He crossed the river, and so did I!
Gildarts turned around. "Makarov, in the name of the fifth guild master, I hereby declare that from this moment forward you are the sixth guild master!"
"You two bastards are stuck with me on this nesting doll thing, aren't you?!"
Makarov was furious. After all this, he, the third-generation chairman, had been demoted to the sixth generation without doing anything.
Isn't this ridiculous?!
The chairman simply refused to give it to him!
"What I said before about you two taking over as president was all a joke. You two, please—please—not—take—it—to—heart—."
The old man spoke the last half of his sentence almost word by word, clearly showing how angry he was at Hope and Gildarts' actions.
Hope chuckled. "President, you're still in such good health, why retire? If you really want to find someone to take over, why not consider Erza?"
“Yeah, yeah, Erza sometimes speaks more effectively than you, Guild Master,” Gildarts chimed in.
Makarov sighed. Erza was indeed the most suitable person to be the guild leader, but she was too young and in a period of rapid growth. Wouldn't making her the guild leader be a waste of her time?
I chose Gildarts because his stats are overpowered.
Hope was chosen because her stats are even more outstanding.
But what could Makarov do if those two bastards, one big and one small, refused to be president? He could only suffer a little longer, since he was still healthy enough to handle it.
Moreover, now that the guild has money, many things that used to be a headache are no longer a problem.
Thinking about it this way, Makarov immediately felt much less stressed.
He looked at Hope and Gildarts with disdain, "Fine, you can quit being the president, but 'Fairy Heart' is a top secret, so you two absolutely mustn't let it slip."
Hope and Gildarts both said they were tight-lipped.
Bathed in magical light, the three left the underground space.
However, instead of returning to the third-floor office, they appeared in a large open space.
Hope looked around at the buildings and realized that the open space beneath her feet was the land where the guild was located, but for some reason, all the guild buildings had disappeared.
Makarov's face turned grim. In just over ten minutes, when he returned home, everything was gone.
The isolation magic of the underground space can prevent outsiders from detecting it, but it also prevents them from sensing the outside world.
Just as the three were completely confused, Natsu, Lucy, and Happy rushed back.
"President! Gildarts! And Hope!"
"The guild was sucked in by a spell that fell from the sky, and then it disappeared!"
Before Natsu could catch his breath, he recounted the scene they had witnessed from afar while on a mission in the mountains outside the city.
Lucy added from the side.
About fifteen minutes ago, the once clear sky above Magnolia suddenly became overcast, and a huge magical vortex appeared in the sky, enveloping the guild from above.
Immediately afterwards, the guild building twisted like a reflection in the water, and in the blink of an eye, the guild disappeared along with the magical vortex.
After listening to Lucy's explanation, Hope calmly said, "I see. That must be the super-subspace magic 'Anima' from Mystogan's hometown."
"Don't panic, the person who will solve the problem will be here soon."
Hope turned to look at the street. Not far away, Mister Gang was leading Wendy and Charlotte rapidly toward them.
Chapter 183 Edolas
Mystergan brought Wendy and Charlotte to the crowd. No longer needing to hide his identity, he finally took off his strange robe and put on a normal black outfit.
"President, and everyone else, I apologize for being late."
Mystergan's voice was heavy. Today there was a big circus performance in the neighboring town, so he took Wendy and Charlotte to play. Unexpectedly, they sensed the presence of "Anima" on the way.
But this time, the speed at which 'Anima' was activated was more than one level higher than the efficiency with which Mystogan had previously stopped 'Anima'.
"Mistgang! What on earth is going on?!"
Gildarts was still unaware of Mystogan's origins. Concerned for his daughter's safety, he anxiously asked, "Where's the guild? Where has everyone gone?"
"It was swallowed up by 'Anima'."
The white cat Charlotte explained on behalf of Mystogan, "This is a transdimensional magic used by the Kingdom of Edolas to plunder magic power. It can suck the target into another world, which is 'Edolas'."
"Most mages possess magical power far exceeding that of ordinary people, making them targets for plundering magical energy, as identified by 'Anima.' Fairy Tail has many powerful mages, so..."
"So that's why they've set their sights on our guild!"
Natsu clenched his fist. "Those people over there are so domineering! I'll definitely beat them to a pulp when I get the chance!"
Xia Lulu looked grave. "Let's talk about being knocked away later. 'Anima' will turn the plundered magic into magic crystals."
Wendy hugged Charlu, her voice trembling slightly, "Doesn't that mean everyone in the guild will turn into magic crystals and be used up as consumables by the people of that world...?"
Mystogan gently patted Wendy's head. "The Anima conversion effect cannot work on Dragon Slayer Mages, and Gajeel is among the abducted companions."
Natsu belatedly clapped his hands, "Oh right, if it's Gajeel, he'll definitely cause a huge ruckus in Edolas."
Hope glanced at Mystergan, who was examining the residual magic, and seeing his furrowed brow, asked, "What's wrong? We need to get to your world as soon as possible."
“This time, Anima is very strange.”
Mystogan's expression was solemn. "Generally speaking, in order to plunder more magic power at once, the range of 'Anima' is set to be very large, for example, covering the entire Magnolia."
After hearing what he said, Hope also realized that something was wrong.
This time, Anima only targeted Fairy Tail, and the target was very precise. The surrounding buildings, environment, and citizens were not affected in the slightest.
Trying to control 'Anima' so precisely would only consume more magic power, which is not worthwhile for the magic-poor world of Edolas.
But that's exactly what they did.
"Something's strange about this."
Hope looked up at Mystogan, who was also deep in thought. "You should also know 'Anima,' right? Can you teleport us there?"
Mystergan took off his wand. "I can only draw the magic circle for this spell, but the magic power needed to activate it will depend on you."
Hope nodded. The magic power to activate the magic shouldn't be a problem, and with Natsu, the Fire Dragon Slayer Mage, there was plenty of that. Hope could feed him magical flames so he could keep outputting magic power.
With Lucy's help, Mystogan quickly inscribed the 'Anima' magic circle on the ground. Hope then made a slight modification to disable the magic's ability to turn 'magic power' into magic crystals.
The amount of magic that activated 'Anima' wasn't as much as Hope had imagined; Natsu handled it all by himself.
As the magic circle was activated, dark clouds filled the sky above Magnolia, and the magic vortex reappeared, only this time rising into the sky from below.
Mystergan entered the magic circle to set the coordinates, but was surprised to find that he could not lock onto any specific location in the Edolas world.
This means that he not only cannot accurately teleport everyone to their abducted companions, but also cannot guarantee that they will be together after being teleported to the world of Edolas.
What exactly happened in Edolas...?
Mystergan now felt a pang of worry about his nominal hometown.
Hope patted him on the shoulder. "Don't worry, I've already placed magical marks on you. If you do get separated after arriving in Edolas, I'll be able to find you quickly."
With Hope's assurance, Mystogan finally stopped hesitating. He took out a bottle of potion and distributed it to everyone. "This is a magic potion called 'Expol' that I asked Granny Polyusica to make. It will allow you to naturally recover your magic power after using magic in Edolas."
Looking at the small pills that Mystergan had given him, Hope couldn't help but recall the first time he met him at Porlyusica's residence.
It turns out he had been preparing all along.
Without hesitation, everyone swallowed the magic potion, which surprisingly tasted sweet and sour.
In a burst of light that shot into the sky, everyone's figures disappeared like a mirage.

Hope stepped onto a strange piece of land.
The sky was an eerie purple, with islands of varying sizes floating in the distance, each with a completely different ecosystem.
This is the world of Edolas, a world fragmented into countless sky islands.
Hope looked around and found that she was all alone.
It seems everyone has been dispersed and teleported to the world of Edolas.
He immediately sensed the magical marks he had left on several of his companions.
Based on the marked locations, Hope quickly deduced that Natsu, Happy, Wendy, and Charlene were together, while Makarov, Gildarts, and Mystergan were on the same side.
Lucy, like him, was separated from the main group during the teleportation.
"What an unlucky girl, Lucy."
Hope couldn't help but make a comment.
Among their group, Natsu possesses the "Dragon Power" and the "Second Magic Source," so protecting Wendy and the two cats shouldn't be a problem.
Needless to say, Makarov and his two companions were also involved.
I just hope that drunkard doesn't make a fuss again and accidentally demolish someone else's property...
Only Lucy, that unlucky one, although she activated her second magic source, is a Celestial Spirit Mage, and all her combat power lies in the Celestial Spirits.
Hope was unsure whether the Protoss could answer the Protoss Mages' call in this world.
Let's go find Lucy first.
Just as Hope was preparing to take action, a well-equipped army descended from the sky in airship-like vehicles.
Under Hope's strange gaze, the entire army knelt before him in unison, and one of the officers spoke:
"Lord Hopeless, we've finally found you!"
"The magic power plundered from Asland was not all converted into magic crystals. A mage of iron will is constantly causing destruction in the capital."
An iron-willed mage? It must be Gajeel causing trouble.
Hope looked at the officer. "What did you just call me? Hopeless?"
The officer seemed to remember something, his body trembled, and he immediately lowered his head in fear, almost crawling on the ground, his voice filled with terror.
"I'm...sorry!"
