So she immediately grabbed Hope's hand, imagined him as a weapon, and in front of everyone, forcefully stuffed the bewildered Hope into her magical space.
Amidst the expectant gazes of the crowd, Erza smiled slightly, waved her hand, and Hope fell from the 'Costume Change' magic circle that unfolded in mid-air, landing on her bottom with a thud.
Hope's lips twitched, and he stood up, dusting off his pants. "I'm telling you, Erza, you should have let my good brother Natsu do the experiments. He's tough and durable."
Being brothers with you is truly the worst luck ever...
Everyone silently complained, shocked by Hope's shamelessness.
Only Natsu was grinning foolishly; Hope actually treated him like a brother.
After a few more jokes, no one objected to Hope taking the six magic crystals. After all, pure magic mages cannot absorb it and basically only provide magic to external objects.
Back on the ground, seeing the pitiful state of Wu and the ancient city that was half destroyed, everyone realized just how intense the battle between Hope and Wu had been.
Looking at Wu, whose life force was as weak as a candle in the wind, I thought, "I never imagined that the mysterious Oración Seis guild master was actually Brian's other personality."
In this magical world, mindset has a significant impact on magic.
The ambitious Brian is more inclined to scheme, so even though they share a body, his strength is far inferior to Wu, who possesses a pure "destructive" will.
However, that destructive desire has now been crushed by Hope along with the man.
Erza asked Richard why Brian tried to have "Nirvana" attack the Cat's Den. She only wanted to confirm her previous guess, but she got a shocking truth from Richard.
“Brian wasn’t testing ‘Nirvana’.”
Richard closed the book and turned to look at Wendy next to Mistgang. "The reason he plotted against your guild is entirely because the residents of your village are the Nebbit clan, who mysteriously disappeared 400 years ago after creating 'Nirvana'."
This is yet another shocking piece of news.
The descendants of the creators of Nirvana live near Nirvana. From Brian's perspective, if anyone could stop this super-transformation magic, it would undoubtedly be a descendant of the Nirvana race.
No wonder he sent Nirvana to attack the Demon Cat's Abode, even though it ultimately failed.
"that......"
Wendy stepped forward. She hadn't expected that the village where she grew up had this kind of background. She said to the adults who were gossiping, "If you don't mind, please come and rest at our guild."
The group naturally wouldn't refuse an invitation from a cute little girl, and they were also quite curious about the Demon Cat's Abode.
With the Oración Seis already surrendered, the group boarded the Christina and set off in the direction Wendy indicated.
Soon, a small village with a lively atmosphere came into view. It looked quite ordinary, except for the cat-shaped tent in the center of the village.
The airship landed in the village square, and when Wendy got off, the villagers rushed over.
Wendy, you're back?
"You didn't encounter any danger, did you?"
"Xia Lulu still likes to keep a straight face as always."
"..."
As Hope, who was the last to step off the airship, watched the villagers who doted on Wendy, he noticed something unusual about them; their physical condition seemed somewhat familiar.
Hopra stopped Erza and whispered a few words in her ear.
Erza looked on incredulously, glanced around at the villagers, but did nothing.
The villagers learned from Wendy and Charlos that Oración Seis had been defeated, Nirvana had been completely terminated, and there was no longer enough energy to start it up, so they immediately gave everyone a warm welcome.
Everyone was given two sets of unique textile clothing from the Nebit tribe, and a banquet was later held for them in the square.
The rice wine is sweet and fragrant, and the wild game from the mountain village is exceptionally delicious.
At the banquet, everyone met the president of the Demon Cat Inn, who was also the village chief of this small village—Robin.
It was a short, thin old man of similar build to Makarov, with a white beard and a feathered headdress resembling that of an Indian tribe. He looked no different from an ordinary person.
Robin Lue approached Mystergan's table with a smile. "It's been a long time, young man. You haven't come back to visit in seven years. Wendy has been missing you terribly."
Mystogan bowed apologetically to Robin, "Thank you for taking care of Wendy all these years, but it seems this place has changed quite a bit compared to seven years ago..."
Robin Lu smiled. "It's not just here that's changed. Aren't you also wrapped up tightly? Did you run into some trouble?"
"Because I look like someone else, I didn't want to cause trouble, so I..."
"Hey, how similar can they be?"
Robin continued with a laugh, "Back then, you left little Wendy all to me. Now that we're finally seeing each other again, you won't even let the old man see your face."
Mistgang hesitated for a moment before finally removing his mysterious mask.
In an instant, all eyes of the guild's allied forces were fixed on his face. Everyone had long coveted Mystergang's true appearance, but when they saw it, they immediately erupted in chaos.
"Geralt?!"
"How is this possible?!"
"You're not another one of his thought entities, are you?!"
"Mistgang, speak up!"
"......"
That's right, Mystogan looks exactly like Geralt, even the tattoo on his right eye is exactly the same.
If Mystogan's magical style hadn't differed from Jellal's, Jura and Ichiya, who had once fought a great battle with Jellal, would probably have already attacked him.
Wendy was startled by the sudden change in everyone's attitude and instinctively grabbed Mystogan's clothes. Because of her lack of information, she didn't know that there was another Geralt in this world.
Mystogan gently patted Wendy's head and explained to everyone, "Don't panic, everyone. Gerald and I are two different people. The reason I hide my appearance is to avoid attracting unnecessary trouble."
Although it was hard to believe, everyone chose to trust Mistgang, who was fighting alongside them.
Erza, Natsu, and the others finally understood why this guy used sleep magic on his companions when he returned to the guild; it turned out he didn't want his appearance to be discovered.
Just as everyone was getting back to eating and drinking, Robin suddenly said, "You... are you from another world?"
The old man's meaningful tone instantly made the two of them tense up.
Hope stared at Robin, wondering if the old man had discovered his identity as a transmigrator. Wait... he seemed to have said that to Mystogan just now.
I'm not the only transmigrator in this world?!
Chapter 149 The Prince of Another World
As Robin Lu's voice rang out, the entire square fell into an eerie silence, even the crackling of the campfire seemed particularly jarring.
"Another...world?"
Erza was the first to react, her gaze shifting back and forth between Mystogan and Robin.
Robin walked slowly to the center of the square, looked up at the bright moon that had replaced the twilight in the sky, and asked, "Have you ever heard of parallel worlds?"
“Other worlds that are similar yet different—that’s what parallel worlds are,” Hope said in a vague overview.
Robin nodded. "Two parallel worlds are like two lines that never intersect. Theoretically, they will never meet, but there are always various situations that can temporarily connect the two worlds."
"magic!"
Hope immediately understood. With so many types of magic, there must be one that could bridge the gap between two worlds. "So Mystogan comes from a parallel world? He's Gerald from that world?!"
Hope's voice wasn't loud, but it reached everyone's ears clearly.
Sensing the surprised or scrutinizing gazes of the crowd, Mistgang's expression remained remarkably calm, yet carried the weariness of a long-standing burden.
“You’re right, Hope.”
After a moment of silence, Mistgang finally spoke up.
“I come from a world that is similar to this world yet completely different from it—Edras. I am the prince of the human kingdom in that world, and also... Jellal of that world.”
"prince?!"
"Jeral from another world?!"
"..."
Exclamations of surprise rose and fell.
Natsu's eyes widened. There had been so many shocking news stories these past two days that his brain seemed unable to process so much information at once.
Gray's glass slipped from his hand, spilling wine all over the floor.
Lucy covered her mouth, glancing at Mystogan and then stealing a glance at Erza, but Erza showed no other emotion beyond her initial surprise.
Erza doesn't like Stand literature.
Although he is Jellal from another world, here he is a trustworthy companion, Mystogan, and is a completely different person from the Jellal of this world.
Mystergan then explained to the crowd.
This world is called "Aslant," and it is a parallel world to his homeland "Edras." Magic exists in both worlds.
However, unlike the former, the world of Mystogan is in the end times when magic is about to be exhausted.
Humans in "Edras" do not possess magic power; the magic they use relies on magical artifacts. Mystogan's five wands are among the world's top magical artifacts.
The magic of that world came from the earth, but in recent centuries, the earth has gradually reduced its magical output, and in this era, it has completely ceased.
The magic is about to run out.
In order to ensure that Edolas could obtain sufficient magical power, the king of the human kingdoms initiated a daring plan.
Using the super-subspace magic "Anima," magic power was plundered from the magic-rich parallel world "Aslant" and transferred to the world of Edolas.
However, this super magic has a major flaw.
Anima can only target locations with strong magical power. In other words, if a place accumulates a large amount of magical power, then people, buildings, and even the natural environment will be transferred away by this magic.
This will cause great damage to "Aslant".
As a prince of the human kingdom, Mystogan does not approve of this plan. In order to stop his father's crazy plan, he came to the world of Aslant by using the "Anima".
Seven years ago, when he first came into this world, Mystogan found Wendy, who was only five years old at the time. He told Wendy his real name and lived with the little girl for a while.
Afterwards, because Mystogan had to continue pursuing magic to counter 'Anima', he was no longer able to take care of Wendy, since he himself was still a child seven years ago.
By chance, Mystogan met Robin Lue, and his intuition told him that he could trust this old man who lived alone, so he entrusted Wendy to Robin Lue.
Two years later, Mystogan found someone who knew how to stop "Anima," and that person was also a traveler from a parallel world called "Edras."
Later, Mystogan, who was homeless, joined Fairy Tail through that person's introduction.
