Finn speechlessly twitched the corner of his mouth, and make complaints after a long ti, "How long has this situation been going on? Has he gone to see a doctor?"
"Ahaha, Grandpa Crux is just like that, don’t worry about it too much," Lucy said, waving her hands and laughing sheepishly.
But at that mont, Crux looked at Lucy.
He said slowly, "Although I didn’t find anything substantial, I got a lead."
Hearing these words, Lucy was delighted.
"What is it?" She asked.
Crux shook his head slightly, "I need so ti to track down so ancient records in the Celestial Spirit World. I’ll let you know when I get any results."
As he said this, he seed to have fallen asleep again.
"Oh, is he searching for information now?" Wendy asked.
After what had just happened, Wendy had figured it out. As long as this guy was sleeping, he was searching for information.
"No, this ti he’s sleeping..." But Lucy denied Wendy’s guess.
"Huh?" Wendy’s face was full of confusion.
After waving her key, sending the Celestial Spirit back to the Celestial Spirit World, Lucy sighed helplessly, "It seems like we can only know after Grandpa Crux finds sothing."
"Maybe Princess Hisui will have told us by the ti you find sothing..."
Gajeel said, waving his hand.
"Forget it, let’s go back first. I wonder if everyone’s still partying?" Finn patted Lucy’s shoulder, then walked towards the tavern.
——————
The Fairy Tail’s lodging tavern.
Finn pushed open the door.
"We’re back!"
But when he opened the door, it wasn’t the partying scene that Finn had imagined.
The guild mbers were gathered in the middle, each with a heavy expression. It was as if they had encountered sothing tricky.
"What’s wrong, everyone...?" Natsu frowned.
"You guys are back," Mirajane said, coming over to greet them.
"What’s going on?" Finn gestured towards the crowd gathered in front.
Hearing this, Mirajane’s expression also beca a bit heavy.
"Ultear and redy ca back, and they brought soone back..."
As she said this, her gaze turned to Lucy.
"Eh?" Lucy pointed at herself in confusion.
"Is there sothing wrong with ?" She asked.
"Anyway, we don’t know the specifics. Co and take a look," Mirajane said, pointing her slender finger towards the crowd.
Looking at the crowd, Finn frowned slightly.
Although he didn’t know what was going on, Finn sensed that strange magic power that he had caught a glimpse of on the third day.
It was a magic power similar to Zeref’s.
Moving his feet, he squeezed into the crowd. They discovered that it was a black-robed figure who had fainted.
But when they looked at the black-robed figure’s face, their eyes widened in an instant.
"Lucy?!?"
"It’s aaaaaah!!" Lucy also had a shocked expression!
It was past midnight, and it was now July 5th.
In a tavern in Crocus.
Only a few familiar Fairy Tail mbers were still here.
"So, you’re saying you went to the palace and learned about that Eclipse Project?" Erza asked, crossing her arms.
Finn nodded slightly.
"But, after thinking about it carefully, Finn’s explanation makes sense. If the kingdom really has that goal, then we can’t help them open that Eclipse Gate," Makarov said.
"More than that, I’m more concerned about Lucy’s problem," Mavis said, looking at the unconscious black-robed Lucy.
Wendy was performing ergency treatnt on her.
As for this black-robed Lucy, Finn and the others had learned what was going on from Ultear’s explanation.
After the fourth day of the Grand Magic Gas, Ultear and redy had once again sensed that magic power coming from Zeref.
So they followed the magic power and caught up to the black-robed person.
And they discovered that the figure hidden in the black robe was actually Lucy.
Ultear and redy were shocked when they learned this.
But before they could ask anything, the black-robed Lucy had fainted right away.
Not knowing what was going on, the two had no choice but to bring her back.
And that’s how this scene ca about.
Natsu on the side was still staring at the unconscious black-robed Lucy with a confused look.
"Could it be... Lucy from Edolas?" He asked, voicing his confusion.
"Things probably aren’t that simple," Gray said, crossing his arms.
"Could it be Gemini?" Yukino guessed.
As for Finn, he was frowning slightly.
He was thinking about why the figure in front of him had magic power similar to Zeref’s.
After treating her for a while, Wendy stood up.
"How is it, Wendy?" Finn asked the girl.
Wendy shook her head gently, "This Lucy-nee-san should be fine. She was in a state of high tension, so when she relaxed, she fell unconscious."
"I’ve already healed her a bit. She should wake up soon."
"If that’s the case... let’s wait for a bit," Finn nodded.
The scene fell silent.
"Ugh..." Not long after, the black-robed Lucy couldn’t help but let out a groan.
Seeing this, the others imdiately gathered around.
She slowly opened her eyes. The soft light was a bit too much for her.
She blinked her eyes. As her vision gradually changed from blurry to clear, she began to look around.
Familiar faces ca into view.
"You’ve finally woken up," Finn said, appearing in her view.
That familiar gentleness and smile made her space out a little.
Her lips began to tremble slightly. Then, her entire body, wrapped in the black robe, began to tremble.
Tears began to uncontrollably well up in her eyes, then slid down her cheeks, finally dripping onto the ground.
"Finn... Natsu... Gray, Erza, and everyone..."
A trembling voice slowly echoed.
"I... finally... get to see you again..."
"What... what’s going on?" Looking at the crying figure in front of them, the others stared at each other.
Expressions of confusion were written on everyone’s faces.
The black-robed Lucy seed to have vented her emotions. She wiped away her tears.
"I ca here through the Eclipse... The Lucy from the future," She raised her head.
The sadness in her eyes was clear.
"You’re saying you’re from the future?" Natsu asked.
"Ca through the Eclipse?" Lucy said in surprise.
Makarov ca in front of the Lucy from the future, looking at the tears that ca from her true feelings.
He believed the Lucy from the future’s words, "It seems like you really are from the future."
"Child, can you tell us why you ca back to this era?" He asked softly.
The Lucy from the future’s voice seed to have beco hoarse from the sadness.
"I’m from a broken future..."
"A survivor."
—————
Under the others’ questioning, the Lucy from the future said the reason she had co back.
"In my mories, we were captured and locked up in the palace’s prison on this very day. Until [that mont] ca, we were still locked up in the prison."
"That mont?" Finn seized on this keyword.
"What exactly happened in your future?" Sheyna asked.
The Lucy from the future couldn’t help but clench her fists, and her body began to tremble.
