The Protoss's reaction did not change the Protoss King's expression. He pondered for a moment, and finally looked at Moen standing to the side.
"Child of the Stars, are you also willing to help the Leo Celestial? Do you also believe he can return to the Celestial Realm?"
The Celestial Spirit King's question seemed a bit abrupt, but his gaze, and the title "Child of the Stars," were clearly directed at Moen; he was earnestly seeking Moen's opinion.
Although Moen was somewhat dissatisfied with the title "Son of the Stars," preferring "Lord of the Stars"—which made him feel inexplicably inferior—he still nodded and replied, "Of course, I'm definitely willing to help him."
No one was surprised by Moen's answer, after all, Moen was the first person to help Leo, the "Leo Celestial," so that he could stay in "Aislandon" for a long time instead of disappearing.
"Alright, let's do it this way. From now on, cancel the banishment of Leo Celestial Spirit Leo and allow him to return to the Celestial Realm."
After Moen spoke, the Celestial King didn't waste any more time and announced the result directly, which excited Lucy, Emerald, and Leo.
Of course, they were also surprised that the Celestial King wanted to ask Moen for his opinion, especially since it seemed quite important.
"Leo, the Leo celestial spirit, don't make that mistake again. If you do, you won't be let off easily. Do you understand?"
After lifting the banishment from "Leo Celestial Spirit" Leo, the Celestial Spirit King solemnly warned Leo that this was an exception to the law, but if there was a next time, he would never let Leo off easily.
"I see."
Leo was the most excited. He never thought he would actually be able to return to the Protoss Realm. He never thought that Lucy and Emerald could actually do it and actually persuade the Protoss King!
Of course, Leo was most grateful to Moen, who had been providing him with magic. In fact, Leo was also very puzzled as to why the Celestial Spirit King would specifically seek Moen's opinion. Could it be that he thought Leo had become Moen's pet?
The Celestial Spirit King ignored Leo and glanced back and forth between Moen, Lucy, and Emerald. Finally, he waved his hand, and a golden key appeared in front of Lucy.
"This is... the key to the Leo celestial spirit!"
After seeing the constellation pattern on the golden key, Lucy exclaimed in surprise. She looked at the Celestial Spirit King and then at Leo.
The Celestial Spirit King nodded, and said solemnly, "Leo, treat your new contractor well."
Clearly, the Celestial King had made the decision directly, entrusting the "Leo Celestial" to Lucy, the daughter of his old friend.
"I will, Lucy. Let me reintroduce myself. I am Leo, the Leo Celestial Spirit. It will be nice to meet you in the future."
Leo did not refuse. He looked at Lucy with a serious expression and solemnly declared that he would continue to fight as Lucy's Celestial Spirit, fighting for Lucy and for Fairy Tail.
Although he only spent three years in Fairy Tail, Leo made many memories and friends in the guild. He loved his life in Fairy Tail. Going to Moen for help was definitely the best decision he ever made, without a doubt.
Lucy glanced at Emerald, who smiled and nodded at her, showing no dissatisfaction with the ownership of the "Leo Celestial Spirit." This was something Lucy had spearheaded from the start; she was just there to help and naturally had no designs on the "Leo Celestial Spirit."
Lucy looked at Moen again, and her master smiled and nodded at her, indicating that she should quickly sign a contract with Leo.
"Alright, Leo, let's make a contract!"
Without further hesitation, Lucy immediately and energetically agreed to sign a contract with Leo. She was actually very happy to obtain the key to the "Leo Celestial Spirit," which would allow Leo to continue staying in "Fairy Tail" instead of being separated from everyone.
Leo didn't hesitate and completed the contract signing, officially becoming Lucy's Celestial Spirit and continuing to stay in Fairy Tail.
"Go back, everyone."
Seeing that Leo and Lucy had successfully signed the contract, the Celestial Spirit King waved his hand, and all the Celestial Spirits disappeared. His own figure also began to fade, gradually turning into specks of light, and was about to disappear.
"Wait a minute! Celestial Spirit King! Although Leo's problem has been perfectly solved, you haven't answered my previous question yet!"
Seeing that the Celestial Spirit King was about to leave, Lucy quickly called him back. There was nothing she could do; solving Leo's problem was only a temporary fix, not a cure for the root cause of the problem.
"What should we do if other Protoss encounter this situation again? If we all use Leo's method, it will harm both the Protoss and their contractors, and might even lead to a tragedy like this!"
Lucy rattled off her thoughts like a machine gun, afraid of missing an opportunity, afraid that the Celestial Spirit King would disappear before she could finish speaking.
"6
'
The Celestial Spirit King's body solidified again, his eyes fixed on Lucy, as if trying to see into the child's heart.
What the Celestial Spirit King saw was only a sincere person who was eager to solve the problems of the Celestial Spirits, genuinely concerned for their safety, and without any selfish motives.
Getting entangled in this matter would not benefit Lucy at all, and might even annoy him, the Celestial Spirit King, but Lucy did it anyway, without hesitation.
"Alright, daughter of an old friend, if any more cases of Protoss being abused occur in the future, just let me know, and I will definitely stand up for them. I will protect them, terminate the contract directly, and ensure that the human can never be a Protoss Mage again."
Looking at the incredibly sincere Lucy, the Celestial Spirit King made a promise. The punishment he mentioned was indeed quite severe, essentially stripping the Celestial Spirit Mage of his abilities, preventing him from ever summoning Celestial Spirits again.
"Very good!!!"
Lucy cheered. She felt there was nothing wrong with this punishment. It was true that mages who abused Celestial Spirits like Kallen Lilica did not deserve to die, but once they did such a thing, they should never be allowed to continue as "Celestial Spirit Mages" again!
"This Star Spirit King does listen to advice."
Moen offered his comments on the current outcome.
This Celestial King isn't exactly a tyrannical ruler. He's quite obedient, and his previous behavior likely shows that he genuinely doesn't care about these trivial matters.
Or perhaps he's simply too lazy to get involved. Communicating and getting along with contractors is the Protoss's own business, what does it have to do with him, the Protoss King? Does he have to interfere if they don't handle their relationships with contractors properly?
But now, because of Lucy's suggestion, he decided to take action. At least he had to take care of those Protoss who had been bullied and abused by their contractors, even if it was just to uphold the legitimacy and justice of the Protoss Contract and to prevent the "Leo Protoss" incident from happening again.
"Leo, I'm leaving this to you. If any Protoss encounters a similar problem in the future, have them register it with you, and then you report it to me. I'll handle the problem."
Although he had decided to take charge of this matter, the Star Spirit King still wanted to slack off. He would only handle the problem-solving, leaving the registration and verification to his subordinates. He didn't want to waste time on those trivial matters.
"Yes! I understand, I will definitely fulfill my duties!"
Leo was naturally very happy about the appointment. He was a kind-hearted person who liked to stand up for others.
Otherwise, Aries's fate has nothing to do with him, and Karen Lilika wouldn't dare to mistreat him, so why would he bother?
Meddling in other people's business? In the end, it almost got him killed.
But Leo, the "Leo Celestial Spirit," has a strong sense of justice in his heart. He just wants to take charge and speak up for others!
The task the Celestial Spirit King gave him was exactly what he wanted. Leo was overjoyed. He vowed in his heart that he would never let a single abuser go unpunished! He would never let a Celestial Spirit experience such a thing again!
"See you again someday, daughter of an old friend, daughter of the stars."
Seeing that the matter was perfectly resolved, the Celestial King's voice came, bidding farewell to Lucy and Moen. Although he didn't say much to Moen, it was clear that he cared a lot about Moen's existence.
There's no way around it; after all, Moen is the founder of "new-style Protoss magic," and is the "Child of the Stars," even more favored by the stars than the Protoss themselves. It would be strange if the Protoss King didn't care.
He didn't initiate a conversation with Moen when he first appeared; in fact, he was observing and guessing, trying to determine Moen's stance on today's events and what special purpose he might have.
It seems that Moen has no ill intentions towards the Protoss, nor does he intend to use them. Otherwise, he would not have been so indifferent to the "Leo Protoss," the head of the "Zodiac."
The Celestial King was quite satisfied with the current situation. He did not want to ruin the relationship but wanted to maintain it. Therefore, he did not break the ice but instead conveyed goodwill to Moen, hoping that Moen could get along harmoniously with the Celestials.
Most importantly, he can't attack Moen in the current situation; coming to the mortal world isn't that simple.
Currently, only Lucy can summon him, but given Lucy's relationship with Moen, it's clear that this daughter of an old friend will not support him in fighting Moen.
Even the Protoss who can be summoned to "Aislandon" are no match for Morn. Apart from showing goodwill, the Protoss King has no other choice. As Protoss, they don't really have any way to deal with Morn.
"Farewell, Celestial Spirit King!"
Lucy happily bid farewell to the Celestial Spirit King. She had achieved all her goals, gained the "Leo Celestial Spirit," and left Leo at "Fairy Tail." It was a great success, a perfect ending that she had never imagined at the beginning!
At first, Lucy's best-case scenario was simply to successfully send Leo back to the Celestial Spirit World so that he could go home.
Of course, this meeting with the Celestial Spirit King allowed her to learn more about her mother, which made Lucy very happy. After all, her mother had passed away early, and Lucy didn't know many things about her mother. Her father wouldn't tell her either, because recalling those things would make him very sad.
"Rest assured, Celestial King, I will not do anything excessive, and I have no hostility towards you Celestials."
Just as the Celestial King was about to disappear completely, Moen spoke with a smile. He spoke quite frankly, which was also meant to reassure the Celestial King who had been cautiously probing him.
The Celestial King's figure transformed into countless specks of light and vanished completely. He seemed to nod one last time, responding to Moen's words.
Moen also gained a lot from this meeting. This Celestial King is indeed not worth worrying about. Although this guy is extremely strong, his inability to come to "Aislandon" is a major drawback. No matter how strong he is, he cannot unleash his full potential, so his strength is as good as nothing and he is not worth worrying about at all.
Of course, there's no need to deliberately offend this guy. Since the Celestial King is willing to get along peacefully, Moen has no objections.
After all, given the relationship between Celestial Spirit King and Lucy, this guy can also be used as Lucy's trump card. If all else fails, Lucy can directly summon this Celestial Spirit King to appear, which can probably eliminate most of the enemies. This is equivalent to giving Fairy Tail an extra trump card.
Anyway, Lucy will definitely always be in "Fairy Tail". Everything about her, her family, her life, her relationships, etc., is basically tied to "Fairy Tail".
"Great, things are over perfectly."
Makarov, who had been largely ignored, finally spoke up. There was nothing he could do; the Celestial King had completely disregarded him, and since he was just an observer, there was no need for him to interrupt.
"It was easier than I imagined."
Moen echoed the old man's words, who had been extremely worried before, but now he was finally relieved.
"This Celestial Spirit King is quite sensible. Although he is very large, I am not without the power to fight him after I transform into a giant."
Grandpa Makarov was babbling incoherently, showing that he was truly relaxed and could even joke about the matter. He had been on edge the whole time when the Celestial Spirit King was around, ready to transform into a giant and fight that behemoth at any moment.
I think he's not as good as you.
Moen, with a smile, continued to flatter the old man, which made Makarov roll his eyes. He wasn't stupid; the Celestial Spirit King's magic power was so strong that he couldn't even enter "Aislandon." How could he possibly be a match for him? The difference in magical power was too great. He was, after all, just a human, and not even the strongest among humans. He shouldn't even think about challenging the Celestial Spirit King.
Even if Lucy summons the Celestial Spirit King, which might limit the Celestial Spirit King's power, it's probably still beyond his ability to handle.
"He seems a little afraid of things going wrong with you? Is it just my imagination?"
Makarov stopped joking and asked with some doubt, as Moen's last words seemed to confirm his feeling.
"That's right, he can't do anything to me, but I can influence these Protoss, or even force them to be summoned. Given this situation, he definitely doesn't want to have a conflict with me."
Moen didn't hide anything from the old man and explained why the Protoss King had this attitude: his existence was truly special. To the Protoss, it was as if another king had appeared above them, a king who could influence them in the world of "Aislandon".
"You did the right thing; there was no need to antagonize them."
After Moen explained, Mr. Makarov expressed his support for his actions.
Furthermore, the Celestials are not evil beings, so there's really no need to target them. The true determinants of good and evil are the Mages.
