Hi everyone Azza here.

I know this chapter took a long time to get out and it is mostly my fault. There was a certain part that I literally re wrote at least twelve times because I wasn't happy with it so I apologize for the delay.

Also I'm trying out a little change in the way I craft the chapter one example being any text that looks like this is a characters inner thoughts or monologue. Would appreciate any feedback if you all would prefer me to continue doing that from now on.

Also before you get into the chapter I just want to take a moment to bring up that at the time this chapter is uploaded we will be less than a week from Chapter 545 of Fairy Tail aka the fabled final chapter.

Firstly I just want to say thank you to Hiro Mashima for crafting such a wonderful series for all of us to enjoy, a series that regardless of people's personal likes and dislikes is one that has brought us all joy throughout the years.

Although it's sad that Fairy Tail is coming to an end, another of the legends finally concluding, it makes me happy to finally get to see what the envisioned end of the franchise will be and I'm sure that the fanfiction community will only explode now that we have the full story.

Long story short thank you Hiro Mashima for years of amazing content and I look forward to seeing your next work. (Also now that the manga will be finished we might get the anime back which could add more content yay!)

With all that out of the way hopefully you all enjoy the chapter.

I do not own Fairy Tail Hiro Mashima does.

Return To Earthland

/Edolas Wastes Natsu's POV/

"This is really starting to get old," Natsu growled as the lacrima beast regenerated the limbs Natsu had blown off.

'What the hell did they do to turn this guy into this, a sentient being of pure lacrima. If I had to guess this could be the last remaining will of the kingdom's magic, though it doesn't have higher cognitive functions the King managed to get this thing to serve him.' Natsu's thoughts ran wild as the two continued to decimate everything around them, none of the enemy troops dared come near in fear of instant annihilation.

"Fire Dragon King's Graviton Fist!" Jumping into the air Natsu hit the beast on the head and sent it flying deep beneath the earth before a large explosion went off. "Gotta find a better way to deal with this thing!"

Natsu jumped away from the large hole he created and began to make some distance as razor sharp lacrima began to shoot up from the ground at a rapid rate. The beast appeared behind Natsu and sent a barrage of smaller crystals hurdling towards him as he took to the air.

'I've got no choice I'm gonna have to kill it, but what if it's the last remaining magic in the world? Do I have the right to kill it, no it's not about rights. If I don't stop this thing too many people are gonna die I'm just gonna have to deal with the consequences after, as usual.'

With his mind made up Natsu launched a counterattack and began to gather gravity in both hands.

"Gravity Dragon's Quaking Repulse!" Firing a large torrent of gravity at the beast it sent it flying backwards through several cliffs meanwhile tearing bits of it apart. "That ain't gonna even phase it for long now is the time!"

/Edolas Wastes Erza's POV/

The group had been moving quickly to reach Natsu as most of the Edolas Army was now solely focused on them.

"We cut through only the beast matters," Erza yelled as the group began to tear through what was left of the Edolas Royal Army.

"Something powerful is coming; it's growing by the second!"

"Wendy's right I think its Natsu the thing must be giving him a harder time than we thought," Elise said as several of them nodded in agreement.

"Look there he is argh what's with this heat," Gray said as all his ice began to melt.

"We're a good mile out from him yet he's generating that much heat what the hell is Salamander doing!"

Wendy who simply ignored the others continued to move forward unaffected by the scorching heat.

"Wendy what are you doing you'll be roasted alive," Erza shouted.

"No I won't I'm used to this heat Natsu used to do this all the time when we were training!"

"Don't be foolish he's going to launch an attack look!"

Wendy looked ahead and saw a large fireball growing rapidly which already had begun to eclipse the mountains.

"Everybody run," Wendy said as she dashed past them with shocking speed.

"Wendy what's going on what's Natsu doing," Erza asked as the rest started to catch up.

"While we were training Natsu always talked about having an attack that was the embodiment of fire and heat itself. Using his Gravity Dragon Slayer and Fire Dragon Slayer abilities he made this a reality which is what you see now."

"So what is it," Gray asked as Wendy only shook her head.

"A temperature so hot that it leaves nothing in its wake, nothing I've seen it his survived though he said demons or stronger mages would be affected by it. This attack is meant for monsters that either cannot be beaten through his normal means or something rather large."

"And by large do you mean that," Knightwalker said as the group turned around to see now there was not one large object but two.

"Is that the lacrima beast," Elise gasped as Knightwalker nodded.

"Capable of bolstering itself with its own crystals it can create, now that it's as big as a mountain I don't think even Faust could control it."

"That's gotta be raw magical power though he's just throwing his magic into that thing and gonna throw it right? There's no way he can pull that off more than once," Gajeel said.

"No Natsu must think the Dragon force would be pointless against something that cannot die as long as there is even the smallest piece remaining which isn't the Dragon Force's specialty."

"So what should we do go after this King or what?"

"We need to make sure Natsu is alright once this attack is over, this battle is all but over just look over there," Erza said as she pointed to the fleeing soldiers.

"She's right, without me and several other leaders the army was already at a disadvantage but now that Project G.I.L.D.A.R.T.S looks to be losing they have no other choice but to flee because they don't know about Dorma Anim."

"So it's even more top secret than that thing," Elise asked shocked.

"As I said before Dorma Anim is the Ultimate Weapon that will end it all. That beast was to be sent in if things looked grim but we still had hope, Dorma Anim will be for when there is no other choice."

"That is indeed correct Erza Knightwalker, Dorma Anim will indeed be the harbinger of the final days; however what many including King Faust fail to realise is that it won't be the end rather a new beginning for us all."

Everyone looked around to see who just spoke as many of the Fairy Tail members looked shocked.

"Mystogan how long have you been here," Erza asked confused before Knightwalker spoke up.

"So that's where you've been, all these years someone has been preventing the Anima from collecting magic from Earthland. It was you wasn't it, Prince Jellal."

Mystogan took off his hood and revealed himself before quickly joining the others. "I apologize to all of you for deceiving you, my Earthland counterpart isn't a well liked person therefore I had to remain shrouded in secrecy."

"The Edolas version of Jellal," Erza said under her breath as Jellal continued to speak.

"But you are right Knightwalker it was me sealing the gates, I knew one day I would return to stop this madness but I didn't expect to see this. Commander Gildarts has been turned into that abomination and Faust has become more deranged than ever. After consuming most of the Exceed race he still lusts for more and more magic never stopping until every last sliver is in his grasp."

"Jellal you know what will happen if he activates Dorma Anim, it'll be the end. Not just us but everyone will be killed by that old man's foolishness!"

"How I have long waited to hear those words from you Erza Knightwalker, my father is indeed far beyond saving. The best we can hope for is Natsu destroys the abomination and we kill my father before he activates Dorma Anim."

"Are you sure you could kill your own father Jellal!"

"I must Erza for all the people of Edolas I failed when I ran away, for all the members of the Exceed race killed when Faust launched that lacrima straight at their capital. On that day I knew what needed to be done but I was a coward, my time with the Earthland Fairy Tail has taught me that there are things worth fighting and dying for."

"You have grown from that dorky kid I used to push around all those years ago haven't you."

"And your lance only got sharper, and deadlier."

"Uh nice touching moment you two but we've gotta make a decision, do we wait for Salamander or move on the King!"

"As if moving on me were necessary!" A voice shouted as the entire group froze.

"No you can't be serious don't tell me he already-."

"Within moments I will be able to wipe the battlefield clean of your filth and take your magic for my own!"

"This old geezer's got a few screws loose if he thinks I'm goin down that easy," Gajeel grunted in response.

'It seems we're fighting after all I just hope we can beat this thing,' Erza thought as the ground around them began to rumble.

/Edolas Wastes Natsu's POV/

"That attack should cease its effect any second and then he'll be coming right for me, luckily this thing is almost ready!" Natsu was pouring everything he had into the attack to ensure that absolutely no trace of the beast would be left.

"Three, Two, One, NOW!" Natsu entered Dragon Force and all of his magic returned. "Phew was feeling pretty light there for a minute. Now then here comes the big guy."

In the distance Natsu could see the lacrima beast and it had grown to be bigger than a mountain and was closing the distance between the two fast.

"Well here goes nothing, Gravity x100 Full Circle!" Surrounding the large ball of fire with his gravity Natsu then positioned it in front of himself.

"Right hope this doesn't miss or I'll be back to square one, that would be really bad but also kind of fun. Anyway, Unstable Supernova Of The Fire Gravity Dragon!"

The beast barely had time to react as it caught the enormous attack but was being pushed back quite far. The beast realised too late that its arms were beginning to shatter and it was enveloped by the attack, its piercing cries could be heard for miles.

"Let's see you regenerate from this," Natsu said under his breath.

Inside the Supernova the creature was being torn apart. Aside from the searing heat the constant shift in the directions the gravity was going began to take its toll as its body was incinerated and ripped apart.

The cries finally began to die down as Natsu sighed in relief, "For a second there I thought I'd have to throw more into that." Suddenly a blue light began to stream out from the Supernova which confused Natsu.

As he began to follow it he quickly realised what must have happened. "Faust!"

/Edolas Wastes Erza's POV/

"That's Dorma Anim!" Erza looked on in horror as a large Dragon like machine rose from beneath the ground and a strange blue light began to seep into it."

"That's the magic of the world itself; we need to stop it before it absorbs all of it!" Knightwalker exclaimed as Faust began to laugh.

"How can you lot hope to stop me, the Dragons are creatures that defy the laws of nature in our world and now I possess power akin to them!"

"Well then ain't it lucky for us that two of us are Dragon Slayers then," Gajeel said with a grin.

"You can't fight that thing head on it will destroy you," Knightwalker pleaded as the members of Fairy Tail simply ignored her.

"We all trained so that situations such as this wouldn't stop us, to run away now would be as good as handing our magic over for cowardice," Erza said proudly.

"Titania's right Salamander doesn't have to carry all the slack, when push comes to shove we've gotta pull our own weight, right shrimp."

"Yeah I trained alongside Natsu I can't let him down now!"

"Wow this is pretty dramatic though I suppose mother would be disappointed if I didn't help out as well," Elise sighed.

"They're going to be slaughtered Jellal, you have to stop them" Knightwalker pleaded as Jellal simply smiled.

"You're about to see something that doesn't happen very often Erza, when this lot team up no matter the force it's the enemy who should be scared.

"He's right you know we all trained because crap like this is nothing new, usually Natsu would end up having to deal with all this type of stuff by himself but now it's our turn to step up," Gray said as he went and joined the others his ice magic finally returning since the heat died down.

"Requip: Armor Of The Scarlet Dragon! Consider this an evolution of my Brilliant Flame guys; with this I have far more variety in my attacks than before!"

"Well Titania if we're all showing off then you don't give me much choice, Dragon Force!"

"Natsu always thought you could do it if you put your mind to it Gajeel good job," Erza said.

"Yeah with this it helped me realise something, I was raised by Metallicana which is the Dragon of Metal. Entering Dragon Force allows me access over all forms of metal from bronze to titanium and so on, should've been damn obvious since I can eat just about any metal."

"Demigod's Ascension: War God! Don't think you guys are the only ones with new power I'm here too," Elise said as she emerged almost as a spitting image of Eliza.

"You're not as strong as her though right," Gray asked as she nodded.

"No immortality, no ability to influence events or summon almost infinite amounts of power but I can come close," she said with a grin.

"Well no fancy transformation for me, might wanna go stand near Erza if you can't stand the cold though, my power drops the temperature around me to -320 degrees."

"What for that makes no sense you stupid popsicle," Gajeel shouted.

"Maker magic is all in the mind, all I have to do is keep my mind open and my power becomes strong. Really the temperature is just a by product to support all the stuff I can do."

"Well Natsu said I'm not ready for the Dragon Force yet but he did teach me a bunch of offensive as well as defensive stuff so I'll support all of you!"

"Right now let's trash this tin can and go home I'm tired," Gajeel yawned.

"Yeah I haven't even been in my own bed for ages, all the quality time with Natsu I've wasted," Erza exclaimed as the group began to laugh.

"I fail to see how your situation has improved, Dorma Anim is impervious to all physical magical attacks and-."

The group at the front of Dorma Anim couldn't keep a straight face any longer and burst out laughing.

"You brats think this is funny!" Faust quickly realised what they were laughing at. In the moments that he began to speak Gajeel was already behind Dorma Anim and began eating its tail.

"Impervious to physical attacks huh," he said with a grin as he took another bite."

"What the hell are you," Faust shouted as Dorma Anim fired an energy blast at Gajeel who dodged it.

"Taking my spotlight are you Gajeel I'm shocked."

"Natsu," Erza cried as she was about to rush to his side.

"What happened to leave it off the battlefield Erza, but it's good to see you again."

"Enough with the reunions," Faust shouted as he fired a large beam from the mouth of the machine and began to sweep across the area.

"Alright guys give em hell," Natsu shouted as they began to assault Dorma Anim.

"Gajeel, Gray get a hold of its back legs! Elise you're with me on the front! Wendy we'll need a boost in speed!"

Erza's orders were immediately understood as they went to work. Natsu re entered Dragon Force and stood his ground against the brunt of Dorma Anim's attacks.

"How many blasts can you take boy, once I'm done with you I'll crush your little friends!" Firing another blast twice as large as the first directly at Natsu Faust began to laugh manically.

"It's one thing to talk big but another thing to back it up! Fire Dragon King's Graviton Roar!"

The two attacks quickly clashed and at the impact of the blast the two attacks began to expand until it set of a large explosion sending smoke and debris flying everywhere. Natsu quickly emerged from the smoke and blocked a strike from one of the front legs before Elise pinned it down.

"Don't worry about the body Natsu go for the head," Elise shouted as she began to slightly bend the leg she was holding trying to tear it off as the mechanical Dragon tried to shake her off.

"Ice Make Ice Age!" Gray had frozen one of the hind legs into place as Gajeel began to tear away at the other one.

"Titanium Dragon's Razor Maw!" Gajeel's teeth began to change and sure enough he bit a large chunk out of the leg.

"Scarlet Talon!" Erza covered her right hand with an impressive amount of fire turning it into the shape of a talon before taking a swing at the leg of Dorma Anim which melted right through.

"Impossible there's no way you are all able to penetrate the defences of Dorma Anim, it is a weapon akin to the Gods themselves!"

Natsu who jumped onto the head of Dorma Anim looked right at Faust through the eye of the mechanical Dragon with a grin.

"Hate to break it to ya pal but I've met the Gods and this piece of junk doesn't even come remotely close, all right you guys get back!"

Everyone backed off as Natsu surrounded himself with a large purple Magic Circle. Summoning all his power he motioned both of his hands to grab Dorma Anim which was still pinned.

"Gravity x125 Vertical!" Slowly Dorma Anim began to rise into the air as the others began to bombard it with ranged attacks until it was high enough that Natsu shifted the gravity in reverse. "Have a nice trip Faust!"

Dorma Anim made impact with the ground and was rendered immobile. "Surrender Faust you have lost," Erza said as she nodded her head in approval of the groups' handiwork.

"Beaten by mere children, the weapon of absolute ruin," Faust said under his breath as he managed to free himself from the wreck.

"Hey not a bad job guys for our first rumble after training but we could've done better," Natsu said as the others laughed.

"Yeah that was a bit overkill huh we could've just let Gajeel eat the damn thing he always seems so hungry," Elise teased as Natsu hit her over the head with his iron club.

"What's that meant to mean I eat plenty your just jealous cus you can't eat anywhere you want like I can!"

"That's enough all of you we all did great but Natsu is right we could use improvement on our teamwork. Once we get back to Earthland we'll have a day to train together," Erza said as everybody including Natsu groaned.

"I don't wanna train anymore I did enough of that I wanna go on some jobs!"

"Salamander's right I'm not going to your dumb camp either."

Erza just glared at the two while the others laughed as Knightalker and Mystogan watched from a distance.

"See I told you they were good."

"We never stood a chance, Natsu alone has more power than Dorma Anim itself after fighting Project G.I.L.D.A.R.T.S," Knightwalker said shocked and still struggling to process what she had just seen.

"Yes Natsu is indeed powerful but only uses his power for his friends and loved ones, never would he harm an innocent with his power or he would forfeit it on the spot. That is the way all Fairy Tail Wizards are Erza."

"I see Earthland must be glad to have someone like him around."

"To be honest Natsu hasn't been around all that much yet in the short time he is around he makes all the difference." Mystogan gave Knightwalker a small smile before walking over to Faust.

"Come to gloat boy," Faust spat as Mystogan looked at the man in disappointment.

"No father I am not however I am here to ask you to stand down as King, after all the crimes you have committed to our world you no longer have the right to rule."

Faust looked up at Mystogan before sighing, "it's not like I have much of a choice anyway although let me tell you that what I did to the Exceeds I did for the good of all humankind."

"No father what you did was genocide plain and simple, the Exceeds never once showed signs of hostility towards us only wishing that our two races did not fight yet you killed them all. I cannot believe that after what you did you had Panther Lily work for you, the same man who ordered the deaths of his entire species."

"As if the cat had anywhere else to go Jellal he should have been grateful I gave him the opportunity to live at all."

"And that father is exactly why you are unfit to rule, your reign comes to an end this day."

"And what you'll take up the throne, a boy who ran from home many years past only to return bringing death and destruction in his wake? The people would never accept you or your foolish ideas of living without magic."

"They won't have a choice father as we speak Panther Lily is activating Anima for the final time, maximum reversion."

"What that will force all magic from our world!"

"As it should be, we have done nothing but abuse the gift our world had given us and harvest it until there was almost none left. Even when pushed that far we still harvested all the magic we could find in order to build Anima to steal it from elsewhere."

"You would doom us all over our use of magic are you insane!"

"No father I was never insane rather I have seen a world where the magic flows freely to the people rather than being forcibly taken, it is a world where magic was used within reason and not taken and refined into tools of war or comfort. After much research I came to the conclusion that had we not industrialized magic our world could have been much the same."

Everything began to shake as bright yellow lights began to slowly fly up into the air.

"It has begun," Mystogan said as he turned to face the others. "I have instructed an old friend to transfer all magic to Earthland which will in turn reverse the process that turned the guild into a lacrima."

"So we can finally go home, thank the gods," Elise sighed.

"You aren't coming though are you Mystogan," Natsu said as the man nodded.

"I do not possess enough magic within myself to be taken back to Earthland like you all do but there is someone who does that I want you all to take care of. His name is Panther Lily and he's an Exceed just like the cats that both yourself and Wendy have."

"So you really are leaving the guild then, if that's the case then I only have one thing to say to you," Natsu said as he walked up to him. "Well more like three but you get the idea."

"Ah of course," Mystogan said as Natsu nodded.

"Firstly you must never reveal any sensitive information you may possess about Fairy Tail to anyone no matter who they may be for the rest of your life. You must never use former contacts met through the guild for your own personal gain. And finally and most importantly though our lives may diverge from this day you must always continue to live your life with all your might, never considering your own life as insignificant, and you must never forget about your friends who still care for you dearly."

"What was that Natsu just said Erza that was beautiful," Elise said as she wiped away a tear.

"Well to put it simply it's our way of seeing our friends off and letting them know we will always keep them in our hearts, and also apply certain conditions to someone's departure."

"In other words a Fairies farewell," Mystogan said as he shook Natsu's hand. "Thank you for all your help Natsu and the rest of you as well."

As they began to float into the air Faust looked up at Natsu and began to speak. "Tell me boy being in a guild, do you enjoy it?"

Natsu's eyes widened in surprise as he answered, "best years of my life."

"Ah I see," Faust muttered as the group began to be sucked into a portal in the sky.

As Natsu looked out upon the vast wasteland he could see several members of the Edolas Fairy Tail waving before being blinded by a bright light.

/Earthland Magnolia Outskirts/

The group landed on top of each other with Natsu being at the bottom.

"You guys are real bastards you know that I'm tired and everything," Natsu sighed as they all managed to get off of him.

"The amount of magic power you used was insane Natsu of course your tired," Erza said as she put his head on her lap.

"Nah it wasn't because of that instead blame Wendy for keeping me up for days straight because she wanted training."

"You said you would help," Wendy pouted as the group began to laugh before a bright flash engulfed an area nearby which was revealed to be the town being placed back where it belonged.

"Nice I need a drink after all that crap," Gajeel said as he began to make his way down towards Magnolia.

"Erza could you fill in gramps about all this I'm tired and I'm probably just gonna go home and pass out."

"Do you need any help getting back," Erza asked as Natsu shook his head before quickly disappearing.

"He must be really tired to be sprinting for a bed," Erza sighed as she got up. "You want to come with me back to the guild Wendy?"

"Ok Erza," Wendy said cheerfully as the two made their way down the hill towards the city.

At the reappearance of Magnolia a lone figure could be seen observing the group with a mischievous smile on her face.

"So it seems you survive yet another cursed fate that so many others were unfortunate enough to bear, it seems we will need to readjust our plans once more."

"Well now isn't this rather intriguing, a lone mage out here in the woods observing silently as events unfold, tell me dear who are you working for?"

The mage quickly turned around to be met with Eliza who was casually sitting up in a nearby tree.

"Don't try to run I doubt you'd even make ten metres before I catch you," Eliza said with a small smile.

"How did you know I was here no one has ever caught me before!"

"Now we know that's not entirely true I believe Natsu caught you back on a certain island if I'm not mistaken?"

"How do you know about that," the mage asked confused as Eliza stifled a laugh.

"How I know is pointless all I want from you is who you really work for and if you don't give it to me you will die, simple as that."

"You really think you could stand against me I have the power of time on my side you wouldn't even have the chance to attack!"

"You seem fairly confident in your abilities but I'm afraid your powers won't be of use on me, deities are immune to such trivial things after all."

"Deity, do you mean to tell me that your some type of God?"

"Precisely dear and this God isn't too happy at the way you are sneaking around where her precious daughter and her friends currently reside. Now then introductions are in order I would think, Eliza Goddess of War."

"U-Ultear one of the Seven Kin of Purgatory," she replied as Eliza began to ponder.

"Hm Seven Kin where have I heard that before, ah now I remember Grimoire Heart one of the three biggest guilds in that Bharam Alliance nonsense. Now tell me Ultear why are you here, what is your objective?"

"I cannot tell you that I'm under strict orders not to-."

Before Ultear had finished Eliza already had two Ebony blades pressed to her neck as she leant in and began to whisper into her ear.

"Now let's try this again, why are you here and what's your objective?"

'Darn I don't have a choice now she'll kill me without a second thought, what if Master Hades finds out I let some information slip what would he do?'

"Relax dear I won't let this information go anywhere that it doesn't need to I just need it now could you please hurry I'm taking a break from doing my job for this."

"O-of course, my goal was to watch the activities of Fairy Tail and report them to our Guild Master Hades. The whole purpose for this is for our upcoming raid on Tenrou Island in order to retrieve the final key to revive Lord Zeref."

The mention of Zeref caused Eliza to raise her eyebrow slightly, "the Black Wizard Zeref now that's interesting. Many Dark Guilds have claimed to have the method what makes yours any better?"

"Years of research have proven that our method is the true way to revive our Lord, many different methods were made to mislead the unfaithful."

Eliza sighed as she released Ultear, "another one of you misguided fools. Honestly you humans really are easily mislead what proof do you even have that Zeref did leave a method to revive him, for all you know this could be just some random mages doing who just wanted a good laugh in the afterlife."

"Then tell me the truth, if you are a God then tell me where Zeref is?"

"That I cannot do and no it's not because I can't but rather it's not my place to interfere."

Ultear looked at Eliza with a puzzled look. "So can I leave?"

"Oh of course but you probably shouldn't return because I'm not the only one who caught on to your being here," Eliza said as Ultear disappeared in a flash.

"Grimoire Heart huh, why's everything always got to evolve Dark Guilds?"

"Well you look rather dashing Natsu, weren't you running on home because you were tired?"

"You know me if I smell trouble I'll be there real fast," Natsu replied as he came out from the nearby tree line. "Aren't you meant to be working?"

"I'm having a small break besides being able to explore the mortal realms is too much fun to pass up."

"Of course why am I not surprised, so what do you make of what she said?"

"What I make of it is of no consequence but I will say this Natsu, despite what she mentioned about a raid on Tenrou you shouldn't tell anyone not even the Master."

"Why's that," Natsu asked with a puzzled look.

"Because neither of us were actually meant to be here, events played out against what was predetermined. It does happen quite often but messing with what was meant to be isn't for the best."

"So it's like going against fate then, I'm just supposed to sit around and wait for something to happen?"

"Precisely though consider this you will have time to prepare for what is coming besides you all should be strong enough to thrash whatever comes your way."

"Heh good point, I'm guessing you saw our little fight in Edolas then?"

"Yes I quite admire my own handiwork," Eliza said with a sly grin as she opened a small portal.

"Wait you set that whole battle up are you kidding me," Natsu shouted as Eliza laughed.

"Of course Natsu I was doing my job after all, besides that battle was a predetermined one I just made sure that events played out as they were foreseen."

"Ah another God thing then, so what'd you think of how we all went then?"

"What is there to comment on none of the others were forced to their limits and as for you I cannot say, the lacrima beast was more of a trick opponent rather than one with actual skill so it was obvious that you would have overwhelmed it."

"Well to be honest that's what I was hoping for when we left so that's reassuring. Well I'm gonna head home for real this time have fun with planning wars and stuff."

"Don't worry Natsu I'll relish every minute, don't go telling anyone what you've learnt here."

"Fine but we'll talk about this more later," Natsu sighed as he began to walk back to Magnolia again.

"Grimoire Heart will be a challenge for the guild Natsu and even you might find yourself in a bit of trouble ….. well maybe who knows. Either way it will be a good experience for all of you," Eliza said to herself as she returned to Terminus.

Hopefully you all enjoyed the chapter and I'll see you in the next one.
