Chapter 505: True Time Magic (Third Update)
"It seems Sherry and the others have failed. Now, I'll personally send you on your way!"
Leo saw Gray and the Fairy Tail mages reappear and frowned. He left a few people to continue the Moon Drop ritual and charged forward.
At that moment, a short, masked mage who had been hiding in the crowd quietly left the temple rooftop and hid in the shadows, muttering to himself:
"This is bad. I didn't expect the Fairy Tail people to react so quickly. Leo and those useless ones probably can't handle them!"
Meanwhile, Erza and the others were not about to back down. Erza changed into her magnificent Celestial Wheel Armor, Natsu's body was engulfed in dragon flames, Gray assumed the starting stance for Ice-Make Magic, and Lucy summoned the Taurus Spirit, Taurus.
Just as both sides were about to clash in a fierce Magic battle on the temple rooftop, Jerry used a Phantom Shift to instantly appear between them and shouted:
"Don't rush into the fight! I have a bold idea that you might want to hear before deciding to battle!"
Seeing Jerry intervene, Erza and the others, though puzzled, trusted Jerry and immediately halted their prepared Magic.
On the other side, Leo thought for a moment and also signaled his group of mages to stop advancing.
For him, any delay that allowed the Moon Drop ritual to continue for a bit longer was beneficial.
Seeing both sides stop, Jerry cleared his throat and said:
"Perhaps, I can try to bring the late Uru back to life!"
"What?"
"How is that possible?"
"That's impossible!"
The first two voices belonged to Gray and Leo, while the last one came from the masked, short mage hiding in the shadows.
"You know, I have some knowledge of Time Magic. If my theory is correct, I should be able to rewind the time of the demon Daleohra and the time when Uru sealed it, back to ten years ago.
This way, Uru can be restored from the Ice Prison to her human form."
After explaining to Erza and the others, he turned to Leo and continued:
"If Uru is resurrected to her human form, Daleohra will also be restored to its peak state from ten years ago. This will give you the chance to face it in a one-on-one battle."
Hearing Jerry's words, everyone on both sides was stunned.
Erza and the others had come to stop Leo from resurrecting the terrifying demon Daleohra and to lift the curse on the villagers. Daleohra was not just a curse demon; it was a powerful existence that even the Ten Wizard Saints couldn't defeat.
However, Jerry now offered another suggestion: to resurrect Uru, but at the cost of releasing Daleohra in its peak state from ten years ago.
This put them in a difficult position.
Rationally, they shouldn't release a demon as terrifying as Daleohra, as it could cause a catastrophic disaster.
Emotionally, Uru was Gray's teacher, and the initial reason Gray joined Fairy Tail was to find a way to break the Ice Prison and save Uru.
"Of course, we should save her. I really want to fight that Daleohra!"
After a moment, Natsu raised his hand and voiced his opinion.
"Right!"
Happy agreed.
"Although it's definitely scary, with all of us, we might be able to handle it."
Lucy, trembling, still cast her vote in favor.
And finally, Erza, after a moment of struggle, firmly declared:
"Although this is highly irrational, we, the mages of Fairy Tail, never abandon any of our companions."
"Everyone!"
Gray's eyes were a bit moist.
When Jerry mentioned that he could revive Uru, Gray was, of course, fully in agreement. However, he was no longer the naive young man he was ten years ago. He couldn't think only of himself; he understood the terrifying power of Daleohra.
That's why he hesitated. He was afraid that the upcoming battle would put his friends in mortal danger.
"If you can truly revive Uru and bring Daleohra back, then I agree to your plan!"
On the other side, Leo also made his decision.
Three years ago, he led all the mages who had lost loved ones to Daleohra, forming the current team and moving the ice-encased Daleohra to this island.
The goal was to melt the Ice Prison and truly kill Daleohra.
Surpassing Uru had been his lifelong dream. Proving his strength by defeating Daleohra and surpassing the deceased Uru was what he originally considered his greatest goal.
But when he heard that Uru could be revived, he realized that melting the Ice Prison and killing Daleohra was merely to avenge his most revered Master, Uru.
"Reviving Uru and Daleohra with Time Magic? That's impossible. The Arc of Time can't affect living beings at all; it's simply too naive.
Besides, what you have isn't the real Arc of Time, just something with a bit of Time Magic properties, capable of repairing some structures."
At that moment, a short, masked mage hiding in the shadows listened to Jerry's words from the temple roof, his face showing utter disdain.
After both sides reached an agreement, Leo ordered the mages to stop the Moon Drop magic ritual and let Jerry approach the cave entrance.
"So this is Daleohra?"
Jerry arrived at the large hole on the temple roof, not immediately casting Time Magic but looking down at Daleohra below.
At that moment, Daleohra was encased in a thick layer of ice, appearing to be only about ten meters tall, with a barely detectable life force, as if on the verge of death.
Compared to the Curse Demon, which was over three hundred meters tall, the Catastrophe Demon Daleohra was only about ten meters in height. However, in terms of rumored strength, Daleohra far surpassed the Curse Demon.
Sometimes, bigger doesn't mean stronger.
"Since I need to turn back time to ten years ago, I will have to cast Time Magic for at least ten hours. Try not to disturb me!"
After giving a few instructions to Erza, Leo, and the others, Jerry floated above the cave entrance and called out:
"Time Magic—Reversal!"
Compared to the Time Magic that affects the laws of time to send someone back in time, the process of stopping, reversing, or accelerating time for a specific object, being, or area is much simpler.
Whether it's from Harry Potter, Kamar-Taj, or the magic system of Clover, there are many such spells to draw from.
Moreover, Jerry had focused much of his energy on Time Magic over the years. While reversing time for Uru and Daleohra to ten years ago was challenging, it wasn't too difficult.
In his ring world, in the area dedicated to cultivating Kree Zombies, he had been using Time Magic to accelerate time, helping them evolve quickly.
He had the experience!
