"Levy, Salamander, and Droy."
"Are you alright?"
Hope pulled the wooden horse carriage to stand before the three members of Shadow Gear.
Seeing the approaching "pervert" and Gajeel, who was tied to the wooden horse by vines and looked completely broken, Levy and the others subconsciously wanted to step back but forcefully stopped themselves.
Even the incredibly arrogant Gajeel was dealt with by Hope like this. If they accidentally offended him, the consequences would be dire... Hope looked at the three with their strange expressions, feeling awkward himself.
There was no other way; after all, "Ultimate Humiliation" and "Four Pervs" were just too shocking. Their notoriety had spread even to some anime fans who didn't read Hong Kong comics.
Even more so for Hope, the unlucky guy who once transmigrated to the Magnetic Field World.
Although he only stayed in the Magnetic Field World for two years, he was somewhat influenced by those Madmen, so he would sometimes suddenly act "crazy."
Levy quickly recovered her composure, "Hope, we're fine, only Salamander has a slight sprain."
Hope nodded, "Then you guys go back and rest. I need to take this guy to the Master. Iron Dragon Slayer Magic can produce iron objects, so the guild was probably destroyed by him."
Watching Hope pull the wooden horse carriage towards the west of the city, Levy suddenly called out to him, "Hope, are you just going to take Gajeel like that? Isn't that a bit too..."
Indecent.
Levy ultimately didn't say those four words.
But Hope misunderstood, clapped his hands, and said with sudden realization, "Levy, you're so thoughtful. No matter what, we should indeed give Gajeel some face."
Hope plucked a soft leaf from a large tree, used Attachment Spell to enlarge it to the size of a blanket, and then covered Gajeel's head with it.
"Alright, now no one will know he's Gajeel." Hope clapped the dust off his hands, saying with a satisfied expression.
What are you satisfied about?!
Isn't this even stranger?!!
Levy, Salamander, and Droy all shouted in their hearts, but intimidated by Hope's "perverted" nature, they ultimately chose silence.
After all, Gajeel wasn't a guildmate. Let him torment the enemy who destroyed the guild however he pleased. Anyway, the person probably wouldn't die... probably... After bidding farewell to the Shadow Gear team, Hope pulled the wooden horse carriage, parading Gajeel all the way to the residential area in the west of the city. Unfortunately, it was late at night, and no one was out, so the public display was for nothing.

Arriving outside Makarov's house, Hope knocked on the door.
The door opened quickly, but to his surprise, it was Erza who opened it.
"Hope? You've come to see the Master too?"
Erza, dressed in a casual skirt, looked at the person outside the door in surprise, but her attention was immediately drawn to the wooden horse carriage behind him.
The red-haired girl's face visibly flushed.
No matter what, Erza was still just a 19-year-old girl; she had never seen such a stimulating scene.
"Erza, who is it?"
Makarov, in his pajamas, saw Erza frozen at the door and walked over curiously, "Oh, it's Hope. What do you need me for... Wait! What's behind you?"
"I'm telling you, this old man is a decent person!"
Hope's mouth twitched. Isn't saying that just trying to cover up the fact that you're not decent... Who in the guild doesn't know how lecherous this old man is? He's playing 'no silver 300 taels here' with him.
Lifting the "magnified" leaf, Hope explained to Erza and Makarov, "This guy is Gajeel, the Iron Dragon Mage of Phantom Lord."
"He's the culprit who destroyed the guild and attacked the Shadow Gear team again tonight, but I happened upon him and took him down easily."
Hearing that Levy and the other two were attacked, Makarov and Erza instantly became serious, especially Makarov, who regarded all guild members as his children.
Makarov had, of course, heard of Gajeel's reputation.
He couldn't imagine what terrible things Levy, Salamander, and Droy would have endured if Hope hadn't appeared in time.
Hope dispelled his Molding Magic and dragged the utterly unconscious Gajeel into Makarov's house.
A splash of cold water hit his face.
Gajeel immediately woke up.
The moment he opened his eyes, he saw the man who had left him with psychological trauma. "I'm telling you! No matter what other tricks you have, I will not submit to a despicable and shameless scoundrel like you!"
"Tsk, you said it. I'll just force-feed you two catties of croton beans first. Don't blame me if you crap your pants then..."
Erza slapped Hope, who was rummaging through a seed bag, against the wall. "You, what are you doing carrying croton bean seeds for no reason?"
Hope spread his hands innocently, "I was just trying to scare him. What normal person carries croton beans around, let alone the seeds."
"But... I have Oddish seeds here. It's said that this flower is incredibly ugly when it blooms."
"And Itchgrass, Laughing Flower, Crying Leaf Tree, Lily Lotus..."
"That's enough!" x2
Makarov and Erza each landed a punch, directly sending Hope flying out the window.
Seeing the increasingly bizarre magical Plant seeds Hope pulled out, not to mention the sweating Gajeel, even Makarov and Erza felt scared.
They were all things for tormenting people. There was even the Lily Lotus, which could forcibly change one's sexual orientation to same-sex in a short time.
This guy's heart is too dirty!
After calming down, Makarov sat on the sofa, with Erza wiping her long sword on his left and Hope, who had just rolled back in, on his right.
"You already know my methods. These things won't kill you, but you'll definitely cry. And when a person cries, they'll speak their mind."
Hope tossed the seed bag, leaning against the sofa, his gaze sharp as he looked at Gajeel, "Speak. You have at least three things to tell us."
Gajeel's face was extremely grim.
He was currently only bound by a single vine, making it easy to break free, but facing him were Makarov, one of the Ten Wizard Saints, Erza, the fairy queen, and that endlessly sinister scoundrel.
On this continent, there probably wouldn't be more than ten people who could escape in front of these three.
Gajeel knew very well he wasn't one of them.
So... taking a deep breath, Gajeel said, "I'm the one who destroyed your guild."
"Not that one." Hope shook his head.
Gajeel swallowed, "I shouldn't have attacked your comrades."
Hope's face was cold, "Not that one either."
Gajeel's expression stiffened. He hesitated for a moment, then said with a resigned look, "Master Jose... he plans to use the woman named Lucy as the fuse to declare war on your Fairy Tail and completely eliminate you."
Hope immediately beamed with joy, finally hearing what he wanted.
"Don't just kneel there, get up and elaborate."
