Chapter 55. Capricorn.
- I ... - looking at the serious look of Eros and comprehending his words, Mira lowered her gaze.
- I see, finally, it dawned on you, - sighing heavily, he took the pressure off her, - Never do such stupid things again, because if in my place there was a master of another guild, you would definitely not have left whole, and now go back to your guild.
She slowly got up and looked at the titan with a frown, hit him in the face ... She tried to hit, but Eros easily caught his fist.
- Peace ...
- I will not rest until I take revenge on you! - Shouted the girl in his face and turned and walked towards the exit from the guild, while mumbling something to herself with fury.
"Eh ... Another extra hemorrhoids." - Titan thought with annoyance, turning to the frozen children, - I don't understand, it seems it's not time for lunch and why did you all get up? Kagura, lift everyone's weight by five kilograms, since everyone has so much energy that during training they would also eavesdrop on other people's conversations, - Eros looked at the pensive Kagura, who nodded languidly and waved her hand towards the guys.
- Teacher, I'll go then, I want to meet a friend.
- Of course, thanks for your help, until the evening.
She nodded and quickly left the site, but the pressure did not disappear.
***
In the evening, Kagura returned and he began her individual training. Eros was not going to distribute her to some team, but decided to leave her in his for now. Nevertheless, during these three years she became very strong, and he got used to her.
During his journey, he was able to get many new ideas in the power of Gravity and Eros decided to teach it, as well as to learn something new himself. Still, Kagura has a real talent for this magic.
As Eros watched the girl try to concentrate her strength at one point, he felt a warmth near his chest.
"It…?" - he took out a small golden key from his inner pocket, - "Key of Capricorn ... What's going on?" - trying to contact him, he felt as if something was blocking it.
Frowning, he tried to recall the spirit, but it didn't give in to any.
"What's going on?" - the next moment, he began to pour into the keys just a huge amount of magical power, with only one "order" to recall the spirit. From this, the key in Eros's hand began to become covered with cracks and with every second they became more and more ...
- Teacher, something happened? Kagura's worried voice sounded beside him.
- There is nothing, just someone is trying to prevent me from recalling the spirit ... - after a moment a satisfied smile appeared on his face, when he felt the intervention of another force, in no way inferior to him, - "The old man finally decided to intervene?" - thought Eros, feeling that Capricorn fell into the world of spirits.
- Teacher ...?
- Already nothing, go on ... - she nodded in bewilderment and again continued to concentrate the magical power at one point ...
As soon as she resumed her training, Eros took out the connection Lacrima and gave magical powers, she lit up.
- Bero, can you hear me? - the one with whom Eros contacted was Lucy's teacher in Celestial Spirit magic. He was an elderly man with a long nose and a large gray mustache. Beraud wore a large pink cap with a yellow heart pattern on the front, as well as a long blue robe.
- Oh ... Is it really Eros, you haven't contacted me for a long time ... - a cheerful, elderly voice from lacrima sounded.
- Yes, I wanted to know how you are doing, how is Lucy?
- The mistress is making great strides, I just can't help but rejoice, all in mother ...
- Really ... Listen, I wanted to ask you where Capricorn is now?
There was silence for a moment.
- He ... left the house of Heartfilia four hours ago ... Nervous and told him not to look, I was just about to contact you, - with a sad voice, said Bero.
For a moment, remembering something, a steel glitter appeared in Eros's gaze.
- Is there anything about Zoldeo?
- No, after the murder of Grammy, he disappeared and did not appear again.
- Well thank you.
- What are you, I'm only glad to help ... This is the least I can do for taking care of my mistress.
- Then I disconnect, but if something happens, contact me.
After finishing the conversation, Eros sat down on the bench and thoughtfully watched Kagura's training.
Two hours later, having said goodbye to the girl, he was left alone and took out the key of Capricorn. But, Eros, I don't even need to do something, a golden magic circle appeared in front of him from which a Capricorn emerged, with an appearance resembling a goat. He had a rather thick goatee and legs that resemble goat hooves. A small white tail emanated from the lower back. A pair of black tinted sunglasses covered his eyes. He was wearing a butler's outfit.
- Mister Eros, thank you for your salvation, - he said, bowing in an even tone.
- Not at all, tell me what happened and how they managed to defeat you?
Since Eros became his master, the power of Capricorn was at his peak, but still he lost and this very alarmed Eros. Still, at its peak, the fortitude was equal to an S-rank mage.
- Yes, it happened two days ago. I began to feel that someone was watching the mansion with bad intentions. And having overestimated my strength, I decided to cope with this problem myself and not disturb the young master, "he said with regret.
- And as far as I can see, you lost.
The latter nodded, bowing his head.
- I overestimated my strength.
- Who was that?
- Among them I recognized only one ... It was Zoldeo.
- Zoldeo? - Eros asked in surprise, to which he nodded, - Why would he attack you?
- I cannot know this, he only repeated that he was going to avenge the death of Lady Leila and he wanted to subdue me and kill everyone in the mansion using me.
- Is that how he lost his mind? .. But how could he defeat you?
- I would not have lost to him if it was a one-on-one battle, but he had allies in the person of two powerful magicians using ancient magic.
- Ancient, - Eros extended with interest with shining eyes, - From this place in more detail.
- Yes, one of them used the magic of creation, with the help of which he could translate into reality any things he thinks about, the second used the magic of the God Slayer.
"The Slayer of Gods ... About this I found records ... Stronger than the Slayers of the Dragons, but this magic has long been lost, I haven't found anything about it, only records about the magic itself, nothing more." - thought Eros, looking at Capricorn, - "Still, this is important information, apparently someone was able to find this magic and teach that person, and the second is also not bad, but I'm not interested in it." - a smile appeared on his lips, - Did they say something about their belonging?
- Not.
- What about Zoldeo.
- Dead, apparently his spell did not work correctly and instead of subduing me, he almost merged with me, but thanks to you, the King of Spirits noticed this and called me back to the spirit world, where he destroyed Zoldeo. Also, the King of Spirits, conveyed gratitude to you for saving my life, and also invites you to visit the world of spirits when you have free time, - Capricorn took out a small white bracelet from his inner pocket, - With the help of it, the space of the world will not harm you spirits and you can call the Virgo at any moment, who will carry you.
- Tell him: "Thank you for the invitation and when I have free time, I will visit the spirit world."
- Thank you for your positive answer, - he said, bowing again, respectfully.
- Well, since this case has been settled, can you describe these magicians to me?
- And another request, - Capricorn looked at the key, - Let me take the key to fix it in the world of spirits, - the titan, without hesitation, threw the key to him, - I apologize for the inconvenience, it will take no more than half an hour in your world.
- Come on ...
After describing both attackers, he returned to the spirit world. Eros, looking at the description of these two, tried to remember who they were, but no one came to his mind. Therefore, he decided to postpone it for now, and later ask the guildmates about them, maybe who saw them.
***
When Eros was heading towards the guild, he was blocked by two children, very similar to one acquaintance who attacked him today. The first was a girl of about twelve with short white hair and clear, bright blue eyes. She was wearing a pink dress with a burgundy collar and a pair of simple sandals. The second was a boy, a little older than the girl, he had all the same facial features as her, but only his eyes were dark in color. He was wearing a blue suit with a red bow tie and a pair of black boots.
- I apologize! - both exclaimed, bowing their heads.
- Who are you and what to forgive you for? Eros asked in bewilderment.
- We apologize for the behavior of our sister, please, forgive her, she is not bad!
"I don't understand who you are?"
- We are Mira's brother and sister.
- That's how, but you have nothing to apologize for, - with a soft smile, he patted both kids on the head, - I don't take offense at her, - remembering what Ultear did for the first month ... Mira was a saint compared to her.
As soon as these thoughts entered his head, the titan's gaze wavered.
- Truth? - Seeing those innocent blue eyes, Eros would not say "no" even under the gun.
- Of course, so run home, I think she'll worry about you.
- Thank you, uncle!
- Not at all, but now home!
- Yes!
As soon as the children disappeared from his sight, he went in the direction of the guild, while muttering out loud:
- If one bad girl wants to become stronger and defeat me, then let her come to the training ground tomorrow, but in peace ... I don't want these kids to come to me again and ask for forgiveness for their stupid sister ... - these words were addressed the man who was hiding in the alley worrying about his family and experiencing wild embarrassment.
