Fairy Tail: Encountering Auguste at the Beginning

After the death of the lord, the king of stars told Leila the details of what happened. Zudel had come into contact with a forbidden magic during his journey.

At that time, the boy should have used memory magic to tamper with some of Zudel's memory fragments.

This led to his mental breakdown and eventually blackened.

Zudel had problems with his memory after blackening, and for some reason, he used the forbidden magic.

This forbidden magic can merge with creatures other than humans to gain powerful power.

"Then, is there any way to separate the two of them?" Leila was anxious and couldn't help asking the King of Stars.

Leila really couldn't bear to see Zudel become like this, which was also a torture for Caplico.

"When he used this forbidden magic, it meant that he gave up his human identity and lost his body."

The Star Spirit King sighed helplessly, and then continued: "If the two are forcibly separated, his soul will eventually be expelled, and he will be reduced to ashes with only his soul left."

"If they are not separated, Caplico's soul will be trapped in the deepest part of this body."

"How could this happen!" Leila widened her eyes, her eyes full of disbelief and guilt.

She never dreamed that things would develop to such a bad point. If she hadn't given Zudir the key at that time, maybe all this could have been avoided.

"Where is he now?" Leila came back to her senses and asked hurriedly.

"Those two are the president and members of the dark guild Devil's Heart. Leila, you must not act rashly."

The Star Spirit King certainly knew Leila's thoughts. Although he told Leila, he still advised her kindly.

"Devil's Heart!"

Leila felt like she was falling into an ice cellar. With her strength, it was impossible for her to rescue Zudir.

And there is no perfect solution for Zudir's situation.

Moreover, she is now too busy to do anything else. The search for the key has already consumed a lot of the Heartfilia family's connections and financial resources.

Let alone fighting against the devil's heart, it is difficult to summon wizards just to issue a commission to rescue Zudir, after all, no one wants to provoke them.

If the devil's heart could be destroyed, the Council would probably have sent troops to attack them long ago.

It is precisely because there is no absolute certainty that once it fails, it will have to bear their revenge, so it was shelved, forming the current delicate situation.

Leila's mood seemed to fall into the bottomless abyss. She knew in her heart that she had no time to take care of this matter.

But in this way, there is one less key, and the matter of opening the door has also reached a deadlock.

"My dear friend, you are now in a dilemma. The last one to be in trouble is you. The twelve keys are not collected, and the door is difficult to open."

"I can use my own magic to supplement the magic of the other key."

After careful consideration, Leila still insisted on her own idea.

For the first time, the Star Spirit King showed an angry expression, his whole body bursting with momentum, and the cloak behind him kept shaking.

Realizing his own loss of composure, he forced himself to calm down.

"No, do you know how much magic power is needed? Your magic power is not enough. If you insist on doing it, the last thing you will consume... will be your life."

The Star Spirit King looked at Leila with a heavy heart.

"It's okay, don't worry!" Leila's expression was unusually firm.

The Star Spirit King stared at Leila and was silent for a long time.

"Star Spirit King, it's getting late, I have to go back quickly. By the way, can you help me bring a message to Aquia, just say I need her."

"Okay!" The Star Spirit King's voice was low.

"Then I'll go back. Goodbye, Star King."

Leila stood on the platform where she first came, as if the two had just met, smiling and saying goodbye to the Star King softly.

"Goodbye, dear friend!" The Star King trembled his lips slightly.

Three months later, Leila appeared in the room again. It was December of X776, and there were only 7 months left.

Leila first went to Jiude to report her safety, and then asked about the current time. When she learned that three months had passed, she nodded slightly and stopped talking.

Then she took out the things that Crooks had given her before and gave them to Jiude to let him find the key based on this information.

As for the missing key, she decided to hide it from Jiude first. Leila didn't want Jiude to worry about her.

Then she couldn't wait to walk to Lucy's room.

"Mom, you're finally back!"

Lucy in the room

While learning magic with Pero, Leila suddenly spotted her and ran over to the desk happily.

Pero, who was standing by, did not disturb them. He nodded to Leila and left the room.

"Lucy, have you been obedient during this period?" Leila hugged Lucy.

"Well, I learned a lot."

Lucy said as she pulled Leila to talk about her experiences during this period, counting on her fingers as she spoke, telling Leila bit by bit.

"Not only did I learn magic knowledge from Grandpa Pero, I also learned etiquette from Granny Spette, and from Mr. Lippen and Mr. Ed..."

Leila squatted down and watched Lucy talking freely. She looked full of energy, and the corners of her mouth rose inadvertently.

Lucy suddenly stopped talking and stopped moving her hands.

"Mom, why are you crying?" Lucy looked at Leila in confusion.

From Lucy's perspective, Leila was smiling, but tears were streaming from the corners of her eyes.

Leila was startled, she reached out and wiped her face, and wiped away the tears when she noticed them.

"Hmm? It's okay, Mom is so happy to see Lucy." Leila explained with a smile.

"Oh, then Mom doesn't need to cry, Mom can still accompany Lucy for a long time."

"Hmm!"

After visiting Lucy, Leila returned to her room and took out the magic crystal. She still had to explain the matter to Sun.

After waiting for a while, the magic crystal responded.

"Mr. Sun, I have received news about other keys."

"That's good, Miss Leila, nothing unexpected happened."

"Mr. Sun is right, something has indeed happened."

[It shouldn't be, there are still seven months left, even if it is far away in the Western Continent, it is completely possible to rush back, what else can happen? 】

"What's wrong?" Leila said hurriedly.

"Capricorn's key is no longer usable."

"What! How is it possible?"

[How could Capricorn have an accident? Even if something happened, it should have happened after the door was opened. How come it's already...]

Leila stood in the wind, as if struck by lightning. He could no longer understand the direction of the incident.

Then Leila explained the reason to him. Listening to Leila's words, Leila's face remained calm, but she couldn't help but complain in her heart.

"So, Mr. Sun, that time will not change, right?"

"Yeah, that's right!"

"I want to ask Mr. Sun, do you know the location of that door?"

"I know, but Miss Leila, what are you going to do?"

"I want to force the door open!"

"But if you lose a key, you will..." Leila stopped abruptly.

"I know, Mr. Sun, but I have made up my mind."

Leila kept thinking in her mind whether she should tell her that the Eclipse Gate is in the royal family.

If she loses a key, Leila will definitely use her life to replace it. What should she do now?

Is there any way to replenish the remaining magic power and let Leila survive?

Huge magic power, open the Eclipse Gate of the royal family, magic, royal family, etc., got it.

"Miss Leila, since you are so determined, I can't persuade you. That door is in the royal family, called the Eclipse Gate, and it is the door that the royal family has inherited for many years."

"Royal family? Thank you Mr. Sun for telling me, then I'll take my leave."

"Goodbye, Miss Leila."

Leila closed the magic crystal, then took out her plan book, began to record the steps on it, and made it specific to each step.
