A meeting with Erza Scarlet will herald the beginning of a new chapter in his life. Be ready, or you'll get burned.

The possibilities are endless. The universe moves and does what it pleases while the ones residing in it cannot do more than helplessly react accordingly to its machinations. Though at times, when someone believes to have the universe's plot unraveled, there is a startling change to see. Something no one expected happens and the universe continues its motion despite the variance.
