Fairy Tail: All Magic Converges in One Body

Suddenly, Natsu shuddered and slumped against Lucy, his haggard appearance startling her. "Natsu! Hang in there, let's go find the chairman and the others."

"No...no need, Lucy, I...I'm not going to make it..."

Natsu grasped Lucy's hand, as if giving her last words, and said, "Lucy, after I die, I'm entrusting Happy to your care. Please treat him like our child..."

What a child!

I'm only 17 years old!!

Lucy was internally screaming, but seeing Natsu's expression as if he was about to die, she could only nod silently, "Don't worry, Natsu, I will definitely not mistreat Happy. I will buy him the best dried fish and find him a beautiful female cat to marry."

Upon hearing this, Natsu's deathly expression vanished instantly, and he turned to look in another direction. "Did you hear that, Happy? Lucy said she's going to buy you the most expensive dried fish and also help you find a wife."

"Ai-yi!"

The blue kitten flapped its wings and flew over, excitedly high-fiving Natsu while Lucy stared in disbelief.

"Hahaha, Lucy is so stupid, she fell for our trick again."

"I was just pretending to be dead for a bit, and she actually believed me."

"How could motion sickness possibly kill someone?"

"Lucy is so stupid."

"Yeah yeah."

"..."

Overjoyed, Natsu and Happy were completely unaware that Lucy, whose face had darkened from their pranks, was wearing a morbidly sinister smile.

"Open, Gate of Cancer, Keisha!"

Immediately, a male Protoss with a crab-claw hairstyle, holding two pairs of scissors and wearing glasses responded to Lucy's summons and appeared from the stargate.

Natsu and Happy were unaware of the danger as Lucy suddenly summoned the Cancer Celestial Spirit.

"Lucy, did you call Keisha out to get your hair done?"

"No way, if you get a haircut in the sky, the wind will blow it everywhere."

Listening to Natsu and Happy's back-and-forth banter, Lucy said gently, "I didn't call myself Kaisa because I wanted to get my hair done, but because of you, Happy."

"Huh? Me?" Happy scratched his face.

Lucy nodded, offering no further explanation, and gently helped Natsu up. "Natsu, are you hungry?"

Natsu looked puzzled but answered anyway, "I am a little hungry, Lucy, why are you asking this?"

"Nothing, I just wanted to ask if you're hungry. If you are..." Lucy's expression instantly turned fierce, and she punched Natsu hard in the stomach. "Then take this punch!"

Natsu, who was already feeling dizzy and uncomfortable, finally calmed down.

Looking at the cherry-haired boy lying motionless on the deck, Lucy clapped her hands in satisfaction.

If you knock someone unconscious, they won't get motion sickness.

She learned this trick from Erza.

Happy was startled by Lucy's actions and tried to sneak away, but Lucy grabbed him. "Happy, how dare you team up with Natsu to trick me? You want a little female cat? Today I'll make sure you're childless!"

"Hehe, get ready to say goodbye to your happy life!"

"Keisha! Castrate it!"

Faced with Lucy's sudden outburst, Happy was terrified. As the two gleaming scissors in Cancer Keisha's hand drew closer, his hair stood on end.

It was no use asking Natsu, who had been knocked unconscious, for help. Happy turned to look at another companion who was enjoying the breeze on the deck.

"Quack! Hope, help me!"

Hope, who watched Natsu and Happy's pranks the whole time: ...

In order to preserve the happiness of the lower body, they even started croaking like frogs?

Hakimi, you really...

After hesitating for a moment, Hope ultimately chose to pretend to be a passerby and make a run for it, caught between the menacing Lucy and the clueless, obnoxious cat.

After all, it's the protagonist's cat. As long as it doesn't die, it's fine no matter what you do to it... I guess so.

Hope went straight back inside the spaceship.

The interior of the spaceship was a spacious area where Makarov, Kana, and the people from the Blue Pegasus were resting.

Hearing the commotion outside, Erza and Gray wanted to go out and stop it, since this was someone else's spaceship and it wouldn't be good if something got damaged.

However, upon hearing Hope say that Lucy was tidying up Natsu and Happy on the deck, they immediately sat back down.

Natsu got beaten up? That's alright then.

Chairman Bob couldn't help but smile. "Makarov, your new girl is really energetic."

Makarov was a little embarrassed. He looked at Lucy, who seemed like a very proper girl. How could she be acting so strangely after only two days in the guild?

She must have been corrupted by Natsu.

It must be like this.

Having mentally shifted the blame, Makarov felt much better. "Speaking of which, they're a lot like us when we were young. Back then, when Polyusica got angry, we didn't dare say a word."

Bob looked nostalgic. "Yes, back then, the teacher hadn't left yet, you hadn't taken over Fairy Tail, and Goldman and I hadn't left the guild..."

Hope, who had just sat down, looked surprised and subconsciously interjected, "Guild Master Bob, were you and Guild Master Goldman once members of our guild?"

Bob nodded.

Makarov, who was standing nearby, picked up the conversation, "Back then, we were in the same team. But after I took over as the president, everyone in the team went their separate ways to pursue their dreams."

"For example, that arrogant guy Bob wanted to form a guild full of handsome men and beautiful women, so he left Fairy Tail and created 'Blue Pegasus,' which only recruits handsome men and beautiful women."

Hearing Makarov say this, Hope glanced again at Bob's bloated and obese figure and his transvestite-like attire.

It's hard to imagine that someone like this would create a guild consisting only of handsome male and beautiful female mages.

Makarov saw through Hope's thoughts. "You better show some respect, kid. Bob was the most handsome man in our generation when he was young. There were women chasing after him for at least ten blocks."

Hope understood; Bob and Makarov were of similar age, and it was perfectly normal for an eighty-year-old man to look so different from when he was younger.

Perhaps the atmosphere was right, Makarov and Bob started talking, sharing many stories of their adventures with their companions when they were young with the younger generation present, and everyone gradually became engrossed in listening.

Before we knew it, two hours had passed.

Just as the two old men were talking until their throats were dry, Magnolia arrived.

After bidding farewell to the mages of Blue Pegasus, the group disembarked from the airship outside the city. Since it was already late at night, even Fairy Tail, which was usually bustling, should have closed by now, so everyone went home.

Only Hope, who was temporarily residing in the guild, returned to the guild.

After locking the front door, Hope groped her way through the quiet hall in the dark to her room. Just as she was about to push the door open, she found a bag hanging precariously on the doorknob.

When Hope turned on the magic lamp in the room, she saw that there was a letter in the bag addressed to "Hope".

Mira must have received the letter on her behalf.

But who could have sent me this letter?

Could it be Doranbart? But we just met during the day.

After closing the door, Hope opened the envelope. When he touched the letter, the words on the paper actually moved and formed a miniature magic circle.

A large head with a mustache and a monocle was projected onto the wall by the light from the magic circle.

"Hope, I am your Lord Thor."

"Using amnesia as an excuse to infiltrate Fairy Tail, I must say you're a genius. Keep up the good work, we won't let anyone who makes a contribution go unrewarded."

"Once you defeat Fairy Tail, you can officially become a member of the great 'Phantom Lord'."

As soon as the mustache finished speaking, the letter and envelope burst into flames and quickly turned into harmless ashes.

Hope remained silent.

Isn't this just the nonsense he told Dolan Bart during the day?

How did I end up becoming a spy sent by the Phantom Lord at night...?

Even a lucky hit doesn't have to be this accurate!

And why was the original owner only a temporary worker in Phantom Lord?!

Chapter 22 Emblems

The Magical Council of Ishgar, abbreviated as ERA.

Ten council members, including the speaker, gathered to discuss recent events in the wizarding world.

The magical world is currently at peace, at least in the eyes of some powerful figures, because they are not the ones who are truly suffering.

At this moment, there are only two things on the meeting table.

The first is the handling of the "Iron Forest" turmoil.

The second matter concerns the punishment and compensation for the damage recently caused by Fairy Tail mages, which is routine for the councilors.

"To dare to openly attack and blockade a city, this is no ordinary dark guild. These scum of the magical world must be executed!"

As the only radical among the members of parliament, Representative Hogg started with a call for the death penalty, leaving the others speechless.

Speaker Crawford coughed lightly. "That Hogg, our Magic Council is a place that follows the rules. The crimes committed by the mages of the Iron Forest are not serious enough to warrant the death penalty."

The speaker had spoken, and other members of parliament who were also considered doves also tried to dissuade him.

Hogg stopped talking. Six out of the ten councilors were Crawford's men, so there was no point in him saying anything.

The atmosphere instantly became somewhat quiet.

Upon hearing this, a young councilor at the back of the row spoke up. He was the youngest councilor since the Magic Council was founded, Zekrein.

"On another note, although Fairy Tail destroyed the Oshibana train station this time, they also wiped out the Iron Forest, so it can be considered a good thing."

As soon as Zeklay finished speaking, another young councilor, Ultia, continued, "According to Captain Rahar's report, that mage named Hope actually managed to lock down Lalabai all by himself using a sophisticated magical artifact. That's truly amazing."

The other council members nodded in agreement. Many of them disliked Fairy Tail, who caused trouble everywhere, but they could not ignore the guild's contributions to the magical world.

"Then let's publicly praise them."
