Fairy Tail: You call this Celestial Magic?!

Chapter 241 Returning to the Capital (Please Subscribe!)
"The Rose Goddess, of course, grows roses."

Moen smiled and gave his answer. He took out a bag of seeds and shook it. The last mission gave him a lot of seeds, eight large bags in total, which was more than enough. Once planted, the seeds could be passed down from generation to generation, and there would be no need to obtain seeds through missions anymore.

"Is it that rose?!"

Upon hearing that Moen wanted to plant roses, everyone immediately understood the origin of the "rose" in Moen's famous battle and the title "Rose Star God." As members of Fairy Tail, they were naturally well aware of this.

"Yes, Star Rose."

Moen nodded. "Starry Rose" was the nickname he gave to the Royal Magic Palace Rose, which better suited his ability system.

Where did these seeds come from?

Mirajane tilted her head, looking puzzled. She had never seen Moen plant any seeds before. Where did these seeds come from?
"It's a gift from Pisces."

Moen blinked. "Don't ask, it's just 'celestial magic'."

"So that's how it is! It really is Celestial Magic."

Mirajane readily accepted Moen's explanation.

It can only be said that they have long been used to this kind of rhetoric, and that "Star Rose" is indeed something that has never been seen anywhere else; it is a special variety unique to Moen.

"Such a large rose field must be very beautiful! It will definitely be a stunning sight and attract many tourists!"

Looking at the results of everyone's hard work, one of the guild members shared his thoughts and feelings.

Many people chimed in, but Mirajane, Erza, and a few others who knew more about Moen's famous battle had strange expressions.

Joseph Bora, one of the Ten Wizard Saints at the time, was poisoned after just one sniff of the rose.

If this were to become a large flower field, not only would people be able to get close to it, but the entire forest would likely be filled with toxic pollen.

Speaking of Joseph Bora, we haven't heard much about him lately. Ever since the last great battle that brought about the "Fairy Tail Twins," that "Ten Wizard Saints" seems to have vanished into thin air.

However, no one really cared about him; this is what happens to losers.

"Once the roses are planted, please don't come near here casually. If you inhale the pollen, you could easily die here."

Sure enough, upon hearing this, Moen spoke up with a serious expression to remind him.

Looking at his guildmates staring at each other in bewilderment, Moen became even more determined to completely seal off the rose field with the "Crystal Wall." No matter what you say, someone is bound to try and get themselves killed.

"I will seal off the entire rose field with a crystal wall."

Moen didn't keep everyone in suspense and stated this directly, which made everyone understand just how dangerous this place was.

After all, everyone has witnessed the strength of the "Crystal Wall." The "Crystal Walls" surrounding the dueling arena are so powerful that they can withstand a single blow without making a sound.

If the "Crystal Wall" isn't deflected, everyone can use it to test the power of their magic, since no one can break it. It's a perfect place to test magic without worrying about causing damage. However, if the deflection is deflected, it's even more suitable for testing, but it comes with a huge risk.

Natsu particularly enjoys challenging the "Rebound Crystal Wall," which feels like fighting a stronger version of himself.

Every move you make, your opponent can do too, and is even better than you. Except for not making any moves on their own, they are an excellent training subject. This "rebound" effect also allows them to see the power of their enhanced magic, helping them find a direction to move forward and work harder to improve themselves.

Moen himself hadn't expected the "Crystal Wall" to have such an effect; it just goes to show how many people like to "ask for trouble."

The young members of "Fairy Tail" are all training fanatics; they even use the "Crystal Wall" for training.

"Thank you all for your hard work. When we get back to the guild, I'll treat you all to a big meal!"

After explaining the situation, Moen invited everyone to return to the guild for a meal, which sparked another round of cheers. The guild members surrounded Moen, chatting and laughing all the way back to the guild.

The new members of the guild initially held Moen in awe and dared not get too close to him, as Moen was a famous figure who had risen to fame at a young age and was now on a completely different level from everyone else.

After all, Moen's fame had not only reached its peak in the Kingdom of Fiore, but had spread throughout the entire continent of Ishgar, making him a true international superstar.

No one could easily become familiar with Moen in his current state.

However, Moen himself is not burdened by fame. He continues to be himself with peace of mind. He is not afraid of any setbacks. As a mage, strength is the most important thing. However, in his writing career, Moen feels that he may soon face a "setback" because he has already started writing "The Final Case".

After treating everyone to a meal and celebrating, Moen returned to the "Fairy House" and began preparing for the rose planting.

Before planting, there are still many procedures to be done. Now that Moen has mastered all the cultivation techniques, he certainly won't just scatter the seeds in the ground and wait for them to grow naturally.

Growing roses is a technical and quite troublesome task, but the Royal Magic Palace Rose is clearly not an ordinary rose, so it saves a lot of trouble. As long as you follow the fixed procedures step by step, you can ensure that the rose will sprout, grow and bloom.

Moen wasn't in a hurry. He first experimentally planted a bag of seeds. He believed that knowledge gained from books was superficial and that true understanding required practice. He maintained a rather rigorous attitude.

The main point is that this bag contains a considerable amount of flowers, which is sufficient. The flowers that bloom can be stored in the space without worrying about them spoiling, and can be accumulated continuously.

Later on, he can casually toss out a bunch of [Royal Magic Palace Roses] and embark on the path of winning by sheer quantity.

The poison of the Royal Palace Rose takes effect relatively slowly unless it hits directly or is delivered in an epic, lung-penetrating attack like Joseph Paula's. This is because poisoning requires ingesting pollen. The "quantity over quality" approach refers to the amount of rose pollen used. While sprinkling pollen directly wouldn't be impossible, it would waste the entire rose; a direct hit is far more effective.

Moen spent a few days processing the seeds and then planted them. After planting, he didn't need to take care of them for a while, which was very convenient. He just needed to fertilize and water them regularly and make sure they got some sunlight, and they were able to grow and bloom healthily.

"I'm planning to go to Crocus."

At the Fairy Tail guild headquarters, Moen found Grandpa Makarov and told him his thoughts. He was still a little worried. If Anima destroyed the capital of the Fiore Kingdom, it would be a huge blow to the country.

Most importantly, Emerald is still there. If Crocus really falls for it, given Emerald's strength, he won't be able to escape. That would mean the Fiore royal family would be wiped out in one fell swoop, and the country would definitely descend into chaos.

"Then let's go."

Makarov nodded. Going there would also help Mystogan. The old man had to stay in the guild and generally wouldn't go too far from the Magnolia area. He was the pillar of Fairy Tail and its backbone.

Without dawdling, Moen immediately packed his things and set off for Crocas, the "City of a Hundred Flowers." His purpose was twofold: first, to protect his apprentice Emerald and Crocas; and second, to implement the "Western Continent Immigrant Resettlement Policy." He hoped that King Thomas would be sensible, as this was indeed a beneficial policy for the country and its people.

Before long, Moen arrived at Crocus. It was already night. He went straight to the palace, "The Palace of Bright Lights," Melculias, which was brightly lit and guarded by mages everywhere.

But in Moen's presence, these mages were practically nonexistent. His Raven-class aircraft blatantly circled above the "Hall of Lights" Melculias and landed in the open space in front of the castle before the mages could react.

"Master!"

Emerald quickly came running over. She was very familiar with the sound of Moen's Ravenplane and the cawing of those large crows, and she ran out as soon as she heard the sound.

"Master, what brings you here?"

Seeing Moen appear here, Emerald asked happily, she really didn't expect Moen to suddenly come to the palace.

“Something dangerous might happen here soon. I’m here to protect you and also to finalize the immigration to the Western Continent.”

Moen got off the Raven plane and stated his purpose directly. Since they were all on the same side, there was no need for any beating around the bush. Moen was quite satisfied with his apprentice, Emerald.

"Huh?! What dangerous thing? Is there anything I can do?"

Upon hearing Moen's words, Emerald's focus naturally shifted to the "dangerous matter." She was somewhat nervous; if even Master Moen said it was dangerous, it must be no small matter. It would be strange if she weren't nervous.

"It's alright, at most it will just destroy Crocus and leave no one alive in the entire capital."

Moen spoke, which stunned Emerald. Although she felt that something that even Master Moen considered dangerous must be no small matter, she hadn't expected it to be this dangerous.

"How could this happen? Master, how can we avoid this outcome?"

After a moment of panic, Emerald quickly calmed down and began to seek a solution. With Moen there, Emerald was not frightened. She believed that Master Moen would definitely have a way. Emerald had become somewhat blindly trusting of her master.

There's no way around it; after learning Moen's "New Astral Magic," it's hard not to have a bias towards him and blindly trust him. After all, this is magic that allows one to communicate with the celestial map, draw upon the power of the stars for one's own use, and obtain different abilities from various constellations. Those who have studied it in depth understand its true value.

Emerald's attitude toward Moen is probably similar to that of the Protoss towards the Protoss King, perhaps even more so. After all, these disciples were all trained by Moen, and their relationship is much closer than that between the Protoss King and the Protoss. Emerald blindly trusts Moen, but is not afraid of him; instead, she respects and admires him.

“Don’t worry, Mr. Gang and I will handle the problem. In fact, under normal circumstances, Mr. Gang can handle it by himself. It’s just that the location is special this time, so I came to see if we need any help.”

Moen smiled and explained, no longer trying to frighten Emerald. He was very satisfied with Emerald's reaction; the girl had grown a lot and was becoming more and more composed. She would definitely be a qualified queen in the future.

As the king's beloved daughter and the heir to the Kingdom of Fiore, Emerald's growth is naturally of great importance. Although King Thomas seems unreliable and usually acts like a spoiled child, he can make the right decisions at crucial moments, such as sending Emerald to Moen to study under his master.

This move undoubtedly provided Jade with a strong backing, ensuring that Jade would have someone to rely on even after becoming the queen.

Meanwhile, King Thomas did not give up on Emerald's aristocratic education. Every year, Emerald would return to the capital, "City of Flowers" Crocas, and then to "Palace of Lights" Melukrias for a period of time to attend classes and learn aristocratic rules and life, so that she would not become too detached from the aristocratic class.

Jade did not resist this. Although she enjoyed her life in Fairy Tail, she was aware of her responsibilities. She knew that she would inherit the country and be responsible for the entire nation, and could not completely follow her own desires.

Like her father, King Thomas, who also disliked his current life, he still took on his responsibilities and did not abandon everything to pursue the life he wanted.

If her idea, and King Thomas's idea, were to be publicized, people would definitely think they were like Versailles, wanting to have their cake and eat it too, enjoying everything that comes with being a princess and a king, but not wanting to bear the responsibilities that come with it.

If you really don't want to endure this "suffering," then just give the country to someone else. Why do you insist on being a king or princess when you're already suffering so much?
Emerald understood this, so she never complained and instead accepted the responsibility she had to bear.

"Master, please feel free to give us your instructions if you need our cooperation."

Emerald spoke up, expressing her belief that her father would never be so foolish as to refuse to cooperate in such a matter.

"Yes, I will. Did you tell your father about the Western Continent immigration?"

Moen nodded and followed Emerald into the palace, asking a question as he did so. By this time, many guards had gathered, but they all breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Princess Emerald and that the person who came was Moen.

Even if Emerald wasn't there, the guards wouldn't react strongly to seeing Moen there. They all knew Moen, and given his reputation, they wouldn't suspect him of being an assassin. If he were, they couldn't stop him anyway.

"I've already said that, and Father and the others are discussing it."

Emerald replied that she had told her father about it as soon as she returned, and her father indeed took Master Moen's suggestion very seriously.
