Half an hour passed in a flash. The Great Demon King Natsu was finally defeated, and Mystogan stood among the crowd, receiving everyone's cheers.
"We won!"
"The Prince defeated the Demon King!"
"We're saved!"
Until this moment, the people of Edolas had accepted Mystogan from the bottom of their hearts. Now he was a hero, and the kingdom needed a hero!
Suddenly, the bodies of the Fairy Tail members lying on the ground began to burst with golden light, gradually floating up toward the sky.
Seeing Irene about to use her magic, Acnologia explained, "There is no need to resist. Edolas's magic is flowing toward Aslant, and we will return along with it."
At this time, not only were the people and objects of Aslant flying into the sky, but even the Exceeds began to turn into light and head for Aslant.
"Goodbye, my Edolas (Aslant) self!"
"Good luck!"
The Fairy Tail Guilds of both worlds, along with everyone who fought together, all showed smiles and waved goodbye.
The ordinary people of Edolas, seeing this scene and not knowing the situation, thought the Demon King had been completely destroyed and cheered, "Long live the Prince!"
Mystogan looked up at his comrades gradually disappearing into the horizon, thinking silently in his heart: "Farewell, my family..."
He turned to look at the citizens of the kingdom, his expression turning firm again as he raised his arm high: "The Demon King has been defeated by me! Even without magic, we humans can live just fine!"
"Citizens of the kingdom, we will create a better new world together!"
Looking at that steadfast figure, all the confusion and fear of the Edolas citizens were dispelled, and they let out earth-shattering cheers.
Led by the Prince, they would surely head toward a better future!
...Aslant
By now, everyone had returned to Magnolia Town. Looking at the familiar town, everyone gathered together and shouted excitedly.
"We're back!"
"The guild is still the same as before, that's great!"
"And Lisanna!"
Everyone looked at the hesitating girl, reached out their hands, and smiled: "Lisanna, welcome back!"
Looking at her familiar family, Lisanna's eyes suddenly turned red, and tears flowed uncontrollably as she choked out: "Everyone, I'm back!"
Mirajane reached out and hugged Lisanna, her eyes filled with tears as she said softly: "Welcome home!"
Elfman ran over, hugged both girls, and wailed loudly: "Big sister, little sister!"
Seeing this scene, everyone smiled knowingly. These three siblings were finally reunited.
Natsu cheered: "Lisanna is back, we must celebrate properly!"
Happy shouted excitedly: "Aye!"
Makarov wiped away his tears and laughed loudly: "To celebrate Lisanna's safe return, I'll allow you all to indulge yourselves just this once!"
"Yay!"
Everyone jumped up in excitement... The trip to Edolas had completely ended. The Exceed cats had explained the reason to Carla and had already gone to other places to find new homes.
And Panther Lily chose to join Fairy Tail, becoming Gajeel's cat.
Now Gajeel was also a Dragon Slayer with a cat. He showed off all day to Acnologia, who didn't have a cat, until he and his cat were both pressed into the dirt before finally stopping.
By now, the guild was in a fever pitch, with everyone drinking and making a mess after getting drunk.
Acnologia looked at Erza and asked how things went with that Knightwalker, who won and who lost?
Erza said confidently: "Is there even a need to ask? Of course, I won!"
Since she was a child, her magic power had been significantly higher than her peers'. As long as her will was firm enough, no one could defeat her.
However, she didn't kill Knightwalker. Although Knightwalker had done many wrong things, she really couldn't bring herself to kill someone with a face exactly like her own. It would be left to Mystogan to handle later.
"Speaking of which..."
Erza stared at Irene and asked, "Why are you so strong? That terrifying magic power that can suppress a whole country alone... don't tell me it's some ancestral magic from a fallen noble family again."
Leaning in Acnologia's arms, Irene explained calmly, "Of course, it's the inherited strength of our family line. Otherwise, why would you be so strong?"
Although the answer was a bit nonsensical, Erza thought about it: "That makes some sense."
She had already been an S-Class Mage last year. By the time she reached her mom's age, she might even be stronger than her.
Was it really ancestral powerful magic?
Lucy walked over with a wine glass, leaning on Irene's lap with a red face and acting spoiled: "Sister Irene, come have a drink with me!"
"Since little Lucy has invited me..."
Irene smiled and pulled Lucy into her arms, picking up a glass of wine and pouring it down Lucy's throat.
Erza, who was drinking fruit juice, almost spat it out seeing this: "Lucy invited you to drink, and you just poured it all into her?"
Now, Lucy, who already had a low alcohol tolerance, was unconscious.
Irene said as a matter of course: "I didn't want to drink, so of course I let little Lucy take my place."
Erza was speechless. With a personality like that, how have you lived this long without being beaten to death?
Gray and Natsu ran over with their arms around each other, shouting excitedly: "Acnologia, Erza, come have a drink with us!"
"And us too!"
Mirajane walked over smiling with Lisanna and Elfman.
It was Acnologia who had informed them early on that Lisanna hadn't died, allowing her to recover her magic.
It was also he who told Lisanna that they were about to return to Aslant, giving Lisanna time to say goodbye to the Mirajane and Elfman of the other world.
Acnologia didn't spoil the fun. He raised his glass with everyone and smiled: "Then let's do it together!"
Irene threw the fast-asleep little Lucy onto the sofa and picked up a wine glass: "Then I'll join too!"
Bickslow noticed and immediately shouted: "You guys are actually gathered together drinking in secret!"
"We're coming too!"
"Everyone together!"
Everyone cheered and raised their glasses... The banquet lasted a day and a night before ending. When everyone woke up and saw the dilapidated guild, they couldn't help but wail.
We're doomed!
Sure enough, that familiar voice almost broke through the roof: "Everyone, clean this place up!"
Makarov was furious. Celebrate if you must, but can't you celebrate without smashing the guild?
A bunch of troublesome brats!
Everyone immediately stood in a row, terrified, and apologized in unison: "We were wrong, Master!"
Makarov looked at them all pretending to be sorry, feeling helpless. They admit their mistakes but never change, right!
"Hurry up and go!"
...Time came to the third day.
After the guild was repaired, it looked brand new.
Erza immediately teamed up with Lucy to beat Natsu up. This bastard had kicked them twice on the butt; don't think it would pass so easily.
That night, Natsu was covered in bandages and used crutches, looking like he was about to kick the bucket.
However, when Gildarts saw him, he gave a mischievous smile and kicked his crutch away.
Thinking he could fool him by acting pitiful? Who did he think he was fooling?
Sure enough, once the crutch was gone, Natsu was immediately revitalized and started fighting with Gildarts in a rage.
