Looking down, Natsu, Happy and Lucy were talking loudly in the woods not far from Abar's mansion, in front of Abar's surveillance crystal ball hidden in the leaves.

Looking at the actions of Natsu and the others, Takagi Akira, who was hidden in mid-air, couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat from his forehead.

"For three years, every time I see guild members mindlessly rushing into a mission, I always unconsciously think of one thing: if these guys weren't strong enough and had the aura of the protagonist, they would have died countless times."

Just when Gao Muming was complaining helplessly, Natsu's voice came into Gao Muming's ears.

"Change the battle plan and choose T-strategy."

Next to Natsu, Lucy's somewhat embarrassed and angry voice also sounded.

"Very good, I will make that bastard who said I was an ugly girl suffer."

After venting her anger, Lucy remembered that she and the others had not agreed on any T operation, looked at Natsu beside her, and spoke in confusion.

"What is Operation T?"

The harpy at the side explained aloud.

"The T in T-Operation stands for T-for-Assault."

"What kind of combat is a direct assault? What are you thinking? That bastard Aybar is a duke after all."

Lucy instantly exploded when she heard Happy's answer.

"If we attack directly, not only will the guards be attracted, but we will also become criminals. I understand why Takagi Akira packed up and ran away without saying a word when he saw you."

"So what do you say, Lucy?"

"A stealthy invasion from above the mansion using the harpy's flying ability."

At this time in the mansion, Abar, who had already learned that Takagi Akira had left, was sitting in his room observing Lucy and the other two through a crystal ball.

"They are also members of the Fairy Tail Guild. Unlike the guys who have already left, these three are obviously planning to take something in my mansion just like the guys who sneaked into my mansion before."

"What on earth made so many wizards sneak into my house, and now even the guys from the Fairy Tail Guild are here?"

"The ones who have been coming here so far are just low-class people, so I guess I don't care much. Now it seems necessary to find out what those wizards are looking for, and why they keep sneaking into my mansion again and again."

With this in mind, Abar decided to give Naz and his crew a break and prepared to monitor them secretly and confirm their mission objectives through their actions.

Just after Natsu broke into Abar's mansion openly, Takagi Akira quietly followed the three of them and invaded the mansion together.

While Natsu and his friends and Abar's maids were making a noise and attracting everyone's attention, Takagi Akira quietly came to Abar's room.

After searching for a while, Gao Muming found the account book hidden by Abar in a hidden corner of the room.

After taking a quick look at the account book in his hand, Gao Muming couldn't help but be shocked by what Abar had done. Despite the shock, a smile appeared on Gao Muming's face.

"These things should be enough to give that bastard Aybar a hard time."

At this time, in Abar's study, Natsu and his group were confronting Abar.

At this time, Abar came out from the floor, stroking his beard with his hand, looking at the golden book in Lucy's hand with a smile of success.

"I see. All the wizards who broke into the mansion recently came for this boring and crappy book 'Sunrise'."

Lucy, who was holding a book in her arms, immediately asked in a somewhat sweet tone after hearing what Abar said.

"Since you all think it's a bad book, can you just give it to me?"

As soon as Lucy finished speaking, Abar's angry voice echoed throughout the library.

"No, what belongs to me will always belong to me."

Natsu, who was planning to burn the book, suddenly had flames rising from his hands.

"It doesn't matter whether you give it to me or not. We just need to burn the book. Lucy, give me the book."

Natsu said as he held out his hand to Lucy.

Faced with Natsu's hand reaching out to her, Lucy dodged without thinking.

"Can you not burn it? I will keep it secretly and treat it as if it was burned."

Faced with Lucy's rejection, Natsu's tone became much heavier.

"Lucy, it's my job to burn this book!"

Hearing Natsu say this, Lucy knew that Natsu was very determined to burn the book and she could only compromise.

"You can burn the book, but wait until I finish reading it here."

As she spoke, Lucy opened the book and began to read in front of everyone.

Abar, who was angered by the attitude of Naz and his companions, directly called out the brothers from the mercenary guild Southern Wolf.

"Another Fairy Tail wizard? Are they facing off against some imps this time?"

The mercenary on the opposite side breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Natsu's somewhat childish face.

Just when the two sides were on the verge of a fight, Lucy, who was flipping through the pages of a book quickly, suddenly screamed.

Everyone's attention was drawn to Lucy's "Huh?"

Facing everyone's gaze, Lucy looked at Natsu with a serious expression.

"I found some secrets in the book, Natsu, buy me some time."

After saying that, without waiting for Natsu to respond, Lucy ran away with the book in her arms.

After collecting the evidence, Takagi Akira left the room and just happened to see Lucy running down the stairs.

"I remember Wizardmon mentioned that the record of Abar's threat to imprison the author is recorded in Sunrise, which is also one of the favorable evidences proving Abar's guilt."

As Gao Muming thought this, he turned invisible and followed Lucy's footsteps.

When Lucy was using the magic prop Wind-Song Glasses to quickly read the entire book, Takagi Akira clearly felt that Abar was hiding behind the wall that Lucy was leaning against.

In just a moment, Takagi Akira understood Ebar's plan. He waited until Lucy really cracked the secret hidden in the book and then tortured Lucy for free.

"I didn't expect there was such a secret hidden."

Just after Lucy said this in disbelief, Aybar, knowing that Lucy had solved the secret, no longer hid. He broke through the wall behind Lucy and tried to control Lucy and torture her to get the secret she found in the book.

Just when Abar showed his head and was about to attack Lucy, the invisible Takagi Akira showed up and swung his fist just in time to hit Abar in the face, knocking him away.

Abar was knocked unconscious by Gao Muming's heavy punch. After tying up the unconscious Abar with a barrier, Gao Muming turned around and looked at Lucy who was standing there with her eyes wide open.

"Lucy, are you okay? Did I scare you?"

Lucy was a little overwhelmed by the sudden change, but she came to her senses after hearing Takagi Akira's voice.
