----------

"Fairy Tail" is also the protagonist?!

What kind of standing is this, to be treated the same as me?

Oh, it turns out I'm also a member of Fairy Tail, so never mind.

According to Gothic Lolita, there was an accident while nurturing the previous child of the world, which caused great losses to Earth Land.

So she learned from the painful experience and decided not to nurture any more children of the world.

Instead, in each era, she searches for people who love the world and have firm beliefs, granting them powerful strength when they encounter difficulties or crises.

How much of this temporary strength they can retain in the end depends entirely on their own potential.

Noah generally refers to this behavior as 'cheating.'

With the Earth Land Will personally granting cheats, "Fairy Tail" members are also doing well, but Noah hasn't seen anyone 'burst' since joining the guild.

Perhaps the crises encountered haven't been severe enough.

The guild's only remotely dangerous moment was when Jose led Phantom Lord to attack Fairy Tail.

The result was Phantom Lord's crushing defeat, and Jose himself was almost kicked around like a ball by Laxus, Erza, and Mystogan combined, and finally, Noah struck him, leaving half his body paralyzed.

Because they haven't reached a desperate situation, they can't receive the burst buff from the Earth Land Will...

Let's stop talking about 'cheating' for now. Noah is actually more interested in another matter. According to the Lolita girl, the extinction of the Dragon race was caused by the corruption of the previous child of the world of Earth Land.

Noah has certainly heard of this person's great name.

Although the Magic Council and various kingdoms prohibit the publicity of his existence, if one tries to find him, they can easily find snippets of information about this Dragon race slayer in relevant books.

The Dragon Slayer, the Black Dragon Acnologia.

Gothic Lolita did not deny it. "Acnologia is not his real name; his name is Will, and he was originally a kind human healer."

"According to my plan, Acnologia was to resolve the conflict between Dragons and humans, but later... alas..."

With a heavy sigh, Gothic Lolita did not continue.

But even if she didn't say it, Noah knew what happened later, because history was right there.

Acnologia was corrupted for some reason, chose to become a Dragon Slayer, and eventually transformed into a Dragon himself, directly wiping out the Dragon race.

In a sense, Acnologia perfectly executed the Earth Land Will's plan, striving to resolve the conflict between Dragons and humans.

It's just that Acnologia's method of doing things was a little extreme.

He directly eliminated the source of the problem, which was the Dragon race...

With no Dragons, the conflict between humans and Dragons naturally disappeared.

Gothic Lolita could tell Noah was very interested in Acnologia. "Acnologia eventually went mad. Now, only a Black Dragon remains, devoid of humanity and fond of destruction. If you encounter Acnologia, try to help him find release."

Noah didn't agree, but instead asked, "Why don't you do it yourself? Can the mighty Earth Land Will not even erase an individual?"

Gothic Lolita pouted. "What do you think the Earth Land Will is? If I could control everything as I pleased, would my sister almost die because of the earth's split?"

Noah was speechless. If you can't do it, you can't. Just say so. Would I really make fun of you to your face?

...Of course, I'd make fun of you in my heart.

Dragons live for about a thousand years. Four hundred years have passed since the Dragons' extinction, which means Acnologia is still alive and well.

An existence that could wipe out the world's dominant race four hundred years ago, how terrifying would his strength be now, four hundred years later?

So Noah unhesitatingly refused Gothic Lolita.

Are you kidding? A monster raised by the Earth Land Will, why should an Edolas person like me have to deal with him?

Moreover, Acnologia's strength is still unknown. Even if I really confronted him, it's not certain who would 'release' whom.

You want me to work for you for free? That's absolutely impossible.

Unless...

Seeing Noah's indifferent expression, Gothic Lolita narrowed her eyes slightly, then showed a look of sudden realization.

[Ding ~ You have a new Wish commission]

[The Dragon Slayer youth eventually becomes an evil Dragon. The Earth Land Will hopes you can bring release to the Black Dragon.]

[Reward: 'Void Dragon Slayer Magic']

[Deadline: None]

The prompt from the 'Wish' magic made Noah's expression change. He looked at Gothic Lolita helplessly. "No, I just wanted to get some benefits from you before working. Why did you send me a commission first?"

Gothic Lolita twirled her umbrella, replying with a half-smile. "After all, you're a very lazy person. If I gave you the reward first, who knows how long you'd procrastinate before doing the work."

His little scheme to slack off exposed, Noah, without blushing or a racing heart, defended himself. "That's judging a gentleman by the heart of a villain. What kind of person do you take me, Noah, for?"

"A lazy person."

Gothic Lolita's definitive answer made Noah's momentum weaken, and for once, he looked a bit awkward.

Gothic Lolita waved her hand at Noah. "Alright, you should go now. My sister and I still have things to do."

With that, Gothic Lolita didn't care that Noah was still there and directly dragged the Lolita girl away. "Hehehe, my dear sister, let us embrace!"

"No... No, don't! I don't want to embrace!"

The Lolita girl looked at Noah as if he were a lifeline.

[Ding ~ You have a new Wish commission]

[The Edolas consciousness is unwilling to go back inside with the Earth Land Will. Please save her.]

[Reward... Error occurred, jumping to commission message]

[Earth Land Will: You brat, get out! Don't disturb me and my sister's intimacy!]

[Due to special circumstances, this Wish commission has been canceled]

Coming back to his senses, Noah found that the two girls had disappeared without a trace, and the vast Inner World seemed to be left with only him.

Being dragged away in your own territory by an external Earth Land Will, are you really that weak, Edolas Will?

Complaining aside, Noah knew the two girls were definitely still somewhere in the Inner World. He had already disturbed them once; disturbing their 'elegant pleasure' again would be impolite.

So Noah made a quick exit and left the Inner World.

Returning to the palace living room, Noah looked at the wall clock and found that less than five minutes had passed, while he had been in the Inner World for nearly half an hour.

It seems the flow of time in the Inner World is different from the real world.

If used for training, wouldn't it yield twice the results with half the effort?

Noah shook his head vigorously, shaking off that thought. He had actually been thinking about training just now. How could that be acceptable?

The dream of slacking off and being idle cannot be abandoned.
