They were also Gray’s parents.
Gray just kept staring at these two nas, kept staring at...
Scrape... scrape...
This was the sound of the soles of shoes stepping on the snow.
"Th... that, Lord Gray..." Juvia stamred and called out.
"Juvia?" Gray tilted his head slightly.
"Have you been following here all the ti?"
Hearing Gray’s sowhat low inquiry, Juvia lowered her head, and a strong sense of apology appeared on her face: "I’m sorry..."
"Juvia... there is one thing that she must tell Lord Gray..."
Tightening her intertwined hands, Juvia’s tangled expression gradually turned into certainty:
"At that ti... the one who beat the necromancer who manipulated your father..."
"It was Juvia!" She closed her eyes, and said this sentence with all her courage.
The atmosphere froze in an instant.
Even the falling snowflakes seed to be even colder.
"It was you..." Gray widened his eyes, with disbelief in his eyes.
Juvia lowered her head, and didn’t dare to look at Gray’s face again.
Even the sound of her voice beca a sob:
"It was Juvia... who killed your father with her own hands... I am no longer qualified to stand in front of you..."
"So it was you..." Gray stood up.
With a low face, he walked towards Juvia.
His heavy footsteps kept stepping on the snow, Juvia lowered her head, closed her eyes, as if waiting for revenge from Gray.
Yes, in her opinion, she was already Gray’s father’s killer.
This hatred was almost irreconcilable.
Gray bit his teeth tightly, and stopped in front of Juvia.
"It was you..." The short words seed to contain Gray’s constantly surging heart.
Juvia’s body trembled, and tears oozed out from the corners of her eyes.
"Thank you..." Unexpectedly, it was not Gray’s revenge that she welcod, but thanks.
He was thanking Juvia for completely liberating Silver’s bound spirit.
Although it was cruel to himself, it was the best relief for Silver.
Bang——
Gray knelt on the ground, and his whole body was trembling slightly.
Juvia opened her eyes, and her red eyes looked at this boy who was extrely weak at this mont.
He was crying... As a water mage, Juvia could clearly feel that the boy in front of her was crying.
That was a side of him that she had never seen before.
"Lord Gray..." Juvia murmured softly.
"Thank you... really thank you..." The crying Gray kept thanking her.
An unprecedented feeling filled Juvia’s heart.
So much so that she even felt that even the surrounding snow was warm.
Ti passed without knowing how long.
But the sky had gradually fallen into darkness.
Gray and Juvia lit a bonfire together.
Under the illumination of the faint fire, the weakness on Gray’s face had completely disappeared.
What replaced it was determination!
"Next ti, I will definitely beat E.N.D. with my own hands!"
Watching the wooden cross in front of him, Gray slowly said his oath.

At the small river in Magnolia.
Erza sat here alone, holding her knees with one hand, and quietly watching the sparkling river surface.
"Sorry, I kept you waiting." Finn’s voice ca from behind.
Finn walked over and sat down next to Erza.
And Erza had been watching his left arm from the mont Finn ca, although it could move now.
But it was still wrapped in bandages.
"Did Mira change your dicine today?"
"How do you feel now?"
"Is there still a feeling of pain?"
A series of slightly worried inquiries ca from Erza’s mouth.
Speaking of this, Finn’s face was full of helplessness: "Actually, this has already healed, why are you still so nervous?"
"Every ti I see you, I have to ask again."
But of course Erza chose to turn a deaf ear to Finn’s complaints.
She even checked it herself before nodding with relief.
"It doesn’t count if you say it’s healed, injuries should be taken seriously, let alone..."
"The wound left by Acnologia?"
Sighing for a long ti, Finn still resisted the urge to tear off the bandages.
He had no choice now, after all, there were two people staring at him all day long.
He could only let them go.
Moreover... after all, they were worried about him, Finn was still clear about these things.
"Natsu and Happy have left, saying they will co back after a year." Finn changed the topic and said softly.
"It seems that this battle has aroused Natsu’s fighting spirit." Erza smiled.
"Maybe, that kid has matured a lot." Finn sighed.
"You should also have plans, right." Erza stared at Finn’s face.
Hearing these words, Finn was stunned.
Seeing this, Erza also explained: "After all, it’s been so many years, it’s still easy to guess your thoughts."
"Actually, I didn’t intend to hide it from you." Finn leaned back.
And resting his right hand on his neck, he looked at the stars in the sky.
And slowly opened his mouth: "This ti’s battle with Acnologia... was only a little bit away..."
"But it is this little bit that is an unforgettable pain!" Finn tilted his head slightly, and looked at the wound on his left shoulder.
Although it had been almost healed after Wendy’s treatnt, Finn had always been concerned about this matter.
At that ti, if that knife was just a little faster... maybe he could have completely ended Acnologia.
"So, I plan to completely make up for this point."
"That is to say, you are also going out?" Erza asked.
Finn nodded.
"I’m going too!" Erza stared straight at Finn.
"No matter where you go, I will go with you!" Her firm words told her determination.
Finn smiled: "I originally wanted to invite you to co with ."
"And Mira and Nancy, I rember Mira once said that she wanted to travel around this world well, it just so happens that this ti we will travel and strengthen ourselves at the sa ti."
Erza nodded lightly, as if she had put down her hanging heart, Erza also leaned on the ground like Finn.
Then she rested her head on Finn’s chest, and slowly closed her eyes.
And enjoying this mont of peace, and the heartbeat from Finn.
Raising his arm, he stroked Erza’s scarlet hair: "Thank you for always being by my side." Finn said softly.
But Erza shook her head gently: "I should be the one thanking you..."
"All along, the person who has really been taken care of has always been ."
The two smiled at each other, and did not dwell on this topic anymore.
But closed their eyes together, and enjoyed the tranquility brought by the night wind.
