When Kenichi regained his senses, he found himself on a barren piece of land.
Looking around, there was nothing but bare ground.
At this point, Erza, who was being held in Kenichi's hand, also opened her eyes.
When she saw the surroundings, her pretty face changed immediately.
"What's going on?"
"Where is this place?"
"Where's the guild?"
Just as Kenichi was thinking about how to explain all this to Erza, a figure walked up to him.
Kenichi looked up and saw a man dressed in black clothes and a black cloak, wearing a mask, with a large fan strapped to his back.
The moment Kenichi saw this man, his mind stirred.
And Mirajane and Erza, both held in Kenichi's hands, said in unison: "Mystogan!"
That's right. The man standing before Kenichi was none other than Mystogan, one of Fairy Tail's S-Class mages.
Besides that, Kenichi also knew his other identity: Jellal, the Prince of Edolas.
"Kenichi, how long are you planning to hold us in your hand?"
While Kenichi was staring at Mystogan, Erza in his hand complained.
Hearing Erza, Kenichi then used Command T to restore Erza and Mirajane to their original sizes.
"I'm sorry. I couldn't stop Anima. The entire Magnolia Town has been sucked into Edolas."
After Erza and Mirajane were both restored, Mystogan's eyes flickered, and he spoke apologetically.
As soon as Mystogan said this, the expressions of both Mirajane and Erza changed.
"What do you mean, Magnolia Town was sucked into Edolas?"
"Mystogan, do you know something?"
Erza stared at Mystogan and asked.
Mystogan adjusted the mask on his face, then turned slightly sideways and explained to Erza and the others: "The world we live in is called Earthland. There is another world very similar to Earthland, called Edolas."
"The magical power in the Edolas world has dried up. To obtain magical power, the people of Edolas created a super-dimensional space called Anima to absorb magical power from other worlds."
Then Mystogan explained to Kenichi, Erza, and Mirajane their current situation and what had just happened.
"So you're saying, in that instant just now, the entire Magnolia Town was absorbed into Edolas?"
Erza furrowed her brows deeply and asked Mystogan in a deep voice.
"That's correct!"
After getting confirmation from Mystogan, Erza became furious: "Don't be ridiculous! To disregard others' lives just for magical power? That's an entire town of people!"
"Calm down, Erza!"
Mirajane tried to soothe Erza, then asked Mystogan: "Mystogan, what is the current condition of the residents of Magnolia Town and everyone from the guild?"
"They are still alive and are currently in Edolas. I still have something to do, so I can only entrust the three of you to go to Edolas and rescue everyone."
As he spoke, Mystogan tossed a glass bottle to Kenichi.
"Edolas has no magical power. Normally, you can't use magic. Take this medicine, and it will be fine."
Kenichi took the medicine bottle and examined it.
Erza and Mirajane both looked at Kenichi: "Kenichi, we're counting on you. We must save everyone!"
"I understand."
With that, Kenichi used the Heavenly Body Magic, held Erza and Mirajane, and flew directly towards the vortex in the sky.
Soon, Kenichi, Erza, and Mirajane broke through the vortex and arrived in another world, Edolas!
Looking around, numerous islands floated in the sky.
And the plants on the ground below were also very peculiar.
"Another world really exists!"
Mirajane scanned the surroundings and exclaimed in admiration.
But just then, Kenichi's Heavenly Body Magic suddenly became ineffective.
Immediately, the bodies of Kenichi, Erza, and Mirajane went into freefall, plummeting directly towards the ground below.
While falling, Erza urgently asked Kenichi:
"Kenichi, what's going on?"
"Didn't Mystogan just say that in this world, you can't use magic?!"
"Then think of something! We're going to fall!"
"Don't worry, it'll be fine."
Kenichi's Combat Power had already reached 531.4.
From this height, even without using magic, it wouldn't be a problem at all.
Bang…
Then, with a loud sound, Kenichi, holding the two women, Erza and Mirajane, landed safely on the ground.
"You really can't feel any magical power at all!"
After scanning the surroundings, Mirajane spoke.
Kenichi then took out the medicine Mystogan had given him and distributed it to Erza and Mirajane.
After taking the pills, Kenichi spread his palm and channeled magical power.
In the next second, golden lightning bolts appeared on his palm.
"Magic can be used now!"
While Kenichi was thinking, Erza's surprised voice reached his ears: "Look! There's a Fairy Tail Guild over there!"
Hearing Erza, Kenichi and Mirajane both looked up and saw a building shaped like tree roots ahead.
And on that building was a Fairy Tail's symbol.
"It really is the Fairy Tail Guild!"
Mirajane said in a gentle voice, a smile on her face.
While Mirajane was speaking, Erza had already walked towards the location of the guild.
"Let's at least greet them first!"
Seeing Erza's action, Kenichi just thought of reminding her.
But Erza was already knocking on the door.
Soon, the guild door opened.
A blonde girl opened the door with an impatient look.
Seeing the blonde girl before her, Erza was overjoyed: "Lucy?!"
But the Lucy in front of Erza looked as if she'd seen a ghost and shouted in terror: "E... Erza?!"
At the same time, the other people inside the guild were also scared out of their wits, jumping up and down, their faces pale.
Seeing this strange scene, Mirajane tilted her head, her pretty face full of confusion.
But the corner of Kenichi's mouth twitched.
"As expected, this would happen."
Perhaps Mirajane and Erza were still confused about what was happening, but Kenichi knew that both Erza and Lucy had mistaken each other for someone else.
Edolas and Earthland are two adjacent worlds.
The people in these two worlds are also similar.
Earthland has an Erza, and Edolas also has an Erza.
And the two look exactly alike.
The difference is:
The Erza from Earthland is a member of Fairy Tail, known as the Titania.
The Erza from Edolas is an enemy of Fairy Tail, known as the Fairy Hunter.
The members of Fairy Tail in Edolas are all very afraid of this Fairy Hunter.
Just now, when Edolas Lucy saw Erza, she directly mistook her for the Fairy Hunter Erza.
While Erza was looking puzzled, a Fairy Tail's member rushed over and shouted loudly: "The Fairy Hunter, Erza, is here!"
'Fairy Hunter?'
Hearing this title, Erza became even more confused.
But soon, that Fairy Tail member saw Erza in front of the guild and was so scared he fell onto the ground.
"What's going on? Why are there two Erzas?"
At this point, Kenichi had already seen a huge beast charging towards them.
On the forehead of that beast stood a red-haired woman holding a long spear.
This red-haired woman was none other than the Fairy Hunter, Erza.
