Going Home

"Roar--!"

Just then

A dragon's roar resounded

This caused their expressions to change drastically.

"Could it be that Akunolokia has caught up with us?!" Laharl hurriedly looked up, then his pupils suddenly contracted.

"It's fake, right..."

Mavis stared blankly at the sky.

For a moment, the three warships fell silent, everyone staring blankly at the huge black shadow covering the sea.

A jet-black dragon slowly emerged from the clouds and landed on the sea, level with the council's battleship.

"Mr. Dorbalt."

Venti on the back of the black dragon, waved to Mavis on the ship.

"Wen, Venti?!"

Mest exclaimed in shock.

Moreover, when Mest looked around, she saw that no one was dead!

"That's impossible!"

Just as Laharl was doubting himself, Akunolokia let out a dragon's roar.

It soared back into the sky amidst the fierce winds.

On the ship

Everyone stared blankly at the black dragon's retreating figure, their faces filled with disbelief and shock.

This guild not only survived the Black Dragon's clutches, but even managed to ride on his back?!

The black dragon flies very fast.

However, upon seeing Magnolia Port, in order to avoid causing unnecessary trouble, the group chose to teleport directly back to the guild from the Imaginary Space.

The previously quiet guild instantly became lively after seeing the Imaginary Space.

"Everyone, I'm back!"

Natsu was the first to run out and raise his hand to everyone. "Did you all miss me?!"

"Natsu".

Romeo, Natsu's biggest fan, pounced on him.

"Natsu, how's it going? Have you advanced to S-class yet?" Romeo asked expectantly.

Natsu's face instantly fell, despite his initial happiness.

"Natsu, you didn't succeed?"

"I was just a little bit away from finishing, but I was interrupted halfway through, so this S-class exam doesn't count."

"Interrupt? The guild's strongest battles are all on Tenrou Island, who can interrupt that?" Romeo's father, Macao, expressed his doubts.

"A dragon," Natsu said dejectedly.

"Oh? A dragon? Is it Igneel?" Macao immediately became interested.

"No, it's a black dragon, what's it called, Ah Ankou?"

"It's Akunolokia, you idiot," Gray said, stepping out of the Imaginary Space.

"I know, you don't need to remind me!"

Makarov walked to the counter and began clapping.

"Gentlemen, there is something I need to tell you."

The guild immediately fell silent.

"Next, I'd like to introduce two new members."

"Jellal, Zera."

Zeref and Zera approached Makarov and bowed slightly to the crowd.

"Newcomers? What's going on this year? They've added so many new people in a row!"

"Welcome party! Let's have a welcome party!"

"..."

Seeing the noisy yet harmonious scene around them, Zera and Mavis both smiled with satisfaction.

Seeing that the guild has stayed true to its original aspirations fills Mavis with joy and pride.

Guild = Home.

After the pleasantries ended

Makarov led Mavis to the basement.

The seal was broken, revealing Fairy Tail's greatest secret.

Shooting Star Starlight, or simply: Mavis's body (the kind that's completely naked).

The device was hailed as having Infinite Magic Power, but once the curse was lifted, the so-called Infinite Magic Power also disappeared.

Right now, she's just a little girl who's stronger than all Ten Wizard Saints combined.

After opening the door, Makarov wisely left.

After all, I've been watching this for forty years, and there's nothing good left to see...

After some time, a girl dressed in a white pleated skirt, looking like an elf, came out.

Makarov led Mavis up.

He clapped his hands, drawing everyone's attention.

"Let me introduce you. This is Mavis, the First Master of Fairy Tail."

"President, you're not drunk, are you?"

Marcus, drunk and holding a bottle of wine, staggered over and swayed in front of Makarov.

"Another adorable little sister just like Venti, want to come have a drink with your big brother?"

"Sure," Mavis said with a smile.

Makarov: "..."

"Shut up, you idiot!"

Makarov swung his fist and punched the former in the head!

"Ouch, that hurts!"

Marcus lay on the ground, clutching his head.

"President, what are you doing?"

Makarov shook his head.

I'm trying to save you, silly child.

Not far away, Zeref loosened his clenched fist with a big smile on his face.

Chapter 417 Going Home

"Makarov, we're all family in the same guild, so let's get along well."

Mavis stepped in front of Marcus and gently stroked Makarov's head.

"..."

This completely terrified everyone in the guild.

"I'm not seeing things, am I? The president is being patted on the head?"

"Look, the president is blushing."

"How come it's inexplicably cute?"

"First Generation, I'm not a child anymore," Makarov said, forcing back his shame.

"It's alright, Makarov will always be a little guy in my eyes," Mavis laughed.

Makarov: "..."

"Hahaha, that's hilarious, the president is like a baby."

"Hey, Natsu," Lucy couldn't help but remind him.

Seeing that things were not going well, the others silently took a step back.

Makarov's forehead veins were bulging.

Raising his fist, he unleashed the Giant Magic, instantly transforming his small arm into a large wrist.

"Isn't it good to be alive, Natsu!"

Bang!

The wall shattered, Natsu was sent flying straight away from the guild.

Ling Yuan sat at the bar, took a sip of juice, and watched the harmonious scene in the guild with a smile.

Where Natsu is, it's impossible for things not to be lively.

"Is Mr. Ling Yuan an adult?"

"Um."

"Would you like to try my new [Fairy Dance]?" Mirajane asked with a smile.

"Alcohol?"

"I won't drink it. Could you please make some for me? I'd like to bring some for my elders to try. Of course, you don't need to worry about keeping it fresh."

"Of course, no problem." Mirajane chuckled.

The other person was her savior twice; how could she refuse such a small request?

"Mr. Ling Yuan, don't you live in Magnolia? It's been a long time since I've seen you."

Mirajane asked casually while she was making adjustments.

"I live a bit far away, but spatial magic is very convenient, so I'll come here often in the future," Ling Yuan said with a smile.

"The door to Fairy Tail will always be open for you," Milly said.

"Ling Yuan, do you want to join Fairy Tail? That way we can team up together in the future."

Natsu put his arm around Ling Yuan's shoulder and said.

"I already am." Ling Yuan chuckled and extended his left hand.

The Fairy Glitter tattoo is on it.

"Huh? Why is yours so long and big?" Natsu looked at the tattoo and couldn't stay calm.

Their tattoos are all small, but Ling Yuan's has his entire arm covered in them.

"Of course it's different. Mine was engraved by Mavis." Ling Yuan said proudly.

"Huh? It was engraved by the first generation?"

Everyone stared in surprise at the emblem on Ling Yuan's arm.

"Did Ling Yuan really join Fairy Tail?" Makarov asked.

"Oh, what does it matter if we don't join? We already have Zeref," Mavis recommended her boyfriend.

Makarov: "..."

"By the way, President, the Fiore Kingdom notified us of something this afternoon."
