Chapter 134 Chess and Mira Attack the Tower of Paradise!

After a few seconds of hesitation, Mira, having composed herself, tentatively asked, "Chase, you should already know something, right? Is this assassination really related to Lucy?"

When she suggested taking the three crows back for separate interrogation, she noticed something was wrong with Chase, even though they could have started right away.

The hasty dismissal of her companions further confirmed her suspicions: Chase probably already knew the identity of the mastermind!

"You noticed after all, as expected of you—"

Chase was taken aback at first, then sighed softly.

Is that why you immediately "coaxed" Elfman to sleep?

He wasn't in a hurry to explain. Instead, he brewed tea for himself and Mira before saying in a deep voice, "When I was brainwashing the bird-headed man, I did indeed obtain information about the person behind it all."

"However, the one connected to him isn't Lucy, but rather—"

"Erza".

Mira's pupils contracted as she took the tea, utterly surprised: "Erza?!"

"Yes, the situation is quite serious. Are you able to contact the president now?"

"Sure, I have an emergency contact crystal here."

"Then let's wait until he gets here before we talk about it."

"clear."

Soon, Makarov arrived after receiving the message, wearing adorable pajamas that were not appropriate for his age.

Chess greeted him and handed him a cup of hot tea.

After casually taking a sip to clear his head, Makarov asked with a serious expression, "Mira, what exactly happened? How did Erza get involved with the assassination guild?"

On his way here, he had already learned from Mira about all the things that had happened that night.

Upon hearing this, Mira turned her gaze to Chase.

"Let's have the guys from the Three Crows come out and explain."

Chase threw out the card, releasing the three crows that were trapped inside.

"Come on, you pervert! Even if you use that filthy thing on me—"

Before the dove could finish her words of shame and indignation, the magic circle lit up again, trapping her and Vidarudas inside a new card, leaving only the brainwashed owl behind.

I don't know if the turtledove held back or if this guy was just tough enough, but it hasn't completely died yet.

Under Chase's orders, the dazed Owl spilled everything he knew: Gerald, the Tower of Paradise, Zeref's ghost...

"The R system, wasn't it cleaned up by the council a long time ago?!" Mira covered her mouth in surprise.

She had heard of the name before; it was a project established ten years ago to revive the cult of dark magic, and it had several locations.

"I can't believe that such an extremely dangerous thing is still operating and is almost finished?!"

Even Makarov, who was used to seeing big scenes, felt a chill run down his spine.

If that thing were to be completed, it would cause immeasurable destruction to the stability of the current magical world!

According to the bird-headed man, this R system seems to be the one where his friend Rob died and Erza escaped.

"But what does this have to do with Erza?" Mira, unaware of the reasoning, noticed the key point.

"When Erza was imprisoned during the Lalabai incident, she told me about her past."

Chase put down his teacup and gave a brief explanation of the connection between Erza, Jellal, and the Tower of Paradise.

After hearing this, Mira's expression suddenly turned serious.

"I see. I haven't heard Erza mention any of these things before—..." Makarov frowned.

He only knew that Erza escaped from the liberated Tower of Paradise with the help of Rob, but he was unaware of the details inside.

Erza, burdened by the lives of her childhood friends, has never dared to mention Jellal's existence, much less implicate Fairy Tail.

So before the Tower of Paradise incident, she had been "living in pain" and even considered giving her life for the safety of her companions.

"But that makes things complicated."

Makarov stared intently at the teacup before him, its contents rippling in the sunlight.

We can't just let Jellal continue with the R system, as it involves Erza and innocent people. We also can't just report it to the council, not to mention the unpredictable factor of Jellal's brother Zekeline in the council!

(The three crows did not know that Zekrein was Gerald)

"Actually, it's not that complicated."

Chase clapped his fists together, his eyes gleaming with fighting spirit, and laughed, "Let me go there, guild master. I guarantee I'll tear that damn tower to smithereens!"

One reason why the Tower of Paradise wasn't dealt with earlier was because we were preoccupied with the issues with Uru and Phantom Lord.

Another, and more important, reason is that he wasn't very confident he could take down Gerrard.

Putting aside the immense strength of the Ten Wizard Saints, even among those of the same level, Jellal, who excels in celestial magic and is known for his speed, is a clear counter to him:

It's possible that before you can even activate your card, the opponent's Meteor will already be right in front of you. How are you supposed to fight then?

However, the situation is quite different now.

Chase's mastery of the Sky Dragon's God-Slaying Magic has given him considerable combat power, making up for his only weakness.

Moreover, he gained practical experience from the battle with the Ice Flame Dragon.

With card magic, god-slaying magic, and ample mana, defeating Jellal is practically a sure thing!

"Chess! Are you an idiot? Do you know how dangerous this is?!" Makarov shouted.

"Our guild's affairs are our guild's affairs."

Chase didn't back down. "Grandpa, you wouldn't want to see Erza living in pain and self-blame, would you?!"

These words silenced Makarov, who sat there and sighed heavily.

Upon careful consideration, it seems there is no more suitable way.

However, given the complexity of the situation, sending Chase over would be too risky. Mira noticed his concern and said firmly, "President, let me go with Chase."

Before Makarov could speak, Chess immediately chimed in, "Wait, Mira, you'd better not get involved in this."

Although they were confident of defeating Gerald, having an S-class teammate with them would naturally make things more secure.

Erza is definitely not suitable, Mystogan's whereabouts are uncertain, and Laxus, who is still in his rebellious phase, is even less suitable.

All things considered, Mira is undoubtedly the best choice!

"Don't refuse, Chess! If it weren't for Erza's help, I might still be wandering the streets as a monster!"

Mira understood immediately and replied, "Now, it's my turn to help her!"

When she first arrived at Fairy Tail, the aftereffects of awakening magic (the Devil Arm) caused her to live in inferiority and fear.

Erza realized this at the time, which is why she used arguments and even fights to gradually integrate Erza into the guild.

Although it eventually evolved into a pure fight based on personal grudges, this is precisely where Erza's unique gentleness lies.

Therefore, Mira couldn't bear to see Erza being threatened and deprived of her freedom like this!

"Stop your charade, you two troublesome brats!"

How could Makarov not see that Mira was speaking to him?

At this point, he had actually agreed with Chase's suggestion; having Mira along made him feel much more at ease.

But when he thought of his usually well-behaved and obedient baby Mila, who stood on Chase's side without hesitation, the old man felt a pang of pain in his heart: Do we look like the kind of stupid parents who don't understand their children's feelings?

"I agree to attack the Tower of Paradise, but—"

Makarov composed himself, straightened his expression, and solemnly instructed, "You must prioritize your own safety. Do not force yourselves, and absolutely do not act recklessly!"

Chess and Mira exchanged a glance and said in unison, "Yes, President!"
