Chapter 620: Emerald Princess: If I kill Jellal, I will be a hero!
Princess Emerald is also a wizard herself. Although her strength is not that great, she knows some magic. This is the only way she feels she is better than her father.
So she gradually set her sights on the dark guilds in the kingdom: "If I wipe out all the dark guilds, or even the leaders, I would have made a contribution, right?"
The Dark Guild is the biggest cancer in the magic world of the Kingdom of Fiore. The most powerful of them, the 'Devil's Heart', has been entrenched in the kingdom for half a century and is the best stepping stone for her to prove her ability.
All just wait until she comes of age!
Coincidentally, when Princess Emerald was eighteen years old, in X784, the 'Ballam Alliance' was established, and a seemingly unique opportunity came to her.
Unfortunately, the 'Balram Alliance' was only established for one year before it disappeared. Opportunities are such fleeting things.
First, the newly formed dark guild 'Six Demon Generals' was wiped out by the coalition forces, and then the largest dark guild 'Devil's Heart' and another most mysterious dark guild 'Gate of Hell' disappeared in the war with 'Fairy Tail', and she did not have the time to participate in these events .
I lost the best opportunity!
Princess Emerald also set her sights on Acnorolia.
Acnorolia is the world-destroying dragon recorded in the Apocalypse. If she can defeat it, the title of 'Emerald Princess' will become a legend, recorded in history, and passed down through the ages.
But Acnorolia is rarely seen, and when it finally appeared, it was defeated by Fairy Tail - and the news was announced together with the destruction of Devil's Heart and Hades' Gate - after that, its whereabouts are unknown.
I lost the opportunity again!
If these two plans were just her self-righteousness and failed before they were even launched, they could not be considered her failures and were within an acceptable range. However, the last one completely stimulated the heart of the princess.
In early X785, she represented the Fiore royal family on a diplomatic mission to a neighboring country to establish diplomatic relations, but was attacked by the neighboring country's resistance forces and nearly died. If she hadn't brought two of the "Ten Holy Wizards" (Jura and Kira) with her, she might have become an orc under the neighboring country's resistance and a hostage threatening the Kingdom of Fiore.
In Princess Emerald's opinion, this is an indelible stain on the person who will succeed to the throne in the future.
Whenever she thought of it, she felt so ashamed that she couldn't face anyone. In the middle of the night, she tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep, or she had nightmares about evil spirits.
Endless shame, inferiority, regret, anger, and unwillingness nourish the "dark flower" deep in the soul. Just like the devil's whisper, these emotions gradually erode the soul of the princess and lead her into the abyss of darkness.
Although she still looked bright, gentle, approachable, well-behaved and sensible, her heart began to become ugly, twisted, dull, conceited, proud and impatient.
She's fallen, but... not completely fallen!
Because even though an accident occurred during the mission to a neighboring country, which resulted in the mission not being completed satisfactorily, her performance throughout the entire mission was flawless!
She is just desperate to prove herself and has lost her calmness and intelligence, becoming impatient and stupid, but she has not completely turned into a villain!
At the beginning, Princess Emerald took advantage of the grace of saving her life and "canceling the crime " as the reason to recruit Jellal and his group into the royal special magic guild "Witch's Sin" and made a three-year agreement with them.
In addition to wanting to repair her own image, there was another reason for this move. After seeing their strength, she felt that the knights and guards maintained by the royal family were too weak!
If she wants to prove that she is a qualified king, a strong enough private magic team is necessary! As for whether this team belongs to the royal family or hers, it doesn't matter to Princess Emerald!
That's why he set his sights on Jellal, a young but powerful wizard who had weaknesses, wasn't a bad person by nature, and with whom he had met several times.
Things developed just as Princess Emerald had expected. During the year X785, 'Witch's Sin' did complete a lot of work for her - of course, all of it was serious work, which made her reputation highly praised among the people.
But she was not satisfied with that!
Until one coincidence, she discovered that her father, King Thomas, was preparing a shocking plan called: The Eclipse Plan!
Princess Emerald still remembers that when she was very young, she saw a huge iron gate deep in the palace.
The iron door has a unique shape and its material is unknown. The most special thing about it is that it has twelve keyholes, and the magic power in the body of anyone who approaches it will be disrupted.
She immediately found her father Thomas and asked about the purpose of the iron door, but Thomas only replied that "it is something that our ancestors instructed us to preserve, and it is called the Eclipse Gate."
Until July 7, X777, a beautiful woman with beautiful long golden hair, elegant manners and gentleness came to the door.
Princess Emerald overheard the conversation between King Thomas and the woman and learned that her name was Leila and that she was a descendant of the Heartfilia family. The other party's purpose was to open the Gate of the Eclipse in accordance with the teachings of her ancestors, and King Thomas agreed.
There was a lunar eclipse that night. Five meteors streaked across the night sky from bottom to top. Five large holes appeared in the ceiling of the palace, and a woman who looked 70% similar to Leila walked out of the door.
After that, Princess Emerald continued to eavesdrop and learned that the other party came from four hundred years ago and came to this era to defeat Acnorolia. She didn't know what happened after that.
But since then, King Thomas and Princess Emerald have learned one thing: the Eclipse Door passed down in their family has the power to travel through time and space!
Originally, Princess Emerald had forgotten about this matter long ago, but the plan she accidentally discovered in King Thomas' study reminded her of her childhood memories again.
Through King Thomas's manuscript, she learned that this was a plan to travel through time and space and modify history!
The main mission of the Eclipse Project is to go back in time and kill the most evil black magician in the world, Zeref, before he grows up!
After reading the entire plan, Emerald E. Fiore suddenly realized that this was the best chance to prove herself.
Throughout history, there may be no one who is more courageous, more thoughtful, more courageous, and more determined than my father!
The Dark Mage Zeref, a genius who became world-famous four hundred years ago and is unprecedented and unrivaled, is a peak that no one in the entire magic world can surpass.
He created thousands of black magic and demons during his life, and to this day, there are still believers of him in this world and in this kingdom.
After a long period of intelligence gathering, ancient book reading, and folk rumors by the Fiore royal family, Princess Emerald learned a lot about Jellal's deeds:
The "Gate of Hades", once the most mysterious dark guild in the Kingdom of Fiore, was the demon's lair he created;
The Devil's Heart, once the largest dark guild in the Kingdom of Fiore, was composed of his followers;
The Tower of Paradise that was once built in the Kingdom of Fiore is the resurrection magic 'R System' that he left behind;
Akunorolia, known throughout the world as the 'Black Dragon of Destruction', was his creation; Deliora, the demon that attacked a village, and Larabai, who attacked the Council meeting, were demons he created;
…
Big or small, more or less, true or false, all people, things and objects related to Jellal have been collected by the Fiore royal family.
The more Princess Jade knew about this, the more frightened and excited she became.
I was shocked because I felt that Jellal was indeed the most terrifying dark magician in history. His influence range was so wide and the degree of influence was so deep.
I am excited because the royal family of Fiore can use the Eclipse to accomplish the feat of killing Jellal!
As long as Zeref dies, the 'Gate of Hades', the 'Heart of the Devil', the Acnorolia, and the R System will all cease to exist !
If she could do this, she would be the greatest person in the world!!
Because she destroyed Zeref!!!
Perhaps by then, the people in this world will completely forget about Zeref's deeds, and the world will no longer be what it is now. There will still be the age of dragons, no Fiore Kingdom, and even no me...
But it doesn’t matter!
As long as it's to destroy Zeref, it's all worth it!
Although there are no history books to record what the Fiore royal family has done for the world, no one would know that there was such a princess who sacrificed her own existence in order to destroy the evil black wizard and bring happiness to the world, but...
Who says only those who stand in the light are heroes?
It's not a bad idea to be an unknown heroine who is not included in history!
What's more, she has proven her abilities!
Even though her magic skills are mediocre and she is powerless, she has brains, courage, and the determination to sacrifice everything to fight against darkness. It is not an exaggeration to say that she is as strong as a mortal and can rival gods!
From that day on, Princess Emerald was obsessed with the Eclipse Plan of the Fiore Royal Family and couldn't extricate herself!
