Lucy's treatment was indeed enviable, but Moen didn't need to explain anything, and no one dared to question him. Even if they did, it would be pointless. Moen just smiled and didn't answer.
Thanks to Moen's efficient work, the book signing event quickly came to a successful conclusion.
His ever-present professional smile and his steely arm used for signing autographs propelled the process forward, extending the signing event by more than two hours ahead of schedule.
Fortunately, the next segment had already been arranged, so the concert could proceed seamlessly without leaving everyone waiting.
The fans who had just attended the autograph session reunited in the theater's audience seats. The autographed books in their hands were the concert tickets and seat numbers, and the order had already been filled in for them.
Lucy was already seated, but she was invited to the VIP section, where she saw a familiar figure.
"dad!"
Upon seeing Jude Heartfilia, Lucy exclaimed in surprise and immediately went closer. She hadn't seen her father for some time, so seeing him here was naturally very exciting.
Upon hearing his daughter's voice and seeing her running towards him, Jiude was stunned for a moment, clearly not expecting to run into Lucy here.
"Lucy? What brings you here?"
Seeing Lucy approaching, Jiude frowned and asked.
"I'm here for Mr. Moen's book signing."
Seeing her father frown and look sternly questioning her, Lucy's high spirits immediately deflated. She spoke softly, knowing that her father didn't like her running around and that he would definitely be unhappy to see her here.

Looking at Lucy's stubborn face, Jiude's expression was somewhat complicated.
Although he knew Lucy was a fan of Moen's books, he didn't expect his daughter to like Moen's books so much that she would sneak out by herself to attend Moen's book signing.
Lucy used to run away from home so disobeyingly just to find him, but now there's someone else worth doing that for.
Having known Moen for so long, Jiude hadn't arranged for Lucy and Moen to meet, partly because he was genuinely busy, extremely busy.
Secondly, it was out of his own selfishness. After truly recognizing and understanding the power of Moen and Fairy Tail, Judo became somewhat reluctant to let Lucy get too involved with them.
The death of Jude's wife, Leila, remained a thorn in his side.
Although Leila didn't tell Jiude the specific reason, Jiude wasn't stupid. He knew it must be because of the mage that his wife's health suddenly deteriorated to the point of near death.
Since then, Jude has become increasingly aware of the dangers of the mage world; the more outstanding and famous one is, the more dangerous it becomes.
Being an ordinary junior mage and doing trivial tasks is actually not very dangerous.
As for Leila, an excellent Celestial Spirit Mage, she was quite famous throughout the continent, yet she died so suddenly because the things she was involved in were extremely dangerous.
Moen and Fairy Tail's immense strength and ability to cause trouble touched a nerve with Judo.
This caused Jude's attitude to change. He went from initially hoping that Lucy could establish a master-disciple relationship with Moen to now hoping that Lucy could stay away from Moen and Fairy Tail. It can be said that he went to two extremes.
Jude couldn't stop Lucy from learning Celestial Magic, because it was something Leila had taught Lucy.
Leila said that she would support Lucy as long as she wanted to learn, and she would have the Protoss who had signed contracts with her take care of and protect Lucy.
But Jude thought that if he only let Lucy learn casually and didn't let her get involved in the messy affairs of the magic world, he could avoid the tragedy that happened to Leila from repeating itself.
"Lucy, what do you think of Moen?"
Looking at Lucy, Jiude suddenly asked a question.
"Mr. Moen? He's an incredibly talented person! Not only is he an extremely powerful Celestial Spirit Mage, but his books and music are also fantastic! He's the kind of person I aspire to be!"
When faced with her father's question, Lucy answered earnestly that the person she wanted to be was someone like Moen.
She is also a Celestial Spirit Mage with a very powerful heritage. Her mother left her a lot of "legacy", including two Zodiac Celestial Spirits. She also loves to write, and she has begun to organize the stories her mother used to tell her, preparing to write them into a collection of stories.
In Lucy's eyes, Mohn is her best idol and role model.

Jiude was speechless for a moment. He didn't know that his daughter had always thought this way, nor did he know that she had taken Moen as her goal. Was this really possible? Was her ambition a little too far-reaching?
Although Jude knew that his wife Leila had left Lucy a considerable inheritance, even his famous wife Leila would have to take a backseat to Moen now.
Lucy compared herself to Moen and even made Moen her goal to catch up with, which made Jiude also start comparing the two of them.
Upon comparison, Jiude realized that he might have been overthinking things.
'Maybe I'm overthinking it? Even if Lucy became a mage, she probably wouldn't encounter any real danger. Compared to geniuses like Moen and the others, her talent is probably just average, right?'
Whether Lucy can reach the same level of professional achievement as her mother Leila is currently unknown, let alone compare to Moen.
Jiude began to think that perhaps it wouldn't be a bad thing to let Lucy join "Fairy Tail". After all, if the sky falls, there are tall guys like Moen to hold it up, so there's no need for Lucy anyway.
Leila ended up in that situation perhaps because she had no organization, no guild, and no one of high standing to protect her.
Seeing her father's constantly changing expression, Lucy looked worried. She was afraid that her words had angered him, and the little girl carefully observed her father's expression.
However, at this moment, Jiude, whose mind was filled with a constant clash of ideas, did not notice Lucy's worries. He frowned and continued to consider the pros and cons.
"Lucy, answer me seriously. If I asked you to join the Fairy Tail guild and become Moen's apprentice, would you be willing?"
Just as Lucy was feeling uneasy, Jiude suddenly spoke up.
These words made Lucy's eyes widen. She stared blankly at her father, wondering if she had misheard.
