Fairy Tail: Starting with Fairy Queen Erza

"I was wondering how this girl's talent could be so terrifying."

Upon hearing this, Makarov immediately felt relieved.

Makarov was initially worried that Erza's powerful backers would come after her joining Fairy Tail!

After all, a power capable of training a thirteen-year-old child into an S-class mage...

Just how powerful is the energy behind it?!

Makarov got a headache just thinking about it...

Although Fairy Tail already has too many problem children, one more or one less Erza wouldn't make a difference. But Makarov still needs to be mentally prepared to avoid any unforeseen complications or unnecessary trouble…

After all, it was his responsibility as the guild master of Fairy Tail to prevent his guildmates from getting hurt or involved in unnecessary trouble.

"Wait, Ian, you just said..."

"Whose daughter is Erza?"

Just as Makarov was beginning to relax...

Ian's words made Makarov's heart, which had just settled down, jump into his throat once again.

"Of course it's mine!"

Upon hearing this, Ian turned around, looked at Makarov, and spoke earnestly.

"Eh?!"

"Ian! When exactly did you get that girl pregnant?"

"No, no, no! Look how young Erza is, only a teenager..."

"So, even before you joined the Fairy Tail guild, you already..."

"I really misjudged you, Ian!"

"I originally thought you were some kind of morally upright person?!"

"I never expected that you would be just like me and Gildarts, a complete scumbag!"

Makarov pointed at Ian's nose and angrily reprimanded him.

"How rude of me..."

Do you think I'm like scum like you?

"Eileen and I are a legally married couple..."

Upon hearing this, Ian frowned immediately. He was fundamentally different from Makarov and Gildarts, those damned scumbags.

"you are married?"

Makarov looked shocked.

"What do you think?"

Ian looked at Makarov, shrugged, and looked helpless.

"Then Uru is probably out of luck."

While Makarov was stunned, he thought to himself.

"what are you thinking about?"

Ian looked at the stunned Makarov and asked in a cold voice.

He always felt that Makarov was thinking about some random, pointless thing again...

"Cough cough..."

"Why haven't I heard you mention this before?"

"Come to think of it, Erza's mother has never been to the guild before?"

"Did something happen between you two?"

Makarov pondered silently.

Makarov recalled the moment he found Ian...

Ian looked utterly destitute, like a homeless person.

Therefore, he concluded that Ian must have been dumped by the woman and left with nothing...

"You're asking me why I didn't say anything before?"

"Hehe, because I just found out myself."

Ian thought to himself, and then fell silent.

"Nothing happened between me and Eileen."

"Stop overthinking..."

"My relationship with Eileen is just as wonderful as it gets..."

Ian paused here.

"As for why she doesn't come to the guild?"

"If she really comes, you should panic..."

After finishing his sentence, Ian left Makarov with a rather intriguing remark before turning away from the basement.

Stepping out of the basement, Ian looked at the slightly glaring light outside and gently rubbed his aching temples. He watched Erza gradually becoming friends with her guildmates outside, and a slight smile appeared on his lips...

Yes, Ian meant it literally when he said "get along well".

At this moment, Erza is alone, chasing after Gray and the others and beating them up.

Erza's Fairy Tail assimilation rate has reached over 50%!

Speaking of which, it's about time we asked Erza about Irene.

Although, for Ian, it was only a few short years...

But for Eileen, it was a lonely wait of four hundred years.

What exactly happened during those four hundred years?!

Ian was still somewhat curious.

“Ian, Ian…”

Just as Ian was staring blankly at Erza's striking resemblance to Irene, a weak, feeble shout suddenly came from beneath his feet.

"Huh?! Where did this mummified corpse come from?"

Ian was startled and shocked when he suddenly looked down at the desiccated corpse at his feet, which looked as if a demon had forcibly drained its life force from it.

"It's me! Natsu..."

"Ian, food! Hurry up and give me food! I'm starving!"

The mummified corpse quickly explained after seeing Ian's fright.

If he didn't explain, he was afraid that Ian would unleash the Fairy Law on him in the next second.

After all, Ian had already made a gesture resembling 'magic'.

Although the fairy laws that Ian released will most likely not work on the Fairy Tail people.

As for that small probability...

It all depends on whether Ian can recognize the identity of the desiccated corpse in front of him at the crucial moment—that it is actually Natsu! And whether the Fairy Tail badge on Natsu's body can come in handy at the critical moment.

Incidentally, the fairy law that Ian used was during the year he stayed in the simulation timeline after his encounter with Deliora in Gray's simulation timeline...

It is a demon-specific version of the fairy law taught to him by Makarov, specifically improved to deal with demons.

Are you Natsu?

Didn't you eat lunch?

Ian finally recognized Natsu, and he pointed at Natsu, exclaiming in shock.

"When I woke up, all of you were gone!!"

Naz said this with a sense of grievance.

Chapter 26: A 24-Hour Endurance Race? The Prototype of the Strongest Squad!

"Click! Click! Click..."

Inside a restaurant near the Fairy Tail guild...

Natsu was like a ferocious beast that hadn't eaten for ten or fifteen days, its stomach growling with hunger...

He swept up all the food on the table and wolfed it down.

He stuffed himself with all sorts of edible things—fruits, meats, vegetables—astonishing the surrounding diners who stared wide-eyed.

Perhaps this is the secret and source of strength that allows Dragon Slayer Mages to always maintain abundant mental energy? They possess an appetite unlike that of ordinary people.

"Would you like some more food, sir?"

The restaurant staff member who had been standing guard by Natsu's table noticed that Natsu had almost completely devoured the food on his table. He first took out a handkerchief and gently wiped the sweat from his forehead before forcing a polite smile and approaching Natsu and Ian's table to inquire.

“Look at him…”

Ian waved to the staff, indicating that they should just ask Natsu.

"Ten more of that big plate of roast chicken, please!"

Natsu showed no politeness whatsoever, grinning as he looked at the staff.

"Ten?"

The staff member thought he had misheard and repeatedly confirmed with Natsu.

"Yes, ten."
