Chapter 711: Fairy Tail vs. Tower of Paradise
Chapter 711: Fairy Tail vs. Tower of Paradise
Above a vast stretch of ocean in Aslante, inside a massive airship.
Hades looked at the dimming crystal ball and couldn't help but close his eyes, muttering:
"Mavis, is it really you?"
That year, he was full of confidence and went with Yuri and Volod to Wolf Sky Island to seek the legendary Wolf Sky Jade. That year, he met the girl who would capture his heart forever, Mavis.
Mavis was beautiful, lively, kind, and intelligent. She, like him, loved reading magic books and studying and inventing magic.
Unfortunately, he wasn't as handsome as Yuri and had lost an eye in battle, feeling he didn't deserve someone as perfect as Mavis, who was like a fairy. So, he buried his love deep in his heart.
Later, when Yuri found his own love, Hades thought he finally had a chance. But to his surprise, Mavis disappeared after Yuri's son was born and his wife died.
A year later, she reappeared, but only as a half-dead person, barely alive, left at the guild's doorstep by Jellal.
Hades spent three years trying to revive Mavis, only to discover that she was under the legendary curse of the Ankhseram god.
He didn't know how to tell his friend Yuri or Volod, who also had a crush on Mavis, so he publicly declared Mavis dead and built an empty tomb for her on Wolf Sky Island, where they had first met.
In secret, he studied a vast amount of dark magic, trying every possible method to break the curse and resurrect Mavis.
During this time, he discovered that the faint life signs in Mavis's body were not from her but because she was pregnant.
After separating Mavis's child from her body, he felt a complex mix of emotions and ultimately decided to abandon the child, leaving it to fend for itself.
Three more years passed, and his friend Yuri died from grief over the loss of his wife and Mavis. Volod became increasingly silent, and the guild was left with only Hades to run it.
Thirty years later, after countless attempts, Mavis's body had not only failed to resurrect but had transformed into the eternal magic known as the Fairy Heart.
At this point, he realized that with his current magic level, he could never resurrect Mavis.
So, he passed the guild master position to Yuri's son, Makarov, and set out on a journey, hoping to find the magic to resurrect Mavis.
Another twenty years passed, and as his life neared its end, he still couldn't find the magic to resurrect Mavis. His mind began to turn extreme, and he chose to delve into dark magic to gain eternal life.
It was then that he understood that with his own power, he would never be able to resurrect Mavis. He needed to find his former teacher, the Dark Magic god Jellal, who had lived for centuries without dying, to usher in the Great Magic Era and possibly achieve his goal.
He began to form the Grimoire Heart guild, recruiting the Seven Fiends of Hell, and gradually putting his plan into action.
But today, someone claimed that Mavis had been resurrected. Although his rational mind told him it was impossible, his heart refused to ignore it.
"Bruno, gather the other members of the Seven Fiends of Hell. We are heading to the Tower of Paradise!"
Hades, emerging from his memories, slowly opened his eyes and commanded.
A figure clad in a white coat and with a very muscular build stepped out of the darkness:
"Yes, Master. I've said it before, there's no need for so many reservations. With just one order, I can lead the Seven Fiends of Hell to level all the magic guilds without you lifting a finger!"
"Go!"
Hades waved his hand, not bothering to explain further.
Bruno was indeed strong, and his Hypergravity Magic was used with great proficiency. However, as the former second-generation guild master, Hades knew that Fairy Tail wasn't as weak as he had imagined.
If it weren't for Gildarts, Mest, and Laxus being absent, he wouldn't have rushed to appear so urgently.
"It's coming, it's coming, it's bringing a massive wave of Magic Power!"
On the large wooden ship near the Tower of Paradise, Jerry and the others watched the colossal energy ball, carrying 2.7 billion Magic Power, hurtling toward the tower. They couldn't help but gasp in awe.
A 2.7 billion Magic Power aggregate was clearly much more than he had initially anticipated.
"Boom!"
The Spirit Magic Power collided with the Tower of Paradise, and a blinding light flashed, forcing everyone to close their eyes.
When everyone opened their eyes again, they were surprised to find that the Tower of Paradise was indeed as Jellal had described—intact and transformed into a Magic Crystal Tower, radiating Magic Power.
"Jerry, what do you think we should do now?"
Makarov asked Jerry for his opinion.
Although he was nominally the guild master, Makarov had effectively handed over the guild to Jerry. He felt that in the current situation, it was more appropriate for Jerry to make the decision.
"Let's go and confront Jellal!"
Jerry didn't hesitate, waving his hand to summon a gust of wind that lifted the large wooden ship from the sea and set it down on the island.
The 2.7 billion Magic Power crystal was now complete. There was no need for further delay. They needed to decisively defeat Jellal and his group, and remove the control Magic from his mind.
"Attack!"
Seeing Jerry and the others return, Jellal didn't hesitate and immediately ordered an attack.
The final form of the Tower of Paradise was complete, and all that was needed was Erza as a sacrifice to resurrect Zeref. There was no more time to waste.
"Jellal!"
Erza roared, wielding two large swords and flapping her Heavenly Wheel wings to charge at Jellal.
The other Fairy Tail members followed closely behind, each displaying their Magic and joining the fray.
Only the three guild masters—the first, third, and future fourth—walked slowly at the back.
The first generation, Mavis, had been instructed by Jerry not to use powerful Magic, so she didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble.
The third generation felt that the situation wasn't serious enough to warrant the intervention of a soon-to-retire old man, especially with Jerry nearby.
As for the future fourth generation Jerry, his focus was on the 2.7 billion Magic Power crystal of the Tower of Paradise. As for the battle, he would just ensure that no one died, treating it as a sparring session.
After all, in this world, most mages improve through combat, and such opportunities were rare.
Honestly, Jerry believed that even without his intervention, the Fairy Tail mages might not lose.
While the opposing side had Jellal, one of the Ten Saints, and the Three Ravens, three S-Class mages, Fairy Tail had Uru, Erza, Natsu, Gray, Gajeel, and Juvia, who could also reach or surpass S-Class when they burst into action.
Moreover, there was a traitor who had already seen through Jellal's scheme.
