As the Scarlet Celestial Maiden and the Moon Dragon fiercely battled…
Within the clouds fortified with countless shields…
Evan had already passed through the shields and arrived before everyone.
“Master, I’m so glad you’re alright…”
“I was so worried about you…”
As soon as Kurnugi saw Evan, he rushed to hug him.
“Sorry for making you worry…”
Evan looked at Kurnugi, who embraced him tightly, with a hint of apology in his expression.
“That’s not what you were saying earlier!”
“Earlier, you were celebrating that Evan was going to be taken by Selene to make children! You were happy you wouldn’t be Selene’s youngest anymore…”
Mest watched Kurnugi’s changing expressions and inwardly complained.
“Phew…”
“Evan, I’m sorry for making you take such a huge risk for our Edolas world!”
After venting his frustration, Mest sighed and bowed deeply to Evan, expressing his guilt for involving Evan in their dangerous predicament.
“Since we are comrades of Fairy Tail, there’s no need for that…”
Hearing Mest’s apology, Evan gently shook his head.
In fact, if this hadn’t involved Irene, Evan wouldn’t have minded…
But the issue had escalated, involving Irene, causing Evan’s heart to be full of worry.
“Yo~ Evan, long time no see~”
After Kurnugi and Mest greeted Evan, August finally smiled and greeted Evan.
As for Natsu, he was still unconscious due to the transportation magic affecting him.
“Long time no see…” Evan had noticed August earlier and nodded in response, then immediately asked, “August, when exactly did you arrive?”
“I just got here…”
August responded with a light smile.
“Stop lying…”
Evan looked at August with suspicion. He knew this old man too well—August was likely here for a while but chose to hide until the critical moment.
“I’m telling the truth. Unlike you, I’m not very skilled in world-crossing magic~”
“But His Majesty is different. He often travels to other worlds alone, so he might have arrived much earlier…”
August replied modestly.
“Yeah, right, the so-called Magic King who supposedly knows more magic than Zeref isn’t skilled at using magic…”
Evan scoffed, not believing a word. August, with his ability to replicate magic and his unique chaotic magic, wouldn’t have trouble with any form of magic. Therefore, Evan concluded that nothing August said could be trusted.
“His Majesty… So, Zeref, Lord Zeref also came?”
Evan’s suspicions were confirmed. Only Zeref, the king of the Western Continent’s Alvarez Empire, could make the Magic King, August, address him as ‘His Majesty.’ This meant that Zeref had indeed arrived in Elentear after receiving Evan’s call for help, just like August, and chose to remain hidden and observe.
“Since you’re both here, could you help stop this battle?”
Evan asked, deeply concerned for Irene’s safety.
“Evan, you’re worrying too much…”
“Look outside. Does Irene seem like someone who needs help?”
August smiled, seeing Evan’s tense demeanor. He knew Evan cared deeply for Irene, fearing she would get hurt…
But Irene, one of the top-tier mages in this world, wasn’t easily defeated.
“Evan…”
While Evan marveled at Irene and Selene’s magical power, Irene spoke up.
“Irene.”
Evan immediately responded.
“Remember, against such a b*tch, you have to hit hard!”
Irene gently smiled at Evan, even in the face of a strong opponent, not forgetting to teach him…
In the next moment, Irene transformed into a scarlet light, appearing before Selene, and slapping her beautiful face.
“Slap~”
Selene hadn’t expected Irene to strike so suddenly and took the hit directly.
“Damn woman…”
Selene felt the stinging pain on her cheek, touching her reddened face with burning anger in her eyes.
For women, especially beautiful ones, being slapped in the face was intolerable…
“Oh my~ Your current look suits you well~”
Irene mocked Selene, her long lashes fluttering as she smirked.
“Interesting! I’ll return this slap…”
Selene wiped the blood from her lip, her nine fluffy tails blocking all directions, attacking Irene.
“Foolish~”
Irene dodged with a spatial magic move, appearing above Selene.
“Add: Scorching Heat!!”
Irene smiled at Selene, swinging her staff lightly.
“Boom!!”
A gigantic fireball, over a kilometer in diameter, descended on Selene.
“Ah!!”
Selene screamed, crashing into the ground from Irene’s attack…
“She’s so strong…”
Evan watched, stunned by the violent magic. Irene’s scorching heat spell made his seem like a small spark.
“Evan, do you see? When facing bad women, you have to strike hard without mercy~”
Irene smiled at Evan, pleased with his nodding, indicating he understood completely.
“Got it!”
Evan, sweating, nodded repeatedly, not daring to argue with Irene.
“Oh my~ I’m glad you understand~”
“Now, go up there and meet that old man, find a safe place, and wait for me to finish off this b*tch~”
Irene pointed to a cloud not far from Evan, suggesting he hid there.
“Old man?”
Evan looked at the cloud, realizing it formed an elderly man’s face. He recognized it instantly, “So August has been here all along?”
“It seems that old man is your acquaintance~”
Irene noticed Evan’s reaction and smiled, confirming her guess.
“Yes.”
Evan nodded, acknowledging that August was indeed his ally.
Meanwhile…
The battle outside continued!
Roars collided! Fists clashed! Dragon Slayer Magic surged!
After three days of fierce combat, Irene and Selene finally stopped.
In the endless ruins…
Irene and Selene reverted to human form, glaring at each other with killing intent.
“Hmph! I won…”
Inside their minds, both Irene and Selene declared victory.
“Her bust…”
“Her hips…”
“Are smaller than mine!!”
Irene and Selene’s eyes focused on each other’s weaker points, each smiling victoriously.
“I’ll leave Evan with you for now…”
“But you better watch him closely. If you slip even a bit, I might just take him away~”
Selene licked her lips seductively, teasing Irene.
“You shameless vixen, even from another world, I can smell your stench~”
“So rest assured! If you touch Evan, I’ll cut off your claws…”
Irene spoke calmly but with deadly intent.
“Haha~”
“Maybe your son likes someone like me~”
Selene’s nine fluffy tails swayed seductively.
“Rest assured, my child will never love a fox~”
Irene scoffed, her words filled with disdain.
Both laughed lightly, but their eyes were full of murderous intent.
“Boom!”
At that moment, Evan and the others descended.
“Irene, are you alright?”
Evan rushed to Irene’s side, worried.
“Don’t worry! I’m not weak enough to be defeated by the likes of her…”
Irene patted Evan’s head, smiling gently.
“Phew…”
Evan sighed in relief, realizing he needed to become stronger, so Irene wouldn’t always have to rescue him.
“How strange, my head is dizzy. Maybe I’m overworked…”
“Why don’t we take a bath together and discuss our agreement~”
As Evan pondered, a soft presence leaned against him from behind.
“Hmm?!”
Evan felt a shock, realizing who it was…
Selene, the Moon Dragon, her perfect body pressed against him, making him tense.
“Oh my~”
“It seems Evan likes my body more than I thought~”
Selene caressed Evan’s face, blowing hot breath into his ear.
“Hmph~”
Irene, displeased, pulled Evan away, shielding him.
“I’d love to take a bath with you and discuss things. What do you think?”
Irene challenged Selene, feeling slightly smug.
“Hmph~”
Selene snorted, disliking the idea of bathing with someone with a better figure.
The two women laughed lightly, looking like old friends if not for the killing intent in their eyes.
“Boom!”
At that moment, Evan and the others landed.
“Irene, are you alright?”
Evan rushed to Irene, worried.
“Don’t worry! I’m strong enough to handle her…”
Irene patted Evan’s head, smiling.
“Phew…”
Evan sighed, realizing he needed to become stronger to avoid always needing Irene’s rescue.
“I know what I need to do to get stronger.”
“How strange, I’m dizzy. Maybe it’s overwork…”
“Why don’t we take a bath and discuss our agreement~”
As Evan pondered, a soft presence leaned against him.
“Hmm?!”
Evan felt a shock, realizing it was…
Selene, pressed against him, making him tense.
“Oh my~”
“It seems Evan likes my body more than I thought~”
Selene caressed Evan’s face, blowing hot breath into his ear.
“Hmph~”
Irene, displeased, pulled Evan away, shielding him.
“I’d love to take a bath with you and discuss things. What do you think?”
Irene challenged Selene, feeling slightly smug.
“Hmph~”
Selene snorted, disliking the idea of bathing with someone with a better figure.
Both laughed lightly, looking like old friends if not for the killing intent in their eyes.
