Compared to the two fairies, Natsu is truly slaying a dragon!

Although they successfully dealt with the situation, the dark guild behind these people still attracted their attention.

[Iron Forest! A dark guild that roams outside the jurisdiction of the Magic Council.]

After this operation concluded, Natsu was plunged into his nightmare.

[Or rather, this is a nightmare for the entire guild.]

Erza, the strongest female mage in the guild, has returned.

[A torrent of angry words silenced the entire guild.]

What shocked Lucy even more was Natsu and Gray; during this time, she had come to understand the relationship between them.

[Yeah, they're mortal enemies, the kind you fight at least three times a day on average.]

[They're the kind of people who feel restless if they don't fight a few times a day.]

[And yet, these two people behaved like Happy Number Two or Three in front of Erza.]

These two usually sharp-tongued guys were so scared that all they could say was "love, love, love."

This is truly astonishing.

This time, Erza's return also triggered Lucy's second mission.

On her way back, Erza overheard that the people of the Iron Forest were plotting against certain beings. Out of a sense of justice, Erza immediately decided to defeat them.

So they teamed up with Natsu and Gray, while Lucy went there at Mirajane's request to stop Natsu and Gray from fighting while Erza was away.

Although Lucy didn't think she could persuade those two.

However, since it was her idol Mirajane who had asked her to do it, Lucy reluctantly went anyway.

It was during this incident that Lucy truly witnessed the formidable power of Erza, the strongest female mage in Fairy Tail.

Furthermore, Natsu and Gray's strength was fully demonstrated this time.

[With just three people, they truly managed to wipe out a dark guild, although the process was somewhat convoluted.]

[Even more so, at the very end, at the crucial point of this mission, an evil magic called Lalabai revealed its true form.]

[That was a terrifying demon, taller than mountains, yet even such a being, under the trio's attack, could only meet its end in the Northwest.]

Although, with the demise of Lalabai, an entire mountain peak was destroyed.

This made Lucy exclaim, "As expected... this is truly Fairy Tail!"

The series of adventures ends with the Fairy Tail members fleeing in a frenzy after destroying too much stuff.

The image with the white border also dimmed.

Conversely, the black-bordered screen gradually brightens.

In an instant, countless people were excited.

His gaze was fixed intently on the slowly appearing image framed by the black border.

Chapter 174 Celestial Spirit Mage, Lucy and Anna?

Hades: "Has it appeared? The image of Honaz."

Ultear: "Although White Natsu's scenes are quite interesting, overall, Black Natsu's experiences are probably more exciting."

Eileen: "It's mainly due to their strength, plus... their personalities are different in the two worlds."

Kagura: "You're right, the White Natsu in our world looks... not very smart."

Gray: "I totally agree! I'm always complaining about Natsu's intelligence, sigh..."

Uru: "Hey Gray, you should just shut up. You're not exactly smart either."

"After all, people who can play together are unlikely to have a large difference in intelligence."

Gray: "Huh?? Are you still my master??"

"Then why would you talk about your own apprentice like that?"

Uru: "I'm telling the truth, you two... well, but there's one thing worth praising: at least in terms of combat, you both have a high level of talent."

Gray: "Master!!!"

Uru: "But, as for living conditions, well, that's a long story..."

Gray: "...Master?"

The screen with the black border then lit up.

The massive ship slowly docked at the port of Harugion.

A tremendous roar resounded.

The ship's steps led down to the dock.

One by one, pedestrians carrying large and small bags of luggage disembarked.

[Among this crowd, two figures were mixed in.]

[Honatsu, with Happy!]

[What's noteworthy is that Henna's current mental state seems... quite normal.]

[He's as normal as any ordinary person, but... for a Dragon Slayer Mage, that's the biggest abnormality!]

Outside the sky.

Natsu's eyes widened in disbelief: "No way! Why didn't I get dizzy in that other world??"

Erza: "Come to think of it... that does seem to be the case. This Haku is a bit too normal, isn't he?"

Mirajane: "If I'm not mistaken, Henna and Happy came down from the cruise ship, right?"

Gajeel: "You didn't faint? How is that possible??"

Hades: "Could it be... that the research really succeeded?"

Brian830: "That research?"

Eileen: "Didn't you look at it carefully before? It's a study on motion sickness in Dragon Slayer Mages."

"Before Haku traveled through the timeline, he was already pondering this matter. Could it be the problem that has plagued Dragon Slayers for countless years..."

"He really solved it??"

Countless people gazed curiously at the sky, especially the various Dragon Slayer Mages.

For them, motion sickness, which seems like a trivial matter, has actually become their biggest problem.

That is arguably the most fatal weakness of all Dragon Slayer Mages.

No matter how strong a Dragon Slayer Mage is, even someone as powerful as Irene.

I still get dizzy on public transport.

They will still lose their fighting ability.

Imagine if Eileen got on a vehicle for some reason.

Even someone like Eileen, who stands at the pinnacle of humanity, would instantly become as fragile as a lamb.

Even someone at the level of the Twelve Shields wouldn't be needed; an S-rank mage could easily take Eileen's life.

This is not alarmist.

Such things have happened before in Eileen’s four-hundred-year history.

"Finally arrived, Harugeon Port." Happy exclaimed after taking a deep breath while flying through the air.

"It's been almost a year since we left, hasn't it? I miss everyone so much."

"Harpy reminisced as he flew."

"Really? I remember you seemed a little carried away when we were traveling in the Galactic Empire, didn't you?"

[Natsu, carrying his luggage, exposed Happy's true identity without hesitation.]

"Who can resist the fact that the Galactic Empire has so many luxurious meals, including all sorts of rare fish I've never tasted before? No cat could possibly resist that!"

[Harpy retorted.]

Hearing this, Black Natsu could only shake his head helplessly.

His gaze fell upon the bustling crowd ahead.

Yes, it's been a year since I've been back.

A year ago, on Makarov's advice, Henatsu accepted the last remaining ten-year quest in the guild and set off with Happy.

The ten-year mission, as the name suggests, is a mission that no one has been able to complete in the past ten years.

But, to be honest, it's a bit too easy for Black Natsu right now.

This mission was completed in just six months.

Most of the time was spent traveling and conducting research.

Otherwise, it could have been done even faster.
