Fairy Tail: You call this Celestial Spirit Magic?!

Chapter 499: Announcement (Please Subscribe!)

Moen's offer of help wasn't just a casual remark. After all, August and Erin Belserion were now considered his own people, so if they really couldn't handle it, he would definitely help.

The "Alvares Empire" absolutely cannot fall. First, it cannot allow the "Western Continent" to be devastated. Second, the emergence of a new empire is uncontrollable. It would be best if our own people could control this empire, at least reducing the possibility of things like the "Alvares Empire" invading the "Ishgar Continent".

"Are you sure you don't need our help?"

Mebius couldn't help but express his desire to help again.

"Trust us. We've been in the Alvarez Empire for so many years, and we're not just doing this for nothing. We'll definitely be able to take it down."

Auguste smiled and made a promise to his mother.

"Alright, then I'll send you two back. You two definitely can't disappear together for so long, especially August."

""

Moen nodded, accepting August and Erin Belserion's suggestion, and let the two of them try it out first, since he could keep an eye on the situation there at any time.

If something goes wrong and August and Erin Belserion really can't handle it, then Moen will have to step in directly, regardless of the "Shield of the Holy Twelve," it's just a matter of convenience.

However, Moen will definitely not take charge of this "Alvarez Empire"; in the end, it will still be handed over to August to manage.

Moen had hardly ever managed the daily affairs of his own fiefdom, leaving them to the mayor and the government. How could he possibly create such a big problem for himself as the "Alvarez Empire"?

Upon hearing that they had to go back immediately, August and Erin Belserion both looked a little reluctant. After all, they had just finished recognizing their mother and daughter, and they hadn't had a chance to spend time with her before having to part ways again. It was understandable that they felt reluctant.

However, neither of them were pretentious. They both understood that the matter of the "Alvarez Empire" could not be delayed. They had to make arrangements and seize the initiative.

The fact that Emperor Zeref has passed away is currently unknown to others, which is exactly what they can exploit.

"come on!"

Mebius cheered earnestly on her son.

"We will do our best."

Augustus responded to his mother, Mavis, with a smile.

"I'm very capable, I can be of help."

Erza still wanted to help, since she felt she couldn't be of much help in other matters, so she might as well help fight.

"No need, the two of us can manage."

Erin Belserion, however, still refused Erza; she was not so weak that she needed her daughter to fight for her.

Moreover, the "Spriggan 12" were indeed not some worthless bunch. Erin Belserion genuinely felt that Erza wouldn't be of much help even if she went; she knew the "Spriggan 12".

However, while Irene Belserion understood the Spriggan 12, she didn't understand Erza's strength. Erza was no weakling now; she had also had her "Second Magic Source" activated by Ultear's "Arc of Time Magic," making her strength even greater than before. Those three years were not wasted.

Moreover, Erza also possesses the "Blood of God" specially concocted by Moen. It is made from the "Blood of God" as a raw material, along with various herbs and magical ingredients. Moen has turned the "Blood of God" into a drink that can cause people to unleash their full potential.

If you encounter any trouble that you can't solve with your original strength, then drink the [Blood of God] potion to unleash your full potential and unleash power several times greater than your original strength.

As for the "Spriggan 12," even without Erza's ultimate ability, they might not be able to defeat her, let alone after she unleashes her full power. Erza could easily overpower the Spriggan 12. Irene Belserion clearly doesn't understand Erza's abilities, nor does she understand Moon's.

In recent years, besides his cultivation, Moen has also conducted a lot of research. Not only this "God's Blood Burst Potion", he is also trying to formulate a potion that can truly and permanently enhance a person's physical fitness and extend their lifespan.

Ophiuchus is naturally very skilled at making medicine and poison. The potions that Moen concocts can cure all diseases, and the poisons he concocts can even kill gods.

As for something as valuable as the Blood of God, Moen naturally wanted to develop it to the fullest extent and make full use of it. He researched many uses, and the "Boosting Potion" was undoubtedly the strongest, since it was indeed abnormal to be able to increase one's strength several times at once.

Besides the Blood of God, Moen has also begun to study his own blood. The "Golden Blood of the Eighth Sense" in his body is also very powerful, and can even make the Bronze and Silver Cloths not much worse than the Gold Cloths.

The amount of [Blood of God] is not large, but Moen himself has plenty of blood.

If more potions could be developed, such as those that could make others stronger or immortal by using one's own blood, Moen would find it quite interesting. He would truly become Tang Sanzang, but unfortunately, he would be a Tang Sanzang who was quite skilled in martial arts.

"Buzz!"

With a thought, Moen instantly vanished from August and Erin Belserion's figures, having been teleported back to the "Alvarez Empire" and back to August's home.

The "Alvarez Twins" returned home, and the two looked at each other, both feeling as if they had been separated by a lifetime.

Even though it hadn't been long since I left, it felt like everything had changed.

"Let's get to work and not let everyone down."

August was the first to react, and he immediately got into the zone.

August wasn't particularly interested in the title of "Emperor of the Alvarez Empire," but since the organization needed him to take on this responsibility, he was willing to accept it.

"Should we gather everyone together first?"

Irene Bercelion didn't dwell on her emotions any longer; her expression turned cold, and she reverted to her ruthless persona as one of the "Alvarez Twins."

"What follows is a brutal battle. We must suppress all dissent. Anyone who disagrees or tries to create chaos will be killed without mercy."

Eileen Bercelion was very direct: at this point, forget about morality and ethics; just eliminate all dissenting voices and firmly grasp the throne first.

"The first one...."

""

Auguste narrowed his eyes. He did not object to Eileen Bercelion's statement; this was not the time to show mercy.

"Raked Dragneel!"

'

Erin Belserion uttered the name, the name Auguste was thinking of.

"That's right, Larcade, that bastard, has always claimed to be Jelf's son..."

August's words inevitably carried some personal feelings. He really disliked Larcade. Not only was that guy arrogant, but he also often disobeyed orders. When the Twelve Aegis were summoned, Larcade was often absent.

Relying on his surname "Doragnir", Larcade considered himself the heir to the empire, the "prince" of the empire, and acted with utter lawlessness, showing no regard for anyone.

Therefore, if August wants to inherit the empire, he must first get rid of Larcade Dragnir.

August didn't hesitate at all on this point. If Zeref hadn't forbade it, he would have already taught Larcade a lesson. Larcade was just a demon created by Zeref, yet it dared to claim it was Zeref's son...

As Jelf's "legitimate son," it's easy to understand why August harbors such deep resentment towards Larcade Dragneel.

"Then Bradman must be an enemy too."

Erin Belserion continued, saying that Bradman was also a demon created by Zeref, and was indeed closer to Larcade Dragneel, since they were of the same species.

"Not necessarily. Larcade, that guy, always boasts that he is a finished product far superior to other demons. He actually looks down on Bradman because he thinks that people like Bradman are failures. He is different from other demons because he bears the surname Dragneel."

August smiled. He knew Larcade too well. If they wanted to get rid of Larcade, Bradman, who was also a "Demon of Zeref," might not necessarily help Larcade. Bradman didn't kick him while he was down only because they were both demons.

"Timalia and Blantish should be on our side."

Having discussed their main adversaries, Erin Belserion then spoke of her "allies," Timalia Yesta, the "War Queen," and Brantice, the "Collapsed Nation." She had always maintained a good relationship with them, and if a war were to break out, she would definitely stand by their side.

"Jabbs will also be on our side."

August added that "The Assassin" Jacob Rechoo had a good relationship with him, always respected him, and would definitely stand with them.

"That means we definitely have five people on our side now."

Eileen Bercelion smiled; she felt that was enough.

With her and August, plus Timalia, Brandish, Jacob, and Bradman who also disliked Larcade, no one else could stand against them.

"Well, others might not necessarily oppose us either."

August nodded, ready to reveal his identity. His identity, along with his prestige in the "Alvarez Empire" and his reputation among the "Twelve Shields of the Holy Light," were enough to garner his support.

"Gather everyone here."

Having made his decision, Auguste no longer hesitated. In the end, strength would prevail, and he and Irene Belserion were the strongest in the "Alvarez Empire," which was their greatest chance of winning.

Soon, the order to summon the "Shield of the Holy Covenant" was issued. This time it was very urgent because it involved Zeref. Since Zeref was involved, Larcade and Neinhardt, who rarely attended meetings, naturally came this time as well.

"Okay, everyone's here."

In the assembly hall, looking at the "Twelve Shields of the Holy See" who had finally gathered together, August sighed with emotion.

"August, why did you summon everyone here? What happened to Lord Zeref? What is the meaning of the message you sent?"

High up in the assembly hall, Neinhart, dressed in green and with a purple ponytail, asked a question. He had never really liked attending these meetings.

However, this time August made a very serious statement. He actually said, "Lord Zeref is in trouble." With such a statement, the entire 12 Shields of the Holy War naturally came.

"Lord Zeref, our Emperor has passed away."

Auguste gave the answer directly, without keeping anyone in suspense.

""

The assembly hall fell silent; everyone was stunned.

This was normal. Neither August nor Erin Belserion found it strange, since they were in similar situations at the time. This news was obviously hard for most of the "Shield of the Holy Trinity" to accept.

"What nonsense are you spouting? August, is this something to joke about?! How could Lord Zeref...?"

""

After a moment of silence in the assembly hall, someone finally spoke. It was Imber Yura, dressed in blue, with gray-blue hair and glasses. Imber looked incredulous; he couldn't believe that August would say such a thing.

Imber Yura, who has always served as Zeref's Chief of Staff and Regent, is nicknamed "General Winter." He is calm, meticulous, and has excellent administrative skills, earning him the deep trust of Zeref. He is essentially the Prime Minister of the Empire.

As for August, Imber Yura still respected him. This old "Magic King" and "the strongest mage of the Alvarez Empire" never competed with him for power, but always supported him and assisted him in governing the entire "Alvarez Empire".

Therefore, Imber Yura did not understand why August would say such a thing, and he was terrified, fearing that what August said was true.

Because Imber Yura knew that August might respect Lord Zeref even more than he did, and August would never have said those words without factual support.

"What August said is true. Both he and I have verified it. Lord Jelf, our Emperor has passed away peacefully. He was freed from the curse and found liberation. So now we must decide the future of the Empire."

While everyone was still in shock, Erin Belserion spoke up, which only made everyone more shocked.

Auguste said it was one thing, but now even Irene Bercelion is saying the same thing. These are the "two pillars of Albacete"!

These two are both veterans of His Majesty the Emperor's service, having served by Zeref's side for many years. They were the ones who truly helped Zeref establish the "Alvarez Empire".

Although they weren't "Consuls" or anything like that, their status was far beyond what Consul Imber Yura could compare to.
