Fairy Tail: My Magic is Yugi Muto's Deck

Chapter 620 The Dragon's Cry: An Even More Desperate Crisis

As the Celestial Spirit King's Garment was completed, starlight flowed, and the Celestial Spirit King's signature Star Greatsword appeared in Lucy's hands.

"This force—"

Lucy was horrified and staggered back two steps, her hands gripping the Star Sword trembling slightly.

The immense energy, far exceeding that of any previous Celestial Armor, was continuously gushing forth from within his body.

Under normal circumstances, Lucy could easily withstand the onslaught of this energy, but summoning the Celestial King had almost exhausted all her magic power, and she was now completely unable to bear the power of the Celestial King's Robe.

Thus, the Celestial King's Robe, which should have enabled a leap in combat power, instead became a burden, like a heavy mountain pressing down on her, making it hard for her to breathe!

"No, no, the current Vadashi is completely unable to control this power!"

Beads of sweat trickled down Lucy's fair and flawless forehead. Even though she gritted her teeth and persevered, squeezing out every last drop of her potential, no miracle occurred.

She could only hold on for a few seconds before her legs went weak from the weight of the Starry Sky Greatsword she was holding, and she fell backward uncontrollably.

The Star Spirit King's Robe, which had been painstakingly assembled, flickered and overflowed with starlight, showing signs of collapse.

How could this be—we were just one step away from defeating Animus—

The field of vision changed rapidly as the body fell, from the ground to the Animus, and then to the sky dyed red by the setting sun.

Lucy turned pale and closed her eyes in despair.

However, the expected pain of falling to the ground did not come as anticipated.

On the contrary, a strong, reassuring touch came from my back.

Lucy's heart skipped a beat. She slowly opened her eyes and turned around to see familiar and reliable faces.

"you----"

That's right, it was her friends who reached out at the same time and held her firmly in place!

"Lu-chan, don't forget, this isn't a battle you're fighting alone~" Levy smiled and winked.

"You're right, I won't allow someone to steal all the limelight!" Kana replied with a smile.

"I, I will fight alongside Lucy!" Wendy's bright eyes were filled with determination.

"Although I don't have powerful magic to defeat Animus, I can still transfer all the remaining magic to you."

Eclair took a deep breath, maintaining her position of supporting Lucy.

hum!

The Fairy Tail emblem branded on the back of his hand immediately emitted a warm, gentle light that was intense but not blinding.

"And us too!" Xia Lulu and Mengmeng shouted in unison.

Magic responded to their will, and bound by their Fairy Tail crests, it transformed into streams of warmth flowing into Lucy's body.

This situation is somewhat similar to the entire guild on Sirius Island concentrating their magic power on Chess.

However, their enemies at the time were the black dragon Acnologi and the sky dragon Osiris summoned by Chase, while Lucy's team's enemies were the crystal dragon Animus and the Celestial King summoned by Animus.

The enemy is correct, summoning the boss is correct, the partner is correct —

In a sense, Lucy perfectly recreated the scene of Chase, her adopted brother.

Unfortunately, Lucy didn't notice this flaw at the time, let alone comment on it.

As everyone poured their magic into it, the Celestial King's Robe solidified again, and the oppressive weight that had enveloped his entire body vanished without a trace.

"It's so heartwarming, this is the magic of everyone—"

Lucy slowly regained her balance, her dejected expression vanishing. "Thanks!"

"Then let Animus witness firsthand the true power of us fairy mages!"

When the girl looked up at Animus again, her slightly narrowed gaze exuded an unstoppable aura.

"Yes!!!" His companions behind him nodded emphatically.

At the same time, an angry dragon roar resounded.

Animus struggled and gradually broke free from the Celestial King's petrification magic.

A strong wind, carrying the dragon's ferocious and savage aura, rushed towards them, but Lucy remained unfazed, raising her Star Greatsword high.

"Measuring the sky, opening up the firmament."

"The stars that fill the sky shine their brilliance before me."

"The Four Books of Astrology, in the name of the Lord of the Stars, command all eighty-eight stars of the heavens—"

As Lucy chanted her magic, a dazzling star map array suddenly unfolded before everyone, displaying special effects of celestial stars.

Unlike the legendary super magic star map that transforms into a meteor shower and crashes into the enemy, the stars in the sky trace paths in the air and disappear into the Star Greatsword, radiating a colorful chaotic brilliance!

In that instant, Lucy, supported by her companions, stepped forward and swung her sword with all her might at Animus.

"Full Sky Star Chart Unleashed - The King's Judgment!!"

Animus had just broken free from the petrification magic when his vision was completely enveloped by the chaotic slash that encompassed all eighty-eight stars in the sky.

The overwhelming aura of danger sent shivers down the dragon's spine, and its blood nearly froze.

Driven by instinct, Animus extended his claws, attempting to catch the unavoidable slash.

boom!!!

The moment they made contact, the dragon claw shattered, and blood splattered everywhere.

Animus’s proud dragon scales and muscles couldn’t even withstand half a second before his two palms exploded on the spot!

"No, impossible! I am a dragon, how could I possibly be defeated by mere human ants!!"

Animus roared to the sky, and images of Acnologia's massacre at the Dragon King Festival flashed before his eyes.

Under the dual stimulation of excruciating pain that reached its very soul and the fear of being killed by humans, it forced out magic power even though it should have reached its limit, summoning countless red prismatic crystals at the severed hand!

The red crystals multiplied rapidly, not only forcefully blocking the Star Slash, but also breaking the stalemate after a brief pause, gradually pushing the Star Slash back!

The pressure immediately fell on Lucy and the others.

A fierce wind tore through the earth, whipping up a storm of loose rocks that stung everyone's cheeks and left scratches on their skin.

However, when it comes to nostalgia, Fairy Tail really has no rivals.

The more desperate they are, the more they can unleash a power called bond that transcends their physical limits!

"Damn it, we... we need to get back to the guild and be with everyone so we don't lose here!!"

Lucy took the lead, followed by Cana and the others who attacked simultaneously.

"Drink up!!" *n

With a dazzling golden light, the Star Slash instantly surged several times in power, shattering the nearby red crystal and closing in on Animus once again with overwhelming force!

In the blink of an eye, the Star Slash shattered the last crystal wall, which exploded amidst Animus's terrified and unwilling screams.

Boom!!

The explosion was deafening, sending crystal shards flying everywhere.

This time, there were no more surprises.

As the smoke and dust cleared and the commotion subsided, the charred Animus lay on the ground, like a giant, burnt-out tree, as if it would vanish into thin air at any moment.

"I—I haven't—exterminated you human ants yet—"

Animus was barely breathing; he struggled several times but couldn't move his body no matter what he did. "I haven't—completely dominated this world—"

"That kind of thing was wrong from the start."

Supported by her friends, Lucy, covered in wounds, slowly walked over.

Although they were dangerous individuals who had to be eliminated, Lucy's eyes still flashed with a hint of reluctance when she looked at Animus, whose life was about to be cut off.

She thought of Natsu, who always mentioned Igneel; she thought of Bahamut, who had a cold and disdainful expression but would stand up against the Moon Dragon when the guild was in crisis; and she thought of Chesgo's card spirit, Mr. Gandora, and Mr. Red-Eyes Black Dragon.

"Dragons and humans can clearly coexist peacefully and become good friends."

This is a fact, and it is also the most harmonious way to get along.

Unfortunately, Animus, who came from the opposition, couldn't understand or listen to anything.

Even at this point, it still only wanted to exterminate humanity, until—

Faint footsteps sounded, and a familiar girl appeared in the gray-white vision.

"Sangya—" Animus instantly saw hope.

As long as, as long as I can use the Dragon Soul Technique again to hide inside Sangya's body and survive, I might have a chance to make a comeback in the future!

"Your Majesty, there's something I've wanted to tell you for a long time."

Sanya gripped the hem of her clothes tightly, tears welling up in her eyes.

It's unclear whether they were unaware of Animus's thoughts, or whether they knew but chose not to resist.

After a few seconds of silence, she mustered her courage, looked up at the collapsing Animus, and forced a gentle smile: "Thank you for your guidance all this time, and—for raising me."

Upon hearing this, Animus was taken aback, and the Dragon Soul Technique he was secretly preparing abruptly stopped.

The girl's smile reminded it of many things from the past: escaping Acnologia's clutches together, munching on grass roots to catch monsters, arriving at the ruins of the once-great Kingdom of Stella, and gazing at the stars together in the dead of night.

Sanya was raised by Animus; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say she was his adopted daughter.

At first, I only saw her as a vessel for survival, but why do I feel so warm when I see her smile?

A feeling he had never noticed before began to grow deep within him. Animus was unwilling to admit it, but he did not continue to use the Dragon Soul Technique.

Celestial Spirit King, you are mistaken. I do not distrust others, nor am I loved.

"Sangya, this is the first time I've ever seen you smile—"

Tears of regret streamed down the shattered dragon scales. After uttering these words, Animus slowly closed his eyes, letting his body turn to ashes and scatter with the wind.

"This is also the first time I've ever seen a dragon's tears," Sanya said softly.

Strands of hair fell down, obscuring the girl's face, making it impossible to discern her expression.

Only when the Samsung soldiers and the soldiers of the Kingdom of Stella arrived from afar did Sonya suppress her emotions, wipe her eyes, and turn to look at Lucy and the others.

"Fairy Tail mages, thank you very much."

"His Majesty—he deceived the people, deceived me, and even deceived himself. He not only harmed many people but also wanted to start a war. His crimes are unforgivable."

"But to me, he's like family."

Looking at Lucy's team supporting each other, Sonja's eyes were full of longing. "If I could, I really want to be like you, relying on each other and moving forward on the right path."

Lucy and the others were still reeling from the joy of defeating the dragon and were somewhat taken aback by the sudden praise.

"Oh, no, we just did what we were supposed to do." Lucy scratched her head sheepishly.

Cana, like a good buddy, sidled up to her, hooked her arm around her shoulder, and laughed, "After all, we're mages from Fairy Tail~"

After exchanging pleasantries, Sanya returned to the camp of the Kingdom of Stella.

Levy sat limply on the floor, unable to contain her emotions, and exclaimed, "Phew~ It's finally over. Mr. Warlord's request was really difficult."

The battle had completely drained them all; they didn't even have the strength to stand. They were all covered in wounds and barely breathing.

Upon hearing this, the others also showed a relaxed expression, as if to say, "It's really not easy." Kana even started calculating how many barrels of good wine she could buy with her share of the reward.

Lucy's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly said, "Levy, let's talk about this when we get back."

If I remember correctly, they said something similar when the Animus first lay down.

As a result, Chaxiu's theft of the Dragon's Cry restored Animus's power, bringing about an even greater crisis!

"Oh, Lucy, aren't you being a bit too sensitive? The Animus is all ashes now!" Cana waved her hand dismissively.

"None of the others in the Kingdom of Stella seem to have any intention of avenging their king," Wendy added.

"That's true."

Upon hearing this, Lucy completely dispelled her concerns, patted her chest, and laughed, "Then, as the captain, I, Vadashi, officially announce that this S-class mission has been successfully completed!"

Before Kana and the others could respond, a cold and sinister voice suddenly came from afar.

"Hehehe! A perfect completion? I doubt it!"

hum! !

Along with the sound came an extremely powerful aura of magic.

The earth trembled, the sky roared, and an overwhelming, terrifying pressure instantly enveloped the entire battlefield!

A wave of despair washed over them from all directions, and everyone present, including Sanya, turned pale and trembled.

Trembling, they gazed toward the source of the majesty.

There, on the shattered horizon, stood three figures, comparable to ferocious beasts and monsters, bathed in the depths of a torrent of magic.

"They...the intelligence dealers we met yesterday?"

Lucy's pupils contracted as she recognized the other person's distinctive dark bodysuit.

"How could this be? This magic is even stronger than Animus—"

Levy's face was deathly pale, and her hands began to tremble uncontrollably.

Kana, Eclair, Wendy, Charlotte, and Mengmeng were all immobilized by that oppressive force.

Regardless of the current state, it was a crushing defeat stemming from the depths of the soul.

At this moment, every cell in the body sends out the same signal: Escape! Escape now!

If even they are like this, then it goes without saying that the situation is even more pronounced in the Kingdom of Stella.

The ordinary soldiers were so shocked that their vision went white and they fell asleep immediately, leaving only Sanya and the three-star general, who were slumped on the ground, barely able to stay awake.

With explosive special effects and arrogant strides, the three "information merchants" slowly approached the disheveled Lucy's team.
