Chapter 70
🕑 Added 2021-03-02 08:12:07 +0000 UTCEverything around was distorted and the dark streams of death magic circled in a strange cruel dance. Deep inside his body, Aidan felt a response and he quickly began to succumb to insanity!
- Damn it ... - he did not expect such a reaction at all ...
Suddenly, the chimera's body trembled, hundreds of magic runes giving off antiquity appeared in the air, black letters intertwined and immediately burst into the body of the monster, the earth trembled, and then the monster literally began to disintegrate before our eyes, the bloody debris quickly turned into dark particles, and then everything dark letters gathered in a sphere, enclosing every part of the monster. For a moment, the sphere landed on the wizard's palm, immediately penetrating his skin:
- Here ... - Aidan fell to one knee and exhaled heavily: - Oh, crap! I was able to absorb it ...
Scraps of many vague memories immediately flashed before his eyes, but they were quickly suppressed by the power of the spell. Aidan got up and finally the area brightened, the fog did not dissipate, but, the huge carcass of the monster completely disappeared.
After all that had happened, Aidan could only exhale heavily.
"Spooky magic ..." He just wanted to check, but it probably should have been done on a less useless piece of flesh. He received some scraps of the memory of a man and, apparently, he belonged to the White Harpies. Yes, and Vulcan was from the forest nearby. Aidan was also able to absorb some magic and vitality. But unlike simply replenishing his own ether reserves, as he could have done before thanks to the usual killer magic, eating ice or even touching directly to a person unable to fight back, Aidan could absorb energy for himself. But, this time, he directly felt how his reserve had grown, barely noticeable, but had grown, it also touches the vitality. He himself did not know that absorption magic was capable of such a thing! This is incredible power! This is almost immortality - the main thing is to absorb!
"Horror ..." - Grimacing, Aidan only sighed: - Now the splash can occur in just a month, I used too much force.
The problem quickly showed itself. Although, not to say that Aidan was now that worried. Knowing the right hour, he could get away from people. And how can you complain when you had magic in your hands that could give you the powers of some kind of vampire? Well, only immortality, but even the knowledge of others and memories could be absorbed and even increase your magical reserves!
“It looks like the true power of the spells is just for me to discover. I only know three deaths and three lives. I think you need to grasp them completely and already risk touching the grimoire.
With a leisurely pace, Aidan finally got close to the slain dark mage. Unfortunately, he was already dead, and Aidan would not have dared to use the Consumption spell anymore until the next appeal. The first force of death is Absorption and Deprivation of vitality. The first life force is Healing and Plant Manipulation. Therefore, with the dead, Aidan did not yet know what to do, he could partially absorb the aura of the dead hovering around them. But, she was so pathetic that it was not worth mentioning. For a Death Release wizard, only places with thousands of deaths could mean anything. Even after killing more than three hundred today, Aidan could barely feel the worthy energy in the air. And there was no point in eating it, he did not like it at all and caused rather a feeling of alertness. Before applying for a month, it is better not to meddle in this matter.
Picking up the magician's bone staff, Aidan examined it, and then decided to take it with him. Maybe someone will come in handy in the guild. He's not so bad, he could redirect magic to create magic attacks. Although, of course, this required skill.
The wizard himself did not matter, Aidan simply stepped over his corpse and headed for the lighthouse. He could still feel the life auras deep within.
- For this task they will have to fork out properly! - chuckling maliciously, the guy twirled the staff and slowly moved forward, the recent battle and new discoveries made him very happy.

One week later...
Smoothly hovering in the sky, the bird slipped into Magnolia and landed noisily on the roof of the Cathedral of Cardia, scattering its gray feathers all over the place. The thriving city and the multitude of inhabitants caught the attention of one of her eyes. The second swam in a pale veil, the bird barked, bowed its head and, as if looking for something, began to observe.
Meanwhile, in the only guild of this city, Fairy Tail.
- So, who said that I can't cope ?! - Mira asked with a challenge, sharply bursting into the guild.
- Ha ha ha! Just look who's back! - Macao exclaimed, noticing Aidan and Erza in the passage.
Finally, having finished the business, they returned, with the award everything turned out quite well. The many surviving members of the White Harpy were able to make up for everything. They were paid by a strange guy - the one who issued the task. Aidan didn't really remember his name, but he had money, and after the release of all the captives and return to the ghost town, everyone finally said goodbye.
How many fifteen lamas are there for three? Well, Aida was not a noble prince, so he took half of himself and gave the rest to his assistants. Of course, Erza didn't even want to take this, but when Mira was about to appropriate half of herself, dear Titania had no choice but to agree. So they came back without really talking about what had happened. Although Erza behaved strangely, and Mira did not quarrel with her, the guy decided not to take it into his head. Superfluous talk about death magic is useless. At least not now.
The return to the guild was, as usual, loud, cheerful and exuberant. Some got into a fight, and some, as always, got drunk. The next evening, Gray and Natsu dragged Aide off on a mission and did not return until three days later. Still, it was not a task of the highest complexity, but at least something. Aidan spends time with friends, had fun and lived quietly, for another three whole weeks. Cana, Wendy, even Lisanna with Elfman and Mira, he managed to complete the assignments three times. Time flew by quickly ...
It was to be expected that this was not for long, friends knew this, so they tried to stay away with him. For him, it really seemed to be something really important. For the first time in his life, he found a home and so many good people. Fairy Tail really turned out to be the same guild.
But, quiet times end one day ...
