Chapter 427: FTRJ: Chapter 427

Looking at Atlas Flame, who had recovered his memory, Natsu cheered excitedly.

“My village’s misfortune is my pain!”

“My village’s sorrow is my tears!”

Atlas Flame murmured in a low voice.

“I will use… the last remaining power of this broken soul…”

His low voice suddenly rose!

“I will liberate this village!!”

The flames around him began to skyrocket constantly, at this moment he seemed to have returned to four hundred years ago.

The pride of being a giant dragon returned to his body.

“My name is Hellfire Dragon – Atlas Flame! I am the guardian dragon of this village!”

The remaining energy of his soul erupted at this moment.

The scarlet red light was constantly spreading towards the surroundings.

Although the flames became more and more violent, they brought an incredibly gentle light.

Behind such powerful power was the gradual dissipation of Atlas Flame’s soul.

But everyone knew that this was his own will.

This was the last thing he could do for the village that he had created.

To bring new life to this village with his complete disappearance.

He looked at the crowd in front of him.

Using his last strength, he said: “Dragon King Festival… Acnologia… Zeref…”

“The most vicious demon in the Books of Zeref – END!”

“Four hundred years ago, Igneel failed to destroy END successfully…”

His voice was gradually becoming smaller, and Wendy could keenly feel that Atlas Flame’s soul was becoming smaller and smaller.

“And we failed to protect our world when fighting Acnologia…”

“I hope you can do it… humans filled with infinite possibilities!!!”

Buzz…

The light of the flames was constantly releasing warmth.

The ice that covered this village also began to melt completely at this moment.

The pink ice seemed to be driven away by the scarlet red light, and the buildings returned to their original appearance at this moment.

The emerald green color, full of life, also gradually returned to this land.

Countless giants, who had been frozen, escaped from the ice one after another.

The successive sounds of escape made a smile gradually rise on Freya’s face.

Atlas Flame’s soul had completely disappeared, but the flames that he had left behind would continue to burn.

Continuing to guard this village.

The northernmost part of the continent.

Due to geographical reasons, this area is covered by wind and snow all year round.

Through the thick blizzard, the ruins of a town buried underground could be vaguely seen.

In this white world, a middle-aged man in silver-white armor sat quietly on a piece of discarded wood.

In front of him stood a one-meter-high wooden simple cross.

It seemed that sloppy handwriting was crookedly engraved on the cross with a knife.

But it seemed to be completely covered by the wind and snow attached to it.

The middle-aged man looked at the cross like this, a faint sadness merged into the wind and snow that blew past.

Tap… tap… tap…

A sound of accumulated snow being trampled came from behind the middle-aged man.

The person who came seemed to be a little scared, to the point that each step was so heavy.

“Silver-sama… headquarters has issued a gathering order…”

A slightly trembling voice rang from the mouth of the person who came.

The middle-aged man, called Silver, seemed to sigh impatiently.

“Seriously, can’t you let me sweep the tomb properly?”

Hearing such a tone, the person who came seemed even more afraid.

But thinking of his mission, he still mustered his courage and continued:

“Because this time… it’s a gathering order issued to all nine demon gates… so… Ice Devil Slayer Mage Silver-sama… please follow the order…”

The person who came lowered his head sharply, saying the last words with his eyes closed: “Let’s go back!”

The corners of Silver’s mouth, with his back to the person who came, slowly hooked up.

“Why are you so scared? I won’t eat you!” The deep voice gradually rang out.

Silver supported his knees with both hands, standing up.

There was a scar on his forehead that pierced to the corner of his left eye, he had crucifix-like earrings hanging from his ears, and his face, full of a lazy expression, was covered with stubble.

Tartaros – Nine Demon Gates – Absolute Zero Silver!

He then slowly turned around, looking at the person behind him.

“Ah… ah…” The person who came unconsciously took two steps backwards.

Facing the other party’s fear, Silver’s smile remained.

“The only thing I’ll eat is the souls of demons!”

————————

On the other side.

Minerva, who had hurriedly escaped because she had sensed Finn’s arrival, returned to her current guild, Succubus Eye, alone.

Because this guild was a dark guild, the location was relatively remote.

The guild’s headquarters was like a ruined castle abandoned in the wilderness.

The surrounding area was surrounded by bare peaks.

Minerva walked alone in the empty passage.

Sweat on her forehead seeped out at some point.

The surroundings were extremely quiet, but it was this kind of atmosphere that seemed even more strange.

Because, until now, Minerva hadn’t found any figures.

“What exactly happened? Where did everyone go?”

Such doubts had been entwining in her mind.

Suddenly, she stopped, her eyes widened, even her pupils were constantly trembling.

Before her eyes, the guild’s hall was already a mess.

The ruins of countless buildings were scattered on the ground, mixed with broken seats and benches.

Strange black paper dolls covered every corner within her vision.

Minerva squatted down, reaching out and picking up a paper doll, examining it carefully.

“What exactly… is this thing?”

She frowned tightly and asked.

“It’s a person!” A voice that suddenly rang out answered her doubts.

Minerva slowly raised her head to look at the figure in front of her.

She clearly had a human posture, but her feet were like the claws of a bird of prey.

No… they should be like the claws of a demon!

“My ability can strengthen humans…” The person who came said in a deep voice.

“Who are you?” Minerva stood up sharply, watching the… woman? in front of her warily.

But the person who came didn’t answer her words first, but said to herself:

“All the weaklings who aren’t worth strengthening have to become like this.”

After saying what she wanted to say, she introduced herself.

“My name is Kyôka, I’m one of the Nine Demon Gates of Tartaros!”

“Tartaros?” Minerva widened her eyes, murmuring.

Could it be… that the fact that Silver failed in the mission we were given to defend the Giant’s Village had been spread?

Such a thought popped into her mind, and Minerva seemed to understand something.

She continued: “It’s just that the village was recaptured, why treat them so cruelly?”

“What are you talking about, I don’t understand at all.” Facing Minerva’s questioning, Kyôka shook her head slightly.

Not paying attention to what Minerva was thinking.
