Lucy, just like Erza, collapsed to the ground after being kissed.
It wasn’t the first ti they had kissed, but it hadn’t happened often enough for her to get used to it.
Rangiku – Allen-chan, what kind of relationship do you have with those girls?
Nanao – Isn’t it obvious? This man can’t go anywhere without seducing a woman!
Rangiku – That’s not it, how should I explain it?
Natasha – I get you. It’s true that even though they have that relationship, it’s not the sa as in other worlds... so, honey, what’s your answer?
The people in the Chat were confused, and with good reason.
Allen thought montarily—both girls had feelings for him, and they had already told him so. Both also knew about his true identity, though not much. Both girls had agreed to give him a chance to prove he could make them happy despite his involvent with other won.
"It’s pretty strange, and honestly I wouldn’t know how to answer," Allen laughed. He himself didn’t know how to define their relationship. They liked each other, kissed, lived under the sa roof, and he had even given them engagent rings. So they were his girlfriends? Fiancées? Or a no?
This answer left his Chat unsatisfied, but Allen couldn’t help it. Besides, he had sothing more important to deal with right now.
Allen glanced at Erza, who was getting up, and Lucy, who was covering her face in embarrassnt. Then his attention shifted to Wendy and Carla.
"Are you done, pervert?!" Carla growled, still covering Wendy’s eyes. "What kind of things are you teaching Wendy?!"
Allen shrugged. "Believe it or not, I’m a man who respects privacy. I wouldn’t display my intimacy in public. But it was just a kiss—I don’t think there’s a single place in the world where that would be considered indecent. Maybe uncomfortable for so single spectators..."
Carla clenched her teeth, but she couldn’t refute Allen’s words. Allen chuckled and glanced at Wendy, who, despite having her eyes covered, was blushing, aning she had understood the whole situation.
’Carla’s not completely wrong. Maybe I should be more careful about what I do in front of Wendy. She’s still too young to even see a couple holding hands...’
Allen looked at Sorano, who was covering her chest as if afraid a pervert would attack her. This made Allen roll his eyes.
’Do you really think of as so kind of beast?’
Erza and Lucy were two won who had been with Allen for so ti, their feelings had grown gradually. Allen didn’t just go around kissing every pretty girl he saw. Of course, he could, but he didn’t...
’Maybe I should?’ Allen shook his head, laughing at himself. It seed that being trapped in this world made him miss the warmth of his girls.
Allen exhaled, his eyes sharpening—he couldn’t play around all day.
’Not at this mont...’
There was a reason he chose this thod to take down Oración Seis instead of just dropping a teor on their heads Madara-style.
[Guild Mission: Guide Fairy Tail to victory. For every Fairy Tail mber who defeats an enemy, you will receive a special reward.]
As if reading his thoughts, the pleasant voice of the system echoed in his head.
Allen needed strength!
Mystogan, who had been tasked with investigating the mysterious mission about a strange sighting in the Duke’s territory, had sent him alarming information. It seed that the sighting was indeed a dragon. However, its behavior was unusual, as if it were searching for sothing while refusing to destroy villages or towns to find it.
The power of Lucifer... a single particle was already too much. If soone appeared with more than two particles, could he defeat him?
The power given to him by that mysterious entity (which, according to the system, that power is called Dunamis Demiurgos) gave Allen the ability to create magical power out of nothing, but it did not make him Invincible.
A simple example: just because a vehicle has infinite fuel doesn’t an it will go faster—that’s up to the engine. In other words, Allen had unlimited magical energy, but his spells still had limits.
Allen’s Composite Magic was terrifying, but it had a major drawback: casting ti. This type of magic was complicated.
The One-Man Army was not perfect either, even if the magic power limitation was gone, his current body could not withstand unlimited power increases; otherwise, he would simply do a x1000 and take out every enemy in Saitama style.
That’s why Allen was more inclined to improve his native magic. Proof of this was his Wind and Earth magics: one had allowed him to create a colossus, the other to manipulate the atmosphere, and both were only at the Expert level.
Allen wanted those special rewards, because with each passing day, he had a bad feeling. Lucifer had behaved himself, hadn’t spoken much, hadn’t made strange remarks—but this was the Devil himself. How could he surrender so easily?!
....
Allen pushed those thoughts aside and turned his attention to the system screens. However, he noticed the girls staring at him in silence, obviously wondering why he had suddenly gone quiet.
"It’s true..." Allen muttered before making the system screens visible.
"What?"
"This is... Archive Magic?" Sorano exclaid in confusion.
Allen smiled—of course, she would recognize that kind of magic. Archive Magic allowed its users to convert information into magical data that could be stored, enabling access to previously saved information, as well as other types of magic, even ancient ones limited by location, and even information about certain people. It could also send information directly into soone’s mind, create interfaces, holographic maps—basically, a portable magical computer.
"Sothing like that..." Allen didn’t feel like coming up with a better explanation for the system screens, so he just went along with the simplest one.
"You had this kind of magic..." Lucy said as she watched several battles unfold.
"What a convenient magic..." Erza remarked. Normally, people didn’t even attempt to master many kinds of magic, as that would take ti away from honing their main skills.
So a magic designed more for strategy and support was less popular than simply throwing fireballs from your hands.
"Right?" Allen smiled, but then imdiately grew serious as he watched the battles.
The girls watched in shock as well.
Laxus, Natsu, and Gajeel looked different—their tallic skin sprouted scales, as if they were turning into real dragons.
[Information Unlocked: Dragon Force is the final and most powerful state a Dragon Slayer can achieve (as far as is known); granting them power comparable to that of a "real Dragon"(Theoretically): the power to completely destroy everything. When Dragon Slayers enter Dragon Force, they undergo a process of temporary Dragonification, effectively turning them into humanoid Dragons, gaining scales and reptilian traits such as elongated, sharpened canines and scale-like patterns across their skin.]
This information appeared on a screen as well, so both the Chat and the girls could see it.
"This is incredible..." Lucy covered her mouth.
"Lucy..." Erza sighed. The girl didn’t understand that this power was thanks to the bracelet, which ant she, too, had received similar magical strength. However, since it manifested as upgrades for her spirits, she hadn’t realized it.
"Impossible!" Sorano gasped in disbelief. Unsurprisingly so, since her companions were currently being utterly crushed.
" too?" Wendy stared speechless at the screen. She couldn’t imagine herself having that kind of power.
Allen stroked her head. "Wendy, Dragon Slayers are quite peculiar. Whenever they consu their own elent, they can recover and even temporarily beco stronger... so yes, you can beco as strong as them..."
"Really?!" Wendy jumped with excitent. "Did you hear that, Carla? I can be as strong as Natsu-san!"
Wendy realized what she had just said, quickly covered her mouth with both hands, and looked at Allen with both apology and fear.
"I didn’t an it like that—I know Brother Allen is much stronger than Natsu-san..."
Allen raised an eyebrow and then laughed. "I won’t be bothered. You’re free to admire whoever you want, but it’s true—I’m much stronger than Natsu, and that will always be the case..."
’He really did get bothered...’ thought Erza, Lucy, Sorano, Wendy, Carla, and even the Chat.
Back to the fights—everything ended quickly.
Cobra did his best to defend himself, but Natsu’s heat, comparable to the surface of the sun, incinerated even his poison. Then Cobra was struck by a punch he couldn’t even predict and fell unconscious, half his face burned.
"Natsu ate a fire spirit without consciousness that must have lived for at least ten thousand years..." Allen said, leaving everyone speechless. He glanced at Lucy. "It’s not a spirit like yours. It’s more of a manifestation of the concept of fire, so don’t worry..."
Lucy smiled with relief. She loved her spirits dearly—knowing Natsu had eaten one would have left a bitter taste in her mouth. Fortunately, this celestial spirit ca from a cultivation world and didn’t even have a will of its own.
Gajeel’s fight also ended quickly—if not boringly. Hoteye’s attacks did nothing to him. Gajeel simply walked up and struck him. After that, Hoteye seed to act like he’d been struck by Cupid’s arrow, babbling that Gajeel had opened the door to happiness.
Allen decided to turn that cara off before things got too affectionate.
As for Laxus, everything was straightforward. He was the strongest after Allen, and with his tribulation lightning, he had beco terrifyingly fast and powerful.
A single strike was enough to defeat Racer...
"As expected of Laxus..." Allen chuckled. The man had an imposing appearance as he looked down at Racer with pity.
[The defeat of all six mbers of Oración Seis has been confird. Rewards will be granted.]
[Update: Flight Magic > Master Level]
[Update: Wind Magic > Master Level]
[New: Gravity God Slayer Magic]
[New: Space God Slayer Magic]
[New: Wind God Magic]
[New: Life God Magic]
Allen was stunned for a mont. He knew about the existence of Dragons, and therefore Dragon Slayer magic—but Gods? Did gods exist in this world?
"No... that doesn’t matter!"
Allen ignored the rewards and switched the screen to where Gray was fighting. His situation was different—he wasn’t supposed to win. Not because he lacked power, but because Brain possessed a particle that could make him immortal, with constantly increasing strength. So from the start, Gray’s role had only been to stall. Once the rest of Oración Seis was defeated, he would get backup.
Allen wanted to end Brain quickly—it wasn’t his style to just sit back and watch—but he had to be careful with Nirvana’s forbidden magic. At this mont, he wasn’t the Allen with unimaginable power, but a mage with flesh and blood.
The one thing that had to be avoided at all costs was being turned into Void!
....!!
At that mont, Allen felt it. Not only him—Erza, Natsu, Gajeel, Laxus, Lucy, Happy, even the entire guild, including Makarov, felt it too—a sharp pain in the chest. At the sa ti, the Guardian’s bracelet cracked with noticeable fissures.
As Sun Tzu once said: War is a living, ever-changing thing. No matter how much you plan and prepare, you can never fully control it.
When the scene shifted, Allen saw sothing he hadn’t expected.
....
(Monts earlier)
Gray was panting. In front of him was Brain. But this ti, the situation was reversed—it was Brain who had fallen to the ground.
Gray’s body radiated an icy power capable of freezing near absolute zero. This was the power he had obtained from the bracelet.
"Fool, you shouldn’t have done that!" Brain shouted in fear.
"What’s wrong? Can’t accept defeat?" Gray mocked, though deep inside he felt uneasy. It’s strange. Allen said I couldn’t beat him because of his immortality, but this guy isn’t regenerating. His power hasn’t even risen once...
"You don’t understand! He’s going to awaken!" Brain scread, but too late. His eyes turned red, his skin grew pale, his hair ca loose, and his clothes changed.
And then, his magical power... it began to rise beyond the level of a Wizard Saint!
Sensing mortal danger, Gray tried to attack, but in an instant, his chest was pierced by a fist.
"Urghhh! w-who?"
Gray grabbed the arm of his attacker as blood poured out. It looked like Brain—but it wasn’t Brain.
"W-who are you?!"
"Oh? You can still talk in that state?" the man laughed maniacally, pulling his fist out of Gray’s chest. Shattered ribs, a destroyed heart, ruined lungs—this was a mortal wound. But Gray was still alive, thanks to the Guardian’s bracelet, which divided the fatal damage among all of Fairy Tail’s mages.
"Urgh..." Gray groaned, but soon the pain lessened and the wound closed. Feeling the state of his bracelet, Gray understood—he would have been dead if not for Allen.
"Impressive..." the man said. "Since you didn’t die from my greeting, I’ll answer your question. I am Zero... the one who will bring chaos and death to all!"
Three red flashes glead on Zero’s forehead.
Zero was ruthless, cruel, and heartless. This soulless monster was Brain’s alter ego—or rather, it was the opposite. Brain was the personality Zero had created to function as a normal person. Brain had sealed Zero with six locks, each tied to one of the Oración Seis mbers, and only when they were all defeated would he be released.
"Well, no point entertaining you anymore..." Zero said, disappearing. Gray, despite having the power of a Saint, couldn’t react. But just before Gray’s life was taken, a kick smashed into Zero’s face, sending him flying through the forest, destroying everything in his path.
Allen’s attack didn’t stop there.
"Gravity God Slayer Magic: Singularity!"
A black hole appeared above Zero, devouring everything in its path—including light and space itself.
Zero only smiled, stretched out his hand, and crushed the magic effortlessly. Then he stood, cracked his neck, and in an instant appeared right in front of Allen.
"Protego!"
Zero struck the golden shield, shattering it without effort. His fist hit Allen squarely, sending him flying into the Colossus. Allen couldn’t stop the montum and crashed into it, bringing it down.
The caras were still running, so the girls saw everything.
Allen had been beaten, sent flying for it. He had been outmatched by his opponent!
"Oh? I hit you pretty hard and you didn’t die. Impressive..." Zero said, looking at Allen standing atop the fallen Colossus as he wiped the blood from his mouth and spat out a broken tooth.
"You talk too much..." Allen replied, massively increasing his magical power.
"Wonderful!" Zero grinned, raising his magic even higher before rushing at Allen.
"One-Man Army x100 Strength!" Allen clenched his fist and clashed it against Zero’s.
The force of their blows created a shockwave that cleared the clouds from the sky. At the sa ti, the entire forest shook—their battle surpassed human limits, and it was just beginning.
