Chapter 164: A Guild For The Sake Of A Single Person
[Box: Mages' Guild, Cait Shelter]
[Insert text: With the battle behind them, the Fairies take a well-earned break! The smiles we see are the fleeting rest they need to move on ahead...]
Lucy: Ahh!! So cute!!
Cherie: I assure you, mine is the cuter.
Wendy: The whole community here is part of the Guild. And fabric-working is something of a local speciality.
Lucy: Is this a style passed down among the Nirvit, then?

[Side text: Mashima's Ramblings (1): For working gamers like me, the 3rd of December was like a nightmare. Too many good games coming out! No time to play them all!]
Wendy: Come to think of it... I suppose...... maybe that's right?
Cherie: Of course... you weren't aware that the entire Guild was made up of the descendants of the Nirvit tribe.
Wendy: Yes, since I just happened to join the Guild from outside.
Lucy: Don't you want to try something on, Erza? You'd look great!
Erza: ! // Yes... // I suppose...
Cherie: Incidentally, Wendy, how long has Cait Shelter been a member of the Union of Guilds? // Though it feels a little wrong to say this... I had never actually heard the name before this mission began.
Lucy: Come to think of it, me either.
Wendy: Is that right? // Wow... our Guild really isn't very well-known, is it...

4
Charle: Not that I care, but... // Everyone's waiting for you.
Rorbaul: Fairy Tail. // Blue Pegasus. // Lamia Scale. // And you, Wendy and Charle. // Congratulations on defeating the Oración Seis and halting Nirvana. // As a representative of the local Union of Guilds, I, Rorbaul, offer you my thanks.

5
Rorbaul: Thank you. // Thank you ever so nabura.
Ichiya: You are most welcome!!!! Master Rorbaul!!!! // Ah, the conflict with the Oración Seis was just one fierce battle after another!!!! It was far from an easy task!!!! // Yet our bonds of comradeship ultimately led us to victory!!!
Hibiki/Eve/Ren: That's our Sensei!!
Gray: He just loves stealing the spotlight...
Lucy: Did he actually defeat anyone in the end...?
Cherie: Well, it's all over.
Jura: Both of you did excellently.
Leon: Jura-san...

6
Natsu: I think this calls for a party!!!!
Happy: Aye, sir~~~!!!!
Ichiya: Ichiya...
Hibiki/Eve/Ren: Ichiya...?!
Ichiya: ...the shining star!
Hibiki/Eve/Ren: Shining star!!!
Ichiya: Oh, yeah.
Hibiki/Eve/Ren/Ichiya: Hip hip, hooray! Hip hip, hooray!
Gray: A party, huh...?
Lucy: Stop stripping!! / ...You too.
Leon: Hahah...
Ichiya: Now, friends of Cait Shelter! Will you not join us~~?!
Ren/Eve/Hibiki: Hip hip, hooray!
Ichiya: Hip...

7
Hibiki/Eve/Ren: .........

8
Rorbaul: My friends... I must sincerely apologise to you all... // ...for concealing the truth of the Nirvit tribe.
Happy: You ruined the whole mood for that?
Natsu: Seriously, we don't mind. / Right, guys?
Wendy: I don't mind either, Master...
Rorbaul: Everyone... I ask that you listen carefully to what I am about to reveal. // First of all...... // We are not the descendants of the Nirvit tribe.

9
Rorbaul: We are the Nirvit tribe. // The man responsible for constructing Nirvana four hundred years ago... // ...was I.

10
Leon: What?!
Lucy: No way...
Happy: Four hundred...?!
Wendy: ......
Rorbaul: Four hundred years ago... in the hope of putting an end to the wars that ravaged the world, // I created the Magic of Reversal, Nirvana. // Nirvana became our home and nation, a symbol of peace for many long years. // But a great power will always find itself opposed by another. // For all the darkness that it had turned to light, Nirvana had taken more and more "darkness" upon itself.

11
Rorbaul: It is a matter of balance. / It was impossible to simply change people's natures from darkness to light. // Where darkness is born, so must be light... / ...and where light is born, so must be darkness.
Gray: Now that you mention it, that makes sense...
Rorbaul: The darkness that had been lost from the targets of Nirvana came to settle upon the Nirvit themselves.
Wendy: No...
Rorbaul: It was hell. // We fought amongst ourselves, almost to extinction.

12
Rorbaul: I was the only one to survive. // No... I suppose even that is no longer quite accurate. // Even my own body perished many years ago now. I remain as little more than a spirit. // In order to atone for the sin I committed... / And in order to find one with the power I have not, who might destroy Nirvana in my stead... // I have watched over this place for four hundred years.

13
Rorbaul: Now... my task is finally over.
Wendy: Th... That's just...

14
Wendy: Magna!! Pepel!! What is this...?! Why are you...?!
Charle: Everyone...!!!
Hibiki: What's going on here?! They're all vanishing!!
Wendy: No...!!! You can't... // You can't just disappear...!!!
Rorbaul: I must apologise for deceiving you all this time. // Wendy. // All the members of this Guild... // ...were but an illusion that I created.

15
Natsu: Whaaaat?!!
Leon: Illusions with their own personalities?
Jura: Such frightful magical power...!!
Rorbaul: In order to watch over Nirvana, I lived alone in this abandoned village. // Seven years ago, a boy appeared before me.
Flashback!Gérard: Please, take care of this girl...
Rorbaul: Taken aback by his clear and earnest gaze, I could not help but agree. // Even though I had sworn to lead a solitary life......

16
[Side text: Mashima's Ramblings (2): To think that a thing like that would happen in Terminator 4... It really gave me goosebumps.]
Flashback!Wendy: Old man... Where... am I...?
Flashback!Rorbaul: Wh... Where are you......?
Flashback!Wendy: Gérard... said he was going to take me to a Guild...
Flashback!Rorbaul: Th... This is a Guild!! // A wonderful Guild of mages!!!
Flashback!Wendy: Really?!
Flashback!Rorbaul: Step out of here and take a look around. // Everyone is waiting to meet you.
Rorbaul: And so I created a Guild of illusionary companions.

17
Lucy: An entire Guild, created for Wendy's sake...!
Wendy: No!! I don't want to hear this...!!! // Busk... Naoki... you can't all disappear!!!!
Rorbaul: Wendy... Charle... you no longer have any need of illusory companions. // You have found yourselves true companions now.

18
Rorbaul: Your future awaits you... it is only just beginning.
Wendy: MASTER~~~~~!!!!
Rorbaul: Everyone... thank you so much. // Please, take good care of Wendy and Charle.

19
Wendy: MASTER~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~!!!!
Erza: It is always sad to part with those whom you love...... // But your companions will help you bear that sadness.

20
Erza: Come with us. // To Fairy Tail.
[Insert text: With meetings and partings occurring in succession, it is by using the bonds you have as a stepping stone that you can reach a new start, a new tomorrow...]
