"Dragon Slayer's Secret Art: Crimson Lotus Exploding Flame Blade!"

"Dragon Slayer's Secret Art: Karma Demon Iron God Sword!"

"Dragon Slayer's Secret Art: Shattering Light - Sky Drill!"

Natsu, Gajeel, and Wendy unleashed their respective Dragon Slayer Secret Arts, their attacks striking the meteor. The meteor exploded in the sky like a firework.

"What? The meteor was destroyed!"

Natsu, Gajeel, and Wendy landed back on the ground, surrounding Irene, who was in her dragon form, from four directions.

It might have seemed ridiculous for four humans to surround a dragon, but that was the reality of the situation. Irene, her voice harsh, said, "Don't think that destroying the meteor means you've won!"

"You are merely humans, after all!"

Erza looked at Irene. "Aren't you human as well? And you hate your dragon form. Why don't you turn back into a human..."

Irene was momentarily speechless, cut off by Erza's words.

...

"Acnologia is here. Have those five dragons already lost?" The Magic Council's chairman, Hyberion, said.

Councilman Wolfheim shook his head. "They must have been injured."

Wolfheim was one of the four strongest mages on the continent, also known as the Four Gods of Ishgar.

Acnologia and the dragons' battle was witnessed by everyone. In their hearts, they all believed Acnologia was stronger.

"He's injured, and he still dares to come here? He doesn't take us seriously!" said Org, another member of the Four Gods of Ishgar. He was ranked third and was known for his bad temper.

"Let us meet the Black Dragon of the Apocalypse."

<><><><>

Acnologia's roar reached their ears, and soon, they saw his figure.

The Magic Council's Rune Knights attacked Acnologia. He roared, flapping his wings. The resulting wind was like sharp blades, destroying the surrounding buildings and sending the knights flying.

"Don't be reckless!"

Wolfheim transformed into a large beast-man and charged at Acnologia. Acnologia swatted him away as if he were a mosquito.

Councilman Warrod quickly used his plant magic to catch Wolfheim.

Wolfheim coughed up blood, staring at Acnologia in disbelief. "He's so powerful.."

"My Bloodsucking Magic is useless, too!"

Hyberion, who had transformed into a form similar to that of the vampire from the pirate world, said with a grim expression.

Jura summoned countless vines and rocks, but they were instantly shattered by Acnologia.

Unless it was Dragon Slayer Magic or an extremely powerful, high-level magic, Acnologia was practically immune to other types of magic.

Acnologia roared, "I need magic power..."

He opened his mouth, sucking in the magical power of those around him. To mages, it was as if their life force was being drained. The feeling was similar to when a Devil Fruit user fell into the sea.

Even after devouring the souls of the Nine Demon Gates, Acnologia was still close to losing control.

He didn't even know if anyone had tried to stop him. The current Wizard Saints might have been strong, but compared to Acnologia, they were several levels weaker than even the weakest of the Spriggan 12 and Zeref.

To him, they were like ants. The Wizard Saints were helplessly and ignominiously defeated.

The current chairman of the Magic Council, Hyberion, lay on the ground, in disbelief. "Is this Acnologia? How can we defeat such a monster? Is this the end of humanity?"

<><><><>

"Roar!"

The terrifying roar shook the very earth. Although he was just one individual, he was the strongest force in this world.

"The Black Dragon... Acnologia..."

"So big!"

Many of those present had never seen Acnologia before. They had only heard of him. And the reason was simple: most of those who had seen him were dead.

Acnologia looked at Irene, who had transformed into a dragon. He sensed the presence of Dragon Slayer Magic on her, and also on Natsu, Wendy...

"I didn't expect to find Dragon Slayers here. You should all die!" Acnologia hated dragons the most. His family and people had been destroyed by dragons. Dragon Slayers would eventually become dragons, and he was the Dragon King, destined to eliminate all dragons.

"So, it's you. I didn't expect you to still be alive. The one who gave humans the power of Dragon Slaying, the Creator of Dragon Slayer Magic, the Dragon Queen..."

Irene was the creator of Dragon Slayer Magic. Acnologia had also been a Dragon Slayer once. They were from the same era, so it was natural that he knew Irene.

Both were legendary figures among Dragon Slayers. Now, they faced each other in their dragon forms. The two dragons clashed.

Towns were completely destroyed by the shockwaves of their battle. Fortunately, Fairy Tail was located in a remote area of Magnolia. Only their guild members and the client were present.

After just a few exchanges, Irene was already struggling. Acnologia's attacks left her scales torn, and dragon blood rained down.

Although they were both Dragon Slayers who had transformed into dragons, her strength was still far inferior to Acnologia's.

Especially now that Acnologia had absorbed a large amount of magical power, his strength had increased significantly.

However, to ensure that he could kill Ian, Acnologia decided to absorb even more magical power.

"Pa!"

In mid-air, Acnologia seized an opportunity and kicked Irene.

Boom!

Irene plummeted from the sky.

"Ugh... Aaaahhh!"

Irene spat out a mouthful of dragon blood. Before she could even get up, Acnologia landed, stomping on her.

"You are too weak. Become my power!!" Acnologia opened his mouth wide, beginning to devour Irene's dragon power.

Although it wouldn't significantly increase Acnologia's power, he needed a large quantity.

Dragon power was a great supplement to Acnologia, especially the dragon power of Irene, who could already transform into a dragon. If he absorbed Irene's dragon power and Zeref's soul, he could then go and settle the score with that damn demon.

Irene's dragon power was visibly being absorbed by Acnologia. Nearby, August, who was fighting Gildarts, suddenly warned, "It's not good! We can't let her dragon power be absorbed. Otherwise, no one will be able to stop Acnologia. Your Majesty did this to obtain Fairy Heart and have an endless supply of magical power!"

"Only then would we have a chance to defeat Acnologia. This was the purpose behind the founding of the Alvarez Empire. In other words, we don't need to fight now. Gildarts, stop this!"

Everyone's expression changed. But there was nothing they could do. Suddenly, golden lightning fell from the sky, striking Acnologia. He stumbled, and his absorption of Irene's dragon power was interrupted. A voice called out.

"Yo, we haven't been gone that long, and the guild's already been destroyed."

"Fire Dragon's Brilliant Flame!"

While Acnologia was staggered, Natsu appeared behind him, above his head. He combined the flames in his left and right hands, creating a massive, burning fireball that he hurled at Acnologia. The explosion sent Acnologia tumbling forward, and Irene was freed.

"Laxus!"

Natsu was also surprised. Golden hair, a lightning bolt scar over his left eye, the guild mark on his left chest, and earphones. It was Laxus, the strongest mage in Fairy Tail after Gildarts and Makarov.

"I discovered the five dragons fighting Acnologia by the sea. I knew something was wrong with the guild... They're all dead, Natsu..."

"Iron Dragon's Club!"

Gajeel formed a massive iron club, dozens of meters long, and swung it at Acnologia. He had just been sent rolling by Natsu's attack and hadn't regained his balance. He was struck by the club and sent flying like a baseball.

"It's okay. Igneel and the others told us. Even without Acnologia, they would have disappeared... They just wanted to buy us some time."

Natsu said with a smile, but everyone knew that he, Gajeel, and even Wendy were deeply saddened.

"We're useless..." Gajeel said.

"Grandeeney wouldn't want to see us cry. We can only defeat Acnologia..." Wendy wiped her tears.

Acnologia, enraged, said, "Did you think that just because of this level of magic, you could limit my actions? Magic is useless against me!"

"Dragon Slayer's Secret Art: Crimson Phoenix Blade!"

Natsu, using his strongest attack, shrouded his entire body in compressed flames, transforming himself into a blade as he charged towards Acnologia.

Boom!

"Aaaahhh!"

Acnologia screamed in pain. Natsu's attack had caused him minor injury. Acnologia, furious, shouted at Natsu.

"Dragon Slayer's Secret Art: Thunder Dragon's Firing Hammer!"

Laxus transformed his body into lightning, appearing behind Acnologia in an instant.

He gathered a large amount of golden lightning in his fist and struck Acnologia, sending him crashing to the ground and creating a large crater.

<><><><>

"Amazing! Are Fairy Tail mages really this strong?" August was shocked as he watched Natsu and the others.

The mages of the Alvarez Empire generally looked down on the mages of Ishgar.

But now, it seemed that the mages of Ishgar were not as weak as they had thought. However, he then realized that they were Dragon Slayers who had traveled through time, as well as Irene's daughter and his own uncle.

"Laxus, welcome home!"

The demonized Mirajane also came to Laxus's side.

As one of the guild's strongest S-Class mages, there were rumors of a relationship between them. Others were afraid of Laxus.

But the demonized Mirajane looked at him with a strange, almost admiring look. If Lucy were here, with her imagination, she would probably say, "There's something going on between them."

"Mm, I'm back..." Laxus replied softly. Then he looked at Erza. "Erza, there's someone else... We met on the way."

...

"It really hurts, you little bugs!"

Acnologia stood up again, his aura growing even stronger. Everyone could sense his anger.

Time and time again, he had been knocked down by those he considered Ants. It was humiliating. He hadn't wanted to waste energy or let these Dragon Slayers escape.

That's why he hadn't been serious at first. But now, these little bugs had actually managed to injure him.

Seeing Acnologia, who had suffered so many powerful magical attacks yet was still unharmed, everyone's expression changed.

Acnologia's body was surrounded by dense, dark orbs of light.

These dark orbs transformed into beams of light, indiscriminately covering an area of thousands of meters.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Each dark orb that exploded was comparable to a powerful spell. Acnologia's magical power was too strong. His powerful dragon power, when used to cast magic, made it impossible to resist.

"Seven Stars Sword..."

Seven beams of light shot towards them, but they were blocked by seven other shooting star-like beams. A figure wearing a mask and a cloak appeared before them.

Everyone cried out, "Mystogan!"

"No, isn't Mystogan in that world? Then he's... Jellal..."

"Erza!" Jellal looked at the stunned Erza, who tearfully nodded. "Jellal..."

"That's great, Miss Erza..."

Wendy said softly.

Laxus, displaying a rare passion, roared, "Let's save the reunion for later. Dragon Slayers, let's slay some dragons..."

"Ooooohhh!"

Gajeel and Natsu shouted like monkeys, jumping up and down. Erza and Mirajane spoke, "Let him see the power of Fairy Tail..."

"Iron Dragon's Club!"

"Fire Dragon's Iron Fist!"

The Dragon Slayers attacked with all their might, not giving Acnologia a chance to react. Although their attacks were practically useless against him, Natsu roared, his fist burning with flames.

He punched Acnologia hard. Although their power was decent, to Acnologia, with his near-immunity to magic and powerful body, it was like being slapped.

"Iron Dragon's Sword!"

Gajeel joined his hands, forming a massive iron sword that he swung at Acnologia. Although he didn't take any real damage, it still stung a little.

"Bastards!"

Acnologia opened his mouth, roaring.

"Full-Body Take Over!"

"Demon: Fallen Angel Lucifer!"

Boom!

Mirajane's body radiated immense magical power, and her form slowly began to change. She spread her hands, and a dazzling purple-black light shone.

When the light faded, a fallen angel of extreme beauty, clad in a gorgeous purple-black, form-fitting battle armor and with three pairs of black wings, floated in mid-air. A golden halo adorned her head.

Black, shining feathers fell to the ground, disappearing into light. She looked absolutely stunning.

"Heavenly Armor!"

Erza also unleashed the armor she could only use after releasing her Second Origin. Because it consumed so much magical power, it was said that no one had ever been able to wield it for long. She had almost never used it.

But now was clearly not the time to hold back. This armor was her strongest, far surpassing her Lightning Empress, Sea King, Flame Empress, Adamantine, Wind God... and other armors in power, and its consumption was also the greatest.

She wore a crown-like headdress, her long hair tied back in twin ponytails. She wore a six-sided, three-dimensional lion's head pauldron on her shoulder, and a long, flowing, ankle-length sash that resembled a heavenly robe.

Her upper body, arms, and waist were covered in cloth armor, while her legs were clad in knightly greaves. She wielded a sword and a halberd. This was her most ornate armor.

"Soul Extinction!"

Mirajane joined her hands, unleashing a flash of light comparable to a dragon's roar.

If Ian were here, he would definitely recognize the similarities between her Demon and Fallen Angel forms and his own Second and Third Releases.

"Heavenly Armor, Starfall!"

Erza swung her twin swords, sending crescent moon-shaped slashes towards Acnologia. They were almost on par with the slashes of a master swordsman in the One Piece world.

"So beautiful..."

Seeing Mirajane and Erza's transformations, Laxus and Mystogan, or rather, Jellal, couldn't help but blush and compliment them.

"Lightning Dragon's Halberd!"

"Nine Heavenly Stars!"

But they couldn't fall behind. Laxus raised a halberd made of lightning and hurled it at Acnologia. Jellal summoned nine dazzling stars from the sky, which descended upon their foe.

"Absolute Zero World!"

Gray also unleashed a power comparable to Aokiji's Ice Age, freezing everything in its path.

"Karma Demon's Iron Spiral!"

"Shattering Light - Sky Drill!"

Gajeel leaped into the air, holding a gigantic black iron drill. A fierce wind gathered in the air, forming a penetrating spear.

"Evil Explosion!"

At this time, August had his hair standing on end, his skin red with white stripes. This was his strongest combat form. He raised his staff, unleashing several attacks at Acnologia.

"Enchant: Detonate!"

Irene also waved her staff, enchanting Acnologia's body with an explosive spell.

It was a pity or a blessing that her power to control dragons was useless, otherwise she wouldn't have needed to use such a method.

"Full Break!"

Gildarts shattered the ground beneath him, unleashing his ultimate Crush magic. The ground turned to dust. Even August was sweating bullets, not having used his full power.

"A Touch to Extinguish All!"

A transparent pillar of light struck Acnologia, and space itself seemed to fracture.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Almost everyone unleashed their strongest attacks. After all, they were facing the Dragon King of the Apocalypse.

All the areas shrouded in black light were shattered. August and Irene quickly retreated. After a while, the light gradually faded, revealing a massive hole in the ground.

Acnologia stood there...

<><><><>

"No way..."

Everyone was dumbfounded. Igneel and the other dragons had sacrificed their lives, yet they had failed to defeat Acnologia. Now, they had unleashed their strongest attacks.

Yet, he still stood there unharmed.

Was this the power of the Dragon King of the Apocalypse?

"Nothing is impossible. He's just stronger than us." August said. He understood that such an outcome was highly unlikely.

Acnologia was too powerful. He was a being that completely surpassed them. They even doubted if Zeref, even with Fairy Heart, could defeat him.

An endless supply of magical power was simply providing Acnologia with an endless supply of food. August seemed to have made up his mind.

"Irene, I will open a path for you. You must take them and escape. After all, they are also family."

"August..." Irene was surprised, looking at him. She didn't know what August was planning. When faced with a powerful enemy, people often make certain choices.

Even if resistance was futile, it took courage to fight back. But choosing to sacrifice oneself to attack the enemy required even greater courage.

"Ever since I was born, I possessed immense magical power. Because of this, I was abandoned and shunned... When I was on the verge of death, His Majesty saved me. So, even if I have to give up my life, I will do it for His Majesty."

"Disperse, along with my life!" August began to chant. Irene's eyes widened.

"This is... the ancient magic that evaporates living beings' blood and melts the earth, Ars Magia!"

"The price of using this magic is one's own life." Irene understood. Now that she and August were facing Acnologia, they were no match for him. Continuing to fight would only lead to death.

And, recalling the story Mavis and Zeref had told, she guessed that August might be... Then, the members of Fairy Tail were their family. He had to buy Zeref time.

So, he chose to use this suicidal attack, hoping to heavily injure the enemy. Perhaps this was their only chance. Having made her decision, Irene gently touched the ground with her staff.

Gray's expression turned serious. He immediately knew what August was planning. It was similar to his master Ur's Iced Shell.

It was a spell that sacrificed one's own life. This type of magic was often incredibly powerful. Acnologia, sensing the danger, flapped his wings and charged towards August.

"Foolish human, did you think you could kill me with a forbidden spell? Let me show you the true power of the Dragon King!" Acnologia roared, opening his jaws wide.

Everyone watched in horror. They had almost forgotten that although Acnologia was in dragon form, he was originally a Dragon Slayer. He could devour any magic, including that of other Dragon Slayers.

But they also understood that August's goal wasn't to defeat Acnologia, but to buy time for Zeref.

A terrifying explosion erupted in the clouds, creating a mushroom cloud that painted the sky a bloody red. The shockwave from the explosion destroyed the clouds.

The resulting blast swept across the land, destroying everything in its path.

The earth trembled violently, cracking under the strain. August's magic was dispelled. This was a forbidden spell of self-destruction on par with Iced Shell.

However, after sacrificing his life, August's attack was dispelled by Acnologia, and the shockwaves from the blast alone razed the town of Magnolia to the ground.

Fortunately, it was on the coast, so most of the blast went out to sea, creating a tsunami.

<><><><>

At this time, inside the Fairy Tail guild.

"August sacrificed himself..."

"What?" Mavis was shocked. He had just learned that August was his son, and now he was dead.

But given August's age, his lifespan was likely coming to an end anyway.

"It's almost time. It's time to absorb Fairy Heart and leave this world."

Zeref walked towards Mavis, who was sealed in the Lacrima crystal. The seal on the crystal shattered, and Mavis's body fell out.

Then, Mavis's fingers twitched. Zeref and Natsu both widened their eyes in surprise. Soon, Mavis slowly opened her eyes and stood up.

"I'm alive..."

The First Master looked at her hands, in disbelief. Zeref and Natsu were also stunned, especially Zeref. He had been the one to curse Mavis, so how could she still be alive? Mavis immediately conjured a set of clothes, covering herself.

Zeref, though shocked, quickly composed himself. "It's surprising that you're alive, even though your life was taken by the curse. Perhaps this is the power of Ankhseram, the God of Life and Death."

"Zeref..."

"Although I'm happy to see you alive after nearly a century, I still need to take Fairy Heart." Zeref said, appearing behind Mavis and embracing her, transferring Fairy Heart to himself.

"Aaaahhh!" Mavis screamed in pain, looking at Zeref with anguish.

"Don't look at me like that. And don't pity me. Pity yourself. I'm going to start over. But you will continue to struggle in this world. I will return to 400 years ago, when my parents and my cute younger brother were still alive. I will not become the Black Wizard. Nor will Acnologia appear. That way, I can save the entire world."

Zeref released Mavis, who collapsed to the ground.

But Ankhseram's curse was not so easily undone.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have spent so many years and so much effort trying to kill himself. She was only weakened from having her magical power drained.

She would recover soon enough. Zeref spread his arms, his magical power surging outwards like waves, affecting everyone. They all felt the immense power.

"!!!"

"This is..." Makarov's expression changed drastically. The members of Fairy Tail who had been transported to the guild also felt a sense of foreboding.

Irene, too, smiled. "Your Majesty, you've succeeded?"

....

....

"Zeref... He really did such a cruel thing to his own son. Following his father to attack his mother." Ian said, his voice calm.

Before him, in mid-air, a child of about one year old had formed, with short blond hair.

He looked somewhat similar to Mavis and Zeref. This was August as a child.

In the world of Fairy Tail, both Ain's Rewind and Bonney's Age-altering magic could turn people into children. Even Im's Time-Time Fruit could probably do the same.

This was the chance he had given August to start over. But he hadn't done it for nothing. He had used Brannish's Memory Magic to seal his memories. He would regain them as he grew older.

"Wah, wah..."

Clearly, the infant August was well-behaved, waving his little hands at Ian. But in an instant, he was held by a golden figure.
