Wendy sighed in relief, "It's finally over."
This was her first official battle.
She was terribly scared, but thinking about everyone in the Guild being turned into a lacrima, she gathered her courage and participated in the fight.
"Yeah. It's finally over. We actually defeated a Kingdom. That's unbelievable." Lucy also relaxed.
Fighting an entire Kingdom had put immense pressure on her, and she hadn't known what to do, but seeing everyone else jump in, she followed suit.
Thinking about it now, she couldn't help but feel her legs go weak.
Fortunately, Takeshi was here, and the Army hadn't fully gathered in the Royal City. Otherwise, she didn't know if Takeshi would be fine, but she definitely would have been doomed.
Happy said, "It's over here. Let's hurry back and see how everyone is doing."
Wendy excitedly said, "That's right. I wonder how everyone is. Let's hurry back."
Although the time they had been separated wasn't very long, she had never felt such an urgent desire to see everyone.
"Wait! Are you forgetting something?" Carla reminded them.
"Forgetting what?"
"Nothing."
Just then, a sapling broke through the soil.
Immediately after, the tree grew rapidly, transforming into a Guild in the blink of an eye.
"Fairy Tail?!"
Gajeel and Lucy were startled when they saw the emblem on the Guild building. Why was there another Fairy Tail here?
At this moment, the Fairy Tail Guild doors opened and a group of people rushed out.
"We're here!"
"Everyone from Earth Land!"
"We've come to help!"
"Natsu! Happy! We're here!" Lisanna shouted towards Natsu and Happy.
"Lisanna!"
Only then did Natsu and Happy remember. They had completely forgotten about Lisanna just now.
Edolas Lucy looked at the surrounding scene. "Huh? Where is this? Isn't this the Royal Capital?"
The members of the Edolas Fairy Tail were all somewhat stunned after coming out.
"It's me."
Lucy didn't react at first, but then she realized. 'Isn't that me?'
Edolas Lucy was also stunned to see Lucy. Although she knew there was another version of herself, seeing her with her own eyes was still surprising.
Carla said, "This is the Royal Capital, but the battle has already ended."
"The Royal Capital?!"
Everyone was shocked.
This place, ruined like a wasteland, was actually the extremely luxurious Royal Capital of Edolas.
"Wait! You said the battle ended?!" Edolas Lucy focused on Carla's words.
"Yes. The battle is over. The Edolas Kingdom lost."
"Lost?!"
"How is that possible?!"
"That powerful Edolas Kingdom actually..."
"Did you really defeat the King of Edolas?!"
The members of Fairy Tail couldn't believe it. They had always scattered like mice when facing the powerful Edolas Kingdom Army, yet the other side defeated the Edolas Kingdom with just a few people. This was simply unbelievable.
At this point, everyone observed carefully and saw countless members of the Edolas Kingdom Army lying fallen around them, as well as many Edolas soldiers who had already laid down their weapons. They realized that the Edolas Kingdom might truly have been defeated.
"This is great!"
"The King of Edolas has been defeated!"
"This is truly wonderful!"
Tears of excitement streamed down the faces of almost everyone in Fairy Tail.
For years, they had lived in constant fear, and countless comrades had been killed by the Kingdom.
Now that the Kingdom was finally destroyed, they no longer had to live the anxious, constantly fleeing life. No one could understand how excited they felt at this moment.
"Natsu, where is everyone else? Where are my older sister and brother?" Lisanna asked anxiously.
After hearing Takeshi's words, she initially suppressed herself, but realizing that her older sister and brother might turn into Magic Power and that she, as the younger sister, had caused her older sister to be unable to use magic and her older brother to become a third-rate Mage, she couldn't hold back.
She wanted to rescue them herself. She couldn't stand by if her older sister and brother were in danger.
But just as she was packing her things to leave, everyone in Fairy Tail stopped her, refusing to let her go.
Even though Takeshi had displayed tremendous strength earlier, they didn't believe that just a few people could defeat the mighty Edolas Kingdom. After all, countless people had tried to challenge the Edolas Kingdom over the years, all ending in failure.
If Lisanna went along, she would only become another corpse.
But how could Lisanna stay behind?
Her older sister, older brother, and everyone in the Guild were in danger.
In the end, everyone from Fairy Tail came to help. If things continued as they were, Fairy Tail and its members only had death awaiting them. Dying sooner or later was still death, so they might as well fight the enemy before dying.
Thus, everyone came together. They originally expected to face the massive army of the Edolas Kingdom upon arrival, but they never expected it to end so quickly.
"Since you've arrived, let's go back." Takeshi said.
Since Lisanna had come, it saved him the trouble of looking for her.
Full Body Takeover: Ulquiorra Cifer!
Takeshi quickly transformed into Ulquiorra.
Snap!
Takeshi snapped his fingers.
Buzz!
A rift appeared in space, which then began to tear vertically, revealing a mysterious opening.
"This is..."
Lucy immediately recognized it. This was the magic Takeshi had used to send Loke back to the Celestial Spirit World.
"What is this?! Whoa!"
Natsu curiously walked inside, but as soon as he entered, he started to fall in. Takeshi was quick to grab Natsu's scarf.
"Idiot. Inside is the Gap of Time and Space. Up, down, left, and right are all endless space. If you get lost in there, you're dead."
"What?!"
Natsu was startled, not expecting the inside to be so dangerous.
Takeshi stepped inside, quickly forming a platform of Reishi beneath his feet.
"Alright, everyone come in. Don't fall off this platform."
Warned by Natsu's previous mistake, everyone immediately walked onto the platform cautiously.
Natsu looked at the Reishi support beneath his feet and grew curious again. "This thing looks really thin. It won't break, right?"
Lucy immediately warned him, "Don't kick it again. If we fall out of here, we're all finished."
Last time, inside the ruins on Galuna Island, Natsu stepped recklessly, causing the floor to shatter and everyone to fall.
"Mira-nee... Elfman-nii..."
Lisanna looked at this world's Mirajane and Elfman.
"Although we knew long ago that you weren't the Lisanna we knew, we never said it aloud. We're sorry." Edolas Elfman patted Lisanna's head and said.
Edolas Mirajane couldn't stop her tears, but she smiled as she took Lisanna's hand and said, "Go back to your original world, Lisanna. You are just as gentle and considerate as the Lisanna who passed away, so don't make your real older brother and sister sad anymore."
"Mira-nee! Elfman-nii!"
Tears flowed continuously down Lisanna's face as she reluctantly stepped into the Gap of Space-Time.
Takeshi turned back to look at Mystogan. "Mystogan, aren't you coming with us?"
Mystogan shook his head. "No, this is my homeland. The Kingdom is in turmoil now, and I can't just leave."
"The Prince has grown up."
Panther Lily was very relieved to hear Mystogan say this.
"Say hello to everyone in the Guild for me."
"I see. Then, goodbye."
Swoosh!
The hole closed, leaving no trace in space.
