Moen introduced Emerald to Mira, Lisanna, and Elfman, then let Emerald go with Lisanna to get acquainted with her companions, while he went to find Grandpa Makarov on his own.
Makarov had only been with the guild for a short time, and after dealing with some matters, he was drinking alone in his cabin.
"Did you stay at Laxus yesterday?"
Upon seeing Moen enter, Makarov asked a question. The old man sat alone at his desk, carrying a bottle of wine, his expression indifferent, making it difficult to tell whether he was happy or unhappy.
Moen felt that he was probably not very happy.
"Yes, I helped him move there and stayed overnight."
Moen answered, observing Grandpa Makarov's expression. The old man clearly supported his actions.
"Ton ton ton~"
"You can stay there longer."
After taking a sip of his drink, Makarov expressed his thoughts. Just as Moen had thought, he agreed that Moen should stay at Laxus's house for a while longer. In the old man's heart, maintaining a good relationship between the two younger generation was much more important than keeping him company.
Especially since Laxus was already somewhat detached from the group, and now he's moved out to live alone, he needs someone to act as a unifier to prevent him from getting more and more stuck in his own thoughts.
"As long as he doesn't have a girlfriend, I can definitely go whenever I want. He can't just not let me in, can he?"
Moen spoke with a smile, which made Makarov laugh as well.
"Laxus. It's unlikely to happen anytime soon."
Makarov thought for a moment and shook his head. He felt that Laxus didn't seem like he would find a girlfriend anytime soon.
Laxus is almost eighteen, but his first reaction to girls is still to see if they are strong enough. He doesn't have any other thoughts at all. With his current personality, how can he attract girls?
Makarov glanced at Moen and thought that if Laxus had even a tenth of Moen's ability to get along with girls, he wouldn't have to worry about this. Unfortunately, Laxus was completely clueless.
On the other hand, Moen had too many girls around him, which worried Makarov. The two were like two extremes.
Perhaps it's because Moen has always been closer to Gildarts since he was little, but Makarov feels that this kid might grow up to be even more popular than Gildarts.
But how should I put it?
When it comes to matters of the heart, as long as it's mutual, there's not much others can say.
"What's the deal with that jade?"
Makarov looked at Moen and asked about the newcomer, Emerald. It wasn't that he wanted to find out her background; since a newcomer had arrived, and Moen had personally brought her in, he naturally wanted to show his concern.
Looking at Wendy and Juvia that Moen brought back before, they were both quite remarkable. Makarov felt that this emerald must also be extraordinary.
"Emerald E. Fiore is the daughter of King Thomas, the sole heir to the Kingdom of Fiore, and the future queen."
Moen began by briefly explaining Emerald's background and identity.
He could keep it a secret from others, but he trusted Grandpa Makarov completely, and Grandpa Makarov definitely had to know about this.
After all, Emerald's identity and background are quite significant. She is King Thomas's only son and the future queen of the Kingdom of Fiore. They couldn't keep it a secret from the guild leader by bringing such a person into the guild.
"You really did bring a troublesome person here."
Upon hearing the identity of the jade, Makarov remarked that the jade was truly a hot potato.
"There's no need to worry too much. Just treat her like an ordinary guild member. She's not short of money and doesn't need to do any dangerous commissions. She's mainly here to learn."
Moen began to speak, saying that when he brought Emerald back, he had of course considered these issues, including the impact of her identity.
If they were to bring back a little princess, that wouldn't fit the spirit of Fairy Tail. They wouldn't give Emerald any special treatment, nor would they arrange any bodyguards for her.
They will protect Emerald not because of her identity, but simply because she joined Fairy Tail and became a member. Fairy Tail will protect every member.
"You just need to know your apprentice's situation."
After listening to Moen's words, Makarov nodded without saying anything more. He believed that Moen would be able to handle these matters well.
Don't worry.
Moen nodded, then chatted with Grandpa Makarov for a few more minutes about other things, recounting his experience on this mission.
Helping the Heartfilia Foundation solve problems can be considered "official business," since the collaboration with the Heartfilia Foundation is with "Fairy Tail," not with Moen personally.
Makarov actually knew pretty much everything, after all, Fairy Tail had sent quite a few people to the south to participate in the cleanup operation.
He was quite surprised that things had turned out this way; he hadn't expected the South to have nurtured so much evil.
Originally, everyone thought that by leveraging the fame of "Fairy Tail," they could basically get the job done.
Unfortunately, some people are ungrateful and eventually have to break off all pretense of civility.
"As long as things proceed smoothly, that's a good outcome."
Makarov began by saying that the outcome was actually better than they had initially expected; not only had the railway project been successfully implemented, but some long-standing local problems had also been resolved.
The grandfather and grandson chatted about other topics and exchanged feelings before Moen took the initiative to leave. He was going to take Emerald to see Master Voltava and Lyra, the star spirit of Lyra.
After leaving the old man's office, Moen looked around and then saw Emerald playing with the children.
This princess of the Kingdom of Fiore had absolutely no arrogance and didn't let the children realize her identity.
Emerald took the initiative to hide her identity, and she was sure she would be careful not to expose herself. She played with the children very smoothly.
Although she was also gentle and kind, she quickly revealed a different side of herself. She was more outgoing and generous than Wendy and Juvia, unlike the two who were more introverted.
It can only be said that Mira has a bit of a stereotype about Moen. Although Emerald looks cute and well-behaved, she has a generous and outgoing personality. She and the other two are actually not the same type of person.
"Jade, come here for a second."
Moen called out to Emerald, helping her to leave the children. As a newcomer, everyone was still curious about her and kept asking her questions. Moen's gesture helped Emerald out of the predicament.
Emerald left the children and ran over.
"Master, what's wrong?"
Emerald's little face was flushed; she was excited after making a bunch of new friends, and everyone was very friendly to her.
"I'm taking you to meet someone, and a Celestial."
Moen smiled and kept everyone in suspense.
"Is that Master Vltava?!"
Emerald's eyes lit up, and she blurted out the name.
"That's right."
Moen smiled and nodded, not surprised that Emerald could guess this. The boy had been learning the harp before and had seen his performance with Maestro Vltava a few days ago.
"Is it a Lyra spirit?"
The master and apprentice left the guild hall, talking as they walked. Emerald had already guessed who they were going to meet.
The main reason is that Moen had told her about these things before, and Emerald already knew that Moen's harp and chanting abilities were learned from Master Voltava and Lyra, the Lyra spirit.
"Yes, it just so happens that you are also a Celestial Spirit Mage. Master Voltawa and I were thinking that perhaps we could have you sign a contract with the Lyra Celestial Spirit as well, which would make it easier for you to learn the harp."
Since Emerald had already guessed it, Moen stopped keeping them in suspense and revealed his and Voltava's plans.
"Really?! I'll definitely do my best!"
Hearing Moen's words, Emerald happily said that although she was going to learn "Lyra Celestial Magic" from Moen, it did not mean that she would give up her previous "Celestial Magic".
She can still summon the Celestial Spirits and still loves them. She will do her best to gain the approval of the Lyra Celestial Spirits.
First impressions are crucial when forming a contract with the Protoss.
Often, a good first impression is what leads to a lasting relationship. If the first impression is very bad, it's very difficult to make up for it later.
It's not that obtaining a key to a celestial being guarantees the ability to summon that celestial being; celestial beings also have the right to refuse a contract.
Of course, aside from exceptionally outrageous summoners, the Celestials generally won't refuse, since very few Celestial Mages would treat Celestials badly; someone like Kallen is truly rare.
As a Celestial Spirit Mage, she doesn't even bother to protect her livelihood; I don't know what's wrong with her brain.
Emerald is clearly not an oddball like Karen, so Moen isn't worried about whether Emerald can gain the approval of Lyra, the Lyra celestial spirit. Lyra isn't a very picky celestial spirit, and she will definitely accept Emerald, who likes harps.
The master and apprentice arrived at the theater and met Master Voltava and Lila. Things were progressing just as Moen had predicted.
Emerald and Lila hit it off immediately and quickly reached a contractual agreement. Judging from Lila's satisfied expression, she practically wished Master Voltava would just give the key to Emerald. She preferred playing with young girls.
"Really."
Master Voltawa chuckled helplessly at the result, and then he actually took out the key, preparing to give it to the jade.
"I can't accept this!"
This completely stumped Jade. Even the poised and elegant princess stammered, waving her hands repeatedly in refusal.
"Lila has been with me long enough. It's time to hand her over to the younger generation. Moen doesn't need her. Let her keep you company."
Voltava smiled and spoke, he was very serious. He rarely summoned Lila anymore, so it would be better to give the key to the young Emerald so that Lila would have more opportunities to be summoned. Moreover, this could also be considered a kind of inheritance from his master.
