Starting with Hyuga, traversing countless heavens

Hinata Hoshino could directly access Erigor's memories, and even know exactly what would happen next based on the original plot. Torturing Erigor was purely out of interest.

"You know about the pigs raised in the Kingdom of Fiore, right? By the way, I heard it's almost springtime for them. Don't worry, I'll just record it for you and play it on repeat throughout Ishgard."

"Um……"

"Want to talk about it?"

Eligoll nodded frantically, a tear falling from the corner of his eye. Killing someone is just a matter of a head falling to the ground, but this was a trend that would make him infamous for eternity.

Eligo could already imagine how passersby would describe him after he couldn't help but commit suicide.

"Have you heard? The guild master of the Iron Forest, Erigor, and..."

"I heard about it, I heard about it. He even dressed up as a woman for a photoshoot. Wow, that's amazing."

"Disgusting, I don't know you..."

Eric Gor stared blankly upwards, and Gray, unable to bear it any longer, spoke up to remind him.

“Hoshino, is it possible that he doesn’t want to say it, but simply has no way to say it right now?”

"Oh? You're being stubborn! I haven't mentioned eight more possibilities!"

Natsu untied Erigor, who then screamed wildly, "I confess! I confess everything!"

"Tui, spineless, this is nothing."

"I wanted to steal Lalabai, go to the guild leader's meeting place, play the murder curse song, kill the guild leader, and clear the name of our Dark Guild. I've said all I can say, please let me go..."

Hinata Hoshino stepped out of the carriage and looked at Erza, who was anxiously steering the course.

"Are you worried that the president might actually be hurt by Lalabai?"

Erza finally realized what was going on. Could Lalabai really hurt a guild master at the level of the Ten Wizard Saints?

"Really, it won't hurt?"

"As far as I know, Lalabai's ability relies on spells to kill others and absorb their souls to strengthen itself. Having been sealed for so long, I'm afraid its spells would have some difficulty even harming Lucy. Erigor has also confessed, and his target is indeed the guild master and the others."

At this moment, Mira's messenger bird arrived at the meeting place, and Makarov began his introduction while looking at the bird's projection.

"This is Fairy Tail's number one trademark! Mira."

"Oh, it's Xiaomila. She's grown so much! Time flies."

Goldman, the president of the four-headed hounds, spoke calmly, revealing that he and Makarov had a good relationship when they were young.

"Yes!"

Makarov had drunk quite a bit and was somewhat tipsy.

"Guild Master, I have something to tell you. Erza, Natsu, Gray, Lucy, and Hoshino have formed a team and are dealing with the Iron Forest incident."

"Oh, Lucy, the newcomer, she has a really great figure!"

"Oh, I heard. It almost caused the destruction of the port and the death of a nobleman in a certain town."

"If I could, I'd want to be suffocated by Lucy."

"Oh dear, little Makarov, you can't attack guild members!"

Bobo, the chairman of Blue Pegasus, spoke up, describing a young Luffy and an old Queen as ruthless figures.

Although it was called a meeting of presidents, the real big shots were only Makarov, Goldman, and Bob; the others could only be described as "accomplices" or "accomplices."

Goldman's words to Makarov were somewhat cryptic, and because Makarov was a little drunk, he didn't immediately understand. Only after he realized what was going on did Makarov realize who had teamed up with whom.

"It's all over! Natsu, Gray, and Erza, the town is destroyed! Ugh! What do we do? What do we do? I just want to enjoy my old age in peace."

“Makarov, if you don’t want these people, my four hounds are welcome. We four hounds are not short of money.”

"Wait, Bob, who else is there?"

"Oh dear, Xiao Ma's flirting skills are getting lower and lower, and so are Lucy and Hoshino's."

"call!"

Makarov breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank goodness, Hoshino is here."

"Makarov, is there anything special about Hoshino?"

"Xiao Gao, Hoshino is that demon item merchant. I heard his healing magic is very strong. He was even nominated for the Ten Wizard Saints last year."

"So that's how it is. No wonder Fairy Tail has received far fewer complaints in recent years. It turns out someone is cleaning up the mess."

"Hahaha, yeah, that's our guild's ace mage. Never mind, keep the music playing, keep dancing!"

"Hahaha"*n

Beneath their forced smiles lay the helplessness of the three. Joseph, as the newly appointed leader of the Phantom Lords, had unfortunately never attended a gathering again after losing to Makarov.

Mermaid Heel: Since the establishment of the Mermaid Guild, female mages have never participated in their regular meetings, which can only be said to indicate that the mage guild has declined somewhat, and the influence of such regular meetings is not as great as before.

As dusk fell and the meeting drew to a close, Kagayama, after many hardships, finally arrived at the location of the meeting.

Looking at the sword pointing at him, he gripped the Lalabai in his hand, and his heart wavered.

"Hello, young man."

Kagayama tucked Lalabai into his waistband and looked at the short old man who had suddenly appeared. He recognized him at a glance as Makarov, the guild master of Fairy Tail and one of the Ten Wizard Saints.

Hyuga Hoshino and the others also arrived at this place. Erza wanted to rush up to stop Kagayama, but was stopped by Hyuga Hoshino.

"You have to trust your teammates, don't you? Trust the chairman's persuasive power."

"Okay, if the president fails to persuade him, I will step in."

“Young man, it is inevitable that he will make mistakes. As long as he reflects on his mistakes in time, he still has the opportunity to correct them.”

"Really? Haha, old man, you're absolutely right. But why say all this?"

"Just think of it as an old person nagging. Hehe..."

Makarov took out his favorite magazine and began to flip through it. With his back to Kagayama, he held Lalabai's hand with some hesitation, feeling somewhat confused about whether he should continue with the plan.

In the end, he chose to give up, "Old man, this is..."

"Hehehe, enough with the rambling. Let me deal with you."

Lalabai's figure suddenly enlarged, and a wooden giant the size of a small mountain appeared. Hyuga Hoshino blocked the group that wanted to attack.

Susanoo appeared, but instead of a sword and a weapon, it held a butterfly net.

"Let's go."

With a slightly pungent twist of its waist, Susanoo swept the net over its head.

"Your souls, you surrender them to...what?"

Lalabai noticed the butterfly net covering his head and began to struggle, yelling, "Let me go!"

Hyuga Hoshino grinned, and the butterfly net in Susanoo's hand began to shrink.

Suddenly, it shrank to the size of an ordinary butterfly net.

Hyuga Hoshino took the butterfly net from Susanoo and looked at Lala Bhai inside with satisfaction.

"Small and unique, and it looks really good."

"Let me go! Give me back my power! Give me back my power!"

"It's a power that was given to us in the first place, so it's perfectly normal to take it away."

Kagayama knelt down, looking at Ralabai, whom Hyuga Hoshino had easily restrained, and gave a self-deprecating laugh, "So the power we pursued is nothing more than this, how laughable."

Hinata Hoshino didn't understand the melancholy in front of him. "Erigor and him, I'm leaving them to you, Chairman."

"what should we do?"

"Erza, we should have a big meal, get some rest, and then we can deal with tomorrow's problems tomorrow."

"Let's have a big meal! Yay! I'm fired up!"

Natsu and Gray rushed to the meeting place and began frantically eating chicken legs, steaks...

Lucy and Erza joined them, also feeling a bit hungry. Hinata Hoshino gave a sinister smile, his bright white teeth dazzling in the moonlight.

"what do you want to do?"

"Don't think, Lalabai, I guarantee you won't suffer."

The next day, news spread like wildfire that Hinata Hoshino had captured Lalabai and was preparing to sell it as merchandise.

The Gates of Hades, Hades Maldo Gil, looked at the message and was somewhat speechless. It was a demon created by Zeref, but this one was truly ridiculous.

"Liangyuetian Sera, go and take it back."

"Yes!"

The Magic Council is now in complete chaos. "Damn it, Fairy Tail is indeed a bunch of lawless scoundrels, openly selling dangerous goods, including a demon created by Zeref, and Ralaba, as a demon sealed away, has always been the property of the Council!"

Crawford Him, Chairman of the Council. Skilled in ancient spellbook magic, he remains silent. As a demon, Lalabai is notoriously difficult to subdue; yet Hyuga Hoshino easily defeated him single-handedly and even sold him as an item, demonstrating his formidable strength.

Starting a conflict would be unwise. "Everyone, since that's the case, let's vote. Raise your hand if you agree to take direct action against Hoshino Zhang."

Crawford Him looked at all the council members, but no one raised their hand, not even Ogg, who had been the loudest earlier.

Crawford Him sighed, knowing this would be the outcome. "Raise your hand if you agree to invite Hoshino Chang to the council to discuss the ownership of Lalabai."

The vote passed unanimously. Zeklay chuckled, "Just as I expected."

Urudia echoed, "I'm really curious what Mr. Hoshino Zhang looks like."

“However, I, Michelo, suggest that only the thought form should attend; the real body is not required to be present. Raise your hand if you agree.”

The vote passed with six votes. Crawford Himm looked somewhat displeased; this was an overreach of authority, yet he was also in accordance with the rules.

The day after Hinata Hoshino returned to the small shop, the Frog Messenger, a tool of the council, arrived.

"Excuse me, is this the shop where Mr. Hoshino Zhang works?"

He knocked politely on the door, spoke into the shop, and looked at the frog in front of him with interest. "What is it?"

"Several members of the council request that you come to negotiate."

"Yes, but it can only be a thought form."

"Okay, please proceed."
