[Ding! Mission triggered!]

[Mission name: "Roaring Train!"

Jude Heartfilia's plan benefits the country and the people. As the first guild in the Kingdom of Fiore, Fairy Tail should strongly support Jude and help him overcome various difficulties to complete the national railway construction.

Tip: Protect Jiude.

Task progress:

Helped Jude Heartfilia complete the construction of the national railway. (Unfinished)
Mission Reward: Random Gold Cloth. 】

As the mission was triggered, Moon couldn't help but widen his eyes. The reward for this mission was actually a "random golden armor"!
This is completely unexpected. Is this thing really that difficult? Or is it that the mission reward is not entirely determined by the difficulty?

But on second thought, the difficulty of this matter is probably high in another sense, and may not be easier than defeating a powerful enemy.

To fully build the national railway network of the Kingdom of Fiore, it would take a considerable amount of time, energy, manpower, and material resources. Even if there were no external obstacles, it would not be accomplished in a short time.

Moreover, this system prompt is very interesting.

"Protect Jiude, does that mean..."
Moon narrowed his eyes. Jude Heartfilia was indeed a key figure.

Before this, Moon had already learned that the Heartfilia family was not large. Apart from Jude, they only had an eleven-year-old daughter, and that girl was the only heir to the Heartfilia Group.

Jiude is a lovesick man. He is not very old, but since his wife died in X777, he has completely cut off all feelings for her and has no intention of remarrying.

Therefore, there would definitely not be more children in the Heartfilia family in this generation, and the eleven-year-old girl was under tremendous pressure.

This also means that if something happens to Jiude, the Heartfilia Group will definitely encounter setbacks, and the development of national railways will also encounter setbacks, or even die outright.

After all, when something has happened to someone, the subsequent helmsmen may not have the courage to continue.

'Unless, I help that girl up and use her as a puppet.'
Thinking of this, Moon couldn't help but shook his head.

Instead of thinking about things that haven't happened yet, it's better to think about how to protect Jiude, the key figure.

With Jiude taking the lead and doing the work, they don't have to worry about this matter. It is much easier than supporting a little girl puppet.

Looking at Jiude who was excitedly talking about the future development of the company, Moon still recognized his abilities.

Moreover, after losing his wife, this man devoted almost all his attention to work. It seemed that he was using crazy work to numb himself. It seemed that he rarely went home and almost lived in the company, completely turning into a workaholic.

"By the way, Mr. Jiude, what's your daughter's name?"

Thinking of this, Moon asked.

It is conceivable that the sole heir to the Heartfilia Group, that little girl who was only eleven years old, probably did not have a very good life.

This is not about material things, but about spiritual things. The wealth of the Heartfilia family makes it difficult for the little girl to live poorly materially.

But on the spiritual level, it would be strange for an eleven-year-old girl to be happy after losing both her mother and father.

"My daughter? Her name is Lucy. What's wrong?"

Caught off guard by Moen's sudden question, Jiude was completely bewildered. He couldn't understand why Moen would suddenly ask about his daughter. But then Jiude remembered that Lucy was a fan of Moen's, and he had always forgotten to mention it.

"Moen, could you please sign an autograph? My daughter is a fan of yours and has approached me several times about this matter."

After thinking about it, Jiude spoke immediately. This was also a good opportunity to get closer.

"Ah? Of course."

Mo En nodded and agreed, but his heart was not as calm as he appeared on the surface. Lucy, he had heard of this name before!
The last time I met my companions from the future, one of them was named Lucy, and she also had blonde hair!

Of course, whether it is the same person remains to be further confirmed.

Just because Jiude has blonde hair doesn't mean his daughter must also have blonde hair. After all, we have to meet her in person to confirm her identity.

But there is no rush, the important thing is to get the business done first.

Taking a copy of "Sherlock Holmes", Moon signed it, wrote a blessing, and gave it to Jiude.

"Thank you so much. Now I have something to explain when I get home."

Jiude took it with a smile and put it in his bag.

"Although this may be a bit presumptuous, Mr. Jiude, Miss Lucy is your only heir after all. Even for the future of the Heartfilia Group, you should pay more attention to the child and spend some time with her."

Moon thought about it and helped Lucy. Regardless of whether they were future companions or not, he would not lose anything by speaking up for her. He just hoped that the girl's childhood would be better.

"It's not that I don't want to accompany her, but I don't know if you can understand that I don't know how to get along with that child."

Moen's words made Jiude look a little embarrassed.

The main reason was that Moon was only thirteen or fourteen years old. It was natural for Jiude to feel embarrassed when he was given such earnest advice by a child like Moon.

But he didn't turn his face away or anything. Instead, he explained seriously that not knowing how to get along with his daughter was indeed one of the reasons why he chose to escape.

Of course, before his wife passed away, he was not very good at communicating with his daughter, but at that time his wife acted as a lubricant, so he did not notice the problem in this regard. Now, the problem in this regard suddenly became apparent.

"Not knowing how to communicate is no excuse for not seeing people all the time."

Moon shook his head. It was understandable that there was difficulty in communication between father and daughter, but you couldn't just disappear all the time, right?
“Sometimes, just being there is enough without saying anything.”

Moon said the last thing. He actually said a little too much and crossed the line. He just came and interfered in other people's family affairs. It felt like he was being too intimate. If Jiude had not continued to rely on him and "Fairy Tail", the other party might have already lost his temper.

Now Jiude just remained silent, without any other reaction, and no one knew what he was thinking.

"Ahem, when are we supposed to leave?"

Moen coughed twice, stopped talking about this matter, and turned to business, which made Jiude active again.

"Three days later!"

Jiude answered seriously, this was what he cared about most right now.
