Hades: "So, those Dragon Slayer mages were actually from four hundred years ago, but they crossed the time barrier and came to our era?"
Ultear: "Then that makes sense. That explains why Eileen from the previous world was worried about not being able to meet again."
"Is it because she's afraid that Black Natsu has gone to the extremely distant future, and she won't be able to live to see that time?"
Mirajane: "If that's the case... then Erin is just taking a pure gamble, she's practically betting her whole life on whether they'll ever meet again."
Erza: "Just how devoted must one be to make such a decision!"
"However, why do I still feel so averse to it? What is the reason for this?"
on the screen.
[Accompanied by Anna's soft murmur.]
The tightly closed doors were opened by twelve beams of light, and a holy white light gradually emanated from them.
Witnessing this scene, Anna understood that it was the sacred radiance connecting time and space.
Similarly, this is also the brilliance that changes one's destiny.
Anna turned and looked back at the five children behind her.
"The unknown future rests on your shoulders. Show your true brilliance in that world, and fight to defeat Acnologia!"
Without hesitation, Anna led the five children across the doorway and disappeared.
The image on the celestial screen also rotated accordingly.
[And it was marked with the date, July 7th, X777, at the early morning...]
On the other side of the door, a woman who looked remarkably like Lucy, almost identical to her, was panting heavily, her forehead already covered in sweat.
Beyond the celestial curtain!
Lucy is struck by lightning again!
"This!!! Is my mom???"
"The door...it really opened? The ancestral teachings didn't lie to me..." Leila finally smiled, looking at the pure white light emanating from within the door.
[Layla Heartfilia, also a descendant of Anna!]
[An ancient book has been passed down in her family for generations, said to date back four hundred years.]
According to records, it seems to be a family precept passed down from Anna Heartfilia, the ancestor of the Heartfilia family.
[So that your descendants, in an era of abundant magical energy, can gather the twelve keys to the zodiac and then open the gates of the solar eclipse.]
Leila doesn't know if the era she lives in is the one with abundant magical energy as described in her ancestral teachings, but she doesn't want her next generation, Lucy, to bear such a burden.
Therefore, they chose to initiate the solar eclipse in this era to fully understand the mission of the Heartfilia family.
"That's..." Leila's gaze gradually locked onto the figure slowly emerging from the light.
"Are you the one who initiates this era's solar eclipse?"
Anna's voice then came through.
The connectors of two eras met at this moment...
[Boom—]
Just then, a noticeable tremor emanated from the Eclipse Gate behind Anna.
Immediately afterwards, five beams of light shot straight out from the portal of the eclipse.
That night, the people in the capital of King Fiore all saw five beams of light that suddenly appeared, flashing like a comet.
That was a symbol of a new era, but no one could understand it at the moment.
【…】
[Inside a primeval forest, light enveloped Black Natsu as he descended upon it.]
【boom----!!】
The deafening roar of the 750 startled the birds in the forest, as well as all the nocturnal creatures.
But strangely, no living being could reach the center of that roaring sound.
[For all the creatures in the forest, they smelled a dangerous aura that they absolutely could not approach.]
It was as if... a giant dragon had descended upon this place.
[And at that landing point.]
The light faded, revealing Black Natsu's unharmed form.
He sat up from the ground and rubbed his head with one hand.
It was like sorting out a jumble of thoughts in my mind.
In the end, it all turned into a long sigh.
"Is it over?"
He stroked his chest.
His keen senses allowed him to clearly perceive the warmth in his chest.
That's the temperature of Igneru.
[All the information I had gathered before flashed through my mind, such as the scene where Medalicana's dragon claws became ethereal.]
He seemed to have understood something.
The dragons... have encountered some unknown condition that has made it impossible for them to continue living.
Therefore, it chose to hide inside the body of a Dragon Slayer mage, prolonging its weakened life.
Furthermore, according to Igneel and Anna, there was another reason they traveled to the future: because of Acnologia.
Why go through all that trouble to travel to the future and then deal with Acnologia?
Clearly, they were no longer able to defeat them in that era, which is why they came up with this plan.
[In an era of high magical energy concentration, the goal is to train Dragon Slayer Mages so that they can eventually grow to the point where they can defeat Acnologia.]
So, is the condition of the dragons' bodies related to Acnologia?
It's highly likely.
After a series of analyses, most of the reasons have become clear.
Therefore, the next objective is also clear.
First, we must find a way to restore the dragons' bodies so that Igneel and the other dragons can be revived once again.
Secondly...
"Acunorokia?"
Hennaz stood up, looked up at the sky, and narrowed his eyes slightly.
[The fist clenched unconsciously; the target was set at that moment!]
Chapter 93 Natsu: !! Makarov is Valken in disguise?!
Brian: "Huh? You figured that out already?"
"This kid is actually pretty good."
As someone who once served as the director of the Magical Development Bureau, Brian himself is a person with extremely high intelligence.
And you can tell from his code name.
The head of state represents extremely high intelligence.
Therefore, if one were to examine the analysis of everything that just happened carefully, Brian could roughly guess what Hazen had analyzed.
However, time definitely doesn't go that fast.
Just moments ago, Brian himself was still sorting through the information from various clues.
Henaz had already reached a conclusion and had not yet set a goal.
This is a bit scary.
Imagine how terrifying a person with both maxed-out intelligence and maxed-out combat power would be.
It's like the product of the complete fusion of Brian and Wu, two different personalities.
Absolutely crushes a one-man Brian.
It's the kind that beats everything else.
It's a very simple principle: you can't outsmart others when it comes to scheming.
You can flip the table, but you still can't beat someone else; that's how hopeless it is.
Hades: "I'm not surprised anymore. I think anything that happens to Honatsu makes sense."
"After all, this guy is an outrageous person."
