The Beast King's massive body continued to approach Mirajane, and with each step it took, a loud 'bang' echoed across the ground.

As the Beast King drew closer, Mirajane's heart sank, and for the first time in her life, despair rose within her.

At this moment, after enduring the Beast King's final blow, her magic power was completely depleted, making it impossible for her to receive the Soul of Satan. Moreover, given her current physical condition, even if she could receive the transformation, she would not be a match for the Beast King.

Mirajane felt a sudden darkness before her eyes, and the Beast King's figure was already in front of her.

"Am I going to die here...?"

Mirajane stared at the Beast King in despair. His Beast King's thick arm was already raised high, and with this punch coming down, she couldn't imagine any other outcome but death.

And at that very moment—

"You're not allowed to touch My Sister!!"

A dark figure suddenly flashed by, appearing between the Beast King and Mirajane, arms outstretched, glaring angrily at the Beast King.

Elfman!

Upon seeing who it was, Mirajane was taken aback at first, then her expression changed drastically, and she shouted anxiously, "Elfman, what are you doing here! Let's go!"

"No!"

Elfman turned his head to look at Mirajane, his tone unusually firm.

"Elfman..."

Mirajane stared blankly at Elfman, somewhat incredulous. Was this still the same younger brother who always obeyed her every word?

From childhood, in her memory, Elfman was the kind of person who was not firm enough, even somewhat cowardly, which was completely inconsistent with his strong and tall figure. However, at this moment, Elfman's rugged face was filled with a strong stubbornness, and his eyes were even more determined than ever before.

Such a huge change before and after...

Was it because he wanted to protect her, his older sister...?

At this moment, Elfman's voice slowly rang out, reaching Mirajane's ears one by one:

"From childhood to adulthood, it has always been sister Mirajane who has protected Lisanna and me. No matter what difficulties we encounter, she is always the one who rushes to the front and prevents Lisanna and me from getting hurt in the slightest. This time is no different, but…"

"Sister Mirajane has fallen, so this time, it's my turn to protect you, Sister Mirajane!"

"A real man should protect his sister!!!"

By the end, Elfman had roared out, his voice booming like thunder, echoing deep into the mountains.

Not far from here, on a cliff, Lisanna was alone. Before Mirajane attacked the Beast King, she was worried that her weakest sister would be caught in the crossfire, so she had her wait here first.

"A real man should protect his sister!!" Elfman's voice boomed like thunder, echoing throughout the area.

"Brother Elfman…" Lisanna's cute little face was filled with deep worry. Then, her gaze became fixed, and a blue magic circle appeared under her feet. She transformed into a bluebird, flapped her wings, and flew into it.

at the same time.

Zeros, who was also deep in the mountains, looked in that direction. He had been able to feel the collision of two powerful magical energies emanating from within. However, just now, the two powerful magical energies changed in an instant.

First, one of the magical powers disappeared, then suddenly returned, and then the other powerful magical power disappeared as well, leaving only one of the two powerful magical powers.

As he sensed the disappearance of that powerful, somewhat familiar magic, Zeros seemed to have already guessed the outcome. He muttered, "Idiot woman!"

After saying that, he turned around and walked in the opposite direction. However, as soon as he took a step, he stopped. A sweet and lovely face appeared in his mind, and the clear voice seemed to reappear in his ears.

"Heh, fine, I can't let this 'brother' call go unanswered." Zeros muttered to himself, then turned and walked towards the source of the sound. "Be grateful you have a good sister, you idiot woman..."
