If there was anyone Cana worried about the most in the entire Magic Guild?!
Then it had to be Gray…
"Got it! Who do you think I am?!"
"How could I mess up at such a critical moment?!"
Gray replied to Cana with a serious expression, his hands in his pockets. Hmm, to prevent himself from taking off his clothes, Gray had already made up his mind. From now on, he would maintain this posture until Cana's mother, Cornelia, left the Magic Guild. He would absolutely not mess up at the critical moment.
"So, Gray, don't you feel a bit cool?!"
Cana looked at Gray with a sense of helplessness and asked.
"Hmm?!"
"Oh no, where are my pants?!"
After Cana's reminder, Gray looked down and saw that his pants had disappeared at some point. He was standing in the Magic Guild, wearing only a pair of black basketball shorts.
No wonder Gray felt a chill down there; it wasn't an illusion.
"Who's wearing two pairs of pants today! Quickly lend me one!"
Gray's expression was flustered as he asked the people in the Magic Guild for pants.
"Who would wear two pairs of pants out?!"
In response, the people in the Magic Guild all complained to Gray.
"I'm wearing two…"
At this moment, Lyon, who was ready for anything, raised his hand.
"There really is someone?!"
The Magicians in the Magic Guild complained once again.
"It's so hot!"
Not far from Gray and Lyon, Ur, who was wearing so much fabric for the first time, had already started untying the ties on her chest.
"Hold it in!"
In response, the sharp-eyed Fairy Tail Magicians immediately stopped the boundary-less Ur.
"Calm down, Gildarts…"
As for Gildarts, he moved his gaze, which had been firmly locked on Ur since she started taking off her clothes, and forced himself into a meditative state to calm down.
Now was not the time for benefits…
Well, Ur was already the well-known 'Welfare Princess' of the Fairy Tail Guild.
At the same time.
Cornelia had already arrived outside the Fairy Tail Guild's main door.
"Is this the Fairy Tail Guild?!"
Cornelia looked at the ancient building with the words Fairy Tail printed on it, her silver teeth lightly biting. She was about to see her long-missed husband…
"Pop~"
When Cornelia mustered up her courage and opened the door of the Fairy Tail Guild,
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Party poppers immediately exploded above Cornelia's head.
This made Cornelia's expression slightly cold. She looked up and saw hundreds of Fairy Tail Guild Magicians, dressed in suits that were out of place for their temperament, wearing ties, and looking incredibly formal, in the large hall of the Fairy Tail Guild. They spoke in unison to her: "Welcome Gildarts's wife, Cornelia Alperona, to the Magic Guild Fairy Tail!!"
"This is?!"
Cornelia looked at the scene before her, completely stunned.
"Cornelia, have you been well all these years?!"
"I haven't been well at all! Because I've missed you too much…"
Before Cornelia could think further, Gildarts had already stepped out from the crowd, knelt on one knee before her, holding a bouquet of beautiful roses. A thousand words came to his lips, turning into just two short sentences.
However, the flowers in Gildarts's hand were provided by Warrod, and the sweet words he spoke were provided by Medivh, that's all…
"Gildarts…"
Cornelia looked at everything Gildarts had done for her and could no longer control her emotions. Her nose tingled, and large teardrops flowed from her eyes.
"Cornelia…"
At this moment, Gildarts slowly stood up from the ground. He saw that the time was right and intended to give Cornelia a big hug. Hmm, based on Gildarts's understanding of Cornelia, she desperately needed his comfort right now.
"Gildarts!"
Cornelia, as Gildarts had expected, walked directly in front of him.
"Go to hell!"
However, when Cornelia really walked in front of Gildarts, the hug Gildarts had expected did not happen. What greeted him was a fist the size of a red bean bun.
"Boom!"
Gildarts was directly sent flying by Cornelia's punch, crashing into the bar of the Fairy Tail Guild.
Gildarts covered his swollen cheek, looking at Cornelia in disbelief: "Cornelia, why did you hit me?! No, that's not the point. The important thing is, Cornelia, when did you become so strong?! Have you also become a Magician?"
"Hmm…"
"I have three things to do at the Fairy Tail Guild!"
"First, join the Magic Guild Fairy Tail!"
"Second, join Fairy Tail and beat up you, scumbag."
"Third, still join the Magic Guild Fairy Tail!!"
Cornelia strode up to Gildarts, placed her foot on his chest, and angrily said: "I heard from Cana that you didn't recognize her as your daughter at first sight, right? And she had to tell you herself before you recognized her, am I wrong?! Tell me, how do you plan to die?!"
"Uh, this…"
Gildarts's expression stiffened. He had to admit that not recognizing Cana was indeed his problem. To be honest, the first time Gildarts saw Cana, he felt a connection with the little girl, otherwise he wouldn't have actively spoken to her. He just couldn't believe, no matter what, that a scumbag like him could still have a precious child.
"Cough cough…"
"Cornelia, listen to me…"
"Actually, Gildarts has been… all these years…"
Just as Gildarts didn't know how to refute, Makarov, as the Master, stood up. He came in front of Cornelia, coughed lightly twice, intending to mediate for Gildarts.
"Makarov, say less!"
"You didn't do less cleaning up for Gildarts back then. I remember your kindness to our family, but not recognizing your daughter is a matter of principle, there's no defending it."
Cornelia glanced at Makarov, then said coldly.
"I'm truly sorry."
Makarov's aura immediately weakened significantly upon hearing this, and he finally bowed weakly.
"Master Makarov was actually forced to apologize?!"
"Gildarts's woman is indeed also top-tier, huh?"
At this moment, the people in the Fairy Tail Guild were all shocked as they watched Makarov apologize to Cornelia.
"Hey! Don't you all feel uncomfortable wearing suits?!"
"Since I've decided to join Fairy Tail, I naturally learned in advance what kind of people you all are."
"Take off your clothes! Bring out the whiskey and cigars!"
After Cornelia finished scolding Makarov, she looked up and spoke loudly to the people in the Magic Guild.
"Eh?"
For a moment, all the Magicians present were stunned.
"Swish!"
Before anyone could think further, Cornelia was the first to change her clothes. She changed her dress into the incredibly hot Western cowboy style that Cana would wear in the future.
"Oh!!"
After Cornelia finished changing, the Fairy Tail Guild immediately erupted.
Confirmed by their eyes, they were indeed their own kind.
"Drink! Drink…"
"Damn it! If I had known, I wouldn't have changed clothes!"
"Come on, let's keep gambling!"
"Cornelia is truly a heroine."
As Cornelia's words fell, the entire Fairy Tail became lively once again. Gamblers gambled, drinkers drank, fighters fought, and mischief-makers made mischief.
"Gildarts…"
After Cornelia finished all of this, she looked down at Gildarts beneath her and said with a smile: "This time, you don't need to accommodate me! Let me accommodate you all~"
"Good."
Gildarts smiled, and as he smiled, he cried. It was truly good that Cornelia was alive.
This is a repair for yesterday! Still rushing the manuscript, can't write it all, absolutely can't write it all…
