Darwin did not know Celestial Spirit Magic.
To him, gathering all twelve keys of the Zodiac wasn't an earth-shattering priority. However, because this was "something Weston never finished," it held a unique significance.
Chris, hearing this, immediately grew interested as well.
"Heh—"
"That sounds kind of fun!"
"Something even Dad couldn't finish, but we did... in a way, doesn't that prove we're even more amazing than him?!"
"I like the idea. I'm in!"
With their minds made up, the three turned back to Elefseria.
"So, have you decided what you want?"
"Yes!"
The three nodded and voiced their respective requests.
"I see... a powerful set of armor or a weapon, and Celestial Spirit Keys?"
"The things you've chosen are quite excellent! At least they're far more useful than what I imagined."
Elefseria stroked his long beard and nodded approvingly. "Very well, I shall give these to you as gifts!"
The three were visibly delighted. "So, how exactly do we go about it?"
"My Spatial Teleportation magic can transfer any existence from one place in the world to another. When combined with the information-gathering capabilities of Law Dragon Slayer Magic, I can summon items from the far corners of the earth right before my eyes!"
Darwin and the others were once again deeply shocked.
"If that's the case, can't you have whatever you want?"
Erza, being blunt, accidentally let her inner thoughts slip: "No wonder you've been able to live in this guild for so long without ever leaving. Don't tell me your daily necessities, food, and water are all stolen from around the world using this method?"
Elefseria took offense. "What do you mean 'stolen'? How rude! I call it 'taking'!!"
"No, that's definitely just stealing!"
"Alright, let's not dwell on that topic. You wanted the most powerful armor, right? I'll find it for you now!"
Elefseria closed his eyes, channeled his magic, and began searching the entire world for legendary magic armor. After a long while, he reopened his eyes. "There is a set of magic armor called the Nakagami Armor. It suits you perfectly!"
"The Nakagami Armor?"
Erza paused. "I think I've heard the Guild Master mention that armor. He said it possesses immense power, but the magic required to unleash its full potential is so vast that almost no one has been able to use it in the last century..."
Elefseria nodded. "You're right! But with your strength, I believe you can draw out the true power of this set."
Erza gave a confident smile. "Of course I can!"
"Good!"
With the target confirmed, Elefseria tapped his magic staff lightly on the floor. Instantly, surging magic poured out, creating ripples in the air that condensed into a brilliant magic circle. The circle glowed intensely, the space fluctuated, and a flash of white light burst forth.
As the light faded, a slightly dull, green-and-gold set of armor appeared before them! It was a complete set: a breastplate for the upper body, an armored skirt and iron boots for the lower body, and finally, a massive blade over two meters long as a weapon.
However, perhaps because it couldn't be used, the Nakagami Armor had been left idle by its owner for far too long; it was currently covered in dust.
"This is the legendary Nakagami Armor?!"
Erza stepped forward to inspect it closely, unable to resist touching it, which left her hand covered in dust. She gently wiped the dust away; wherever her palm passed, the armor seemed to regain its vitality, shining once more.
"The Nakagami Armor truly lives up to its name. It's no ordinary item!!"
Once Erza had happily stowed the armor away, Elefseria turned his attention to the siblings, Darwin and Chris.
"While my magic can indeed obtain any item from anywhere in the world, I mostly take 'unowned objects' to avoid causing trouble for others."
"This Nakagami Armor technically had an owner, but it had been neglected for so long that the treasure was gathering dust, practically the same as being unowned, which is why I could take it."
"However, the Zodiac keys you desire are mostly owned objects, so..."
At this point, the two understood his meaning and agreed with his logic. If those keys weren't being used, stealing them was one thing, but if they already belonged to someone, taking them by force would be unethical.
"So, you can't get them?" Darwin's voice sounded slightly disappointed.
Elefseria shook his head. "I can't get all of them, but I can get two... specifically, two that your family doesn't have yet."
Years ago, during Weston's trip to the Royal Capital, he had obtained the Ophiuchus, Sagittarius, Aries, and Gemini keys. While wiping out the remnants of the Dark Alliance, he had also acquired the Pisces key. Of those, he had gifted Sagittarius and Aries to his guild comrade, Sura. Over the years, he had gradually collected Taurus, Virgo, and Scorpio.
By that count, they were still missing Cancer, Capricorn, Leo, Libra, and Aquarius.
"Currently, among those five, only the Libra and Leo keys are unowned. I can retrieve them for you. As for the other three, I'm afraid I cannot."
"I see..." Darwin thought it over and nodded. "That's still very good. Please teleport those two keys over!"
Elefseria nodded and repeated the process, using his Spatial Teleportation magic to summon the Libra and Leo keys, handing them to Darwin and Chris respectively.
"As for the final three keys, although I cannot take them directly, I can tell you where they are located. If you truly intend to complete the Zodiac set, you might as well go and try. Whether you can obtain them depends on your own ability!"
There was a catch like that? Darwin hadn't expected this turn of events and was immediately overjoyed. "Really??"
"Cancer and Capricorn are in Ishgar, held by the same person. As for Aquarius, it is currently right here in Guiltina!"
Chris followed up quickly: "Where?!"
Elefseria led the three to a large map of the continent in the center of the guild. He pointed to a city in the south. "Right here. A port city located southwest of the Valeria region, Ermina!"
