Chapter 510: Yes, Fairy Tail from Evan’s World Has Already Conquered Their World

"Good heavens! Open your eyes and take a good look around you. My enormous guild has been destroyed just like this!"

"I beg you, tell me honestly, after going through so much trouble to travel through time and space and come to our world, what exactly did you come here for?!"

"You used the Eclipse Gate to come to our world. Was it really to help our Fairy Tail Guild?"

"Why do I feel that you came to this world with completely ill intentions?!"

Makarov from this world looked at the shattered bricks scattered all over the ground, the guild members lying unconscious, and the broken walls and ruins all around him, his eyes widening.

Makarov simply watched silently as anger continuously rose within his heart. Finally, when his anger reached its peak, Makarov turned his head toward Evan and the others and loudly questioned them.

Originally, when Fairy Tail from another world traveled through the space-time tunnel to their world to help them fight against the dragons, Makarov had been very happy, and at the same time, very relieved…

Especially when Makarov looked at Natsu, Erza, Mirajane, and the others from Evan's world, those familiar faces, Makarov knew that his path had been correct. Even though they were in different worlds, even though they belonged to different Fairy Tail Guilds, they possessed the same heart! Fairy Tail across the multiverse was a family!

In Makarov's view, Fairy Tail should have been like this…

However, when the Mages of Fairy Tail from that other world began laughing arrogantly while throwing heavy punches, knocking down one Mage after another belonging to their world's Fairy Tail Guild and bulldozing through the guild they were so proud of, Makarov's heart collapsed…

At the same time, it was precisely at this moment that a huge question mark appeared deep within Makarov's heart. He really wanted to ask Evan and the Mages belonging to the Fairy Tail Guild from another world who followed Evan's lead: Did these lunatics really come to this world to help this world's Fairy Tail?!

No matter how Makarov looked at it, he felt that the reason Evan and the others had come to this world was purely to cause trouble. In Makarov's view, Evan and the others had simply been afraid of ruining their own world, so they had come to ruin another world instead…

"Guild Master Makarov, what are you talking about?!"

"We're members of the Fairy Tail Guild. We received a distress call from Fairy Tail Guilds of other worlds. How could we possibly stand by and watch them die?!"

"Besides, Guild Master Makarov, you saw it yourself. We were the ones who dealt with those ten thousand dragons. If it weren't for us, how do you think this disaster that threw Magnolia into chaos would have ended?!"

After hearing Makarov's words, Evan's expression changed slightly. What kind of truth was this Makarov spouting?! Of course they had come to this world to wreak havoc! What else could Fairy Tail do besides cause destruction?! Did he expect Fairy Tail to save the world? Don't make him laugh! The Fairy Tail demolition office had always only been responsible for fighting, smashing, and throwing things around. Everything else was none of their concern! However, Evan certainly would not admit this. He immediately put on a righteous expression and spoke firmly to Makarov.

"Er…" Makarov from this world was slightly stunned after hearing Evan's words. Looking at Evan's righteous expression, he actually began to hesitate. He muttered inwardly, "What Evan says does make some sense! If Evan and the others from another world's Fairy Tail hadn't arrived in time, there's absolutely no way our strength alone could have dealt with those ten thousand dragons. Could it be that I misunderstood Evan and the others? Perhaps Evan and the others really didn't come to cause trouble in this world?!"

"Exactly! Old Guild Master, you completely misunderstood us!"

"We went through so much trouble, traveling through time and space to come to this world. How could we possibly have come merely to save this world's Fairy Tail? We obviously came for those ten thousand dragons that were destroying the world!"

"After all, the dragons in our world are almost extinct! We can no longer hold the Dragon King Festival. In other words, whoever can take down those ten thousand dragons is the Dragon King of the new world! How could I possibly miss such a grand occasion?"

Immediately afterward, while Makarov was hesitating, Natsu stepped forward and picked up the conversation.

"Oh? Is that so? So I really did wrong you!" After hearing Natsu's words, a trace of daze appeared on Makarov's face. He looked at Natsu and the others with some apology, and with countless emotions in his heart, he said, "The true purpose of your coming to this world wasn't to protect this world, nor was it to save Fairy Tail! Actually, from beginning to end, your only purpose was those ten thousand dragons. After all, there are nearly thirty million people throughout the Kingdom of Fiore, yet even they aren't as important as the Dragon King Festival that only happens once every four hundred years. Regarding the fact that I accidentally misunderstood you, I apologize to you…"

"…My ass!"

At this point, Makarov's expression suddenly changed. The apology that had originally been on his face had long since disappeared, leaving only endless fury.

"You exposed yourselves, didn't you!"

"You let the cat out of the bag, didn't you!"

"You accidentally said what you really thought, didn't you?!"

Makarov looked at Natsu from Evan's world and continuously questioned him.

"Ah?!"

Natsu from Evan's world was completely dumbfounded and at a loss.

"Natsu, you can't just say those things!"

Lucy, standing beside Natsu, looked at the helpless Natsu, speechless. In the end, she could not help but remind Natsu.

Speaking of which, after the intense Conqueror's Haki erupted between Erza Belserion and Mirajane, the endless Haki shockwaves had not affected Lucy from Evan's world…

It seemed that after spending these two and a half years in Fairy Tail, Lucy had already developed a certain resistance to Conqueror's Haki. Lucy, who normally always felt the Conqueror's Haki of Irene and the others, felt that although Erza and Mirajane's Conqueror's Haki was strong, it was still too tender~

"Eh? Was I not supposed to say those things just now? But everything I said was true?!"

Natsu looked puzzled after hearing Lucy's words.

"Even the truth can't be said!"

Lucy explained anxiously.

"Really?"

"Since I can't say it…"

"Grandpa Guild Master, just pretend I didn't say anything just now!"

"Ah hahaha…"

Natsu still listened to Lucy very well. After learning that what he had just said should not have been said, he immediately laughed loudly at Makarov.

"Ah?!"

Makarov from this world immediately had veins bulging on his forehead. At this moment, Makarov's anger had completely reached its limit. Makarov felt that his intelligence had been insulted.

"Er…"

As for Lucy, when Lucy heard Natsu's provocative words, the corner of her eye continuously twitched. She had to admit that Natsu really was quite skilled at fanning the flames.

"You bunch of bastards! What kind of Light Mage Guild are you supposed to be?! You're practically a Dark Guild!"

"No! Even the darkest Dark Guild in the world isn't as dark as you!"

Makarov's eyes flashed with fury as he roared at Natsu and the others from Evan's world.

"Makarov, I understand you!"

As Makarov's voice fell, Precht walked up to Makarov from this world and heavily patted Makarov on the shoulder.

Originally, Precht had thought that the Dark Mage Guild he had founded, Grimoire Heart, was already the ceiling of Dark Guilds. However, after leaving Fairy Tail for nearly twenty years and bringing the Dark Guild Grimoire Heart that he was so proud of back to Fairy Tail, he finally understood what it meant for a lesser wizard to stand beside a great one! The darkness he had created was simply insignificant compared with Makarov's…

"I have never seen such an evil person!"

"No! Human beings can no longer be used to describe your evilness. Your evilness surpasses that of demons!"

Makarov ignored Precht from Evan's world and looked at the various Mages of the Fairy Tail Guild as he roared loudly.

"I understand!"

As Makarov's voice fell, Sera suddenly felt warmth in her heart. She really understood Makarov too well. Back then, she had been living quite comfortably in Zeref's library, in the Dark Mage Guild Tartaros, but then the Mages of the Fairy Tail Guild came knocking on their door!

Who understands?! Their group of great demons had holed up in Tartaros for four hundred years without doing anything bad. At most, they would run their mouths and say a few things about humans being lowly creatures. Then, the first time they actually tried to do something bad, before they even succeeded, they were wiped out by humans! Who could have known that at the time she had merely intended to warn Fairy Tail, only for Fairy Tail to slaughter her entire guild clean! Their methods were simply more cruel than demons. Anyway, she could never be so cruel in her entire life…

"Well said!"

At this, Evan immediately applauded Makarov. He looked at Makarov and agreed with him.

"So, since you think what I said is fine! Then stop causing trouble for this old man!"

After hearing Evan's words, the corner of Makarov's eye twitched slightly. Then, unable to endure it any longer, he roared at Evan.

"This is really infuriating!"

"I wonder which person exactly educated you into becoming like this?!"

After roaring at Evan and the others, Makarov first calmed himself down before helplessly speaking.

"We do know that…"

Precisely as Makarov from this world finished speaking, Evan and the others made way for Makarov.

And revealed the figure of Makarov from Evan's world.

"Hmm?!"

Makarov from this world was slightly stunned at first. Then, as if he had realized something, his expression instantly darkened.

"Yes, the person who educated us into becoming like this was none other…"

"It was you, Mr. Makarov!"

The various Mages of the Fairy Tail Guild from Evan's world pointed at Makarov from their world and spoke with smiles.

"Er…"

Thus, Makarov from this world fell silent.

"Sorry! I really didn't mean to backstab you…"

Makarov from Evan's world looked at the old man before him, who looked exactly like himself and could even be said to be the same person from a different space-time, and revealed an apologetic smile.

"Sigh…"

Makarov from this world looked at the old man before him who kept foolishly smiling at him and helplessly sighed.

So what could he say now?!

He really could not say a single word~

"Anyway, isn't it just the problem of the Fairy Tail Guild being demolished?"

"How big of a deal is that?!"

"Ultear, I'll leave the guild to you!"

Evan looked at the pale-faced little old man before him, who had already become speechless, and smiled lightly.

He had already had enough fun watching Makarov's misfortune and decided not to keep challenging Makarov's heart anymore. Thus, Evan waved toward Ultear beside him…

Actually, Evan had not intentionally been teasing Makarov either. Although he, Evan, was a member of the Fairy Tail Guild, he still had a conscience. He would not respect the old and love the young—no, that wasn't what he meant. He loved respecting the old and loving the young the most!

The reason Evan had deliberately provoked Makarov's nerves and heart just now was because he was afraid that Makarov was old and had a bad heart, and might suffer a heart attack in a fit of anger?! So, for Makarov's health, Evan of course had to use this opportunity to let Makarov exercise his heart more~ After all, this world's Fairy Tail did not have excellent members like Evan.

"Sigh…"

Thinking of this, Evan helplessly sighed. In the vast multiverse, among the countless Mage Guilds called Fairy Tail, there was only one Fairy Tail that was fortunate enough to receive Evan's care. Perhaps this was fate?! Evan could not help shaking his head when he thought of this.

Evan believed that the Spirit of the World of the Earth-land in his world really ought to give him, Evan, a little more benefit. After all, among the countless Earth-land worlds in this multiverse, so many that they could not even be counted, there was still only one Earth-land world that could possess a Mage as excellent as Evan…

At this, the Spirit of the Earth-land World in Evan's universe said, "6!"

Who the hell knew that she lived every day in a state of constant danger and at risk of being beaten to death, and whose fault that was?!

"Leave it to me~"

At the same time, after Ultear from Evan's world received Evan's instruction, a beautiful smile immediately appeared on her gorgeous face.

The next second, as Ultear gently rotated the Magic Crystal in her hand, an invisible power of time immediately covered the ruins that had once been the entire Fairy Tail Guild!

"What is this?!"

Makarov from this world was slightly stunned as he sensed the magic power released by Ultear. He could feel the vast space-time power within Ultear's body. Ultear from Evan's world possessed magic power far above his own, Makarov.

No, more accurately, every Mage of Fairy Tail from Evan's world possessed magic power above his… Ever since those one thousand Flame Dragons joined the Fairy Tail where Evan was, the average magic power of the enormous Fairy Tail had already surpassed that of Makarov from this world!

As Ultear activated her magic, the bricks, tiles, and wood chips that had originally been scattered all over the ground suddenly floated up from the ground. Then, as if a video were being played backward, they flew back to their original positions before merging together with the Fairy Tail Guild…

"This is the Lost Magic, Arc of Time!"

Makarov from this world stared at the scene before him and immediately exclaimed.

However, when Makarov noticed Precht from Evan's world standing beside him, he understood everything. After all, when Precht from this world invaded Tenrou Island, Makarov had already experienced the power of Arc of Time.

Since Precht from the world where Evan was had returned to Fairy Tail, the Mage who had controlled Arc of Time and opposed their Fairy Tail on Tenrou Island had naturally joined Fairy Tail as well…

At once, Makarov understood everything.

"Buzz!"

"Boom!!"

Because the Fairy Tail Guild from this world was nowhere near as competitive as Fairy Tail from Evan's world, the Fairy Tail Guild had only been destroyed once during the Phantom Lord War by Gajeel. Therefore, it was merely a small three- or four-story wooden building.

With Ultear from Evan's world's current level of control over Arc of Time, it only took a few seconds for the entire Fairy Tail Guild to return to its original position. Almost in the blink of an eye, the Fairy Tail that had just been a pile of ruins returned to the brand-new appearance it had when the guild was first built…

"Not only did I restore your Fairy Tail Guild, I also conveniently gave it a renovation~ No need to thank me~"

Ultear held the Magic Crystal in her right hand while placing her other hand against her slender waist, her proud curves making Ultear incredibly charming. Makarov from this world's eyes lit up when he saw her.

Of course, Makarov was not dazzled by Ultear's beautiful appearance. The main reason his eyes lit up when he looked at Ultear was because of her miraculous Arc of Time.

"If she could join our guild, how much money would that save us?"

Makarov muttered to himself.

"Hey! Guild Master Makarov, this Ultear is from our world~"

"She's going to return to our world with us when the time comes!"

Evan walked in front of Makarov from this world and spoke coldly.

"Er…"

"Don't worry, I won't poach your people…"

"After all, we're all Fairy Tail. We're all family, right?!"

After hearing Evan's words, Makarov from this world subconsciously swallowed before forcing a smile at Evan. To be honest, Makarov was genuinely tempted by Ultear.

However, Makarov from this world also knew that some things could be done and some things could not. Whoever belonged to which world should ultimately return to that world.

Otherwise, if Mages from Fairy Tail Guilds across the multiverse all ran around randomly through the timelines, sooner or later the multiverse would collapse…

However, knowing was one thing. Makarov still looked at Ultear with a reluctant expression.

"Of course, if it's Ultear from your world, then it doesn't matter."

Just as Makarov was looking at Ultear with some reluctance in his heart, Evan's voice once again sounded beside Makarov's ear.

"Hmm?!"

Makarov's eyes immediately lit up after hearing Evan's words. Evan's voice was like a demon's whisper, making Makarov's breathing quicken.

"That's right! Although I can't recruit Ultear from Evan's world!"

"Then why don't I recruit Ultear from our world into the Fairy Tail Guild?!"

Thinking this, Makarov looked toward Ultear from this world, who was standing beside Ur and constantly talking with her.

"Ultear, join the Fairy Tail Guild!"

Makarov took a single step and arrived in front of Ultear from this world, shouting loudly at her.

"Please allow me to refuse!"

Ultear from this world was startled by Makarov's sudden appearance and vigorously shook her head at Makarov.

"Why?!"

Makarov's heart shattered upon hearing this.

"There's no why!"

Ultear from this world refused Makarov very decisively.

"That's right! Ultear, why don't you join Fairy Tail?!"

At this time, Ur from Evan's world also looked at Ultear and asked.

"This…"

When Ultear heard her mother's question, she finally furrowed her brows slightly and began hesitating.

"Well, Ultear has already founded a neutral Mage Guild with me and Jellal, Crime Sorcière! We're not suitable for joining another Mage Guild…"

Just as Ultear did not know what to say, Ultear's goddaughter, Meredy, suddenly spoke, finding an excuse for Ultear.

"Yes, yes!"

"I've already joined another Mage Guild, so it wouldn't be appropriate for me to join Fairy Tail again…"

After hearing her goddaughter Meredy's words, Ultear from this world seemed to have grasped a lifeline and echoed her.

"You already have a guild?!"

Makarov revealed an unwilling expression after hearing Ultear's words. One must know that a person could only join one Mage Guild. This was the rule of the magic world of the Kingdom of Fiore.

Therefore, once Ultear had already joined a Mage Guild, before withdrawing from that Mage Guild, she could not join the Mage Guild Fairy Tail. But…

"But I remember that the Mage Guild Crime Sorcière, founded by the three of you, Ultear, Meredy, and Jellal, isn't recognized by this world's Magic Council, ERA, right? In that case, you're equivalent to not having joined a Mage Guild, right?!"

Just as Ultear slowly breathed a sigh of relief, Makarov continued smiling at Ultear.

Before the Grand Magic Games began, Makarov from this world had communicated with Jellal. Naturally, he knew what this so-called Crime Sorcière was. It was a Mage Guild not recognized by the Magic Council, ERA, and its nature was almost the same as that of a Dark Mage Guild. Joining it was basically equivalent to not joining at all. It was an organization that received absolutely no protection or recognition from the Magic Council, ERA.

"Er…"

Ultear fell silent after hearing Makarov's words, because what Makarov said seemed to be correct.

"Phew…"

Thus, after Ultear from this world was exposed by Makarov, she decided to lay everything out.

"I'm sorry, Ur…"

"At the same time, I also want to apologize to Senior Makarov, who invited me!"

"I, Ultear, am a sinner, a woman who committed unforgivable sins of immense gravity!"

"I am unworthy of joining any Light Mage Guild. In this life, I have no right to live beneath the sunlight!"

Ultear gathered her courage and apologized to her mother, who should have died, as well as Guild Master Makarov, who had invited her to join the Mage Guild.

"Ultear…"

"This isn't your fault!"

"You were forced into it too. The real mistakes were all committed by Precht. They have nothing to do with you!"

After hearing Ultear's account of herself, Meredy's eyes began to moisten. Deep down, she actually felt immense pity for her adoptive mother, because Meredy knew that Ultear had not intentionally committed those mistakes. Even many of the mistakes committed by her former companions from Grimoire Heart had not been voluntary either! They had all been forced into it…

There was actually only one truly bad person, and that was Precht!

Precht from Evan's world: "Huh? What does that have to do with me?!"

"Sin?!"

After hearing her daughter Ultear—or more accurately, her daughter from another world—Ur fell silent.

Because Evan existed in the world where she lived, after she lost Ultear, it was not many years before Evan helped her learn about Ultear.

And in the world where Evan was, Ultear had always been busy training beside Precht. Precht also had not yet committed any grave mistakes because he had no useful people around him. Thus, Ur did not know what kind of mistakes her daughter from this world had committed. Just how great did a mistake have to be before it could be called a sin?!

"Ultear, I imagine that the mistakes and sins you committed in this world are probably related to me from this world, right?!"

Just as Ultear from this world and everyone else fell silent, Precht from Evan's world suddenly walked in front of Ultear from this world and softly asked.

"Mm…"

Ultear from this world deeply looked at Precht from Evan's world before lightly nodding.

"Good. I roughly understand what mistakes you made!"

"If it weren't for a greater darkness blocking this old man's path, I probably understand what foolish things I would have done as well…"

Precht immediately understood something after seeing Ultear nod.

Actually, Precht had also wondered what he would have done if he had never encountered Evan, or if Evan had not awakened him in time?!

After thinking about it again and again, no matter which thing it was, they would all have been things that caused tremendous disasters to the continent of Ishgar and the human civilization of the entire continent…

Therefore, Precht could roughly guess how many absurd things Ultear had done under his instructions in the past.

"So you understand now, right? I'm someone who can never be forgiven…"

Ultear from this world revealed a bitter smile after seeing the complicated expression on Precht from Evan's world's face, because she knew that her actions had probably already been guessed by Precht from Evan's world.

After all, strictly speaking, Hades, the Guild Master who had forced Grimoire Heart to commit many absurd acts, and the old scholar-like, amiable Second Guild Master of Fairy Tail before her were the same person from different space-times! Although their personalities were somewhat different, they were roughly the same.

"No. Although I know that you probably did many absurd things under the coercion of me from this world, I believe that you can still be forgiven…"

Precht from Evan's world revealed a faint smile after hearing Ultear from this world's words. He looked at Ultear gently like an amiable elder and spoke.

"Hmm?!"

Ultear from this world was slightly stunned upon hearing this.

To be honest, Precht's words were beyond Ultear's expectations. At the same time, Ultear's heart struggled. She wondered, could even someone like her, who had committed countless crimes, receive salvation?!

"After all, even Fairy Tail from our world can be officially whitewashed! Why can't you be whitewashed too?! Compared with the sins committed by those Mages from the Fairy Tail Guild in our world, the sins you committed are simply a lesser wizard standing beside a great one…"

"Why don't you think carefully about what our guild's Zeref, Acnologia, Selene, and Ignia have done throughout these more than four hundred years? Someone has even invaded another world and declared that world belonged to them!"

Precht looked at Ultear from this world and spoke helplessly.

"Er…"

Ultear from this world fell silent after hearing this. Although she did not know Selene and Ignia, she had still heard of the great names of Zeref and Acnologia. Compared with these two ancestors of dark magic, the evil things Ultear had once done, such as manipulating Jellal in Zeref's name, did not amount to much…

"Actually, I've always wanted to ask…"

"Your Fairy Tail from that world causes so much trouble. Doesn't the Magic Council, ERA, manage you?"

Makarov from this world, who had been listening carefully to Precht and Ultear's conversation all along, really could not hold himself back anymore. He could not control himself and asked Precht.

One had to know that Fairy Tail from their world had always acted cautiously and did not dare to make too much of a spectacle of themselves, yet they were still warned by the Magic Council, ERA, every few days, after which Makarov would be dragged to the Council to read out a self-criticism. Makarov was an old man in his eighties, and having to go to the Magic Council to read self-criticisms to a bunch of youngsters for no reason was truly humiliating…

But from what Precht meant, Fairy Tail from Evan's world seemed to do whatever it wanted in that world, with every member acting like some kind of ancestor…

Therefore, Makarov from this world wanted to ask Precht for some advice.

"They manage us! Of course they do!"

"But the Magic Council, ERA, from our world managed too much and angered Fairy Tail!"

Precht slowly spoke after hearing Makarov from this world's question.

"And then?!"

Makarov from this world looked at Precht somewhat excitedly and asked.

"And then? Then there was no 'then' for the Magic Council from our world…"

Precht stood with his hands behind his back, a trace of reminiscence appearing on his face as he seemed to recall what had happened back then.

"So what exactly happened?"

Makarov became increasingly curious about what the Magic Council, ERA, from Evan's world had gone through that caused it to stop managing the Fairy Tail Guild that was wreaking havoc across the continent.

"Hehe, guess what?"

"Hey, the Mage Guild Fairy Tail from our world straight-up fucking expelled the Magic Council, ERA, from our continent! Evan and the others not only expelled all the councilors who were members of the Magic Council at the time, they even kicked out the Council Chairman!"

"In the end, Evan and the others even established a new Magic Council themselves, and replaced every single councilor in the Magic Council with members of our Fairy Tail Guild! Even that bastard Warrod ended up becoming the Council Chairman! Can he be the Council Chairman? Does he have what it takes to be the Council Chairman?"

"And from that day onward, every guild throughout the entire continent of Ishgar that dared to oppose the Mage Guild Fairy Tail all became Dark Mage Guilds. Those that needed to disband disbanded, and those that needed to be exterminated were exterminated. The world became much more peaceful…"

Precht glanced at Makarov and spoke indifferently.

For a moment, everyone fell silent. After Precht revealed what Fairy Tail from Evan's world had done, every member of Fairy Tail from this world was completely shocked!

To be honest, although Makarov was powerful enough to easily deal with the Magic Council from this world, even so, he had never thought of directly using force to solve everything!

In Makarov's view, this was somewhat too rebellious. But perhaps precisely because this method was so rebellious, it was effective.
