Fairy Tail: Collapsing Stars

However, Animus knew nothing of the actual details. The moment he heard that even Elexion had lost, his expression instantly turned cold. He no longer possessed his previous hot-blooded passion, and panic completely filled his face.

”Well, after thinking about it again, I suddenly feel that accompanying you in mass-producing Dragon Slayer Mages is more important. Surely the great revival of our dragon race is the most important thing. As for revenge and such, we can postpone that for now and let those Dragon Slayer Mages act arrogantly for a while longer! Cough cough…”

Animusʼs lips turned pale as he looked at Evan while trembling.

”Hehe…”

Evan naturally knew that Animus was simply too frightened to go.

However, Evan did not expose Animus and merely smiled lightly.

”Hehe…”

Animus naturally understood that Evan was preserving his dignity, so he accompanied Evan with continuous laughter.

Not long after Animus and Evan reached their dirty PY transaction…

As the sky gradually darkened, Erza and the others, who had returned from sightseeing, came back to the meeting point according to the agreed time with Evan…

As for the meeting point, it was naturally the royal palace that had already turned into ruins.

”Big Brother Evan! I plan to take these gemstones back and distribute them to everyone in the guild!”

Erza brought back a large bag of gemstones and planned to distribute them to Mirajane and the others.

”Erza, you did well.” 

Evan smiled slightly as he looked at Erza, who still remembered Mirajane and Kagura even while outside. He stretched out his hand and gently rubbed Erzaʼs little head, his eyes filled with affection. Perhaps Erza was the only remaining conscience of Fairy Tail Guild.

”Big Brother Evan, I only want this~”

”I think Charle will definitely like this~”

Wendy held two hairpins in her hands, one intended for herself and the other prepared for Charle.

”Mm! The things Wendy chose are also very nice~”

Evan lightly nodded as he looked at the hairpins Wendy selected.

”I donʼt really want anything. Everything here is shiny and glittering, completely boring.”

Laxus crossed his arms before his chest, his eyes filled with disdain. Real men never played with these sparkling things.

However, in reality, among the diamonds inside Erzaʼs bag, there was one personally selected by Laxus for one of his fan leaders, Evergreen. He simply felt too embarrassed to give it to her.

”Master, I chose this sparkling sword!”

Kurnugi held a sword embedded with countless diamonds as he walked before Evan. The corners of his mouth rose upward, and his eyes were filled with delight.

”This sword is indeed not bad…”

Evan lightly nodded while looking at the sword in Kurnugiʼs hand. Although it was not very practical, it was definitely qualified to serve as a souvenir.

The things chosen by the above people were still relatively reasonable. Next…

”Gajeel, are you sure you want to carry that thing away?”

Evan tightly frowned as he looked at Gajeel.

”Geh heh! I really do plan to carry this thing back!”

Gajeel carried a twenty-meter-tall metal pillar used to support the royal palace beams as he revealed an excited smile. With this pillar, he could probably eat his fill for several months.

”O-Okay then…”

Evan fell silent for a moment, but ultimately still agreed.

”Big Brother Evan, I plan to carry this thing back!”

Immediately afterward, Natsu carried a twenty-meter-tall magical beast while laughing loudly at Evan.

”Oh! That is a One-Horned Savage Whale magical beast from the nearby sea. They often harm the nearby fishermen. Normally, whenever I encounter those magical beasts, I immediately clean them up. However, because of Zashʼs matter recently, I never had time to go to the docks. Taking advantage of my absence, those guys swam back again…”

Animus frowned as he looked at the magical beast Natsu was carrying. In his eyes, that one-horned whale was a disgusting pest. This was because Animus regarded the entire Kingdom of Stella as his ranch. Whether the humans within it or anything else, all of it was his property. Naturally, he could not tolerate magical beasts destroying and occupying what belonged to him…

”Itʼs for Happy, right?”

Evan looked at Natsu and asked.

”Aye!”

Natsu imitated Happyʼs tone while lightly nodding at Evan, indicating that was exactly the case.

”Since itʼs for Happy, then take it away as well…”

The moment Evan heard that Natsu hunted the whale to gift it to Happy, he immediately said no more.

However, what came next was what gave Evan the biggest headache.
