Both time-traveled characters ended up as villainous henchmen.

Due to the cover-up by some branch members, it took seven or eight days for Phantom to fully understand what had happened.

Even after reporting it to the Magic Council and pinning the traces of dark magic on Henia, successfully obtaining a legitimate arrest warrant and kill order from the Magic Council,

It's also very difficult for the Ghosts to find Henia anymore.

Faced with this situation, Spectre could only rage helplessly. Even at the Guild Leaders' Meeting, their self-organized pursuit was repeatedly thwarted, and they were ridiculed by other Guild Leaders. All of this made Spectre Guild Leader Joseph Paula even more furious.

Especially when Fairy Tail guild master Makarov asked him if he needed help, Joseph's anger reached an unprecedented level.

"Henia, is it? Since we can't find you through official channels, don't blame me for being unreasonable..."

Joseph did not show much concern on the surface, but in his heart he had already regarded the matter of Henia as a major issue that had to be resolved.

"You were so smug because I didn't take it seriously before, but things will be different from now on."

Meanwhile, the Magic Council also issued a verdict on Henia's attack on the Phantom Lord's branch.

After receiving the report from the Ghost Guild, the Magic Council naturally did not completely believe the Ghost Guild's side of the story. They also personally dispatched an investigation team to Barclay Town to conduct a detailed investigation.

Therefore, we now have a general understanding of the whole picture of the incident.

To put it bluntly, the branch guild bullied them too much, and they were retaliated against.

Generally, these kinds of things can be handled internally by the Ghost Guild, and the Magic Council won't interfere excessively.

But another dangerous element emerged in Henia's case: black magic, which made the whole thing unusual.

The councilors believed that Henia most likely acquired the power of dark magic, which gave her the ability to retaliate against the Phantom Lord division.

Therefore, the council labeled Henia a dark mage and issued a warrant for her arrest.

However, all of this unfolded in the eyes of Zikrein, or rather Gerald Fernandez, and had a different meaning.

Holding the information about Henia collected by the council, Gerald looked at the blond youth in the photo and gradually recalled the image of a blond boy deep in his memory.

Years ago, in the prison van transporting kidnapped children, young Gerald also met a blond boy named Henia in the cult that believed in black magic.

The other person gave him a very special feeling. Although they were also very young, they would take the initiative to comfort the other children around them and even showed an unusual calmness.

This made Gerald very interested in Henia at the time.

However, before the two could become friends, Henia was picked from the prison van and bought.

"I never imagined that, just when I thought you had escaped purgatory first, you would end up in another kind of prison..."

Moreover, it too fell into darkness.

Gerald thought to himself, recalling his brief encounter with Henia, that he had become even more interested in her.

Ultear, who was standing nearby, noticed the slight change in Gerald's emotions, and asked with a smile:

"Should we contact Henia?"

"Sure, but be careful not to reveal too much, especially since we don't yet know what kind of dark magic the other party has acquired that can rapidly enhance their strength."

"learn."

After speaking, Ultear quickly left, leaving Geral alone in the room.

"Tower of Paradise, I will succeed..."

……

A remote town.

In a guest room at a town inn, Henia, disguised as a bald, muscular man, was perusing his newly acquired magic books.

A moment later, Henia put down the magic book, picked up the coffee on the table, and slowly took a sip.

Now, almost a month has passed since he destroyed the Phantom Division in Barclays.

For the first few days, since the ghost hadn't realized what was happening, his travels and spending didn't encounter any problems.

Later, after the Phantom Lords issued a kill order and the Magic Council issued a warrant for her arrest, Henia encountered some restrictions.

But these restrictions are not a problem for him at all. He can evade most of the tracking methods by simply changing his appearance and body shape.

After all, his magical abilities have improved dramatically since he spent some time cramming on his knowledge of magic in the Fairy Tail world.

He transformed all the diverse powers shared from the Black Mist Space into special magic that he mastered.

First, there's the lightning magic that earned him MVP in the operation to destroy the Phantom Lord's branch. Originally just an instinctive, powerful brick-throwing technique, it has now been given a layer of lightning-shaped magic after he systematically learned about magic.

Not only did the efficiency and power of his magic increase significantly, but he also gained a new understanding of lightning-based abilities.

Then, based on the success of his lightning-shaped magic, he followed suit and transformed other shared elemental abilities into shape magic of various attributes, such as water-shaped and fire-shaped.

The most unique feature is its special self-healing ability, which comes from the Demon Slayer world.

Fortunately, with the experience of developing other things, Henia successfully combined this self-healing ability with the powerful physique shared by the One Piece and Dragon Ball worlds, integrating it into a magic that enhances the body and heals itself.

At the same time, this magic also caused his magical power to rise again, reaching a completely new level.

As for the Dragon Slayer Magic represented by Yaguni, it has been temporarily shelved because Henia has not yet found accurate information about the magic crystal containing the power of Dragon Slayer Magic.

Official channels of communication have become difficult to access due to his current status as a wanted man, and may even attract the pursuit of the council.

So after a brief trial, Henia abandoned the overt channels and turned to the underground black market, relying on the methods of those dark guilds hidden in the shadows.

In fact, those dark guild mages found Henia before the council and the Phantom Guild.

Henia also took this opportunity to successfully establish contact with a dark guild.

Two days ago, the dark guild called Rotten Raven released a message about Dragon Slayer Magic Crystals.

However, the other party demanded that Henia personally come to discuss the deal.

"It seems the lesson we taught last time was too lenient, which has given these guys some unruly fantasies."

Henia chuckled. He'd been cooped up in the hotel for a few days and was itching to get some exercise.

After packing her luggage and checking out, Henia left the hotel.

As we left the town and stepped onto a dark, shady path, a sudden downpour began.

At the same time, the rain carried a murderous aura, heading straight for Henia.

A gloomy woman, holding an umbrella, wearing a dark blue dress, and with long, wavy blue hair, was slowly walking towards Henia.
