Sweating bullets, Jellal tried to walk by Doran. Looking down, he said,  "Excuse me. I'm in a hurry."

Before he could get far, Doran grabbed his shoulder. Frowning, he said, "I cannot allow that! Mystogan is not on Earth-land."

"I am Mystogan." Before Jellal could react, Doran took ahold of his hat and threw it off. "What?!" 

"Just who are you?!"

When they saw Jellal's face, their eyes widened. Lahar yelled, "Jellal?!"

Before things could escalate, Yajima stepped in. "Ohh! There  you are...Mystogan!" Smiling, he looked towards Jellal.

"Yajima!" Doran turned towards him.

"Lahar, now I think you understand why Mystogan hides his face."

"Huh?"

"It is simply his bad luck that he was born with the same face as Jellal. Just try to imagine it." Yajima frowned as he sighed.

"You mean they're...not the same person?!"

"You've heard about the place called 'Edolas,' haven't you?"

"Yes...The men have mentioned it...That world and this are connected. And there are people there born with the same faces as people here." Turning to Jellal, Lahar watched as he looked down. "Then you  are a man of Edolas?"

"...Yes."

Meanwhile, as Kagura and the other members of Mermaid Heel were walking in the crowd, Kagura caught a glimpse of Jellal. "Jellal..." she muttered. As her eyes widened, she started to cough. Putting a hand to her mouth, she kneeled down.

"Kagura!" Arana said.

"Wait! What's the matter?" Risley asked as the others yelled her name. 

  Simultaneously, Magi were walking around. However, when they saw Kagura coughing, they looked at each other out of concern and confusion.

"Hey, guys, you think she's okay?" Aladdin asked.

"I don't think so..." Morg said.

  With that, they walked towards Mermaid Heel.

Kneeling down, Arana put her hand on Kagura's back. "Kagura! Pull yourself together!" Meanwhile, Milli and Risley told people to call the 'emergency responders.'

"Hey! Is she alright?" Sin asked.

"Obviously!" Risley said, sarcastically.

"Sorry! We just wanted to help..." Alibaba said.

Nervously laughing, Beth bowed to them. "Sorry 'bout her. We're just really worried about our friend."

Shaking his hands, Muu smiled. "It's fine. We asked the obvious, after all."

  While they conversed, Milli looked around. Upon seeing Jellal, she was infuriated, she snapped. However, as Kagura coughed, she looked back at her.

"I am fine. Everyone remain calm." Kagura said while panting.

"But...! He's right over there...!" 

Getting up, Kagura dusted herself off, gripping her katana. "Yes, I know. I am all right now. Forgive me." Glaring, she couldn't accept the fact that Fairy Tail was hiding him. "They  were giving him safe harbor?"

"Fairy Tail? Doing that for Jellal? But why? Er-chan would..."

  Looking down, Magi felt guilt for what happened to Milli, but were confused when it came to Kagura. 'What did she have to do with Jellal?' they thought.
