Chapter 44 - Chapter 44 Iron Forest

The next morning, sunlight streamed through the clouds, bathing the earth in a golden glow.

The Fire Dragon Squad boarded the train and began their journey.

Yesterday's theft plan failed, and Erza caught them red-handed. However, she encountered a problem that required help, so she called on the entire Fire Dragon Squad.

Acnologia was slightly surprised when Erza mentioned the Iron Guild.

His experiences differed from the original story, yet these things still happened. Could there be some reason he was unaware of?

Natsu, slumped over in the carriage, was so dizzy he was practically rolling his eyes back: "Why... am I the only one who gets carsick?"

Acnologia snapped out of her daze and laughed, "That's because they're Dragon Slayer Mages. Every Dragon Slayer Mages gets motion sickness."

Lucy asked curiously, "Then why didn't you get carsick?"

Eileen, with her arm around Erza, smiled and said, "That's because I added balance to it!"

Natsu was practically fainting from shock. He opened his mouth and asked, "Then why didn't you give me the bonus?"

Eileen covered her mouth and chuckled, "You didn't ask me."

"hateful!"

"That's not how you beg for help!"

"I'll help you."

Erza reached out and pulled Natsu over, then punched him in the stomach, knocking him unconscious.

Seeing Lucy's shocked expression, she explained, "That's much better."

Lucy looked at Irene, then at Erza. This mother and daughter didn't seem like good people at all.

Eileen leaned close to Erza's ear and chuckled, "You're too violent. You'll never be able to get married."

Erza slapped away her restless hand and said coldly, "None of your business!"

Lucy asked, "What exactly is this mission you're talking about?"

Erza paused for a moment before saying, "I heard this on my journey. Someone discovered the curse-type item LULLABY and said they would deliver it to Erigor in three days."

She introduced the Iron Guild, an assassination guild that had committed numerous crimes and was expelled from the Guild Alliance, with Erigor as its leader.

Lucy's face stiffened as she listened: "I suddenly remembered that I forgot to bring in the laundry at home. I need to go find the train conductor!"

Happy patted his chest: "Lucy, don't be afraid, I'm here!"

Lucy: "..."

I feel like I'm a little better than you...

After a long silence, Erza suddenly remembered something and angrily punched the unconscious Natsu on the head, almost flattening his skull. She said coldly, "I was too careless. If I had remembered sooner, I would have killed them on the spot!"

Lucy, trembling as she hugged the Celestial Spirit Pru, exclaimed, "How terrifying!"

Erza said, "I came to you this time because that guild has a lot of members and needs your help!"

Lucy looked nervously at Acnologia and whispered, "What do you think?"

Acnologia looked out the window and laughed, "What else can we look at? Since Erza wants to destroy the Iron Guild, then let's destroy them!"

Those ants aren't worth his trouble.

Lucy was horrified. What kind of people were they?!

Can she get off the bus?

The train soon arrived at the station, and everyone got off. Natsu instantly regained full health the moment he touched the ground.

Suddenly a scream rang out on the train, and everyone scrambled to jump off.

A white-haired man carrying a large scythe stood on the carriage, holding a skull flute in his hand, a look of joy on his face: "I've finally obtained it, the real curse magic! Everyone who hears the flute's sound will die!"

Suddenly, a blue-haired man put his arm around his shoulder, his voice tinged with amusement: "Hey buddy, what's that you're holding? Let me see."

Eric was extremely wary and jumped back in alarm, asking, "Who is it?"

He was sweating profusely; how could he have not noticed someone approaching?

Damn it, how is this possible!

Acnologia turned to Erza and laughed, "This guy should be the Erigor you mentioned, and the skull flute in his hand should be the magical item called Lullaby."

"Natsu, Lucy, why don't you two give it a try?"

In the original storyline, Erigor attempted to cast a mass curse spell in the station's screening room, but was stopped by Erza and the others.

Now...

Since they've run into it, they're just unlucky!

"I'm fired up!"

Natsu, brimming with confidence, clashed his fists together, unleashing a fiery magic circle: "Let me take care of him by myself!"

bump!

Suddenly, a cement-colored whip lashed out at Natsu, sending him flying.

Dozens of mages stepped forward and stood before Ericgol, sneering, "We can't let you interfere with Lord Ericgol!"

"Eric Cole!"

Natsu's gaze was resolute, his entire body bursting with boiling flames, his magic power erupting as he charged forward.

Erza reached out and grasped, a red magic circle unfolded, and a longsword appeared in her hand.

Pointing his sword at the numerous dark mages ahead, he unleashed his killing intent: "I will slay you all!"

"Hahaha! You've got some nerve to say something like that!"

"Brothers, let's go! Let's show this chick what we're made of!"

A large group of mages, their faces sneer, surrounded him.

Lucy instinctively took two steps back, looked at the leisurely Acnologia and Irene, and asked urgently, "What should we do now?"

Acnologia raised an eyebrow slightly: "You mean these small fry? If it were Erza, she wouldn't be able to take them all down in a second."

"If you want to challenge yourself, you can try it out. Apart from that Eric Gor, no one can beat you."

He patted Lucy on the shoulder and encouraged her, "Be confident!"

Lucy was speechless. I wanted to be confident too, but there were just too many of them, and their expressions were so fierce that it was scary to look at.

She prefers to win without even having to fight.

Acnologia shouted to Erza, who was already wreaking havoc, "Leave a few for Lucy."

Erza didn't say anything, but she held back with her sword, intentionally or unintentionally driving the group toward her.

Eileen pointed her wand at the air, and a red light burst forth: "Crown of the Gods, all abilities enhanced!"

She turned to look at Lucy and laughed, "Go for it, Super Lucy, you're invincible now!"

Lucy's golden hair instantly exploded, and her entire body was filled with explosive power, transforming her into a Super Saiyan.

"Such immense power! Is this what enchanted magic is?"

Lucy screamed in disbelief; at that moment, she felt like she could punch a billion cows to death.

Without even using any Celestial Spirit magic, she stomped her foot so hard that the ground shook, then transformed into a golden whirlwind, kicking a Dark Mage a thousand meters away, where he was instantly killed.

With another punch, a mage coughed up blood and was sent flying, crashing into a wall.

With each punch and kick, numerous enemies were forced to retreat from the battlefield; the scene was one of brutally beating up children.

At this moment, Lucy was practically a god of war reincarnated!

Natsu was knocked to the ground by Erigor, and when he looked up and saw Lucy and Erza slaughtering everyone, he was completely stunned.

Is it really that outrageous?

Those dark mages were like bubbles in the hands of the two women.

At that moment, he suddenly felt so weak, maybe he should just call himself the Goddess Squad.
