This time, she must confront her origins, confront her unreasonable father, and then muster the courage to make a choice!

She is the real protagonist in this incident.

For Fairy Tail, the real gain from this incident was that they became friends after a fight, and then accidentally recruited two new main characters.

……

"What's going on? Don't tell me this is a gift you specially prepared?"

While the fairies swarmed out, Joseph and Gajeel stared at Levy, whose hands and feet were bound by iron chains.

"The information provided by the guild was seriously wrong... If I hadn't kidnapped this little girl, I might not have made it back." After returning to the guild, Gajeel finally felt relieved and returned to his usual somewhat carefree self.

"Don't call me little girl!" Having spent some time with Gajeel, Levy was no longer so afraid of him.

“The information was wrong, and I almost didn’t make it back… Who did you run into? Could it be that Gildarts came back? That’s impossible…” Joseph frowned.

"It's that guy called 'Dark Star'... His magic level hasn't recovered yet, but his magic is very strange, similar to Aria from our guild. If it weren't for the fact that he seemed to be holding something back, I might have been done for the moment we met." In front of Joseph, he didn't need to deny that he was inferior to Kong.

"Hmph! Of course. Kong is one of the top three strongest in our guild! How could a lump of iron like you possibly be a match for him! You'd better release me immediately, or if this sparks a war between mage guilds, the council won't let you off the hook!"

Levy was anxious inside, but she didn't show it on the surface.

“The council…” Joseph couldn’t help but touch his pointed chin.

"At this point, what do we care about the council? Those guys don't care who's the boss of a legitimate mage guild, as long as we obey them. If we win and Fairy Tail disappears, they naturally won't do anything to us. Fairy Tail has always been so unruly; the council probably wants it wiped out a long time ago. We have nothing to worry about!"

Contrary to his appearance, Gajeel is actually quick-witted and has a keen eye.

Joseph nodded, immediately convinced by him.

Only Levy stared wide-eyed, as if she were seeing this giant, iron-eating man in front of her in a completely new light.

……

"Hey, Kong! Do you think your guild can win this time, crashing the party?" Little Uru had only spent two days with Kong, yet they were already complete acquaintances. Of course, he treated Kong like an elder, showing absolutely no politeness towards his savior.

"In terms of raw strength, even if many of the guild's main forces haven't returned, those who have already gone out are still stronger than the enemy..."

"Really? I heard that the other side has four S-class mages! And an ace-level Dragon Slayer mage! Your guild probably only has Erza, one S-class mage, going with them, right?"

Before Sora could finish speaking, Little Uru interrupted her. If it weren't for the fact that she looked like a little girl and had a sweet, clear voice, Sora would have definitely glared at her.

"The guild master is very strong. As long as the others can protect him, he can take on a whole group by himself. Moreover, the S-class mages on the other side are not the same level as our S-class mages. The S-class mages on the other side... are only at Gray's level."

"What do you mean! Do you look down on my disciple?!" Little Uru was immediately displeased upon hearing Kong's words, acting like a protective mother hen.

"No, Gray is strong too. It's just that Natsu and Erza are even stronger... Speaking of which, Ul, your personality seems a bit different from what I've heard. Could it be due to the effects of the restoration?"

"You're different from what I've heard. Aren't you supposed to be taciturn, calm, and reliable? I don't see that at all."

Kong was genuinely concerned about Little Uru's condition, while Little Uru seemed somewhat angry and defiant. Mira, not far away, saw the siblings bickering and, for some reason, burst out laughing.

Sora was used to Mira's quirky ideas and sense of humor, so she didn't pay any attention. Little Uru, on the other hand, looked completely bewildered.

To be honest, Kong is usually quite taciturn. He doesn't like to say unnecessary things.

However, this is only the general state.

I've been with Mila lately, and although we've encountered quite a few troubles along the way, overall I'm still very happy.

With her in a better mood, Sora naturally became more cheerful. Besides, they were all close friends and family, so Sora didn't need to be stingy with her words or put on a stern face towards them.

"Kong, if we are stronger, we will eventually win."

Unlike Mira and the others, Xun'er was well aware of the relationship between Sora and Mystogan. She also knew that after the guild members set off, Sora and Mystogan had secretly discussed something... Xun'er felt that the guild's all-out effort might not necessarily go smoothly in the end. Otherwise, Sora wouldn't have given so many instructions, and even added Pinkie Pie and Mystogan as backup.

It has to be said that among Sora's close friends, Kaoru understands him best. She knows Sora is a cautious person, but this time, it seems she's been overly cautious. Sora must know something.

"I'll probably lose."

"what!"

Sora once again said something that shocked everyone present. Even Poryusica, who was by Kana's bedside, turned to look at them.

“A fairy who has lost her composure is no longer a fairy. If I were 'Phantom,' I would have countless ways to defeat the current 'fairy.' Fortunately, they should be able to escape unscathed.”

Actually, even if Mira and the others didn't stop Sora, they wouldn't have done anything special. Many more severe tests await Fairy Tail in the future. It's essential to let everyone gain experience during these current minor skirmishes.

Natsu, Erza, Lucy, and Gray all have a lot of potential that deserves to be fully exploited.

If Kong's magic level weren't only recovering tonight, he wouldn't mind having a match with Joseph.

……

While Sora was chatting with everyone in the quiet guild infirmary, Natsu and the others were fighting, and the battle was reaching its climax.

There was no probing or confrontation at all; the way of life for mages can be summed up in two words—"fighting"!

And their tempers are all incredibly volatile!

So there's really nothing to say. To the wraiths, the fairies coming into their territory is a challenge!

For the fairies, anyone who attacked and kidnapped their companions is an enemy! And against enemies, fists are enough; words are unnecessary!

The two sides started fighting almost as soon as they met. Then, the fighting began at the entrance to "Spectre" and continued all the way to the quest lobby!

During this time, there was ice, fire, fists, and swords. In short, magic was flying everywhere.

In the Spectre Dominator's mission lobby, beer and shards of glass were scattered everywhere. Splinters of wooden tables flew about. Of course, the sounds of clashing swords, screams, and shouts were also constant and overwhelming.

Chapter 187 Joseph and the Four Elements

In "Fairy Tail", the most outstanding performances were by Erza, Natsu, Gray, and Elfman.

Elfman, who usually seems a bit quiet in the guild, turns out to be a berserker on the battlefield!

He was like a tank rampaging across the battlefield; no one could inflict any real damage on him, and no one could get back up unscathed after taking a punch from him.

Elfman used the "Lizard Man's" [Full Body Acceptance], which covered his body in scales, making him look like a monster.

At least Lucy didn't know before that Mira's brother, a man who wouldn't dare say a word of bravado in front of his sister, was actually so powerful.

As for Lucy, what is she doing, Lucy who is participating in such a large-scale battle of mages for the first time, Lucy who is the "golden princess who sinks the demons"?

She summoned a new Sagittarius celestial being—Sachdarius (a man dressed in a stage costume).

Right now, Lucy is chatting with Sagittarius to build a relationship while directing him to shoot down enemies that Natsu, Elfman, and Gray's front-line trio can't handle.

She always timed her orders to Sagittarius to act very cleverly.

This made Elsa and Makarov, who were standing next to her, turn their heads in surprise.

Elsa patted Lucy on the shoulder and praised her for "doing a good job"... Several days later, Lucy experienced the pain of her shoulder almost being broken again.

"That bastard Joseph, why isn't he coming out yet! Does he really want to wait until his guild is completely destroyed before he'll show himself!" Makarov was getting anxious. After all, his child was still in the other man's hands. Although avenging Kana was important, the most important thing was to rescue Levy safely.

"Not only Joseph hasn't come out, but none of the four elements have... With something this big happening, they couldn't possibly be unaware. We'd better be careful."

Elsa did not forget Sora's instructions. She always stayed by the guild leader's side, only occasionally using the [Heavenly Wheel Sword] to support the guild members.

"Hmph! If Joseph doesn't come out soon, I'll raze this place to the ground and then march on his castle!" Aside from initially using his gigantic form to blast open the gates of the "Ghost," Makarov hadn't made a move since. He was still seething with rage.

Seemingly having heard Makarov's words, Joseph finally appeared from the second floor of the mission hall.

"Hehe, long time no see, Makarov. It's surprising that you, an old man, can still move around. That really amazes me."

"Enough with the nonsense! Release Levy right now! Otherwise, don't blame me for razing this place to the ground!"

Makarov had originally intended to punch the other person in the face, but after realizing that what he was in front of him was just a mental entity, he didn't bother to waste his energy.

Meanwhile, after the bosses from both sides appeared, the mages temporarily ceased fighting and returned to their respective guild leaders. At this moment, the four elements also made their first real appearance.

Aria, the wind element, is a strange man with bandages covering his eyes and is the leader of the four elements.

The Water Element – ​​Juvia Rox, a somber (though beautiful) woman with blue, wavy hair, known as the "Rain Woman." She always carries an umbrella and wears tall rain boots.

The Earth element – ​​Thor – is short in stature, and even when dressed in a suit and wearing a monocle like an aristocrat, he cannot hide his sharp and sarcastic impression.

Fire element – ​​Usagi-maru, a man with half black and half white hair, wearing a red brocade coat and a samurai sword at his waist, has a very cool look. His two-tone hair is not only symmetrical, but also seems to be natural.

The four elements all made their appearance, each with a distinct style and imposing presence. Behind them, another figure appeared, making the fairies grit their teeth, wishing they could rush forward and tear him apart immediately. What's more, his hand was clamped around a girl's neck.

"Levy!!"

Salusuk and Dorelle, who had come with the group, couldn't help but shout together.

"Sarusuk, Dorelle... and the Guild Master, Erza... even Lucy is here! Waaah... I'm so touched!"

Levy was deeply moved, as if she had finally found someone to rely on, or perhaps because she saw so many people from the guild coming to her rescue.

(Even Elsa was mentioned, but Sarusuk and Dorrel were conspicuously ignored. Both of them were in tears.)

"Levy, they didn't do anything to you, did they?" Elsa saw that Levy was dressed neatly and knew that nothing was likely to happen, but she still wanted to ask.

"Hey! I already said I would treat her well. But this girl is too difficult to please. Not only does she complain that my cooking is bad, but she also covers her ears when I sing to her!" Gajeel actually complained to Fairy Tail instead.

"Shut up... How can you eat what you made! I've never seen anyone put screws in food! And your singing..." Levy was furious, and when she mentioned Gajeel's singing, she couldn't help but turn pale.

The other members of the "Phantom" guild reacted much like Levy.

"What? Food without screws is chewy? My singing, who in the guild dares to say it's not good? Humph! You vulgar girl who doesn't know how to appreciate beauty!" Gajeel seemed very unhappy because Levy belittled his food and music.

"What did you say! A metal-eating monster!"

"Cough cough!"

Joseph, seemingly sensing that the development of their relationship was a bit strange, coughed twice, interrupting their boring and inappropriate conversation.

"Joseph, release our guild's mage! 'Phantom Lord' is a member of a legitimate mage guild, and you're even one of the 'Ten Wizard Saints'! Are you going to do something like the Dark Guild, like kidnapping?"

Makarov also spoke up, saying that regardless of how the score is settled later, the most important thing now is to rescue Levy.

"Heh! You barged into our guild without a word, attacked our mages, and smashed our quest hall. Now you're asking me for people? Do you think we 'Ghosts' are easy to bully?!"

Joseph, however, had no intention of easily releasing Levy. Just as Gajeel had said before, he was already prepared to go all in. Since he had already done it, today he was going to completely wipe out Fairy Tail! No one could stop him! Of course, before that, he still needed to…

"What do you mean! It was Gajeel who attacked Kana first..."

"Don't you dare slander Gajeel from our guild! He's a good kid! Your guild's Cana started it all; she was outmatched, so who can she blame for getting hurt? Last night, if our Gajeel hadn't been quick-witted and kidnapped her, she might have been injured by that kid with the Tang sword. Originally, I planned to release her after clearing up the misunderstanding to avoid a war between the two major legitimate mage guilds, but I never expected…"

Joseph looked every bit the cunning and treacherous man. Now, he was speaking eloquently and persuasively. Makarov, who knew him very well, couldn't be bothered to listen to his nonsense.

"Speak, what are your conditions!" Makarov interrupted impatiently.

"Ha! Makarov... You're still the same as always, with absolutely no patience... How annoying!!... However, we do have a need, after all. We just received a request from the president of a large conglomerate, who asked us to bring back his runaway daughter. We initially thought it was just a very ordinary request, until we discovered that the daughter was actually in 'Fairy Tail'... In that case, let her come and exchange her for this little girl. We complete the request, you bring back your mage, and both sides are happy!"
