Chapter 36: The Lively Theater Festival
Chapter 36: The Lively Theater Festival
"I will try my best."
Mystergan's expression was serious. Finding a way to bring people back to Edolas had become his main research topic.
Of course, the fight against "Anima" magic will not be abandoned so easily.
The reason Mystogan went back to the guild with Moen and Makarov this time was simply to familiarize himself with the area. Afterward, he would continue to fight against "Anima" in various parts of the world.
Mystogan will not be permanently stationed in Fairy Tail.
The group of four left the Cat's Lodge and soon arrived in Croba. They bought train tickets directly to Onibas.
The reason he didn't choose to go straight back to Magnolia was, of course, because Moen still had to turn in his quest; his quest assignment wasn't finished yet.
"Perfect timing! I heard the Sirsado Theatre Company is putting on a show, and other famous theatre companies are here too. We can catch a performance in Onibas before heading back; it's been a while since we've seen one."
On the train, Makarov spoke enthusiastically about the theater troupe's performance.
Onibas is known as the "City of Theatre," and the city boasts a famous grand theatre.
Famous theater troupes from the Kingdom of Fiore often come here to perform, and sometimes even troupes renowned throughout the entire continent of Ishgar come. Onibas is always very lively during these times, and it has even become a regular festival.
"Grandpa Makarov, was the play good?"
Wendy sat in the chair, her hands gripping the edge, her legs swinging gently in the air, and asked Makarov with a curious expression.
"Of course, it's not just theater; there are all sorts of performances, it's really interesting. Shall I take you to see it?"
Makarov said to Wendy with a kind expression that while Moen went to turn in his mission, he could take Wendy and Mistgang to see the theater performance.
"good!"
Wendy happily replied. Children's emotions come and go quickly. Wendy has already moved on from the sadness of parting, and now she is more looking forward to Fairy Tail.
Mr. Gang had little interest in theatrical performances; he was under a lot of pressure and had no time for leisure.
Makarov had reservations about this, feeling that too much pressure was actually detrimental to progress and that people must learn to balance work and rest.
"A string that is always stretched too tight will eventually break; there must be a balance between tension and relaxation."
Makarov tried to persuade Mystgang in this way, but the effect was not obvious, as Mystgang was also a stubborn mule.
Moen smiled and shook his head. Some things can't be forced. Mystergan won't relax until he takes off his burdens.
They now know that Mystorgan is of noble birth; he is a prince of the human kingdom of Edolas, and his father, the king, is the one who started all of this.
That's why Mistgang was under so much pressure. He felt he had to bear a share of his father's sins, and that he would carry a share of the sin for every person who was hurt because of "Anima".
His sense of responsibility is truly admirable, but he must also be living a very tiring life.
Moen understood that only by completely ending all of this could Mystergan return to normal, and they would do everything they could to help Mystergan!
Holding the newly acquired "Saint Cloth Repair Manual" in his hands, Moen carefully studied it, absorbing the knowledge about repairing Saint Cloths.
Actually, the above not only covers methods for repairing Saint Cloths, but also methods for strengthening Saint Cloths using items such as "Blood of God".
This "Saint Cloth Repair Manual" is extremely useful; it can be considered an instruction manual for Saint Cloths. It also clearly marks the functions of Saint Cloths in addition to their basic functions.
Once Moen has a high enough compatibility with a certain Saint Cloth, he can use the special skills of that constellation by wearing that Saint Cloth, even if Moen himself has not mastered them.
After he has mastered the skill of a certain constellation, and then puts on the Saint Cloth of that constellation, the skill will also be enhanced by the Saint Cloth.
In short, the Saint Cloth comes with its own skills, and these skills can also enhance each other, making the effect quite powerful.
This made Moen's heart burn with excitement; he felt that the Equuleus Bronze Cloth should be completed soon.
Perhaps because Equuleus and Pegasus are adjacent, he receives a subtle boost when using the Pegasus Meteor Fist, which also helps him establish a connection with Equuleus.
'make persistent efforts!'
With renewed determination, Moen continued watching with great interest.
The train traveled along the route, passing several stations before arriving at Onibas.
"We've finally arrived, Onibas. It's certainly bustling here."
As soon as they got off the bus, they could feel the lively atmosphere of Onibas at the station, where many people had come from other cities to see the performance.
Onibas Station was packed with tourists and very crowded, with guards on duty working hard to maintain order.
"It's much more crowded than when I came last time. Is it because it's close to the theater festival? It's really lively."
Seeing this, Moen couldn't help but gasp. The Kingdom of Fiore was no small kingdom, with a population of seventeen million.
Anything with even a little bit of buzz can attract a lot of tourists, and with the theater festival being so popular, it's no wonder that Onibas is so crowded.
Moen simply carried Wendy on his back to prevent her from getting lost in the crowd, and then squeezed out of the station with Makarov and Mistgang. It took quite a bit of effort, as they had plenty of strength and skills, but they couldn't use them in this situation.
You can't just send someone flying with a single "Pegasus Meteor Fist." If Moen were to do something like that, Makarov would have to knock him flying first.
"I'm definitely not coming again!"
Makarov shouted angrily as soon as he squeezed out of the crowd.
Moen looked at him and couldn't help but chuckle. There were several large footprints on Grandpa Makarov's body, especially on his back, probably from being kicked by someone in the crowd.
He carried Wendy on his back, forgetting about Grandpa Makarov, who was also short in stature.
Of course, Makarov would be too embarrassed to have someone carry him. If he cared, he could use magic to transform himself into a giant, but that would be too much of a fuss.
"Brother Moen, please put me down."
Wendy, who was lying on Moen's back, whispered something. Her little face was flushed and she looked excited. She was obviously influenced by the lively atmosphere in Onibas. It was indeed very lively here.
Moen crouched down to let Wendy off his back. The group would then split up; he needed to hand over his mission assignment first, and then head to the theater to meet up with the others.
With his bag bulging from being filled with "magic horns" on his back, Moen bid farewell to the three and headed toward the manor of the person who commissioned the mission.
In the corner, several gazes fell upon Moen, and magic surged.
