Fairy: What do you call borrowing power?Is this unknown?

Erza raised her sword again to stop, and the sound of metal and iron clanging seemed to be mixed with other voices.

It was a tiny crack on his sharp claws.

"How could it be..." Minerva, who noticed this, suddenly widened her eyes.

"Come to my senses, Minerva!!" Erza held a knife in both hands.

He increased his strength again.

In the previous several collisions, Minerva's sharp claws had already accumulated irreversible injuries.

Erza's slash was like the straw that broke the camel's back.

Under Minerba's unbelievable gaze, the sharp claws that belonged exclusively to the devil shattered.

He showed his hands inside.

The powerful force directly knocked Minerba into the air, and the body that soared in mid-air seemed very stiff.

boom----

Minerva slammed heavily on the wall behind her.

There was a violent roar.

"How...how did this happen??" He clenched his teeth tightly.

Minerva raised her head, her bloodshot pupils stared at Erza.

"Little girl... the little girl should be the strongest!!"

Minerva screamed, as if trying to dispel the fear in her heart.

Regardless of the injuries on her body, Minerba took a step forward and approached Erza again.

Looking at Minerba at this moment, Erza thrust the long sword in her hand into the ground.

"What the hell are you..." Erza raised her fist.

"What are you fighting for!!!"

Anger seemed to make her even more powerful, and she turned her head to avoid Minerva's attack.

Then the clenched fist smashed down again.

boom----

Minerva only felt a sharp pain coming from her body, and her cheeks were in firm contact with the ground.

Cracks like spider webs also appeared on the originally hard ground.

The dizziness she felt after being hit head-on made her thoughts seem to be in a trance.

【a shame! 】

【It's really sad, why is your strength so weak? ! 】

Suddenly, she seemed to hear those words again.

That was the sound that made me fear for a whole childhood.

It was the voice of the man named Germaine.

At the same time, he was also the former president of Sword Biting Tiger, and also his... father.

When she was a child, Mineba was very weak, so weak that her father Germaine couldn't stand it.

In her memory, she cried and apologized because her strength did not meet Germaine's requirements.

However, what he got in exchange was not relief from his father.

It's scolding, beating, and despair!

[Don't beg for forgiveness, don't cry! 】

[Since you are my daughter, you must become strong, and the weak must disappear, even if you are my daughter! 】

ruthless!indifferent!

This was the only emotion that Minerva felt in her father when she was a child.

The ruthless Germaine frantically demands Minerva's strength, and at the same time destroys Minerva's humanity.

Even for this reason, she was forced to personally kill the master who was defeated by Minerba.

Despite Minerva's constant intercession, Germain's order was not changed.

He even killed the master who taught Minerba's magic with his own hands when he saw that Minerva was afraid to do it.

At that moment, Minerva's three views completely collapsed.

However, this is a sign of cowardice in Germain's eyes.

Facing such a cowardly daughter, Germain left her alone in the wild beasts.

In his opinion, the weak who only know how to cry have only one way to die in such a jungle.

Minerva's pleas and cries were ignored.

Because Germain needs a strong man.

It only needs a strong man who can walk out of the jungle with frequent beasts alone.

"I don't want to go back to that time again!!"

Minerva stood up abruptly, that delicate face looked so ferocious now.

"I must... must become strong!!"

"Only if I'm strong, I won't go back to that time!!"

Minerva roared furiously, as if she wanted to completely dispel the painful past.

"I must become stronger!!"

She waved her sharp claws, as if she wanted to wipe away all obstacles in front of her eyes.

"Give me---wake up!!"

However, louder than Minerva was the sound of Erza's fist hitting her cheek.

The huge force directly knocked Minerva into the air.

"Although I don't agree with everything you did in the Damo Dou Yanwu, I can understand it,"

"Isn't all of this... for the tiger bitten by the sword?"

Erza murmured while maintaining her punching posture.

The body of Mineba who was knocked down on the ground trembled slightly.

"Mineba..." She raised her fist.

"Look, this fist that crushed you is crying! What's the point of this fight?"

Erza moved her steps.

Eyes fixed on Mineba, her emotions were extremely complicated.

Just like before, Mineba wanted to pull herself out of the joy.

At this moment, Erza also wants to pull Minerba out of the darkness.

She could see that Minerva was not a bad person.

It's just that he went astray on the road of chasing power.

The wizards of Fairy Tail never sit idly by this kind of person.

She came to Mineba and murmured:

"Is personal strength really that important to you?"

These words seemed to have completely defeated Minerva's inner defense.

It made her body start to tremble.

Yes, she has always known.

She is very weak, she used to think that the darkness could not corrode herself.

You can even use darkness to achieve your own strength.

However, she was wrong.

The moment she was forcibly taken to the gate of Hades by Kuanghua, she lost completely.

"Use your hands...to kill me..." Minerva slowly raised her head.

His face was full of helplessness and sadness.

"Because the little girl is really too weak..."

"It is precisely because of weakness that it will be eroded by darkness..."

She seemed to have no strength left to stand up.

Looking at his trembling hands: "This body that is neither human nor ghost has no right to live."

"So... please..."

Ignoring Minerva's pleading, Erza bent down.

He reached out and took Minerva's palm.

"You are yourself." Her words echoed in Mineba's ears.

"Somewhere in this world, there must be someone waiting for you to go back, don't forget this!"

Her voice was very soft, but it tightly lingered in Mineba's mind.

She raised her head involuntarily.

Some expectant eyes looked at Erza.
