Fairy Tail: All Magic Converges in One Body

Hope destroyed all the remaining black gems in one go, and Dracula Magma's hard-won momentum faltered. He clapped his hands and said, "It's because you always put yourself above humanity that you don't understand the equality of life."

“Melkkobia understood, so he became a true ‘dragon,’ and was respected from the bottom of his heart by the humans he protected.”

"The Fire Dragon King of 400 years ago believed that all living beings were equal, so he did not mind going to great lengths to raise a mischievous human cub."

"Humans and dragons can become friends, fathers and sons, and even become equally powerful..."

"Peaceful development is the only way forward."

Listening to Hope's long-winded speech, Dracula Mag fell silent for a moment, then took a deep breath. "What good is understanding? I believe in the survival of the fittest!"

He roared, "Come on! Let me see the consciousness of you humans!"

Hope said no more. Dracula Mag was left with only 10 gems that had been absorbed into his body, and his strength had been greatly reduced, less than one-seventh of his full strength.

They're only at the level of two Makarovs.

The final battle began, and Natsu was the first to rush out.

"The fire dragon—"

Behind him, Gray instantly transformed into his Ice Destroyer form and walked alongside him.

"The Ice Demon's—"

The two leaped into the air simultaneously, their fists colliding in mid-air, ice and fire merging to form a magical torrent of interwoven red and blue energy.

"Combined Magic: Dragon Slayer, Evil Slayer, Frostbite Shore!!"

Ice and fire intertwined, instantly breaking through Dracula Mag's rock shield and slamming into the huge cross-shaped scar on his chest—a wound left by Eresheria a hundred years ago, a wound that would forever haunt him.

Dracula Mag let out a piercing scream.

Erza launched a surprise attack from the side, her giant sword slamming into Dracula Magma's ribs with a crack, the blade piercing flesh, blood splattering, and the sound of bones shattering clearly audible.

Mirajane entered her demonic dual-soul form, her dark magic transforming into sharp blades. With the opening created by Erza, the wound on Dracula Magma's body became so deep that the bone was visible.

Everyone was gathering their strongest magic, and the various colors of light intertwined, illuminating the collapsing underground labyrinth.

The magical torrent engulfed Dracula Mag.

After the light faded, the Earth Dragon collapsed to the ground, leaving only a body riddled with holes, which crumbled as its life force was exhausted.

In a secluded corner where no one was watching, Hope flicked his wrist, and with the 'Dragon Soul,' he captured Dracula Magna's dissipating soul.

How can we let a man-eating dragon die so easily?

Chapter 331 Secrets in Memory

The earth dragon's body, having lost its soul and power, completely disintegrated, turning into countless earth-yellow fragments scattered all over the ground. Earth-yellow magical particles danced in the dust like fireflies.

This time, the Earth Dragon was truly dead, turning into a pile of ordinary soil. And from within the soil, a beating heart rolled out.

The heart of Erevseria.

Hope bent down and picked up the heart, weighing it in her hand. "It's quite heavy."

The crowd gathered around, staring at the heart in Hope's hand, momentarily dazed. Their biggest goal for this trip had been achieved just like that.

"That's it?" Natsu scratched his head, looking incredulous. "I thought it was going to be a much more intense fight."

“Simple?” Lucy’s lips twitched. “If Hope hadn’t discovered the Earth Dragon’s weakness and destroyed those black gems, you would have been slapped to death by the Earth Dragon long ago.”

"Then he's not dead, is he?"

"..."

Lucy decided not to bother with this single-celled organism.

Although they managed to defeat the Earth God Dragon, which only possessed one-seventh of its power, everyone's magic power was nearing its limit. After the initial excitement wore off, they all belatedly realized how exhausted they were.

Erza walked over to Hope, looked at the square heart sealed inside, and said in a deep voice, "What do we do next?"

Hope shoved his heart back into the changing space. "What else can I do? Go back and report. That old man Elevseria is still waiting up there."

No sooner had the words left his mouth than the already crumbling maze collapsed.

"Run!" Erza reacted immediately.

Supporting each other, the group ran frantically towards the exit of the maze. Hope, still leisurely trailing behind, would occasionally glance back with interest at the gradually collapsing maze.

While Dracula Magma may not be the strongest among the dragons, his environmental destructive power is comparable to that of a major natural disaster. Even the magic that dissipated after his death could trigger a massive earthquake that could affect the entire continent of Giltina.

Triggering a deathrattle effect is considered a deathrattle.

Fortunately, everything was under Hope's watchful eye, and with a little effort, he stabilized the ground that was about to shake violently.

The moment everyone rushed out of the entrance, the entire ground behind them collapsed with a deafening roar, forming a massive sinkhole. Dust billowed up, obscuring the sky.

As the smoke and dust gradually dissipated, the crowd gasped for breath, looked at each other, and then burst into cheers.

"We won! We won!"

Natsu raised his fist, extremely excited, "I'm exhausted... But this time we really defeated a dragon with our own hands!"

"What do you mean by 'personally'?" Erza plopped down on the ground, completely disregarding her image. "If it weren't for Hope turning the Earth God Dragon into a dog, we wouldn't even have been able to break its skin."

Laxus nodded in agreement, a rare occurrence. "Although I hate to admit it, we really relied on him this time."

Everyone turned to look at Hope, the last one to emerge from the dust.

"Hey, why are you all looking at me?" Hope walked over with a smile. "This time you got to slay the dragon with your own hands, how do you plan to repay me?"

"Who's going to thank you?!" Kana couldn't help but complain. "You could have just taken down the Earth Dragon directly, but now we're all suffering from backaches and are exhausted."

"You can't say that," Hope said seriously. "I'm developing your teamwork skills. Look, after this battle, your coordination has clearly improved, hasn't it?"

Natsu thought about it seriously for a moment, then nodded emphatically, "That makes sense!"

Gray sighed, "Can't you have a little more of your own opinion? Our guild members are always very coordinated when we team up to fight monsters..."

Hope glanced at the disheveled group and said, "In any case, this battle was a resounding success. That old man Elevseria should be satisfied now, right?"

No sooner had the words been spoken than an old man's laughter came from behind them.

"Haha, I'm satisfied, very satisfied!"

Everyone turned around and saw that Elevseria had appeared there at some point, with the traveler crow, Sunshadow, standing beside her. Hope tossed him the heart contained in the magic crystal, and explained Dracula Mag's plan in the process.

"I see. That explains why no other dragons came to bother us after we defeated the Earth Dragon."

Elevseria smiled as he accepted the heart that had been lost for a century, his eyes filled with admiration as he looked at the group of young people before him. "You not only helped me retrieve my heart, but you also dealt with Dracula Mag. I, this old man, will remember this kindness."

Hope waved his hand, "Forget about favors, just remember the reward you promised me."

Elevseria nodded. Now that his heart had returned, his abilities had reached a new level. Even the legendary, ethereal gods could be tracked down with a full-force search using his powers.

After resting for a while, everyone packed up and left.

As for where to go, of course it's the seaside town of Elmina, or maybe the old man Erefseria's lair filled with the resentment of being single.

......

......

On a night in the continent of Kiltina, starlight spills into the courtyard of a guesthouse in Elmina.

After returning from the underground labyrinth, everyone washed off the dust and could finally collapse onto the soft sofa.

Natsu was already fast asleep, clutching Happy, while Lucy rubbed her aching arms, meticulously recording every detail of the mission. Surprisingly, Gray was still wearing his clothes...

Canaan got Laxus and Gajeel drinking, and almost drank the two Dragon Slayer Mages under the table by herself. Even the proud Laxus had to admit defeat in terms of drinking capacity.

Hope sat on the windowsill, the moonlight gilding him with a silvery edge, toying with a yellowish-brown ball of light that resembled a lizard in his hand.

Wearing a nightgown, Mirajane lay on his back and asked curiously, "What is this? I noticed you've been focused on it all night."

“Oh, this thing.” Hope shook the ball of light. “It’s the soul of the Earth Dragon.”

Erza was drawn in. "You actually captured Dracula Magma's soul?"

"It was Senior Reis's 'Dragon Soul', otherwise I really wouldn't know what to do about a soul that was about to dissipate."

Hope imprisoned Dracula Mag's soul not only because he didn't want the evil dragon to die so easily, but also because he wanted to use the Earth Dragon's memories to find information about the Gold Dragon and his secret conspiracy with the Fire Dragon.

The soul controlled by the 'Dragon Soul' has no self-awareness and can only be manipulated by the spellcaster. Hope easily connected to the soul of the Earth God Dragon using the 'Memory' magic.

Scenes from the Earth Dragon's past flashed by like a revolving lantern. When he saw one particular memory, Hope's expression changed, then he revealed a playful smile.

So that's how it is. This is the plan of the Flame Dragon and the Earth Dragon.

That's really scary.

Chapter 332 Humans and Dragons Share the Seat

After a night's rest.

The sea breeze of Elmina caressed the tranquil town, and the waves crashed against the rocks with a rhythmic lapping. The Fairy Tail crew enjoyed a peaceful night's sleep.

The following morning, sunlight pierced through the clouds, illuminating the white buildings of the town of Elmina. A gentle sea breeze carried a salty, damp scent, and the shimmering sea surface looked as if it were sprinkled with shards of gold.

Lucy yawned as she got out of bed, opened the window, and was greeted by the salty sea breeze. She took a deep breath and stretched.

I slept really well last night... Although my muscles are still a bit sore, it's much better than when I just finished fighting the Earth Dragon.

"Lucy—! Wake up—!"

Natsu's roar came from outside the door, shaking the windows.

"Okay, okay!" Lucy replied helplessly and began to wash up and change her clothes.

When she came downstairs, she found that everyone had already gathered in the living room to eat breakfast. What caught her eye was the Iron Character Set Meal that Levy had specially made for Gajeel. It was crunchy and delicious. If everyone had the teeth, they would have wanted to go up and try it too.

Hope was sitting by the window, leisurely sipping coffee prepared by Mirajane, with a plate of delicate pastries in front of her.

"Hey, Lucy, good morning."

Hope waved to the blonde girl, "Come and have breakfast, there's an important event later."

What activity?

"Let's go visit the Water Dragon's home."

Lucy blinked, wondering if she'd misheard. "Um, aren't we bothering Melkkobia too much by going to his house every few days...?"
