As soon as Luo Xingchen finished speaking, Miraj spoke up immediately.
"Wait a minute, aren't you planning... to face the entire empire alone?"
Not only Miraj, but even Urdia and the others on the side nodded in agreement.
Said: "Is it really okay for one person to face so many powerful wizards?"
"Don't worry, I'm confident in my strength." Luo Xingchen smiled, with a certainty in his tone.
"Besides, it's just holding a few people back, there won't be any problem."
"At least... let me help you." Miraj gritted his teeth and insisted on speaking.
"It doesn't matter, it would be better for you to be in charge of responding. Even if Gajeel is here, if he meets someone with twelve shields, the chances of winning are not great."
"But..." Miraj wanted to say something else.
But was immediately interrupted by Luo Xingchen: "That's the decision, let's contact Leibby and the others as soon as possible."
"…All right."
While the few people were talking, the burst of cheers from the outside world instantly attracted the attention of Luo Xingchen and the others.
That was a cheer that was countless times more intense than the one that resounded before.
"Your Majesty the Emperor!"
"Superrigan!!"
Similar shouts kept echoing in Luo Xingchen's ears.
Let the few people present look at each other in blank dismay.
"Superrigan...has the emperor of this empire returned?" Luo Xingchen murmured in a low voice.
Then he stood up from the sofa and walked to the window sill.
Push open the window.
In an instant, the noisy voice became more intensive.
Both sides of the street below were packed with people at this moment.
The faces of the crowd were flushed from the lack of oxygen after the roar, and the enthusiasm in the eyes could not be lingered...
—————
at the same time.
The fierce cheers also spread throughout Vestalian.
In other words, the entire Vestalian should be cheering.
Cheers to their long-lost Emperor His Majesty!
It is located in the sky garden on the second floor of the villa near the palace.
The two gray-haired old men seemed to be attracted by the loud cheers.
Stunned, he walked to the edge of the hanging garden and looked down through the guardrail.
Below, the wide street leading directly to the palace and castle became extremely narrow surrounded by the enthusiastic residents.
However, despite the congestion, there is still a trail in the center.
All pedestrians stood on both sides of the street.
At this moment, they are like fanatical believers, chanting the name of their emperor.
Superrigan!
And the eyes of the two old men were also fixed on the figure walking slowly at the end of the street.
"It seems that His Majesty the Emperor has returned..."
One of them, an old man with a hunched back and a cane, spoke slowly.
That is the Minister of the Alvarez Empire, Yakir!
At the same time, he has another identity, one of the Twelve Shields of the Alvarez Empire, and the grandfather of the desert king Agil.
"Finally let me wait!"
The words of another short old man also faintly revealed excitement.
Makarov Dolea!
A year ago, Makarov, who disbanded Fairy Tail, came to this empire alone.
The purpose is to meet the emperor of this huge empire.
And negotiate with it in an attempt to get it to cancel its intention to invade Ishgar.
However, after Makarov arrived, he did not see the emperor of the empire.
According to Yakir's words, His Majesty the Emperor seems to be still traveling the whole world.
But maybe it's because Yakir himself is a person who doesn't like war.
Also, Makarov's hole cards are too heavy.
So much so that even the Twelve Shields of the Guardians can only wait for the reason why the emperor is making plans after his return.
Makarov stayed in the Alvarez Empire.
Let it wait for the return of His Majesty the Emperor, and then the Emperor will make a decision.
But now, hard work pays off.
Makarov finally waited.
"Don't worry, this matter must have reached the ears of His Majesty the Emperor. With His Majesty's character of loving life, he should agree with you."
It seemed that he could hear the slightest anxiety between Makarov's words.
"As long as there is a nod from His Majesty, even the [Shields] of the main combat faction will choose to obey."
"After everything is over, you can return to the guild."
Listening to Yakir's words, Makarov's uneasy mood gradually calmed down.
"Yeah...the family is still waiting..."
Suddenly, Makarov's words stopped abruptly.
His widened eyes stared at the figure that gradually became clear as he approached.
The pupils began to tremble violently.
Cold sweat involuntarily dripped from his forehead.
"That person..." He murmured in disbelief.
He stared fixedly at the person coming.
Amidst the grand cheers, the man who always showed loneliness was walking forward with sonorous steps.
There was neither a smile nor sadness on his face.
He seemed to be walking on an empty street, ignoring the cheers and respect from everyone around him.
"Jeff...".
Chapter 684 The Undead Who Started the War!
"Jerf is still the emperor of the Alvarez Empire... that Superrigan..."
In an inn in the town of Westalion.
Urdia retreated from the window and sat on the sofa.
His tone was unusually low.
Even Luo Xingchen, who was on the side, frowned. Obviously, Luo Xingchen's emotions were not high at the moment.
Originally, I thought that I could see the true face of the emperor of this huge military empire today.
But he didn't expect that the emperor turned out to be someone he had known for a long time.
Black Mage Zeref!
Known as the negative legacy of the times, it has created countless terrifying black devils~Guardians.
It is also the source of fear of many wizards in the bright magic world-.
Although... the nature of this black mage is actually exceptionally kind, he just keeps wandering around the world.
Find a way to kill yourself.
But, in fact, it's not a good thing to say.
His kindness is of no use, and his existence itself is cursed by the **** Anxelam.
It is the biggest original sin in this world!
As long as he exists in this world, the tragedy caused by his existence will never stop.
And what alarmed Luo Xingchen the most was why Jeref was the emperor of such a huge empire?
Just the name Superrigan alone, combined with Jeff is definitely not that simple.
After all, Shuperigan means ugly goblin, so Luo Xingchen had to associate it with his guild.
Linked to Fairy Tail.
Although I don't know what kind of relationship Jeff has with his guild.
but…
"Superrigan... Ugly goblin, what is the purpose of a person like Zeref who has been looking for death to establish the Alvarez Empire under this name?"
Luo Xingchen scratched his head a little irritably.
"Remember, the last moment of the Hades Gate War?" Xue Nai seemed to have thought of something.
He looked at several people and said.
"At that time, Naz and the others said that when they were competing for the END book, they met Jeff. He took the END book and... said some words."
Luo Xingchen who heard Xue Nai's words raised his head and looked at Xue Nai.
"What words?"
Yukino touched her chin with her fingertips, and after thinking about it in her mind, she said:
"During the chat, Gray seemed to say [If we can survive the disaster of Akunologia, then he will bring us greater despair] or something like that."
"Greater despair..." Luo Xingchen whispered.
He didn't think Jeff's words were joking.
It must be serious, that is to say, Jeff had already issued a death declaration a year ago.
And now considering that guy is the emperor of the Alvarez Empire...
"It looks like Jeff is going to declare war!" Luo Xingchen's face was serious.
Taking a deep breath, he seemed to have deduced something, and continued: "The curse of God Anxelam is also meant to be a curse of contradiction. Therefore, Jeref may also be in contradiction."
"On the one hand, I am trying to find a way to kill myself in the world."
"However, on the other side, they are also looking for a way to keep themselves alive, and judging from all the previous information, the Alvarez Empire is likely to be the absolute power that Zeref created to change everything."
"Although I don't know how he can get rid of the curse of God Anxelam, it must be related to the invasion of Ishgar, which is why he wants to attack Ishgar."
"It sounds really confusing. Why is this guy so complicated?" Melti scratched her head helplessly after listening to everyone's conversation.
Puzzled all over his face.
"Of course it's complicated. That guy has been stuck in the choice between life and death for a long time. He probably has long been abnormal." Luo Xingchen sighed softly.
"In other words, what we are actually facing is a complete lunatic."
