Fairy Tail: Magic is not such an inconvenient thing.

"Great! Abbot! Please bring Lisanna back!"

"Hold on…"

Aibo summoned a thought entity beside him and then had it teleport to the location of the spatial coordinates. But the next moment, Aibo's face turned pale, and he almost lost his grip on Mira and fell from the sky.

"Abbot!? What's wrong with you?"

Mira was startled and quickly activated her demon form, flapping her wings to support Abbo. Looking at Abbo's pale face, she had a bad feeling.

"My mental entity... has lost its connection with me. The other dimension is very likely not on this planet..."

"What?! Then your soul is—!"

Abbot raised his hand to stop Mira from speaking, his mind racing.

What happened before their eyes was quite obvious. Lisanna had been transported to another space-time by some kind of spatial magic. If Ebo's spatial magic hadn't reached LV4, he probably wouldn't have been able to sense the existence of this other space.

Given that Abbot can move freely across the entire planet, and another location is outside his perception range, it's highly likely that the other side is... another world?!

Are there other worlds beyond this one?! But I can clearly sense the spatial markers on the other side, so why does the connection break down after the thought entity is transmitted there?

Oh no, the mark's reaction is weakening, the effect of this large-scale spatial teleportation spell is waning... There's no time to hesitate.

Abbott took a deep breath, gripped Mira's shoulders tightly, and said solemnly:

"Mira, my thought form can't leave my body for too long. I might need to go to the other side. Don't worry, I'll bring Lisanna back. Trust me."

Mira's heart skipped a beat, an unprecedented panic gripping her. She suddenly reached out and grabbed Abbott's arm tightly.

"No, no, no! Wait! Abbot, don't go! It might be dangerous over there!"

“I have to go, Mira. Lisanna is waiting for me on the other side. Only I can bring her back.”

"But, but! No, I don't want you to go! We must have other ways. Let's go find the chairman! Let's go back and think about it—"

"It's too late! The aura of the space is weakening. In a while, even if we want to find Lisanna's mark, we won't be able to! Mira, take this."

Abbott handed the golden key to the Virgo Palace to Mira:

“I have a soul contract with Balugo. As long as I’m alive, the contract will remain in effect. You can use this to confirm my safety. Don’t worry, I will bring Lisanna back. Trust me.”

"No! No, Abbott, you can't—"

Sensing the coordinates on the other side becoming increasingly blurry, Abbot knew there was no time to waste. He completely locked down the space around Mira, rendering her immobile. He reached out and pinched Mira's tear-stained face, and chuckled:

"I'll leave the matter of greeting the president to Mira. Also, please take care of Ellu and the castle for me. I'll be back soon, I promise."

"Abbot! No—!"

Abbot disappeared from the spot. Several seconds later, the spatial confinement on Mira's body was released. Her eyes were blurry with tears. She flew in the sky anxiously and blankly for a while, but she couldn't find any trace of Abbot anywhere. Finally, she was exhausted and had no choice but to return to the ground.

At this moment, Elfman, who had been sealed inside the card, finally regained consciousness and asked, equally bewildered:

"Sister? How did I get into the card space? Is that Kana? Where's Lisanna? Have you found her?"

"..."

Mira felt a stabbing pain in her chest; each breath was heavy, suffocating her. She couldn't stop either Lisanna or Abbott from leaving... this feeling of helplessness...

"Elfman, I... I am still too weak. I can't protect anything."

"What? Sister, let me out first!"

"...Sorry, Elfman, I don't know this magic. Let's go back to the guild and find Kana."

"Wait! Where's Nalisha?!"

"...Lisanna, Abbott will bring her back... He definitely will."

-----------------

On the other hand, Abbott, who had fallen from a great height, was not feeling well.

Beside him lay the unconscious Lisanna, covered in wounds, with a large magic crystal at her feet. If he wasn't mistaken, this magic crystal was his mental construct. No wonder they lost contact; it had all turned into a magic crystal, so how could they still communicate?

The person has been found, but there's a very serious problem right now...

"Magic, I can't use it. This is terrible, how am I going to get back..."

Without a doubt, this is not the world of Esland.

This world is so magical that it is impossible to use magic. Not only is the magic element in the air extremely scarce, but the magic power in his body is also blocked by something and cannot be released. He cannot even open his personal space, let alone construct a spatial spell to teleport back.

Losing magic is a terrible feeling; Abbot hadn't experienced this sense of powerlessness in a long time.

"Ouch...it hurts so much, what happened to me...Huh? Abbott? What are you doing here? Where are my sister and second brother?"

Abbo sighed. Since things had come to this, he decided to explore this world first.

"You're awake? Congratulations, the surgery was a success, you're a boy now!"

"???"

Lisanna gave Abbot a shove, clearly annoyed.

"Stop joking, where are we?"

"I don't know, it seems like we've been transported to another world."

"what?!"

Lisanna was shocked. She initially thought Abbot was joking, but when she saw the completely different surroundings, she believed him again.

"Lisanna...are you hungry?"

"I'm not hungry! Wait, can we talk about something serious now!?"

"This is the important matter, because I am very hungry, and I order you to go and cook me a meal right now."

"You idiot, Abbot! Can't you be serious at a time like this?! I just can't do anything with you... What do you want to eat?"

"Yes, what do you want to eat?"

Chapter 85 The World of Edolas

"The beasts in this world... are all so ferocious! Waaah, why can't I use any magic?! This world is so annoying!"

"Stop howling, you should be grateful for something to eat. I never thought magic would be so useless. Sure enough, when it comes down to it, you still have to rely on this body that's been tempered and refined over time."

At this moment, Abbott and Lisanna both looked rather disheveled. They had fallen into the wilderness, where there was no one around. It took them a lot of effort to kill two strange-looking, agile rabbits from the mountains, and they didn't even enjoy the meal.

"Lisanna, your cooking skills are terrible, far worse than your sister's."

"Idiot Abbot! We don't have any seasonings at all, not even a knife, and this meat is hard to handle. It's good enough that it's edible!"

"Sigh, in the end, it's still because of the person. I miss my sister Mila."

"You stinky Abbot! That's my sister! I'll beat you to death! -- Wait!"

"what's wrong?"

"Abbot, did you hear anything?"

"Oh, yes, it sounds like... an engine?"

Because the air in this world lacks magic, even telepathic magic cannot be activated, and even without conscious control, the ears remain perfectly quiet.

Aibo felt that he hadn't felt this comfortable in a long time.

Although the sense of powerlessness when he first discovered he couldn't use magic was unsettling, the thought that if he couldn't use it, others certainly couldn't either made him feel relieved.

Instead, having lost their magical powers, they experienced a different state of mind.

Magic is not omnipotent. Indeed, only strength reigns supreme. I must train even harder when I get back!

"Elbow, let's go take a look. Maybe we can find a chance to leave this place."

Abbot picked up the makeshift spear he'd luckily found, made from a wooden stick, and led Lisanna toward the sound of the engine.

"Huh? What's this? A magical car? Or a landship? Abbot, they can use magic!"

"A car doesn't necessarily need magic to move... and the engine sound doesn't seem like that of a magic-powered vehicle..."

Abbott and Lisanna watched the car drive away into the distance, knowing they couldn't catch up with it given their current speed.

But unexpectedly, the car suddenly turned a corner and drove back.

The car door was suddenly pushed open, and a familiar head of pink hair jumped out of the car, crying and shouting:

"Lisanna! It's Lisanna! Lisanna, you weren't dead!!! Waa ...

"Natsu!?" x2

Abbott and Lisanna exchanged bewildered glances, sensing something was amiss. Was Natsu really that prone to crying? More importantly, how did Natsu end up here?!

At this moment, another person got out of the passenger seat. She walked straight up to Aibo, grabbed him by the collar, and said in a very unfriendly manner:

"Abbot, you bastard! What are you doing here?! Did that woman send you here to find me?!"

"?"

Ebo was bewildered. If he remembered correctly, the person in front of him looked exactly like the new companion who had returned from the future with Natsu and the others. Her name was... Lucy?

But was this her original personality?

"Excuse me, miss, who are you?"

Natsu looked over softly and asked curiously:

"...Lucy, um, you two know each other?"

"Tch, this pretty-faced guy, let's just call him my little brother for now."

"???"

Aibo was even more confused:

"No, miss, do you really know me? But I don't know you. Also, could you please put your hand down before we talk?"

"Huh? What are you pretending for—wait, Abbot, you're actually this tall?"

"......" x4

Lucy was silent for a moment, then suddenly scratched her head and burst into laughter:

"Um, sorry, I think I mistook you for someone else. If you look closely, you're much better looking than my goofy buddy. This one's mine! Ahahaha!"

"......" x3

"How about... everyone come and sit in my guild? Although they're cracking down on illegal mages everywhere right now, our guild hasn't been discovered by the Kingdom's army yet..."

"Wait, illegal mages? You're mages?"

Natsu scratched his head shyly and smiled:

"Haha, yes, I'm the fastest man in Fairy Tail, the Magician Guild, Fireball Natsu!"

"puff..."

"why are you laughing!?"

"It's nothing, I just thought of something happy. You're right, this isn't the place to talk. Let's go... to Fairy Tail first."

-----------------

"Waaaaah! This must be a miracle! I can't believe Lisanna survived falling off that cliff! I'm so touched! Cheers to Lisanna!"

Cheers!

"Speaking of which, at a time like this, why did Natsu bring back two strange people?"

"The little boy saved Lisanna, and as for the girl, she's supposed to join our guild."

"Seriously? The king has already ordered the abolition of all mage guilds, and you're still trying to join at a time like this?"

"This is what they call true friendship in times of trouble! Cheers to the newcomers!!!"

Cheers!

"Seriously, don't you guys think that pink-haired boy looks a little familiar?"

Hey! Never mind all that! Cheers!

Cheers!
