Chapter 26 Mass Curse Spell, Incantation Song
Chapter 26 Mass Curse Spell, Incantation Song
When Shirou Kotomine and his group returned to the train, Natsu was still fast asleep in his original spot, not yet awake.
"Great, he's still here."
Erza breathed a sigh of relief.
She could never forgive herself if Natsu disappeared or got into trouble for this reason.
After all, Natsu was on the train and had no ability to resist.
What's more, she had previously knocked Natsu unconscious.
"It's good that Natsu is here. Since there's nothing else, let's get off the train quickly. It seems like the train is about to start moving again."
Sensing the movement of the train, Lucy quickly reminded them.
"That's right, we need to speed things up."
Gray, who had also noticed this, had already walked to Natsu's side, put his arm around Natsu's shoulder, and was about to take him away.
"etc!"
Suddenly, Shirou Kotomine called out to Gray.
The three, unaware of what was going on, immediately looked at him.
"What's wrong, Shirou?"
Seeing Shirou Kotomine standing there, frowning and staring intently at his wrist, Lucy quickly asked him what was wrong.
"It seems there are some particularly dangerous items on this train."
Looking at the cross on his wrist that was trembling violently, Shirou Kotomine's expression gradually became serious.
He remembered.
At that moment, the Iron Forest Mage who carried Zeref's demon was also on this train.
"What? Extremely dangerous items!"
Erza's expression turned serious upon hearing Shirou Kotomine's words.
"What on earth is going on?!"
"That's right!"
Kotomine Shirou quickly told Erza and the other two about the effects of his Mystic Code Danger Detection.
"A magical item with reconnaissance effects?"
Erza glanced at Shirou Kotomine's bracelet and nodded slightly.
Without much hesitation, Erza immediately commanded, "Gray, put Natsu down first. Our priority is to remove the dangerous items from the vehicle."
"Let's try to resolve this before we reach the next stop."
"The next stop, Kuruki Station, is only a ten-minute walk from this station. We can quickly take the train back without delaying anything else."
As Erza made her decision, the train started moving again.
"I'll listen to you!"
Gray, who had already put Natsu back in his chair, shrugged.
Gray naturally had no objection to this.
Helping others is a habit that Fairy Tail members have all developed under the guidance of Chairman Makarov.
Not to mention acts of bravery and righteousness.
"Let's get started now."
Erza said decisively.
"Happy, you don't need to come with us. Stay here and take care of Natsu, so he can find us when he wakes up."
"like!"
Habi agreed.
"Then I'll lead the way."
Looking at the bracelet on his wrist, Shirou Kotomine took the lead and walked forward.
Erza Gray and Lucy followed closely behind him.
The four walked along the only aisle in the carriage, heading in the direction indicated by the cross on the bracelet.
They maintained a normal pace to avoid missing the dangerous item.
Soon, the two carriages had passed.
The cross on Shirou Kotomine's wrist still points forward.
Just as a man walked towards them and they brushed past each other, the cross on Shirou Kotomine's wrist suddenly shifted direction.
"That's him!"
Kotomine Shiro immediately made a judgment.
The voice just fell.
A dark shadow flashed by, and the man who had brushed past Kotomine Shirou was pinned to the ground.
It was Erza who made the move.
Before the captured man could even react to what was happening, Gray had already reached into his pocket and taken a strange flute from his body.
"That's it!"
Glancing at the cross on the bracelet, Shirou Kotomine said with certainty.
"Damn it, give my stuff back!"
Only then did the man realize what had happened, and he shouted loudly at Kotomine Shirou and the others.
At the same time, his shadow instantly transformed into a fist, which he swung towards Shirou Kotomine and Gray.
Clearly, he is a mage who manipulates shadows.
However, Mine Shirou and Gray didn't seem to care at all.
They knew very well that the opponent's attack was futile and could not cause them any harm.
Because it's Erza who's holding him down!
Sure enough, a cold glint flashed, and the opponent's shadow was instantly severed.
That was Erza, who summoned the longsword into her hand using a transformation spell.
After severing the enemy's shadow, Erza, sensing that the opponent posed a slight danger, swung her sword hilt and smashed it into the enemy's face.
This blow was exceptionally heavy.
"You dare to lay a hand on Iron Forest? We will never let you get away with this!"
Before he could finish his harsh words, the guy passed out.
"Iron Forest!?"
Erza and Gray both showed surprise upon hearing this.
They never expected that the person they were looking for would actually come to them on their own initiative.
"What a coincidence that this guy is actually the Iron Forest member we're looking for!"
Gray complained.
"Could this be the thing they want to break the seal on?"
Gray looked at the flute in his hand with a look of disgust.

After all, this thing is really weird.
The top of the flute was a skull, and a three-eyed one at that.
This doesn't look like anything good.
And that is indeed the case.
"Wait, it can't be that story, can it?"
Lucy, who had been quiet all along, suddenly exclaimed.
Ever since she saw the flute, she felt like she had heard of it somewhere before.
After thinking it over, she finally remembered.
"What's wrong, Lucy?"
Seeing Lucy's unusual expression, Shirou Kotomine quickly showed concern.
"I think I know what this is now."
Hearing Lucy's words, Erza and Gray also looked at her.
"I've heard the legend of the flute with a three-eyed skull; it could very well be 'Lalabai,' a spell or incantation that represents death!"
"What, a spell?!"
Erza's expression turned to surprise.
Gray was somewhat puzzled.
Even Shirou Kotomine became serious.
"That's right, it's a spell song!"
Lucy's expression was unusually serious.
"You know about curse killing, right? It's a black magic that directly places a death curse on the target. This kind of magic was banned by the Council a long time ago."
"But the incantation is even more terrifying!"
"The Spell Song is a collective curse spell. It can curse and kill everyone who hears the sound of this flute. It is a magic flute made by the legendary black mage Zeref."
After saying that, Lucy's expression was also filled with terror.
Because of her love for reading and the magical world, she has read many legendary stories about the magical world.
But she never expected that something legendary would one day appear right in front of her.
So close to her.
