Fairy Tail: All Magic Converges in One Body

Hopleth transformed into a shooting star, crashing through the city walls and causing buildings to collapse one after another until he finally stopped, crashing heavily into the royal palace in the center of the city.

Acnologia retracted its claws, finally venting its frustration, and its mood improved considerably.

Go into overdrive? Even if you go into overdrive, you still can't break my defense.

Immune to magic, kid.

However, his magical effects are quite flashy and pretty.

Inside the palace, as if sensing the black dragon's sharp criticism, Hopeless, lying on the ground with broken bones all over his body, coughed up another mouthful of blood.

He struggled to lift his head and look at the terrified acting king, Faust, and with his last strength shouted:

"Quick! Go to Aslant and fetch Hope!"

Chapter 294 Little Black, what brings you here?

The palace is engraved with the 'Anima' magic circle, but the problem is that Faust doesn't have enough magic power to activate the spell.

With Hopeless's intervention, Edolas's depleted magic has begun to reverse and recover. However, everything is a gradual process. The previous deficit was too severe, resulting in a very slow rate of magic generation.

Fortunately, Faust still had some magic crystals hidden away in a secret chamber of the palace. After all, he was a king with centralized power, so it was perfectly normal for him to have a small treasury.

Just as Faust was preparing to act, the sky suddenly darkened.

Acnologia's massive figure loomed over the entire palace, his golden vertical pupils sweeping across the ruined city as if looking down on a swarm of ants.

Finally, looking at Hope, who lay amidst the ruins of the palace with not a single intact bone in his body, he said, "You look exactly like that person, but your strength is far inferior."

Hopeless naturally guessed that the black dragon was referring to Hope. He really wanted to give the middle finger; he was human, how could he compare himself to these two monsters who were practically bugs...

Seeing that Hopeless couldn't even stand up, Acnologia raised its dragon claw with some boredom, aiming at the palace, "Looks like this is all your damn god power is like, you really disappoint me."

“I said… I… am not a god…” Hopleth struggled to raise his head.

Despairing Emperor Hopeless said no more. Magic gathered, and black light compressed into a small dot between the dragon claws—a power powerful enough to raze the entire palace to the ground.

Faust's legs buckled, and he collapsed to his knees.

Hopleth closed his eyes reluctantly.

Just then... the sky above Edolas tore open, and a spatial passage surrounded by a circular stream of water opened between the royal capital and the black dragon.

Hope emerged from the "Wings of Water".

I must say, this magic is actually quite useful. From now on, when I go out to play, I don't even need to rush. I can just open "Water Wings" and go straight to my destination. It feels a bit like the portal of the Sorcerer Supreme in Marvel.

Just as it emerged from the water wing, the black light between the dragon claws crashed down.

Faced with the overwhelming pressure, Hope didn't even lift an eyelid. With a casual wave of his hand, he blocked the attack that was enough to destroy the royal palace.

The energy shockwave spread outwards, creating a gust of wind.

Hope looked up and met the black dragon's white eyes. She said with some surprise, "Oh~ isn't this Little Black? What are you doing in the Edolas world?"

His tone was as familiar as if he were meeting an old friend, but when Hope said those words, the air seemed to freeze for a moment.

Acnologia's dragon claws stopped in mid-air.

Little Black...you really dare to call me that...

My name is... eh? What was it again?

Acnologia is not actually the black dragon's real name, but the name of a dragon that slaughtered his hometown. He embarked on the path of becoming a Dragon Slayer Mage in order to seek revenge.

But as he continued to kill, bathing in countless dragon blood, he still couldn't find his enemy. Gradually, he forgot his real name and only remembered the name of his enemy... Acnologia.

Over time, this name became his...

Recalling unpleasant memories, Black Dragon suddenly felt annoyed. He lost all interest in fighting Hope, which had been his intention. What a disappointment.

Seeing that Acnologia had no intention of making another move, Hope breathed a sigh of relief. He could withstand the black dragon's attack if a real fight broke out, but the aftershocks of their battle alone would be enough to level the city.

That's what happens when you're too strong.

The man and the dragon landed, and after learning a little about what had happened from the black dragon, Hope was somewhat amused and exasperated. "Ankhseram threw you into the spatial rift, and you just drifted all the way to Edolas like that?"

"Yes."

"And then you got into a fight with that guy?" Hope gestured toward Hopeless in the ruins.

“He looks exactly like you, and he has the aura of a god. I was seething with anger at the time.” Acnologia’s voice carried a hint of self-righteousness.

Hope: "......"

So you just want to vent your anger on someone, right?

Hopeless is really unlucky...

"Um..." Hopeless's weak voice came from behind, "Are you guys done talking? If you're done, could you please help me first? I feel like I'm about to die..."

Hope glanced back at her other self lying in the rubble, her bones seemingly broken in countless places, and raised an eyebrow. "Speaking of which, I feel like I've seen you somewhere before, looking like this?"

"Nonsense, last time I was possessed by the God of Despair, you beat my body into this state too."

"Hey... This has nothing to do with me, you're just unlucky to be used as a punching bag."

Hope walked over, squatted down to examine his injuries, and clicked his tongue twice. "Thirty-seven bones are broken, internal organs are displaced, magic power is exhausted, physical strength is depleted... It's alright, he won't die."

"You call this 'okay'?!"

"You didn't get up last time either."

Perhaps because they were in the same body, the two seemed to have an endless argument. Hope stretched out her hand, and a soft white light of healing magic emanated from her palm.

Hopleth felt a sudden lightness throughout his body, and within seconds, all his broken bones and ruptured internal organs were completely healed.

"Thanks, and please restore the capital as well." Hopeless said without any politeness after glancing at the damaged capital.

"You're really not being polite."

"Of course, we're brothers."

Hope curled her lip, thinking, "No wonder you're another me, your shamelessness is just as good as mine."

He snapped his fingers, and the damaged city buildings returned to their previous state under the influence of the 'time arc'.

After finishing the trivial matters, Hope looked at Acnologia beside her. "You should be able to transform into a human, right? Don't you think human palaces are a bit crowded for dragons?"

Acnologia snorted and transformed into human form. "Anxeram's aura was leaked when he was dealing with you. When will you two face off again?"

They're trying to use me as bait...

It seems the temptation to kill a god is really strong for the black dragon.

Hope pondered for a moment, "I resurrected a dead person, which is why Ankhseram has his eye on me and wants to lure Him. I'll deal with that next time I resurrect someone."

Hopleth, standing nearby, felt his heart pounding. That was resurrecting the dead! What did his other self mean by speaking so casually? Had he become that powerful already?

Hope then said to Acnologia, "I can send you back to Aslant, but I need to bring a few of my companions over first."

Acunorokia ignored Hope. What was the point of talking to him about this? Was he mocking his loneliness?

The "Wings of Water" were activated again, and Erza and the others were teleported over. When Natsu saw Acnologia in human form, his pupils shrank from their initial excitement.

"Black Dragon!"

Chapter 295 The Moon God Dragon's Intervention

After meeting Zeref on Tenrou Island and learning about his other identity, Natsu harbored deep hostility towards Acnologia.

Ignir and his companions came to this era to destroy the Black Dragon. If I defeat Acnologia now, will Ignir and his companions show themselves on their own?

Natsu's fist instantly burst into flames.

Gajeel was also eager to try.

"Natsu!" Lucy grabbed Natsu's arm. "Wake up! He's the kind of guy who can whip Hopeless like a spinning top!"

“Lucy is right.” Levy and Lucy stood on the same side. “Only when you two can beat Despair King will you be qualified to go up and get beaten by him.”

Hopleth: ? ? ? Are you guys being polite?

Acnologia glanced at Natsu, his golden vertical pupils expressionless, and said disdainfully, "I have no interest in anything other than gods right now. Don't go looking for trouble."

Natsu's temper flared up immediately, and if Erza hadn't intervened, Lucy and Happy wouldn't have been able to control him.

But only by understanding that Acnologia's words were not directed at Natsu, but at the Fire Dragon King Igneel.

Dragons are the most powerful magical creatures. In addition to their strong bodies and various abilities, they also possess unique life-saving techniques.

Its name is "Soul Dragon Technique".

Dragons can merge into the bodies of other magical creatures. Proud dragons usually only use this secret technique to save their lives when they are seriously injured or on the verge of death.

Meanwhile, Natsu, Gajeel, Wendy, and their missing dragon parents are actually accumulating power within their respective bodies using the "Soul Dragon Technique," preparing to use it against the black dragon.

Once the secret technique is broken, they can no longer accumulate power, so they cannot see the children for the time being, but they continue to protect them silently.

Another effect of the "Soul Dragon Technique" is that it greatly suppresses the dragon transformation progress of Dragon Slayer Mages.

Knowing the power of the Black Dragon, and not wanting Natsu and the others to be involved in the blood feud of the Dragon Clan, the Fire Dragon King, the Iron Dragon, and the Sky Dragon all used their own methods to send messages to Hope after the Tenrou Island incident, asking him to help cover it up.

Hope hadn't expected Natsu to be so brave.

You have to understand that unless it's in a no-man's land, even he wouldn't dare to go all out against the Black Dragon, since a battle at their level would have too wide an impact.

Fortunately, Acnologia really had no interest in Natsu.

In his eyes, whether it was the Black Mage's brother or the Fire Dragon King's adopted son, they were no different from the people and dragons he had killed—equally weak.

Of course, if the Fire Dragon King stops hiding, he wouldn't mind having a big battle.

In fact, Acnologia saw through Natsu's "Soul Dragon Technique" the moment he first met him. After all, he was someone who had destroyed the entire dragon race, so how could he not have such insight?

It's simply that I don't take it to heart.

There was another guy who piqued Acnologia's interest. He looked at Kurnuki in his human form and said, "I didn't expect there to be dragons in this world. You... do you want to die?"

Kurnuki broke out in a cold sweat immediately.

Although he had only heard of it in rumors, when the presence that had frightened his mother so much that she hid in Elentia looked over, Kurnuki felt a tremor from the depths of his soul.

With just a glance, he felt immense pressure, as if he were surrounded by mountains of corpses and seas of blood. The aura he exuded was far beyond what the Moon Dragon or the Water Dragon could compare to.
