Even if the mysterious person's magic power could withstand it, during the period when 'Dragon Taming' was in effect, mental energy would be consumed rapidly. Not to mention ordinary people, even Hope could not withstand such a loss of mental energy.
Unless there is something or magic that can greatly enhance the mysterious man's mental power, controlling the Dragon King is just wishful thinking.
"President, please rest assured. Just know that no matter what that mysterious person wants to do, with me here, she won't be able to cause any trouble."
Makarov looked at Hope's confident face, remained silent for a moment, and then smiled, "That's right, with you here, what do I have to worry about?"
"Hey, as you get older, even your ambition fades, and you become indecisive."
Hearing Makarov's remark, Hope pursed his lips and remained silent. That old geezer is cunning; don't think I don't know he wants me to succeed him so you can go and have your fun.
Seeing that Hope wasn't taking the bait, Makarov had no choice but to abandon his acting.
It's all Hope's fault for keeping his body so healthy, which has forced him to postpone his retirement again.
Hope changed the subject, asking about the three children she had brought back, "How are Sting, Roger, and Yukino?"
When the three children were mentioned, Makarov's face immediately lit up with a satisfied smile. "Very good, very good."
"Stine and Roger's magical talent is truly remarkable, especially when they work together. Their chemistry is like that of brothers who grew up together."
"They were always like that..." Hope thought to herself.
"As for Yukino..."
Makarov stroked his beard. "Although she gave her Celestial Key to Lucy, the angelic magic you gave her is also very powerful."
"I already know about her background. I have sent a message to Mester and asked him to help contact the Council's Redemption Squad so that Yukino's sister can come and see her sister."
Hope nodded, having no objection to Makarov's arrangement, which he himself had originally intended to do as well.
"With Sting, Rogue, and Yukino joining the guild, plus Wendy, the next generation of the guild is pretty much secured," Makarov remarked, his wrinkles seeming to smooth out a bit.
Hope leaned back on the sofa, hands behind her head, looking at the magic lamp on the ceiling. "Now that I don't have to worry about the future of the guild, I should take care of what's next."
Makarov took the latest issue of a photo magazine out of the drawer, looked up at Hope, and asked, "What is it?"
"The Western Continent, the Alvarez Empire."
Hope sat up straight, her expression becoming more serious. "President, Zeref and I made a pact on Tenrou Island: if we had enough power to break the 'Contradictory Curse,' we would kill him."
Makarov took a deep breath, completely surprised that Hope had become so powerful that she was confident she could break a curse cast by a true god.
"But what about the original generation..."
"Hey, agreements are dead, but people are alive."
Hope laughed and said, "I didn't say I had to kill Zeref. With my current strength, getting rid of the curse in his body is no problem."
Upon hearing this, Makarov was no longer worried.
When do you plan to leave?
"In the next few days."
Hope thought for a moment, "Before going to the Western Continent, I need to make some preparations, and I also need to bring some companions with me to Alvarez."
How can we go find Jelf without Mavis?
Hope promised Erza she would accompany her to Alvarez to see Erin. The mother and daughter, whose fates have been fraught with hardship, are finally going to be reunited. It's unknown whether they are ready.
Erza is going to the Western Continent, and Hope believes that he should treat his lovers equally, so he also wants to take Mirajane and Cana with him.
There's also Lucy, who was planning to go to the Western Continent this year. Her mother's servant and friend, Grami, was murdered in Ishgar, and she's going to find Grami's daughter and tell her the truth about Grami's death.
Lucy is going to the Western Continent, and the person she's teaming up with, a certain cat, will definitely shamelessly insist on coming along.
Since Natsu can go, his arch-rival Gray naturally won't miss the opportunity to go to the Alvarez Empire, and Juvia, with whom he has already established a romantic relationship, will naturally too...
After Juvia, there are Gajeel and Levy.
Thinking of this, Hope couldn't help but take a breath.
If you calculate it all, he'll probably bring a lot of people with him on his trip to the Western Continent.
Since that's the case, Hope has decided that, following the North Continent tour group, the West Continent tour group can also begin.
"President, let's go on a group trip to Alvarez!"
Chapter 393 A Desperate Future
At the same time that Hope organized another tour group.
The southernmost point of the three continents: East, West, and North.
There is an island that no one knows about.
The trees here are so tall they block out the sun, and vines coil around their trunks like giant pythons. The ground is covered with a thick layer of fallen leaves, and the decaying plants emit a damp and rotten smell.
Sunlight could barely penetrate the layers of tree canopy, and the depths of the rainforest were shrouded in dim light year-round, with a depressing silence pervading the air.
There were no birdsong, no insect chirps, not even the rustling of leaves in the wind.
It was as if all living things felt a terrifying sense of oppression and instinctively fled the area.
The harsh natural environment and dense forests have greatly amplified the island's magnetic field, thus interfering with the world's magnetic field and making the island's existence imperceptible to the outside world.
Even a powerful magnetic field cannot detect this place.
The power of nature is so unreasonable.
And at the deepest part of the island...
Acnologia is located within a stone mountain that cannot be detected by any magic.
Inside the hidden mountainside, four colossal dragons were simultaneously pressing a massive black shadow, no smaller than themselves, to the ground. However, the black shadow's aura was in no way weaker than any of the dragons present.
Even stronger.
Because he is—Acunorokia.
The King of Dragons, the natural enemy of the dragon race, the ultimate goal of Dragon Slayers, and the strongest being in this world.
But at this moment, he was pinned to the ground, his limbs held down by four dragons.
Water God Dragon Melkkobia.
Luna Dragon Selene.
Flame God Dragon Ignia.
And Faron Erevseria.
Four dragon kings simultaneously pressed down on Acnologia, each using their full power to suppress one of his limbs, rendering him unable to move.
While he may be immune to magic, it doesn't mean he's stronger than four dragon kings combined.
Acnologia lay sprawled on the ground, his black dragon scales reflecting a cold gleam in the fluorescent light. His limbs were firmly held down by four giant dragons, and he couldn't even lift his head.
But his attention was focused on an inconspicuous corner deep inside the cave.
There stood a person dressed in full black armor.
She stood there quietly, her mechanical right arm holding a magic wand that emitted an eerie glow.
The gem at the tip of the wand was flashing with a scarlet magical light, corresponding to the scarlet eyes of the four dragons: Water, Moon, Fire, and Magic.
"So that's how it is. That magic wand can actually control dragons."
Acnologia saw through the effect of "Dragon's Cry" and scoffed, "You think you can use teleportation magic to move me to this godforsaken place and then let these four guys ambush me? You don't actually intend to control me with that broken wand, do you? I'm not like these four pieces of trash on me."
As soon as he finished speaking, Acnologia's body jolted violently.
A terrifying surge of magical energy erupted from his body, sweeping outwards like a tsunami.
The four dragons simultaneously let out a muffled groan, their bodies swaying under the force. The mysterious man did not answer, but simply raised his magic wand slightly.
The gem at the top of the "Dragon's Cry" emitted a dazzling light.
The four dragons froze simultaneously, their eyes growing even more hollow, as if their last vestige of self-awareness had been completely erased.
They unleashed all their magic power simultaneously and intensified their suppression, which Acnologia quickly suppressed again.
However, even with the Four Dragon Kings going all out, they were unable to completely suppress Acnologia, who was beginning to display his power.
The mysterious person had anticipated this, and a magic card slowly opened in her hand, transforming into a large, reddish-copper pot shaped like a dragon's head.
The Dragon Clan Sealing Jar has been activated!
In an instant, Acnologia felt his burst of magic power being sealed off.
Even a powerful black dragon like him couldn't break free from the strange 'card' magic restrictions for a time.
The mysterious figure slowly walked forward and stopped in front of Acnologia. His face, hidden beneath his helmet, was expressionless, but his eyes, visible through the gaps...
Acnologia felt like she had seen those eyes somewhere before.
What exactly do you want to do?
Acunorokia asked, his voice still calm.
Although he was the one being suppressed, the mysterious man's actions clearly indicated that he was not there to kill him, but for another purpose.
The mysterious man was silent for a moment, then spoke in a hoarse and deep voice, making it impossible to discern his gender or age.
"You don't need to know what I want to do."
"All you need to know is that you are the most important part of this plan."
Acnologia narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze passing over the mysterious man and landing on the four giant dragons that had completely lost their self-awareness.
Water Dragon, Moon Dragon, Flame Dragon, Magic Dragon...
The four dragon kings were completely controlled by "Dragon's Cry" and became puppets of the mysterious man before them.
"So you control me just like you control them?"
"That's... ridiculous."
Acnologia completely disregarded "Dragon's Cry," thinking this person dared to try to enslave him, unaware that he was immune to magic.
"Magic can't do anything to you unless a miracle happens."
Then, the mysterious man took out a translucent round stone from the magical space, "But I'm sorry, I've already caught the 'miracle'."
"Acnologia, your weakness lies in your soul. Let the Philosopher's Stone, the end of alchemy and a miracle, help you get some rest."
