By the afternoon
The boat had finally reached Magnolia Town, landing on the beach behind the Fairy Tail Guild.
Everyone was warmly welcomed by the guild members, who had been waiting there in advance.
Makarov had even set up a number of tents nearby so everyone could rest and recover from the trip.
Later, Renzo handed over a list of talented kids he had personally selected to Makarov, asking him to confirm and recruit them himself.
"B-Brother? Is that really you?!"
In the crowd of Fairy Tail members, little Kagura suddenly spotted Simon. Her eyes welled up, and tears streamed down her cheeks as she rushed toward him, calling out emotionally.
"Kagura?"
Simon froze for a second when he saw her.
"Go on! That's her! She's been looking for you all this time and has been through a lot because of it."
Renzo nudged Simon forward with a grin.
Yes, Simon was Kagura's long-lost brother—the one she'd been searching for all this time.
"Kagura!!"
"Big brother!!"
In the next moment, Simon couldn't hold back anymore. He dashed toward her, and the two siblings hugged tightly, crying tears of joy.
A reunion with family after such a long time... it's always a touching scene.
"I remember that kid!"
At Renzo's side, Erza's eyes widened slightly as she looked at Kagura, her memories surfacing.
She remembered now—it was because she tried to protect Kagura and lured away the dark cult members that she ended up getting captured back then.
"She's Simon's sister? Wow… what a twist! But honestly, I'm glad. Hehe."
Erza let out a soft laugh, looking relieved.

Once everything had been sorted out, Renzo quietly sent a message to Ur and Ultear, summoning them down to the training arena located on the first floor of his massive underground base beneath his estate.
"You called us back all secretive like this—what's going on, Renzo?"
Ur crossed her arms, clearly curious.
"You'll see."
Renzo smirked and activated his Eternal Mangekyo Eye, then opened up a spatial rift. From the domain of Takamagahara, he pulled someone out—Brain.
"Huh?"
"Brain! It's him!!"
"That bastard! I'd recognize that piece of trash even if he was turned to dust!!"
The moment the mother and daughter laid eyes on him, their expressions darkened. Their eyes filled with killing intent, and they looked like they were ready to tear him apart right then and there.
"Where did you find him?!"
Ur fought to stay calm and turned to Renzo.
"There wasn't even a hint of him this morning. Don't tell me…"
She and Ultear exchanged glances as a sudden thought hit them.
"The Tower of Heaven?"
"Bingo." Renzo nodded. "I ran into him at the Tower of Heaven."
"My guess is that Hades sent him there on some mission."
He turned toward Ultear and added, "Actually, it was probably a mission meant for you—if we hadn't saved you back then."
"Hades, huh…"
Ur and Ultear both froze, then quickly understood.
If Hades was behind it, then Brain showing up at the Tower made perfect sense.
"Don't worry, I've already sealed his magic."
"He's all yours now. Just make sure he doesn't die too quickly."
With that, Renzo left with a casual wave, leaving Ur and Ultear to turn slowly toward Brain.
Brain: "Uhhh... long time no see? Ur? Ultear? How about we sit down, talk this out like civilized people and—"
BANG!!!
"Die, you scumbag!!!"
"That's for the lies you fed my mom!"
BOOM!!
"And that's for the pain I went through on day one of those godforsaken experiments!!"
"AAAHHH!! STOOOOP!!!"
BAM! BAM! BAM!
...
Outside the training arena, Renzo leaned against the wall, listening to Brain's howls echoing from inside.
He just smiled quietly.

Meanwhile, over the sea—high above the place where the Tower of Heaven used to be—a black magic airship had arrived.
Standing aboard, Hades stared down at the spot where the tower had once stood, now completely gone. His expression was so dark it looked like it could rain.
"That damn kid again?! Why do you always have to go against me?! I've already withdrawn from the northern kingdom, and you still chased me down here?!"
"I swear, this isn't over! Just you wait!!"

In the Consciousness Space—
"Yo, Hermione! You're here?"
As Fairytail Renzo stepped into the shared mindspace, he spotted Hermione and casually waved.
"Come give me a hand! I've finally finished analyzing an Ice Sub-Dragon's blood. Should be more than enough material for you to dig into for a while."
"Oh? Finally done?" Hermione's eyes lit up. She quickly reached out and bumped hands with Renzo, instantly syncing their knowledge.
"Wait, huh?" Fairytail Renzo blinked. That's when he noticed three unfamiliar faces standing nearby.
"New arrivals? Three at once?" he asked, raising an eyebrow. "Damn, it's been a while since we had a batch this big show up outta nowhere. So—who are you guys?"
Newcomer One: "I'm the personal disciple of the Old Heavenly Master, Rō Tenshi—last student of Tenshifu!"
Newcomer Two: "I am the future Sultan of the Ottoman Empire!"
Newcomer Three: "Ahem! I'm Earth's richest man… well, in the future, when I get the West City's Capsule Corporation. And yeah, I'm Bulma's boyfriend."
"..."
"....."
"....."
Outcast Renzo: "…The hell?"
Ottoman Renzo: "Crap!"
Fairy Tail Renzo: "Okay, damn! Respect, bro! You actually said all that shameless stuff with a straight face. That's a talent in itself."
"No kidding." Hermione rolled her eyes, then waved them off.
"Anyway, I've got stuff to work on. I'll leave these three to you. Give them the rundown, help them settle in, and maybe teach them not to embarrass themselves too hard. Peace!"
And with that, Hermione peaced out, leaving Fairytail Renzo awkwardly alone with the trio.
"…Weird. No one else logged in around this time? That's rare."
He turned to the newcomers. "Alright, fellas. Let's do the thing."
He bumped fists with each of them, instantly transferring some core memories and basic power access.
Strangely enough, Hermione hadn't synced with them when they first arrived. Was she just straight-up ignoring them?
Turns out—yeah, kind of.
Fairytail Renzo rifled through his newly-shared memories and got the full story: these three had just shown up not long ago, and immediately started trying to impress Hermione—way too hard. One even offered her marriage.
No wonder she looked at them like they were three walking piles of garbage.
"Crap…"
"Damn…"
"Wait, that Hermione was one of us!?"
"Yikes!"
"Ughh... just kill me."
All three of them were stunned.
Thinking back to what they'd said and done… Yeah. No wonder she looked at them like she'd just stepped in something.
"Seriously, you guys…" Fairytail Renzo sighed, rubbing his temples. "Especially you, Ottoman guy. Could you try acting like a real prince?"
Ottoman Renzo just shrugged.
"By the way, are you sure you should be calling yourself the future Sultan already? You're just an Ottoman prince right now, right? You don't have any real power yet."
Ottoman Renzo didn't flinch. "Why not? I've just been lying low, building my strength. That's what kings do before they make their move."
"I've already made connections—military officers, some ministers, and a bunch of promising young talents. And the whole setup is just like Magnificent Century, you know? My mother's Hürrem, I'm her oldest son, and from the day I was born, she's been building her power to make me Sultan. I just need to step in at the right moment."
"Come on. We're all transmigrators here. You know how the game works. Control the military and the ministers, and you control the Empire. Once I lock that down, I'll be untouchable."
"And most of my brothers are good people—it's not like we'll kill each other over the throne. It's for the best. Besides, I'm the BEST!"

Back in his world…
He'd also decided to train his body and build up strength along the way. After all, his version of Magnificent Century wasn't some peaceful court drama—it was the brutal, chaotic world of the Ottoman Empire. If he wasn't strong, he wouldn't even sleep well at night.
And it was about time he joined the wars like his father and older brother. One small misstep could get him killed—and plenty of people who supported his other brothers wanted him dead anyway.
But now?
Now that his cheat had fully activated—and it was ridiculously powerful—he was ready to flip the table.
Forget the old plans. With this kind of firepower, he'd just talk to his father, seize the throne, and kick off his conquest.
Yeah, he wanted to conquer the world now. He was going to rewrite history.
Sure, the Empire still needed a few years to grow. But with the [Fantasy Creation] skill, he could create high-yield crops, develop advanced technology, and turbocharge the empire's progress. No more slow burn—it was time to ignite.
His new plan?
Three years to strengthen the Empire.
Two years to wipe out all his enemies.
And ten years to conquer the entire world.
Maybe that was a bit slow, considering his current power, but he didn't want people to resist the idea. He didn't want bloodshed for the sake of it. In fact, he was already thinking about changing the name of the empire altogether.
He wanted a peaceful world—even after he was gone. No more wars. Ever again.
So maybe he'd call it something like the Earth Alliance and create an A.I. to make all the decisions.
Humans? He couldn't trust them not to screw everything up again.
Either way— He was going to be the man of history.
