The truth is that the ... Ross knew that Jellal would not be lost in the crowd. Jellal was very talented and would definitely have a place in the magic world no matter what magic he learned.

Of course, it was normal for Ross to suspect Jellal now. No matter how you looked at it, he was the most suspicious. To do these things without telling the Council, it was not just any person from a dark guild. Someone had to help cover it up.

Urutia was a little puzzled by Ross's name for the Tower of Paradise and asked, "Should this be called the R system?"

Ross nodded and said, "It doesn't matter whether it's the "Tower of Paradise" or the R system. The key is the function."

"R system, REVIVE SYSTEM, restoration system."

"Resurrecting a dead person with many living sacrifices is a taboo magic that violates humanity. "

Rose looked at Erza and Kagura who had not yet arrived on the island, but he was not in a hurry. After carefully considering his words, he explained:

"About 400 years ago, there appeared a gifted and talented wizard, known as the Black Wizard Zeref. I don't know whether it was an experiment or for some purpose, he designed a magic that could revive the dead, which is the R system."

"Then about ten years ago, a group of magic cults that believed in black magic got this design from somewhere, invested a lot of financial, human and material resources, and built R systems in many remote locations in Ishgar."

"In X774, I destroyed one, and after returning, I reported it to the Council. The Council and the major guilds destroyed all R systems and purged most of the members of the black magic cult."

"The matter should have ended here, but I didn't expect that another "Tower of Paradise" was secretly built."

"And it looks like it should have been completed, or about to be completed. "

After Ross finally finished speaking, Lucy asked, "Why do you say it's about to be completed?"

"In addition to sacrifices, a large amount of magic power is needed to revive the dead. The amount of magic power required is very huge."

Urutia frowned and said, "So, the people who built the R system must have a very powerful force behind them."

She didn't want to see this situation. It involved a black magician and a huge amount of magic power. It must be no good. She was a little worried about the safety of Erza and Kagura.

Urutia continued, "The only people who have this ability on the Ishgar Continent are one of the three dark guilds of the Balamu Alliance, or... a problem within the Council."

Lucy had an ideological struggle in her mind. After weighing the two, she said, "In comparison, I would rather think that it was done by the Balamu Alliance..."

In her opinion, if there was a problem within the Council, the magic world would easily be in turmoil.

"Go to the island. "Wendy kept an eye on Erza and Kagura on the screen. When the two of them landed on the island, Wendy whispered to everyone.

She still remembered what Rose said about someone watching them, so she deliberately lowered her voice.

Actually... no need... because Gray and Natsu were still arguing...

"Welcome, welcome, Erza Belserion, Kagura Mikazuki."

It seemed that they were keeping a close eye on Kagura and Erza's whereabouts. The moment the two of them landed on the island, the long-haired wizard clapped his hands and appeared in front of them.

"Where's Simon."

Kagura held [Fearless] tightly and glared at the man in front of her.

"Don't be angry, don't be angry, please look." The wizard waved his hand, then took out a crystal ball, and the figures of Simon and his friends appeared in the crystal ball.

"Let Simon go!"

"We will release them. Of course, you two have to cooperate with us."

"Wait a minute, how can I be sure that you are not lying to us?"

Eluza stopped Kagura who was about to get angry and asked the wizard in front of her.

Simon and the others in the picture were tied to a wooden frame and unconscious.

The wizard looked at Erza and nodded approvingly, praising Erza: "Very good, very good, a clear mind, please wait."

In fact, Kagura usually doesn't look like this. During the mission, she sometimes thinks more than Erza, but when it comes to Simon, it is inevitable that she will be confused due to concern.

But there is also the factor that Erza is calmer at critical moments. Erza usually does tasks casually, but she is a more trustworthy teammate at critical moments. This is one of the reasons why Ross is relieved to let the two go to the island.

Under the order of the wizard, the guards who were guarding Simon woke up Simon and the others, but the means were relatively rough, and they woke them up with water.

Simon, who was awakened by the water, shook his head, and raised his head after being reminded by the guard.

"Kagura, Erza..." Simon couldn't believe it, closed his eyes and then opened them again to confirm.

"Simon! Are you okay?"

After hearing the voices of the two, Simon confirmed that Kagura and Erza were on the other side of the crystal ball.

"I'm fine, you guys go quickly, don't worry about me! It's dangerous here!" Simon shouted with all his strength.

These days they have been bound like this, put on magic shackles, and given some drinks and liquid food. He has tried his best to shout.

The friends with Simon are all people who have participated in the construction of the Paradise Tower. They know the horror of the Paradise Tower better than anyone else. They also thought that they might have dragged Simon down, and they felt a little sorry.

"Simon! We!"

Erza and Kagura were still thinking about what to say, but the connection between the magic communication crystal ball had been cut off.

"You!" Kagura's chest kept rising and falling, breathing hard, and now she was full of anger.

If Erza hadn't held her arm tightly, she would have taken action.

He didn't care about Kagura's performance at all, but said with a smile:

"So, have you two confirmed it?"

"Now it's our turn to make the conditions."
