Chen Fan looked at the very large Moon Temple and said with anticipation, "I hope this journey won't be too boring." After speaking, he walked step by step toward the top.
Meanwhile, on a pirate ship not too far from Demon Island, Erza stood majestically on the deck, looking at Galuna Island in the distance.
The pirate captain turned to Erza. "What do you want to do on that island?"
"Don't ask. Just steer the ship."
"Have mercy on us! Galuna Island is a cursed island, rumored to turn humans into demons!"
"I'm not interested."
"Really?"
"I will punish those who break the rules, that's all. Especially that man named Chen Fan. I will make his life a living hell!" Erza said through gritted teeth, clenching her fists.
"Cool! So awesome! Whatever Sis says, we'll do it! Let's go and punish that Chen Fan together! Who told him to make Sis angry?!"
"Is that so? Amazing! I didn't expect Chen Fan's reputation to be so famous that it reached you guys. That really touches my heart."
"Oh..."
"Hatchiih!" Chen Fan rubbed his nose and tightened his jacket. He wondered what was wrong with him lately, always sneezing. Could it be that some young women were thinking about him again? 'It's a problem being too charming,' Chen Fan thought shamelessly.
Chen Fan walked inside the Moon Temple. In his heart, he didn't care about Deliora or anything. However, this journey was necessary; otherwise, a seed of regret would forever be in Gray's heart. Maybe Gray hadn't realized it yet, but the progress of his magic was now becoming slower and slower.
No matter what ability it was, it had to be controlled with the heart. Makarov had a great love for Fairy Tail, Natsu had a longing for the Fire Dragon, Laxus wanted to change his grandfather's mind, and Erza had fears from her childhood. Whether good or bad intentions, they would ultimately make a person stronger. A strong person would inevitably have a strong heart.
Actually, this mission was the easiest for Chen Fan, but he wouldn't stop what was bound to happen, because it was a process, a process that would make them stronger.
While walking around, Chen Fan also saw Gray's senior brother, Lyon, his three subordinates, and Ultear. Everything seemed to be like in the original plot, which made Chen Fan relieved.
After Ultear finished talking to Lyon, Chen Fan sent a message to her, and as expected, Ultear followed him.
One in front and one behind, they flew outside. Chen Fan landed in an open forest, followed by Ultear, who stopped behind him.
"Who are you?" Ultear asked.
Chen Fan turned around and looked at Ultear, who was wearing a mask and pretending to be a man. He felt awkward no matter how he looked at her. "Ultear, your disguise is really too ugly."
Hearing Chen Fan's words, Ultear was a little surprised, not knowing how this man knew her identity. She said, "How do you know my identity?" While speaking, she released her disguise.
"We're old friends, why wouldn't I know?"
"Who exactly are you?" Chen Fan thought, 'Why are we back to this question again?' He was just himself. He didn't realize that his current clothes were too different from his usual ones, almost more like a disguise than Ultear's.
"I'm Chen Fan, can't you tell?" he said, feeling depressed.
"Chen Fan?!" Ultear was very shocked.
Chen Fan looked at the beautiful woman. To be honest, he couldn't guess what this person was thinking. "Did Chairman Hades tell you to do something after seeing me?"
"Run." While speaking, she took an attacking stance.
"Oh... then what are you doing?" Chen Fan said playfully, looking at Ultear who was preparing to attack.
"Oh, earth, accelerate your decay!" After Ultear finished shouting, a large magic circle appeared under her feet, and the ground began to crack little by little. "Will..." Crystal balls appeared one by one around Ultear. "Go!" With a wave of her hand, the crystal balls shot toward Chen Fan.
"Boom boom..." A large cloud of dust rose, blocking Ultear's view. "Did I hit him?!"
"Hey, hey, don't think that. If I die, you'll become a widow," Chen Fan's teasing voice came from behind Ultear, startling her. She quickly jumped from her spot, turned around, and stared at Chen Fan cautiously.
"Whoosh." All the shattered crystal balls from before floated around Ultear again. Only then did Ultear say, "How did you get past it?"
"I just came over." Chen Fan stomped his foot, and with a "whoosh...", he instantly appeared in front of Ultear, only about 10 centimeters from her face, looking into her eyes as he spoke.
Ultear was shocked again. She backed away again, quickly slapped her hands on the ground, and yelled loudly, "Oh, earth, accelerate your decay!" An even bigger magic circle appeared on the ground, and countless crystal balls appeared around Ultear. She yelled with determination, "Go!"
This time, Chen Fan didn't dodge. Countless crystal balls hit around Chen Fan, but they couldn't get close to him. A transparent, spherical protective shield seemed to form around Chen Fan, and Chen Fan stood inside the shield, smiling as he looked at Ultear.
"Impossible!" Ultear screamed in disbelief.
"Nothing is impossible," Chen Fan said. After speaking, he stomped his foot, and the ground shattered like a mirror. With a wave of his hand, all the shattered earth formed a large torrent, heading toward Ultear.
Ultear quickly dodged. With a "whoosh," Chen Fan appeared in front of her again, his hand gripping Ultear's neck. Ultear struggled hard, but the more she struggled, the tighter Chen Fan's grip became.
