Chapter 38 Five Saviors

The five children Anna brought back were all shyly shrinking behind her. Sometimes they curiously observed Lyle and Irene, and sometimes they looked at the dragon and Anna inquiringly.

"They are my adopted children, orphans who survived this war." Anna gently stroked the hair of one of the children and said firmly, "Natsu, Gajeel, Wendy, Sting, and Luo Ge, do you remember what I taught you?"

The five children hesitated for a moment, but one of the children with cherry-colored hair took the lead. Then they walked out from behind Anna one after another and saluted Eileen.

"Good boy." Erin was surprised at first that the unmarried Anna would adopt five children. She heard that the Heartfilia family's bloodline was sparse. Apart from Anna, the only one left was her brother. Even in this situation, Anna didn't get married against her will, so why did she suddenly adopt so many children?

It wasn't until she heard that these children were all war orphans that Irene's inner compassion made her agree with Anna's approach. Maybe Anna was also out of compassion.

However, Lyle thought of the Fire Dragon King's hesitation half a year ago and suddenly realized.

He was different from Irene. Even after more than twenty years, he still had vague memories of his previous life, remembering that these five children were the appointed saviors.

The simulator has not found the target for a long time, and now it can finally continue to work.

The time period of the simulation cannot be controlled, and the scenes of the five children are similar. They all arrived 400 years later, and they became Lyle's apprentices.

Lyle taught them how to use dragon-slaying magic, how to overcome their fear of "transportation", how to transform into dragons, and how to suppress their desire for destruction.

The zero-generation Dragon Slayers like Lyle, Erin, and Acnologia won't feel dizzy when riding transportation at all, while the Dragon Slayers starting from Natsu and Gajeel's generation Dragon Mage will have this symptom.

It seems that Dragon Slayer Magic is also quietly updating and iterating, producing new side effects.

The simulation is over.

From Natsu, Lyle obtained the "Devil's Blessing", which can be used to seal demons, but the sealing duration is inversely related to the target's strength, that is, the stronger the target, the shorter the sealing duration.

From Gajeel, Lyle obtained the "Blessing of Iron Food", which allowed him to eat iron products to recover a small amount of mana.

From Wendy, Lyle received the "self-healing blessing". When there are wounds, toxins or diseases on his body, he will slowly and continuously heal himself.

At Sting's place, Lyle received a "Laser Blessing" that allowed him to shoot laser beams at his fingertips.

From Rogge, Lyle obtained the "Dragon Control Blessing", which can temporarily control a dragon, and the duration is negatively related to the target's strength.

The number of blessings on Lyle has reached an astonishing fourteen, and is still increasing.

At the same time, Irene invited her friends into the royal city.

After not seeing each other for more than half a year, the people here still remembered the heroic deeds of the dragons and took to the streets one after another, applauding and welcoming. The streets were filled with people for a while.

Erin could tell that the Fire Dragon King and Anna had something to say to her privately, so she took the key people and dragons to the open square of the palace, and then drove away the surrounding knights and maids.

The Fire Dragon King closed his dragon eyes, sensed it, and confirmed that only his own magic power was left here. Then he said with a smile: "The queen is worthy of being a queen. She immediately guessed that we have something to say."

Erin pointed at the five children: "Is it related to them? For more than half a year, Lyle and I have been thinking about what you wanted to say at that time. It seems that the secret is hidden in them."

Anyone with a clear head would know that there must be something fishy about them bringing five children to the door.

"Hahaha..." The Fire Dragon King scratched his head with his dragon claws, showing a cautious look, "Where should I start?" "Let me talk to them."

At this time, a man's voice suddenly sounded.

Everyone looked over and saw a young man with short black hair sitting on the eaves of the palace a few hundred meters away, staring at them with listless eyes.

Seeing him, the Fire Dragon King sighed and introduced: "Queen, this is the black mage Zeref Dragneel."

Irene was extremely surprised. Is this ordinary-looking young man the legendary person cursed by the gods?

Lyle, on the other hand, had already followed his instinct and used the simulator on Zeref.

But something strange happened. The simulator could lock on to Zeref, but it could not simulate the future. The future between him and Zeref turned out to be a blur.

Why is that?
Could it be that it's because of the god's curse on Zeref?
Lyle thought about it and ended the simulation in a hurry.

The one sitting on the eaves was indeed Jeref. The reason why he sat so far away was to prevent the "death hunt" from himself from killing the people and dragons here.

Although giant dragons such as the Fire Dragon King have the ability to stop the invasion of "Death Hunting", there is no need to take this risk.

His dim eyes scanned the crowd, and when he saw Natsu, he inevitably showed a hint of sadness, and then looked away.

"Everyone, in order to avoid missing anything, let me start from the beginning."

"I believe you have all heard the rumors about me. In order to resurrect my brother, I touched the taboo of life. Therefore, I was cursed by the gods. I am immortal and may harm the lives around me at any time. This is my punishment."

In this section, Zeref concealed information about his younger brother. In fact, he successfully used black magic to resurrect his younger brother, Natsu, one of the five children, but Natsu was also reincarnated into a demon.

Natsu didn't know anything about it yet, and Zeref simply chose to hide it.

"I have been searching for a way to kill myself. It was also at this time that I met Acnologia, the dragon-slayer mage who is now said to be the 'King of Dragons'."

Acnologia's record in the past six months has been magnificent, and he deserves the title of "Dragon King". His acquisition of this throne also means the end of the "Dragon King Festival War", and a new era will follow.

The dragon clan will gradually withdraw from the stage of history.

"You should all have seen the strength of Akunologia. He is now almost invincible, and his atrocities are too numerous to describe. I believe that getting rid of him is our common wish, which is why I came here half a year ago. Come here and find out why the Fire Dragon King and the others are here.”

Only then did Lyle know that Zeref had come to the royal city half a year ago, but it was too secretive and not many people knew about it.

"I came up with a plan. The current Acunologia has not yet reached the peak of his strength. He will continue to grow, but even in his growth period, we cannot kill him. However, no matter what Whether he is a human or a dragon, he cannot defeat an enemy."

"That's the time!"

Zeref briefly explained his "Eclipse Gate Plan" to everyone.
