The son of the dragon who walks

Chapter 116 The Devil’s Curse

On the deck, Charles was lying on a deck chair, with a parasol above his head to block the blazing sun.

Next to him, a middle-aged man wearing an eyepatch rubbed his hands and looked at Charles with a flattering expression.

Ciel couldn't help but feel how powerful the emotion of fear was.

Even though they have never seen what the curse of Karna Island looks like, and there are no victims of the curse, these fishermen just don’t want to get close to Karna Island.

Ciel had no choice but to fly over by himself. But halfway through the flight, Ciel discovered that it was easy to lose his way on the sea, even with the sun as a reference.

And why Ciel is in this state now is because although Ciel did not discover Karna Island, he did find a pirate ship.

Ciel will not be as gentle to these pirates as he is to the fishermen! Even if they don't want to go to Karna Island, they have no right to refuse.

The one-eyed pirate said: "Two adults, according to what you said, we will arrive at Karna Island soon!"

Charles raised his eyelids and glanced at them and said: "For the sake of your obedience, I will let you go this time! But you should find a serious job!"

Through Qi, Charles discovered that these pirates did not have much sense of sin, and at most they were at the level of street gangsters.

Maybe it's because they just became pirates, or maybe it's because they are just a bunch of idiots who have never done anything bad like serious pirates should do.

This is why Ciel only threatened them but did not actually take action against them.

Ciel stood up from the recliner, and the outline of Karna Island appeared in his sight.

With his wings of flame spread out from behind, Ciel said to Gray: "We are one day behind Natsu. I'm afraid something might happen, so I'll go to the client first. Just wait until the ship docks and then go there!"

The selected plot is that Gray and Natsu land on the island together, and then discover that Gray's senior brother Leon wants to use the magic ritual of the Moon Drop to lift the seal of the demon Deliora in the Book of Zeref.

But because of Gray, the first battle didn't happen until the night of the second day after landing on the island.

But this time... how could that guy Natsu wait all day long before taking action?

Because Ciel got lost, he landed on the island at least half a day later than Natsu. So Ciel was worried about what might happen.

Ciel is not worried about Leon and his gang, Natsu is strong enough to deal with them. But the problem is that there is Urrudia beside Leon.

Urutia means Tears of Uru. Uru is the master who teaches Gray Ice's modeling magic, and is also the mage who uses the forbidden magic "Absolute Freeze" to seal Deliora.

Urrutia is Uru's biological daughter. She is born with powerful magic power. It is precisely because of this that the institute deceived Uru and detained her as an experimental subject.

At the same time, it also caused a misunderstanding between mother and daughter, causing Urrutia to join the Dark Guild out of resentment towards her mother.

Urrutia possesses the same lost magic as Dragon Slayer Magic - the Arc of Time.

Even the current Ciel has to face time magic with caution, not to mention that Urrutia still masters the ice modeling magic that is not as good as the Grayleon brothers.

Although Urrutia would not deal with Natsu seriously in order to hide his identity, Ciel was worried that Natsu's annoying personality would cause trouble.

Ciel could sense that most of the island was wilderness, so he flew towards the place with the most breath.

But as soon as Charles approached the village, he saw a special creature in the mid-air above the village.

It was a huge rat nearly ten meters long, and the rat was wearing lace clothes.

The most surprising thing is that the mouse's tail stands up and rotates like a propeller in the air, allowing the big mouse to fly directly in mid-air.

The big rat also carried a large bucket under its paws. Just by smelling the smell, Charles could guess that there was definitely nothing safe inside.

Charles also saw three people standing on the back of the mouse. These three should be Leon's followers.

That they would appear here means that things have just begun. The worst situation that Ciel thought has not yet occurred.

However, seeing the huge rat trying to topple the thing he was carrying, Ciel couldn't bear it anymore.

"The Roar of the Fire Dragon!"

As soon as the bluish-purple viscous liquid fell, a pillar of fire flew over and engulfed it entirely.

The three people on the back of the mouse looked at Charles, all showing unhappy expressions.

But Charles's expression was gloomier than theirs, so gloomy that it was scary.

"I don't care what you plan to do on this island at all, but you are really unpleasant to involve innocent villagers!"

The three of them were startled by Ciel's expression, but they quickly reacted.

The man with thick eyebrows said: "Is the guy I haven't seen just now the reinforcements of the fire dragon? It's really troublesome!"

The girl among the three said: "Lord Emperor Zero's order is to deal with all those who hinder him. If you don't hurry up, you will lose Lord Zero's love!"

Another man with a feline face said: "It's just one more person, it only takes five more minutes!"

The girl pointed at Charles and said: "Angelica, kill him for me!"

Angelica is the name of the big mouse he stepped on, and the girl is Shirley, the former magician of the Scales of the Snake Princess. Her magic is puppet magic that can control all objects except human beings.

The giant rat roared and turned around to rush towards Ciel.

Charles didn't move, just raised his head and looked into Angelica's eyes.

The giant rat froze as it rushed forward, because it saw a pair of eyes that turned into vertical pupils, and also saw the roaring shadow of the dragon behind Ciel.

Animals' perception of danger is much stronger than that of humans, especially due to differences in life levels. The fear of facing the creatures at the top of the food chain directly made Angelica's heart stop.

It didn't matter that it was so stunned. The problem was that its whole body froze and even its tail stopped wagging.

It was not like Harpy. The wings behind it were just a representation of flying magic and were not really used for flying. As soon as its tail stopped, it fell directly.

Ciel originally planned to fight them off, but seeing them screaming and falling down, he lost the motivation to catch up.

Ciel turned around and flew towards the village. Before he landed, he saw Natsu and Lucy sneaking away.

In fact, Natsu noticed Shirley and the others when they approached, and when he saw the pillar of fire that relieved the crisis, he naturally guessed that Ciel had arrived.

Of course they wanted to run away due to their guilty conscience, but as soon as Natsu and Lucy turned around to find a place to hide, someone grabbed them tightly by the shoulders.

"Hey! Where are you two planning to go?"

Natsu and Lucy had cold sweat on their faces and turned to look at Ciel tremblingly.

Natsu held on and waved, "Hey! Ciel, what a coincidence!"

Ciel punched Natsu and made a big bump on the head, and said angrily: "What a coincidence! I came here specifically for you."

Lucy originally wanted to speak, but she stopped when she saw Ciel's angry look. Taking two steps back, Lucy began to deceive herself and pray that Ciel wouldn't see her.

Habi did even more amazingly. He hid directly behind Ciel and said, "Ciel, it was the two of them who forced me!"

Lucy couldn't bear it anymore and accused Habi: "Traitor!"

Ciel sighed and said: "I'm really convinced by you! The punishment for you doing S-level tasks without permission will be decided by the president when you get back. Now tell me what's going on here!"
