2. The Memory of stars is technically in the celestial spirit world. As we know, the time there goes a bit faster than in the real world world. (rough estimates say about 30m passed in the Spirit world, about 2 days in the real world.)

So the real question here is... What happened to Natsu in those two days?

Didn't it was said that her key was born somewhere in this world?. I think it is possible that if someone found the key, they maybe able to summon Aquarius. A new master?.

Well they just said it now in this chapter, that's why I mentioned it. I don't think they said it in an earlier chapter.

I think you are giving too much value about this whole spirit world thing. It really didn't take Happy two days to take Natsu to their guild and Hiro is certainly not going to skip two days worth of fighting. The chance that Hiro made a mistake is exponentially higher than that he intentionally let a huge time gap behind.

Also it's quite debatable that the Memory of the Stars falls under the same principles of the Spirit World. So far each time someone went to the Spirit World, they went physically, nothing remained in the real world. When Natsu and the rest went to the Spirit World just before the Grand Magic Games, they came back wearing the cloths they received in the Spirit World. Also not any spirit can open a portal and take people with him. This is completely the opposite of what happened with Lucy and Brandish. They were taken by Aquarius and transformed into mermaids while Aquarius needed the help of the Spirit King to appear before them in the first place and they looked normal again when they returned. Aquarius also said that the Memory of the Stars is like a dream, but that what you see is very real. So this gives the impression that they physically never left the real world, only their subconscious/mind.

In the end the Memory of the Stars is a special creation of the celestial spirits, so by default it's arbitrary to assume the same time issues apply to the creation as to the Spirit World. Not to mention Lucy has a spirit called Crux or something (we haven't seen that one in a long time) and he specializes in relationships and the history between celestial spirits and celestial mages. I can hardly imagine that he does not use the Memory of the Stars and whenever Lucy asked for info, he just sat there with his eyes closed almost like he was sleeping. Now I doubt Hiro had 400 chapters ago already the idea of the Memory of the Stars, but now that it's there I think we can go for the explanation that Crux accessed it with his mind while remaining physically in the real world and that Lucy and Brandish did the same thing right now.

Either way it really can't be that two days have passed.

Or Natsu went into static state like how he was in Sirius Island for 7 years?. Or this is the first stage of demonization?.

The first possibility is likely. LOL if that's the first stage of demonization then it's hype XD. Sadly, as much I want it to be that it won't be the case. Isn't the new FT movie or something going to have that? I remember hearing that somewhere...

^ That's dragonification that is gonna be shown in the movie. What he meant is the first step of Natsu turning into END, which seems the most plausible for now.

Oh, okay. Yeah, I know.

Since dragonification will be featured in the movie then it is likely for that ending to be the first stage of turning into END. I got mixed up with it lol.
