They had taken her allies hostage for an unknown reason, and it was Erza's mission to figure out why. Erza was given the ability to read these beings' minds, so she could gather as much info as possible of whatever plans they had in store for her friends . . . and possibly lots of other innocent people.

For these beings could use the very same power against her.
Mind-Readers is what the people in the city called them. Ruthless, mysterious and downright peculiar creatures in human form. There was almost no possible way to tell them apart from a normal human being . . . except for their exotic, luminous irises and the odd aura they occasionally gave off.
