Chapter 242 - Chapter 241 Why does my heart still ache so much?

August, who was being embraced by Medivh and shown off to everyone in the guild, seemed to sense something too. He turned his head, looked in the direction of Mavis's soul, and gave a faint smile, thinking to himself, "Seeing that Mother has fulfilled her wish and built the world's greatest Mage guild, I am relieved. Even though Mother never took care of me, I no longer resent you, for you did not know of my existence. You need not know of my existence either. Just think of me as one of the members of the Fairy Tail Guild, and that is enough."

Well, after a long time, August had let go of many things.

How strange.

Mavis murmured, touching her moist eyes. For some reason, she just wanted to cry, inexplicably wanting to shed tears.

Mavis...

Meanwhile, Precht, on the second floor of the guild, felt a sharp pain in his heart when he saw Mavis crying. He desperately wanted to confess to Mavis that August was her child, but he couldn't, because if he did, he would have to explain why he abandoned August in the first place.

Damn it!

Why does my heart still ache so much?

If, if...

If I had adopted Mavis's child back then?

Would things be different now?!

If I hadn't abandoned Mavis's child, then Mavis's child would be calling me Father now! Would I then have the chance to stand closer to Mavis?!

Precht didn't know why, but even though he had already placed Grimoire Heart in the basement of the Fairy Tail Guild and cast the highest defensive spells on it, his chest still hurt so much that he could barely breathe.

It hurts! It hurts so much!

At this moment, the world where only Old Precht gets hurt was born once again.

Well, even though Medivh had nearly perfectly completed Precht's entrusted simulation, after the task was done, only Precht ended up getting hurt!

Old Precht was either breaking down or on his way to breaking down.

Father...

May I ask? What is your relationship with Lord August?!

Just as Medivh, slightly tipsy, was enthusiastically promoting his wonderful son August to everyone in Fairy Tail, Erza, who had been silently watching by the job board, widened her eyes in shock.

Wait, what is going on?

That 'Magic King' August, who alongside Mother Eileen Belserion in the distant West Continent Alakitasia's Alvarez Empire, is hailed as the Empire's Twin Pillars, the Empire's Regent, and whom Mother calls her strongest ally and most formidable rival—he is also Father's child?!

Incredible...

Oh, right!

I forgot to introduce you siblings to each other.

Erza and Eley, this is my youngest son August, your younger brother.

Medivh first introduced August's identity to Erza and Eley.

August, the two standing before you are my eldest daughter and second daughter, Erza and Eley.

You should call them sisters.

Go on, call them sisters.

Then Medivh introduced Erza and Eley's identities to August.

Good morning, Sister Erza and Sister Eley~

Upon hearing this, August politely looked at Erza and Eley, smiled, and called them sisters.

To be honest, August wasn't too surprised that Medivh had children other than him. After all, his father was so outstanding; he would surely have excellent women worthy of him.

However, when August clearly saw Erza's face, he was still stunned. He couldn't believe his eyes and thought to himself, "Wait, hold on! Let me think carefully. If I'm not mistaken, the girl with crimson hair standing before me is none other than Eileen's daughter, Erza Belserion, right?"

"Wait, that means Erza calls Eileen Mother and calls Father 'Father.' So, does that mean Father and Lady Eileen are husband and wife?"

"In other words, from now on, I will have to call Lady Eileen 'Mother' too? Unbelievable."

For the first time, August realized what it meant when the world was so small that everyone was an acquaintance.

Huh?

That 'Magic King' August called me sister?

Meanwhile, Erza was also stunned. Her eyes were wide open, looking utterly incredulous.

In other words, from today onward, that child August will have to call me Mother? That's quite interesting.

In the West Continent, the Alvarez Empire, Eileen, who was observing Medivh, Erza, and Eley's movements through a remote communication crystal ball, was shocked to discover that she had suddenly become a mother! She had been eating melon and ended up being the melon herself.
