Dear Kaby

Duke Everlue is about to crush Lucy when Happy appears and ends his struggle. Lucy summons Cancer, her crab spirit. Oblivious to Natsu's presence, Duke Everlue summons Virgo. Lucy and Cancer easily defeat him. They take the book back to Kaby, the son of the book's author Zekua. Kaby explains that his father considered Daybreak to be the worst book he had ever written, and intends to destroy it to protect his father's honor. However, Lucy reveals that the book contains a secret message for Kaby from his father as an apology for neglecting him over the years while writing the book for Everlue. To Lucy's chagrin, Natsu and Happy respectfully decline the reward as Kaby does not have as much money as he claimed he would give.
