Fairy Tail Space Mage

By this time, they were finally completely certain that Uru had recovered!

Although it wasn't quite what I imagined, Uru has indeed been restored. From a cold block of ice, she has been restored into a little girl with flesh and blood.

The two grown men almost burst into tears on the spot. If it weren't for Deliora looking down at them from above...

"Now is not the time for reminiscing. Everyone, prepare for battle!" Elsa drew his longsword from his waist, his expression grave.

"Oh!!"

The others, including Natsu, Lucy, Happy, and the others who were a beat slow to react and only just arrived, all responded loudly.

Although Deliora in front of them looked terrifying, they had just witnessed a miracle—the breaking of the Absolute Freeze and the resurrection of people. Therefore, they were now full of fighting spirit and confidence!

"Wait... Are you going to fight this monster? This is Deliora... Wait, what are your crests? Are you... Fairy Tail?"

Ul already knew about Fairy Tail. In fact, that's why she asked Gray to go to Fairy Tail before using Absolute Freeze.

“Uru… I joined Fairy Tail as you said, and these are my partners! We are very strong, and this time, we will definitely defeat Deliora!”

Gray was very excited and full of confidence at this moment, completely different from when he said "Deliora is impossible to defeat".

“That’s right, I have completely surpassed you, Uru! Just watch from behind. I will use my new magic to utterly defeat Deliora!”

Leo was also incredibly excited. Being able to stand in front of Uru and face Deliora seemed like an unparalleled salvation for him. He felt that even if ten Delioras came, he could take them all down right now!

Everyone in the cave was fired up, their fighting spirit reaching its peak. Even Ultear was infected and felt a surge of fighting spirit within her. Except for Kong.

Chapter 179 Reunion

"What...are you playing?"

He asked a very strange question. Then, ignoring the puzzled looks from the crowd, Kong stretched out his right hand, palm up, and squeezed out a [Singularity] that looked like it could collapse at any moment. Immediately afterward, he flung the [Singularity] towards Deliora above his head.

"Roar!!"

Deliora roared in fury as it saw the tiny [Singularity] slowly flying towards it. It seemed to be humiliated that Sora intended to attack it with such a minor magical attack.

But unexpectedly, after the Singularity made contact with its body, the huge monster that had seemed invincible could only struggle and roar in great unwillingness, then was twisted and stretched, and finally completely swallowed up by a small black dot!

After the evolution of [Singularity], Kong only needs to provide 10 units of magic power to open the channel connecting to the magic space, and then it can be completely handed over to the autonomous core of the magic space.

The core of self-regulation can also draw upon the magic power required to maintain itself from the magical space.

With such delicious food before it, the Singularity naturally worked tirelessly. Therefore, the Singularity at this moment was actually far more powerful than the Singularity that Kong had previously controlled.

Of course, the fundamental reason why Deliora was powerless to fight back, its life force exhausted, and only an empty shell remained was the real reason.

……

"I told you long ago, it was already at its last gasp."

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, he spread his hands and explained.

Apart from Uru, who had just met Sora and knew nothing about Sora's strength, everyone else remained silent after hearing Sora's explanation.

The exciting atmosphere that had been building in the huge underground cave was suddenly dampened.

……

Although Ul successfully recovered and Deliora was completely defeated, everything seemed to have come to a perfect end. But that's not actually the case... at least, the recovered Ul looks a little off.

Why did Uru turn into a little girl?

Although Kong wanted to thoroughly examine Xiao Uru's physical condition, he was, after all, a male and not a doctor who could treat the other party as merely a patient, so he could not directly examine a woman's body.

Furthermore, there wasn't enough medical equipment here to conduct a detailed examination. Therefore, Kong could only verbally inquire about Xiao Uru's feelings and condition.

After learning that the other party didn't seem to have anything wrong with him except for the missing right foot, and that his memory seemed to be intact, Sora nodded with relief.

"The reason my body shrank is because the ice had melted before... Although I summoned back many of them with magic, a lot of them were still missing. So, in the end, I could only restore it in this form," Sora explained to Gray and Leo.

"Sigh...it's all my fault." Leo was filled with regret.

“It’s all in the past, Leo…” Little Uru’s expression was complicated. She wanted to pat Leo’s head, but couldn’t reach it at all. Then, she turned her head and asked Sora, “Can I turn back into my original form… and grow up again?”

“I don’t know… I’m not good at medicine or healing magic. When we get back, I’ll have to ask our guild’s apothecary advisor, Poliusica, to give you a thorough examination… However, since your memory is fine, your body should be okay too,” Sora replied.

Sora had initially thought that because the ice was melting, some of Uru's memories might be permanently lost to the sea and could never be recovered. But the result was much better than she had imagined.

Of course, Uru may have indeed lost some of his memories, but it just hasn't been discovered yet.

This needs to be observed gradually in the future.

……

Uru is actually very optimistic, both in the past and now.

She doesn't care at all whether she's a loli or an older sister.

After hearing Sora say "there shouldn't be any problems," she immediately felt relieved.

She pulled Gray and Uru down to sit on the ground, then patted their heads casually, listening to them recount what had happened over the years while occasionally punching them hard a couple of times, giving them a good scolding.

The two grown men showed no shame whatsoever for being lectured by the little girl. They might talk back, but they would never dare to fight back when they were being hit. In front of Little Uru, they were completely like two children.

Urudia watched the warm atmosphere in the three-person room from afar and couldn't help but bite her lip.

"Aren't you planning to go up and acknowledge them?"

Sora came to Ultear's side, and although there was transformation magic and a mask between them, he seemed to be able to see her current expression.

Seeing that Gray and the other two were chatting, Sora quietly walked away. After all, he didn't want to disturb the three of them who hadn't seen each other for ten years and were happily catching up. Then, without realizing it, Sora found himself next to Ultear.

"Ha... In my heart, she is dead. Just as I am dead in her heart."

Despite their past experience of working together seamlessly when using magic, and despite the fact that the man beside her seemed to know many of her secrets, Ultear still didn't give Sou a friendly look.

Her current mood is complicated and irritable. She really doesn't have time to think about this man, whom she didn't care much about before, but now finds to be both mysterious and troublesome.

"It's up to you. It's fine if you want to escape for now, since she's already been resurrected. There's still plenty of time and opportunities between you two. I hope you can come to terms with it and not miss out again."

Sora is a very gentlemanly man. Unlike the protagonists in harem stories who, while not yet familiar with Ultear, would interfere in the private affairs of a girl they've just met, push her forward, and try to win her favor, Sora wouldn't do that.

Then, Sora doesn't really like girls like Ultear (though her twin tails were quite cute when she was little). Sora prefers girls like Mira, who are gentle, considerate, and a bit of a ditz (or maybe a bit naive).

When Urudia heard Kong's words, he merely glanced at him without saying a word.

She really wanted to leave, but unfortunately, her magic and mental state were both terrible. She would have to wait until her magic recovered before she could leave.

Meanwhile, noticing Sora and Ultear talking "very intimately," Little Ul, who was talking to Gray and Rio, couldn't help but ask the two about Ultear's background. Unfortunately, neither of them knew anything about her.

……

"Great! Mission accomplished! Gray's master is saved, Deliora has been defeated, and we can finally go back!" Happy exclaimed happily.

As Sora left Gray and the others, Natsu, who wasn't quite aware of the atmosphere, was pulled away by Lucy and walked off with Erza. Happy naturally followed.

“Yes, Deliora is gone, the Moon Ritual will never happen again, and the villagers should be back to normal by now… It’s a pity we won’t get our reward.” Lucy looked at Erza beside her, her face full of grievance.

Elsa had said before that he would not ask the village for any reward this time.

Lucy felt a pang of regret; she didn't care much about the money, but she really wanted the golden key that came with it.

"We shouldn't be asked for payment for a commission that we didn't complete on our own."

Natsu seemed quite relaxed about it. Although he hadn't achieved his goal of training by sneaking out, seeing Gray so happy made Natsu feel content.

Chapter 180 Zhalute's Identity

"You're all too naive... The mission isn't even finished yet. In fact, you've been mistaken from the very beginning... Never mind, I'll explain when we get back to the village." Elsa only said these few words after hearing their comments before approaching Sora. She hadn't forgotten to protect Sora's safety.

One reason was that he was worried about Zaruto, who was by Sora's side; another reason was that he was aware of Sora's current situation.

The side effect of the "Violent Spirit Pill" is that it causes the user's magic power to drop to very low or be completely depleted within three days.

Kong was very lucky; his magic power hadn't completely run out. The fact that he was still alive, as a mage, was the biggest proof of that.

But without magic, Sora is now almost no different from an ordinary person.

In reality, he might be even weaker than an ordinary person. Because once his [Void Garment] activates [Shatter], he will be instantly drained of his magic power. It's fair to say that any mage who gets close to him, even without doing anything, could potentially kill him.

He's now somehow ended up next to that guy whose identity is completely unknown. Even with Little Pink protecting him, Erza still thinks Sora is too careless.

……

"Elsa, please find me a place to rest. I can't use long-distance [movement] right now, so I can only rely on you."

After offering a few words of advice to Ultear, Sora saw Elsa and the others following and made a request to them.

“Leave it to me!” Elsa replied.

"And there's also Natsu's request..."

“Leave it to me!” Elsa replied again.

"Okay." Kong nodded, then went to Elsa's side and walked with her out of the large cave.

Despite having many questions, Natsu and the others immediately followed.

Watching the group leave, Ultear was a little confused about the relationship between Sora and Erza.

Urudia could tell that they trusted each other and had a great understanding of one another.

Before that, Elsa had been like an empty guard or maid, dutifully and carefully protecting him.

Now, she seems like a reliable and dependable team leader, poised and powerful, giving people peace of mind.

Unlike Uru's side, the intimate atmosphere here in Sora, filled with family, friends, and other elements, made Urudia very uncomfortable. She thought about herself and realized that besides deceiving herself and others, she seemed to have nothing.

Ultear's mood became even more agitated. Before her magic had fully recovered, she used long-distance teleportation magic to leave Devil's Island and return to "Heart of the Devil".

On the other side, upon discovering that Urutia had suddenly left, Uru felt a sense of loss, as if he had missed something important.

……

Back at their lodging in the village on Alcatraz, they lay down and opened their eyes the next day to find it was already noon.

Whether it was the mental strain of reviving Uru last night or the aftereffects of the "Violent Spirit Pill," Kong was sore all over and extremely tired.

So, after a good night's sleep, he didn't wake up until noon.

After washing up, the village treated everyone to lunch. Little Uru was at the table, but Leo was not.

Having previously wanted to destroy the village, Leo naturally had no face to come here. He and his followers had their own settlement on the other side of the island.

It's worth mentioning that last night, when Leo and Gray parted ways, they had another argument about who should take care of Ulquiorra. Of course, Ulquiorra stepped in and took care of both of them.

Although his body shrank, his magic did not diminish. On the contrary, due to the reconstruction of his body, Uru's magic was refined to a higher level.
