Chapter 356 New Card, Obelisk the Colossus
After a period of much-anticipated chaos and noise, the crowd finally calmed down and sat together to discuss the current situation.
"So, sir, what exactly happened?"
Chess looked up at the Sirius Tree standing in the center of Sirius Island.
During the time he was unconscious, Makarov led Kirdas and the others on a brief reconnaissance of the island.
"It may be a little unbelievable, but this is indeed our guild's sacred ground, Sirius Island," Makarov said in a deep voice.
Every year he visits Sirius Island to pay respects at the grave of the first generation, and he knows the island's environment intimately, so he would never make a wrong judgment.
only-
"The abandoned examination rooms set up for the S-level assessment are strange; not only are they all concentrated in one place, but there is even one less passageway."
Gildarts chimed in, "And the location of the makeshift camp isn't quite right either."
"Although there are traces of damage from Acnologia, the extent is obviously much less than the ripped earth I remember—" Fried frowned, completely unable to understand what was going on.
"To complete self-repair in such a short time, truly worthy of Sirius Island, a real man!" Elfman shouted.
"Hey, how come you can bring up those three words for everything?" Abba Green rolled her eyes at him disdainfully.
"That's strange, Igniel clearly doesn't have that ability." Natsu scratched his head in confusion.
"It has absolutely nothing to do with Igniel." Lucy said, rubbing her forehead with one hand.
Even now, she remains highly skeptical about the idea that Natsu heard Igni's voice back then.
"Medalicana couldn't do it either."
"Hey! I'm talking to you guys!"
"Could it be due to the passage of time?" Eclair calmly offered her analysis.
As the oldest person present, her ideas were clearly much bolder.
That's a direction to consider, but is it really that simple?
From their conversation, Chase probably guessed something was amiss.
Just then, Mavis, who had disappeared, slowly walked out from the direction of the Sirius Tree: "No, this place is not Sirius Island."
"The first president? That's great, you're alright too!"
"Love, I was just worried you might be dead."
Lucy quipped, "Is it possible that the first president was already in a spirit form?"
"Wait, First Generation, you're saying this isn't Tenrou Island?" Makarov asked, his eyes full of confusion.
"To be more precise, it shouldn't be the Sirius Island I'm familiar with."
Mavis glanced back at the Sirius Tree and, with a hint of unease, voiced her inner thoughts, "There are still lingering magical fluctuations from the Fairy Orb in the air, but I haven't used that spell recently. What's even stranger is—"
"I found my own presence here."
"What do you mean by 'capturing one's own aura'?" Lucy's mind was a little confused.
"That's right, another version of me once existed here!" Mavis said with certainty.
"What?!?!" Everyone was shocked.
That's really how it unfolded—
After hearing Mavis's description, a look of certainty flashed deep in Chase's eyes.
The intact Sirius Tree, the centralized examination hall, the battle traces scattered across Sirius Island, the Fairy Sphere, and the two original members—although it sounds a bit unbelievable, all these factors combined point to only one truth: under the influence of time gaps and spatial rifts, this group of people accidentally traveled to Sirius Island after the original story was unsealed!
The fact that "local" Mavis is not on Tenrou Island suggests that it is around the time of the Grand Magic Games.
I just don't know which future I'm traveling to.
The original storyline promises a happy ending for everyone?
A hopeless future where 10,000 dragons destroy the world?
Or is it the future of Akenologia, corrupted by Rogue, that will destroy the world?
And more importantly, how to get back to the original world? "What's wrong, Chess? Did you find anything?" Makarov noticed the strange expression on Chess's face.
"If I'm not mistaken, I think we've probably arrived in another world that's similar to Edolas."
Chase used a description that his partners could understand quickly, which was a way of giving them a heads-up.
"Edras?"
"I see, that explains why similar places and two original ones exist."
"Come to think of it, when Exodia blasted at that black hand, I did see a white light similar to Anima."
"But isn't the environment here far too similar to ours?"
With Edolas's experience as a precedent, everyone quickly accepted and acknowledged the idea of traveling to another world, and they discussed it extensively there.
"Old man, why don't you go back to Magnolia first?" Gildarts suggested.
Staying on the island like this won't yield any useful information.
"That's what I think too," Makarov nodded.
Since there are no ships available for navigation around Sirius Island, and they are eager to find out what's going on.
After obtaining Makarov's consent, Chase used magic to pack everyone into cards, then summoned the city-guarding winged dragon to travel to Magnolia as quickly as possible.
This world is inherently rich in magic, so his card magic can be used normally without needing to take potions like Edolas.
During the journey, Chase did not rest. After pointing out the direction to the city's guardian pterosaur, he sank his consciousness into the card space and arrived at the dark castle where the black magician was located.
At this moment, the Dark Magician, the Dark Magician Girl, the Chaos Dark Magician, and the Silent Magician were all present.
Various magical books floated in the hall, their magic circles rotating and emitting a unique light.
"How's it going? Any leads?" Chase asked.
Upon learning that they might have traveled to the original world, he contacted the Dark Magician to launch an investigation.
"This is indeed not the original world," the omnipotent dark mage said in a deep voice.
In order to find the world of Elentia, where the Moon Dragon was hiding, and to transfer the extra magic power of that world to Edolas, Chess obtained the kingdom's complete transdimensional magic Anima technology from Mystogan while in Edolas.
During this period, Black Magic would occasionally conduct relevant research on it.
Although he was delayed by the Heart Magic and Hades' Magic Library, he was very familiar with the Fairy Tail parallel world, at least with Esland where Chess was located.
However, the spacetime coordinates here are clearly deviated.
The magical theories involved were far too complex, and the Dark Mage knew that Chase wouldn't listen to them.
So he stated his conclusion directly: "With the coordinates, we can go back, but transferring everyone in the guild would require a tremendous amount of magic power."
Chase and his companions were accidentally "sucked" here by the space-time rift created by the collision of Exodia's and Ankhserium's powers.
To go back, one naturally needs the corresponding energy source.
"Huh? So, that means my stupid master has to fight that god again?" the dark magic girl said, still a little scared.
Not only Mira and the others, but the card sprites were also quite frightened by Chase's earlier act of burning his life force.
"Fool, you wasted your time listening to that research." The Dark Mage gave her a cold look.
The dark magician girl shrank back and hid behind Chess at lightning speed, not daring to speak.
"That's true in theory, but if we build point-to-point anima devices, we can reduce the energy threshold to the minimum."
The Chaos Black Magician continued, "Preliminary calculations suggest that approximately 100 billion units of conceptual magic power will be required."
Upon hearing this, Chess breathed a sigh of relief.
The concept of 100 billion magic power is equivalent to a little over three magical spirit powers. Just by using the natural storage speed of one's own heart magic, it can be accumulated in about a hundred days.
As long as I can get back, this amount of time is perfectly acceptable!
After chatting with the four dark wizards for a while, he felt relieved and stepped out of the dark castle, looking up at a mysterious area in the sky that was right next to Osiris.
There, chaotic light swirled, and a rich, sacred aura continuously poured out from the cracks, filling the sky.
Seemingly sensing Chase's gaze, a majestic blue colossus slowly opened its crimson eyes from the depths of chaos.
That's right, the new card that appeared in the battle with Acnologia is none other than Obelisk the Tormentor (Black Footprint) – one of the three Egyptian God cards alongside the Sky Dragon!
(Because the time paradox involved is too complicated and doesn't make sense, I just wrote the future Lucy storyline as a parallel world. The future Lucy is really too pitiful.)
