Starting with Hyuga, traversing countless heavens

"You're such a loser, you can't even resist this kind of hypnotic magic."

"You slanted-eyed bastard! You didn't even pass the first test!"

Do you want to fight?

"I can't ask for it!"

Hinata Hoshino appeared to the side of the two, one hand and one head, colliding directly, causing the two to see countless stars shining before their eyes in the daytime.

"Let's go back to the guild."

Hinata Hoshino's wooden clone and a few others returned to the guild, while the real Hoshino remained behind.

"Mavis? The first guild master of Fairy Tail?"

"It's me. You're also a member of Fairy Tail. What do you need me for?"

"Just out of curiosity, have you ever seen elves and fairies?"

"I've seen elves, but never fairies. But it's precisely because we're unsure if fairies have tails that it's worth the risk, worth the effort to uncover the truth."

Hinata Hoshino reached out and grasped Mavis's swaying toes. Although she wasn't into fetishes, she was still curious about how they felt.

Why aren't you wearing shoes?

"do not like."

Hyuga Hoshino chuckled and took the black stockings, helping her put on her socks. Mavis protested, "You scheming junior. Guh!"

"Protests are ineffective. I will come to see you again. See you later."

Chapter 264 Lucy, the Mage Without Celestial Spirits

"Have you heard? There's a place where a fire dragon is said to have appeared."

"really?"

"Of course!"

"What? A fire dragon?"

Upon hearing the keyword, Natsu completely lost his mind, failing to consider how a fire dragon could openly appear in the city.

Hinata Hoshino looked at the Nobeta in his hand, smiled without saying a word; the Nobeta was an unexpected surprise.

Harugion, a prosperous port city of the Kingdom of Fiore.

Makarov watched Natsu leave in a hurry, and with a pang of heartache, he took out his own savings and asked Hyuga Hoshino to follow him.

Faced with the choice between compensation for the destruction of a city and most of his personal savings, Makarov chose the former.

There's no way around it; it's an old Fairy Tail tradition: if you don't destroy something during a mission, it's not considered a mission.

Even if Natsu is going to gather information, something might still happen, so Makarov has to be on guard.

"Oh dear, how do I get to Fairy Tail?"

"Lord Fire Dragon!"

"It's the fire dragon from Fairy Tail."

"He's so handsome!"

"He's so charming!"

"I want to have his child!"

Lucy listened to the enthusiastic comments without any interest until the keyword "Fairy Tail" was triggered.

Is this a fire dragon from Fairy Tail? It's so-so. Wait, at first glance, it seems alright, but something's off. It doesn't seem to fit my aesthetic preferences. Why?

"What? You're a fire dragon?"

"Huh? Where did this country bumpkin come from? He doesn't even know who I, Fire Dragon, am?"

"It's fake news again."

"Ai, Natsu, there's no way a fire dragon could possibly appear in the city."

"Harpy, don't forget Norbert!"

"That was an accident, Natsu."

"Hoshino, you say that too!"

"I had no choice. If the guild leader hadn't asked me, I wouldn't have come. Don't forget that you destroyed the water tower during the last mission, causing half the city to go without water for two days."

"this is an accident."

"And last time, your fiery dragon flames melted half a snow mountain and almost flooded the village."

"That was an accident!"

"Don't forget, you still owe me money to recover these losses!"

"Shut up! Gurgle."

Natsu felt hungry, and his previously grumpy face instantly changed. "Hoshino, I'm hungry!"

"Go eat if you're hungry!"

"But I don't have any money! Right, Happy!"

"Yes, I'm so hungry! Hoshino."

Looking at the identical human and cat, Hinata Hoshino shook his head helplessly, casually patted Lucy on the shoulder to dispel the charm magic, and said, "Come on, I'll treat you to dinner."

"Okay!"*2

Something seemed to shatter in Lucy's mind. Upon closer inspection, she saw the ring on the "fire dragon's" hand—it was charm magic. What a tasteless mage!

Lucy looked at the Celestial Key in her bag and sighed. The key, which used to work, suddenly stopped working a few years ago for some reason. She also lost contact with Aquarius, the Aquarius who had been with her the longest.

"Hey girl, wanna buy a key? Buy one get one free!"

"What key?"

"This is Aquarius, this is Taurus, this is Capricorn..."

Lucy thought about her current assets and decided to give them up. Wait, she noticed a key word: Aquarius? What was that in her hand?

"You liar! I clearly have the key to the Aquarius."

Hinata Hoshino looked at the furious Lucy with a smile, "Then can yours be used?"

"Can yours be used?"

"Of course! It works great!"

"let me see!"

Lucy stared intently at Hyuga Hoshino in front of her. She had felt some goodwill towards him when the magic was dispelled, but now she only regarded him as a liar.

"Look, there's a door over here. We just need to put the key in, turn it, and the door will open."

"Even if the key is wrong, it should still open the door! This is a restaurant! And it's open for business hours."

"Wow, young lady, you're quite clever!"

"Who would believe your scam?"

"Aquarius, Aquarius, come out and greet the guests!"

“Aquarius Aquarius has met the Star Lord.”

"Ahhh, Aquaria!"

"It's Lucy! Long time no see."

"Aquaria, isn't your key mine? Besides, aren't you Protoss people completely unable to summon anything anymore?"

"The key I have is female, and the key you have is male. When a male key meets a female key, it naturally won't work."

"Who would believe that?"

"Hoshino, is that what happened?"

Natsu, who was enjoying his meal, overheard the conversation and came over. He vaguely remembered the mass disappearance of the Celestials a few years ago. So it turned out that the keys were divided into male and female?

"It's fake. It's just that all the Protoss have submitted to me."

“That’s right, Lucy. Aquaria has wandered for half her life, only regretting that she has not met a wise master. Now she has met the Star Lord, and she is grateful that the Star Lord did not abandon her and took her in. She can never repay him by serving him like a slave.”

"Hiss, Aquarius, you've learned well!"

"Star Lord, what about those TV dramas?"

"for you."

Aquarius rubbed her hands together. (Titles of "The Temptation of Going Back to Grandma's House" and "The Devil's Great-Grandma")

These are all her favorites: melodramatic plots, unrequited love, romance...

Lucy was dumbfounded. "What are these? Why are they all elders?"

"Hey hey hey, girl, it seems you still don't know much about the Protoss."

"Aha!"

"I have all the keys to the twelve constellations here. One price: 100,000 J each. Want one?"

"I want them all!"

"Cash on delivery, no credit."

Lucy looked at her nearly empty wallet, on the verge of tears. "This is two hundred thousand J. I want the Taurus and Aquarius keys."
