"The Kingdom of Fiore..." "A neutral country of 17 million people." "It is a world of magic." "Magic is bought and sold there every day." "It is an integral part of people's lives." "And there are those who use magic as their occupation." "Those people are referred to as wizards." "The wizards belong to various guilds and perform jobs on commission." "There are a large number of guilds within the country." "And in a certain city there lies a certain guild." "will continue to be born long into the future..." "And its name is:" "Fairy Tail!" "Last time on Fairy Tail!" "000 jewel." "Intruder spotted!" "You're so annoying!" "I won't give you the book!" "I can't believe that Daybreak contained this sort of secret!" "I'm all revved up!" "What the heck kind of wizard is he?" "I can see fairies..." "What a mess." "Guess I should go find Lucy." "anyway?" "...we're mercenaries." "An enemy of literature?" "myself and I?" "Anyone who's happy to have a collection of those freakish maids isn't cultured!" "There is nothing to mock of my beautiful blond maids!" "A treasure map?" "A spot to hide valuables?" "What kind of secret does this book hold?" "Tell me!" "Tell me or I'll snap your arms in two!" "This girly doesn't get her situation!" "I got Kemu Zaleon himself to write that book for me!" "Therefore any secret in that book is mine!" "Happy!" "Nice one!" "Cool!" "you..." "What's with this cat?" "I'm Happy." "get up here." "The water feels nice." "it's sewage water." "Dear Kaby!" "The tables have turned!" "I'll consider forgiving you." "though." "and nobody gets confused}" "For a bookworm you sure misuse language!" "The tables have turned" implies that you have the upper hand!" "But having one extra cat on your side isn't going to be able to defeat my Diver magic!" "So that was magic?" "And that means Everlue is also a wizard?" "you smell." "It's written in this book!" "Everlue!" "What's with that?" "It's wonderful that I'm the main character." "But the story is crap!" "to write such rubbish!" "It's a disgrace!" "You forced him to write it!" "How conceited can you get?" "Conceited?" "I am a great man!" "It is an honor for someone to labor to write my book!" "You blackmailed him to write it!" "Blackmail?" "What about it?" "{Everlue considers it his right to blackmail the people he rules over}" "It was his own fault for refusing me in the first place!" "What do you mean?" "but that idiot refused!" "So I told him:" "or I'll revoke the citizenship for your entire family!" "they wouldn't be able to join the merchant of craftsman guilds!" "Is the Count really that powerful?" "I'm a great man!" "And in the end he wrote it!" "so I made him write it in prison!" "he said!" "{edit: slight interpretation difference." "Everlue is Mashima's example of how bad autocrats can become}" "A master craftsman!" But I broke that pride and haughty attitude of his!" "{edit: changed to match above}" "How dare you do such things just to satisfy your own desires!" "You put him in solitary confinement for three years!" "Do you have any idea what he must have felt?" "For three years?" "Perhaps he finally noticed how great I truly am?" "No!" "He was fighting that pride of yours!" "his family would be in trouble." "to write a book with you as the main character!" "you pest?" "It's all written in this book!" "Huh?" "I read that book as well." "Kemu Zaleon never appears in it." "it's a work that'd make any fan cry!" "But you should know that Kemu Zaleon was originally a wizard!" "He couldn't have... and cast a spell on this book." "it'd turn into a book defaming me?" "H-How rude!" "have you?" "It's true that this book contains everything about how it was written!" "But the words that Kemu Zaleon left in this book were nothing so petty as that!" "The real secret is something else!" "what?" "The real secret?" "That's why I'm not going to let you have this book." "you never had a right to it in the first place!" "I open thee!" "Cancer!" "Cancer!" "It's a crab!" "[Note: "Kani" means crab in Japanese]" "Make sure to end all your sentences with "-kani"!" "You got to do it!" "You're a crab after all!" "Just trust me!" "Say you promise!" "but this wording covers both bases.}" "he'll pinch your paws." "how would you like your hair done today -ebi?" "[Note: "Ebi" means shrimp in Japanese]" "Ebi?" "!" "please?" "We're in a battle!" "Beat up that bald old man!" "Okay-ebi." "it turned out to be a hook." "You can go home now." "How about you go home?" "The real secret?" "Could it be he wrote down the illegal underbelly of my various business enterprises?" "{edit:" "I don't think that "hidden underbelly" conveys graft as directly as the subtitles need.}" "I can't have that..." "If she hands it over to the Council's inspection wizards... {is this a consistency thing?" "is this group important later?" "}" "That'd be the end of me!" "I open thee!" "Virgo!" "The same kind of magic as Lucy!" "Master?" "get that book!" "No way!" "She's a Celestial Spirit?" "Ebi." "What?" "Natsu!" "Why is he with Virgo?" "How'd you..." "I went to get her and..." "I don't have a clue!" "right?" "Lobby right?" "Spirit World" "Sewers" "That's unbelievable!" "what should I do?" "Do something about him!" "exterminate these pests!" "Understood!" "I'll blow you away!" "Roar of the Fire Dragon!" "You pervy mole!" "You can't run away digging any more holes!" "A bit-part in a novel..." "Ebi." "...is more than you deserve!" "what do you think of this look-ebi?" "Crab!" "ebi?" "Lucy!" "You did us Fairy Tail wizards proud." "Aye!" "But we ended up destroying things again." "Is this my fault?" "And then..." "The composition and style of this book is just awful." "There was no way I could image it having been written by Kemu Zaleon." "So?" "So that's why I thought there was some secret." "What is the meaning of this?" "I am quite sure I requested that you destroy it." "Mr. Kaby." "Then I will eliminate it!" "I don't even want to look at it!" "they had already left by the time he said that line." "Lucy didn't hear him.}" "It's to protect your father's honor." "aren't you?" "Why do you know that?" "Have you read this book?" "No." "I couldn't bring myself to read it." "It's trash." "My father said so." "So that's why you wanted to burn it?" "That's right." "Burn it just cause it's dumb?" "man?" "!" "Your dad wrote that book!" "Natsu wait!" "It's to protect his honor." "Correct." "I'm ashamed that my father wrote Daybreak." "31 years ago..." "Father!" "Sorry I'm late." "You didn't contact us for three years!" "Where in the world were you writing?" "I'm through." "I quit being an author." "What..." "I'm never writing another book!" "And then..." "You're a fool." "Didn't I tell you three years ago?" "I told you that you'd regret taking that commission for such a worthless book!" "The money was good." "How could you?" "I finished that incredible piece of rubbish." "Why are you smiling?" "Thanks to that tripe you neglected your family for three years!" "I was always thinking of you." "Then why didn't you write something decent and come straight home?" "You abandoned your pride as an author and your family!" "You were correct to quit being an author." "Someone with no pride like you isn't fit to be one." "Or a father." "My father died soon afterward." "And I've hated him..." "Hated him ever since." "the hatred I felt turned into remorse." "my father is no longer in this world to apologize to." "worst book of his." "I wanted to rid the world of it for the sake of my father's good name." "My father would agree." "he wouldn't." "It's begun!" "What's this?" "Kemu Zaleon..." "His real name was Zekua Melon!" "He cast a spell on this book." "Magic?" "Dear Kaby?" "Kaby." "He cast a spell that rearranged the letters." "On the entire thing!" "Pretty! but because he wrote the most incredible one!" "Mr. Kaby!" "I was always thinking of you." "That's the true book that Kemu Zaleon left to you." "thank you." "I cannot let this book be burned." "then!" "Aye!" "The request was to destroy the book." "And we didn't complete it." "that's... so why don't we take him up on it?" "Greedy." "So much for all those cool things you said before." "That's different!" "so that's that." "We do!" "I want it!" "Let's go home." "Melon." "Go back to your real home." "I can't believe this!" "000 slide like that?" "Taking money for a request that wasn't completed would damage Fairy Tail's good name. {the irony is intended}" "Aye!" "But we did such a good job!" "Why not?" "And we're walking home?" "Those people weren't even rich?" "They said they just rented that house for appearances." "I would have taken the job even if they hadn't gone to all that trouble." "I wonder about that." "I would have!" "Probably." "how did you notice the house wasn't theirs?" "They smelled different than the house." "Anybody could have noticed that." "Aye." "I'm not an animal." "But I really look up to a writer like that." "Just as I thought." "That thing you were hiding... isn't it?" "That's why you know all about books." "okay?" "Why not?" "I-I'm still really bad!" "I'd just die of embarrassment if someone read it!" "no one will." "That doesn't exactly make me feel better." "are you sure this is the way?" "...she says." "says I." "How rude!" "obviously!" "Cat's have an excellent sense of smell!" "Isn't that dogs?" "And what does smell have to do with direction?" she says." "you lazy bum?" "she says." "Sheesh..." "Who are you?" "!" "Is he looking for a fight?" she says." "Natsu!" "It's Gray!" "Why is he in his underwear?" she says." "I was looking for a bathroom!" "jerk?" "And there's no way there'd be a bathroom in the forest anyway!" "you bastard!" "Exhibitionist!" "in third grade?" "Talking matchstick!" "She says!" "I see!" "You're coming back from a job." "see." "see?" "but you didn't even realize Gray was there?" "There are some things you don't want to smell." "What's that?" "!" "Enough of you." "Get on back already by yourself." "Of course." "It'll be trouble if I don't get back soon." "What kind of trouble?" "Erza'll be back shortly." "her..." "The woman known as the most powerful wizard in Fairy Tail!" "{edit: the previous wording made it seem that Happy hadn't met her yet}" "Awesome!" "I want to meet her!" "so what kind of person is she?" "Scary." "Wild animal?" "Beast?" "More like an evil demon!" "She's not that big." "But she's bigger than you'd think!" "It's about right if you're talking about how scary she is." "maybe it's even worse." "this bad!" "I think she could blow away a mountain into 3 pieces with a single kick!" "I think it's more like two." "A woman that can blow a mountain in two with a single kick?" "{this line implies Lucy knew it was a woman}" "That's pretty scary." "we've got to hurry home." "let's go!" "A wizard?" "Happy!" "Aye..." "We're gonna get us some protein for once!" "I'm so sick of fruits and nuts!" "Meat!" "Looks delicious." "this guy's shaking." "Sorry 'bout this." "Guess you're scared 'cause you'll end up in our bellies!" "No." "I'm not shaking because I'm scared." "I have to go to the bathroom." "I might not be able to hold it in." "I'm sure." "Shut up." "Do it!" "Meat!" "please." "I can't stand it!" "Are you sure about this?" "I'll taste weird!" "Wait right there!" "Happy!" "Thank goodness!" "I won't taste weird!" "You're still going on about that?" "bub. {these four lines all start at the same time} but we can't let you eat him." "right?" "From what guild?" "None of your business!" "Get 'em!" "let's do this." "Don't order me around." "Take this!" "Sand Bomb!" "Natsu!" "Leave him!" "Take care of Happy!" "R-Right!" "no!" "I'm going to be eaten by Lucy!" "cat." "Meat!" "Meat!" "Who's next?" "!" "You'll get an unexpected visitor." "The stars point to trouble with water and women. {I love the foreshadowing of Juvia!" "}" "Fortune telling?" "Shut it!" "He's not even using magic?" "Wow!" "your clothes..." "Whoa!" "What is that guy?" "oh!" "you." "How dare you make my mouth all gritty!" "Take this!" "Iron Fist of the Fire Dragon!" "You don't have to get serious against these small fry." "How about I fry up that smart mouth of yours?" "I doubt you could." "Not with those lukewarm flames of yours." "yeah?" "Baggy pants!" "Lulla..." "Ill-tempered!" "what?" "Sourpuss!" "Hothead!" "The lulla... by..." "Huh?" "Lullaby?" "Watch out!" "What was that?" "Who is it?" "I can't sense them anymore already." "It's someone crazy fast." "Damn it!" "I don't get this at all!" "Lullaby?" "I did my best but it was all for nothing." "But it seems like they really appreciated it." "Just do your best for the reward in your next mission." "R-Right..." "That's right!" "what kind of outfit are you going to work in next?" "I think she's got the wrong impression!" "she always keeps herself armored} it was... then it's a bunny girl or swimsuit next usually..." "Listen to people when they're talking!"
