Chapter 739 Family Recognition Conference

Chapter 739 Family Recognition Conference
Among the Twelve Shields of the Empire, except for Brandish, everyone else had a cold look in their eyes.

Obviously, they were not very interested in the life and death of the god Serena or the life and death of Lu Li and his group.

It's just that I received a communication from Brandish before, and learned that someone invaded the imperial capital, so I'm waiting here. Once the matter is settled, everyone still has to continue with their own business.

But when the smoke cleared, the Twelve Shields, who were about to turn around, saw what had happened and their hearts tightened.

The body of the god Serena was seen standing in front of Lu Li, but his head was held in Lu Li's hand. Blood was still dripping from his neck which was torn apart by the huge tearing force.

Lu Li casually threw Serena's head aside and smiled a self-proclaimed sunny smile, "Of course, I don't mind killing some blind people."

Under everyone's surprised gaze, he walked past Serena's body and looked at the Magic King, "Ougast, you should be able to recognize who is behind me, right?"

Augustus was stunned. His attention had been focused on Lu Li, who looked the most powerful, and he had not paid much attention to Natsu and the others.

When Lu Li said this, his eyes were fixed on Mavis. After just one glance, he couldn't move his eyes away.

He is the son of Mavis and Jelf, but Jelf doesn't know his identity. Because he longs for the love of his father and mother, he once tried to find out his own identity, so he learned about his mother's appearance from some portraits.

Moreover, his attainments in magic were extremely high and his sensitivity was extraordinary. Just by the connection between blood, he knew that the blonde girl in front of him who looked like a young girl was his mother.

For a moment, he had no intention of avenging Serena as the leader of the Twelve Shields.

He just stared at Mavis and his lips trembled.

"Grandpa August, what's wrong with you?"

Brandish pulled Auguste worriedly, thinking that the Magic King had been tricked. She actually didn't want to go into a full-scale war with Lu Li and the others, but if even the Magic King was controlled, then she would have no choice but to fight desperately.

"Lu Li, what did you mean by what you just said?"

At this time, Mavis also looked at Lu Li in confusion, not knowing what the relationship was between herself and the old magic king in front of her.

"First generation, can't you feel it? He has your blood flowing in his body."

Lu Li didn't have the habit of being a riddler, so he said bluntly, "He is your son."

Lu Li’s words not only shocked Mavis, but also the twelve shields present.

Now no one in the Twelve Shields cares about the life or death of the traitor God Serena. All their attention is focused on the Magic King. Serena's life is not as good as the Magic King's.

Auguste had no idol baggage. After hearing Lu Li's words, his guess was completely confirmed. He couldn't help but step forward and look at his mother's face carefully.

It's both funny and sad that he already looks like a centenarian, but his mother still has the face of a young girl.

But looking at this face, that natural sense of intimacy still made his heart soften. That was the fatherly and motherly love that he had been pursuing all his life.

He was saved by his father Jellal when he was young, but he never had the courage to reveal his identity because he knew that he would never be loved by his parents in this life.

Both Jeref and his mother Mavis are troubled by the curse of Anxelram. What will it matter even if they reveal their identities?
In the end, it was just Jellal's love that killed himself and only made his father sad.

But now, August looked at the light flashing in his mother's eyes, his lips moved slightly, and he almost impulsively called out that name.

While he was hesitating, Mavis jumped up first. She was petite, but when she leaped up, it seemed as if there was infinite and majestic brilliance rushing towards Auguste.

Mavis opened her arms and hugged Auguste. Her face showed a mixture of joy and sadness. Her eyes were crescent-shaped, but she couldn't stop shedding tears.

"My child, you are my son, Auguste..."

Mavis hugged the old man in front of her tightly. The feeling of blood connection made her feel warm and distressed.

She felt heartbroken when she thought about the fact that she had done nothing for nearly a hundred years and that her son had been abandoned in the wilderness and had spent his entire life alone.

"Mother... mother..."

Auguste was overwhelmed by this sudden maternal love. He forgot his identity and his infinite magical powers. For a moment, he was like a helpless child.

The other twelve shields were also stunned when they saw this scene. Some of them wanted to take action, but were stopped by Brandish and Dragon Mother Irene.

The Twelve Shields were a little confused. It was okay with Brandish, as he and Augustus had a relationship like that of a grandfather and grandson on weekdays, but Irene was famous for her coldness and ruthlessness. They didn't expect that Irene was also helping Augustus to keep the situation under control.

In fact, there were two reasons why Irene held on to the Twelve Shields. One was that the reunion between Auguste and his mother touched the softness hidden deep in her heart. The other was that she suddenly discovered that the little red-haired girl among Lu Li and his group looked somewhat like her when she was young.

In addition, a strange thing had already happened today, and she felt strange and had an indescribable premonition that prevented her from acting rashly.

"This... old man, is he actually the son of the first generation?"

Natsu was also confused at this time. His brain circuit could not adapt to the fact that August, a centenarian, could be the child of Mavis, who looked like a young girl.

Lucy accepted it faster. Women are more emotional. She was happy for the first generation and wiped away tears of joy.

"It's great that mother and son can be reunited..."

Erza sighed at the side and said that as she looked at this scene, she inexplicably recalled her own life experience.

She was abandoned by her parents when she was young and had no idea who her biological mother was. Despite having the big family of Fairy Tail, it was impossible to say that she had never thought about her biological parents.

"I didn't expect to see something like this..."

Gray was also sighing at the side. Seeing that the atmosphere was getting worse, he felt that the fight could not continue, so he put away his magic posture.

At this time, Mavis hung on Auguste, raised her hand and stroked the head of the tall centenarian, "Child, you must have suffered a lot these years..."

She had a thousand things to say to her son, but she didn't know where to start.

After all, to be honest, she was in a coma at the time, and she only had vague guesses that she might have a son. After all, she was a woman, and it was impossible for her to be so stupid that she didn't know the changes her body had undergone.

But when she really saw her son and saw that he was already very old, she felt mixed emotions.

How many centuries can a person live? She and Jellal were cursed with immortality, but for their son, these hundred years are already a lifetime. She has already missed her son's entire life.

When Augustus heard his mother's words, his eyes became sore. He was usually serious and majestic, and was the magic king revered by all people, but now he couldn't help crying, and his tears contained all the grievances in this life.

"Ougast, the scene of recognizing relatives is almost over."

Irene spoke, her eyes sweeping over Lu Li and his group, "After all, these people are enemy wizards who have trespassed into the capital. They should be controlled first."

Her patience was not infinite. She had already given face to the Magic King. As for the death of the goddess Serena, it was not enough to scare her.

In her and the Magic King's opinion, Serena was just a second-rate character. Both of them had the power to destroy a country at any time, and were not on the same level as the other twelve shields.

When Irene raised her hand, a huge scarlet magic circle rose in the capital, obviously wanting the loyal subjects to fulfill their duties as the Twelve Shields first.

"Erin...wait!"

Auguste came back to his senses, separated from his mother, turned around and shouted. He wanted to say that since Mavis was his mother, these people were not lying.

But no one knew the relationship between him and Jellal. Everyone just thought that he had recognized his relatives and found his mother.

"Don't forget your position, August. You are the Magic King who is the leader of the Twelve Shields of the Empire. We can let your mother go, but we will arrest anyone who teleports and invades the capital."

Irene said in a cold voice.

Because she cast a spell, Lu Li and the others focused their attention on Irene.

She was wearing a black cloak, black high-heeled over-the-knee boots, a black wizard hat on her head, and a brown and yellow deer antler-shaped wand with black spots in her hand. She had long crimson hair tied into four braids.

She had a face strikingly similar to Erza's, but her breasts were fuller and her figure was slender. Perhaps because she was too poor to afford more cloth, there was an obvious scar on the left side of her exposed abdomen.

"so big……"

Wendy, who was hiding behind Natsu, looked at Irene, lowered her head unconsciously, touched her barren land with both hands, her face full of loss.

"Erin, stop first, otherwise..."

Auguste has tremendous magical power, and both of them are the strongest people in this world. In Lu Li's view, they can reach the seventh level in combat.

"Otherwise what?"

Irene said indifferently, "Don't block the way, or I will kill your mother as well."

In terms of age, she lived hundreds of years ago and was the founder of dragon-slaying magic. Auguste looked old, but in her eyes he was just a child.

"Erin, don't speak so early."

At this time, Lu Li spoke calmly, walked to Erza who was on high alert, and patted her shoulder, "Don't you think she looks a lot like you?"

There was no wavering in Irene's eyes. "Why, are you trying to say she's my daughter?"

Lu Li nodded in the face of Erza's shocked gaze, "It seems that your eyesight is not that bad. You should still remember where you left your daughter, right?"

Irene frowned when she heard this and looked Lu Li up and down. "Who are you? Why do you know so much?"

She had just examined Erza carefully, and indeed felt a blood connection from her, but she had never heard of Lu Li before. How come he helped the Twelve Shields recognize a relative just after coming out?
The two strongest people among the Twelve Shields, she and Auguste, one found her mother, and the other was found by her daughter. Is there such a coincidence in the world?

If Lu Li knew what Irene was thinking, he would definitely complain about such coincidences.

When Lu Li read the original novel, he couldn't help but complain, thinking that the Twelve Shields were extremely strong, and he didn't know how to beat the strongest Magic King and Dragon Mother Irene, but they were all killed by the plot, and what they released was not water, but the sea.

As the saying goes, there is no coincidence in the world. The two strongest people just happened to be defeated after recognizing each other as relatives. How can they explain it?

Irene Belserion seemed cold and indifferent on the surface, but she actually cared a lot about her daughter. She was afraid that she would not be able to resist the temptation and would take over her daughter's body, so she abandoned her daughter in a farmhouse and left for the Albares Empire, never to return to Fiore.

It's just that she was proud by nature, and even if she finally softened her heart, she had to be tough on the outside. In addition, she probably didn't want to betray Zeref, who had done her a favor, out of loyalty, so she committed suicide in front of Erza.

"I am just a dragon-riding wizard who travels around the world."

Lu Li smiled and said, "As the founder of dragon-slaying magic, you are quite powerful. Because of this, you should understand..."

As he spoke, he flashed and appeared in front of Irene, with the blade of the prisoner's blade already placed on Irene's neck. "You are no match for me."

There was a hint of surprise in Irene's eyes. She had fought countless battles as the queen of a country during the era of the dragon wars, and was also the founder of dragon-slaying magic, but she did not see Lu Li's movements clearly.

Feeling the breath of death that she hadn't touched for a long time, Irene cancelled the magic she was about to cast and snorted coldly, "Hmph, even if she is my daughter, so what? I was the one who threw her away back then. Don't think I'm as weak as Auguste."

When Erza heard that she was abandoned by her mother and the other party's words were so heartless, her eyes couldn't help but dim.

But she has always been a very positive person, and she has always been cared for by everyone in Fairy Tail, so whether or not she has maternal love is not a very important issue for her, and she is not too frustrated.

"Hard-mouthed, huh?"

Lu Li said with a smile, and kicked Neinhart who was trying to attack him. "Ninety-nine of the Binding Path - Forbidden."

He used the binding technique to lock up Irene, who was already restrained by him, then grabbed Irene's shoulders and threw her to Erza, "You two can talk by yourselves."

Then, he glanced at the remaining twelve shields and asked, "Do you want to continue fighting?"

The remaining twelve shields had not yet recovered from the big news, and saw that Lu Li controlled Irene, the strongest of the twelve shields with just one move. In addition, the Magic King’s attitude was unclear at this time, so they naturally did not dare to act rashly.

Just when the Twelve Shields were wondering whether to show their loyalty, a voice came from behind the palace.

"Stop it, they are not the enemy."

The voice was gloomy but gentle, causing the twelve shields to turn around, kneel on one knee, and salute respectfully, "Your Majesty."
