My two-dimensional resident

"Alright, Ultear. You've misunderstood your mother. The one who truly caused you to lose your mother was Brann, the Oración Seis. He deceived her by telling her that you were dead."

"If you work hard for me, I'll give you a chance to get revenge."

Lin Tian stopped Ultear from hitting Gray. He knew something about Ultear and her daughter, Ultear.

Years ago, Ultear, whose daughter was being corrupted by magic, sent her to a research institute, hoping that Brian could cure her. However, Brian discovered that Ultear's constitution was very special, so he lied to Ultear and told her that Ultear had died.

Because of Brian's selfishness, a mother lost her daughter, leaving the daughter to live in a world of resentment towards her mother.

'Impossible! Everything I saw was real. That woman clearly abandoned me... But Lord Lin Tian never lies. He has no reason to lie to his servant like me...'

Urudia didn't want to believe what Lin Tian said, but since meeting Lin Tian, ​​he had never lied to her.

"M-Sir? Are you telling the truth?" Her body trembled, and her voice began to become hoarse.

"real."

Upon hearing Lin Tian's affirmative answer, Urudia trembled, her pear-shaped face turning even paler. She stared at Lin Tian with disbelief in her eyes, her heart filled with deep regret.

If only she hadn't been jealous of Gray and the others after finding her mother, and hadn't been more patient with them because her mother smiled at them.

She wouldn't have lost her mother; she's lived in hatred all these years.

Ultimately, all of this could have been salvaged, but it's all her fault...

Lin Tian ignored Urudia, who was filled with remorse and self-blame upon learning the truth. He turned his gaze to Makarov beside him and spoke.

"Alright, Chairman Makarov, let's go."

"Ah."

"No, what about us? We need to go out and find Erza too."

Seeing that the president and Erza's brother were about to leave, Natsu and Gray shouted again.

The two brats were completely unaware that their own strength was of no use in the search for Erza; they were only driven by enthusiasm and believed that they could find Erza too.

"You two!"

"You kids have good intentions, but you're not strong enough. If you can get out of this cage, then go find Erza."

Lin Tian interrupted Makarov's angry rebuke. With a wave of his arm, a flame shot out from his hand, transforming into a huge fire net that trapped Gray and Natsu.

He knew Gray and Natsu's personalities very well; they were both the type who wouldn't listen to reason. Rather than wasting words, it was better to let them experience what a difference in strength meant.

"Flames? Haha, I am a Fire Dragon Slayer Mage. Flames are food to me."

Compared to Gray seeing the fire cage trapping them, Natsu stood with his hands on his hips and laughed loudly at Lin Tian. He could already picture himself devouring the fire cage in one gulp, and amidst the shocked expressions of the others, leaving the guild to find Erza.

"Really? Then good luck."

Lin Tian had no interest in waiting for Natsu to perform the scene of eating flames, so he led Bardock and Ultear toward the central street. Meanwhile, Chairman Makarov glanced at the fire cage that trapped Natsu and Gray and frowned.

Chapter 293 The art style is a bit off.

As one of the "Ten Holy Mages" of the continent of Ishgar, he had already realized that Lin Tian's flames were not magic, and contained no magic power at all.

While Natsu is a Fire Dragon Slayer mage who can consume flames, all the flames he consumes possess magical power.

'Let him suffer a bit.'

Seeing Natsu's confident demeanor, Makarov shook his head and chased after Lin Tian and the others.

"Natsu, stop dawdling. The old man and the others are gone. If you don't make a move, I will!"

Gray watched Makarov, Lin Tian, ​​and the others leave, rolled his eyes at Natsu who was still laughing, and said somewhat impatiently.

"Haha, watch me!"

Urged on by Gray, Natsu quickly ran forward to the fire net wall of the fire cage, opened his mouth wide, and bit into the fire net.

"Ahhhh!"

But when he swallowed the first mouthful of flame, he froze instantly. His chubby face turned bright red, and then he was like someone who doesn't eat chili but accidentally ate an extremely spicy chicken wing. He was sweating profusely and quickly collapsed to the ground, writhing in pain.

"Idiot, you're completely useless when it matters!"

Looking at the disheveled Natsu, Gray covered his forehead with his hand and said with speechless disdain.

Although he disliked Natsu intensely, Gray noticed that Natsu, who was rolling on the ground, had a burn on the corner of his mouth.

He immediately activated his Ice Shape Magic, preparing to create a cylindrical popsicle and stuff it into Natsu's mouth to relieve his pain.

"Ugh, it's too big!" Natsu cried, watching Gray stuff the thick, long popsicle into his mouth, humming in a nasal tone to indicate that his mouth wasn't big enough to handle it.

"Idiot, your mouth is burning hot, don't talk to me!"

Gray didn't care whether his popsicle would cause Natsu further damage. He forced the popsicle into Natsu's mouth, then stood up and walked to the wall of fire, frowning as he carefully examined the flames that could harm Natsu.

The Rivers and Mountains of the Five Dynasties

"These flames are strange. They actually managed to burn Natsu, who is immune to fire. It seems I'll have to step in."

Gray stared at the wall of fire in front of him, took a deep breath, raised his hands, and unleashed his most powerful Ice Shape spell at the fire.

"Ice Form: Great Hammer Soldier!"

As the magic circle appeared, a huge, azure-blue ice axe appeared in front of Gray. He swung it heavily with both hands, and the ice axe in front of the magic circle cleaved towards the wall of fire.

hiss!

The giant ice axe emitted a thick white mist the moment it came into contact with the fire net. Gray thought his magic was effective against the fire net and was overjoyed.

But before he could be happy for long, what happened next completely terrified him.

Suddenly, a ball of flame erupted from the blade of the giant ice axe that came into contact with the fire net, and then the flame quickly spread across the entire axe body.

A few seconds later, the giant ice axe was completely engulfed in flames, and then the burning flames seemed to have a mind of their own, merging into the fire net.

"this???"

Ice can actually burn?

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Gray would never have believed that the product of his Ice-Shaping Magic could actually be ignited by fire.

Such a rare and bizarre scene completely terrified Gray, who stood there dumbfounded, unable to move for a long time.

Are we going to be trapped here forever???

......

"Are we going to take the magic train there?"

After Makarov led everyone to the train station, Lin Tian asked, somewhat speechless. Even with his flying skills, he always felt the train was too slow.

"..."

Makarov stared speechlessly at Erza's brother, wondering if they were going to fly there instead of taking the train.

"Lord Lin Tian, ​​the council meeting is tomorrow morning. If we go now, the other council presidents won't be there yet. So let's take the train instead."

When Urudia heard Lin Tian's dissatisfaction with taking the train, and thinking about how Lin Tian had been taking her flying around in the sky for the past few days, she couldn't help but shudder and quickly tried to explain.

"Oh, I see... then I guess I'll have to take the train."

Lin Tian thought about it and realized that he had indeed been too hasty. So he didn't say anything more, and followed Makarov to the train ticket hall to buy tickets, and then waited patiently.

The next morning, the group finally got off the train and arrived at Kuromba Town, the town where the Magic Guild Master held his routine meeting.

After getting off the car, the four of them, led by Makarov, went directly into the mansion where the meeting was being held.

"Makarov, you're late again."

Inside the mansion, several guild leaders of mage guilds were already sitting at a long table, waiting for the arrival of other guild leaders.

When Fairy Tail guild master Makarov appeared at the door, a strange-looking middle-aged man wearing a dark pink one-piece swimsuit with angel wings on his back began to criticize Makarov. However, judging from his expression, he was not really dissatisfied with Makarov's lateness; it was more like old friends teasing each other.

He is Bob, the guild leader of the Azure Pegasus Guild.

Although he wasn't the kind of handsome guy who could charm countless girls when he was young, he was still a good-looking man.

But as he got older, he seemed to develop some kind of fetish, starting to dress himself as a transvestite and speak in a gay manner. However, he was a good person and an old friend of Makarov.

"Haha, Bob, long time no see."

Makarov simply smiled faintly at his lateness. He then led Lin Tian and the other two into the mansion. Seeing that Makarov had brought in three strangers, the guild leaders all cast curious glances at Lin Tian and his companions.

“Makarov! This is where the chairman holds meetings. As an elder, you should be aware of the rule that subordinates cannot be brought in.”

However, one guild leader showed a different expression than the others.

A gloomy middle-aged man sitting at the head of the long table was furious when he saw Makarov bring Lin Tian and the other two into the venue. He raised his arm and loudly berated Makarov.

He is Joseph Pora, the guild master of the Phantom Lords guild. One of the Ten Wizard Saints.

Because their guild is also located in the Kingdom of Fiore, they often clash with Fairy Tail, with both guilds claiming to be the number one mage guild in the Kingdom of Fiore.

It's often said that competitors are enemies, and Phantom Lord and Fairy Tail perfectly exemplify this saying.

“Joseph, it’s not up to me to decide who brings in. Besides, Lin Tian and the others aren’t members of my guild. So I haven’t broken any rules.”

Makarov snorted and quickly retaliated against Joseph's accusations.

"Oh? Aren't this handsome young man and beautiful young lady your new recruits? Well...would you like to consider joining our Azure Pegasus?"

Chapter 294 Routine Meeting

When Bob, the guild leader of the Blue Pegasus Guild, heard that the people Makarov brought were not members of Fairy Tail, he looked at Lin Tian and the others with curiosity.

Since his guild had few members, he directly invited Lin Tian and Ultear to join their guild. As for Bardock, the burly man... his physique did not meet the aesthetic standards of their Blue Pegasus Guild, so he was directly eliminated.

Makarov ignored Bob's words and led Lin Tian and the other two to his designated spot. As Ultear passed the long table, Joseph, the guild master of the Ghost Dominator, noticed the Demon Heart guild emblem on her back.

'No mistake! This is the mark of the Demon's Heart. Makarov, you dared to bring members of the Dark Guild here? Don't blame me then, hehehe~'

After confirming that Makarov had brought the Dark Guild members into their guild's routine council meeting, Joseph hatched a wicked plan. He stood up, slammed his hands heavily on the table, and questioned Makarov sternly.

"Makarov, you actually brought members of the Dark Guild here! Have you and your guild already degenerated into the Dark Guild?"

The sudden turn of events also caught the attention of the other guild leaders, who all turned their gazes to Ultear. Upon noticing the symbol on her back, they also looked on with suspicion, awaiting Makarov's explanation.

This is the regular meeting place for the guild leaders of the official guilds under the Magic Council. As the guild leader of an official guild, Makarov actually brought a girl from a dark guild here.

This makes one wonder what Makarov's purpose was in attending the meeting. Did he intend to join forces with the Dark Guild to wipe them out in one fell swoop?
