Fairy Tail: Collapsing Stars

It was precisely because Sonya could read Animusʼs heart that she naturally knew Evan was a Dragon King-level terrifying existence powerful enough to destroy the world. It was also precisely because of this that Sonya felt incomparable fear toward Evan.

”Sonya, how can you address His Majesty Evan by name? You must address Evan as Your Majesty!”

Animus spread his little wings and looked fiercely at Sonya, roaring.

”S-Sorry!”

”Please forgive me, Your Majesty. Sonya did not do it on purpose!”

Sonya looked at Animus, who had turned into a purple cat and was acting adorably fierce, and her body immediately trembled. She looked at Evan with eyes filled with fear.

”Hehe…”

”Sonya, you do not need to be so timid! I will not become angry because of how you address me…”

”You do not need to address me as Your Majesty. Just like everyone else, directly call me Evan.”

Evan smiled slightly as he looked at Sonyaʼs nervous appearance.

”But, but…”

Sonya looked at Evan as her body trembled slightly. Her eyes were nervous as she glanced at Animus.

”Hmm?”

Evan noticed Sonyaʼs peripheral gaze. He looked at Animus with a hint of displeasure in his eyes.

”Sonya! You do not need to be nervous. Whatever Lord Evan says, you just do it. Do not refute, do not think…”

After sensing Evanʼs gaze, Animus repeatedly looked at Sonya and spoke.

”As you command.”

Only after receiving Animusʼs approval did Sonya slowly let out a breath. Only then did she nod toward Evan.

”Mm, Sonya, in the future, go find Natsu and Wendy more often to communicate, and properly learn your Dragon Slayer Magic.”

”Of course, aside from Natsu and Wendy, you can also go find Laxus and Erza! However, those two may often be training or out on missions, so it may be hard for you to find them!”

”Besides the four Dragon Slayer Mages above, Irene and Selene are also possible. Actually, they are both very good people as well, as long as you are not afraid of them. In short, you must work hard to master your own power…”

Evan looked at Sonya and smiled slightly as he softly spoke.

Evan told Sonya to find Natsu and Wendy because Igneel and Grandeeney were inside Natsu and Wendyʼs bodies. Although Igneel as a dragon was rather rough, extremely irritable, and arrogant, and might not necessarily pay attention to Sonya, Grandeeney was indeed a gentle good dragon and also very warmhearted…

With Grandeeneyʼs help, Sonya would also be able to quickly cultivate Dragon Slayer Magic. As for Laxus and Erza, although their Dragon Slayer Magic was learned later in life, their talent was extraordinary, and combined with their strange ideas, perhaps they could also provide Sonya with some good inspiration. As for Irene and Selene, there was even less need to say more. If either of them casually guided Sonya a little, they could let Sonya avoid many years of detours.

When Evan was advising Sonya, he did not mention Gajeel at all, since Gajeel was not a Dragon Slayer Mage. He was merely Erzaʼs exclusive weapon…

As for Kurnugi, Kurnugi was even less acceptable. He still could not even properly use his own magic~

”O-Okay…”

Sonya repeatedly nodded. She had just heard Animusʼs order, telling her to obey Evanʼs words.

”Mm…”

In response, Evan said nothing and merely nodded. The gaze he used to look at Sonya was filled with pity. This little girl was truly extremely pitiful as well.

In Evanʼs thoughts, if Sonya could master the power inside her body and replace Animus in controlling the power of the Crystal Dragon, that would naturally be best. After all, having such a cute and kind girl was much better than Animus, this rough man, no, this rough male dragon…

”Letʼs go. Letʼs return to the guild together~”

As Evan spoke, he brought Sonya toward Fairy Tail Guild.

The matter of cultivating Sonya into a qualified Dragon Slayer Mage was still a long and difficult road!

As for Sonya fully mastering the dragon power Animus left inside her body, that was an even more distant matter…

”Mm!”

As Evanʼs voice fell, Sonya did not dare refute him. She tightly followed behind Evan and walked toward Fairy Tail Guild.

”...”

Only Animus, left behind where he stood, remained silent. He looked at Sonya with eyes filled entirely with confusion.

”Clearly, I came first…”

Animus could not understand. Clearly, he had come first, but why, why did Evan take such care of Sonya?!

Clearly, Sonya was only a low-level human, a human who had luckily been possessed by him…

But why could Sonya receive the Dragon Kingʼs favor?! There was no reason for this?
