Dozens of soldiers wearing Magic Council uniforms, led by a purple-haired man, surrounded the place with serious expressions.
"Is he from Magic Council?"
Erza frowned, took a step forward, and stood in front of everyone.
"I am the captain of Magic Council Enforcement Unit, Lahar."
The purple-haired man pushed up his glasses and scanned the messy battlefield.
His eyes stayed on Lu Chongwei for a moment, with deep fear.
"According to the order of Magic Council, we want to arrest the criminals related to this incident."
Lahar waved his hand, and the soldiers immediately walked towards the remnants of Oración Seis who fell on the ground.
Finally, Lahar's eyes fell on Hoteye.
"Richard, also known as Hoteye, you are also on the arrest list."
Jura stood up suddenly, his generous body blocking Hoteye.
"Wait a minute! Lord Richard has repented during the battle, and he even helped us fight against Nirvana!"
Jura's voice is calm and powerful.
"Now that his kindness has awakened, can't Magic Council be accommodating?"
Hoteye looked at Jura, with a gentle smile on that square face.
He gently pushed Jura's hand away and slowly walked to Lahar.
"Mr. Jura, thank you for your kindness."
Hoteye's voice is no longer full of greed as before, but instead reveals a kind of relief.
"But I did commit an unforgivable crime before, and being punished is the price I deserve."
Hoteye raised his head and looked at the smoke gradually dissipating over the magma lake.
"I just want to have the confidence to find my brother, Wally, after I start over."
Hoteye's eyes are full of longing.
"For him, I am willing to atone for my sins."
At this moment, Erza, who was standing aside, suddenly froze.
"You just said... what is your brother's name?"
Erza walked quickly to Hoteye, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
Hoteye was stunned and answered softly.
"Wally, Wally·Bumanan."
Erza smiled gently.
"If it's Wally who has a square face and admires the 'hardcore' style, I think I know him."
Hoteye's body froze suddenly.
"You... you've seen him?"
His voice trembled violently, and his hands tightly grasped the corners of his clothes.
Erza nodded.
"Wally is my friend. We once stayed together at Tower of Heaven."
Erza looked at Hoteye, and his tone became extremely gentle.
"He is living a good life now and is traveling around the world with his companions to see the vast world he dreamed of."
Hoteye stood there blankly.
The square face that had always looked a little funny suddenly shed two lines of hot tears.
"Alive... He's still alive..."
Hoteye fell to his knees on the ground, covered his face with his hands, and burst into tears with great excitement.
"It's great... it's really great..."
Vast Forest The gunpowder smoke completely dissipated, and the earth once covered by magma gradually cooled down under the calming magic power.
Although everyone who attacked the coalition forces was injured, their faces showed the joy of surviving the disaster.
In front of that golden sea of fire that could destroy heaven and earth, any darkness seemed so small.
"Brother Lu Chongwei, sister Erza, everyone... go to Cait Shelter and take a rest!"
Wendy rubbed his red and swollen eyes, a pure smile bloomed on his face.
Her blue twin ponytails swayed like a cheerful little rabbit.
"Cait Shelter, that sounds like a lot of delicious food!"
Natsu As soon as he heard that there was a place to rest, he instantly came to life on the spot, and the scarf that was originally burnt to black was re-wrapped.
"Love! I want to eat big fish too!"
Happy spun around in mid-air, drooling.
So, under the leadership of Wendy, everyone marched towards Cait Shelter's residence.
Since Nirvana was destroyed, the originally oppressive air in the sea of trees became particularly fresh.
Not long after, a group of wooden houses full of exotic customs appeared in front of everyone.
The architectural style here is extremely simple, with cat-shaped totems and decorations hanging everywhere.
The members of Cait Shelter had already received the news and rushed out of the village to warmly welcome the triumphant heroes.
"Wendy, it's great that you're okay!"
"Is this Mage from Fairy Tail? It's really strong!"
Listening to the cheers of his companions, Wendy blushed in embarrassment and clutched Lu Chongwei's clothes tightly.
Lu Chongwei Looking at this peaceful guild, there was an inexplicable sense of dissonance in his heart.
This feeling was very light, but lingering, making him frown subconsciously.
However, before he could think about it, the sound of rapid footsteps interrupted his thoughts.
"Zhongwei! Come and help me see how this one looks like!"
Erza's voice came from a spacious wooden house, revealing extremely rare excitement.
Lu Chongwei rubbed his temples and walked in helplessly.
At this time, Erza was standing in front of a huge full-length mirror.
She was wearing a set of ethnic costumes with a very Cait Shelter style, an off-shoulder blouse paired with a long skirt with excellent drape, and a string of crisp Ginrei Kuchiki tied around her waist.
Titania, who was originally so heroic, now looks a bit more feminine.
"It's pretty."
Lu Chongwei leaned against the door frame and made a casual comment.
"Really?"
Erza's eyes lit up, and then the magic light on his body flashed.
"What about this one!"
The next second, she put on a tight-fitting cat-ear costume, and there was even a slender tail on her back.
Lu Chongwei's mouth twitched. "... it's not bad."
"Then this one! And this one!"
"Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!"
Erza seemed to have turned on some incredible switch, and Requip Magic was used to its extreme.
From gorgeous evening gowns to smart hunter outfits, from cute maid dresses to exaggerated armor suits.
"The twelfth set, this color is too bright." Lu Chongwei yawned.
"The thirtieth set, is the neckline too low?" Lu Chongwei rubbed his eyes.
"Set 48, Erza, are you sure this can really be worn?" Lu Chongwei began to feel his scalp numb.
Three whole hours!
Erza tried on fifty-eight sets of clothes!
Lu Chongwei sat on the chair, feeling even more tired than Oración Seis alone.
He looked at Erza still walking in and out of the fitting room with great interest, and his whole body almost turned to stone.
"Zhongwei, what do you think of this..."
"It looks good. It looks very good. It's tailor-made for you. Can we change to the next step?"
Lu Chongwei directly turned on the repeater mode, his eyes were dull.
Lucy on the side looked at Lu Chongwei's lifeless look and couldn't help holding his stomach and snickering.
"It turns out that Ten Wizard Saints also has troubles sometimes."
