The next morning, Caesar took Selene to the continent of Giltina.
As for Athena, Caesar left her with Mirajane.
He asked Mirajane to look after her daily needs.
Of course, Caesar also brought Igneel along.
After all, Igneel was Ignia's biological father.
Although Igneel said he would beat him if needed, it would be better if things could be settled peacefully.
With that thought, Caesar led Selene and Igneel to the Dragon of the Magic Array.
The area was still filled with dense magic.
The magic array dragon was still in ruins.
When they entered the building, they were met by Erevseria.
His expression was extremely serious.
"Something happened?"
Seeing that look, Caesar immediately understood the situation had changed.
"Dracula Mag, whom I killed before, has been resurrected."
"He took my heart and joined forces with Ignia."
Erevseria spoke directly.
He did not hide the bad news.
"Because of Dracula Mag's resurrection, the Great Labyrinth collapsed."
"It has turned into a massive lake."
"Nearly five hundred explorers were swallowed and killed."
"The Dragon Eater Guild Diablos has also become active."
"They have been searching for you across the continent."
"They have come here several times."
"I defeated them each time."
"What a feast."
A loud voice suddenly rang out.
Dust filled the air.
George and his entire guild appeared inside the magic array.
He licked his lips greedily.
His eyes were fixed on Caesar.
"It smells wonderful."
"I will devour you little by little."
"Otherwise it is too boring."
"Shut up."
Caesar raised his hand.
A white beam shot out.
George's head vanished instantly.
His body collapsed to the ground.
"…Who is this?"
Caesar looked confused.
He stared at the headless corpse.
"President."
"That guy."
"Attack together."
George's death enraged the others.
They rushed toward Caesar.
Boom.
Terrifying magic erupted.
Everyone from Diablos was crushed to the ground.
They could not move at all.
"Dragon Soul."
Among them, a thin man was unaffected.
Dragon shaped energy burst from the ground.
It lunged at Caesar and the others.
The dragon energy shattered instantly.
Caesar twisted space.
He compressed the man into a sphere and captured him.
"A bodyless soul."
"That is interesting."
"I will study him later."
Caesar then looked at Erevseria.
His mouth was wide open.
"By the way."
"What were you saying earlier?"
"It is fine now."
Erevseria shook his head quickly.
George was killed instantly.
The others were completely suppressed.
There was nothing left to worry about.
But Caesar was still curious.
"What exactly is that Dracula Mag?"
Before Erevseria could speak, Selene stepped forward.
"Dracula Mag was once one of the Six Divine Dragons."
"He was the Earth God Dragon."
"After being defeated by Erevseria, his power became the Great Labyrinth."
"As for Erevseria's heart."
"It contains dragon power and memories."
"If I am not wrong."
"Ignia and Dracula Mag are using it to search for Athena."
"Athena is a true dragon slaying weapon."
"If they controlled her, it would be ideal for them."
Selene smiled faintly.
"But there is no need to worry."
"Athena belongs to Fairy Tail now."
"If they dare touch Fairy Tail."
"Caesar will tear off their claws."
"What is Ignia really trying to do?"
Igneel clicked his tongue.
He felt his son was planning something extreme.
"I have some guesses."
Selene spoke slowly.
"I once wanted to kill all dragons."
"I wanted a world with only humans."
"So I could live as one."
"Ignia is the opposite."
"He wants a world with only dragons."
"He wants dragons to reclaim their glory."
Hearing this, Igneel covered his face.
This felt like pure rebellion.
Caesar glanced at Igneel.
They exchanged a look.
They clearly thought the same thing.
Silently, Caesar pulled out a restraint from his belt.
He handed it to Igneel.
Igneel looked confused.
"Take it."
"It will be useful."
Caesar sighed.
"Kids calm down after a good beating."
"This one stuns them without damaging the brain."
Igneel shook his head.
"You are too weak."
He patted the rope at his waist.
"I made this from shed scales and worn claws."
"It is sturdier."
"Enough."
Selene walked toward the Diablos members pinned to the ground.
She stopped in front of a swordsman.
A familiar aura came from him.
Kurnuki.
The Sword Saint Dragon.
Her son.
"You ate Kurnuki?"
Selene's voice turned cold.
Caesar slightly reduced his pressure.
The man barely managed to speak.
"Yes."
"The guild master defeated him."
"I ate the dragon."
"Do you want revenge?"
Caesar asked calmly.
"…No."
Selene shook her head.
Dragons lived by natural selection.
Kurnuki's death meant he was not strong enough.
As for revenge.
The one who killed Kurnuki was already dead.
Caesar erased him instantly.
There was no one left to blame.
Selene glanced at Caesar.
Her eyes were full of resentment.
If he had not acted so fast.
She would have crushed George herself.
But she was too slow.
That was the only outcome.
