Fairy Tail: You call this Celestial Magic?!

Chapter 294 All I Need to Do is Kill You (Please Subscribe!)

Makarov had recently met the up-and-coming Zeke Rein. Although they hadn't actually spoken, Makarov remembered the man's face vividly because he looked exactly like Mistgan.

At that time, Makarov felt very strange. After all, in his understanding, the counterpart of Mystogan in this world should also be called Jellal. Although he had never met him, Moen said that Erza knew Jellal in this world.

Makarov had always been wary of this. Erza had never seen Mystogan's true face, only that she knew Jellal, and neither of them had ever seen Jellal's true face either. Whether the two "Jeral" were identical individuals was still up for debate; perhaps they were just people with the same name.

There are indeed examples of counterparts in two worlds with different names, and one cannot make a judgment based solely on a name.

But now that I see Gerald's face, the answer is basically certain. They have the same name and the same face. Gerald and Mystogan are corresponding isotopes.

"In that case, there's definitely something wrong with that Zeke Rein," Makarov shouted, trying to bluff Gerald. After the old man finished speaking, he kept a close eye on Gerald's reaction.

"."

Upon hearing the name "Zek Rein," Gerald's facial expression changed visibly, leading Makarov to immediately conclude that the relationship between "Zek Rein" and Gerald was definitely not ordinary.

“That’s my twin brother.”

Gerald spoke with a sullen face and immediately gave his answer, appearing somewhat eager to refute, which already indicated a problem.

"Twin brother?"

Makarov narrowed his eyes and looked at Moen beside him.

“Mistgang does not have twin brothers.”

Moen immediately understood what Grandpa Makarov meant, and he said, "But whether this can be used as evidence is debatable."

The fact that even Grandpa Makarov wasn't the guild master of Fairy Tail in the Edolas world shows that the identities of people in the two worlds can be vastly different, to the point of being unbelievable.

Just because Geralt in that world didn't have a twin brother doesn't mean that Geralt in this world definitely doesn't have a twin brother either.

"Of course, the possibility is very high."

Makarov was more skeptical than trusting.

After he became suspicious of Zeke Rein, he immediately investigated the guy's background. Zeke Rein had fought his way out of the Magic Council's own magic school, becoming the strongest graduate. His resume was spotless, without any loopholes; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to enter the Council.

Even if Erza met Zeke Rein, she would find it difficult to truly equate Zeke Rein with the Jellal in front of her. She might easily believe the "twin brothers" theory, since the two men's identities and backgrounds are worlds apart.

However, Makarov clearly remembered that none of Zik Rein's personal records ever mentioned that he had a twin brother, and there was no related information whatsoever.

Is this normal? Even if Zeke Rein thought his brother was dead, he never mentioned it and there is no related information recorded. This is definitely not normal. Why would he need to hide it?

“Gerald, you react quickly on the spot, but you should have a plan in advance for this kind of thing. One lie after another will only make your flaws more and more obvious.”

Makarov made his judgment, which, although incredibly shocking, was undoubtedly the closest to the truth: the possibility that Zeke Rein was Gerald's other identity!
"."

Gerald remained silent and did not respond.

"Tsk, you're quite capable. On one hand, you used both kindness and threats to persuade a group of people to willingly build the Tower of Paradise for you, and on the other hand, you went to study at a school under the Council, rose all the way to the Council, and even obtained the title of one of the Ten Wizard Saints. I'm quite impressed with your time management skills."

Looking at Gerald in front of him, Moen understood what Grandpa Makarov meant, which surprised him greatly. That Zeke Rein was actually Gerald's other identity!
Moen had never met Zeke Rein, but he had heard of him. After all, he was already one of the "Ten Wizards" at a young age and had some fame. Many people felt indignant on his behalf because of this. At about the same age, Moen was clearly more qualified to become one of the "Ten Wizards", but the title was given to Zeke Rein.

However, Moen himself did not find it strange or dissatisfying. This Zeke Rein was a true member of the Magic Council, how could they be compared to their annoying Fairy Tail?

Furthermore, Moen doesn't need the title of "Ten Wizards of the Highest Ages" to enhance his prestige. On the contrary, the "Ten Wizards of the Highest Ages" needs Moen's participation to prove its worth, since Moen is famous for fighting the "Ten Wizards of the Highest Ages".

Looking back now, Moen feels that Joseph Pora was pushed up by the Magic Council to compete with Fairy Tail, but he couldn't withstand it, which instead made Moen and Laxus the "twin stars" and he could only regretfully leave the stage.

"Buzz!"

A surge of magical energy appeared, and another "Jeral" appeared in everyone's sight, standing beside Gerald.

"What is this?! How come there are two Geralds?!"

This scene surprised everyone, leaving them somewhat confused.

"So it's a body of longing, no wonder."

Upon seeing the suddenly appearing "Jeral," Moen immediately understood. This made sense; if he wasn't a thought entity, it would be difficult for Jellal to run between two places without revealing any flaws.

"Hahahaha! I really didn't expect this! Fairy Tail, you actually managed to go this far! But it's alright, as long as I kill you all, my secrets won't be exposed!"

With the two Geralds merged into one, Gerald, now at the peak of his power, became incredibly confident. He laughed arrogantly, and his gaze toward Moen and the others was as if he were looking at dead men.

"Stop making me laugh, okay?"

Moen's expression was strange and he was a little tense. He didn't understand where Gerald got the confidence to say such a thing. Who gave him the courage? Zeref? But this "R System" wasn't finished yet. Even Zeref couldn't save this guy.

According to Simon, Shu, Miliana, and Woolley, Jellal built the Tower of Paradise to resurrect Zeref. They wanted to rely on Zeref's power to rule and transform the world, thereby gaining true freedom.

Moen found this very difficult to understand; he couldn't comprehend the logic behind it at all. Were they even close to Zeref? What made them think Zeref would do as they wished?
Who is Zeref? He is the "super-powered Voldemort" of the "Aceland" world! He is a person whose name cannot even be mentioned, the legendary one who "bears the evil of this world"!
Zeref is the "progenitor of dark magic," having existed for 400 years. He is the most ferocious, powerful, and evil legendary dark magician in the history of the magic world, capable of creating terrifying monsters with ease, and possessing immense magical power.

Those legendary demons and powerful dark magic are all real. Among them are the demon "Deliora" that destroyed Gray's hometown and "Lalabai" that was taken in by Mirajane. They were all created by Zeref. This "source of evil" is not a fictional terrifying existence.

It wasn't until Simon and the others mentioned "resurrecting Zeref" that Moen understood why this mission could be so dangerous if not handled properly. It wasn't just about the "Tower of Paradise"; if Zeref were actually resurrected, that would be the real trouble. "What are you babbling about? So you think you're Jellal?!"

Jellal's arrogant declaration greatly displeased Natsu, who charged forward and unleashed a "Fire Dragon's Iron Fist" right away!
"boom!"

Gerald was sent flying backward and crashed into the wall of the Tower of Paradise.

"You're so gibberish, I thought you were so tough, but you're so weak."

Seeing that Jellal was sent flying with a single move, Natsu complained, "Just now, Moen and the Chairman Grandpa said he was one of the 'Ten Wizard Saints,' but this is all he's capable of?"
Amidst the dust and smoke kicked up by the impact, Gerald took off his coat and walked out unharmed, his expression still arrogant.

"Is this all the Dragon Slayer Magic, which is supposed to have terrifying destructive power, is capable of? These small fry should just back down."

Looking at Natsu, Jellal retorted immediately. He did indeed seem quite relaxed, having taken Natsu's "Fire Dragon's Iron Fist" without a scratch. This was deliberately creating psychological pressure on Natsu and the others, building "momentum" in the battle.

Seeing how easily Jellal faced Natsu, the others felt a chill, thinking that this guy truly lived up to his title as one of the "Ten Wizard Saints." However, they weren't afraid, because Moen and Guild Master Makarov were right beside them.

"Mount! Guild Master Makarov! You'd better act quickly! Jellal is incredibly powerful! Natsu is no match for him!"

Simon shouted anxiously from the side. He knew Gerald was powerful, and he pinned his hopes on Moen and Makarov. He believed that as long as the two of them made a move, they would definitely be able to defeat Gerald!
"Don't look down on me!"

Simon's words immediately provoked Natsu. He bared his teeth and shouted at Simon. Natsu, who was never inferior to anyone in his life, was a battle maniac who was so confident that he dared to challenge Moen. Being looked down upon like this directly ignited Natsu's fighting spirit.

The stronger the enemy, the more it fuels Natsu's fighting spirit; Natsu is currently burning with passion.

"Buzz!"

Natsu's magical power erupted, and the starlight of Leo Minor showered upon him, along with the power of his own "Dragon Slayer Magic," instantly elevating his entire aura.

"New-style Protoss Magic"

After all, Gerald had actually attended classes at the magic school under the Magic Council, and Zeke Rein had been active outside, so he naturally knew the power of Moen and his "new-style celestial magic".

"meteor!"

This time, Gerald didn't wait any longer and launched a direct attack. Although he was quite confident in his strength, the enemy was numerous, and he didn't intend to fight a protracted battle and be worn down for nothing.

In this situation, even his original four subordinates have sided with the enemy, and the other miscellaneous soldiers are useless and cannot even wear down the enemy. He really needs to finish this battle quickly.

Unfortunately, the incident happened suddenly, and his biggest helper, Ultear, was still in the Magic Council and couldn't come back to help him at all.

The "Dark Guild" with whom they had previously established contact would naturally not stay here indefinitely; he was truly the only combatant in the entire "Tower of Paradise."

But it doesn't matter, he's enough on his own. As long as he kills these people, even if he destroys the Tower of Paradise, it's fine. The tower can be rebuilt, and at least he can keep his key identity as Zeke Rein.

"boom!"

Jellal's figure vanished in a flash, faster than anyone could imagine. His body streaked like a meteor, rapidly approaching Natsu. Natsu had no time to react before Jellal grabbed him by the neck and pinned him to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.

"Buzz!"

However, Gerald's figure retreated instantly, because Erza had already slashed at him with her sword, forcing him to temporarily avoid the attack.

"Natsu! Are you alright?! Get back! This is my opponent!"

Erza glanced anxiously at Natsu, who had been slammed into the ground. Jellal was clearly her opponent, but Natsu was the first to rush in. She had just tried to help him, but Moen held him back, and as a result, Natsu got a good beating.

"You still have the mind to care about others? Take care of yourself first!"

Erza hadn't even had a chance to get a clear look at Natsu's injuries when Jellal attacked again, his speed was ridiculously fast.

However, Erza was also quite fast, and Jellal didn't find any openings in her defenses. In fact, Jellal wasn't particularly good at close combat; he was a bit overconfident and dared to charge right up to Erza's face.

"Buzz!"

Erza swung her twin swords, her speed not much slower than Jellal's. Erza, who often sparred with Moen and even asked Moen to use "teleportation" to train her reaction speed, felt no pressure at all when facing Jellal's "Meteor".

Moreover, her animal-hide armor, known as the "Flying Armor," is also speed-type, and when she wielded her twin swords, Jellal was forced to retreat, not daring to get close to Erza.

Both of them sparred with Moen, but Erza clearly learned and grew much faster, while Natsu just got beaten up. However, his greatest strength is that he's indestructible.

"Cough cough cough! You wretched fellow!"

Natsu got up from the ground, his whole body blazing with anger. He only felt a sharp pain in his throat from being choked, but he couldn't feel anything else. However, if an ordinary person had been attacked like that, their neck would probably have been broken.

"This Gerald really wants to kill someone."

Watching Erza and Jellal locked in fierce combat, Moen spoke to Grandpa Makarov, his eyes now filled with a dangerous glint.

Moen sent Natsu, this tough-skinned guy, first to test Gerald. It seems that Gerald is indeed going all out without any scruples.

"Is it being controlled?"

Makarov frowned. The matter involved Zeref, and the danger was quite high. He couldn't help but want to take action, hoping to eliminate the problem once and for all and prevent future troubles.
