Amidst the sky full of crystal dust, two figures, a man and a woman, slowly landed on the ground.
Ron's face looked sowhat weary, but his eyes were full of spirit.
Beside him stood Ur, with short hair and a gentle yet heroic temperant.
"That's..."
Natsu ran over in a few steps, his eyes wide as copper bells, subconsciously sizing her up.
"Isn't that Gray's master?!"
"Wasn't she..."
"What are you so surprised about?"
Ron rolled his eyes at Natsu and said as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
"Didn't I say on the ship that the R-System is resurrection magic?"
"Since it's resurrection magic, isn't it perfectly reasonable to resurrect soone?"
"Eh..."
Natsu scratched his head and looked at Ron in confusion.
"Did you say that?"
At this mont, Ur, who had just reshaped her physical body, heard the familiar voices. Her gentle eyes swept over the surroundings in confusion, falling upon Natsu and Erza.
She gave a weak but warm smile and nodded to the two of them.
Her mind was still a ss.
Originally, being able to see Gray, Lyon, and even Ultear on Galuna Island had already made her very satisfied.
She hadn't expected this.
Now, she had actually co back to life!
Compared to the warmth and confusion on this side.
Opposite them.
Jellal stood there, dumbfounded like a wooden chicken.
He stared fixedly at the pile of shards on the ground, then at the living Ur. His face turned from pale to ashen, and finally beca as black as the bottom of a pot.
The R-System... was used?!
The R-System, which he had spent eight full years of effort on and even infiltrated the Council to complete... was used just like that?!
My grand Zeref is just gone like that?!
"Ron!!!!"
Jellal's shrill, angry roar instantly echoed throughout the Tower of Heaven.
His eyes were bloodshot, and the magic power throughout his body beca extrely unstable, causing cracks to explode on the surrounding ground.
Anyone could feel the monstrous resentnt and fury in his heart.
It was comparable to the hatred of having one's wife stolen or one's father murdered!!!
After all, who could endure working hard for eight years only to have everything reset to zero right as the harvest was approaching?
"Why are you shouting so loud!!"
Ron was startled by the sudden outburst.
He paced forward, looking at Jellal, who was on the verge of collapse.
"It's not like whoever has the loudest voice is the winner."
"As a villain, your expression managent is too out of control, Jellal."
"Besides... you should understand, right?"
The corners of Ron's mouth curled up as he spread his hands, revealing an extrely punchable, mocking smile.
"In this situation, you have nothing left but humiliation."
This jab could be described as precise and fatal.
Forget Jellal; even Erza and Ur, listening from the side, couldn't help but have their mouths twitch.
This was way too destructive to one's ntal state!
Killing him was one thing, but he was destroying his soul too!!!
"You bastard!!!"
Jellal completely broke down.
For eight years, no matter what situation he faced, he had remained calm, with everything under his control.
But now, he only wanted to tear the guy in front of him into ten thousand pieces!
"How dare you lay a finger on my things!!"
Boom—!
The ground beneath Jellal's feet instantly shattered, and his entire being turned into a golden teor, lunging straight at Ron!
Faced with this hate-filled strike.
Ron casually dodged to the side.
Swish!
The teor grazed Ron's body and crashed into the ruins behind him, triggering a violent explosion.
Ron's gaze swept back and forth between the Lacrima shards and Erza, montarily unsure of who the other party was referring to.
But his intuition told him it was likely the forr.
"I think, for sothing like the R-System, it should belong to whoever gets their hands on it first..."
"Even though you arrived first, I'm the one who used it first."
Ron didn't feel like he was speaking nonsense at all, looking completely matter-of-fact.
"According to the principle of first-co, first-served, this is very reasonable, right?"
"Reasonable my ass!!!"
Jellal laughed out of extre anger.
He took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the surging blood in his chest, secretly warning himself not to lose his composure.
Things had already reached this point.
The R-System was definitely gone, and the plan to resurrect Zeref had completely fallen through.
However... he had to vent this frustration!!!
By the ti he opened his eyes again, Jellal had regained his composure.
It was just that his eyes were still filled with a predatory fire.
"Go ahead and enjoy your wagging tongue."
"You have no idea how much I sacrificed for this plan."
"Now... go to hell and repent for your actions!!!"
"Take this!"
Jellal's hands waved violently, and the magic circle in front of him shone brightly.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh—!!!
Countless impacts of magic energy, interwoven with black and gold, poured out like a torrential rain of pear blossoms.
Each energy beam was as sharp as a blade, slicing through the air and emitting a piercing whistle.
Targeting Ron directly!
At this mont, Erza and Natsu no longer existed in his eyes; there was only this man who had destroyed his dream.
"Tsk, aren't you just forcing to take your head."
Looking at the magic bombardnt sweeping across the sky, Ron sighed helplessly.
"Honestly, I clearly wanted you guys to settle your own grudges, but you just have to force my hand..."
Despite his words, his movents were as fast as lightning.
Ron quickly raised his right hand, fingers spread, and pressed lightly against the void in front of him.
Buzz—
A white magic circle, not particularly large but extrely solid, instantly unfolded.
In the next second.
Those magic blades, capable of cutting steel into pieces, were completely swallowed the mont they touched the white magic circle, like a mud cow entering the sea, without stirring even a single ripple.
"What?!"
Jellal's pupils shrank.
This was a strike he had unleashed in his fury; how could it be blocked so easily?
"Courtesy demands a return."
The corner of Ron's mouth curved into an arc, and he suddenly clenched his hand.
"Ice Cage!!!"
Crack! Crack! Crack!
The space around Jellal instantly froze.
Several incredibly thick ice walls appeared out of thin air from all directions.
So were crystal clear, others emitted a bone-chilling mist, instantly sealing off all of Jellal's paths of retreat and rapidly squeezing toward the center!
Seeing this, Jellal was horrified.
This guy's magic power... how is it so much stronger than before?!
"teor!!!"
In this life-or-death crisis, Jellal didn't dare hold anything back.
Magic power gushed from within his body, and his speed instantly increased to the limit.
In the final instant before the Ice Cage closed, he turned into a golden light that the naked eye could not catch, narrowly rushing out through a tiny gap.
Boom—!
The Ice Cage snapped shut with a loud bang, shaking the top of the tower.
Having escaped with his life, Jellal hovered in mid-air, panting heavily, looking at Ron below with uncertainty.
"You sure run fast."
Ron wasn't surprised by this.
If he were trapped so easily, then the opponent wouldn't be Jellal.
"Natsu, Erza, take Ur and move further back."
Considering that Ur had just awakened and her strength and bodily functions hadn't recovered yet.
Ron turned and called out to Natsu and Erza beside him.
In the next mont.
Swish!
Ron's figure vanished from where he stood.
Feeling the overflowing magic power within his body, a satisfied smile curled on his lips.
While the feeling of surging power was great, it also needed to be vented and adapted to.
The enraged and skilled Jellal in front of him was simply a perfect punching bag sent from heaven!
Might as well use him!
