The Great Bluffing Tactic Succeeds Again

"Uh-huh!"

After sensing the stimulating light on her eyelids, she let out a muffled groan from her pert pink nose.

"You're awake?"

Hearing the voice beside him, the person on the bed sat up and asked in a low voice, "How is it?"

"Everything went smoothly, except your bag was gloriously destroyed!"

"It's alright, it's just material possessions!"

"Now that you're awake, let's go!"

"Wait a minute!"

Seeing the hood turn towards him, the patient, now transformed into a goddess of light, pleaded, "Can I see her again?"

"Sure! But... you can only watch from a distance, you can't get close to her."

The woman nodded at the hood and then asked, "How long will it take?"

"Probably several thousand days and nights!"

"Thud"

"Thud"

Looking at the water stains on the floor, the hooded figure said in a low voice, "I don't want to separate you either, but..."

"I understand!"

"That...?"

"This is the last time, just let me be willful this once!"

"Um!"

After the hooded man finished speaking, the patient picked up another cloak from his side and said, "Let's go!"

He nodded to the other person, then hooded himself and led the patient out of the room.

While Sky Dragon and his mentor were searching and exploring the jungle, four other Warriors of Hope also embarked on an adventure in a new era. However, this era wasn't friendly to everyone, and thus, a certain Dragon Slayer Mage found himself in trouble the moment he arrived. In other words, what people in the real world would call "landing and getting instantly killed"!

"The Iron Dragon's Roar"

"Puff!"

Using the recoil from his breath, Gajeel finally escaped the sticky swamp. But before he could catch his breath, a gaping maw appeared above his head.

"Iron Dragon Sword!"

"Pfft!"

Because of his hunger-induced rage, the grotesque boy exposed his fatal weakness, allowing him to escape danger once again thanks to his relatively proficient skills.

However, Gajeel's luck ended there, as a cunning hunter who had been observing him for a long time launched an attack on him.

"Whoosh!"

Upon hearing the whooshing sound from behind him, Gajeel immediately built a metal bridge on the spot.

"Sizzle!"

Although Gajeel reacted quickly, his shirt was still torn to shreds by the unidentified object.

"Iron Dragon Club!"

"Whoosh!"

Although Gajeel's moves were powerful, he was limited by his strength and could not unleash them to their full potential, so he did not hit his opponent.

"Call out!"

"Beep beep!"

As he watched the sharp, long spiky stick fly off to the side of the tree trunk, Gajeel's brows furrowed.

"What a ferocious fellow!"

"Whoosh!"

Almost the instant Gajeel finished speaking, another whooshing sound came from ahead.

"Hmph! Just because I'm not showing my power doesn't mean I'm a pushover!"

As he spoke, he slightly parted his feet and tilted his head back.

"The Iron Dragon's Roar"

"Whoosh"

"Beep beep!"

After blowing away the opponent's attack, the iron-blue wind column continued to fly forward.

"Whoosh!"

Seeing that things were not going well, the attacker immediately rolled to the side to dodge, and then fled into the dense forest on the side.

"Coo coo"

"Coo coo"

Just as Gajeel was preparing to press his advantage, his stomach suddenly protested, so he had to abandon his original plan and turn to walk towards his spoils.

Nine days after the beautiful green-haired woman was assassinated, Leila Heartfilia, the head of the Heartfilia Family, passed away due to a serious illness.

Three days later, the Heartfilia Family held a grand funeral for him.

"Tick-tock"

"Tick-tock"

Looking at the doll washed by the rain, Jude said in a low voice, "That child didn't abandon you on purpose. She just couldn't bear the shock, so she left you here."

As he spoke, the blond man picked up the toy and wiped away the water droplets from its surface.

"If you have the chance, I hope you can stay by that child's side again. After all, you are her only friend and her only sister."

"Da da"

"Da da"

Just as the blond man finished speaking, footsteps sounded in the distance.

"Is this child Lucy's sister?"

Jude nodded as he looked at the silver-haired boy standing not far away.

"That's right!"

"Keep her safe; Lucy might need her someday!" (Old Suo)

"That's what I think too!" (Jude)

"Mr. Sordil, you didn't come to see me just for her, did you? (Jude)"

"I will be going to the Western Continent soon, and I'm afraid I won't have time to teach Lucy magic, so I'm here to ask for leave and say goodbye."

Upon hearing this, Jude pondered for a few seconds, then said, "I'm entrusting that child to you!"

"You don't need to tell me that!"

When do you plan to set off?

"Now!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a silver light began to flash in the air, and then the silver-haired boy disappeared without a trace from Jude's sight.

"Heh! You're such an impatient person!"

After finishing his reflections, Jude shook his head and then walked towards the storeroom with his 'daughter' in his hand.

"Um?"

Seeing her older brother's furrowed brow, Wendy asked, puzzled, "Jellal, what's wrong?"

"Wendy, I have something urgent to take care of, so we have to part ways!"

Upon hearing this, tears welled up in the blue-haired girl's eyes, and she immediately threw herself into the Blue-haired boy's arms.

"No! I don't want to!"

Gently ruffling the other's hair, the Blue-haired boy said softly, "Wendy, we really have to part ways, but don't worry, I'll get you to a safe place. By the way, there's a guild beyond this forest, let's go there!"

"Don't want!"

"Jellal, I don't want to be separated from you!"

Looking at the octopus wrapped around his leg, the Blue-haired boy sighed helplessly, then began his earnest persuasion. However, Jellal didn't stay put to offer advice; instead, he continued his persuasion as he walked towards their destination.

"Buzz!"

When the Blue-haired boy rushed to the location he sensed, a small, silvery-white dot of light was standing beneath the spatial vortex.

"Um?"

While the boy was frowning and staring intently, the spatial vortex gradually shrank under the illumination of the silvery-white light spots, and finally disappeared completely.

Upon witnessing this scene, the boy was instantly filled with shock.

"Call out!"

Just as the boy was about to examine the silvery-white light closely, the other party suddenly disappeared into the sky.

"Hey~~ young man!"

Hearing the sudden sound beside him, the Blue-haired boy immediately jumped to the side and back, creating distance between himself and his opponent.

"Who are you?"

"They were staring at her just a moment ago, and now they don't even recognize her. How heartless!"

Looking at the resentful silver-haired creature (referred to as "creature" due to gender ambiguity), the Blue-haired boy shuddered. (Sordil: You there, show yourself! How can I, a fine man, be gender-ambiguous!)

"You... you are..."

"That's right! I'm the one who just patched up the sky!" (Great Owl: Holy crap! The one who patched up the sky? Why don't you just say you're Nuwa from another era?!)

"Can you stop Anima?"

"Heh! It's just a Space Magic with decent power, nothing special!"

Seeing the other person's nonchalant demeanor, the Blue-haired boy was filled with shock and disbelief.

"I never imagined Asland would have such a terrifyingly powerful expert!" (Jellal's inner thoughts)

"Hehe! Little brother, did I scare you? (Old Suo's inner thoughts)"

Let these two stare at each other for a while, and then I'll explain to everyone why someone who should have gone straight to the Western Continent is here.

Actually, Old Suo had already arrived in the Western Continent and met Brandish, and they were already living a life of mutual dependence... Oops! Sorry, slip of the tongue! And a life of mutual dependence as master and disciple. But one night, when His Majesty the Emperor was sleeping, he suddenly dreamed of Crimson from the guild, and only then did he remember that he still had a historical problem to solve.

So after leaving Brandish with his homework, he hurriedly went out to find the Your Highness the Prince.

Instead of finding the Prince, this guy stumbled upon the Anima, which was in the midst of a riot. As a transmigrator, His Majesty the Emperor was well aware of the dangers of the Anima, so he immediately took action to seal the wormhole. And then... that's what just happened.

Okay, explanation complete, screen unblocked!

After processing the information in his mind and the emotions in his heart, the Blue-haired boy asked, "Just who are you?"

"Young man, shouldn't you state your own identity before asking about someone else's?"

After a few seconds of contemplation, the Blue-haired boy nodded and said, "My name is Mystogan. I am a wandering mage who is currently on a study tour."

"Sordil, an active S-Class Mage from Fairy Tail!"

Fairy Tail?

"Ah~ that's the name of my guild. You can check it out if you're interested!"

"Okay, I've got it. I'll go when I have time!"

"Um!"

Just as Old Suo was about to depart on the Silver Express, the Blue-haired boy suddenly asked, "Sordil, are there any other people in Fairy Tail with the same abilities as you?"

"I haven't seen it before, but it's hard to say now, because I haven't been back for a long time!"

"I see!"

"Buzz!"

Just as the Blue-haired boy ... uh, Mystogan was muttering to himself, a flash of silver light suddenly appeared ahead, accompanied by a gust of wind.

When Mystogan opened his eyes again, the silver-haired boy had disappeared.

"Amazing!"

After finishing his reflections, Mystogan retraced his steps, but his destination was not the Cat's Inn Fairy Tail, which he had just heard about.

And so... under someone's influence, the main characters began to gather together, and those who were supposed to fade into obscurity began to carry out their missions.

But what will this world ultimately become...? Heh! Same old story... I haven't decided yet, so... I'm outta here! Outta here!
