Chereads / Fairy Tail: Strongest Creature / Chapter 5 - Meeting Mirajane

Chapter 5 - Meeting Mirajane

Su Yan allocated his latest 100 attribute points carefully:

- **80 points** to Conqueror's Haki

- **15 points** to Armament Haki

- **5 points** to Observation Haki

After realizing he was indeed in the world of *Fairy Tail,* Su Yan adjusted his attribute distribution strategy to fit this new environment, intending to continue with this balance for the foreseeable future.

With these points, his fusion with Kaido's physique increased by another 1%, bringing his overall fusion level to 3%. Although he was young in appearance, Su Yan now felt a terrifying strength coursing through him, as if he could take down monsters with ease. The immense power felt exhilarating.

Just then, a sharp voice snapped him out of his thoughts.

"Hey! Your name is Su Yan, right?"

Su Yan turned to see a girl with striking silver hair, tied back with a purple bow adorned by a skull ornament. She wore a purple vest and skirt, her fierce expression contradicting her otherwise cute features. He recognized her instantly: Mirajane, the future poster girl of the Fairy Tail guild. However, this wasn't the gentle, smiling Mirajane he remembered—this was the feisty, rebellious Mirajane.

"How dare you!" she huffed. "You made me faint with that move of yours!"

"Uh… sorry about that," Su Yan replied, scratching his head. "I'm still getting used to my abilities."

Mirajane scowled. "Enough excuses. Fight me! I'll show you who's really the strongest wizard in Fairy Tail!"

Mirajane wasn't going to let this slide. She'd been watching the commotion in the guild, ready to jump in, when she had suddenly blacked out. She had been vying for the title of strongest wizard alongside Erza, but now this newcomer had shown up, knocking everyone out in a single move and undermining her reputation. And to make matters worse, he was her age.

"Mirajane's challenging Su Yan?"

"That's so like Mira! She doesn't back down from anyone!" 

Su Yan sighed and raised a hand dismissively. "Look, I don't fight girls."

Mirajane's glare sharpened. "So you think girls are weak?!"

If there was one thing Mirajane hated, it was boys who underestimated her. Other than Gildarts and maybe Laxus, no one in the guild could match her strength. Laxus, a few years older than her, might be stronger now, but she was sure she could surpass him if they were the same age. And now, a boy her own age was brushing her off.

Erza, who had been watching quietly, perked up at this. She, too, had been knocked out by Su Yan's aura and wanted to challenge him, but she held back for now. She'd find a chance to spar with him later, perhaps when he was settled in. After all, it wouldn't be very welcoming to bombard the newcomer with challenges on his first day.

Su Yan glanced back at Mirajane, trying to explain. "It's not that I think girls are weak; it's just… I'm not used to this much power yet. I might hurt you without meaning to."

Mirajane's eyes flashed, a dark smirk forming on her lips. "Afraid you'll kill me with a single punch, huh?"

"Uh… well, yeah." Su Yan nodded, not entirely kidding.

The guild fell silent. Su Yan's blunt admission shocked everyone.

Macao, who had been nursing his pride ever since his earlier fainting episode, couldn't stand it any longer. But Mirajane, who was even more hotheaded, had already snapped.

Without warning, her magic flared up as she shouted, "Take Over: Satan Soul!"

Dark magic energy burst from her body, transforming her into her demon form, complete with horns and claws. She clenched her fist, charging it with dark energy, and launched herself at Su Yan.

"Uh-oh!" Makarov exclaimed, realizing the situation was escalating too quickly. He moved to stop the fight, but it was too late.

Su Yan's instincts kicked in. In an instant, he channeled his Armament Haki into his fist and met her punch head-on.

*Boom!!!*

The impact shook the guild as their fists collided.

"Aaagh!"

Mirajane let out a cry as she was knocked back, crashing through a nearby wall, leaving a sizable hole.

The guild members gaped in astonishment.

Su Yan's face fell. *Great,* he thought, *I didn't mean to hit that hard!* He had reacted instinctively, without time to gauge his strength, and ended up unleashing far more power than he intended.

But before he could worry further, Mirajane reappeared, flying back toward him. She released her transformation, clutching her arm, which trembled slightly from the impact.

"Mira!" her siblings shouted, rushing over to check on her. 

"Mira, are you alright?" asked Elfman, his voice full of concern.

Mirajane grit her teeth, hiding her discomfort as best as she could. "I'm… fine. It's just… a scratch."

Despite her fierce words, she winced, unable to fully move her arm. The guild members looked on in a mix of awe and sympathy.

Su Yan sighed with relief that she wasn't seriously hurt. "I told you, my power's hard to control right now."

Mirajane glared at him, but a small smile tugged at the corner of her lips, despite herself. "Alright, Su Yan, you win this time. But don't think I'm giving up."

Makarov finally stepped in, looking between the two of them. "Alright, alright, enough fighting. Su Yan's new, and he still has much to learn. Mirajane, there's no shame in having room to grow. Besides, we're all part of Fairy Tail here."

The guild cheered, easing the tension. Though Su Yan hadn't exactly planned to make his debut this way, he felt the warmth of the guild's acceptance in their cheers and smiles.

As everyone resumed their activities, Mirajane shot Su Yan a final look of determination. "This isn't over, Su Yan."

He smirked, nodding. "I wouldn't expect anything less."

From across the room, Erza watched, her interest in Su Yan piqued further. She knew this newcomer was powerful, but it seemed his potential went far beyond her first impression. One thing was certain: Fairy Tail was going to get a lot more interesting with Su Yan around.
