Chapter 331, Jellal: We Are the Challengers

"Sorry, everyone"

At the Elfman family, Alba Green, holding the child, was full of guilt.

Since she became pregnant, she has not participated in the guild's collective activities.

Because she can't breathe secondhand smoke, drink too much alcohol, or be too noisy or noisy when she is pregnant.

So Alba Green didn't participate in every event since the start of the Great Magic Fighting Performance.

Now that she has a child, and the baby is still in the cradle, the little guy is fragile and can't leave a moment of attention and care.

Alba Green can't go to this battle.

But Elfman will go, and Elfman can't stay at home for such a thing.

"It doesn't matter." The girls all comforted Alba Green.

"Protecting the little guy is your biggest task."

"Don't be unhappy, and make little Ellin unhappy."

In Alba Green's arms, there was a little white-haired guy with big eyes and very clean.

Before leaving, the girls decided to say goodbye to Alba Green.

After all, she had just become a mother, with a child, while her husband had to go to a battle, so it was inevitable that she would be overly sad.

Fortunately, Alba Green was sensible and firm enough, so there was no need for everyone to worry too much.

"Erlin must be good, listen to her mother, and grow up strong."

"When we come back, maybe Erlin can walk."

"It's amazing, such a little guy, just one look will make people reluctant to leave her."

"Okay-" Alba Green smiled: "If you like, give birth quickly after this battle."

The girls blushed immediately.

"It's time to get ready to leave, leave the last time to me and Elfman." Alba Green said.

"Okay." Everyone left.

"Albagelin." Albaglin sat on the swing, and Elfman squatted beside her, stretched out his hand to hold her hand, and said, "I will be back soon, don't worry."

"You don't have to worry about me. Although Elin is at the age of crying, I can take care of her. Don't underestimate me." Albaglin smiled, and she said, "As for you, with Yevlit and the others, I believe you will be fine, but - don't come back with injuries all over your body, I will feel bad, do what you can, don't be too reckless."

"I know." Elfman nodded.

"Elfman." Albaglin stretched out her hand to cover Elin's eyes, and then closed her eyes.

After a long and deep kiss.

Albagelin smiled and said, "Husband, come on!"

"Yeah!" Elfman nodded firmly, and then turned and left.

When he left home, his eyes were hot, but when he saw a large group of companions waiting for him, he held back the tears that were about to flow.

In the yard, Alba Green actually shed tears, and then wiped them away quickly.

Erlin in her arms seemed to feel the change in her mother's mood, and stretched out her short and fat arms, as if she wanted to hug her.

Alba Green hugged Erlin and whispered, "Let's wait for Dad to come back."

Erlin opened her mouth and shouted in a completely non-standard way: "Dad~"

Alba Green was stunned for a moment, and then she rushed out of the yard with the child in her arms, shouting, "Wait!"

Everyone looked back.

"Erlin--" Alba Green looked at Erlin expectantly.

"Dad~" was still a vague voice, but everyone heard it.

Suddenly, everyone covered their mouths, their faces full of emotion.

At this time, Natsu resolutely turned around, raised his fist, and shouted: "Fairy Tail--"

"Let's go!"

Everyone responded in unison: "Fairy Tail--Let's go!"

Came to the door.

Someone was waiting here.

Makarov, Silver, Igneel, two Grandines, Medalikana, Perslogia, and Shikiadora.

They stood on both sides of the road.

"Come on, kids." Makarov said.

"Oh——" Everyone responded.

"Yeflit——" After everyone had passed, Makarov shouted, "It's your turn to bloom!"

"Oh, I see." Yeflit pressed his hat so that no one could see his expression.

Not only Fairy Tail set out.

Guilds such as Snake Princess Scale, Four-Headed Hound, Blue Pegasus, Sword Bite Tiger, and Mermaid Heel also took action.

As foreign aid, Jellal, Cobra, Ultia, Melty, and Alice were also in the plan and got their own tasks.

The guild where Tiffany is located, Ilf, is a very weak guild, far inferior to the Scale of the Snake Princess. In addition to the super-standard Jura, the Scale of the Snake Princess also has strong people like Leo. Although the Ilf guild can be ranked as a second-rate guild, without Tiffany, it is at the bottom.

This time, Tiffany also set out and teamed up with Ultia.

"Ishgar. Is it moving?"

In a certain ravine.

Zeref walked calmly on the path.

"Sneak into my empire and want to launch a surprise attack."

"Some of them are indeed a bit tricky, but it doesn't matter."

"It doesn't matter even if you can't get the fairy's heart. That kind of technology is, after all, part of Herames's legacy, and I will get the greatest legacy of Herames."

"No one can defeat me, no one can kill me, I have seen clearly-"

"If you want to be completely free, there is only one way -"

"Natsu can't do it, Acnologia can't do it, and even that Everit can't do it."

"Only God can lift God's curse."

"But if you want to see God, you can only do it the way you did back then."

"Zerf, you are really a dangerous guy." A voice came from the front.

"You've arrived, Acnologia." Zeref looked forward. The thorn bush was pushed away, and a tall man with dark skin walked out of it. The thorns and spikes could not hurt him at all.

"It's rare - he actually turned into a human being." Zeref said.

This person is Acnologia, and he has never been an unconscious black dragon.

He has a clear sense of self, and everything he does follows his own will.

"Ha." Acnologia snorted coldly.

"The past Heramus, the master of alchemical civilization."

Zeref said slowly.

"You and I are now, in the age of dragons - the end of dragons, in the age of magic - the end of magic."

"The future Everit combines all the wisdom of the two eras, and is the one who has the most hope of taking that step."

"But unfortunately, this world does not need such a god - it does not need a god named Yefrit. Killing him is my mission."

"When did you become so righteous?" Akunolkia sneered.

"Because I have figured out why I am alive, why you are alive, and why - Heramus is alive," Zeref said.

"Why?" Acnologia doesn't like to use his brain. He hasn't used his brain much in hundreds of years.

His power is enough to solve any problem without using his brain.

"It's not because we did something wrong, or - this is not the main reason." Zeref looked at the book in his hand - the Book of END, he said: "God is not that boring, let people like us live , the disaster will be even greater.”

"And the punishment is nothing."

"Yevrit reminded me."

"If everything God does is to maintain the great peace of the world, so that the world will not be destroyed, for the continuation of life, and for their eternal divine power."

"Then people like us shouldn't exist."

"Unless - there is something we have to do. And in order for us to do that, he can allow us to make small fuss."

"." Acnologia narrowed his eyes slightly.

"We're here." Zeref looked at the steel gate in front of him.

He was talking to Acnologia just now while walking, entered this cave, and found this door.

"Heramus's final treasure." Acnologia said.

"Yes, I don't want to admit it, but God led us here."

"Boring." Acnologia turned around and wanted to leave.

"I know that because of your pride, you don't want to cooperate with me, nor do you want to accept Heramus' inheritance, but -"

Zeref smiled slightly: "I know you don't want to fail."

"At least, you won't die in the name of a loser."

Acnologia, who was about to leave, stopped, turned around, stared at Zeref with a scary look, and said, "Do you think you know me well?"

"I don't understand you at all, and I am as arrogant as you." Zeref said, "But - I am more intelligent than you."

Acnologia turned and walked back.

Zeref put his hand on the door and said, "God tells us the truth about this world, and then lets us——"

"Kill Everit."

‘Boom——’

Zeref threw open the door.

He and Acnologia stared blankly at the scene behind the door.

"It's actually" Akunologia, who was calm and proud, also showed a shocked expression and even stuttered a bit when he spoke.

"I'm really unhappy." Zeref said, "It turns out we are the challengers."

"But -" Zeref's eyes were a little obsessed. Compared to Acnologia, who was just shocked, as an extremely smart researcher, he felt the charm of technology beyond the ultimate.

Zeref and Acnologia stepped into the world behind the door, and the sounds of many people talking came from inside.

"Are you the great sages of this era?"

"The herald of magic and dragons looks so weak."

"Are you good at concealing your aura?"

"There's no need to guard against us."

"Fighting against the new gods is exciting just thinking about it."

"Come on, do you want to know the secrets of deception magic? I know them all. Whether it's deceiving the five senses or deceiving emotions, as long as you can learn it, I can teach you everything."

"The ultimate secret of alchemy - the door of truth, I can teach you to open it."

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.

"Come on, the secret behind the ultimate!"

"Welcome to the kingdom of truth!"

Zeref stopped, looked back outside, and said one sentence. That sentence spread across countless mountains, rivers, and even the sea, and finally reached the Albarez Empire.

"The war begins."

The Western Continent, the Albarez Empire, the royal capital, and the royal palace.

An oversized table.

Fourteen people were sitting.

They are——

The hunched old man, his turbid eyes seem to contain infinite experience and wisdom - the Minister of the Albares Empire - Akiel.

He has a well-proportioned figure, wearing a black hat, a black suit, a black magic cloak, and a gentleman's cane. The purple hair is carefully groomed and combed into a low ponytail. The blue-framed glasses are actually not prescription. With a gentle and innocent smile on his face, he seems to be attending a tea party - the wizard of Fairy Tail - the elegant magician - Yefrit de La Valliere, the user of fraud magic.

'Da'

Yefrit picked up the cup filled with hot milk, took a sip, and then put it on the table.

He looked at the old man in front of him, Yakir.

Everyone was present, it was time to start the meeting.

"Your Majesty's order has been conveyed, everyone has received it." Yakir said.
