"Tell me, just how heinous is this Selene, that you would cross worlds to seek help from our Fairy Tail?!"
Just as Mystogan was recounting countless problems concerning Selene to Makarov, a voice, lazy yet somewhat enchanting, with a hint of playfulness upon closer listening, slowly echoed in Mystogan's ear.
"Haha, 'Moon God Dragon' Selene is truly heinous in so many ways!"
"She, 'Moon God Dragon' Selene, knew that Elentir was on the verge of destruction due to magic overload! She also knew that only Edolas, through the super-dimensional magic Anima (Soul) controlled by the human empire, could save it!"
"Originally, this would have been a win-win situation! Elentir's overloaded magic would be released, and Edolas's missing magic would be replenished!"
"But because of 'Moon God Dragon' Selene's stubbornness, both worlds are now heading towards destruction! Coupled with my extreme father, seeing that Elentir's magic could not be seized, he turned his attention to the more distant Earth Land. What could have been resolved between two worlds eventually escalated into a problem involving the future fate of three major worlds."
In Mystogan's eyes, Selene was problematic, and his father was equally problematic.
In Mystogan's view, the optimal solution right now was...
To use Fairy Tail to defeat his father and help him gain control of the human empire in Edolas. This was his first priority.
Next, if Fairy Tail could help him defeat 'Moon God Dragon' Selene and drive Selene out of Elentir, that would, of course, be the best outcome!
If even Fairy Tail couldn't deal with Selene...
At the very least, he needed to reach a reconciliation with 'Moon God Dragon' Selene, the de facto ruler of Elentir, and gain the opportunity to extract magic from Elentir to Edolas.
If none of the above could be achieved...
Mystogan would use his own methods to stop his father, who was attempting to steal magic from Earth Land. He chose to respect the fate of Edolas. He believed that through human hands, even if Edolas had no more magic in the future, he could still lead humanity to a prosperous life.
Well, it must be said, Mystogan's ideals were quite grand.
"So, I have so many problems?!"
"I'm so sorry!"
"I didn't even know myself~"
Selene said, walking over to the bar counter. She looked at Makarov, who was sitting at the bar, and gave him a charming smile, softly saying, "Master Makarov, a glass of Mizuwari, please~"
"Yo! Selene, you're here!"
Makarov, hearing this, forced a smile and greeted Selene.
"Selene?"
Mystogan, hearing this, turned his head to look. When he saw 'Moon God Dragon' Selene, with her unparalleled beauty and perfect figure, standing beside him, the expression on his face stiffened. He thought to himself, "It's over!"
Mystogan never expected that after all his painstaking efforts to break through the seal Selene and Eileen had placed on the Ishgar continent...
And finally arriving at the Fairy Tail Guild in Magnolia Town...
He would actually encounter his biggest opponent for this trip, the evil 'Moon God Dragon' Selene, right here.
"You speak, I'm listening!"
Selene glanced at Mystogan, who seemed on the verge of collapse, her eyes sparkling with endless amusement.
"Oh, right, there's something I forgot to tell you..."
"I'm also a member of the Fairy Tail Guild."
Selene said, and in front of Mystogan, she revealed the shining Fairy Tail Guild mark on her forearm.
"This..."
Mystogan looked at the mark on Selene's arm and simply laughed.
Yes, everything was over!
The world was about to be destroyed~
Originally, Mystogan had placed his hopes on Fairy Tail...
But he never expected that Selene herself was a member of the Fairy Tail Guild.
Mystogan had also originally intended to stop his old father from setting his sights on Elentir, but now it seemed there was no need to bother.
Simply because Mystogan was certain that his old father would not be able to handle Earth Land, precisely because 'Moon God Dragon' Selene was here.
"Mystogan, what's wrong?!"
Wendy looked up, gazing at the dejected Mystogan, and asked in confusion.
"It's nothing, Wendy."
"I just suddenly realized that all my efforts were meaningless."
Mystogan looked up and smiled, like a walking corpse, and walked to the side of the table.
"Nuh uh!"
"What's with all the dejection?!"
"When you're dejected, when you're unwilling! Just drink!"
"Alcohol is a good thing; it can get rid of all your worries."
"When you've been in the Fairy Tail Guild for a while, you'll realize that life is like this: there's nothing difficult in the world, as long as you're willing to give up!"
Just as Mystogan had given up hope, Cana, carrying a barrel of alcohol, came up to him. She casually put her arm around Mystogan's shoulder, raised the barrel in her hand, and poured it towards Mystogan.
"No! No! No!"
"I don't drink..."
Mystogan looked at the barrel Cana offered, waving his hands repeatedly. His expression was flustered, not seeming to be faking it.
"How can there be 'can't drink' when it comes to alcohol?!"
"Just drink it..."
Without a word, Cana shoved the cup into Mystogan's arms.
And so.
Ten minutes later...
"I'm telling you..."
"You guys listen to me..."
"It's just that..."
"Never mind, I won't say it... It's all in the drink!"
Mystogan said, downing the alcohol in his cup.
Hmm, before drinking, Edolas belonged to everyone, and I wanted to fight for the people.
After drinking, Edolas belonged to him, Mystogan. He was the Prince of Edolas, and he fought for himself.
"Just drink!"
Mystogan raised the cup in his hand and sang to the alcohol.
At this point, Mystogan's assimilation rate into the Fairy Tail Guild had reached over fifty percent!
"Mystogan?!"
After Mystogan was pulled by Cana and others and assimilated into a member of the Fairy Tail Guild, only Wendy was left, small, helpless, and pitiful.
"You're a Dragon Slayer, right?!"
Just as Wendy was at a loss...
