Chapter 46

Tear is the forty-sixth chapter of Hiro Mashima's Fairy Tail.

Full Summary
The next day, Lucy sees Gray’s scar. It is permanent, but Gray likes it. They get ready to leave, and Erza says that since the request was unofficial, they cannot take the money, but out of respect for their newfound friendship, they will take the key. Lucy is over the moon in happiness, but the guys do not care.

They all leave using the ship Erza hijacked with every villager wanting them to come and visit. Lyon and the others see from afar, and Lyon, having followed Gray’s advice, asks Sherry “Are guilds any fun?”

At Era, Ultear arrives and meets with Siegrain. They are both disappointed about Deliora’s fate, and we learn that the daughter Ur thought dead is actually Ultear. She belittles her mother, but nevertheless, they both think highly of her magic. Ultear thinks highly of Natsu too, and Siegrain thinks that for his plan to work, he must burn bright.

The guys return home, fretting over the reward. Erza reminds them of the punishment, and Natsu, Happy and Gray mention 'that. They are so afraid of that' that Natsu tries to leave, Gray talks to himself, and Happy is in denial. Lucy wonders what that is; as do we, but all she gets is fear and more fear. She groans as Erza pulls them along. On their way, a lot of the citizens are looking at them empathetically, whispering that they haven’t seen it yet. They finally see. The guild has been torn apart by metal rods, surging out of the center.
