After everyone worked together to deal with all the problems, the belatedly arrived Magic Enforcement Force of the New Council "coincidentally" arrived at the scene and quickly controlled the few remaining Oracion Seis members.

It's said to be "a few", but in fact there are only two people left at this moment: Eric, the cobra who was defeated by Natsu, and Richard, who was corrupted by the Nirvana magic.

What's even more unexpected is that the brother Richard has been searching for for many years turns out to be Erza's companion Wally! The moment he learned that his brother was still alive, Richard could no longer suppress his excitement and joy and burst into tears on the spot.

However, for another suspect, Jellal, although they had received intelligence that he was also involved, due to the inability to arrest him on the spot, and the strong mental pressure exerted by Raphael, the matter ultimately ended in vain.

"Sister Erza~ Jellal, did he think of me? He saved me back then."

On the way back to the guild, Wendy, who was gradually recovering, held Erza's hand tightly and asked expectantly.

"Jellal said that he was either building the Tower of Heaven or studying magic, and he never met you."

Erza shook her head, looked down at Wendy who was becoming disappointed, and couldn't help hugging her.

This poor girl, her friends who had lived together for so long disappeared one after another in front of her. Erza couldn't bear to hurt this girl, but Jellal, who had recovered his memory, did not recognize this girl at all.

Speaking of Jellal, Erza's thoughts drifted to that moment.

Three hours ago…

"Jellal...you...really don't remember anything?" Looking at the people's backs gradually leaving, Erza slowly turned around, her eyes falling on the silent man who lowered his head. There was a hint of doubt in Jellal's eyes.

Jellal took a deep breath, raised his head and looked at Erza and said

"Actually... this was true before, but just now, when Raphael unlocked the self-discipline breaking magic for me, most of my memory has been restored!"

His words exploded in Erza's ears like thunder, shocking her.

However, Erza quickly came to her senses, shook her head slightly, a bitter smile appeared on her lips, and then stared into the distance and said.

"That's good. This way, you can remember the sins you have committed!"

Jellal shook his head silently, then turned his head, held Erza's hand tightly, and looked at her sincerely and firmly.

"No, Erza, I know very well that the place where I need to atone for my sins the most is the harm I caused to you!"

Erza was stunned for a moment, her body trembled slightly, she slowly turned her head and her eyes met Jellal's.

At that moment, she seemed to see the boy who stood in front of her and vowed to protect her when she was a child. Jellal's eyes at that time were also so firm and serious.

Erza felt the warmth and strength in Jellal's palm and smiled. She knew that the righteous Jellal of her childhood was back again.

"Then...what are you going to do next?"

Erza's inquiry made Jellal fall into silence. He knew his sins and evils and wanted to make amends, but he didn't know where to start.

Looking at the confused Jellal in front of her, Erza couldn't help but feel a pity in her heart.

After hesitating for a moment, she finally plucked up the courage and said softly: "Otherwise...will you join Fairy Tail?"

Although the sound was soft, it was like a stone thrown into a lake, causing ripples.

Jellal's body trembled when he heard these words, and he stared at Erza in astonishment.

He never thought that Erza would make such a suggestion.

This man who was once swallowed by darkness now saw a warm light in Erza's eyes - that was tolerance and acceptance of him.

Jellal's eyes gradually softened, and he couldn't help but reach out his hand and gently stroke Erza's beautiful long crimson hair. Then, he shook his head with a wry smile, his eyes full of emotion.

"I'm actually looking forward to joining Fairy Tail. I really want to see what kind of magic that place has, which can completely free you from the shadows of many years..." Jellal's words were full of longing for the future, It also revealed his deep concern for Erza.

When Erza heard this, a look of joy suddenly appeared on her face. However, just a moment later, her smile disappeared without a trace, replaced by endless loneliness and disappointment.

"But now I can't join such a great guild. I still have many unatoneable sins. The harm I caused to you, Simon and the others, and the harm I caused to the world..."

Jellal stared closely at the depressed Erza, his heart filled with endless love and care.

Unable to suppress the surging emotions in his heart, he took a step forward without hesitation and hugged Erza forcefully into his arms.

He felt her slightly trembling body, as if he could touch the pain and sadness deep in her heart.

In Erza's ear, Jellal whispered softly in a low and gentle voice:

"Erza, please believe me. When I completely atone for the sins I have committed, I will definitely come to you immediately. No matter how time passes, no matter how far away the distance is, I will walk towards you unswervingly. So please be patient with me, okay?”

His words were as warm and gentle as the spring breeze, gently soothing Erza's injured heart.

The moment Jellal hugged Erza, her body stiffened involuntarily, but she soon relaxed.

Listening to Jellal's sincere promise, Erza's originally tense nerves gradually relaxed and her body gradually became softer. At the same time, the hard and heavy armor on her body unconsciously turned into a light and elegant uniform.

Erza was silent, but slowly raised her arms, wrapping them tightly around Jellal's broad and solid back as well.

At this moment, no words were needed, the tacit understanding between them had been conveyed through the hug.

In this silent moment, their heartbeats seemed to merge into one...

……………………………………………………

"Hahaha! Wendy, your magic is great. I really don't get dizzy anymore! Just use this magic on me every day from now on!"

Natsu shouted excitedly, his voice echoing in the air as if it was about to break through the sky.

This sudden shout broke the peaceful atmosphere around her and jerked Erza, who was immersed in memories, back to the real world.

She raised her head and glanced at the group of friends who were playing noisily, and a faint smile couldn't help but appear at the corner of her mouth.

At this moment, Wendy was quietly nestled in Erza's warm embrace, with an innocent smile on her little face.

She blinked her bright big eyes, looked at the elated Natsu, and replied softly: "No, Natsu-san, if you use this magic too many times, the effect will gradually weaken!"

Hearing what Wendy said, the stone hanging in Erza's heart finally fell.

Seeing that Wendy seemed to have come out of the low mood just now and regained her former vitality and happiness, Raphael also smiled happily.

In fact, just now, he almost couldn't help but tell Wendy the truth of the matter.

However, considering that Mistgun had no intention of making this secret public, Raphael decided to respect his wishes.

Maybe after Wendy officially joins the guild in the future, she will gradually notice the clues? After all, as a regular Dragon Slayer, they are always extremely sensitive to the scent of people they meet.

Suddenly, Raphael seemed to recall something important. He quickly reached into his arms and fumbled around, then took out three keys that shone with dazzling golden light, and handed them to Lucy.

"Because that angel has been defeated by me, and what she has done has a strong dark color, the contract between the three Celestial Spirits and her has also been terminated.

They specifically asked me to find a Celestial Spirit mage with a sense of justice to take over these powers, and I think you are the most suitable candidate!"

Raphael explained with a smile.

Lucy's eyes widened, her face full of surprise and disbelief. Raphael smiled softly and placed the three keys firmly in Lucy's hand.

Looking at the back of Lucy happily running to Celestial Spirit to sign the contract, Raphael raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a smile like watching a good show.

I really look forward to seeing what kind of interesting expression Lucy will show when she finds out that Scorpio is actually the boyfriend of Aquarius?

……………………………………………………

"That's it! We kidnapped Wendy and Carla...ahem, and brought them to Fairy Tail!" Raphael introduced Wendy in front of everyone in Fairy Tail.

"Please take care of me!" Wendy smiled and bowed ninety degrees to everyone.

Carla, on the other hand, looked up at Tsundere.

The people around who were drinking were stunned for a while, and then they suddenly became excited.

"Oh oh oh! What a cute little sister!"

"Look! Isn't this the mother Happy?"

"These two are so cute! Welcome to join our guild!"

Looking at everyone with excited faces, Natsu showing off his experience to Gray, Elfman and others, Raphael running to Mirajane for a hug, and standing next to Makarov and watching with Makarov smiling. Her Erza.

Wendy's heart felt warm and her face was filled with a happy smile.

Grandpa Robin Lu, I really met the best friends and joined the best guild. You were right!
