I, Yhwach, join the chat group

The ground was constantly exploding. Irene chuckled, grabbed her wand, and flew close to the ground like a bird, dodging all kinds of attacks.

"It's amazing that he can achieve this at such a young age."

While dodging the attack, Irene spoke with ease, "I've changed my mind. Since you're planning to hold a tournament and offer prizes, I'll follow your rules. My name is Irene Belserion, remember that!"

As soon as she finished speaking, her figure flew away and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"Teleport?"

Mira was stunned. "You even know this kind of magic?"

"That's not teleportation. There's no obvious spatial fluctuation. It's probably some kind of displacement conversion magic..."

It's like the cup of water on the table and the teapot on the stool have been displaced and exchanged.

"It's a pity that she escaped. We didn't find out her identity." Mira said regretfully.

"Hehehe... This woman is quite remarkable. She is the founder of dragon-slaying magic. Four hundred years ago, she was the Queen of the Kingdom of Dragnov."

"400 years ago!?"

Mira was shocked. She looked to be only in her twenties, but she turned out to be an old witch who was over four hundred years old.

No wonder it’s so strong!

"An old witch?" The Lord of Fear laughed and said, "It really is... an old witch."

……

About thirty kilometers away from the royal capital, on a driveway, a white light flashed, and Irene appeared out of thin air.

"I was careless. I didn't expect she had that kind of power. It would take some effort to subdue that little girl. Unfortunately, it's too late."

Irene shook her head helplessly.

She sensed a terrifying aura coming from underground in the royal capital. It was a giant dragon, and not just any dragon, but an extremely powerful dragon.

To be cautious, she did not continue to entangle with Mira, but chose to leave.

"It seems that if I want the magic of the abyss, I can only participate in the Great Demonic Battle." She chuckled and said, "Dragon King Festival? I really don't want to recall it!"

As she was speaking, her expression suddenly changed.

On the road ahead, a wisp of black smoke gathered and transformed into a figure covered in black.

"Don't be nervous, I'm not here to arrest you."

The shadow demon said, "Erin Belserion, from the Western 3.9 continent, the Albares Empire, one of the Twelve Holy Shields, the mother of the Dragon Slayer Mages, the Holy Dragon Slayer Mages. She is the second mage after Acnologia who can freely transform into a dragon."

"who are you?"

Irene's face darkened.

"I told you not to be nervous. If I had any ill intentions, do you think you could have escaped the capital?"

Shadow Demon said indifferently, "I am the Dream Messenger. The Vice President admires your strength and invites you to join the Giant Dragon Legion."

Without waiting for the other party to answer, he continued, "If you join the Giant Dragon Legion, we can cure the aftereffects of your body. You have lost your sense of taste and can't sleep because of the aftereffects of dragonization. You are actually a dragon, but you can only maintain human form. But we can restore you to true humanity!"

"What did you say?!" Irene was surprised and a little bit unbelieving.

"Besides that, about your daughter... Erza Shuka, no, Erza Belserion!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Irene's face changed drastically.

Chapter 270 "Terrible" Side Effects

[Second update ~ I'm 4 updates behind, as I recall, not . Mainly because Feilu crashed a few days ago, causing my sleep and sleep schedule to get messed up. The updates these past few days have all been after midnight.]

……

"Besides that, about your daughter... Erza Belserion!"

Hearing this suddenly, Irene's expression became a little unnatural, and a few fluctuations flashed in her sharp eyes.

Erza... I haven't heard this name for a long time.

"What are you talking about?" Irene tightened the wand in her hand.

The Shadow Demon remained silent about the woman's pretense of ignorance, instead continuing, "She's alive and well. Don't you want to be reunited with your daughter? She inherited the strength and courage of your youth and has grown into an outstanding woman."

When Erza was very young, she was captured by the Black Magic Cult and became a slave in the Tower of Paradise.

Later, she finally escaped and joined Fairy Tail. Because of the influence of the environment, she developed a strong character and was called the "Fairy Queen".

So, what before that?

Before being captured by the Black Magic Cult, Erza lived in a village called "Rosemary".

It was Irene who abandoned her own daughter there.

This woman was already pregnant before she turned into a dragon. After that, her body turned into a giant dragon and she carried Erza in her body for nearly four hundred years. It was not until she was met by Zeref and regained her human form that she gave birth to Erza.

Shortly after giving birth, Irene abandoned Erza in Rosemary Village.

As Irene heard Shadow Demon recount the past events bit by bit, her expression became uglier and uglier.

It was like a scar was exposed, making her feel nervous.

"...There's nothing to suck at. Everyone has a past that is unknown to others."

The shadow demon spoke calmly, "Now, we can give you a chance. Not only can you be restored to human form, but from now on, you will truly master the power of dragonization. You can also be reunited with your daughter."

Hearing this, Irene stared at Shadow Demon and gritted her teeth, "Who are you, Dream?"

Knowing even such things is no longer something that can be described as having supernatural powers.

If I had to describe it, it would be something like knowing everything about the past and present? Omniscient and omnipotent?

"Well? You don't have to rush to answer, you can think about it carefully."

The Shadow Demon shook his head and said, "If you agree, then come and participate in the Grand Magical Battle. Remember to tell the other Twelve Shields about this magical event. If you can get Zeref to participate, it will be a great achievement for you."

"We don't know where Jellal is..."

"That's your problem. But even if you don't go looking for him, Jellal will show up when the time comes..."

The great demon fighting show will soon attract countless attention. Even in the deep mountains and forests, Jellal will know some news.

Thinking of this, the shadow demon immediately stretched out his hand, broke through the void, and took out a tube of real dragon blood from the shadow world.

He threw it to Irene and said, "This is prepared dragon blood. If you drink it, you can restore your sense of taste, turn back into a human, and enjoy a good sleep afterwards. So, goodbye, Dragon Queen."

With a low laugh, the shadow demon's body puffed and turned into a cloud of black smoke, which drifted away.

Irene got the real dragon blood and her expression was complicated.

On the one hand, no one had cared about her for four hundred years, and suddenly someone said this to her, which made her feel very strange and subtle.

On the other hand, in front of this dream, she seemed to have no secrets at all, naked and seen through at a glance.

"A mysterious organization."

She stared at the dragon blood in her hand, lost in thought. "According to the intelligence I've gathered recently, Dream is a dark guild that suddenly rose to prominence a few months ago. Its origins are mysterious, and its members are powerful. So, are they the masterminds behind this Grand Demonic Battle?"

What's the purpose?

Irene couldn't help but think deeply about it, but she couldn't guess it for a while.

"The abyssal magic I sensed last time must be the magical lifeforms they created. With their power, they can indeed use the magic of the abyss. Whether it's for what he said or for that magic, we must participate in the Grand Demon Fighting Martial Arts."

As for the "letter of allegiance" that Shadow Demon asked her to submit before she left, this requires serious consideration.

"Interesting, I'd like to see what you guys want to do."

Irene smiled and put the dragon blood away. "It's probably going to be some time before the Great Demonic Battle begins. Before that, I'll first study what he gave me... and see if it can really heal me."

……

The Kingdom of Fiore, the royal capital.

With Irene's evacuation, the battle came to an end.

The outside world did not know the specific outcome of the battle, but Miss Mira returned to the palace safely, which made other wizards subconsciously think that the invading enemy had been eliminated.

After this battle, many wizards who had other thoughts suppressed their inner thoughts.

It seems unrealistic to want to snatch the magic of the abyss. Mira's strength is beyond expectations, and I am afraid that the ordinary Ten Saints are no match for her.

Therefore, if you want to obtain that magic, you have to participate in the Great Demon Fighting Exercise.

royal palace.

Mira touched the acceptance magic and returned to the palace.

The king came forward and said cautiously, "Great Mage Mira, what was that just now?"

"The invaders have been repelled. Don't worry, Your Majesty. Please continue building the venue."

Hearing this, the king heaved a sigh of relief and patted his chest to assure, "No problem, Miss Mira, please rest assured. We will mobilize the army and the knights, and the construction will be completed in as little as a month!"

"That's good."

Mira smiled slightly, like sunshine, making people feel like spring breeze.

Because the original residence was bombed, the king arranged a new residence. After Mira answered the room, she did not see Lucy.

Just as I was about to go look for it, a crow flew in from the window.

"Mr. Uchiha."

"Just call me Itachi."

The crow landed on her head and praised her emotionlessly, "Well done this time. How does it feel to have your strength back?"

"I just want to save Lisanna," Mira looked back, probably thinking of her sister from when she was 980. "By the way, Mr. Itachi, didn't Lucy see it?"

"She's in the Dragon Cemetery. I asked a giant dragon to train her. She'll be back in a few days."

Uchiha Itachi's gaze was far-reaching, and his three-magatama eyes seemed to see through everything. "Now everything is ready, only the east wind is missing. The Council...is about to take action. For the next few days, you will stay in the palace."

As he spoke, he flapped his wings and flew out.

"Are we going to take any action?" Mira murmured doubtfully.

"Hey, to snipe the council, of course."

Suddenly, the voice of the Great Demon of Fear sounded.
