usually these kinds of quests take a week at least."
Hiro nodded and stayed silent, maybe he should go on his S-class advancement quest soon as well...
[New Quest! Become an S class Wizard! Rewards: Legendary Mystery Chest, Perfected Super Soldier Serum, Gravity Fruit, 2x 20 yr Experience Tokens!]
Hiro was stunned at the number of rewards he was getting for this one quest. Wasn't this too much? Then again, he couldn't use half of them, but since when was the System so generous? He didn't ask Clank, not really caring that much, plus if it made a mistake and then he spoke and it took away some of the rewards, wouldn't he be cheated?
En. It was better to keep this little glitch a secret. Don't want to embarrass the system. It's very shy.
A while later
Hiro was back in his body and he drank and healing potion, instantly sobering up. He got a half glare and half grateful look from Cana, apparently she knew what happened when she passed out. He gave her a thumbs up and a friendly smile before saying "Old man! I want to go on an S-class advancement quest!"
The guild instantly quieted down and everybody looked at Hiro in bewilderment and shock.
