"What? How is this possible…" August stared wide-eyed at the document in his hand, his face filled with disbelief. His hand loosened, and the document scattered across the floor. He couldn't believe what he was seeing, yet he had to admit the authenticity of the document, signed by the Fiore Kingdom's royalty and co-signed by three Ten Wizard Saints.
The authenticity of this document was beyond doubt; it represented the highest authority of the entire Fiore Kingdom.
"We can't just sit here and wait, we must act immediately!" August was burning with anxiety, knowing that if they didn't respond quickly, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Thus, he proposed a shocking suggestion: "We can activate Face and deploy it to the Alvarez Empire; that way, their magic will completely disappear!"
Hearing August's proposal, Everyone present gasped.
Face was the Fiore Kingdom's most powerful secret weapon; if it were truly activated, the consequences would be unimaginable.
But August believed that the current situation had reached a critical point, and only by using this trump card could they salvage the crisis.
However, the Council Chairman did not immediately agree with August's suggestion.
He slowly shook his head, expressing his opposition:
"Now is not the time to use Face; it is our last resort. Don't forget, besides the Alvarez Empire, other continental powers are also eyeing us. If we use Face lightly, it might trigger a greater crisis."
Upon hearing this, August, though anxious, understood that the Council Chairman had a point.
After all, once Face was used, it would undoubtedly attract worldwide attention and vigilance, and at that time, the Fiore Kingdom would likely become the target of all.
"Quickly, invite the Four Heavenly Kings to discuss, and at the same time, mobilize all armed forces to the border front!" The Council Chairman decisively gave the order. He deeply understood the seriousness of this war and had to go all out to deal with it. "
Additionally, notify all Magic Guilds to prepare for battle.
One country attacking another is not easy; many factors need to be considered. We still have time to respond."
With the Council Chairman's command, Everyone sprang into action.
A thrilling war was about to begin, and the Council had to make swift decisions in this tense atmosphere to protect their country and people.
"As for Tartaros, we'll leave them to Fairy Tail!" After the Council Chairman settled this, he immediately turned and issued all orders. Everyone who received the orders immediately took action.
...
On the other side, Tartaros
The Nine Demon Gates were also gathering, preparing to hold a meeting.
"Long time no see, Silver!" Kyoka said as she walked over with a group of people.
"Long time no see, Kyoka, I didn't expect you to become so sexy now!" Silver leaned against a statue, watching with interest as Kyoka, dressed in her demon attire, walked out from a nearby passage.
The two greeted each other like old friends and walked together towards the final conference room.
"You actually appeared in human form. I heard you were forced to retreat by a Ten Wizard Saints?" Kyoka said unhurriedly, teasing him as if chatting about daily life.
"That old man is extraordinary. To avoid revealing more information, I could only retreat~" Silver said, his brows slightly furrowed as he thought of the incident.
"You're here~ There's something very important~ Just got news, Jackal's mission failed, what a pity!" Seilah said regretfully upon seeing the two.
Hearing this, both Silver and Kyoka's expressions changed. They both knew Jackal's strength, and even he had failed.
"What happened?" Silver asked, frowning.
"The plan began. Jackal was sent to kill all current Council members, but in the end, he self-destructed and died~" Seilah said, frowning as she spoke.
"Damn it, that Jackal, he really tarnishes our demon character!" Traffsar directly complained impolitely from the side.
"What character do demons have? This mission should have been given to me. I can't wait to kill all humans~" Ezel said grimly, waving his four arms wildly in the air and shouting.
His heart was very indignant.
"Stories need a prologue, but this prologue is too boring~" Seilah complained even more.
"Pray, what did Jackal encounter? We'll only know when he wakes up~" Keith said in a heavy tone, striking the ground forcefully with his staff.
"Everything is for our Lord, Zeref! This plan must succeed. It seems we all have to move out. It's time to let humans see the horror of hell~" Kyoka listened to Everyone's statements, then narrowed her eyes and said with a firm tone.
"Not good~ Detecting many magical reactions around us!" A Whitebeard obese old man suddenly burst in, shouting in alarm and fear.
"What! Impossible, no one would know our location here!" Kyoka also denied in surprise upon hearing this, but her gaze sharpened as she looked at the old man.
"Let's get ready for battle! I think I've already sensed a familiar magic!" Silver, however, looked directly in one direction, flung his cloak, and turned to walk out the door. His steps were steady and powerful, as if he was already prepared to face any danger.
Boom~ A square-shaped Demon Island in the sky was attacked, and the entire structure shook.
The entire room vibrated violently, and dust fell from the walls. Kyoka gritted her teeth, filled with anger and unwillingness.
"Damn it~" Kyoka gritted her teeth. Her eyes flashed with fury, her fists clenched tightly, and her figure flickered, instantly reaching the old man's side. Her demon claw forcefully plunged into the old man's chest.
"Since the plan was forced to fail, then you, the former Council Chairman, have no reason to exist!" Kyoka's eyes were filled with the contempt of a superior. A terrifying aura emanated from her, as if the entire world was under her control.
"You…" The old man's face was full of shock and despair. He widened his eyes, unable to believe what he heard.
He had thought he had everything under control, but now he found himself completely abandoned.
His heart was filled with resentment and anger. He had once betrayed humanity, wanting to gain the whole world, but in the end, he met such a fate.
"It should have started a long time ago~" another demon said, his voice cold and merciless.
He was not surprised by the old man's fate.
"It seems the story is full of twists and turns!" Seilah echoed, with a hint of sarcasm in her tone.
Several demons directly expressed their opinions, completely ignoring the obese old man on the ground.
They didn't even spare him a glance, stepping over his body as they walked outside. Their steps were firm and confident, as if they didn't care about the attacking humans at all, only yearning for the entire world to tremble beneath their feet.
...
Outer space
"Ah~ Take this!" a Magician shouted, his magic power erupting as he unleashed a powerful attack.
"Damn demons~ Die~" another Magician followed closely, also launching a fierce attack.
Bang~ Bang~ Bang~ The battle outside was extremely fierce. The Fairy Tail Guild sent all their Magicians, attacking Tartaros with all their might.
Fortunately, they had all previously attended the training courses opened by Zorn, and Everyone's combat power had significantly improved, allowing them to handle these demon soldiers with ease.
"They just keep coming, endlessly~ Freeze them all!"
Gray roared, pressing his hands to the ground as a blue magic circle rapidly unfolded.
"Ice-Make: Ice Geyser!" Countless sharp ice spikes erupted like an underground spring, instantly freezing all the charging demon soldiers into ice sculptures.
"And me~ Sky Dragons Roar~" Wendy flew into the air with Carla's assistance. She took a deep breath, then exhaled forcefully. A powerful tornado swept down from the sky, directly swirling a large number of demon soldiers into the air.
"You won't get close to my Princess! Moo~" Taurus Taros swung his large axe, hitting away Everyone who tried to approach Lucy with both hands.
His strong body and unparalleled strength made it impossible for enemies to resist, and they were all sent flying.
"Princess, wasn't my performance just now pretty good?" After fighting, Taros immediately approached Lucy again, wiggling ingratiatingly, his face filled with a loving smile, seemingly waiting for Lucy's praise.
"You did great, Taros!" Lucy said, whipping her whip to send the enemies in front of her flying, while turning her head to praise Taros.
"We must find a way to get inside!" Erza quickly cleared the surrounding miscellaneous soldiers while thinking of a way to enter the castle.
"Watch me!" Kana shouted, punching away a demon soldier, then drew a card from her waist, a confident smile on her face, but her hand movements were not slow at all; she directly activated the card.
