Fairy Tail: Starting with Fairy Queen Erza

Page 86

"Damn it, why did I take my clothes off again?"

Before Erza could say anything, Gray, who seemed to have developed PTSD from Erza's actions, quickly put on the clothes that were scattered on the ground without any hesitation.

"Hahaha……"

"Grey, you got scolded, didn't you?"

"Since you're so good at taking off your clothes, why don't you quit Fairy Tail and join a circus or Blue Pegasus to become a stripper!"

"At least you'll earn much more than you would as a mage..."

Leon, who considered Gray his rival, certainly wouldn't miss the chance to mock Gray. He stood not far from Gray and loudly ridiculed him.

"Leon, before you judge others, take a look at yourself!"

"And you, Biggleslow, too. You're wearing swim trunks. Where are you planning to go swimming? There's no swimming pool in the guild..."

"You have five seconds to get dressed, or you'll face the consequences!"

Unfortunately, before Leon could finish speaking, Erza's cold voice rang out once again in the guild.

"Sorry, we'll get dressed right away."

Leon, who calls himself a performance artist, bowed upon hearing the sound...

Yes, the moment I heard Erza's voice, my body instinctively bowed.

Immediately, he put on the clothes that had been scattered on the ground.

As he dressed, Leon muttered, "Looks like I need to learn some dress-up magic."

"Ugh……"

Next, Erza's gaze swept over the group of Fairy Tail guild mages below her. Even if she didn't point out their shortcomings, she couldn't just stand by and watch them go down the path of perversion from which there was no turning back.

Well, after that simple childishness...

Erza resumed her Fairy Tail disciplinary committee member persona.

"It seems that my sister has a high status in the guild and is highly respected by everyone."

"Most importantly, Erza cares a lot about Fairy Tail. I can feel the deep affection she unintentionally reveals for Fairy Tail..."

Ereshkigal stood beside Erza, gazing at Erza's furrowed brows, and murmured to herself.

"What a bunch of troublemakers."

As Erza spoke, she looked up at Ereshkigal beside her.

"I'm sorry, Ereshkigal! I hope you didn't find this amusing."

"Although their behavior... is difficult to assess."

"But they were all good people..."

"So don't look at them with strange eyes."

Erza hesitated for a moment before explaining earnestly.

"Erza, you really like the Fairy Tail guild, don't you?"

Eresh looked at Erza and asked with a smile.

"Um……"

"I love this place the most."

After a moment's hesitation, Erza smiled and spoke earnestly from the bottom of her heart.

Suddenly, Ai Lei understood something; she seemed to have figured it out...

Why would my father and sister join this seemingly bizarre Magister Guild?

Is it because the guild members here, despite their different personalities, hobbies, and frequent arguments, share the same heart?

"Fairy Tail, incredible."

Ereshkigal looked at the Fairy Tail mark on her forearm again, and this time her emotions were completely different from before.

Next…

Time flies, and a week has passed in the blink of an eye.

In X778, Fairy Tail, the S-class mage exam, officially begins!

The dock in Magnolia town.

A sailboat bearing the Fairy Tail emblem rests quietly here...

Beneath the sailboat, Makarov, clad in the robes of the Ten Wizard Saints, stood with a solemn expression. Before him stood a group of S-rank mage candidates from Fairy Tail guild who had come upon hearing the news.

"So, we're not going to have to take a boat there, are we?"

When Natsu first participated in the S-class mage assessment, his pupils trembled slightly as he looked at the huge sailboat in front of him. A feeling of impending doom suddenly rose in his heart.

"Isn't that natural?"

Laxus glanced at Natsu and then spoke in a cold voice.

Fortunately, he had taken anti-nausea medication beforehand, and he would find a place on the ship to rest with his eyes closed later. He absolutely could not let anyone notice that he was also seasick.

In fact, because Erza once used transportation magic to instantly kill Laxus, Laxus's seasickness was not a secret to Mirajane, Ultear, and others.

“Those who call out the names of the Taoists shall board the ship immediately.”

"The first group, Lacussas and Fried."

"The second group, Mirajane and Elfman."

"The third group, Urutia and Leqi."

"Group four, Natsu and Happy."

"Group 5, Gray and Biguslow."

"Group Six, Leon and Warren."

"Group 7, Kana and Lisana."

"And the last group, Erza and..."

As Makarov read this, he looked at Ereshkigal, who stood beside Erza, with long blonde hair and a doll-like beautiful face, his expression filled with doubt.

"Young lady, are you also a mage from our Fairy Tail guild?"

Makarov raised an eyebrow. As the guild master of Fairy Tail, he usually appeared carefree and irresponsible. However, he could actually remember the faces, names, personalities, and hobbies of every single member of the guild.

However, this absolutely does not include the girl in front of him.

"Hello, Grandpa Makarov. I'm a new member who recently joined the Fairy Tail guild. My name is Ereshkigal, but you can call me by my childhood nickname, Ereshkigal..."

Ereshkigal also lifted her skirt, gave Makarov an elegant bow, and smiled politely as she introduced herself in a low voice.

"A new member who joined the guild?"

Upon hearing this, Makarov's expression showed some difficulty.

Is it really okay to send newly joined guild members to participate in this year's S-rank mage exam, which is said to be the most difficult in Fairy Tail guild history?!

"Grandpa Chairman, please don't worry~"

"Aileen is my sister."

While Makarov hesitated, Erza came to Ereshkigal's side and introduced herself as his sister to Makarov.

"Oh."

"So this cute little girl is Erza, your sister?"

"That solves the problem..."

After hearing Erza's explanation, Makarov immediately smiled...

If the girl before him was Erza's sister, and Ian's daughter, then there would be no problem! After all, based on Makarov's understanding of Ian's family, this girl was probably a monster...

and many more? !

Erza's sister? Ian's daughter?

Makarov, who hadn't reacted at first, had a hint of fear creep onto his aged face after these keywords flashed through his mind, and sweat kept pouring down his forehead.

In other words, the cute girl named Ereshkigal in front of us is the daughter of the red-haired beauty who stormed into the Fairy Tail beauty pageant two months ago during the Harvest Festival and possessed overwhelming combat power.

"Erza, please allow this old man to ask you a few more questions..."

Thinking of this, Makarov looked at Erza with a tense expression.

"You ask."

Erza, on the other hand, was extremely pleased.

Is Ereshkigal your biological sister?

Makarov stared intently at Erza and asked.

"Um……"

"To be precise, Ellie and I are half-sisters."

“My father and Ellie’s father are both Ian, but our mothers are different…”

“My mother is the de facto ruler of the Alvarez Empire on the western continent, the ‘Scarlet Goddess’ Irene Belserion…”

"And Ereshkigal's mother is the legendary 'Moon God Dragon' Selene, the master of the world of Elentia, from the northern continent of Giltina."

"In other words, Ereshkigal is a dragon."
