Magnolia, Center Street.

A young man with black hair and black clothes slowly walked from the north to the magic guild "Fairy Tail" in the south. His eyes were hidden under his bangs, and he was sizing up the scenery of the town every step he took, as if he was reminiscing about something.

Even though this young man is handsome and young, and is the favorite of many rich wives, the sad look on his face, which is like that of a pretty boy being kept by a rich woman, makes his temperament drop a lot.

No one knows that he is the legendary most evil, darkest, and most terrifying black mage in history, Zeref.

At the same time, another handsome young man with red hair and white clothes walked slowly from the south to the north. His eyes were firm and his expression was serious. Every step he took, his steps became heavier and his temperament became more steady.

This young man is a well-known figure in Magnolia, a star wizard. Everyone in the entire town knows, knows, and disrespects him. He is also deeply admired by many young and beautiful girls.

He is a perfect character existing in a dream.

He is Kira Hopelet!

Pat... pat... pat...

"Why did Zeref suddenly come to our door? Did you invite him to the guild's centenary celebration? It's too late to come now! Everyone else has left..."

Kira muttered and walked forward, walking faster and faster.

Since it is still early, there are not many people on the street. Apart from the old men who get up for exercise in the morning, there are only a few aunts going to the vegetable market. Ordinary wage earners and school kids have not gone out yet. Even the central street is cold.

Deserted.

As Zeref walked along, his eyes gradually turned from sharp to soft.

It's not that he has never been to Magnolia. Not to mention three hundred years ago, he has been here once since the establishment of Fairy Tail, and it was that time that he brought back the body of Mavis.

But that was more than eighty years ago.

The small town that could be described as desolate at the beginning has now become one of the largest towns in the Kingdom of Fiore. Zeref's heart once again felt lonely and lonely.

"This town has changed a lot! There are a lot more things than when I came here... The church is still there, but it is different. It looks quite new. Has it been renovated recently?"

Zeref was also talking to himself, muttering some words that sounded very time-sensitive, and those who didn't know thought he had lived here for how long.

In fact, Zeref didn't have many memories of this place at all. Even the landmark building in Magnolia, the Cathedral of Cardia, he only had a brief impression of.

"Um??"

Suddenly, Zeref's expression changed, his eyes were exposed from his bangs, and he looked straight ahead at the end of the street, where there was a person walking straight towards him.

"This magic power...is that person?"

Zeref remembered the red-haired boy he had fought with on Tianrou Island two years ago.

At the beginning, Zeref was near Tenrou Island, starting from the battle between Fairy Tail and Devil's Heart, and stayed there until the end of the battle between Fairy Tail and Akunololia, destroying the entire guild.

He has a panoramic view of his strength, and at the same time he already has a certain understanding of Kira's strength and talent.

Although in the end Kira solved the crisis in Akunololia by using a trick like 'exile', it was enough to show that his abilities were not inferior to those of Irene and Ogast.

The steps did not stop and continued to move forward.

Zeref recalled the conversation between himself and Kira in the grove: "'Next time we meet, I might have the ability to kill you'... That's what he seemed to have said at the beginning, right?"

"Judging from the amount of magic power, he has almost caught up with Olgaste, even though he is so young... In terms of magical talent, this boy is far above Olgast, almost as good as me!"

Ogast watched Zeref grow up, so he knew clearly that the right-hand man of the empire did not have such strength at this age.

Thinking of this, Zeref smiled lightly and walked forward faster.

Kira didn't stop until the two of them got closer. Coincidentally, the Hope Hut was right next to them.

"Why are you here, Zeref?"

Kira pretended to be calm, trying his best to show that his face was unchanging despite the collapse of the mountain. His sharp eyes were not aimed at Jer's eyes, but looked at the person behind him: "You have been here a few years ago.

, now is not the time we should be!”

He used Gu Yi's lines to make himself appear more professional and competent.

After all, it would be too embarrassing to directly say, "I can't beat you now, so don't come over."

The effect of this move was very good. Zeref, a creature whose emotional intelligence had been worn away by time, did not understand the connotation of Kira's words at all, and his thoughts were immediately taken away by the other party.

"I just came here to see Mavis' guild. If I remember correctly, this year should be the 100th anniversary of the founding of Fairy Tail."

"You don't know, right? The four founders of Fairy Tail, the first president Mavis, the second president Prechto, the father of the current president Makarov, and the Holy Ten

One Volod, the magic of the four of them was taught by me, and they are my disciples."

Mentioning Mavis's name, Zeref couldn't help but reveal a gentle smile on his face, "In other words, 'Fairy Tail' can be regarded as my inheritance in a sense. Can't I come over to participate in the centenary celebration?"

"

I know it so well!

Kira secretly complained about which country this four-hundred-year-old antique came from. The things he mentioned were already known to almost everyone in the top management of "Fairy Tail"!

However, Zeref's answer also reflects one thing, that is: he doesn't know about the changes in the Western Continent yet! He doesn't know that Mavis has been resurrected! He doesn't even know that he is now wearing a soothing curse that can temporarily isolate the gods.

necklace!

Otherwise, he would not have said that he was here to 'participate in the guild's centenary celebration', but rather to 'come to see Ogast and others' or 'to come to see Mavis'.

Because Zeref may not care about the Alvares Empire, Ogast, or the other Twelve Shields of the Saints, but he will never care about Mebis!

This is true regardless of his life goals or his suppressed emotions.

Thinking of this, Kira's tense muscles immediately relaxed.

It's okay, okay...as long as you're not looking for someone...

In Kira's mind, as long as the other party doesn't have as much information as he does, he will have enough confidence to deceive the other party with his sharp tongue!

"No, I know what you said!"

Kira adjusted her non-existent glasses: "Not only do I know that the four of them are your disciples, but I also know that one of the three major super magics inherited by the guild, 'Fairy Law', is the magic you taught to the first generation. She is

Because I used that trick, I will be cursed like you!"

Phew!!

In a daze, Zeref felt his heart being stabbed hard, and a wave of guilt and regret surged into his heart.

"Speaking of which, don't you think it's strange?"

"Strange...what??"

"After my investigation, the curse of Anxeram is a curse that can only be found by those who have desecrated their lives!"

Kira said, pointing at Zeref, "You are cursed because you tried to resurrect a dead life. This is right. However, the first generation did not have the same level of behavior and just used immature 'laws'

Just be cursed, the price is too high!"

Zeref was suddenly stunned, and after two seconds of silence he spoke with difficulty: "That's because 'law' also involves the concept of 'life', and Mavis's magic power at the time was not enough to support this move...

"

"That's not right!"

Kira shook his head and said firmly: "I have studied and used that 'law' trick myself, and I clearly know how dangerous it is."

"Created based on the 'Fairy Law', Precito's 'Devil's Law' and my 'Fairy Trial' are more powerful and also involve life. They were also launched when they were immature.

, but nothing happened at all.”

"If you use it in an immature state, you will be cursed, but when you are mature, you will not be cursed. This doesn't make any sense, does it?"

Zeref's originally calm face finally showed ripples, and he looked at Kira with wide eyes: "So..."

"So, the first generation will be cursed, probably not because of the use of immature 'laws', but because of the use of 'laws taught by you personally'."
