Fairy Tail: Collapsing Stars

Makarovʼs expression suddenly changed as he watched Evan take out the long-distance communication lacrima. Although today was the handover ceremony for the Fairy Tail Guild Master, not all members of the Fairy Tail Guild were present. Some members had not come, such as Irene, and even more so Selene...

”Irene, and Senior Selene~”

”Please trouble yourselves to come to the guild. The Guild Master requires all members of the guild to participate in the activity later!”

Evan held the long-distance communication lacrima and spoke with a smile.

”Uh...”

As Evanʼs words fell, Makarovʼs face changed.

The mandatory participation for all members he had spoken of had not included Irene and Selene!

If Irene and Selene both came to participate in the competition, would that still be a competition? That would be the end of the world, right?

”Evan, this old man is begging you. Quickly withdraw your divine ability! Tell Irene and Selene not to come. This old manʼs guild cannot fit them!”

Makarov looked at Evan in panic. His lips trembled slightly as he spoke with fear and trepidation.

”Buzz...”

Unfortunately, Makarovʼs words were still one step too late...

The instant Makarovʼs words fell, a spatial gate suddenly opened inside the guild!

Immediately afterward, two beautiful figures appeared in the guild just like that. They were Irene and Selene.

And whether it was a coincidence or not, when Irene and Selene appeared inside the Fairy Tail Guild, each of them was holding a chain used to leash dogs.

The two ends of those chains were respectively tied to two mages who, in Makarovʼs eyes, were unfathomable...

”Come! Larcade~”

”Neinhart~”

”Greet everyone~”

The instant Selene and Irene appeared in the guild, the two goddess-level existences looked back and glared at each other, then pulled out their respective ”pets,” displaying the results of their training of their pets.

”Hello, everyone~”

”I am the loyal dog of Her Majesty Queen Irene, your Lord Neinhart~”

Neinhart stood respectfully beside Irene. His eyes were filled with reverence toward Irene and disdain toward the group of mages inside the Fairy Tail Guild, who, in his eyes, were ordinary and unremarkable.

”This dog is so arrogant?!”

After Natsu sized Neinhart up and down, the corner of his eye twitched, and his expression carried a bit of scrutiny.

”Idiot! This isnʼt a dog, heʼs a human!”

Gray looked at Natsu speechlessly.

Of course, he knew the difference between Natsu and normal people. Natsu judged whether the thing before him was a dog or not, not by the other partyʼs appearance, but by whether the other party was wearing a collar...

”Ah? This guy is human? Why would a human wear a collar?”

Natsuʼs expression was shocked. He had not had any intention of insulting Neinhart just now. He had truly treated Neinhart as a dog! After Grayʼs reminder, Natsu finally realized that he had misunderstood. Immediately, his gaze toward Neinhart carried a bit of apology...

”This is individuality. I advise you to mind your own business...”

After hearing Natsuʼs words, Neinhart was also angered quite badly. He had not expected that this weakling before him would dare to mock him. However, Lord Neinhart had good self-cultivation, so he controlled his emotions in time. He... was not angry!

”Individuality?!”

Natsu froze for a moment, but he did not ask more. Some words were best stopped at the right point.

After all, everyoneʼs hobbies were different, and he was someone who respected other peopleʼs hobbies.

Speaking of which, Quatro Cerberus also seemed to like wearing collars around their necks, though Quatro Cerberusʼs collars were more like decorations and were clearly different from the one around Neinhartʼs neck...

”...”

Compared with Neinhart, who was like a chatterbox, Larcade looked listlessly at everyone at this moment. His entire body seemed as though it had collapsed from exhaustion, as if he had been completely drained dry, his eyes hazy.

”Gone, gone. There really isnʼt even a little magic power left...”

Larcadeʼs lips were dry, his face pale, and his eyes sunken. He seemed to have stayed up all night for who knew how many days and nights.

Compared to Larcade, whose hair was withered, Selene was especially beautiful today. Her beautiful hair carried a faint luster, and her naturally seductive, fox-like cheeks released endless charm. It was just that today, Selene did not put on the appearance of a lustful dragon filled with unsatisfied desire. Today, her eyes were pure, as if her entire person had ascended, like an angel.
