The three from Blue Pegasus also took the opportunity to quickly clean themselves up.
They reappeared with handsome faces, facing the Fairy Tail group.
"The Tri Men of Blue Pegasus!"
Lucy shouted, her face flushed as she looked at the three handsome men, completely forgetting how reluctant she had been just moments before.
Behind them were three professional hosts, who, through their routine, provided such attentive service to Lucy and Erza that Natsu and Gray's eyebrows twitched, finding it utterly incomprehensible.
Laxus and Zorn, meanwhile, were resting quietly on a makeshift sofa. After all, Zorn had been continuously using magic during their journey, and Laxus had been speeding along with lightning the whole way.
"You all, that's enough. We are here to discuss a plan." A magnetic voice came from the second floor. Erza, who had been somewhat enjoying herself, changed her expression, and her head stiffly, slowly turned towards the stairs.
A short man with orange-red hair and a very peculiar appearance slid down the stairs, confirming her suspicion.
"I… I didn't expect you to participate in this operation."
Erza trembled all over, as if suppressing some uncomfortable symptom.
"My darling, I miss you so much. I am Ichiya, shining for you."
Ichiya of the Blue Pegasus Guild struck a bizarre pose, expressing his feelings to Erza.
"Darling?" Lucy and Happy gasped as if they had heard something terrifying, their eyes darting between the stunned Erza and Ichiya, who was still posing.
"So, it's Master Ichiya's girlfriend. We were truly rude." The three handsome men were direct, immediately bowing to Erza in apology.
"I refuse." Erza strongly rejected the title. She truly couldn't handle this narcissistic and eccentric person.
"Who is this weirdo?" Natsu asked, looking at the peculiar individual.
"This is our guild's Master Ichiya! You don't know him?!" The three handsome men glared angrily at Natsu and Gray.
"You all, pay attention to your manners!"
"Yes, Master Ichiya!" The three handsome men immediately composed themselves, becoming refined once more.
Lucy and Happy also complained, noting how consistent the few people were in both their addresses and actions.
Ichiya, however, touched his head, flicked his shiny hair, and looked at the Fairy Tail group with a dreamy gaze: "I have heard about your matters!"
"Erza and Miss Lucy, and Ten Wizard Saints Zorn, as well as Laxus, I apologize for my rudeness. I didn't expect Fairy Tail to send you all. It seems this mission will conclude perfectly."
Ichiya directly ignored Natsu and Gray, causing the two to glare angrily.
"You annoying handsome men from Blue Pegasus, can you stop bothering our princesses?"
"Do you want to taste our fists?!"
"You two men can leave!" Ichiya responded indifferently, but this only infuriated Natsu and Gray further, and the two groups faced off.
"Alright, that's enough!!! The Lamia Scale people have arrived."
Zorn, however, stopped the situation from escalating further with a resounding voice, rising with Laxus to look at the three people who had just appeared at the door.
"Lyon, Sherry (Doll Magic), Jura (one of the Ten Wizard Saints)"
"Long time no see, Jura!"
"This is Laxus, one of the guild's ace Magicians." Zorn walked up to him, introducing Laxus to Jura.
"Long time no see. This must be Master Makarov's grandson. It seems this mission will be foolproof."
The three of them started chatting casually on the side.
Gray and Lyon silently watched each other, while Sherry greeted Lucy with her Doll Magic, indicating that she was now very strong.
...
"So, that means all three guilds are here, only the Cait Shelter guys haven't arrived yet!" Jura, the Iron Rock, scanned the room and said calmly.
At this moment, an anxious figure was running towards them from outside.
"No, they're already here!" Zorn said, looking at Wendy running towards them.
A small figure with blue hair anxiously ran into the villa, stumbled, and was about to fall. Zorn immediately used magic to steady her and catch her.
"Tha… Thank you!" Wendy's cute voice still carried a hint of shyness as she apologized to Zorn.
"H-hello, Everyone, I'm sorry I'm late. I'm the Magician sent by Cait Shelter. My name is Wendy. Please guide me!" Wendy introduced herself a little shyly.
"A child?"
"A girl?"
"They sent a little girl for such a large-scale battle!"
Several people behind them were discussing animatedly, finding it incredible, which made Wendy feel a bit at a loss.
"It's okay, Wendy. They're just a bit surprised that you're so strong at such a young age!" Zorn squatted down, patting Wendy's head and saying earnestly.
"Is that true, Master Zorn?" Wendy's mood immediately brightened when she saw it was Zorn, but there was still a hint of uncertainty on her face.
"Oh, Wendy, don't just believe any man's sweet talk, and Wendy didn't come alone!" A voice like a young older sister came from the doorway, and Carla stepped between Zorn and Wendy with her short legs.
Happy, meanwhile, was completely smitten, staring at the suddenly appearing female cat with hearts in his eyes. He had thought he was the only cat of his kind in the world.
"Hahaha, you're right, Wendy. She's right, don't just believe other men's sweet talk, but my words weren't empty either!"
"Believe in yourself, you are truly strong!"
Zorn burst into laughter as he watched Carla gaze at him with a wary expression.
"I, I know many magic spells that can assist in battle, so I should be able to help you. Please don't exclude me." Wendy's nervousness also eased considerably with Zorn's comfort, and her words became a bit more confident, though her voice still held a hint of shyness.
"I'm really sorry, Wendy. We were just a little shocked, and we absolutely don't mean to underestimate you. Please guide us in the future."
Erza was the first to apologize to Wendy.
The three handsome men immediately came forward, pouring tea and water, very solicitously.
Only Natsu was on the side, trying to recall where he had heard the name Wendy before.
