Fairy Tail: You call this Celestial Spirit Magic?!

Chapter 502 It's You (The Finale)

Zeref's appearance changed everything, and the previously divided "Shield of the Holy Covenant" was reunited.

It wasn't so much unity as it was fear; they were all terrified, and they realized just how terrifying Moen truly was.

"Yes, August, the empire is now in your hands."

Jelf supported Moen's decision, looking at August with approval in his eyes, which made August tremble.

"I'll let these guys off the hook for now, out of respect for you. But if anyone else does something foolish in the future, I won't be so lenient."

Moen smiled as he looked at the group of people who had been so arrogant just moments before. They had been acting like war freaks, but now they were kneeling on the ground.

Jelf's "tyranny" was still quite strong; the suppression formed by his long-standing rule was clearly stronger than that of a suddenly appearing powerful enemy.

"Hmm, do as you please."

Jelf had no objection, and his words made the Twelve Shields tremble, clearly frightened.

"And this guy?"

Moen glanced at Neinhart, who raised an eyebrow.

""

Neinhart knelt on the ground, his heart filled with fear. He dared not raise his head, dared not face the fear in his heart.

These battle maniacs didn't become members of the "Shield of the Holy Twelve" purely voluntarily; they had all been defeated by Zeref, and therefore naturally harbored a deep fear of this "progenitor of dark magic."

Zeref's terrifying aura and surging magical power made Neinhardt tremble. How was this any different from Zeref when he was still alive?!

That Moen... he really is stronger than Zeref! He can make the materialized Zeref unleash his full power!

At this moment, no one was more afraid than Neinhart. He was afraid of Zeref, but also of Moen, who was even more powerful than Zeref.

"Spare his life."

Jelf spoke up; he didn't want to commit any more killings.

"Okay, that's settled then."

Moen waved his hand dismissively, and the materialized Zeref vanished instantly, as he canceled the use of the "materialization magic".

"So? Is anyone still not convinced?"

Moen glanced at the Twelve Shields kneeling on the ground and asked again.

"No...that's all! Lord Moen!"

Neinhart answered the question first. He was now more respectful to Moen than he was to Zeref. He was warlike, but he also admired strength. He dared not resist in the face of a true strongman.

The other members of the "Twelve Shields of the Holy Light" echoed each other, becoming extremely obedient, and no one dared to utter a single word of dissent.

"Let's go with August."

Moen shook his head and left a message.

"Buzz!"

Moen's figure disappeared, and the assembly hall fell silent. The Twelve Shields, who were kneeling on the ground, did not rise for a long time.

Let's continue.

Finally, August spoke up. He had calmed down and now, with his father Jelf's approval and endorsement, no one could doubt his identity anymore, and no one would rebel against him.

The "Alvarez Empire" officially enters a new era starting today, the era of August. Although he is already an old man in his eighties, he can live for several more decades without any problem.

The only problem is probably the issue of succession; August has not had any children all these years.

However, Augustus was quite open-minded about this; the one who inherits the empire doesn't necessarily have to be of his bloodline.

Three years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Moen finally accumulated the final contribution points.

Over the past three years, Moen has completed many small tasks, but it is indeed unlikely that he will be able to obtain another task that unlocks the Gold Cloth. With his current strength, not to mention in "Aislandon", even in several parallel worlds, there is no one who can challenge him.

"In the entire system, you are the last one left."

Looking at the Taurus Gold Cloth, Moen immediately chose to exchange for it.

"Buzz!"

The heavens and earth trembled, and finally, the last barrier that had imprisoned Moen was completely broken. The barrier that he had tried so hard to overcome for so long finally disappeared completely.

Moen has achieved the ultimate transformation from the eighth sense to the ninth sense, from being integrated into the world to now being in a state of transcendence.

The Eighth Sense, when fully realized, means that Moen has understood the mysteries of the entire world, and everything is no longer a secret to him.

He is no longer bound by rules and can freely travel to other worlds, parallel universes, and even the past, present, and future.

The Ninth Sense, on the other hand, has progressed from "using the rules to my advantage" to "I define the rules." He will now be able to formulate and change the rules of the world, and he can even determine the changes in the timeline, deciding what is past, present, and future.

"Buzz!"

With a thought, Moen established a connection between several parallel worlds. A passage was indeed established between "Aislandon", "Edras", and "Elendia", forming a circle in which the three worlds could reach each other.

"This... is true divine power."

Moen looked at his hands; he was completely different now, having once again achieved a holistic evolution.

Most importantly, the [Saint Seiya System] had indeed disappeared, completely merging into his body, becoming a part of him, and an ability he possessed.

No wonder...no wonder...

'

Moen muttered to himself, "Something's not right. This isn't just the 'early stage of the Ninth Sense,' but has directly reached the 'peak stage of the Ninth Sense.' This is the effect of completely merging with the [Saint Seiya System]."

He is now just one step away from truly stepping into the "origin of all things," which is the realm of the "tenth sense."

If he reaches the "Tenth Sense," he will become the truly omnipotent "Primordial," the "Primordial" who can create countless worlds from nothingness in an instant. That is the realm of completely severing all human emotions and transforming into the "absolute will of God."

"6

""

Thinking about this, Mo En suddenly realized that it wasn't that he couldn't reach that level, but that he had voluntarily given up on entering it.

He made this decision after a moment of hesitation, or perhaps after billions of years; he refused to abandon all humanity.

In fact, the reason he has been unable to break through to the "ninth sense" is because of emotions and human nature.

To enter the "ninth sense," one must shatter all the previous "eight senses," abandon all emotions, and achieve complete transcendence.

But Moen couldn't do it, nor was he willing to.

After unlocking the Taurus Gold Cloth and fusing with the Saint Seiya System, he chose to maintain his humanity at the cost of giving up reaching the pinnacle.

"This is the real me. Otherwise, what's the use of reaching the tenth sense? If I abandon all emotions, am I still me?"

Looking at his own hands, Moen felt no regret, because he knew he still had people and things he cared about, and he couldn't abandon them, couldn't abandon everything in this world.

"Buzz!"

Moen appeared in front of the Fairy Tail guild gate.

Everyone in the guild gathered in front of the door. They had a feeling, and although they didn't know why, they waited anxiously in front of the door.

Upon seeing Moen's figure appear, everyone in the Fairy Tail guild breathed a sigh of relief, followed by joy—a joy of having saved something.

"Moun!"

"You brat!"

"President!"

"Moenge!"

Everyone shouted happily as they ran forward toward Moen.

Moen walked towards everyone with a smile. What was trying to persuade him to stay? What made him make this choice?

Obvious.

Among the crowd, Erza, Mirajane, and Juvia ran at the front, embracing Moen with joy and tears in their eyes.

(The End)
