[Fairy Tail] Link criss-cross

【twenty】

"If the R system is built, there is still a key step missing."

Facing Erza's questioning, Gerald smiled: "As I said, I will use you as a living sacrifice."

"Before that, there is another problem. The missing thing is magic power." Erza's face was solemn, "It takes a huge amount of magic power to activate such a large-scale magic. This is even if all the magisters on the road gather At the same time, it may not be able to gather enough magic power. It is impossible for this tower itself to contain so much magic power, and, you know that the council is attacking but you do not escape... What are you thinking?"

"It's still 3 minutes before Adilio falls."

Gerald ignored Erza's logical reasoning, and announced the time with a fanatical belief in his eyes that no one could understand.

"Geral! Your ideal has long been shattered!" Erza increased her strength to hold Gerald's arm, and asked angrily, "Is it your wish to die like this!!"

Gerald groaned in pain.

"Then I will die with you! My hand will not let go until the last moment!"

"Ah, that's not bad, either."

Erza froze.

"My body is possessed by Jeff's undead, and I don't listen to my control at all. Now I am just a puppet for resurrecting Jeff's body." Gerald's face was indistinguishable sadness .

"...Possessed?" The female knight repeated in a daze.

"I can't be on my own. No one among my companions can save me." Gerald turned his head helplessly, the loneliness in his eyes was obvious, "What kind of paradise, what kind of freedom, doesn't exist at all. Everything, before the beginning It's over."

The entire tower began to tremble continuously due to the huge magic power that was coming from the sky, and the fine stones kept falling.

"I know it's impossible to complete the R system, but Jeff's undead won't let me stop."

"It's impossible to stop."

"I'm like a broken car...Elusha, you won, let's settle it here."

Erza was startled, "...Eh?"

"That's why you're here."

The female knight's eyes were deep and full of complex emotions. Looking at Gerald who once again showed a gentle smile in front of her eyes, her thoughts were already in a mess.

【The boy with sky-blue hair stretched out his hand to her, and opened and closed his lips. 】

【"Eluza...well, let's call it Erza, Shukaletto."】

【"That means crimson."】

【"Me?...Ah, I'm Gerald."】

【She knew that it was her salvation. 】

The female knight slowly moved away from the sword pointing at her throat.

The ground is still shaking.

"I don't need to do anything at all." Erza put away her sword, "The satellite magic array has already unfolded in the sky."

She took advantage of the opportunity to loosen the grip on Gerald, and suddenly felt a sense of relief.

"It's over, you and I are all..."

Unrestrained Gerald slowly got up from the ground.

"It's really clumsy."

"You are also a victim of Jeff..."

"This is the sin of me who lost to my own weakness. Facing the huge gap between ideal and reality, I cannot accept it in my heart."

Erza turned her head and looked directly at Gerald who was blaming herself.

"Isn't it what your companions do to fill in the fragility and insufficiency of your heart?"

"Elsa..."

"I couldn't save you either...let's make atonement together." Erza said, turning her head to look at [Lopez] who was still holding the dagger, "but...it really hurt her .”

"I...have been redeemed."

The entire tower once again increased the magnitude of the vibration.

The two people who let go of their defenses on the ground embraced and watched the stones continue to fall.

Several layers of dazzling magic circles rotate above the tower.

The light beam that strangled everything in the world fell.

Ah, by the way, let's say, the ones who really let their guard down in this drama...

——From the beginning to the end, there was only the knight alone.

Consciousness begins to return.

She looked at herself still standing beside the broken round table.

The tower of Paradise under his feet has turned into a huge magic crystal.

She watched Ji Kelein of the council slowly walk towards Gerald, and was told that it was just a thought body.

She watched Erza being knocked down again and again by Gerald, who regained his magic power due to the recovery of the mind body.

She watched as Erza was immobilized by the curse seal, and then slowly merged into the magic crystal summoned by Gerald.

She watched as Natsu dragged Erza out of the magic crystal, and then declared war on Gerald.

She just watches.

Just, look at...

—Now, why do I feel heartache and sorrow, why am I relieved that she's out of danger, why do I want to help him?

——Hehe, it’s just an illusion.

——But this feeling is very strong and very real...

——No, this is an illusion.

——…

——You just have to watch and be selfish.Then wait until you wake up from the nightmare and feel extremely hopeless.

--yes……

When she came back to her senses again, she was already standing in front of Natsu.

She could clearly see the boy's eyes widened in astonishment, and she could clearly feel that he had restrained most of his strength the moment he exerted his strength so that he could withstand the temperature of the flames that brushed her cheeks.

"...Lopez?!...how come!?"

She could hear the unbelievable voice of the cherry-haired boy.

——My heart hurts... I really want to explain...it's not like this... [Natsu]? ……Eh?wrong.Who is this...?

—Lopez, don't worry about this.

--Eh?May I……?

——Well, of course you can.

——Thank you, [absolutely].

——Shhh... there's no need to say anything, just leave the rest to me.

Gerald seemed to have seen something extremely interesting, and laughed loudly: "How about it, Dragon Slayer? How does it feel to see your companion standing in front of you?!"

【Lopez】It is no longer the sluggishness when she was controlled just now, she twitched the corners of her mouth at Naz and showed a somewhat weird smile, which was unexpected against the backdrop of the faintly glowing magic crystals around her. flirtatious:

"It finally came out~★" Then she shook her arm that was still dripping blood because of carrying out Gerald's order to self-mutilate, "Tsk, I'm a bit embarrassed, you are really cruel, Gerald."

"Hehe... Well, anyway, you have control of your body now, don't you?" Gerald stepped aside, planning to watch the show.

The cherry-haired boy frowned, and his face became defensive: "Lopez?...No, no. Who are you!?"

"Hehehe, of course I'm not the little girl who is so innocent that anyone will give me some warmth without hesitation." [Lopez] smiled sarcastically, "I am the magic of the Eighteen Fighting Gods of Evil Demon [Extremely], Desperate Jue, how about it? It’s a good name.”

"What did you do to Lopez?!" Naz's face was full of anger at the possession of his companion's body.

"Who knows~ I have worked hard for nearly ten years to occupy this body. Since I came into contact with her, I have been trying my best to make her feel desperate and then let me out. I didn't expect that she was quite stubborn. I've held on for so long... Now I finally took possession of this body, what happens to her, I don't care~ ★" [absolutely] with one hand on her hip, smiling indifferently.

"You bastard..." Natsu fisted his fists with a vague expression, "I didn't care about letting you get out of the way, but now it seems that I should teach you a lesson for Lopez!"

After finishing speaking, Natsu rushed over, waving his scorching fists.

Jue dodged Natsu's attack, and bent her eyes: "I'm going to make a fuss too~ When she realizes that she killed her companion... Hahahahaha! This despair must be delicious!"

"No." Natsu clicked his tongue and stabilized his posture. A large flame ignited behind him, "She won't feel hopeless,"

The jumping fireworks exploded continuously in the air, and the firelight was extraordinarily warm under the reflection of the magic crystal. The cherry-haired boy had a determined face, and the checkered scarf fluttered in the wind.

"Because of me, I will never be killed by you."

Saying that, Natsu clenched his fists again and charged forward.

"The Wing Strike of the Fire Dragon!"

Jue Yin was a little lost in her words just now, and she was hit by Naz's attack without paying attention. She decisively used the wind control magic when her body flew back, and then waved her right hand, the pure black magic circle Instantly open.

"Are you kidding? You who said such things are as naive as she is! Well, anyway, I never expected what her so-called companion could do." Jue tilted her head pretending to be disappointed, and once again He opened his mouth, "But, do you really think so? I am a conscious body extended from the main body of magic. Unlike you humans, my compatibility with magic is 100%."

Facts have proved that Jue's words are correct.

After 3 minutes, Natsu has fallen to the ground under her attack.

Although Natsu's stamina and mana consumption were not high at all, he couldn't resist the series of attacks whose compatibility with magic was several times higher than normal.

What's more, this is [Evil Demon Eighteen Fighting God Magic].

This magic is...

Naz lay motionless on the ground, the repeated attacks and the thick sense of despair and gloom from the shadows in the attacks made it difficult for him to fight back for a while.

Jie Hao walked slowly in front of Naz in a leisurely manner, looking at him condescendingly, raised his right hand slightly, and the pure black magic power slowly moved the wind.

Natsu still didn't make any dodge movements.

"Oh, aren't you hiding this time? Kindly remind me that the attack this time is different from the previous ones~ The one used this time is the original—"

"—Murder magic."

After hearing this sentence, Natsu burst out laughing with a "poof".

Jue raised his eyebrows: "Why, is he dying even if his nerves are not normal?"

"No, I just think it's great that you used murder magic." Natsu restrained his smile, and looked straight at 【Jue】.

"...What do you mean?" Jue frowned, "...Well, forget it, you don't have much time anyway."

A huge magic circle suddenly unfolded in front of Jue, facing Natsu.

Exquisite and complex ancient magic words float faintly, and an eternal nightmare is about to strike.

"Lopez is different from you," Naz said suddenly, then paused, looking at the magic circle that was about to kill people not far away, with no fear in his eyes, "she will never use this kind of magic of."

"Her magic must be used only for her companions and family. Because,—"

Natsu grinned at the magical attack that was already charged and ready to launch, and smiled, his eyes bent, and his cherry red hair brushed his cheeks:

"She's the wizard from Fairy Tail!!"

This time, Natsu chose to trust her rather than fight alone.

"She will definitely stop you."

The author has something to say: 23333 Yes, I finally let [Jue] come out hahahaha [kimbo laughing] [wait]

The consciousness body produced by the magic of the Evil Eighteen Fighting Gods, what do you think of this setting?

Hmm...Because Gerald cursed Lopez with the magic of the Evil Eighteen Gods of War under Ulutia's control, so he knew that the [absolute] as a conscious body would be produced, and it had a certain meaning On the other hand, he also helped to facilitate the birth of [Jue]--

And—that’s right, Lopez’s low self-esteem (?) character was because [absolutely] kept making her train of thought 00

Although it’s a bit nonsense, but it’s the way 2333 is set up… Anyway, Kengdao doesn’t have any detailed explanations about this magic, so I just started to talk nonsense… Please don’t dislike it 00 [tears

I guess there is still one chapter left for the story of the Tower of Paradise... Yes, I really can't enjoy this part of the story 00

Let Naz be cool at the end 00

Then, are you sure you don't leave a message when you see such a cute author? 00!
