The sudden intimate action from Cana disturbed him, and it made him almost agitated by a reaction that Kira didn't want to show.
"Your armpit is so smelly! Let go of me!"
Fortunately, he knew how to handle this situation, but hearing his words, Cana became angry!
"How could that be?! Smell more! My armpit smells nice!"
Hugging his face tighter, she pressed his face on her armpit!
"You bitch! How could you do that to me?!"
Pulling his head away, Kira looked away, trying to get away from this woman, but unexpectedly, Cana's strength wasn't low, and while she wasn't the strongest in the Fairy Tail, her strength was comprehensive, so she hardly had any weakness, including her physical ability, which was also quite high.
Meanwhile, his physical ability, while it wasn't bad, was on the lower side as he didn't use the reinforcement, so while he didn't want to, his face was pressed against her body part that shouldn't have been shown in public.
Such an act... while some extremists might be happy, Kira was angry!
Where would his dignity be if he could stay calm under such a situation?!
Still, unexpectedly, it was harder for him to get away from Cana, especially when she didn't hold back with her physical ability and even used some of her magic to increase her power!
Meanwhile, Kira felt that it was quite too much to use magic to push Cana away, but then again, did this woman really not have a sense of shame?!
Not only did she wear a bikini, but she also pushed a man on his body so tightly!
If Cana's fragrance was as bad as he had said before, Kira might not have had trouble, but her body was so soft, and her fragrance was feminine with a hint of citrus, which was kind of nice.
More importantly, he was a guy!
How could he not react when his face was pressed against her curvy body?
Still, it wouldn't be good if he reacted as it was hard to hide, and it also didn't fit his image, so he had to get away!
Putting both of his hands on her soft waist, Kira started to tickle her!
"Hahahaha!"
Feeling ticklish, Cana quickly let him go, which gave him a chance to run away.
Frankly, Kira could grope her boobs, but he was afraid that he would be beaten, so he just tickled her waist and ran away behind Lucy.
"You bastard!"
"Cana!"
Still, whether it was Lucy or Mirajane, they felt that Cana was too much!
"Mira, this bastard told me that I was smelly!"
Cana quickly clung to Mirajane, cried, and then asked softly, "I-I don't smell bad, right?"
"You are not. Don't worry."
Patting Cana's head softly, Mirajane sighed helplessly and also calmed her temper, which had been high before, especially when she saw that Cana and Kira were hardly amicable.
"But, what are you doing here, Mira? Are you waiting for that bastard?" Cana looked up, staring at Mirajane.
"Well, yeah." Mirajane's expression was a bit subtle as she made an excuse. "He told me that he had a magic that was similar to the 'Take Over' magic, and he couldn't control it, so he discussed it with me yesterday. You should understand what will happen if he can't control it, right?"
"I see..."
Hearing that reason, Cana nodded since, as she knew Mirajane's past, she also understood what would happen if the user of the "Take Over" magic went berserk, and because of that, Mirajane gave extra care to Kira.
As for if Kira was lying, Cana didn't think so since, while this guy was hateful, she didn't think that he was the type that would lie.
"I thought that you would try to seduce Lucy's crush."
Still, with a low voice, Cana couldn't help but remind Mirajane since she wasn't blind, as she could see Mirajane's special treatment toward Kira.
'He's just a crush...'
Mirajane thought inwardly, but she didn't voice out her thoughts and just showed a smile without letting out what she was thinking. After all, in her mind, she thought that Lucy was cunning, especially when Lucy told most of them about her feelings toward Kira so that way, no one would try to get close to Kira.
Yet, could it be done?
It was hard to find such an attractive, normal man, especially in a world where most people had unusual habits, mindsets, or even bizarre ones.
So, after spending a day with him, Mirajane couldn't help but think that it would be great to be with him, still watching how close he was to Lucy and how he would choose Lucy over her. She frowned before her expression turned normal since she definitely wasn't someone who could be made as a side chick.
If Kira wanted her, then Mirajane hoped for him to give his everything.
However, that expression was enough for Cana to understand everything; after all, while she was a drunkard, she wasn't an idiot, and she was the most serious, especially when she was sober.
Still, Kira didn't know what Mirajane was thinking as he tried his best to calm himself.
Being strong, young, and a man was troublesome, but fortunately, whether it was Shiro Kotomine or Henry Jekyll, they were a logical man who prioritized their ambitions over their desires, unfortunately, as Hyde also existed within him, his control over his body was just so-so, and he couldn't be like those men in the story who could remain calm and soft, like a monk despite many beautiful women by their sides.
"Are you okay, Kira?" Lucy had to say that Cana was a bit too much, but it was hard for her to complain.
"I am fine." Still, Lucy had a good smell, he thought.
"B-By the way, I-I don't smell bad, right?"
"...."
Kira sighed inwardly, but he moved closer to her shoulder, near her nape, and smelled her womanly scent.
"K-Kira!"
"You smell good, Lucy."
As he said so, he tried to pull away from Lucy since if he continued, he was afraid that he would be greedy.
"...."
Lucy knew that she should have said something, but her head was overloaded at this moment.
"Kira, you wanted to master your magic, right?"
"Mira?"
Lucy was startled when she heard Mirajane's words and then looked at Kira.
"I asked Mirajane last night to teach me since her magic is quite similar to mine."
"That magic?"
"That one."
Of course, Lucy remembered how Kira had transformed into a monster and gone berserk, becoming so wild that he couldn't control himself. While she understood the reason, she felt a bit uncomfortable as this secret was no longer only known by her, yet this was for his well-being, so if Mirajane could help him, then it was all good, and she would do her best to support him.
After all, she knew well that Kira wished to solve his problem.
"The best way to solve your problem is to have courage," Mirajane said. "So, just use your ability without worry since we're all here." While she felt conflicted by how close Kira was to Lucy, she knew that Kira's problem was the priority.
Courage.
This was a simple term, yet was it so easy for it to have?
If so, then one wouldn't have to hesitate to confess and just express their feelings.
Unfortunately, it wasn't so easy.
"Come on. Don't be afraid." Cana looked at Kira and said, "I also want to see how powerful you are when you are serious."
As he looked into their eyes, Kira took a moment of thought before he nodded. "Okay, then." While he was quite nervous, he didn't have a trauma or intense fear as this wasn't his first time to transform with the Dangerous Game.
If he had killed someone with this ability, then it might be different.
'Fortunately...'
If he could do it once, then he could do it twice, and as he had many who trusted him, he also decided to believe in them.
"Lucy, stay with them."
"...be careful."
Lucy nodded and also believed in Kira.
Even so, the three women gathered together with Mirajane stood in front of the vanguard.
Then, without hesitation, Kira took out his Noble Phantasm. "Dangerous Game."
"Hmm?"
They felt strange by Kira's action, but as they saw him drink something, they felt their hearts jolt as his power that only appeared as so-so started to grow tremendously, and the intense aura like how one met a wild beast in the middle of a forest was felt, which made all of them tense.
At that moment, Kira released everything without holding back and became a monster once again.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMM!!!
The boiling emotions in his heart were released as he smashed his two large fists on the ground, creating a large crater as the earth shook slightly, then—
"OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!"
The howl of the beast resounded within the city.
