Chapter 38: Sub-Zero Emperor (3)

~Silva POV~

Taking the quest way with Erza using the Magic Car again rushing it as Mavis pouted at me for leaving her behind only to come back around chasing after me as Erza rode the car heading towards Hargeon Town to get a ride to Galuna Island.

To be honest I'm kind of flattered that I was brought along while others are annoyed that I was dragged here by Erza.

While having the chance I began to talk to Erza about the kinds of punishment she would do to them for breaking the rules for curiosity's sake, "So… what kind of punishment are you talking about when you reach them? I've been hearing you muttering what you will do to them when you get your hands on them?"

She took her eyes on the road but nonetheless replied to me with a stern tone in her voice, "It's better you don't know. My way is simply laying the smack down to them with an inch of their life. While Master would provide the punishment…"

*Shiver*

I saw her shiver at the idea making me raise an eyebrow that even made the great Erza Scarlet shiver in fear responding, "It's best you never get to know. For your sanity's sake…"

You know what?

I think I'll take her word for it.

But since it will be a long while before we catch up to them, I began to simply talk to her to get her mind off of getting the group for the time being, "Since we have the time and the group aren't going anywhere, I think it's about time to cash in that favor."

Erza listened but nonetheless nodded but also an edge in her voice of what she thought I wanted her to do, "Very well Silva. But if you expect me to shield the four –"

Before she could continue, I interrupted her by stating it wasn't defending those 4 since they will either get off lucky by Phantom Lord or by the Changeling.

No, that wasn't the reason as I began to talk more about what I wanted more is a bit more practical from her as I shook my head, "No. It's ultimately up to the Guild Master to decide. No, my favor is a bit more straightforward than you would think. I was hoping you would teach me how to fight taught by one of the best I know of."

At this, Erza smiled from the compliment immediately agreeing to the favor seeing this would be simpler for her to accomplish as well as better situate myself on how to handle S-Class level threats like her in the future.

Experience and practice make up for a long way for me to grow stronger.

Likewise, Erza agreed as she replied to me about the favor I wanted after the mission of collecting the Natsu team is over, "Very well. It sounds like a simple manner to train a fellow family member. But be warned though I'm strict in my teachings and I won't go easy on you."

Noted.

*Thud*

Stopping we finally managed to make our stop as Erza informed me getting off the Magic Car of the location, "We're here. Hargeon Port. I'll procure us the means to travel to the Cursed Island as for you Silva follow my lead. My negotiation skills might be something worth learning from."

Negotiation skills?

I merely shrugged at her words as I got a good view of Hargeon Port with a bemused smile written all over my face.

<Observe>.

[Hargeon Port

Description: Hargeon is one of Fiore's ports and also one of its most beautiful old towns. The town is more prosperous and renowned for fishing rather than Magic because only 10% of the people in the town have the ability to use Magic. Like any port city, it has its own large marina, located in the southern part of town though it was destroyed by Natsu Dragneel during his fight with Bora. In the town, there is also a train station and a public park.]

This place sure looks beautiful feeling the fresh sea air brushing past my hair and face as well as close by too. Hargeon is located in the southern part of the Kingdom of Fiore, near Magnolia Town. Hargeon is a large port town located in Fiore.

Like that, I see Erza found her targets a group of pirates as I sweat drop of what's about to become next while clasping my hands together, "Oh, you poor fools I pity the into the next plane."

Mavis merely looked at me with a raised eyebrow before replying to me in a knowing tone, "You my entertainment are weird."

I merely grew a tick mark as she giggled pushing my buttons. I'm not weird I'm perfectly normal thank you very much.

"AH! MERCRY!!"

Gazing my eyes at the ongoing fight occurring Mavis merely smiled seeing Erza in action with an amused tone, "I like her. She gets straight to the point."

Yeah…

The point of using brute force perhaps.

/////

"Aye! Yes, scary lady!"

"Good."

*Thud*

My eye twitched seeing Erza negotiate with a group of pirates as she demanded from them to take us to Galuna Island they disagreed in an argument, but she provided her own counter to their argument…

Violence.

Mavis for her part looks at what transpired with a happy grin on her face nodding at Erza's method of negotiation, "Hmm… seems very practical. Silva, you could learn a thing or two about this way of negotiation. You could go a long way."

The long way to the slammer maybe.

But in an anime-based world perhaps violence is the way.

Got it.

More violence.

That solves almost all problems in the world if it doesn't work.

Then you know you ain't using enough.

But digressing that point though the pirates got to work providing us the means to travel us to Galuna Island as Erza returns puffing her armor out, "See? That's how you get things done negotiating Silva."

I…

Taking a deep breath and exhaling I decided to be upfront with her about one of her weaknesses with a curious gaze directed at her, "You don't talk much in socially with others, don't you?"

She blinked at that before replying back sheepishly showing trying to regain her composure with a stern tone, "W-what exactly do you mean by that?"

There it is again.

She's acting more or less awkward right there.

Seeing the issue I decided to be more direct with her about the number of people she talks to regularly in the Guild in a curious, "See right there? You stuttered showing you don't talk much to others. Actually, now that I think about it have the other members of the guild bothered talking to you normally like a person? Other than the Master of course."

At this, she tried to speak about that but only a small few came out even then, I pointed out that Natsu and Gray both fear her naturally because of the beatdowns along with the guild saying you're too strict.

She seemed for the first time to be shocked as I couldn't help but mutter in surprise that she just now realized that fact, "Wait… you mean to tell me you just got that? The signs are obvious~"

Much to her effort, she had managed to blush embarrassed red like a tomato muttering out lots of excuses of people wanting to talk to her normally in ramblings, "Well… it's not like those guys come and ask to talk to me. I mean most that do would flirt or ask my hand in marriage yuck… Ichiya at age 15 asked me. But there were others talking to me only stuttering – oh my god they were actually afraid of me weren't they I mean I'm not that scary. But then why –"

Ok…

I think I broke her.

Imagine that.

Mavis looked at the coherent mess I made Erza somehow realizing her social issues then back to me blinking before speaking impressed, "Huh? Never thought I see the day when an S-Class would die of the embarrassment of social interactions. Nice going Silva you somehow broke an S-Class Wizard with words alone and no Magic. Real talent right there."

More like the power of common sense or possibly gaslighting.

Before we could continue more of the conversation the captain of the Pirate Ship yelled at us to join with a fearful expression on his face, "Yarg! We are all set to sail crazy strong my lady and plus one! B-But do we have to do this??"

Erza returned her hardened glare as the early mess of a girl washed away as we both walked the bridge of the pirate ship as started to set off to sail.

As we continue to reach our destination and the pirates try to attack us for going to the island but only to be deterred by Erza beating the living crap out of them as the Pirate Captain was begging to turn around, "Why do you want to go to that island anyway?!"

Being determined she replied in a harsh tone to the pirate, "Never mind!!! Just steer!"

The poor Pirate captain merely flinched in fear after having Erza beat him up as he tries to persuade her to turn around back, "Ahh!! Don't make me do this…. Galuna Island is cursed!! The rumors say it turns men into demons….!!"

However her glare never faltered as she looked at the distance ahead of us with clear signs of anger and determination in her voice, "It doesn't matter. Those who break the rules must be punished!!! That's all there is to it!!!"

The Pirates all flinched at that as I couldn't help but sigh mentally at the scene but then again these are pirates so… there free game.

Although the Pirate Captain was being difficult despite Erza threatening the man I rolled my eyes as I decided to go ahead and take the steer, "Fine… just let me sail the damn ship. It would probably be faster that way anyway. Just tell me the direction of the island."

The Captain nodded his head as I took control of the steering wheel as fled while I have Rongo Rongo out for direction as I took command easily of the ship with my <Riding> skill kicking in allowing me to easily ride the ship like I knew this at the back of my hand.

*Sssssst*

[<Riding> LEVEL UP!]

Taking the wheel and turning around the ship like I have done so for years thanks to my skill I pulled it around towards the direction of Galuna Island as Erza looked surprised that I could steer a ship, "Silva… I didn't expect you to be skilled in sailing a ship. Were you a sailor prior to joining the guild? And it seems like you know the location by chance were you going regardless of what the master said?"

I shook my head as I began taking control of the ship I replied to her honestly with a shrug, "Nope. I didn't intend to but if it took months then I was willing to take my chances. Besides, with my Magic Tool Rongo Rongo, it will be easy to locate the island. But it can't be that hard stirring the ship also can you help maintain the sails."

Erza gave me a questioning look but did as she was told following my words with pure belief and faith in them.

This is going to be a very long trip collecting those 4. Hopefully, my <Riding> Skill would be enough to get us there faster with Rongo Rongo.

Chapter 39: Sub-Zero Emperor (4)

~Third POV~

*Zugwoooo*

Returning to Galuna Island landing on the shore of the island with the Enchants increasing the speed of the Pirate Ship the two landed at the island finally with Erza expressing her hardened glare, "Good. We came here in good time. Seems like you managing the ship is a wise choice after all. You certain you haven't manned a ship before?"

Silva merely shook his head as he got a view of the island as Galuna Island is located far east of Hargeon Town. It is far into the sea, with no other land visible around it. It is shaped like a crescent moon with small islands extending the area, covered by a large number of trees, green plants, vines, and steep rocks which make it harder to hike.

Silva whistled at the sight but returned to their original objective in front of Erza's eyes responding to her using Spectator, "This looks like a nice place. Best to look for the village to gather more information on the matter or luckily enough to find the rest there sleeping. Hmm… seems like Lucy is in that direction ahead."

Knowing that's very unlikely Silva did recall Lucy and Happy being there to warn the villagers as Erza nodded in agreement, "Good. At the very least will find out where the rest are after interrogating Lucy. Now hold on tight Silva."

"Huh?"

Not before too long she grabbed him by the shirt collar as he realized what is going to happen mentally, 'Oh shit—NOT AGAIN DAMN IT!!!'

*WOOSH*

Dragging him along with her fist rushing towards the location of the concentration of Magic Power using Magic Sense as Erza detected one with her eyes glaring down on one she recognized.

As she rushed towards the village, they finally had their eyes landed down on it with Silva released by Erza grip as he dusts himself off, "Now… a little warning next time before you suddenly start dragging me by the collar Erza would be really appreciated. Also, I wouldn't take another step if I were you."

Erza took the time to turn around taking a step forward towards the village, "Huh? What –Ack!"

Not too long she received her answer as she was suddenly caught in a pit trap that was very obviously seen under the dried grass on time for Silva to see Erza getting herself out with him expressing a deadpan look as he replied, "Told yah not to take a step."

Erza soon cut through the net and both see a small village lying within the island with a very tall gate. The gate has a sign stating, Keep Out. Above, sharp spikes line the gate. On both sides, there are two large posts, and on the top are two large spikes connected to those posts. A wall encircles the entire village to further protect it from outsiders.

With the Gate open both located within the walls are many huts with guard towers watching the whole village with torches lighting the area along with a shocked Lucy and Happy both sweating seeing Erza and Silva as Virgo in the background recreates the hole.

Erza immediately realizing who sprang the trap after getting her way out commented on it as she gets closer to the two, "A trap huh? So, you knew I would be coming and prepared this in advance suspecting me? Have to say I didn't expect you to foresee this commendable event. But I'm afraid such a thing won't trap me for long. Now then… your punishment."

*Shinng*

Revealing her sword and preparing to fight Lucy immediately surrendered right away waving her hands and trying to avoid a fight, "Wait! Wait!! This is a big misunderstanding that trap wasn't meant for you it was meant for the evil wizards coming to destroy the village!!"

That caused her to pause at the words being heard as Silva intermediated putting his hand over Erza's sword putting it down letting Lucy speak, "Now, now Erza. Let the poor girl speak so we can understand what exactly is going on here. She's not going to run away might as well hear how they botched this up."

Lucy flinched hearing that didn't go unnoticed by Erza putting her sword down with one word to her causing her to sweat in fear, "Explain."

Although fearful Lucy gave a light nod towards Silva for allowing her to make her case as she tries to plead with Erza with her hardened glare directed at her, "Hold it! Just listen for a second…!!! I apologize for coming here without permission… but they're real trouble on this island!!! There are people who are trying to revive a huge demon trapped in ice!! And innocent people are suffering because of it!! Anyway, some awful things are happening!!! I rushed down here to warn the villagers about what's going to happen, but it seems like you guys beat them to the punch…"

Erza listening to this merely pinches the bridge between her nose at the revelation of the news as she would've just taken them and left but unfortunately or fortunate for Lucy they managed to arrive early than expected.

Meanwhile, Silva was genuinely shocked muttering out in surprise about the events occurring speaking out surprised, "Oh? Seems like we got here before them huh? Hmm…"

Erza gave a curt nod of agreement that with Silva behind the wheel and with his <Riding> skill he managed to increase its speed certainly made the trip getting to the island easier along with Rongo Rongo providing the correct routes.

In the end, though Erza asked another question to Lucy as she is downright terrified of her asking her question, "Although I have to ask… would these Wizards have been attracted here if you or Natsu didn't interfere."

Lucy merely lowered her head in shame as Erza could only sigh at this left with no choice but take on protecting the village explaining her reasoning, "Sigh… You and Natsu's behavior have brought Fairy Tail's name to shame with your actions. I cannot let this village fall be brought to ruin bringing shame to the Fairy Tail Guild name. And what of Gray did he also join as well in this charade?"

Lucy nodded her head explaining why he joined as well as why he couldn't stay Silva shook his head at this replying in a defeated tone, "Oh boy. There's no way that guy would leave even if we force him if what he said was true. Highly doubt he will listen to reason even if you threaten Gray Erza."

Turning his eyes towards Happy trying to look small as possible Silva then asked Lucy a question about the demon's location, "Where is Deliora then?"

Lucy replied with uncertainly in her voice as she spoke back in a confused tone, "In an ancient temple also lies on the island. It has succumbed to age with most of its walls being cracked and plant life growing atop it."

Nodding at this Silva then eyes dart towards Happy already having a plan of what to do as he spoke out his plan, "Happy! I need you to take me Deliora at once! With my Magic, I should be able to find Natsu or Gray if they need help. Or at the very least see they aren't harmed against the enemy with my potions. If we act too late now it may be too late to change anything."

*Shinng*

However, Erza firmly replied to Silva's plan as her sword was raised near his throat wanting answers to his request, "Silva we are here for the return of these rulebreakers to the guild not take the request! I promised Master to protect you, but do you intend to break the Guild rules too –"

Before she could continue Silva merely replied back interrupting her and cutting her off from finishing, "No! I'm not doing this because I want to complete the mission. You could say I'm doing this for Fairy Tail honor!"

*Wooosh*

Wind passed by the group and the girls looked like they needed a moment to register to think about what they heard.

A brief pause occurred as the two girls took the moment to register what he said Silva thought to himself quickly, 'Good. Time to see that famous Talk no Jutsu in action works or myth. Here goes nothing.'

Regaining his composure Silva explained his reasoning that he created after given some time to formulate a plan ahead of time, "What I meant by that is if Fairy Tail were to go behind our backs on people in need how do you think this will affect back at the Guild? People will think bad of the Guild for turning a blind eye to this while we had the chance to do something instead run! But ultimately, it's up to you Erza…"

She lowered her sword slightly taking in the words now thinking about the possibility as Silva talks more to her choose the idea giving her the idea of the choice of her actions, "Once saving the village and collecting the group we leave bringing shame to Fairy Tail not helping the villagers in need… Or you take the request helping the villagers to help not bring shame to the guild as well save everyone here. The choice is up to you really. I'm okay with what decision you make in the end."

Erza only stood there contemplating the words as the shuffling sounds of the citizens slowly mutter with kids leaning close to their parents Silva frowned at what his going to do next with his head lowered activating Spectator, 'Sorry Erza. But sometimes you are too stubborn for your own good. And I remembered originally you didn't care till your Guildmates showed their stubbornness not refusing till you finally relented.'

Activating Spectator illusions for a moment as Erza mistakes it for her mind flashed back to the time of Rosemary Village being attacked along with recalling saving Kagura to keep her safe stunning her slightly recalling that memory.

Erza herself took a brief time trying to regain herself before recalling such a memory in this current time, 'Wait was that Kagura Simon's sister why –'

Before she could get her thoughts together Silva tried to get her out of her stupor.

"Erza?"

"Erza!"

"Ack!"

Erza seems to have gotten out of her shock as Silva looked at her with concern thinking he may have gone a bit too far trying to convince Erza, "You seemed to be in trance there Erza? You doing okay there?"

Taking the moment to regain her composure experiencing her PTSD taking a breather in and exhaling replying back regaining her confidence, "Whew… sorry. I was simply thinking of the possibilities you mentioned and just recalled something bad all. But you make a fair point of your argument."

Lucy for her part looks surprised as she slowly muttered in disbelief, "Wait so you mean…"

Erza gave a curt nod to the Celestial Spirit Wizard in agreement but also forewarned her of the punishment ahead, "Yes Lucy I decided to take on the job after some convincing. But don't forget that you all will be punished by the Master! Got it!!"

She only nodded her head as Happy quickly grabs Silva beginning to leave the scene unaware to the group except Silva a certain ghostly loli was witnessing everything from a safe distance away from the island much to her dismay.

/////

Mavis viewing everything from afar continued to gaze at her guild members' interaction with the group as she smiles at the event that occurred, "Intriguing. Silva managed to somehow make Erza choose to continue the mission while returning her guild mates in the process. The emotions he evoked are real with every word and intention. Although…"

Mavis tries to enter Galuna Island but was met with resistance as her Thought Projection couldn't penetrate anymore because of the Moon Drip barrier shielding the island preventing her from entering inside.

She tries to push her way in or phase, but nothing works with her emotions of anger showing up.

She pouts seeing she can't enter the island because of the properties of the Moon Drip side effect it left soon whining not witnessing the events happening, "Oh damn it! I can't see what's going on inside the island! I wanna see it! I wanna see it!!! I WANNA SEE!!!!"

Seeing that Mavis Thought Projection couldn't penetrate through the island she could only pout as tears start to well up in her eyes for not interacting, "Damn it! I wanted to see what the situation is going on and the drama unfolding!! I clearly saw Silva flee using my Magic Sense with Happy but why? Ahhhh!!!"

Crying out loud with literally no one but Silva to hear her outrage of being unable to participate or even witness up close to the action the only thing she could do was sense the situation with her mind trying to think of situations of what happened.

She bit her ghostly dress in frustration at not being able to see or share contact with Silva the only that saw her bitterly, "Oh!! That boy is so gonna get it when we talk again!!! Note to self-make sure Silva learns either <Telepathy> or <Archive> Magic so that I can see what he does next! The suspense is killing me!! Curse you… SILVAAAAA!!!!"

A/N: Sorry about the previous chapter with the MC having Virgo. That was a mistake I didn't have the chance to rewrite that part out. Sorry in advance if it confuses the reader.
