Quicksand-like time continues to pass in the long river, and before you know it, a month has passed.

"It's finally here."

In a hurry, after a month of travel, she finally arrived at her destination, which made Lucy breathe a sigh of relief.

"Love, too far away." Harpy's expression was a little haggard, after all, he was too tired to travel for a month.

"Well, find a hotel first, and then go to the Divine Forbidden to inquire about Mingtian's news." Frowning slightly, Lucy stood in a somewhat depressed town and said in a roundabout way.

"Isn't it, isn't it forbidden here?" Crying and mourning, Harpy towered his ears and was weak.

"Nonsense, this is just a border town in the Eastern Continent, and it's still a week away from our destination." Sighing slightly, Lucy was also a little tired.

"Okay, anyway, let's find a hotel and get a good night's sleep." Harpy pouted, very depressed.

"Let's go." With that, Lucy bent over, grabbed Natsu, who was already blue and foaming at the mouth with one hand, and took the lead and walked towards the center of the town.

In the past month, Lucy and the others have been on trains and carriages, Lucy and Harpy are okay, at least they don't get motion sickness, but this is a pain for Natsu, basically, this month, Natsu has fainted with vomiting.

At night, the stars were shining, and in a hotel, Lucy sat by the window, her eyes slightly tired looking at the bright moon hanging in the sky, and her heart was full of endless thoughts.

"Lucy, are you thinking about Elusa again?" Harpy walked up to Lucy, stretching out his little head, full of cuteness.

"Yes."

"Don't worry, we'll see them when we find Mingtian."

"That's all there is to it." Lucy sighed, turned to look at Natsu, who was still a little pale, and said, "Natsu, it's okay. ”

"It's fine, but let's fly the rest of the way." Sitting weakly on the side, Natsu was slightly expectant.

"But it's so far."

"It's okay, I'm not in a hurry to find Mingtian."

"Okay then." Lucy thought for a moment, looked at Natsu's bloodshot eyes, and agreed.

"In that case, let's all rest, I'm tired from traveling these days." Lucy stepped aside and lay down on the bed.

"Love...... Good night. Harpy lay directly on the other bed with Natsu and fell into a deep sleep.

Maybe they are too tired, or they already have experience, in short, after all these years, they don't have any rustiness.

For Lucy, sleeping in the same room as Natsu not only does not have to be afraid, but will feel more at ease, perhaps, this is unconditional trust in companions, trust is already engraved in the bones.

――――――――――――

God Forbidden, a huge bazaar located in the center of the Eastern Continent, since the terrifying blood mist of the Eastern Continent dissipated twelve years ago, thus revealing a miracle medicine of a mutant strawberry, this has made many magicians venture here, and unknowingly, a town has been formed.

This is a place where the heavens don't care, except for the addresses of some powerful guilds, other places can be seen everywhere, so this place is not only full of blood, but also filled with endless darkness.

If you're just a weak adventurer, you'd better keep a low profile, because if you're not careful, you'll be killed by some unhappy guys.

Of course, if you are a woman, then you had better have a high enough strength or companionship, because here, women tend to die more miserably.

This town is known as the Forbidden Place, which means that this place was not only a forbidden place before, but also a place where the gods fell.

Because as soon as you step out of this bazaar, you will find that the boundless dark red earth is full of hideous and rotten skeletons, and these skeletons, some of which are the remains of gods.

"It's finally here... It's ......."

Slightly panting, three dusty figures stood on the street full of joy.

"It's scary here." Swallowing his saliva, Harpy hadn't recovered from the terrifying skeletons outside.

"It seems that this is forbidden by God." Lucy patted her chest, her expression was a little pale, to be honest, all the way, looking at those endless dry bones, Lucy's heart was a little depressed.

"Among those dry bones, there are dragons."

"Natsu, don't think about it, let's go inside. Go to the place of the Fiore Union first. Lucy looked at Natsu, who was a little stunned, and couldn't help but speak.

"Yes." Natsu nodded slightly, then reacted and said, "Fiore Alliance? What do you mean? ”

"It's the alliance between the Fiore royal family and the guild, and the other countries are the same, they all form an alliance with the domestic guild, otherwise, it is untenable for the main force not to be here."

"I see."

Moments later, the two of them, a cat, stood in front of the building with the Fiore logo.

"This time, I don't know which guild's king is here." Lucy looked at the tall buildings and muttered.

"Lucy, there's a king here?" Harpy looked confused.

"Nonsense, a country that doesn't have a king-level powerhouse can't stand here at all. Here, the kings of each guild take turns to watch here for a year, and then take turns. This year, it should be the king of the four hounds. Lucy rolled her eyes and explained for the two unknowledgeable fools.

"Let's go in first." Lucy pushed open the door and walked in first.

"Huh, Sister Lucy?" A voice of surprise and some excitement came.

"Shirya, why are you here?" Hearing the voice, Lucy looked at the figure in the hall and couldn't help but exclaim.

"I came with Big Brother Pacas." This is the Serpent Queen's Lin, who uses god-destroying magic and has a draw with Wendy in the Great Demon Road.

"Is it the Four Hounds' Pakas stationed here this time?"

"Yes." Shiria, who was already a big beauty, nodded, and then exclaimed, "Nazgo, Harpy, you're back." ”

"Yo, Shiria, long time no see." Natsu smiled, apparently not forgetting the little girl who had become good friends with Wendy.

"Ahem... cough ......" At this moment, a coughing sound broke the nostalgia of several people.

"Didn't Elusa come?" Some drunk, I saw a drunkard holding a wine jug and taking a sip from time to time.

Pakas, the top magician of the Four Hounds, when she was performing martial arts in the Great Demon Dao, even Elusa said that she was not sure to defeat her, which is enough to show that Pakas is powerful.

"Yo, drunkard." Nazyan greeted with a hand.

"Hehe, Fairy Tail." Pacas shook his head and smiled, casually admonishing, "Don't go out at night, don't go out if you can't go out during the day, okay, you can talk to them about the rest of Shiria, I'll go to sleep." ”

"This ......" Lucy and Harpy looked at each other, blank.
