"No... wrong..."
"Back then, I treated this period of my life as my first life, so I was capable of doing anything, no matter how cruel or inhumane."
"Because I know that once the Great Magic World is completed and the Arc of Time is perfected, we can begin your second life, and your true second life. We will be very happy."
Everything I've done is for this purpose!
"Sorry!!"
After Ultear finished speaking sadly, she closed her eyes, but couldn't stop the tears from flowing. Her lower lip was bitten tightly as she struggled to say those words, and then she offered no further explanation.
Meredy's hope vanished in an instant, as if the entire sky had lost its original color.
How she longed to hear from Ultear that she hadn't done it, to hear her explain that she had been coerced, but now that she knew the truth, she didn't know what she truly was.
At this moment, Meredy's Magic Power began to leak out uncontrollably, her hands clenched tightly, and her body began to tremble uncontrollably. Instantly, countless twin swords appeared behind her, pointing straight at her.
But she didn't take any further action. Tears streamed down her face. She still couldn't bring herself to do it, because... because Ultear was like a mother to her.
How could such feelings be fake? But it was Ultear herself who destroyed her hometown. The intertwining of love and hatred caused Meredy's heart to be torn in two by pain.
"I thought so too, you must want to kill me... but..."
Looking at the child she had raised, Ultear's heart was filled with love and guilt. She had committed a grave sin that she could not atone for.
This time, we must not let Meredy's hands get dirty again.
With a "thud," a long sword pierced her abdomen and emerged from the other end. Ultear looked at Meredy with endless guilt in her eyes.
He wanted to reach out and touch Meredy again, but his body was already swaying, and he didn't have the strength to take a step.
"Meredy... I'm sorry, let's forget about all of this..."
"You... you will definitely find happiness, I love you the most, May... Meredy!"
While Meredy was still caught up in her own emotions, Ultear had already plunged her sword into her own body.
Before Meredy could stop it, she could only watch helplessly as Ultear. At that moment, a hole opened in her heart, her eyes were lifeless, and she seemed unable to accept this ending.
"No!!"
"Ultear..."
Meredy screamed and immediately scooped up the fallen Ultear in her arms, helplessly checking Ultear's injuries. She herself was too weak to lift Ultear up.
"Quick... quick, someone come quick... quick, someone come quick..." he kept shouting those three words.
"We must live on. I know your sorrow and regret!"
"Ultear is the one who raised me, and that will never change!"
Ultear tremblingly reached out and wiped away Meredy's tears. Seeing the pinkish glow on her hand, she understood everything.
Meredy looked at the powerless Ultear, her heart filled with terror, and she continued to cry out in anguish, "I... I forgive you, I forgive you, please... please, don't leave me alone!"
"We'll live together, I love you the most!!"
Ultear listened to Meredy's cries, tears streamed down her face uncontrollably. She wanted to hold Meredy tightly in her arms.
"Tap tap~" Footsteps came from afar, and from beside a tree, Ur's figure appeared in front of the two of them.
"Ultear?" Ur exclaimed in surprise.
Upon seeing the wounds on Ultear's body, he quickly flashed away and froze the wounds with Ice Magic. Looking at the tightly clasped hands of Ultear and Meredy in front of him, he seemed to understand something.
He scooped up Ultear and the still-dazed Meredy in his arms, saying, "Don't worry, Ultear will be alright." He patted Meredy's back reassuringly.
"I'm sorry! All these sins are my fault! I'm so sorry..." Ur felt very sorry for the child in front of her. She knew what Ultear had done before.
Therefore, after joining Fairy Tail, he has been atoning for his sins and doing his best to help anyone in need during his missions.
"Let's go home!" Ur said gently, and a golden Magic Circle rose up beneath her feet, causing the three of them to disappear from the spot.
The gears of life keep turning forward, and all we can do is believe in our partners and believe that the next generation will surely create a better tomorrow.
On the other side Cana punched Capricorn Caprico away, but her attack power was reduced due to the influence of his Human Subordination Magic — King Magic.
It wasn't done with a single punch.
"What kind of Magic is this? Why has my attack power decreased?!" Cana exclaimed in surprise.
"It's Human Subordination Magic from ancient Magic, also known as King Magic!!"
"Human? Subordinate?"
"Simply put, it's Magic that temporarily reduces a person's combat abilities and Magic Power!"
Loke answered in a deep voice.
After observing for a few minutes, he was able to confirm that the one in front of him was a Celestial Spirit, just like him.
"However, this Magic is ineffective against me! And..."
Loke finished Requip and straightened his tie, when a gust of wind flashed past him.
"Knowing the corresponding Magic makes things easy; it just means reduced attack power!"
"If that's the case, then I'll go all out. I don't believe he can go any lower!"
Cana clenched her fists, unleashed her full Observation Haki, and as she sprinted, countless cards flew out and surrounded her.
As Cana flicked her finger, the card hurtled towards Caprico, instantly unleashing its Magic. With the help of Cana's Observation Haki, it successfully blocked all of Caprico's escape routes.
"Open up, Heroes of the Old Era!"
With a flick of Caprico's wrist, all the heroes of the old era were summoned, but they were utterly powerless to withstand Cana's all-out attack.
"What?! This woman!"
"Hateful!"
At this moment, Caprico showed a hint of panic as he watched Cana rushing towards him. He spun his hands back and forth, summoning heroic figures to block the Magic attack.
Both of them jumped back and forth on the field at top speed, colliding with each other.
The resulting shockwave also reached Gray, Loke, Lucy, but was blocked by the two men.
They exchanged a glance and said helplessly, "Oh dear, it seems we're not needed anymore!"
