The magic merchant who mingled with Fairy Tail

"Nani?! Who is Jellal?" Natsu had never heard of this name before, so he was confused. "It's a name that he has never heard of at all!"

Lucy complained: "If you don't know me, why are you pretending to be surprised?!"

“Because it’s more atmospheric this way.”

Happy said with a smile: "That's the kind of character Natsu is..."

Among all the listeners, there was only one exception, and that was Erza.

When she heard this name, her heart seemed to have been hit hard by a giant hammer. She was stunned, her eyes widened, and she looked at Mistergang in shock, which made Mistgang turn away shyly. Headed.

"Jer...Jeral..."

Gray, who was sensitive, was the first to notice something was wrong with Erza's expression, and asked aloud: "What's wrong Erza? Do you know that person named Jellal?"

"No...I don't know..."

Erza lowered her head, covering her aching right eye with her hand, gritting her teeth and enduring the pain in her heart alone.

It doesn't look like I don't know anyone here...

Gray sighed secretly and decided to ask Kira about it later.

Although the man in front of her was also named Jellal, and might even have the exact same appearance as the man in her memory, Erza knew that he was not the man she loved and hated. However, hearing this name after a long time, the terrible nightmare from childhood was awakened again.

Jellal... Jellal...

For many years, this name, that blue-haired boy, has always been her nightmare. It even frightened her to the point where she dared not take off the heavy armor. But now she suddenly mentioned it, and it was because of her companions, which made Erza fall into an inexplicable confusion. of panic.

"Erza..."

Jellal used to be the boy who gave him hope in hell and was also his companion, but Erza knew that an unexpected incident had changed his character, and she still dared not face this past until now.

And the Jellal in front of her, no... I should call him Mystergang. This man is taciturn in the guild. Although his presence is usually very low, Erza knows that they have a common will, and she can bravely look directly at him. He looked at him directly like the boy he once was.

"Erza..."

They are not the same person!

Although they have the same face and the same name, they have different experiences, different personalities, and different thoughts. They are two completely different people!

But Erza still didn't dare to look up. Her heart was beating fast and her body was shaking violently. She had never been so at a loss since she came to Fairy Tail.

"Erza! Are you okay?"

Natsu's shout brought Erza back to reality from the depths of her memory, and she realized that she was covered in sweat: "No...I'm fine..."

Even Natsu, who has always been very nervous, noticed Erza's gaffe, and others even more so. Although they didn't know what this name meant to Erza, it was obvious that she didn't want to mention it. In this case, they I won't ask any questions, I just stand by her side and give her silent support mentally.

To break the strange atmosphere, Dispert continued his story.

Seven years ago, after coming to Aslant, Disper did not act with Mistgun. He was not a person who cared about the "soul" incident, so he started his own traveling career.

During these years, he first traveled to all parts of the Kingdom of Fiore, then to other countries in Ishgar, and finally even went to continents such as Alakitasia and Kirtina. As for the purpose, besides sightseeing , just find a powerful swordsman to spar with.

During this period, he had just returned to Ishgar, and while passing through the Kingdom of Fiore, he came over to see his old friends, but he ran into the battle between Fairy Tail and Ghost.

This kind of experience really made Kira a little envious: "Hey~ You have also been to two other continents. That's great. I haven't been to such a distant place in so many years..."

"I'm talking about you, how can you become stronger if you stay in such a small place?" Disper said, "The outside world is very big. There are many powerful magic guilds, even more powerful than your Fairy Tail." Much stronger..."

The words stirred up a thousand waves, but the surrounding audience couldn't hear this, and they all retorted.

"Huh? What did you say?"

"We are Fairy Tail!"

"Even if you are Kira, you will still be beaten if you say such things!"

This reaction was not what Disper expected: 'Although these guys are not very strong, they have a strong sense of collective honor. ’

"What I said is true. If nothing else, their guild alone is much more luxurious than yours. Speaking of which, I have wanted to ask since I first came in. Are these iron bars on the head popular here? Decoration?”

"No! That was done by Ghost's people!"

"I get angry when I talk about this..."

"The ruler of ghosts? I seem to have heard that it is a powerful magic guild in Fiore. I heard that the president is the old guy just now?"

"Yes, his name is Joseph, and he is one of the Ten Great Magicians."

"Huh? The president is such a loser, how can the guild beat you like this?" Disper said, "I think there are still a few of you who are passable. Are their members that strong? "

"No! We won all the battles with ghosts!"

"That's right, the guild is like this because they attacked it at night!"

"Kira destroyed their base."

"Ahem, keep a low profile..." Kira pretended to be modest, "The Kira in front of me can cut off the enemy's stronghold with one sword."

Dispel spread out on the chair and said: "How can we do the missions when the guild is in such a bad state? I think you should just tear it down and rebuild it!"

This suggestion quickly gained support from guild members.

"Putting down the rebuilding seems to be the only way to do it!"

"Although I am a little reluctant to give up, there is nothing I can do about it. After all, the current guild may collapse one day."

The surroundings suddenly fell into a heavy atmosphere of regret and reluctance.

"Speaking of which, I remember the president mentioned this before. We have the design drawings of the new guild. It is larger than the current guild, and there is an open-air swimming pool..."

As soon as these words were spoken, the heavy atmosphere was swept away!

"Nani?? New guild?!!"

Several LSPs lined up in a row with their eyes turned into hearts: "Open-air swimming pool?!"

"Are you telling the truth? Mirasan?"

Marklov was carried to rest, and they had no choice but to ask other people.

"Yeah!" Mira smiled and nodded.

Kira also said: "I also know about this! The president had this plan two years ago. Let me tell you, the mayor only agreed to move the Magnolia Center because of my face. A good area like Main Street is set aside for us to build a new guild!"

"However, later on, because I was afraid that your fight would end up in the street, this plan was temporarily shelved..."

"Wow, Kira, you are so awesome!"

"Do I need to say this? You must always remember my contribution to the guild!"

"What, isn't it the right thing to do this for the guild?"

"What did you say?"

"If it's for my sake, the mayor might give us the whole street!"

"Natsu, this is impossible..."

"If it were Natsu, the mayor might just ask us to move out of Magnolia..."

"Hahaha...that's right!"

In the tavern full of laughter, no one noticed that after turning around, Kira showed a sinister smile: "Hey, hey, when the public funds for rebuilding the guild are collected, let's see if you can still laugh..."

Maybe it was because of the kindness of helping in times of crisis, maybe it was a companion from another guild, maybe it was a compatible personality, in short, after such a quarrel, Dispere naturally integrated into Fairy Tail.

Drinking, banquets, playing, and group fights, the entire Fairy Tail returned to its usual routine, as if the battle between the two guilds and the Ghost had not just ended, but happened last week, or even last month.

In such an atmosphere, even Mist Gang rarely stayed to drink some wine and chat with Kira. He seemed to let go of his knot and face his origins calmly, although he still remained concealed as always. With a straight face.

If anyone else was unhappy, it might just be Erza.

On the one hand, Jellal's incident brought back her memories; on the other hand, she was worried about the body of Marklov who was still resting; finally, this battle with the ghost could be said to have broken the "Magic Guild" "Cannot attack each other" covenant, Fairy Tail may be punished or even face dissolution...

Looking at her companions who were laughing, drinking and quarreling, Erza sighed deeply: "These guys are really worrying!"
