“You, who are you?!”
Both Silver of Absolute Zero, Robin Lu, and even Wendy and Carla were stunned when they heard the boy’s voice. They were especially shocked when they saw that the speaker was a handsome boy with chestnut-red hair.
Silver, in particular, was filled with a bit of panic. He hadn’t even noticed how the boy had entered the guild.
When Silver’s gaze fell on the book with the letters E.N.D. in the boy’s hand, he froze.
Silver, one of Tartaros’s Nine Demon Gates and a demon slayer mage started sweating as he carefully examined the book the boy held. Finally, he confirmed it: “Hey, hey, hey, no way! If I’m not mistaken, that book should be the END book that Mard Geer always carries with him. How could it end up in this boy’s hands?”
“He must have defeated Mard Geer while we were all out. But no, that’s impossible! How could someone defeat that monster, Mard Geer?!”
Silver was deep in thought.
“Who are you…?”
As Silver pondered, Wendy and Carla exchanged a glance. Wendy felt an inexplicable familiarity with the boy as if he was a long-lost relative. The atmosphere around him, the air currents, felt warm and familiar to Wendy.
“Wendy, do you know this boy?” Carla, always protective, asked Wendy.
“No… I should be seeing him for the first time too, but for some reason, he feels very familiar, like an old acquaintance. Maybe we’ve met somewhere before?” Wendy replied, scratching her small, adorable cheek as she looked the boy over. She felt an intense familiarity but couldn’t place him.
“Is that so.”
“Then, may I ask who you are, mysterious boy with chestnut-red hair, who appeared in our guild uninvited?” Carla, spreading her white wings, placed herself protectively in front of Wendy, wary of any threat.
“Haha, white kitty, and everyone in Cait Shelter, there’s no need to be so tense.”
“My name is Evan Belsereon, a mage from Fairy Tail. I came to help when I noticed Cait Shelter was in trouble.”
The handsome boy with chestnut-red hair smiled at Carla’s wary gaze, revealing his identity. This boy was Evan Belsereon, who had just annihilated the heart of Tartaros.
Evan had returned Mira Jane and Seilah to the Fairy Tail guild after Mira absorbed Mard Geer’s soul. Then, he rushed to Cait Shelter, arriving just in time to prevent Tartaros from unleashing Nirvana on the world.
“I’m not just a white kitty! I have a name, it’s Carla…” Carla frowned, clearly disliking being referred to as a “white kitty,” which made her feel like an ordinary, non-talking cat.
“Okay, white kitty, Carla.”
Evan smiled brightly at Carla.
“You…” Carla was frustrated, disliking Evan’s casual attitude.
“You? You said you’re from the Fairy Tail mage guild?!” Still encased in ice, Robin Lu was shocked upon hearing Evan’s introduction.
“Isn’t there only one Fairy Tail guild in Fiore?” Evan replied, turning to Robin Lu.
“Is the Fairy Tail guild powerful?” Carla, seeing Robin Lu’s shocked expression, asked curiously.
“Yes! Unlike our Cait Shelter, Fairy Tail is a legitimate light guild, and it’s the strongest light guild on the continent of Ishgar!” Robin Lu explained, emphasizing Fairy Tail’s power.
“The strongest light guild?!”
Carla was stunned, feeling a bit of awe just from hearing Fairy Tail’s title as the strongest guild on the continent.
“The Fairy Tail guild…” Wendy’s eyes widened, feeling an inexplicable sense of closeness to the name.
“If you’re a Fairy Tail mage, you might be able to help me destroy Nirvana!”
“Listen, boy, the Nirvana I created is not invincible! It has a fatal flaw!”
“Look at Nirvana’s six legs, resembling those of a spider. Each leg contains a magic crystal that serves as a power converter. There are six of these crystals. Destroying them all at once will stop Nirvana from absorbing magic from the earth, thus destroying it!”
“But remember, these crystals must be destroyed simultaneously. If even one remains, the others will quickly regenerate, making it impossible to destroy Nirvana.”
“Four hundred years ago, when I created Nirvana, I feared it being destroyed, so I designed this ultimate defense. But now, it’s the barrier that torments me…”
“It’s up to you and your companions to save the world. Quickly, gather your comrades and simultaneously attack the six magic crystals…”
Robin Lu revealed Nirvana’s weaknesses to Evan, hoping Fairy Tail could destroy the ancient weapon.
Suddenly, a mission appeared:
Urgent Mission: Destroy Nirvana! Fulfilling Robin Lu’s wish to destroy the ancient weapon Nirvana will earn you a Ten-Year Mission Medal.
“Oh?”
Evan was surprised to see an opportunity to gain a reward while destroying Nirvana.
“Don’t worry~”
“I came here to help you destroy Nirvana.”
In high spirits, Evan smiled at Robin Lu and walked out of Cait Shelter, facing the gigantic Nirvana.
“Buzz!!”
As Evan stepped out, Nirvana began gathering immense magic power, targeting Cait Shelter.
In Evan’s view, Nirvana’s six legs were extracting magic from the earth, concentrating it into a terrifying magical cannon…
“Oh no!”
“Nirvana is preparing to attack!”
“Fairy Tail boy, take Wendy and flee. Then contact your comrades to destroy Nirvana as I explained!”
“As for me, don’t worry about this old man. I’m already dead, just Robin Lu’s spirit…”
Robin Lu, sweating, shouted nervously at Evan as he sensed Nirvana’s immense power.
“Gather my comrades? Even if you say that, Robin Lu, I have no way to do it!”
“I’m the only Fairy Tail mage here to support Cait Shelter~”
Evan stood calmly at the guild’s broken door, looking back at Robin Lu.
“What?!”
“You came alone for such a major issue?”
Robin Lu was stunned. He couldn’t understand Fairy Tail’s guild master’s decision.
That’s Nirvana! A super ancient weapon that could destroy the world, a highly dangerous magical tool!
Knowing this, how could Fairy Tail’s master send only one mage, and a young boy at that, to deal with it?!
Robin Lu was at a loss, unable to comprehend the guild master’s thought process. Or did he believe this boy alone could handle the crisis?
Unbeknownst to Robin Lu, Evan’s actions were self-initiated. Makarov, Fairy Tail’s master, was back at the guild, enjoying a drink and teasing the new staff, unaware of the looming battle.
“So this is the arrogance of the world’s top mage guild?”
Robin Lu smiled bitterly, knowing the mages of big guilds often carried an air of superiority. However, those who boasted the most were usually the weakest…
“If Fairy Tail only sent you, boy, then you should escape. Return to your guild, gather more mages, and destroy the six crystals as I said!”
Robin Lu shook his head, focusing on the urgency of the situation. He needed to ensure Evan and the others survived to gather help.
“You can just watch from there! I’ve got this.”
Evan, without looking back, reassured Robin Lu.
Fixing his gaze on Nirvana, Evan measured how much magic he needed to release.
“Fool! Don’t do anything reckless! Nirvana requires at least six powerful, synchronized mages to destroy. One person alone can’t do it. If it were possible, I would have destroyed it four hundred years ago!”
Robin Lu smiled bitterly. If Nirvana were easy to destroy, he would have done it centuries ago, not leaving it to endanger the world now.
Nirvana’s defense was strong, a moving town that minimized any magical impact. It could be defeated only by destroying the six crystals simultaneously, a task impossible for one person.
Urgent Mission: Single-handedly Stop Nirvana. Show Robin Lu the true extent of your power. Reward: Ten-Year Mission Medal.
Evan, about to act, paused, surprised by another mission offering a ten-year-level reward.
He couldn’t believe Robin Lu’s doubt had earned him an easy reward. Now, he was determined to show Robin Lu what he could do.
“Watch closely, Robin Lu…”
Evan, in high spirits, turned to Robin Lu with a kind smile.
The last time Evan had this look was when he took advantage of Zeref’s generosity!
He enjoyed dealing with these ancient beings.
“You spent four hundred years trying to destroy Nirvana. I will fulfill your wish…”
Evan promised Robin Lu, signaling he would destroy Nirvana for him and his clan.
“This child is kind-hearted but too arrogant!”
“Are all Fairy Tail mages this reckless? Their guild master must have poorly guided them. What a waste of a good kid…”
“If this kind-hearted boy dies because of Nirvana, my sins will grow heavier!”
Robin Lu couldn’t remember how many times he’d felt this bitterness, watching Evan with a mix of hope and resignation.
Even though Evan’s intention to destroy Nirvana was good, Robin Lu found his approach too reckless. He doubted one person could dismantle what he couldn’t in four hundred years.
“Buzz!!”
As Robin Lu despaired, Nirvana’s legs absorbed magic to their peak, aiming a massive dark magic cannon.
Robin Lu sweated, seeing Nirvana’s overwhelming power.
“Such strong magic! What is that? I’ve never seen anything so terrifying…”
Carla trembled, her face showing fear.
“Gulp~”
“That thing is dangerous…”
Wendy,
equally stunned, knew being hit by that would mean certain death.
“…”
Silver stood silently, arms crossed, since Evan entered, observing both Evan and the E.N.D. book he held.
“Run, boy! Take Wendy and flee while you can…”
Robin Lu urged Evan, knowing the imminent danger.
“Don’t worry! I’ve got this!”
Evan smiled at Robin Lu, his eyes glowing red…
“Inhale~”
Magic began converging towards Evan’s mouth…
“Rumble…”
As Evan started absorbing magic, the entire space groaned. The surrounding magic was drawn into Evan, creating a temporary magic vacuum.
“This is?!”
Wendy, behind Evan, was shocked, realizing why he felt familiar. He was also a Dragon Slayer!
Meanwhile…
On Nirvana, two figures observed Cait Shelter with glee.
“Destroying Cait Shelter, I wonder how much it’s worth?”
Franmal, an armored demon with one large eye, laughed, targeting Cait Shelter.
He was one of Tartaros’s Nine Demon Gates.
“Hey, Kyouka, isn’t Silver still at Cait Shelter? Should we really fire the cannon?”
Franmal turned to his companion, a skeletal figure in a black robe holding a staff, Kyouka, another of the Nine Demon Gates, known as the Necromancer for controlling the dead.
“It’s fine! Silver is already dead. As long as I’m here, he won’t die. Even if he does, we can find another suitable replacement…”
Kyouka’s face was emotionless, speaking coldly.
“If Silver dies, how much will we lose? How much money will we lose?”
“Whatever. This is your decision, not mine. Just explain to Mard Geer later…”
“Fire Nirvana Cannon!!”
As Franmal ordered, Nirvana’s gathered magic fired toward Cait Shelter.
Franmal didn’t know Mard Geer was already dead…
“Look at that beauty, I wonder how much it’s worth?”
Franmal smiled, anticipating Cait Shelter’s destruction.
“Sky Dragon’s… Roar!!”
At the same time, Evan opened his mouth, a massive magic circle appeared, unleashing a torrent of magic, shattering Silver’s ice and everything in its path…
