Chapter 797: And so the battle ended
Facing the dragons that were ready to die, Acnorolia went straight into serious mode, flapped his wings and flew out, raising his huge fists and smashing down.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! …
One dragon, one punch, effortlessly.
After an extremely brief but unforgettable beating in which he had no power to resist, Igunelu was kicked heavily to the ground and fell together with the remaining four dragons.
The five dragons' heads are facing inwards and their tails are facing outwards, forming a ☆ pattern, just like a beautiful little red flower.
"Damn it..." Igunelu, who collapsed on the ground, groaned in despair, "It really doesn't work..."
"Ignelu! I'm here to help you!"
Seeing that five dragons attacked at the same time and his father was defeated in less than a minute, Natsu could no longer control his emotions. He ran over while crying and yelling, stumbling along the way, like a helpless and poor little boy.
"Natsu... I'm sorry, I can't accompany you any longer..."
"Let's go together! As long as we join forces, no one can defeat us!!!"
Acnologia: Hehehe...
"No... No! Natsu! He is not an ordinary enemy. Even if we attack him together, we may not be his match!" Igunelu was barely breathing. The battle just now consumed too much of his magic power, and his body began to dissipate.
On the other side, Iron Dragon, Sky Dragon, White Dragon, and Shadow Dragon were also saying their final goodbyes to Gajeel, Wendy, Stinger, and Rogue.
"More than four hundred years ago, Acnorolia's dragon-killing magic extracted the 'souls' of all dragons."
"We have been staying inside your body all this time, not only to prevent you from turning into a dragon, but also to prolong our lives. Once we come out of your body, we can never go back..."
“Seeing how you have grown to where you are today, we are sincerely pleased and proud of you.”
"The days I spend with you are the happiest times of my life!"
Listening to the dragons explaining to their children in the tone of fathers and mothers why they had not appeared all this time, expressing their happiness for their growth and thanking them for their companionship, the wizards present were all moved to tears.
A sad mood suddenly enveloped the entire battlefield.
"The age of dragons has long ended . What is needed to create the future is the power of humans. You will encounter various difficulties in the future, but you will be able to do it!"
As soon as these words were spoken, all the magicians present were stunned. Their original sad emotions came to an abrupt end. Then they looked at each other with extremely strange expressions on their faces.
Although what the dragons said is not wrong, we haven't won this battle yet! Don't act as if Acnorolia will leave us alone today! !
Huh? Wait! Anyway, where did Acnorolia go?
Everyone looked around, but couldn't find the other person at all.
On the other side, where no one could see, Acnorolia had turned into a human form again, but he didn't even look at Iguneru and other dragons lying on the ground, but walked straight towards a pretty boy with black hair and white clothes standing in the corner of the battlefield.
Zeref, the Dark Mage; Acnorolia, the Dragon King.
The two ceiling-level existences finally met officially at this moment.
"You didn't kill them?" Jellal looked at the figure who had regained his human form and was standing in front of him. He was surprised. "I thought you wouldn't let any dragon go."
When he saw Acnorolia flying towards him, Zeref sent Mavis away, so now he had no burden and could ask whatever questions he wanted to ask.
Akunorolia was calm and snorted, "I have killed them once before! Those who have been defeated by me, even if they are dragons, can't make any waves!"
After facing the strongest magic coalition including Ishgar and the Albareth Empire, as well as the five giant dragons led by Igner, he was able to escape unscathed. At this time, Acnorolia's confidence had swelled to the extreme.
Zeref had no way to refute it, because he had seen the entire battle and knew that Acnorolia was much stronger than he thought.
Even if I get the 'Fairy's Heart' and become a White Mage, I may not be his match. What's more, I can't sacrifice Mavis now!
"So what do you want to do next? Attack the Dragon Slayers?"
Zeref was very curious about Acnorolia's current thoughts and intentions. He also found that the man in front of him was much more rational than he expected, the Dragon King who would kill any dragon he saw, even the Dragon Slayer. However, if the other party wanted to attack Natsu, he would not sit idly by.
While talking, Jellal was secretly gathering magic.
He swore that if Akunorolia made a mistake in saying a word, he would immediately take action and strike first! In this position, he was confident that he could cause the other party a lot of trouble.
But how could Zeref's little trick escape Acnorolia's eyes? So when he noticed this scene, he suddenly fell silent: "..."
Why do everyone think I will attack the Dragon Slayer? Didn't they attack me first?! Is it me or you? Or is it this world that has a problem? ?
After thinking for a long time, Acnorolia turned around and looked down at the dragon slayers who were bidding their final farewell to the dragons, then raised his head proudly: "I have no interest in those humans."
"What did you say?!" Jellal was stunned, and the magic power that had gathered in his hands dissipated instantly.
The surprise came too suddenly and he was not prepared.
At this moment, a voice sounded from behind the two of them: "Not interested in humans? Then I feel relieved."
The two turned back in surprise and found that Kira had arrived here without them knowing when, with a playful smile on his face, making them want to punch him.
"It's you? The red-haired kid?" Acnorolia narrowed his eyes, and his fists suddenly stiffened when he thought of the days when he was trapped in Elentina.
Looking at Acnorolia's suddenly unfriendly eyes, Kira, who was about to step forward to get close to them and then get arm in arm with the two of them and call them brothers, suddenly had a very bad premonition in his heart, so he stopped abruptly at the last moment.
"You are the Dragon King, such a proud being, you will definitely not break your promise and gain wealth, right?"
"Humph! You are an exception!"
Even though he didn't have a very good impression of Kira, with Zeref present, Acnorolia didn't want to ruin his reputation, and didn't want to go back on his word, so he subconsciously loosened his fist. Then he thought that he was able to go to Elentina thanks to Kira's help, and the anger in his chest disappeared by half.
"Since you didn't do it right away, you probably won't do it again later, right?"
Kira thought so, and walked forward bravely, but he did not stand in the middle, nor did he lean against Acnorolia. Instead, he stood on the other side of Zeref with all his heart.
The three of them were silent for a long time. When the atmosphere became awkward , Kira asked again, "Are you really not going to pay attention to the Dragon Slayers?"
“…”
Akunorolia didn't answer, but his attitude said it all.
"So what happened?"
This is totally inconsistent with my memory! Which butterfly caused this effect? Did I do anything about it?
Kira looked at Jellal, and Jellal shook his head at him, indicating that he didn't know the reason.
"So I can declare the war over?"
"as you like!"
The three of them just stood on the top of the mountain and watched the activities of the wizards below quietly. They didn't turn their gaze away until they saw Igner and other dragons bid farewell to Natsu and the others and their bodies disappeared into the sky.
"From now on, the age of dragons is completely over!"
After leaving these last words, Acnorolia transformed into a giant dragon and leaped up. After circling several times, it flew into the distance until it merged with the night and disappeared from the sight of Kira and Zeref.
