Chapter 173 - Fireball
7: Look!!
8: She even has the same body as me!!
9: Daaaaahhh!!! Don't go outside looking like thaaaat!!!!!
10: The story thus far
FT was sucked into another world called "Edoras!!" Here, magic power is running dry, so Edoras decided to absorb more from another world. In order to save his friends, Natsu charged into Edoras!! And it truly was a strange world. FT existed here too, but all of his friends were like completely different people. Receiving help from Edoras's "Scary" Lucy, they head toward the Royal City in order to save their allies!!

03)
1: EdoLucy-san!! Natsu-san's here!!!
2: Like I care about that.
3: I do!!
4: The Doublucies sure are lively.
5: Do you...think you just said something clever now?
6: What, Natsu, you wanna see?
7: Stoooooo!!!
8: Pu
9(2b): Wh...what's so funny? I get it...you just barely managed to keep in some comment about how EdoLucy has a better body than mine or something?
10: Don't take a bath with yourself!
11: Now that he mentions it!!!

04)
1: Really, though, there's no way to tell you apart.
2: To think our butts would even be the same shape.
3: Don't say stuff like that!!!
4: You can do a mirror mimicry skit!!
5: I'm not doing that!!!
6: Ahhh...even their breath is the same.
7: It's quite sad.
8: You...don't you have some kind of spirit that can change your hair?
9: Yeah...Cancer?
10: Is this to your liking-ebi?
11(2b): Yep! This'll fix all the confusion.

05)
1: You sure it's alright?
2: Hm? Is there some custom about treasuring one's hair in Earthland?
3: Well...I think all girls are like that-ebi!
4: Girls, huh?
5: In this world, it's gonna become ridiculous to think of things in terms of men and women.
6: We're all desperate just to survive, you know.
7: But everyone in this Guild looks like they're enjoying themselves.
8: Of course they do. If you don't manage to make a smile somehow, your heart will break in a snap.
9: Also, there are people in this world who need us.
10: That's why...even if we fall into darkness, we are a Guild, and will continue.

06)
1: But...just that alone isn't enough.
2: Eh?
3: Nah...nothing.
4: I can't believe this!!!
5: What is thiiiiis?!?!
6: You're really wound up this early.
7: What's wrong?
8: The Edoras me ran away!!!

07)
1: The Royal City is a three days' walk to the east. I'm going back to the Guild. See ya, good luck!
2(2b): I thought she was going to help us?! Arrrrggh!! What kind of nerve does she have?!
3: She's just like Lucy.
4: Shut up!!!!
5: There's no helping it...she did say that she was never intending to fight.
6: Yup.
7: Well I won't forgive her!!! As the same person, I can't!!!
8: Who cares?
9: I care!! Grrrrr!
10: Let's head out, then.
11: Aye sir!
12: They might be able to change the world?
13: How can I be thinking of something so naive...

08)
1(2b): If one really wants to change the world...they have to do it by their own hands!!!!
2: If they can rescue their friends with their own power, that's fine...
3: But taking on the Kingdom will be difficult.
4: That's why I have to try and convince everyone in the Guild!!!!
5: Everyone...please rise and heed my call!!! So that we can fight together!!!!

3: Aren't you all interested in learning a little about this world?
4: Nope.

13: What's going to happen to everyone?!
14: Once the extraction begins,
15: we'll never...be able to return them to their original forms again.

12)
1: How about stealing that ship?
2: Normally it's "sneak on to that ship," isn't it?
