"I'm not lusting after someone!" Harpy declared righteously. "I'm just curious about my parallel universe self!"
"That's lust at first sight," Lili added.
"Eh, even Lili..."
Watching the cats frolicking around him, the silver-white kitten Toka said to everyone with a serious expression, "My magic 'Wings of Water' can return me to Elentia, but there are too many of you. My magic power isn't enough to teleport everyone at once..."
“It’s simple, just let me do it.” Hope stepped forward, picked up Toka and let it demonstrate its ‘Wings of Water’.
Although it didn't understand, the cat did as instructed.
"Wings of Water" is a spell that can open a spatial portal. It looks like a circular portal formed by flowing water and requires water to cast. It is not a very profound spell, but it is still quite difficult to learn.
But is Hope someone who would seriously study magic?
The magic that a mage painstakingly cultivates can never compare to the stability and solidity of a system that can be cracked and mastered.
With the help of the system and the magic crystal, Hope cracked the "Wings of Water" almost instantly and successfully mastered the magic. It had been a long time since he had encountered a magic worth collecting.
Hope doesn't even bother to glance at ordinary magic anymore; he only gets interested in magic with its own mechanics or impressive numerical values.
After saying goodbye to Melkkobia and Karamiru, the group arrived at a deserted coastline.
Hope stood on a reef and drew the seawater to activate the "water wings." Intricate magical patterns shimmered with silvery-white light as the water flowed, and a spatial rift opened.
“It’s all set.” Hope withdrew his hand. “With the anchor point provided by Toka, I have pinpointed Elentia. If there’s nothing else, everyone can set off.”
"Wuhu~"
When it comes to venturing into a new and unknown world, Natsu is naturally at the forefront. His old nemesis Gray follows closely behind, and Juvia quickly catches up as well.
He pursued him, she pursued him...
The group filed into the spatial passage, but only halfway through when a tremendous magical force suddenly struck, shattering the 'Wings of Water' and forcing them to retreat from the passage.
Fortunately, Huo Pu gathered everyone together, otherwise they might have been scattered in unknown places.
As soon as they landed, Natsu eagerly asked, "What just happened? Are we in Elentia?"
“No… the magic concentration here… is pitifully low.” Faris shook her head. If only the magic in her homeland could be this low.
The others began to look around at their surroundings.
This isn't Elentia either. Where did she come from? Is this still Aslant?
Soon everyone noticed that they were standing on an island floating in the air, and then looked at several other islands nearby that were also floating in the air.
A familiar energy fluctuation emanated from the air.
This unique environment reminded everyone of another world where magic was scarce and the land was divided into countless floating islands.
"and many more!"
"Could this be...?"
"Edras?!"
"..."
Mirajane explained to the bewildered Faris and Toka that this was another parallel world.
So this is the docking world of the "World Magic Transfer Project". Faris curiously observes this place where the magic situation is completely opposite to that of her hometown.
Although we couldn't go directly to Elentia due to an accident, coming to Edolas isn't a bad thing. We can take the opportunity to see how our counterparts, whom we haven't seen for almost half a year, are doing.
Just as Hope was taking out the Gundam from the changing space, preparing to use it as a temporary means of transportation, the magical fluctuation that had previously disrupted the spatial magic channel reappeared.
Clearly sensing this magical power, Hope immediately frowned. "This is... such strong dragon power, and the power of despair... The shockwave from the collision can even shatter the Water Wings."
Since the demise of the God of Despair, only one person possesses the power of despair: Emperor Hopples of Despair, who uses the power of despair to perform acts of hope.
In the world of Edolas, Hopeless is in a class of his own; no local can command his strength to this extent.
So who is the other me fighting?
Chapter 293 Unlucky Hopeless
Edolas, the human kingdom.
In the bustling capital, nowadays everyone—from royalty and nobility to merchants and travelers, and even ordinary citizens—is...
Everyone was eagerly anticipating the battle, so tense that they dared not even breathe, for fear of affecting the battle taking place on the ruins of the fallen Kingdom of Transcendent outside the capital.
A day ago, the sky above the capital city suddenly shattered like glass, revealing a huge, dark crack, and an enormous black dragon entered this world.
It only let out a roar to the sky, and many ordinary people fainted from the discomfort.
Faced with such a terrifying monster, even Erza Knightworth, the strongest mage general in the kingdom, and Fairy Tail, the strongest magic guild, lost the courage to fight.
Just as people were gripped by fear, the man returned.
Despair Emperor Hopples.
Feeling the taste of despair and seeing the world barrier that he had painstakingly repaired exposed with a gaping hole, even the good-natured Hopeless couldn't help but feel angry.
However, based on the idea that "one cannot judge a dragon's quality by its appearance alone," Hopeless suppressed his anger and stepped forward to try to communicate with the black dragon that had suddenly barged into Edolas.
However, after the black dragon saw Hopleth and uttered only "Damn god," it immediately attacked him.
The fight lasted for a whole day and night.
The terrifying commotion of the magical collision, like thunderclaps, relentlessly enveloped everyone's hearts.
Fleeing is not an option, nor are they qualified to provide support.
So people could only place their hopes on this "King of Despair".
In response, a bewildered Hopeless only had one thing to say.
We can't beat them, we simply can't beat them...
Most importantly, this thing is immune to magic damage!
How can there be such an unreasonable existence in the world?
Where is the planning, and where is the balance?
The black dragon's power was so great that even Hope, who had once easily manipulated the remnant soul of the God of Despair, had never put such immense pressure on Hopeless.
Rather than saying that Hopleth fought the black dragon for a day and a night, it would be more accurate to say that he was whipped around like a top by the black dragon for a day and a night.
If it weren't for the immense power of despair he had accumulated over the years, he would have been smashed into a pulp by a single claw.
"Hmph! Compared to Ankhseram, you're utterly weak." Acnologia slapped Hopeless, who was protected by magic, away; he was furious.
Two weeks ago, Acnologia sensed the presence of a god and followed the scent.
With the dragon race's abnormally powerful physique, circling the continent is just a matter of minutes, let alone a black dragon flying at full speed.
At that time, Ankhseram, who was remotely battling Hope because of Mavis's resurrection and felt offended, was caught red-handed by Acnologia, who had come by smelling the scent.
Before they could even deal with one human wielding unknown powers, another troublesome entity came knocking.
Although Ankhseram is a god, it is ultimately just a more powerful magical creature. Its main methods are driven by magic. It has no chance against a bug like Acnologia.
So He came up with a wicked plan and used spatial magic to teleport Acnologia out of the world of Asland.
Acnologia, with its powerful physique, endured half a month in the pitch-black spatial rift before finally breaking into the world of Edolas.
Acnologia was furious at being tricked by the god of life and death when Hopeless, who could barely be considered a demigod, approached her.
Isn't that just asking for trouble?
Especially since this guy looks exactly like that person.
......
Hopeless stopped flying backward. His Despair Power was now down to its last bit. Let alone fighting the Black Dragon, this little bit of power couldn't even withstand a single slap from the Black Dragon.
Edolas had finally gotten back on track, so why did it have to suffer this calamity...?
What should I do...?
Is this the end...?
A sense of powerlessness welled up inside him. The enormous gap in strength between the two sides caused even Hopeless, whose power was derived from "despair," to feel a sense of despair.
Just as Hopleth's mind was wavering.
"Go for it, Lord Hopeless!"
A voice suddenly came from the direction of the capital; it belonged to a soldier who had once served under him.
After a brief silence...
The cheers erupted like a mountain collapsing and a tsunami crashing down.
On this day, Hopleth seemed to see the lost power of hope, which had been lost by the god of despair, reassemble itself upon him.
Amidst heartfelt cheers, Hopeless dragged his weary body to his feet again. "With thousands of lights shining behind me, how can I fall here!"
Hopleth roared, unleashing his last bit of desperate power, but within that dark purple magic, wisps of white light emerged.
That's right, it was the power of hope that the god of despair had lost.
Although it was so faint as to be almost invisible, it gave Hopleth the right to truly become a god, the god of hope and despair.
And now, he will use this power to protect his world.
"Dragon! Now take my strongest attack!"
"Strongest state! Last strength! Ultimate killing move!"
"Kou Ao!"
"Dawn Breaks, Burial!"
In an instant, black and white were reversed, and the powerful magic almost materialized. The power of hope and despair shook heaven and earth. This was Hopleth's earth-shattering strike, which he had given his all to.
However, Acnologia simply raised one of his dragon claws expressionlessly, the magic of 'Dragon Slayer of Nothingness' wrapping around it.
Black Dragon Annihilation Fist!
next second.
With a tremendous roar, the strange phenomenon vanished instantly.
