The chapter opens with a description of the members of the fairy-tail guild, including a wizard named Gildarts. The wizard is said to have the ability to crush anything that he touches. He is described as having a high reputation, and his magic is believed to be an advanced form of destruction. The chapter ends with a discussion of the disappearance of the dragons that taught dragon-slayer magic in the year 2000 and the subsequent disappearance of all the other dragons except for the sky dragon, which disappeared on July 7th. Gildadarts comments on the fact that he has caught a fish and wonders if he will be able to bring it back the next time he sees it. He tells Carla that he is going to protect her, and Carla responds that she cannot protect him because he does not even know who he is. He then tells her that she can protect him when she does not know what she is. The guild enters the body, and the two begin to talk. Carla says that she never thought he had come to the guild, and that she is now hisstogan. She tells him that they do not have much time to enjoy their reunion, and he is sorry that he never went back to her. He says that he hopes that the rain does not let up, and they will all die.
