Looking at Bobo's terrifying arms, Lucy and Gray wanted to say something, but they couldn't.
"I can see Karna Island!"Bobo suddenly shouted, attracting all the eyes of Gray and Lucy to the small island in front of them.
"The island of Garna is ahead. I can't go any further, or I'll be cursed again!"
Perhaps because of Raphael's presence, Bobo didn't disappear directly like in the original book and used the huge waves to push everyone to the island.
"Okay, we are magicians! Don't worry, uncle, we will definitely solve this terrible curse!"
Gray and Lucy clenched their fists and made a solemn promise to their uncle.
"Well, then it's up to you Gray!"Raphael stood up, carried the dizzy Natsu, and nodded to him with a half-smile as he passed by Bobo.
Bobo instantly broke out in a cold sweat, and was instantly glad that he didn't treat them roughly as planned. Go ashore
"Well! Watch me!"
"ICEMAKE·Floor!"
Gray nodded, walked to the bow, and a burst of white smoke flashed across his hands, and he activated the ice shaping magic.
The sea surface began to freeze rapidly, and a runway made of ice emerged directly, connecting to the island.
"Gray, your magic is particularly pleasing to the eye every time I see it. This magic is very free!"
While skating on the ice after bidding farewell to Bobo, Raphael said to Gray with admiration.
Raphael would not admit that he was envious. After all, it doesn't matter whether he is strong or not. Being handsome is a lifelong matter. It's a pity. He only has ultimate strength and defense!
"No, I think your magic is the best, Raphael, because there is no enemy you can't defeat. If I had your power, then..."
Gray shook his head, as if he remembered something, with a trace of pain and regret in his eyes.
Raphael looked up at him, shook his head and continued to slide forward in silence.
Soon, everyone finally stepped onto the island.
"Finally, we are here!"
Lucy, whose legs were a little weak from gliding, cried with joy as she stepped on the soft sand. God knows how she got here just now.
The harpy, who had been flying in the sky and teasing Lucy, said that he didn't know either.
""Ahhh! I'm back to full health!"
As soon as he landed, Raphael threw Natsu to the ground. The next second, Natsu stood up like a carp, full of energy and ready to fight!
"The environment here... feels so primitive!"
Lucy looked around and found that the plants here were surprisingly large. Even a leaf was twice as big as hers. It was almost as big as the Baruga of Duke Abar's time.
""Let's go, I see a village ahead, our client should be there!" Raphael called everyone to move forward.
Soon, they arrived in front of a village. The village was surrounded by thick wooden stakes nearly 20 meters high, and the tops of the stakes were all sharpened. On the gate of the village, there was a sign with the words"No Entry" nailed on it.
"No entry allowed, what should I do?"
"Why don't you ask Natsu to just break it and rush in!"
"Awww! I agree!"
"no!"
Lucy directly stopped Raphael's plan, stopped Natsu's imminent move, and glared at Gray.
Gray: ???
At this moment, two figures appeared on the wall, and shouted at them:"You guys Who is he!"
Lucy, who had seen Raphael and the others being unreliable, quickly stood up, raised her head with a smile, spread her hands and said sweetly to them:"We are the magicians of Fairy Tail. We accepted your commission to solve your problem. The question comes!"
"So this is the mission you accepted, but just in case, please show us your seals!"
Perhaps because Raphael accepted the mission, the two people on the city wall did not have the doubts in the original book, but still carried out the confirmation check as usual.
After checking everyone's seals, the two people waved directly inside, and the heavy and huge door began to rise slowly.
Behind the door stood a group of people in robes, and the one standing in the front was a little old man holding a scepter.
He walked forward and lifted his robe directly to the crowd, and the villagers behind him took off their robes one by one. Seeing that they all had more or less demonic symbols, Gray and others were stunned for a moment.
"I am Moka, the leader of this village. You have seen, too, the painful curse we have been subjected to, and not only us, but even animals such as cats and dogs have become demonized!"
Village Chief Moka raised his demonized hands and confided his pain to everyone in Fairy Tail. At the end of the sentence, the children behind him couldn't help but cry.
The atmosphere at the scene instantly became gloomy.
Gray fell silent. After a while, he continued to ask in a low voice:"Have you never thought about finding a doctor? Is it possible that this is just a disease? What is your basis for the curse?
Moka shook his head and sighed:"It's useless. We have gone to more than a dozen doctors, and they all diagnosed us with no disease.""
"As for the reason for thinking it's a curse..."Moka looked up at the sky,"That's because we think it's very likely related to the [Moon Magic]!"
"The magic of the moon?"Lucy asked puzzledly.
"Our island is illuminated by the moon at night, and the ancients used the moonlight to develop and store it, so that the whole island would be as bright and beautiful as the moon."
Moka recalled the beauty of the past, and a trace of nostalgia flashed in his eyes, and the next second, it turned directly into fear.
"But a few years ago, the moon turned purple! We are affected by the purple moon. When it appears, we will become another person.…"
As they were talking, the moon appeared on time, and everyone looked up and found that it was indeed a purple moon.
Suddenly, Moka and the people in the village began to wail, and everyone turned around and saw that they were undergoing inhuman changes, one by one, as if fading from human appearance to the appearance of demons!
"How...how could it be?..."Lucy covered her mouth in surprise, Gray and Natsu also looked incredulous.
"So this is why we think that the moonlight is the reason why we become like this!" Moka took a step back and said to everyone,"When the purple moon comes out, we all become ugly like this, and we can't recover until dawn."
"But this is not a complete recovery, during this period our souls have been constantly devoured by this evil!" Moka looked at everyone sadly,"So even though we have regained our human form this morning, we still have some demonic features left, and some of those who have been completely devoured will always be in the form of demons, we can only... bear the pain and kill them!"
"Why... why!"Lucy was surprised. She didn't expect that the final result would be like this.
"Do we have to kill them just because they can't transform back?"
Natsu yelled at Moka angrily.
"Do you think we want to? We also tried to imprison him at the beginning, but it turned out to be like that, nothing could imprison him!"Moka also shouted at Natsu, and then took out a photo from his arms,"I had no choice but to kill my own son. I was also in pain! Do you understand!"
"That... that is..."
Lucy and Natsu saw clearly the appearance of the person in the photo in front of them, and were instantly shocked, because that person was Bobo who had just pulled them over.
"But we also yesterday..."Lucy was about to say something when she was stopped by Raphael. Lucy looked at Raphael in confusion.
"That might be a ghost, he has been wandering the sea looking for someone to solve!"Gray explained to Lucy in a low voice beside him.
"Ghost?" Lucy looked at Gray in confusion."But..."
Gray shook his head and looked at the village chief Moka seriously:"There is something I have never dared to say. I looked back before landing on the island, and I only saw the small boat on the sea. The Bobo had disappeared."
"!!!"
Lucy looked at Gray in surprise, and then at Raphael who said nothing, making her tremble with fear.
Raphael also trembled, but he was suppressing his laughter. After all, he knew that these were actually demons, but they had been magically amnesiac, and Bobo was not a so-called ghost. He just recovered after being out of range. Just the devil of memory
"That's why we decided to use all the remaining resources in the village to issue a commission, hoping that some powerful magicians could help solve this problem. Otherwise, if this continues, we will all be devoured by demons."Moka lowered his head and said sadly and desperately.
"I will never allow this to happen!"Natsu solemnly made a vow to Moka!
"So how do you need us to solve it?"Lucy finally recovered from her fear of seeing ghosts, and looked at Moka and asked doubtfully.
"Since we are like this because of this moon, the only way is..."
Moka raised the scepter in his hand and pointed at the moon
"Destroy this unlucky moon!"
