Makarov dashed forward, rushing in front of August. His rough, large hands tightly gripped August's shoulders, as if Makarov was incredibly afraid that August would run away again. He shouted: "I knew it, you are real! You are not a figment of my imagination! Back then, it was you who saved Wraith, it was you who healed his wounds! I said it before, I, Makarov, will never forget every single person in the guild. Even if one day I forget everything, I will absolutely never forget the appearance and names of my family."
Makarov truly had unspeakable bitterness! More than sixty years ago, ever since August acknowledged the Fairy Tail Guild and left, among the entire Fairy Tail Guild, the only one who still remembered August was Makarov, who relied on the magic of the heart to overcome things. Even Precht had forgotten August. Everyone said Makarov had developed hysteria, which made Makarov so angry his nose was crooked.
Now, after more than sixty years, when August finally appeared in the Fairy Tail Guild again, it was enough to prove that he, Makarov, did not have hysteria!
Well, at this moment, Makarov really wanted to summon all the partners from the guild back then, and then shout loudly: "August is real!!!"
"Er..."
August looked at Makarov, who was acting frantic, hugging him while crying and laughing. Deep down, he suddenly felt a little guilty. To be honest, he hadn't expected...
That a small joke he played on Makarov when he was a teenager over sixty years ago would cause such a huge psychological impact on Makarov?!
If he had known, he wouldn't have done it back then.
As expected, he was too immature back then.
"August? Makarov..."
Just at the moment Makarov revealed August's identity, the memories Precht had had sealed by August were immediately restored. Everything regarding August in his mind came flooding back.
"Er..."
For a moment, Precht's expression changed. He never expected that he and August had already met countless times over sixty years ago! However, the revenge from August that Precht had imagined did not happen.
"Could it be..."
Thinking of this, Precht's eyes lit up.
Could it be that August had forgiven him for what he did back then?!
If that was the case, there was still a turning point. Could he still make up for the mistakes he had committed before?! Was there still a possibility for him to stand closest to Mavis?!
"Precht, don't delude yourself..."
"I have not forgiven you! Of course, I don't hate you either..."
"I don't have any feelings for you."
"It was Medivh who raised me; he is my father."
"It was Makarov who taught me what the feelings between family members are!"
"And you, you had better keep your mouth shut and not reveal my background, otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite to you..."
Just at the moment Precht thought a turning point had appeared, that he had a chance to obtain August's forgiveness and successfully stand beside Mavis...
August's voice slowly rang in his mind, like a great bell, shaking Precht's soul.
Precht looked over and saw August, who was hugging and crying with Makarov, staring fixedly at him on the second floor of the guild with a pair of cold eyes, with ruthlessness and warning flashing in the depths of his eyes.
"No, I..."
At this moment, Precht shut himself off again.
It was clearly he, Precht, who came first!
It was clearly he, Precht, who discovered August; it was he who delivered August.
Why?!
But why?
Why is it always him who gets hurt?!
"Precht, what on earth is wrong with you? Precht!"
At this time, Yuri, who had been watching everything in the first-floor hall with a smile while quietly eating melon, seemed to have noticed something. He looked at the swaying Precht beside him and asked nervously.
"No, it's nothing..."
"I'm doing just fine, I've never been better."
Precht smiled somewhat stiffly; he seemed to be answering Yuri, but also seemed to be saying it to himself.
"No! I absolutely cannot give up just like this!"
"I still have a turning point..."
"That's right, I can summon all the members who left the Fairy Tail Guild back then and hold a grand Fairy Tail feast!"
"By then, whether it's August or Mavis, they will both forgive me..."
Just when Precht was about to break down, he suddenly thought of something and, as if injected with adrenaline, he was resurrected on the spot.
Well, where is the most powerful part of a simp?
Is it the simp's persistence?!
No, it is not!
It is the simp's incomparably powerful self-healing ability!
Just like Wolverine and Deadpool.
Can't kill, simply can't kill.
No matter how many times the goddess hurts him?!
He still treats the goddess like his first love.
At this moment, Precht decided he would contact Blue Pegasus Guild Master Bob, Quatro Cerberus Guild Master Goldmine, Rob who was temporarily leading the Grimoire Heart Guild (rescued from the dungeon when Old Precht destroyed Brain's territory), and Wraith who was traveling to the North Continent, and summon them all back!
To hold a grand Fairy Tail parade.
To let Mavis and August take a good look at how much he, Precht Gaebolg, had paid over these years to protect the best Mavis in the world!
And also to let the world see just how powerful the current Magic Guild Fairy Tail is?!
