"This door is not opened by hand......"

After climbing up, Jubia looked at the door under his feet and said, "It was opened by magic remotely." ”

Lucy frowned, "In other words, our whereabouts have been completely exposed?" ”

"There's such a big commotion, it's hard not to be discovered."

Lin Yu chuckled, "Moreover, I'm afraid that when we set foot on this island, our whereabouts will have been completely exposed." ”

"Then I don't understand, why did they open this door for us?" A look of confusion crossed Lucy's face.

"Whatever, just treat it as an invitation." Lin Yu waved his hand indifferently.

"The heart is so big!" Lucy was helpless, but she didn't worry, after all, with Lin Yu here, she felt very relieved.

"Such Lord Lin Yu is so handsome......"

Jubiya looked at Lin Yu with a blushing cheek.

"Found it, it's an intruder!"

Another group of people rushed through the corridor in the distance.

“……”

The three of them were speechless, these people are really persevering! It's not a long memory.

But this time, just as the three of them were about to make a move, there was a sudden commotion behind them, and then they saw a person being knocked out.

Brush......

A crimson figure with twin swords rushed out of the crowd, and the people behind her couldn't get up anymore.

After the shock, Lucy had a surprised expression on her face, and hurriedly waved her hand and shouted, "Elusa! ”

"Good...... So handsome. ”

Jubia looked at Elusa in surprise.

"Yo, little Elusa."

Lin Yu smiled and waved his hand, glancing at the void not far behind her.

"Why are you here?"

Elusa looked at them in amazement.

"Of course we're very worried about you......"

Lucy smiled and replied, "But it's nice to see you're okay." ”

And Jubia looked a little at a loss and said: "That, Jubia is the ......"

"Go back!"

Suddenly, Elusa raised her eyebrows and shouted at the three of them.

“？！”

Lucy and Jubia looked stunned, and Lin Yu also frowned.

Elusa also realized that her tone was a little heavy, and she turned her head and sighed, "This is not the place for you to come. ”

"I can't pretend I didn't hear that, what does it mean that we are not where we should be?"

Lin Yu looked at her, "You are our companion, but also my family, where you are, why can't we come?" ”

"That's right."

Lucy nodded affirmatively.

"Although it is so......"

Elusa raised her head and said firmly, "But only this time I won't allow you to interfere in the in, you should leave here now!" ”

"How could we leave!"

Lucy waved her hand and solemnly refused, "If Elusa doesn't go with us, we won't leave!" ”

Elusa was silent for a moment, then said softly, "This is my private matter, you don't need to get involved." ”

"We've been involved for a long time."

Lin Yu stepped forward gently, put his big hand on Elusa's head, and rubbed it gently: "The important family members are in trouble, you say, can we still sit idly by?" ”

Elusa shuddered and bit her lower lip.

"Those people say they were your former companions."

Lucy stepped forward and grabbed Elusa's hand and put it on her chest, and said sincerely, "But we are your current companions, no matter when, we will stand by your side!" ”

"You ......"

Elusa lowered her head, and her biting lower lip quietly loosened, revealing a chuckle, "I really can't do anything about you!" ”

"Really, when did you learn to be so dishonest. Wouldn't it be nice to say like they often say to Natsu and Gray, 'Stop talking nonsense, follow me'? ”

Lin Yu pressed Elusa's head into his arms, "So, whether it's crying or laughing, whether it's sadness or sadness, we'll all share it with you." ”

Elusa's delicate body trembled, and she slowly raised her head, with a tear in her eyes.

“？！”

“…… I'm sorry. ”

Elusa quickly wiped her eyes.

"Yes, we are companions, maybe I'm too selfish."

Elusa sorted out her complicated feelings and said, "In that case, I'll tell you everything." ”

Lucy suddenly listened attentively.

She was genuinely curious about Elusa's past, and her strange people who claimed to be her former companions and knocked her unconscious.

Jubia stood silently. After that scene just now, she became more and more eager to join Fairy Tail, and wanted to be a companion with these people, real companions.

And although Lin Yu has read the original work, he also made a gesture of listening carefully at this moment.

And, of course, there's the feather cloak that hides in the shadows and follows Elusa all the time.

"This tower is called the Tower of Paradise, also known as the R system."

Elusa softly recounted the past that made her sad and painful, and she couldn't look back. It was also because of this incident that she put a layer of armor on her heart.

"The origin of this tower is that more than ten years ago, the Magic Order that believed in black magic was built to bring the dead back to life."

"Raise the dead?!"

Lucy looked surprised.

"Because the construction of this tower is not considered illegal by the government and the Magical Council, they plundered manpower from all over the world and let the slaves who came in work to work."

Elusa lowered her head bitterly, "I was a child at the time, and I was one of them. ”

“！？”

Lucy and Jubia covered their mouths in shock.

"That's when I met Gerald, Simon, and Hugh...... At that time, Gerald had always taken good care of us, as if he were an older brother.

At one point, we were planning to escape from here, but the Magic Order saw through the plan. We were caught, and they asked who was the mastermind of the escape plan...... At that time, I was afraid in my heart, so I didn't stand up at the first time, but Gerrard did not hesitate...... But at that time, as if they had decided that it was me, they arrested me and put me in a torture cell......

I still can't help but shudder when I think about that painful memory in the torture cell...... Just when I was about to lose it, Gerald barged in, killed three members of the Magic Order, and rescued me, but also ...... But he was locked up.

I returned to the place where the slaves were staying, but Hugh's noise drew the guard's angry rebuke and blowing, and I was in a state of mental breakdown, and in that case I somehow got the courage to pick up the spear next to me and pierce the guard's chest.

But this move attracted more guards. At that time, after I killed the guard, my heart seemed to have been transformed and became firm. If you don't rise up and resist, you will have absolutely no way out.

I raised my weapon and rallied the slaves trapped on the island to fight back.

There were many of us, and we had the upper hand over their ordinary guards, but the last magical guards left us in a desperate situation, and I was on the verge of dying under a spell. Grandpa Rob, who took care of me in every way and was kind and kind, used his body to block that blow for me.

My mind went blank at the time, because the death of Grandpa Rob and the desperate situation of his companions had sparked a strong desire in my heart, so I got the magic.

Armed with magic, I was able to defeat the magical guards with ease.

And just as the companions showed the ecstasy of victory and excitedly prepared the ship. I arrived at the torture cell where Gerald was being held, but what awaited me was a changed temperament.

He was as lost as the people of the Magic Order, and even told me that he wanted to resurrect the 'god', the Dark Wizard named 'Jelf'. ”

Naturally, I was strongly opposed to it, and I was bent on leaving with those who had been so oppressed.

But Gerald wanted to leave me alone, and wanted me to be charged with betrayal, so that the people would resent me and brainwash them into continuing to build the Tower of Paradise for him.

He demanded that I keep it a secret for him, and threatened me that if I dared to tell the story of the Tower of Paradise, he would kill Simon and Hugh, and threatened me not to set foot in this place again.

Naturally, I refused, and even simply tried to persuade him to wake him up. But he attacked me.

I don't know when he actually learned magic, but unexpectedly, I was knocked unconscious by him...... When I opened my eyes again, I was already on the beach, far from that place.

I came out and left the place that seemed like a nightmare...... But I didn't feel any security inside.

After that, I dragged my embarrassed body to find Fairy Tail, because this is Grandpa Rob's guild, so I was curious...... I'm glad I stepped into that guild in the first place to get to know you...... President, Mira, Natsu, Gray, Lucy, Lin Yu, and Sister Feather ......"

Elusa took a long breath, "That's what I was through...... Only now did I finally know what Gerald had done to Hugh after he threw me out of the island...... He blew up all the ships and told the people that I was the one who did it because I was lost in magic.

So, I became a traitor in the eyes of Hugh! And Gerald provided them with a life of food and drink, and at the same time reversed their minds by brainwashing them every day, so that they were willing to build the Tower of Paradise for him without regrets, and it was because of this that the tower was built in only eight years!! ”
