A magic merchant infiltrating Fairy Tail

"Ahem... Well... let's sit down, have a cup of tea, and talk things over."

Kira looked somewhat embarrassed. He knew that Selene was probably referring to Elentina. However, it had been a year since Acnologia was released; it should have left long ago… So Selene only recently discovered Acnologia's whereabouts?

Could it be that she hasn't been to Elentina at all? Or can Acnologia's magic remain for that long? Or is Acnologia still in that world?

That's great! Anyway, Elentina doesn't have dragons, so Acnologia won't easily rebel. And as long as the world portal isn't opened again, it will remain in the 'world without dragons,' which indirectly completes the plan to 'kill all the dragons'?

Ten minutes later, the magic airship set off again, carrying everyone towards Magnolia.

Compared to the journey there, the return trip included an additional Dispel, a Kurnuki, a Selene, and a Suzaku.

Chapter 436 With the Black Dragon gone, all sorts of dragons come to Ishgar to wreak havoc.

Half a day later, after Kira slightly revised her explanation, she finally explained to Selene why there were traces of Acnologia in her world.

"To be able to fight Acnologia with a human body, your strength is far greater than I imagined..."

On the magic airship, Selene, who had been invited here, sat on a red carpet, holding a cup of tea in her hands, looking like a wealthy lady seriously studying the art of tea.

Opposite her, Kira, Cunnuki, Dispel, and Erza sat together, their expressions equally solemn, their bodies in the same posture.

This scene is like a tea ceremony in the afternoon.

Kira shook his head, muttering unconsciously, "Is it too much... not too much..."

"Although I don't know how you opened the world portal, don't you think it's very rude to send Acnologia to someone else's home?"

When did Elentina become yours?

"You just live somewhere, right? If that's the case, then I still live in Aslant. Does that mean Aslant is my whole world?"

"That's right... Kira isn't exactly a polite person..."

"you shut up!"

Kira turned around and smacked Dispel on the head, then said, "If you're afraid of Acnologia, why don't you just lock him up in Elentina? He doesn't have the ability to travel between worlds, so he can only die of old age there... Speaking of which, how long can he live in that state?"

"I'm not afraid of its power at all! Who do you think I am? I am the Moon Goddess Dragon Selene!! The freest dragon, capable of traversing between worlds!!"

So, are you going to become the Pirate Dragon King?

"Yes...yes...so, how long do you dragons usually live?" Kira waved his hand dismissively.

"It's the Moon Dragon! Not the runaway dragon!!"

Selene closed her eyes, and wisps of steam rose from the teacup to her face. "As for how long Acnologia can live... according to the age of dragons, 400 years old is only middle age. In addition, given his strength, he is unlikely to die from accidents. I think living to 1000 years old should not be a problem."

“Then let’s lock him up until he’s 2000 years old! By then, he’ll be dead by now, right?” Kira excitedly announced his plan, but no one took him seriously.

“Actually, I’ve always had a problem!” Happy suddenly raised his hand.

"What?! You have a problem?!"

Lucy and Charlene were both shocked. In their eyes, the fact that Happy was using his brain was even stranger than Acnologia's sudden appearance.

"What's the problem?"

"You say Acnologia's goal is to kill all the dragons, but he already wiped out all the dragons of Ishgar 400 years ago. Why didn't he destroy himself?"

Natsu echoed Happy, continuing to shout, "Exactly... If you're going to kill all the dragons, shouldn't you kill yourself first?"

"Idiot! How could anyone destroy themselves?"

Happy was speechless after Sharuru's sarcastic remark, and could only look at Kira with a puzzled expression, waiting for his answer.

"That's a good question..." Kira hesitated for a long time before finally patting Happy on the head and praising him.

"..."

"I think it's probably because... he wasn't sure if dragons had been completely eradicated, or if anyone else would turn into a dragon like him, so he was always prepared to fight dragons?"

Kira sighed. Based on their previous conversation, he had grasped several key pieces of information:

Since being exiled to Elentina by himself last year, Acnologia is likely still lingering there because he has no way to return.

Selene, who recently returned to Elentina after a trip, discovered traces resembling Acnologia in her home and was too frightened to stay there any longer. Wanting to find out if the burglar was indeed Acnologia, she specifically returned to Aslant to investigate.

Now that Selene knows that Acnologia has been thrown to Elentina by Kira, she plans to return to Ishgar to lord it over others and enjoy life.

The Dragon Hunter Guild Master died, and Suzaku, who had nowhere to go, was taken away by Dispel, who planned to take him as a disciple, but he seemed to prefer Kurnuki's swordsmanship.

And most importantly—his own 30 million was still forced to be divided into ten parts, with the last two parts being taken by Dispel and Kournuki.

……

Magnolia, Fairy Tail Guild Tavern.

Bang!

We're back!

"They're back, they're back..."

Natsu kicked open the door and rushed into the tavern with Happy, their faces beaming with joy. They then excitedly pushed their way into the crowd, eager to share their experience and gains with their companions: "Everyone, I have to tell you, we encountered..."

Two minutes later, Erza and the others slowly walked in carrying their luggage, followed by Kira, and behind him, Dispel, Culnuki, Selene, and Suzaku.

"Is that Dispel? It's been so long!!"

"Who are the people behind them? Are they new recruits?"

"The young man is quite handsome!"

"Why is there another kid here?"

Wow! What a beautiful woman!

Dispel, who had spent some time here before, greeted everyone familiarly: "Hey, how's everyone? This place has changed a lot... You said this is Kira's special spot? That's mine... No way? You've become an S-class mage? Is the guild master blind... You said Alzac and Bisca are married? That doesn't surprise me..."

Macao and Wakaba, the longtime partners who often drank and chatted at the guild, began to skillfully comment on the group that had come in with Kira:

Dispel and the others had known each other for a long time, though they hadn't seen each other in a while, but Kira's face... just looking at it didn't interest them, so they simply let him greet the others; Culnuki, also a grown man, no interest; Suzaku, a little brat, no interest; Selene, a great beauty! This one was of great interest!

"Look at me! Look at me! Miss, let me show you around the guild!!"

"Want a drink, miss? Don't worry! We're not bad people!"

Thump!! Thump!!

"You two lecherous old men, shut up!!!"

"You're just jealous that she's prettier than you, aren't you..."

The three newcomers stared in astonishment at the chaotic and noisy tavern, remaining silent. Suzaku, in particular, stood rooted to the spot, completely bewildered, as this was so different from the guild he had imagined.

"This...this is Fairy Tail, the number one magic guild in Ishgar?? It's completely different from Diablos..."

In Suzaku's memory, the Magic Guild had always been a gloomy place.

Guild Master Jorg Lysen was powerful, but also terrifying. No one else in the guild dared to speak loudly in his presence, and they even had to serve him tea and water and massage his waist and legs with utmost respect.

Most of the other members of the guild were children raised by the guild leader from childhood, with only a small number joining to pursue Dragon Slayer Magic and to earn the title of 'Kiltina's Number One Magic Guild'. The relationships among the companions weren't terrible, but they weren't particularly good either, with training and work taking up most of their time.

But this guild in front of us is completely different from 'Diabolos'!

Spilled drinks, overturned tables and chairs, broken pillars, and people sprawled on the ground... The air here is mostly filled with the smells of sweat and alcohol. Everyone is doing what they want to do, and everyone has a smile on their face. It's a chaotic but warm guild.

Zhuque became uneasy, and large beads of sweat began to appear on his forehead.

Seeing the scene before him, Selene chuckled, using her folding fan to cover the lower half of her face, revealing a pair of bright eyes: "No wonder they can raise so many people, this guild is truly peculiar!"

"I've decided, I'll stay in this small town for the time being!"

Chapter 437 President, tone it down! She's already a two-hundred-year-old mother!

Kurnuki merely glanced at Selene without saying a word, and he did not object to the other's suggestion to "settle here temporarily."

Because that was his plan from the very beginning.

When he left the mountain range where he usually lived with Kira and the others, he had already decided to buy a new property in Ishgar—a natural property, of course, such as a mountain—except that Selene and Suzaku were not in his plans at the time.

Although he now has an elderly mother he hasn't seen for over a hundred years and a little kid he's only just met, it doesn't have much of an impact on him, a dragon who prefers to stay at home.

The identities of these people were naturally introduced by Dispel, Natsu, and others, while Kira was leading Erza to the guild's commission delivery point.

"That's the situation; the mission was completed perfectly!"

Kira smiled and recounted the general process of the mission to Makarov, who was resting with his eyes closed. "I once again completed an SS-rank mission brilliantly, greatly enhancing the prestige of Ishgard in the Northern Continent, and also boosting the reputation of 'Fairy Tail'!! Oh! And most importantly, Natsu and the others didn't cause any trouble; it was a perfect success..."

"Really? You must have gone to a lot of trouble!"

Makarov was pleased that his mischievous children had finally learned to be mature and steady. "I knew it! It was the right decision to let you go with them!"

Erza was stunned as she listened from the side. She had been struggling with how to tell Makarov about Natsu's destruction of the town, but Kira didn't even mention it!

'Could it be... that all of Kira's "perfect missions" have always been like this?!'

Seeing Erza's shocked and incredulous expression, Kira simply chuckled: "Calm down! As long as the guild master doesn't find out, our mission is perfectly accomplished!!"

Perhaps it was because Ishgar and Giltina were too far apart, or perhaps Kira's request had truly helped the Magic Council (MNP) a lot; in any case, the other party did not mention Natsu's incident, so Makarov did not receive the news.

"So, did you encounter any difficulties during the mission?"

"No! With me here, everything will be fine!"

"Oh!! That's good! Having you here really puts my mind at ease!!"

The commission was delivered quickly. After Kira and Erza left, Makarov was still looking at the report in his hand. The report was very simple, just about accepting the commission, finding the dragon, and fighting the dragon. It did not mention Kurnuki, Selene, or Jorg Lysen at all.

As Makarov flipped through the pages, he thought to himself, "These kids have grown up so much... Kira is becoming more and more mature, and Erza and the others have matured as well. Should I retire soon...?"

If he knew the true nature of the commission, he would definitely abandon the idea without hesitation.

"Speaking of which...why is it so noisy downstairs?"

When Makarov returned to the guild's first floor, he found the guild members gathered around several figures: 'Dispel? He's back too? Hmm?! This person and this kid are... Wow!! Such beautiful girls!!'

At this moment, Selene sat naturally in a corner of the guild. Her figure was as full as a peach, her skin as white as a pear, and her hair as flowing as willow catkins. Every glance and smile of hers exuded a dignified and noble temperament.

Surrounding her were those old but still shrewish perverts, none of whom seemed to have good intentions.
