As their mission had finished, when they returned to the guild Mich.e.l.le requested to officially solve the mystery behind the memento, which Lucy willingly agrees to as this was the last of her father"s stuff.Whilst Natsu and Lucy discuss a new job for them to gather money especially now that Natsu can take higher-level jobs, Carla still appears distraught by the memento.
??? : Carla? What is wrong??
Carla : Wendy!!!
Carla : Um, well...
Wendy : You ability kicked in?? What triggered it??
Carla sighed as WEndy suddenly came and started asking about her well being and everything that might be related to her distress...
After talking to her that she had a bad feeling about the wrapped item that Mich.e.l.le brought, Wendy also appeared a bit bothered by it...
Wendy : Did you had a vision or something??
Carla : Not yet...
Carla : However it keeps bugging me...
Wendy : I don"t think we should tell anything to Lucy as it still belongs to her dead father so we need to let her check it...
Wendy : However if the vision came that truly endangers everyone then we will act...
Hearing her words Carla nodded to her and felt as if something heavy was lifted from her existence...
On the room of Lucy in her apartment, Mich.e.l.le accidentally dropped the gear and activated on its own as it started levitating with runes appearing on it.
Mich.e.l.le : Ugh.... what now...
Lucy : Did it had to happen now?? Levy and Freed are not present, so i don"t think anyone would be able to read them.
Mich.e.l.le : Should we go to Makarov??
Lucy : For now let"s try...
They managed to place he Gear inside a case without touching and it was surprisingly easy, as it was already levitating in the air before they rushed at their Guild...
When they entered inside they saw Makarov drinking and went to him, saying they want to talk privetely...
At first, Makarov was stunned but as she had heard a few things about Mich.e.l.le from Wakaba, Macao and Laki he showed them the way...
Showing him the gear, Makarov from on the private room they were now gathered and tried to solve the runes...
As he knew that this was getting out of hand and he needed to act he told them not to get involved.
Lucy : But i want to get involved as i want to solve the riddle my father has left me.
Makarov : Perhaps this is something on the scale of Zeref and w have no way of knowing it...
Makarov : I will seal the gear now and wait for someone either from Ryouji"s side or from our side to pop up and read the runes...
Mich.e.l.le : Then we will follow the master"s opinion on this...
Lucy hearing that even Mich.e.l.le agreed to him, took one last glance at the runes imprinting them in her head before she agreed to it...

After leaving from there, Mich.e.l.le and Lucy, started looking through some ancient rune books to decipher what is written on the metal rod, this went on for close to 2 days until Erza and Gray came by...
Erza : Lucy, we found a job that you might be interested in...
Lucy : I"m kinda busy right now...
Gray : Are you sure?? We are going off on a job to retrieve stolen gold, the reward is quite high as well...
Lucy : Thanks but as i said i am busy.
Gray : Then should we tell Natsu??
Erza : No, Natsu has gone off somewhere, which mean that just the two of us will complete the job.
Gray : Have we actually gone on a job together apart from being a team??
Erza : Not that i can remember...
Gray : Then let"s see who will find them first...
Erza : Oh?? Thinking that you can beat me??
Gray : Who knows, its not a direct fight...
