Before merging with Fairy Tail, Shimura Shigaraki was the head of military operations at Phoenix Feather. It was his job to maintain order and peace within Port Asteria, but unfortunately, that was no longer his job. In truth, Shimura felt a little awkward and estranged within Fairy Tail, and admittedly he hated it there with a pure passion. Fairy Tail was too unruly in his opinion, and well, he felt like he had no purpose being a member of Fairy Tail. Shimura however, would keep his former title and position a secret from this mysterious creature, mainly, as some measure of protection against any evil eye who held a grudge or some sort of hatred and ill will towards him. After all, Shimura was not the best of people while he maintained both positions, and his pursuit of absolute justice caused a lot of bad than it did good.
It was embarrassing to see how far he had sunken into poverty and despair, and admittedly, he did not want anymore thoughts about his old life. Shimura was a little surprised to see that the ‘bartender’ had offered him a free meal, if it was not for his hungry, the magma mage would deny the meal and simply leave. But his hunger was too great, and his apathy even greater.
“Men and women on you as well? I’ll take the meal, though I don’t know why you would want to lose money, but oh well. As for the men and women, I was simply joking.” Shimura did his best to ignore the man’s creepy demeanor, and intimidating stature. The meal being placed in front of him officially clouded his mind and stifled in ill thought.
Shimura was quick to cut into the steak and take a bite, but immediately, the magma’s mages demeanor faltered when the mysterious lich mentioned who he was, Odin Morningstar; that name was all too familiar to Shimura. For a moment, a coating of magma would instinctively wrap around the mage’s fist, melting the fork. A familiar feeling of righteous anger washed over Shimura, his gaze faltering to the steak below him, and back up to Odin. It did not take long to realize what was happening.
“Shimura Shigaraki, former military commander of Phoenix Feather, and I assume now your victim.” The fist of magma immediately disappeared as soon as the fork melted into goo, Shimura did not bother to fight Odin, he knew that it would be useless. With a normal hand, Shimura would take Odin's hand. Shimura would finish his food, already accepting his fate to be poisoned, and upon feeling its effects, request a room so that he could diminish and die alone.
