If he hadn't been blinded by rage and attacked Deliora, Uru wouldn't have lost his life protecting him.
Filled with self-blame and sorrow, Grey transformed into a melancholic prince, shrouded in an aura of despondency, and began to regress towards isolation...
"We'll talk about your matter later."
Fang Rui didn't continue discussing this matter, but returned to the initial topic: "Regarding how to deal with Leon, my suggestion is... to resolve his obsession, and then have him compensate the residents of Galna Island..."
"As for speculations that haven't happened yet, there's no need to pin them on Leon. The most important thing is that it hasn't happened..."
Erza and the others looked at each other for a while, but did not say anything in rebuttal.
After all, most mages deal with such situations in a simple and brutal way. If the mistake is minor, they will give the person a few words of advice and ask them to correct their ways. If the mistake is serious, they will give them a beating and then hand them over to the Magic Council for handling.
The Magic Council's prison does hold quite a few criminals, but unfortunately, they often escape.
"How do we resolve this obsession?" Erza grasped the key point in Fang Rui's words.
"Let him fight Deliola."
Upon hearing this, Erza frowned, Gray hesitated, Natsu was eager to try, Lucy looked horrified, Leon was surprised and expectant, and the rest were stunned...
The person hidden in the forest wore a strange expression, having achieved their goal in an unexpected way.
"You're not kidding?!" Erza's tone was serious.
"Don't worry, since I dared to let him out, I naturally have a way to deal with him."
Before Erza could refute, he continued to explain, "Besides, after being exposed to the Moon Drops for so long, the seal is already in grave danger, and its disappearance is only a matter of time."
"Either we release him and kill him, or we find someone to reseal him. There are no other options."
Hearing this, everyone fell silent.
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
Erza is a straightforward person who doesn't hesitate. Since there are no other options, she chooses the simplest one.
Speaking of which...
She looked at Harpy and thought that having Harpy call for help was a good idea, but unfortunately it was easy to get lost on the high seas and there were too many uncertainties.
"First, escort these people to the village, then inform the villagers, and then proceed..."
Natsu and the others did not object to Erza's decision, partly because there was nothing to object to, and partly because they did not have the courage to object to Erza.
After all, he had been beaten up since he was a child, and the fear was etched into his heart.
However, some of the prisoners had objections. Many of these people were victims of Deliora's atrocities, and wanting to witness Deliora's destruction was a legitimate demand, but...
What right do a bunch of prisoners have to make demands? If you get caught up in the battle, are you going to... not save them?
Therefore, Erza directly eliminated the possibility of some people causing trouble.
"Alright, I'll leave this to you. I'll go check out the cave where Deliora is first."
With that, Fang Rui turned and left the area, slowly making his way along the narrow, overgrown path...
A few minutes later, a person suddenly darted out of the woods and came to Fang Rui's side.
"Hey~ young man, nice to meet you!"
The speaker appeared to be very thin and short, wearing a cloth robe and a mask, and with his aged and hoarse voice, he was easily mistaken for an old man.
But in fact……
"Why would a beautiful girl pretend to be an old woman? Is it because you can't let others see your face?"
"Urutiya!"
Urudia, who had initially been somewhat arrogant, fell silent after hearing Fang Rui's words...
But she didn't remove her disguise; she simply changed her voice from hoarse and deep to a clear, bell-like female voice.
"How did you find out?"
Urutia was very curious.
Her original appearance was that of a stunning beauty, but her disguise was... a cloaked figure whose face was not even shown, and her height and voice were also vastly different.
They are completely two different people.
How exactly was her identity discovered?! Was it magic?
"Uru told me," Fang Rui lied.
“Some jokes shouldn’t be made lightly.” Ultear’s voice suddenly turned low, brewing with murderous intent.
Everyone has taboos in their heart, and once touched, they will explode with a "bang".
It is clear that the taboo in Urutia's heart is Uru.
The reason stems from a misunderstanding in childhood.
“You think I’m joking, but I’m not. Absolute Freeze is a magic that Uru cast at the cost of his life, which means that Uru’s soul is also in the ice.”
"By touching the ice with your hand, under certain conditions, you can see Uru's memories."
"Do you think... you meet the criteria?! Do you think... what you know of the 'truth' is all there is?"
Seemingly sensing something, Urudia abruptly turned her head, her sharp gaze shooting out from the slits of her mask, piercing straight into Fang Rui's face, and said, word by word, "What do you mean?! What do you know?!"
"Want to know? Go look at Uru's memories!"
Since words are meaningless, it's easier to present evidence directly.
Upon hearing this, Urudia adjusted her mindset and instead of continuing to travel with Fang Rui, she sped up her journey to the cave where Deliora was located.
Fang Rui had anticipated this.
Whether in the past or present, Uru has always held a high position in Urutia's heart.
It's simply a difference between love and hate.
"Speaking of which, it's true that Uru has memories in the ice, but as for the soul... does it exist, or not?"
"I used to just say it casually, directly mentioning the soul, but does a soul even exist...?"
Fang Rui, who hadn't touched the ice himself, said... he didn't know.
but……
That's quite interesting; I'd like to look into it.
If there is a soul in the ice, it might be possible to try to revive Uru.
It's just a physical body; he has many ways to get one...
It can even be customized to individual preferences.
As for why this was done...
Reviving a person should be considered touching the taboo of life and death! So... will Ankhseram come out to cast a curse on him?
I'm quite curious!
Even if Anksera Ram actually shows up, Fang Rui will still not panic at all.
After all... if he's so capable, let him come and fight me from another field!
at the same time……
After settling everyone in, Erza and the others set off for the temple ruins, preparing for the final battle.
Not long ago, Erza and the others encountered a demon, the Spell Song Demon "Lalabai." Without personally fighting it, they couldn't give an accurate estimate of its strength, but...
To be fair, the pressure that "Lalabai" brought when she appeared was immense!
My first impression was... this guy is incredibly skilled!
Therefore, Erza and the others underestimated Deliora's ideas.
After some time, the group arrived at the cave where Deliora was located...
Inside the cave at this moment.
Urudia maintained her disguise; after all, given her special status, it was understandable that she needed to conceal her identity.
She crouched in the corner of the cave, her whole being enveloped in a low-pressure atmosphere, exuding a sense of sadness.
Leon and the others were quite surprised. This person had been with them for a long time and had always been mysterious. Why was he so sad?
Shouldn't we be happy that Deliora is about to be destroyed?!
Why is it sadness?!
Natsu and the others were puzzled. Where did this stranger come from?
Instead of staring at any one person, everyone quickly turned their attention to Deliora, who was frozen in ice.
To be fair, demons possess an inherent sense of power and intimidation, perhaps due to their ferocious appearance.
The group of people had different thoughts, and then they all stared at a certain person next to the ice block, Fang Rui, who was stroking the ice block.
Why touch the ice?
And...why does your expression look so strange?
A few doubts flashed through the minds of Leon and the others, but without delving into the details, they all stepped forward and came to Fang Rui's back.
"Fang Rui, do we need to make some preparations before breaking Deliora's seal?" Erza asked.
"It's needed." Upon hearing this, Fang Rui paused in his touch of the ice, speaking without turning his head.
"You all step back and take a moment to calm down!"
After saying something to everyone and they stepped back, Fang Rui began to rescue the people.
Upon inspection, it was confirmed that Uru's soul was indeed present in the ice, but it was extremely weak.
Whether it was due to the weakening of Absolute Freeze or the erosion of Deliora's life force, gradually draining his power...
Speaking of which, Absolute Freeze was formed by Uru... This ice is essentially Uru's body...
So... when he touches the ice here, it's the same as touching Uru's body.
This caused the atmosphere to suddenly become tense.
Thinking this, the little blue hand gathered the souls in the ice and condensed them into a ball of light.
