Chapter 126: How about letting me be Jellal’s follower?
"I must have looked so cool just now!"
After leaving, Disper was ecstatic and secretly proud of what he had just said and done. He was just sorry that he didn't borrow a magic crystal from Kira to record it.
"I think the battle just now would be great if it were made into a movie! Especially the last line 'Beautiful cherry blossoms', ah, I was impressed by how handsome it was!"
Disper walked and talked to himself, his body twisting as if he had a seizure, "I can't imagine that's what I would say! It turns out that the novels I read these two days were not in vain!"
Disper felt that if he were the protagonist of the novel, he might have charmed the female swordsman named Turtle Dove, although he only had swords in his heart... Oh, now there are novels too.
He had only taken a few steps when he met Erza who had just arrived.
"Hey, Erza! What a coincidence!"
"Disper? Um, what's going on?"
It's no wonder Erza was puzzled. It was just that Disper's expression was a little weird. How should I put it? If I asked her to use a novel she had borrowed from Levi to describe him, it would be "That boy is so handsome"... or "That boy is so bad"?
"Oh, nothing. I just faced off against a swordsman with great potential. It felt really good to beat him!"
As soon as Erza heard it, she knew who he was talking about: "Is it the last of the Three Crows? It seems that Jellal is the only enemy left!"
After saying that, she quickened her pace and Dispere followed immediately.
"Kira should have already fought Jellal by now, right? If you rush over now, maybe they've already finished the fight..."
"That's why I have to hurry. I have to put an end to what's going on between Jellal and I!"
Disper complained: "Tsk! Come on, you can't do it!"
"I can do it! I will put an end to Jellal's crimes myself!"
However, Erza's firm tone did not change Disper's opinion.
"It's not pleasant to have love and hate intertwined! I know this feeling very well. These days, I really love and hate novels. I love them because they let me see a wider world, but I hate them because they ruin my swordsmanship."
"Really? If I were asked to destroy those treasured books, how could I have the heart to do it?"
Erza: “…”
"Well, it must be hard to have your love killed in its infancy, right?" Dispere said sarcastically without showing any emotion. "Hope is right in front of you, but because the person you like has been brainwashed and his personality has changed drastically, this feeling of loss must be very uncomfortable!"
"So what Kira said is right. Humans shouldn't set flags. Otherwise, it will only lead to tragedy."
"Shut up!" Erza yelled, then thought of something, "What did you mean by brainwashing?"
Disper slapped the back of his head and said, "Oh, right, you don't know these things! Kira told me that a few hours ago. The reason why Jellal is so eager to resurrect Zeref in the Tower of Paradise is because..."
…
While Disper was fighting Ikaruga, Kira faced Jellal just as they had guessed.
"I didn't expect the first person to come here would be you, Kira Hopelet!"
"I didn't expect you to be able to keep your composure. Some of your subordinates were defeated, some rebelled. Is it because you haven't paid them their salaries that they are like this?"
Faced with Kira's train of thought, Jellal could only remain silent.
"The Council should be preparing to release the magic spirit power. 2.7 billion magic power, it sounds like it will last a long time."
Kira looked around and said to himself in an unimportant tone, "How much money can I make if I sell all these magic crystals? I guess I won't have to !"
"Hmm?" The more Jellal listened, the more he felt something was wrong. He wondered if this guy had also set his sights on the Tower of Paradise.
"What do you mean?"
"What I mean is, once the magic power of the magic spirit force is injected in, this tower made of magic crystal will be mine!"
It can't be said that his attitude is extremely arrogant, it can only be said that he doesn't take Gerard seriously at all.
Jellal did not respond to Kira's words immediately. At this moment, he had only one question in his mind: "How did this guy know the true face of the Paradise Tower?"
After thinking for a long time, he still couldn't figure out the reason, so he could only laugh awkwardly: "Knowing the true face of the Paradise Tower, Kira Hopelet, you really surprised me! But, if you want to get the Paradise Tower, you have to defeat me first! Can you do it?"
“Tsk, even if your thought form Zikrein returns to its original form, you’re just a Saint Ten,” Kira taunted rudely, “Saint Ten? It’s just a unit of measurement for strength, as if you can’t beat anyone!”
Jellal was already surprised that Kira knew about the Tower of Paradise, but now that he even knew Zikrein's true identity, Jellal had to start thinking about where he went wrong.
I should not have had a private conversation with him using the identity of Zekrein. Even if we count the entire Fairy Tail, they only had one private encounter, which was the first meeting between Zekrein and Erza several years ago. But that time he used the identity of "Jellal's twin brother" to deceive her.
All actions should be secretive, so how did Kira know?
Could it be Urrutia?
The biggest possibility is that there is a traitor around him, and the first person Jellal thought of was Urrutia, who was by his side all year round. She knew all his actions!
Although he had doubts in his heart, this was a critical moment and Gerard didn't want to add any more variables, so he remained expressionless.
He knew very well that Urrutia's strength was not something that could be easily controlled. Even if she really had ulterior motives, at least their goals were the same so far.
As long as he can resurrect Zeref, all the ghosts and monsters will be nothing but clowns, whether it is Urrutia or Kira in front of him.
Poor Gerard, he is still being played around by Urrutia.
"Are you still dreaming of reviving Jeref?"
Attacking a city is inferior to attacking the enemy's heart. Using words to demoralize the enemy before a battle is a very common method.
Kira will not give up this good card if he can solve the problem by using covert means instead of direct confrontation. It will only take some words to solve the problem.
The effect was significant, and these words immediately attracted Gerard's attention.
The purpose of building the Tower of Paradise is to resurrect Jellal and create a world where Jellal exists. Only such a world is a real paradise!
This is what Jellal has always thought and said to his men. He already knew that Simon and his men had rebelled, so he was not surprised that Kira knew this.
Influenced by Ultear, he is now a fanboy who blindly believes in Zeref. When he heard Kira talking about Zeref, he immediately focused his attention.
"I've seen a lot of people like you. You always want to revive something. Last time I met someone who wanted to revive a demon. His purpose was to eat the demon and become stronger. The one before that also wanted to revive a demon. His purpose was to defeat the demon and prove his strength. But the results were never satisfactory."
Speaking of this, Kira himself couldn't help but sigh that the world with magic is different, and the resurrection ceremonies are one after another...
"Oh, why is that?"
Jellal asked cooperatively. If Kira wanted to talk, he would talk with him. Now he wished he could delay it a little longer.
"The resurrection of Deliora failed because it was killed by the absolute freeze. The plan to eat the Sea Demon King failed because the magic was flawed. I can tell you very clearly that your plan to resurrect Jeref is also doomed to fail in the end!"
"Hahaha..." Gerard laughed after hearing that, and spoke after a long while, "I thought you were going to say something, but this is it?"
His expression was quite smug, as if he was saying, "You also have things you don't know." "That's right, it's normal for someone like you not to know. The Tower of Paradise, formerly known as the Resurrection System, is a magic created by the Dark Mage Zeref 400 years ago. It has no flaws!!"
“Hahahaha…” Kira laughed back at Jellal, “I thought you were going to say something, but this is it?”
Not only do I know that this was created by Jellal, I also know why he created this magic. Am I proud of myself? I also know what he became because of creating this magic. Am I arrogant?
"What a fool you are! You know nothing, yet you want to use this magic to revive Jellal. How about I become Jellal's believer?"
Jellal was surprised by Kira's reaction: "What did you say?!"
"The reason why I said your plan is doomed to fail is not because of any flaws in the magic, but because - Zeref is not dead at all!"
