The magic merchant who mingled with Fairy Tail

On the calm sea, a ship slowly left Galakul Island.

In the small room, all kinds of flowers out of season are blooming in the sunshine. The salty sea breeze blows in through the half-open window, filling the whole room with the faint fragrance of flowers and plants. There is also a glass table and a set of sofa chairs. , a crystal lamp embellishment, just like a leisurely style.

Brandish slumped lazily on the sofa, eating the star mango that had been taken away and chewing on the spicy potato chips, making a crunching sound.

If you ignore the location, her appearance is just like that of a otaku from the Reiwa era.

"What are you going to do with those people?"

"Take it back first and leave it to the old man to deal with..."

Timaria sat across from Brandish carelessly, without any ladylike temperament. Her expression was calm and her tone was indifferent, as if she was talking about a trivial matter.

Hearing this, Brandish nodded silently, then stopped talking and continued to eat hard.

This ice cream will melt if you don’t eat it!

The battle ended half a day ago, and the entire process lasted only a few minutes. Apart from half a street and a few pavements, it did not cause much damage.

In the entire history of battles related to Fairy Tail, this was the one that caused the lowest damage.

With the combined force of form magic and time-stop magic, even those as powerful as Erza and Laxus were no match at all. They were beaten to pieces by each other after time-stopping.

Not to mention Gray, Wendy, and the Thunder Gods, who were still far behind them. Brandish could trample them under his feet without even having to take a move from Timaria.

So the situation can almost be said to be one-sided.

Although Laxus and Erza did sit-ups several times during this period, they were unable to do anything about the time-stop magic and were eventually defeated, and were captured together with Natsu and Lucy, who had been shrunk before.

At this moment, not a single person or cat was left in the two teams of 'Fairy Tail'. They were all tied up with handcuffs made of magic sealing stones and locked in cages on the ship.

When this ship was made, there was no means to solve the problem of Dragon Slayer's transportation sickness, so even if Laxus, Natsu and Wendy recovered their strength, they would still have to spend the next four or five days suffering from seasickness. Day boat ride.

"You seem to care about them?"

Timaria rolled her eyes slyly, glanced at the Star Spirit key bag placed on the table, and then asked with some doubts, "Especially that blond-haired woman, are you really talking to her mother?" know?"

Brandish didn't answer, and ate very hard, as if nothing could disturb her taste of the food.

Although the two have known each other for many years and have a good relationship, she does not want to tell others about her past with her mother.

After the air was silent for several seconds, Timaria also saw that the other party had no intention of answering, so she could only shake her head helplessly: "If you don't want to say it, forget it."

After that, she turned and walked out of the room to deal with other matters.

The so-called other matters are naturally not some messy and indescribable things to do with Erza, Elba Green, Lucy and Wendy who were captured, but a very serious and serious matter, which they also The reason for appearing here is to allow the Alvares Empire to station troops on Galakul Island!

This is the arrangement of Archon Inber.

Without Zeref's permission, they cannot easily start a war against Ishgar, but if they don't fight now, it doesn't mean they won't fight in the future. After conquering Ishgar, they still have to consider the procedures for communication between the two continents, as well as some messy things. .

In order to expand the territory of the Albarez Empire, to prevent spies from infiltrating the empire, and to better manage the people coming and going between the two continents in the future, it is necessary to occupy the island groups in the middle.

There are a large number of these offshore islands, with a large flow of people and complex humanities. Some of them are independent countries, and some are considered lawless zones. It will take a lot of time to integrate them into the Albares Empire and manage them uniformly.

So he sent politicians to various islands to negotiate, and sent Brandish, who only knew about eating and drinking all day long, with nothing to do, to accompany the army as a means of deterrence - of course, she did not have to deal with the negotiations.

(This is the reason why Precito mentioned that ‘the Albarez Empire has been ready to move in the past six months’)

Brandish is a lazy person and originally planned to reject Yinbel, but Yinbel invited Ogast out under the pretext of 'for the sake of His Majesty and the Empire', so she could only obey the old man's instructions. There are delicacies like 'Starlight Dessert' on each island, so I agreed to go there, and after hearing about it, Timaria volunteered to get involved.

Otherwise, if it was just to eat star mangoes, they would not have traveled so far and taken a warship and led an army.

It can only be said that Laxus and his team got there by chance.

…

In the prison, Fairy Tail and the others were dejected and depressed.

The three dragon slayer wizards couldn't bear the torture of seasickness. They were so sick that they staggered around, their mouths were bulging, and they wanted to vomit.

"It's so uncomfortable to be seasick..."

"Happy, take me to fly..."

Natsu and Wendy lay weakly on the ground, with their heads on their heads, breathless.

"Sorry, Natsu! I'm locked up and can't use wing magic!" Habi felt distressed and helpless, so he could only rub his paws on Natsu's face to show comfort.

Laxus was equally unbearable. His dragon-slaying magic was stronger and his dizziness was naturally more severe. However, he had a strong will and his arrogant character made him determined not to show such an ugly behavior as Natsu in front of his companions.

Don’t tell me, it’s quite effective!

He leaned against the darkest and edge corner of the cage, covering his embarrassed appearance with the large, pitch-black fluffy coat on his body, silently enduring the nausea and nausea coming from his body, like a lone wolf licking his wounds. He made a little noise, but he broke out in cold sweat and gradually wetted his coat.

The Thunder Gods sat in a row and stood in front of Laxus like they were guarding against thieves - as loyal followers of Laxus, they did not allow anyone to see Laxus's embarrassed appearance, even his fellow guild members. Same.

"That's enough, Gray! How many times have you peeked!"

Philide clenched his fists and burst into tears, "Laxus... Laxus... but the last thing he wants is for his companions to see how weak he is!!"

Gray: "..."

I just haven't seen it, I'm just curious and want to take a few more looks... There's really no harm in it...

"This is the first time I've seen Laxus in this state..."

Erza watched with great interest, but soon, she stopped her teasing eyes and turned to look at the other depressed person, "Are you okay, Lucy?"

"Well...I'm fine..." Lucy replied softly, "Don't worry!"

She forced out an ugly smile to comfort Erza, but everyone could see that she was forcing a smile, and everyone knew what she was worried about. The empty waist showed the problem.

"Believe me, we can get out!"

Lucy nodded silently. She didn't care about whether she could go out at all now, and even if she did, she wouldn't leave easily. Having the Star Spirit Key taken away was like a bolt from the blue to her.

‘What on earth does that woman... have to do with mother? ’

This question had been bothering Lucy for several hours, but she still had no answer.

Involuntarily, Lucy's image of Brandish appeared in Lucy's mind again. Recalling her cold eyes, inexplicable hostility, and vague words, her face became even more sad.

‘No, that’s not right! She is about the same age as me, but I have never met her, there is no way she knows her mother! If my guess is correct, she should be related to Akuiya. But the key to Akuiya was given to me by her mother herself, so her last contractor should be her mother...'

'hateful! If I could summon Akuya now, I would be able to figure things out...'

The more Lucy thought about it, the weirder she felt. Her irritated look was very much like Huang Mao, who was killed by his master.
