Fairy Tail Space Mage

“I’ve said it before, I will stand by my mother’s side, Lord Hyberion.” August’s tone returned to its indifferent state; he was only polite to those connected to his mother.

The other three of the Four Heavenly Kings, especially Hyberion, have no connection with Fairy Tail and may even become enemies in the future, so there's no need to give them a friendly look.

Chapter 818 The Protoss Stand Up

“You… no, what that young lady just said, that Lord Kong is terrifying, could it be that he is so strong that even the ‘Collapsed Kingdom’ is…” Jura couldn’t help but ask.

Unlike those guys who like to pry into other people's family relationships and private gossip.

Jura was more concerned about whether the war could be won and whether the people of the Kingdom of Fiore could be freed from the threat of war as soon as possible.

It is probably because of this genuine concern for ordinary people that the members of "Snake Scale" admire Jura so much, and "Snake Scale" has become one of the few magic guilds with the most harmonious relationship with the local citizens.

"Kong's strength has always been strong, and it will definitely be even stronger now!" An unexpected figure, Anna, suddenly appeared.

“Miss Anna… I’m sorry to have shown you how disheveled we are.” Hayberion turned around and said with some shame.

"It's nothing. Everyone is just trying to stop the war." Anna gently shook her head.

“Ancestors!” Lucy was pleasantly surprised and quickly ran to Anna’s side, patting her chest, feeling much more at ease.

Although Brandish had just revealed many shocking secrets, Lucy found it hard to believe precisely because they were so shocking. At times like this, having a reliable elder by her side was much more reassuring.

"This is Anna?" Brandish had seen Anna once before in the Protoss memories.

Looking at it now, it has to be said that Lucy's ancestor really does resemble Lucy in appearance. Maybe even more so than Leila.

Moreover, her magic is extremely powerful.

She feels like an enhanced version of Lucy.

"Good morning, madam." Although he didn't know Anna, since Lucy referred to her as an ancestor, and Brandish knew her, the old man greeted her politely.

"Good morning, sir," Anna returned the greeting politely, appearing both elegant and gentle.

Celestial Spirit Mages were far more mysterious and noble in ancient times than they are in modern times.

Anna was the greatest Celestial Spirit Mage of that era; her temperament, manners, and upbringing were all impeccable.

Even the Fiore royal family is actually a close relative of the Anna family. They have been able to continue ruling Fiore to this day thanks to the Anna family.

At the same time, this is also one of the reasons why Kong almost succumbed to the allure of a gentle life in another world.

"Hey, you bald guy, you just asked how strong Kong is. As a mage of Ishgar and one of the Four Heavenly Kings, don't you know how dangerous he is?" Brandish lost interest in her grandfather and Anna after they finished greeting each other and turned to answer Jura's question.

"Well, because no one has ever seen him use his full power, and his concealment magic is just too amazing."

“Although I don’t know how powerful he is, there is no doubt that I felt the threat of death emanating from him. In this world, there has only ever been one person who could give me this kind of threat, and that is my father,” Auguste suddenly spoke up to explain on behalf of Brandish.

"Is he really comparable to the legendary Dark Mages? But if that's the case, will he...?" Hyberion, as the de facto leader of the Magic Council, has a mindset completely in line with the Council's model.

But those present were all intelligent people, and they didn't particularly like Hyberion's reaction.

"Kong wouldn't. He once protected this world, and for that, he paid a huge price. If it weren't for him, there would be no need for any war between you now, because the entire world would have been destroyed by the dragons."

"Is what you're saying... all true?" Urufheim asked hesitantly.

It wasn't that he didn't believe Anna's words, but rather that what she said was too shocking.

Little did he know that his question would make Anna very angry.

She slammed her staff into the ground, her expression turning solemn and dignified.

"In the name of the Seven Sages of Humanity 400 years ago, Anna Heartfelt, a member of the Human Guardian Alliance, the Guardian of the Stars, and the contractor of the Celestial Spirit King, swears that everything I just said is true and without any falsehood!"

As Anna's magic surged, the entire world instantly turned from day to night.

The stars in the sky began to twinkle joyfully as Anna uttered each word. The enormous, majestic, and heavily armored phantom of the Celestial King appeared behind Anna, followed by the twelve zodiac signs, and finally, the sky was filled with all sorts of Celestials that Lucy had never seen or recognized before!

Most importantly, under these circumstances, Anna's magic power rose to a new level, reaching a point where she could rival August!

Everyone present was startled!

Lucy was deeply shocked by this!

She clenched her fists, her eyes sparkling with admiration for her ancestors at that moment!

She didn't know that Anna's increased magic power was a normal phenomenon at this time, and that the Celestial King and the Celestial Spirits creating phantoms to show up was just to give them face.

The Protoss are very knowledgeable and also quite free.

They thought it was fun to join in the fun!

However, Aquarius looked very uncomfortable, as if she had been caught taking Lucy and Brandish to the memory space and was being publicly executed.

In reality, Anna couldn't possibly be this powerful.

But ironically, in another timeline, due to the interference of space, Anna is now just as powerful.

Obviously, everyone knows that Sora prefers strong women.

And Anna in this timeline also benefited from this, becoming much more powerful for no reason!

In fact, the Protoss Realm exists outside of any timeline. It is extremely mysterious and complex, and may even be another form of alien magic.

This is also why, during the previous Grand Magic Games, both the transmigrator Lucy from the original work and the current Lucy encountered inexplicable phenomena.

(For ease of distinction, the world of the original story will be referred to as World Line A, and the world of this novel will be referred to as World Line B.)

In the original work, in this world, which is the B timeline, during the Grand Magic Games, the Eclipse Gate was secretly opened by the royal family, who were completely out of their minds. Then, countless dragons from 400 years ago came to this era through the Eclipse Gate and almost destroyed this world!

In this world, Natsu is dead, Fairy Tail has collapsed, Levy has lost an eye and an arm, Gray has become a demon and killed the cat Flossie, Sting is dead, Rogue has turned evil... In short, the dragons rule this world, Fairy Tail no longer exists, this is a bad end!

Meanwhile, Lucy from World B, shortly after the dragon invasion, was unexpectedly transported to World A under the protection of Natsu from World B. There, she helped Lucy and Natsu defeat Black Rogue and several dragons, destroying the Eclipse Gate and preventing World A from suffering the same fate.

But she herself died, and in her last moments, she was reunited with Natsu and the rest of Fairy Tail in a hallucination.

This forms the storyline of the original Grand Magic Games arc.

But probably few people have considered just how tragic it was that Fairy Tail was wiped out in World B, and even Lucy died in World A.

Chapter 819 Behind the War

Fortunately, I've now been transported to World B and grown up here.

Because of Sora's actions, World B was not invaded by the dragons, but Lucy still shared some memories with Lucy from World A on the day of the eclipse.

There are some speculations about the origins of the two Lucys facing the sky and his series of actions.

These speculations were further supplemented after talking with Anna.

That's why Anna is so protective of Kong's reputation and will never allow anyone to doubt his contribution to saving the world!

……

"It's truly astonishing. I never imagined that such a powerful figure as you would be hidden on the continent of Ishgar. We've really been living in a well. 'The Four Heavenly Kings of Ishgar,' haha, what a laughable title!" Hyberion, after recovering from his shock, couldn't help but feel somewhat resigned.

"Yes... Look at the commotion around us. We've probably never even gotten a clear picture of Fairy Tail's strength."

"I am deeply ashamed, but judging from your self-identification, you seem to be from a different era? And the dragons..."

"Yes, I come from 400 years ago, arriving in this era through a complex and dangerous magic. You probably can't fully comprehend the terror of dragons, but having lived 400 years ago, I know it better than anyone..."

In those days, humans were merely livestock domesticated by dragons, destined to become their food upon reaching adulthood, and many didn't even survive to adulthood. After all, while dragons had long lifespans, they were always lacking in patience…

Later, the dragon race, who advocated coexistence, and a mage from the continent of Ishgar, Lady Irene of the Twelve Shields, jointly created Dragon Slayer Magic, which gave humanity the power to fight against the dragons. Anna is very patient; she was patient even when she was young. She loved telling stories, so children all liked her.

"It's Irene! Scarlet Horror? She actually existed 400 years ago, and she's a mage from the continent of Ishgar?" Everyone felt that the gossip they were dreading today was getting bigger and bigger, and they were even a little overwhelmed!

What exactly happened in this war?

Something feels off!

"Yes, Lady Eileen was once the queen of a human kingdom, always on the front lines fighting against the brutal dragons. The Seven Sages and the Human Guardians Alliance both tried to invite her to join, but she refused. Later, her kingdom was destroyed, and she disappeared without a trace. Surprisingly, she's still alive today. But why is she…?"

"You've said too much, little Celestial Spirit Mage!" Suddenly a voice interrupted Anna. Everyone turned to look and saw Irene and Erza walking towards them together, like sisters.

"Lady Irene!" Brandish exclaimed guiltily.

"Elsa!" Lucy exclaimed in surprise.

The rest of the crowd also stared intently at the two, their expressions varied.

"You've done a good job, August, but are you really sure it's okay to keep them tied up like this and treat your own people like this? And that little Celestial Spirit Mage over there, don't tell these boring mortals all your secrets; it'll only make them miserable." Queen Irene was as arrogant and sharp-tongued as ever.

It seems that she hasn't changed much since reuniting with her daughter.

"Oh dear, it seems Lady Eileen has found her daughter. Congratulations! As for them, even though we are on the same side for now, they were the ones who took the initiative. So, even if I teach them a lesson, no one can object." The old man referred to himself as "this old man" for the first time, but he revealed his domineering aura.

Yes, although he was always very polite, don't forget that he is one of the strongest mages in the world!

Although there are two opponents on the field who can compete with him now, it's just a coincidence that he happened to run into them.

They are not cabbages.

At the same time, August may also have been warning Eileen.

He still couldn't figure out what this woman was thinking, and couldn't completely let his guard down around her.

Compared to him, Anna was much gentler.

"Lady Eileen, I'm so sorry for telling others about you without permission!"

"Hmph!" Eileen merely snorted, after all, this woman who appeared out of nowhere was now on the same level as her in terms of strength.

Seriously, that Kong Black, is he as dark as his surname? Just how many schemes has he been plotting behind the scenes?!

"Excuse me, are you currently standing on the empty side?" Anna asked again, unfazed by Eileen's coldness.

She was clever and clearly noticed Mr. August's wariness and reminders.

"Of course not, I'm just on my daughter's side. Besides, no matter how this war turns out, what's the point of taking sides if the ultimate goal can't be achieved?"

"Ultimate goal?" The Four Heavenly Kings suddenly heard an important keyword and, connecting it with previous intelligence, couldn't help but prick up their ears.

“Yes, at least Zeref told me that his purpose in taking the ‘Fairy Heart’ was to destroy the dragon,” Eileen replied easily.

“Is that so? Sora also told me that he would handle the Demon Dragon and that I shouldn’t worry. Actually, the purpose of me, the Dragon King, and the children coming to this era was to fight against the Demon Dragon,” Anna sighed.

“I think you’d better not get your hopes up too high. I happen to have been in contact with both of them. I have a feeling that they… probably don’t care about the dragon. They… probably have other purposes in this war,” Auguste suddenly said.

His words immediately silenced both Eileen and Anna.

As for those outside of them, they felt as if the conversation of the three had shrouded their vision in a thick fog, making everything they saw seem unreal and unknowable.

Before this, they had no idea that this war was hiding so many secrets.

The three strongest beings on both continents, besides the two humans and the dragon, seemed to have just had a veil lifted, revealing a bit of the truth of this war.
