Inside the Fairy Tail guild.

The first president of the company, Mebius, was sitting on the counter, the small handful of pale golden hairs on her head hung down weakly, and she held her face with two small hands, and said weakly:

"Ah...... I really want to go on an adventure......"

I thought that I would be able to relax after the end of the war, but since the end of the war, I have been busy with the guild for almost three months, which makes her very weak at this time, and she looks like a frosted eggplant, losing her usual activity.

She sat there weakly, her two bare little feet hanging in the air, the crystalline jade soles of her feet could be grasped, delicate and small intertwined like five milky white grapes, but she didn't have the strength to swing at this time.

"You can't do it without the guild."

Yuri was sorting out the guild's commission board not far away, and when he heard Mebis's voice, he couldn't help but turn his head and look in the direction of Mebius, and smiled.

Mebis stared at Yuri with a blank look.

That's when it happened.

A young and elegant woman walked over, picked up a towel and gently wiped the sweat from Yuri's head, and handed Yuri a cup of tea - she was Yuri's wife, Rita, and her belly was already clearly outlined, and it looked like she would be able to give birth soon.

Mebis: "......"

No way!

She decided that she still wanted to go to Kaede as soon as possible!

Although it's cute to keep this like this, and everyone still likes her, but she's seventeen years old now, and she still looks like thirteen at the age of seventeen, which sounds weird! It's impossible to find a lover! No one really likes it, right?

“！”

Just as Mebis was thinking about how to get out, she suddenly noticed something, and the low-hanging tuft of dull hair on the top of her head suddenly stood on end, and became '! 'The shape.

She looked in the direction of the door, and saw that outside the door of the guild, a girl who looked to be about seventeen or eighteen years old was walking into the guild step by step.

The girl who walked in was dressed as a shrine maiden, barefoot like her, and in her perception, there was an inexplicable sense of affinity, or rather as if her power came from the other party.

"Phoenix Magic ......"

Mebis looked at the girl who walked in in a daze, her thoughts flickered quickly, and in an instant, she had already judged the identity of the girl who walked in, and said, "You are ...... The witch of the phoenix. ”

The atmosphere in the guild gradually solidified at this time, and Yuri, Presitto and the others stopped their movements and looked at Acryra who walked in.

After hearing Mebis's words, they all looked shocked.

The shrine maiden of the phoenix!

This is a name that resounded throughout Ishgar, the first of the Ten Sacred Wizards of Ishgar, a phoenix witch who has existed since three hundred years ago and has an immortal body!

"Phoenix's ...... Shrine maiden ......"

She ...... She's the legendary strongest sorcerer in Ishgar......"

"How can you be so young......"

Yuri, as well as many of the mages in the Fairy Tail Guild, almost all looked at Ekrea in shock.

The name of Aclea is a legend throughout Ishgar, but there are not many people who have really seen her appearance, in the impression of outsiders, Aclea who has survived for more than three hundred years should be the image of an old woman, but I didn't expect it to be a girl who doesn't look much older than Mebis!

The entire Fairy Tail guild became solemn.

The atmosphere seems to freeze.

And in this frozen atmosphere, Aclea walked in front of Mebis, looked at Mebius, showed a soft smile, and said, "I'm Acryria." ”

Mebis jumped off the counter and stared at Aclea for two seconds, then smiled at Aclea with a cute and innocent smile, saying:

"My name is Mebis, sister, you are so beautiful."

"You're cute too."

Aclea smiled gently.

Sister?

Yuri and the others all froze, this is a shrine maiden who has been said to have survived for three hundred years!

However, Mebis was a student of the legendary sorcerer three hundred years ago, and Acryra seemed to be a follower of that legend, so it seemed that there was no problem.

Mebis looked at Ekrea and said with some joy, "Sister, did you come here to find me for something?" ”

"Hmm."

Aclea nodded lightly and said, "I'm here to tell you something, the 'Curse of Contradictions' on your body is almost on the verge of attacking. ”

Mebis was stunned for a moment, almost the next moment he thought of something, his pupils contracted slightly, and a trace of sweat overflowed from the corners of his forehead, and said:

“…… Contradictory curse?! ”

"Yes."

Aclea nodded and said, "You should know that it is impossible for the Phoenix Magic to dispel the side effects of the physical level, so that you cannot recover your growth. ”

"So the side effect of your unfinished ultra magic before was not to stop growing, but to be cursed by Ankusalaam, the god of life and death."

Mebis staggered, took two steps back, leaned back against the counter, and said with a slight confusion in his eyes:

"I ...... I know that curse......"

The curse of contradictions!

The more you care about life, the more you love life, the more you will take the lives of others, and you will not grow old or die until you are tortured to the point of collapse!

And it's a curse of the gods, and I've never heard of any way to break it!

"So it's time for you to leave."

Aclea spoke at Mebis, "If you stay here, that curse will kill the people here." ”

Mebis paused, looked at Ekrea, and said in a trembling voice, "That...... Sister, can you break this curse? ”

"I can't."

Aclea shook her head and said, "Even the extreme of phoenix magic, the ability to be reborn from the fire, can't wash away this curse, but this curse is not unsolvable. ”

The first half of Echoray's sentence made Mebis pale, and the second half of the sentence made her stunned, and then re-revealed her hopeful gaze, "That is to say, ......"

"Hmm."

Echo didn't wait for her to ask, but nodded at her.

If Aclea can't crack it, then I'm afraid that the only person in this world who can break the curse of contradiction is Kaede, and Mebis is naturally asking about her teacher, and Acryra knows what she wants to ask.

Mebis breathed a sigh of relief.

Her panic vanished, and she resettled down, knowing that if Akrella said so, then Kaede Ye should be able to do it.

This made her purse her lips, a cute light red appearing on the sides of her cheeks, and her eyes lowered to the floor, remembering the time she lived with Kaede Ye four years ago and studied magic.

Finally.

I'm going to see my teacher again.

With a shallow smile, she looked up again, took a deep breath, calmed her gaze, and turned her head to look behind her, her gaze moving over Yuri and Presito.

Yuri noticed Mebis' gaze and quickly guessed what she was thinking, immediately shaking his head suggestively at her and pointing to Rita's stomach next to her.

The wife is about to give birth.

At this time, it was obviously impossible for him to have the energy to take charge of the guild.

Mebis also noticed Yuri's hint, glanced at Rita's belly, then nodded slightly, turned to look at Presitto, smiled, and said:

"Presito, I'll have to solve my problems, and the guild will have to rely on you while I'm away."

Preshito was stunned for a moment and said, "What do you mean, President......"

Mebis nodded at him and said with a smile, "From now on, you will be the second president of Fairy Tail!" ”

"This ......"

Preshito opened his mouth and looked in Yuri's direction, subconsciously wanting to say that Yuri should be allowed to succeed him, but he also noticed Rita's stomach next to Yuri, so he swallowed the words that came to his mouth again.

He touched the back of his head, looked at Mebis with some hesitation, and said:

"But can I?"

"You'll be fine, you're the most magically gifted person!"

Mebis smiled at Presito.

That's it.

Witnessed by many members of Fairy Tail, Fairy Tail, a four-year-old Magus Guild, ushered in its second president, Presitto Gellberg!

On that day, the first president, Mebius, left the Fairy Tail Guild with the witch of the phoenix, Ekreya, and disappeared from people's sight.

……

Sky.

Mebis lay on Aclera's back and put two small arms around Aclera's neck, while Acryra spread her arms and turned into phoenix wings entwined with golden flames, leading Mebis all the way from the clouds to leap.

She led Mebis over wide rivers, over long mountains, and finally to a solemn palace on the east side of the city, isolated there.

That's where the Phoenix Heart Guild is located.

"This is my sister's guild......"

Mebis could already faintly see the palace in the distance at this time, and her eyes had a little surprise opening, she had not been able to come here during the war because of its geographical location.

Acléa retracted her wings and flew downward, carrying Mebis all the way to the front of the palace, and the golden flames on her body eventually disappeared.

When landing,

Mebis let go of her little hand and jumped off Ekrea's back.

And just as the two of them were looking in the direction of the palace together, about to walk up together, suddenly, Mebis and Ekrea both noticed something at the same time and turned their heads together.

I saw that in the woods on the right side of the palace, a young man wearing a magic robe was walking out of the forest step by step, and it seemed that he happened to pass by.

"...... Ekrea"

The boy noticed Acryra and Mebis in front of the palace, and was slightly startled.

Ekrea looked at the young man who had stopped, and her eyes paused, and she pronounced the other party's name: "...... Jelf. ”

Hearing Ekreya's address to the boy, Mebis's pupils shrank slightly.

Dark Wizard Jelf!

Like Kaede, he is also a legendary magician hundreds of years ago, but unlike Kaede Night, almost all of the things related to Jelv are all kinds of darkness and notoriety!

Some people call him the one who brought darkness, some call him the demon itself, and some say that he walked the world and took countless lives, and he was the most evil and terrifying magician!

"Sister, do you know him?"

Mebis felt a little depressed.

Echo nodded and said, "I met him a hundred years ago, but he is not the evil magician as rumored, he is the same person who has fallen under the curse of contradictions. ”

When she met Jelf, she didn't know that Jelf was a contradictory curse, and Jelf didn't tell her.

It wasn't until recently that Kaede Ye had talked to her about the contradictory curse in Mebis that she had mentioned the situation about Jelf, and at the same time talked a little more about Jelf.

When Gerf heard Aclea's words, he was slightly stunned, and then looked at Mebis beside Aclea with a look of surprise, recognized it, and said:

"Are you, the goblin military master?"

Because of the curse of contradictions, he usually doesn't meet people, but he still occasionally reads newspapers, so he knows a lot about what is happening on the continent.

"It's me."

Mebis nodded slightly.

Gerf examined Mebis for a few seconds, then finally sighed and said:

"It's a pity."

With that, he walked off into the distance, eventually disappearing into the trees.

Mebis moved her gaze back and forth between Jelf's back and Echo a few times, and finally looked at Echo and couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Sister, is he ...... What's going on? ”

Akrea looked in the direction in which Jelf had disappeared and said, "He has been tormented in pain for violating Ankusalam's will in order to resurrect his brother, and he has been cursed by contradictions. ”

"I heard from Lord Kaede that Lord Kaede Ye once met Jerph, and Jerk asked Lord Kaede to kill him, but Lord Kaede Ye refused."

Echorae's words made Mebis couldn't help but reach out and cover her mouth, showing a look of shock, and said, "Please, teacher...... Kill himself? ”

"Hmm."

Acryra nodded and said, "The Curse of Contradiction is such a terrible thing. ”

Mebis looked again in the direction where Jelf had disappeared and couldn't help muttering, "No wonder he said to me that it's a pity, but isn't the teacher able to break this curse?" ”

Acryra shook her head and said, "Maybe he doesn't know, maybe it's Kaede-sama who refuses to crack it for him, maybe ...... What is the reason we can't think of. ”
