Chapter 123
The bells of Christmas Eve will ring again, and the wheel of time will move forward again. Looking back, the ebb and flow of the tide has submerged yesterday's footprints... Seven years have passed in a flash.
Izana, Ignia, Selene and Melkkobia gathered together.
"Seven years..." Izana was the first to speak.
Selene was a little confused and didn't understand what Izana meant: "Huh?"
"They are about to wake up, and Ishgar will be lively again..."
Ignia clenched her fists and said excitedly: "Natsu!"
Melkkobia said at this time: "They have been sleeping for seven years, and their magic power has not improved at all. Even if they wake up, they can't beat you, right? Ignia..."
"In a few days, I will ask Ultear to help them open the second magic source to fill their seven years of vacancy." Izana said.
Ignia was getting more and more excited: "Izana, the promise you made to me is about to come true, right?"
"Of course I won't forget it. It should be about two and a half years away."
"Hahahaha! It's really exciting just thinking about it!"
"You're sick!" Selene couldn't help but complain when she saw Ignia's crazy look.
Three months later...
"This time, I'll have to trouble you three to go back to Ishgar."
Ultear, Melty and Jellal nodded and asked, "What is the mission this time?"
"Natsu and the others have returned to Fairy Tail, so I'll have to trouble you to open the second magic source for them to fill their seven years of blankness. Jellal, you must seize the opportunity. Erza will also be with Natsu and the others."
Jellal, whose name was mentioned, blushed a little after hearing Izana's words, and then became shy: "Hey! What are you talking about?!"
"Am I talking nonsense? Melty and Ultear should think so too, right?" Then Izana looked at Ultear and Melty who were watching the show.
Ultear and Melty also fanned the flames: "Oh, Jellal is really pure!"
"Yeah! Yeah! He blushes when he mentions Erza!"
"I don't know how many years I've heard someone calling Erza late at night~"
"I heard it too!"
Jellal also stopped Ultear and Melty: "Enough! Stop talking!"
Izana smiled slightly when she saw this scene.
Jellal, Ultear and Melty also left here to find Selene to teleport to Ishgar. Jellal also thought to himself: "Erza! We finally meet!"
On the other side...
Just when Erza and others were still worrying about not filling the seven-year gap, a carrier pigeon flew over Erza's head.
"Pigeon?!"
"Look, there seems to be something tied to his feet!"
"It's a note, let me see!"
Happy also read directly: "To Fairy Tail, come to the damaged suspension bridge on the western hill immediately!"
"What is that? How dare you order us!" Natsu was also a little dissatisfied with the words on the note.
Gray also agreed with Natsu's point of view and echoed: "That's right, what do you mean by come immediately? How dare you use such a tone!"
While the others were still chattering, Erza said directly: "Let's go and take a look. You will know when you go!"
Then everyone came to the damaged suspension bridge. Just when everyone thought it was a prank, the damaged suspension bridge was restored to its new appearance. This scene amazed Fairy Tail.
"Fixed?!"
Eluza looked at the end of the suspension bridge and couldn't help but be a little cautious: "Are you asking us to go to the other side?"
Then she pushed Natsu onto the suspension bridge. After Natsu walked to the other side, Erza said to the people behind her: "Thanks to Natsu, we can finally confirm that it is safe. Let's go!"
When everyone came to the hill, Erza reached out to stop everyone. Three figures stood on the hill. The three figures slowly walked down and took off their cloaks when they came to the front of everyone.
"Finally here..."
When the three people showed their true faces, Erza was surprised and said: "Jellal!"
"You haven't changed at all, Erza." Jellal was also a little happy to see Erza.
The others couldn't help but be happy to see Jellal again, and then asked various questions.
"We are no longer involved in Ishgar's affairs. We have found our life goals again."
"Is that so... Congratulations!"
UlutiYa also said directly: "We are here to help you, and we will go back later."
"Help us?" Everyone couldn't help but feel a little confused.
Melty said directly: "We are here to help you fill the gap of these seven years!"
Everyone was a little excited when they heard this, and then asked: "Do you really have a way to help us fill the gap of these years?"
Ultia nodded and said: "The second magic source! ... But it will be a little painful."
"Great!"
At night, Ultia also helped everyone open the second magic source and then returned to the North Continent with Jellal and Melty.
The next day...
Izana stood on the highest rooftop of the empire and looked at the empire and many ecological areas in front of him.
"The air pressure is so low~ Something big must happen on a day like this! Selene... Do you know what I want to say?"
Selene said, "I don't understand what you mean, but I always feel that you are going to take part in it yourself."
"The Dragon King Festival is about to begin, and with it comes war!"
"Dragon King Festival...Dragon King Festival..." Melkobiia and Ignia also heard these words for the first time in a long time.
Izana then pointed at Ishgar and said lightly: "The turbulence is coming!"
The people behind him also looked at Ishgar, namely Jilia, Midnight, Richard, Angel, Laser, Cobra, Eligore, Jellal, Ultear, Melty, Madmore, Scario Radar, Nebaru, Kirin, Suzaku, Misaki, and Per.
Hairis also changed from human form back to cat form and flew to Izana's side, and then two soldiers escorted Jorg Lessen to the main city gate to be beheaded in public.
Izana looked at this ignorant man and sneered, "Let your death serve as a warning to those who are like you!"
