Fairy Tail: Transformation Mage - Volume 1 Chapter 54 Kindness

Damian then along with his trusted mages and soldiers started started treating the poisoned soldiers with his antidote and asked the rest of the mages from Adroelia to look after the supply storage.

After all that was done he went to the tent where the meeting would start and saw quite a few people inside the tent.

All the people in the ten when they saw Damian entering the tent gave a nod to which Damian gave a nod in return as well.

A of them then gathered around a table with a map of the battlefield on it and the general from Dragonof said, “I once again apologize for the the commotion that I caused earlier.”

Damian shook his head and said, “No need to worry about that. Now onto the more important topic General-”

The man in the armour who had blond hair widend his eyes and said, “Ah, you can call me Christopher, I am the general of the army of Dragonof and these are the heads of their respective knight and mage squads.”

The rest of the people from Dragonof gave a Bow to Damian seeing which he nodded and said, “Fine then General Christopher, I am Ian the mage head from Adroelia.” and gave a short bow as well.

The general nodded and then started to explain the situation of the battlefield to him along with Rung who also got into his general mode and then started to discuss the situation and problems that they had on the battlefield.

Damian who heard their situation was calm and thought about the scenarios that might happen on the battlefield but then he suddenly felt something near him and narrowed his eyes.

He enhanced his senses and once he felt where the presence he felt earlier was, got up from his seat startling everyone.

He then took out his sword making all of them shocked by this thinking that he was about to attack them but then he used his sword to pierce into his own shadow and just after that all of them heard a loud screech.

“Hey stalker, I don’t like people spying on me. So why don’t you come out of my shadow so that we can have a nice and long ‘chat’.” and then used his enhancement magic to reduce the person who was hiding in his shadow to reduce his pain resistance but didn’t notice anything and said, “So you don’t feel pain while you are in there, eh. RUNG GET A TORCH HERE AND LIGHT UP NEAR THIS GUY!!! I WANNA SEE WHETHER THIS PERSON CAN BE IN A SHADOW ONCE THE AREA IS LIT UP!!!”

Rung nodded and then got one torch that was present outside the tent and brought it near the shadow.

The shadow when got close to the light tried to merge into Rung’s shadow and then run away but Damian had already placed a binding enchantment on the mage who was hiding in the shadow.

The person in the shadow was now totally troubled and cursed himself for trying to merge with Damian’s shadow, he who was now caught by the mage head and the rest of the higher-ups in the army wanted to run away but somehow was not able to move his body. He really wanted to shout out and complain to let him go but he didn’t want to blow up his cover as the people in there still don’t know his who he was and them knowing the voice would be very inconvenient for him.

Damian who noticed that the now only a small black spot had no intentions of coming out sighed and said, “So be it, Generals did you brought the list of the soldiers that I asked you earlier about?”

Both Rung and Christopher were a bit surprised by his question but still nodded their heads.

Damian gave a nod as well and said, “Gather up and take an attendance of all the soldiers who are still alive in the army. Make sure to cross out all those who you found dead, or as a traitor already. NOW MOVE!!!”

All of them have a salute to Damian and did just as he instructed. All the soldiers and mages were called and gathered to a place and an attendance which took a full hour was taken by the squad leaders that they belonged to.

During all then Damian just sat down while drinking a cup of tea and holding the person in the shadow from running away by placing the binding enchantment on the shadow while also keeping a lit up torch on top of it.

Once the attendance was taken all the squad leaders and gathered around Damian and started giving their reports.

“ALL PRESENT IN MY SQUAD, SIR!!!”

“ALL PRESENT IN MY SQUAD, SIR!!!”

“ALL PRESENT IN MY SQUAD, SIR!!!”

.

“SIR, ONE OF THEM ABSENT FROM MY LIST!!!”

Hearing that Damian smirked while the rest of them were a bit surprised by this. Damian then kept his cup down and asked, “Now then can we hear the name of our good little shadow here.”

The person who reported earlier nodded and said, “The person’s name is Jason Arc, a soldier from Adroelia. Lives in the capital with his family a father, mother, wife and two kids. Joined the army 2 years ago.”

Damian nodded and looked at the shadow and said, “Well then Mr. Jason, want to come out now or speak to us.”

But still the shadow or Jason didn’t say anything and remained quiet. Seeing that Damian sighed and said, “You really want me to be kinder to you, right?”

He then s.iled and said, “Then let me show you my kindness-” He then looked at the generals and said, “General Christopher, send a word to the palace to burn down Mr. Arc’s house along with the residents in it, oh and make sure that they all are unconcious I want to show them my kindness for all the hard work that Mr. Jason here has done for us by letting them have a very fulfilling ‘rest’. Here take my communication lacrima I have given one to the palace as well for communication.” and threw a lacrima towards the shocked General Christopher who was still able to catch it.

The whole army looked at Damian with a surprised look on their faces but no one said anything, they knew that they were at battlefield and inorder to survive and go back to their homes the soldiers were mentally prepared to discard any traitors or spies who were going to lead them to their demise.

Hearing the order that Damian gave the shadow started trembling and after a while a voice came out, “W-wait you can’t do this. YOU CAN’T DO SOMETHING LIKE THIS!!!”

Damian looked at the shadow and said, “What you don’t believe me then how about we ask someone fri. the palace to record the whole scene for you so that you can watch it later to your heart’s content or We can also announce in the capital that you have betrayed us and sided with the opposite army as well, right?”

Jason got totally silent hearing Damian’s idea and didn’t know what to do. After running various scenarios in his brain and unable to think of anything to get rid of Damian he Jason clicked his tongue and got out of his shadow but was still unable to move because of the enchantment.

Seeing him come out Damian put a magic suppression enchantment on Jason and said with a smirk on his face, “So shall we begin our long chat Mr. Jason.”
