Fairy Tail: Starting with Fairy Queen Erza

These dragons, which were said to rival Acnologia, almost simultaneously withdrew their gaze.

For a time, those who needed to lie low went into hiding, those who needed to sleep remained asleep, those who needed to play dead played dead, and those who needed to accumulate strength continued to accumulate strength...

"'Black Dragon King' Acnologia?!"

"What a monster."

"However, no one in this world can always be the strongest!"

"A new Dragon King Festival will be held in the near future!"

"And the ultimate victor of this festival will surely be me, the son of the great Flame Dragon King Igniel, the Flame God Dragon Igniel."

Ignia, the son of the Flame Dragon King Ignir and known as the Flame God Dragon, suddenly revealed a ferocious smile and roared to the sky.

then……

There's no after that.

When Lü Bu was still alive...

No one dared to claim they possessed Lu Bu's bravery in his presence...

If Acnologia hadn't lacked mobility, and if the past four hundred years hadn't indeed weakened his strength, perhaps this century-long mission wouldn't have even existed.

The Kingdom of Fiore.

Magnolia town.

Within the Fairy Tail guild...

Ian and the others remained uneasy. Who knew what kind of disaster the battle between Irene and Selene, these two women standing at the pinnacle of the world of Asland, would bring to the entire continent of Ishgar?!

"Father..."

Just as Ian frowned, his expression filled with unease, Erza, as adorable as a pink dumpling, seemed to have received a message from Irene. She looked up at Ian and whispered:

"Mother, she just sent me a message. She asked me to tell you that there is good news and bad news."

"The good news is that the aura of that seductive and shameless Selene has attracted Acnologia, who was originally wandering near Mount Ling!"

"Selene was forced to retreat to Elentia to escape Acnologia's pursuit. For the time being, that seductive vixen won't bother you anymore, so please rest assured."

Erza gave a thumbs-up to the sky as she spoke, silently praising the great Lord Acnologia.

If the continent of Ishgar didn't have Acnologia's protection...

The five dragons that once ravaged the northern continent of Giltina may have long since left the northern continent and ruled the entire world of Esland.

After all, even now, the gaze of certain dragon gods is still fixed on the continent of Ishgar.

Of course, if it weren't for the dragons of the Northern Continent occasionally provoking Acnologia's nerves, making him acutely aware that he hadn't yet eliminated all the dragons in the world as planned...

Perhaps Acnologia has already gone mad, just as Zeref feared, transforming into the Wings of Despair, launching indiscriminate attacks and beginning its life-purification plan. Who knows?

For the people living in the world of Asland...

Only when these world-class monsters restrain each other can they gain enough breathing room in the cracks.

"The bad news is that, because of the actions of Selene and Acnologia, the dragons of the Northern Continent have taken notice of the continent of Ishgar!"

"They initially only guessed that you were on the continent of Ishgar, but now they have confirmed your whereabouts. Please be prepared at any time..."

Then, Erza told Ian the bad news.

"call……"

Once Ian was sure that Selene had left, he gently wiped the sweat from his forehead and plopped down on a stool next to the bar.

Selene has retreated, but the other dragons have discovered him?!

It's like escaping one tiger's den only to fall into another!

There's no peace and quiet for even a moment...

"Chairman Makarov..."

"Now you can feel my pain, right?"

"That's why I'm telling you..."

"I am not suitable to be the next guild master of Fairy Tail."

"Neither Selene nor Eileen, who just arrived, actually harbored much hostility towards me! You should be able to sense that..."

"Even so, the slightest conflict between them almost wiped us out without us even realizing it. This is the fighting power that stands at the pinnacle of this world."

"And in the distant northern continent of Kiltina..."

“There are at least five more beings on the same level as Selene…”

Ian paused here.

"Five?!"

"Are you kidding..."

Ian's words stunned all the mages in the Fairy Tail guild.

There are at least five more beings like Selene and Irene on other continents.

Haha, this is really the end...

However, for some reasons that cannot be explained...

"Among those five beings of the same level as Selene..."

"There are indeed some who are hostile to me."

Well, Ian was too embarrassed to say it...

Apart from Selene, the other five dragons all harbored some kind of deep-seated hatred towards him.

Let’s put it this way!

Whether it's Flame God Dragon or Water God Dragon...

There are also the Wood Dragon, Earth Dragon, and Metal Dragon. Don't be fooled by their current arrogance. They are revered as gods in the Northern Continent, protecting their respective lands and having their own cults or forces!

However, when these dragons were young, they were all beaten up by Ian.

Ian: "A century-old mission? I soloed it once four hundred years ago, and I beat Ignia so badly that her backside was covered in bruises. My record is documented."

"Even on this continent..."

“There is another potential enemy who is even stronger than Selene.”

Ian closed his eyes and calmed himself for a few seconds before speaking helplessly to Makarov beside him.

Ian finally revealed his relationship with the hero who had repeatedly saved him from danger, the great 'Black Dragon King' Acnologia.

Unfortunately, sometimes the enemy of my enemy is not my friend.

"Stronger than Selene?!"

"Ian, what have you been doing?"

Mrs. Macallo is numb.

"President, I know you won't abandon me."

Ian looked at Makarov and sighed.

Given Ian's trust and understanding of Makarov...

He could easily have revealed everything about the enemies and predicament he was currently facing...

No matter how terrifying the opponent, Makarov will not give up on him.

Makarov is only thinking about how to face this together with Ian!

This is a guarantee of Mrs. Macallo's character.

"Ugh……"

Makarov said nothing. He silently served Ian a glass of 'water of life' and gently patted Ian on the shoulder.

Drink up! Once you drink it, you'll forget everything...

Unfortunately, Makarov couldn't handle the problems Ian was facing either.

The moment the magical power was released from the mental constructs of Eileen and Selene, Makarov suddenly realized that he was as powerless as an infant.

To be honest, ever since Makarov became famous throughout the continent of Ishgar thanks to his unique giant magic, and was eventually awarded the title of one of the Ten Wizard Saints by the Magic Council...

He had forgotten how long it had been since he had faced such a helpless situation.

"Go Ian!"

"Ian, I will always support you in my heart."

"Ian, don't worry! You'll be alright..."

The other members of the guild also cast understanding and comforting glances at Ian.

If even Ian can't face an enemy, what can they possibly do?!

It seems there's nothing else that can be done besides chanting slogans.

"Father."

Erza looked at Ian, who was sitting at the bar with a dejected expression, her eyes filled with worry. She was afraid that her tall and mighty father would never recover.

Putting yourself in Erza's shoes, if you were Ian and suddenly discovered that those beings she once disregarded had grown to the point where she had to look up to them, and that there were quite a few of them, all harboring some hostility towards her, you might break down and never be able to recover.

"Enough with the nonsense! Today is the harvest festival, let's drink to our hearts' content!"

However, just as Erza was feeling worried and unsure how to comfort Ian, Ian, who was sitting at the bar, suddenly raised his glass high and shouted, "Today, everything is on me, Ian! Let the townspeople of Magnolia drink to their hearts' content with us!"

Hmm, who cares?! Just live one day at a time...

"Oh!!!"

"Long live Ian!!"

In an instant, the crowd gathered at the Fairy Tail guild, on the first floor of the venue, looked up and erupted in cheers that echoed through the sky…

Yes, the mages of their Fairy Tail guild are all optimists!
