Fairy Tail: You call this Celestial Magic?!

Chapter 169 Lucy Takes on a Disciple and the Golden Mission is Completed (Please Subscribe!)

In the lounge backstage, Jiude took Lucy to find Moon.

"Moen, this is Lucy, my daughter. You have just met, right?"

Jiude felt a little awkward when he said this. He had never brought Lucy to see Moen, but Lucy came here by herself.

And now, he wants Lucy to become his apprentice and even to join Fairy Tail. His attitude changes so quickly that he feels his face burning and wishes he could find a hole to crawl into.

"Yes, we've met before. You've always said that Lucy is my fan, and this time we finally meet."

Morn spoke up, he looked at Lucy and winked at the little girl.

"."

As soon as Moon said this, Jiude could only smile twice. There was nothing he could do. There was indeed something wrong with what he did.

In the past, he had always said that his daughter was a fan of Moon and even asked for autographed books. But later on, he never mentioned it again and the meeting was simply dropped. If you say that Moon didn't find it strange at all, Jiude wouldn't believe it. Moon is a very cunning guy.

"Did you have fun today, Lucy?"

Moen ignored Jiude and asked Lucy with a smile.

"Yeah! Happy!"

Lucy replied with a happy nod.

"Mr. Moon and Miss Mirajane's collaboration is truly amazing. This is the first time I've heard music like this. My entire mood is constantly changing with your music. Miss Mirajane's singing is truly beautiful, even better than the records I bought!"

Lucy spoke seriously about her feelings about the concert, and she did not forget to praise Mirajane who was watching the show on the side. The scene of Mr. Moon and Miss Mirajane performing together on the stage was very harmonious.

"Thank you for the compliment, Lucy. Just call me Mira. You don't have to be so polite."

Mira's face lit up with a smile after being praised by Lucy. She began to like Lucy, the little girl. Lucy's praise was very sincere, and the little girl's big eyes were full of admiration.

"Okay, Mira, are we friends now?"

Looking at Mira, Lucy said softly, her eyes revealing some hope, as if she was afraid of getting a negative answer.

".Of course, we are friends."

Mira was stunned for a moment, then answered gently. She felt that Lucy was a bit pitiful. She was born into a wealthy family, but she seemed to be living a miserable life. She didn't even have any friends. She was like a canary in a cage.

"Okay!"

Lucy shouted happily. She really had no friends. She stayed at home every day. The surrounding hills were hers. The only people she could come into contact with were the servants at home. No one could be friends with her.

If I have to say, perhaps only the Aquarius star spirit Aquia can be considered her friend. Although Aquia is angry that she always summons her out regardless of the occasion or time, Aquia never leaves when she needs company.

After her mother passed away, the Aquarius spirit Aqua almost became Lucy's spiritual pillar, helping her get through those difficult days. That spirit was her only friend.

Lucy was naturally very happy to have made new friends. If it weren't for the wrong time and place, she would have wanted to summon the Aquarius star spirit Aqua to share her joy with her.

"Moen, I want Lucy to become your disciple and learn celestial magic. Then I want Lucy to join the Fairy Tail Guild and become one of you, just like Hisui. Are you willing to accept her as your disciple?"

After a moment of embarrassment, Jiude did not forget why he brought Lucy here. He took the initiative to ask Moon.

"Emerald?"

Mira, who was standing by, caught a familiar name and was a little confused. Why did Jiude mention jade?

"Hiera is the child of a friend of mine, about the same age as Lucy. She also learned Celestial Magic from Lucy's mother."

Mira's question made Jiude react immediately. He quickly explained and covered up the issue of Feicui's identity.

Jiude could naturally understand Feicui's hidden identity. The identity of the only princess in the royal family was still a bit special.

"."

Mira nodded, her expression a little strange. These two girls both used celestial magic and were both from wealthy families. Lucy and Jadeite's identities and backgrounds were indeed somewhat similar, and now that they were both disciples of Moon, they looked even more alike.

"Emerald?"

Lucy was confused. She didn't remember who Jade was. She and Jade were not familiar with each other. They had not even met since they could remember. Leila did not bring Lucy with her when she went to the royal capital to do business.

So Lucy was very confused. Why did her mother teach other people star magic outside?

But before Lucy could think about it, Moon spoke.

"Of course I have no problem taking Lucy as my disciple. What about you, Lucy? Are you willing? Are you willing to learn Celestial Magic with me?"

Moon's words made everyone look at Lucy, waiting for her answer.

"I do!"

After a moment's pause, Lucy immediately answered. Her emotions suddenly became excited and her face turned red.

"Okay, from now on, you are my second disciple. The Jade that your father just mentioned is my senior disciple. She is also your senior sister. You will be able to meet her when you return to Fairy Tail. I hope you can make progress together."

Looking at Lucy, Moon spoke, displaying the authority of a master.

At the same time, the words "successfully accepted as a disciple" were also displayed in Moon's [Saint Seiya System]. Lucy was recognized by the system. This little girl, Lucy, is also a child with a spirit of dedication and righteousness. She is also a kind child who is willing to work hard to save others.

Mo En sighed in his heart. He actually accepted two female disciples first. This sect is more female than male. Those who don’t know would think that he only accepts female disciples.

"Okay, Mr. Moon, I'm looking forward to meeting Senior Sister!"

Lucy nodded seriously, her eyes seemed to be shining, she was looking forward to living in Fairy Tail.

"It's time to call Master, Lucy."

After hearing Lucy's answer, Jiude reminded Lucy.

“Ah, yes, Master Moen.” Lucy paused for a moment, then changed her address somewhat awkwardly. The new address sounded strange. Although Moen didn’t look like a child anymore, Lucy knew that Moen was only two years older than her. She felt that calling him “brother” would be more appropriate.

"You don't have to call me Master. Calling me old makes you feel old. You can call me Brother, too."

Moon spoke with a smile. He vaguely recalled that when he met Lucy from the future two years ago, this girl didn't seem to call him "Master", but called him "Brother". So, should he let her call him "Brother"?

Moon had no way of being sure about this, as it involved things in the future. He didn't want to change, but he didn't know whether he had changed or not. He could only try to fit in.

"Can I call you Brother Moen?"

Lucy spoke softly. It turned out that calling her that made her feel more comfortable. She no longer felt the awkwardness of forcing her peers to be her elders. However, she still had a lot of respect for them in her heart!

"Of course, it's just a name."

Moon smiled and nodded, saying that he supported Lucy's calling her that, which made him feel that the future might not have been changed too much by him.

“Wouldn’t that be disrespectful?”

Jiude frowned and spoke from the side. He felt that this was not a good idea. A master is a master. What's the big deal about calling him brother?

"."

Lucy gritted her teeth, a little afraid to look at her angry father. She knew that what her father said actually made sense. Becoming a disciple means becoming a disciple. How could you not call someone master just because of their age?
"Verbal respect is just superficial; the respect in the heart is the real thing. Our sect doesn't care about those empty things."

Moon smiled and spoke, supporting Lucy. If Feicui wanted to call him Master, then she could call him Master. If Lucy wanted to call him Brother, then she could call him Brother. No matter what they called him, their relationship would not change.

"."

After hearing what Moen said, Jiude shut up and said nothing more.

The reason why Jiude acted out of character and raised questions in such an untactful way was that he wanted to see Moon's true attitude.

Now it seems that Moon really doesn't care about the issue of address, so Jiude is relieved. He doesn't want his daughter to be disliked by Moon because of a name issue.

"When are you going to let Lucy go to Fairy Tail?"

Moon looked at Jiude and asked. He also knew what this guy was thinking, so he gave a firm answer to make this guy feel at ease. Although Jiude devoted himself to his work, he actually still had a deep love for Lucy in his heart.

Lucy looked at her father with hope in her eyes. She really wanted to leave home and go to Fairy Tail right away.
"She should be older. She hasn't even turned 12 yet. It's too early to let her leave home and live on her own."

Under the gazes of Moon, Lucy, and Mira, Jiude hesitated for a moment, and finally gave an answer that disappointed Lucy.

However, Lucy could actually understand it. Her father originally didn't even let her go out, so it would be strange if he changed so drastically all of a sudden.

Although she felt a little disappointed, Lucy felt that this seemed to be a normal father. This made all her previous experiences seem real and no longer like a dream.

"Then come back after you turn twelve."

Moon nodded. Every family has its own problems. Just because King Thomas could safely hand over his only child, Princess Emerald, to him, did not mean that Jiude had to do the same as King Thomas.

This kind of thing cannot be compared. Different interpretation angles will lead to completely different results. It can be said that King Thomas's approach is bold and long-term, but it can also be said that he is ruthless and only considers interests, not family affection.

Therefore, there is nothing to say about Kudo's decision to let Lucy go to "Fairy Tail" later. His daughter is about to be sent to "boarding school" to live alone. Maybe Kudo will be reluctant to let her go and will spend more time with his daughter.

If this is really possible, then Moon would be happy to let Lucy come to "Fairy Tail" later so that she can spend more time with her father. This is what Lucy has always wanted.

After the matter was settled, Moon and Mira left and returned to Magnolia. Jude and Lucy, father and daughter, also returned home. Jude actually took some time to spend more time with Lucy.

People are often like this. Before, Lucy was always waiting for Jiude to come back home, but Jiude rarely came back. Now Lucy is about to be away from home for a long time, and Jiude can't bear to leave her, so he starts to spend more time at home.

In this way, nearly half a year passed. In the second half of the year, after Lucy celebrated her twelfth birthday, she really left home and went to "Fairy Tail" to report.

During the past six months, the construction of the railway network in the south has been in full swing. On the day when Lucy arrived at "Fairy Tail" to report, the last city was officially opened to traffic.

Therefore, the arrival of Lucy and Jiude directly allowed Moon to complete two tasks.

One was to invite Lucy to join "Fairy Tail", and the other was the "Roaring Train" that Moon had been looking forward to for a long time. It was a gold-level mission that took more than a year to complete.

[Ding! Mission "She Comes from the Future" Completed!

Mission progress: Invite Lucy Heartfilia to join the Fairy Tail guild. (Completed)
Do you want to receive the mission reward? 】

[Ding! Mission "Roaring Train" completed!

Mission progress: Help Jude Heartfilia complete the construction of the national railway. (Completed)
Do you want to receive the mission reward? 】

Notifications for completing two tasks popped up at the same time. Moon took the first one. The reward for this task was quite ordinary, just like when he invited Juvia to join the guild.

Moon guessed that it might be that it was not difficult to invite these two girls to join the guild, unlike when they invited Wendy and Mistgang to join the guild, which was a bit of a hassle.

[Congratulations! You received a random item: Pandora's necklace!]

A system prompt message popped up, causing Moon's eyes to widen a little.

Did you get the guaranteed prize? It wasn't some rare material or some fashionable junk that you can't use anymore?

[Pandora's Necklace: A necklace that allows the holder to move freely anywhere in the underworld.]

Looking at the function of this necklace, Moon's expression was strange. Could this function still work in this world? Moreover, is there an underworld in this world? He really didn't know much about it.

'Try it out when you have time.'
Moon did not take out the necklace, but placed it in the system space. He would experiment with its effect when he had time later. Now he had more important things to do.

First, he had to receive Jiude and Lucy, father and daughter, who brought him the good news.

Secondly, of course, he continued to collect the rewards for the gold-level mission. He was still looking forward to his first gold armor.

After asking Feicui and others to take Lucy to the girls' dormitory and asking Jiude to go and reminisce with Master Voltava, Moon finally had some free time.

He washed his hands and face carefully, lit some incense, and then solemnly accepted the mission reward. Naturally, he paid special attention to the first golden armor.
