The spectators of the Grand Magic Games were stunned after what just happened. Ben defeated 6 teams comprised of 30 people by himself. So he gained 30 points by defeating 6 team captains and 24 points from defeating 24 team members, giving Fairy Tail B an additional 54 points.

It left them speechless because Fairy Tail B already got 78 points before. They almost scored perfect points if not for Pandemonium where Erza got 1st place after defeating all the monsters by herself. Those 78 points have gone up to 132 points.

Ben now stood alone amidst the defeated mages in a destroyed area. He grinned while looking at a lacrima vision that hovered above the battleground. It was his message to Fiore's royal family that no one can stop him. It's a threat to them.

The crowd cheered in excitement after witnessing an epic battle. They all knew the defeated mages weren't weak, but Ben is on a whole other level. Even those who support other guilds can't help but get amazed and excited.

Shortly afterward, the audience saw the other members of Fairy Tail B return. They carried their defeated guild mates back with them. Fairy Tail A had been defeated by the members of Fairy Tail B.

The spectators were stunned by this because it meant Fairy Tail B wiped out all their opponents. They are also surprised by how fast the team won this round. Well, they forgot there were other battles going on because they were focused on Ben's battle.

Right now, Mira carried Erza on her back, Freed is carrying Gray on his shoulder, Cana was carrying a card that held a trapped Lucy in it and Laxus dragged Natsu and Gajeel across the ground by their feet. They've won their battles and gained 9 more points for their team, so now they have 141 points in total.

"Damn monster, you really defeated them all by yourself." Laxus said after seeing the defeated mages.

"If I couldn't do this, we're all doomed." Ben replied.

They understood what he meant because Ben told them about the kingdom's intent. That was also the reason they followed Ben's plan. For them, their guild is more important than the kingdom.

The commentator then announced the end of the tournament with Fairy Tail B's victory. Then the capital celebrated it and fireworks go off. A paramedic entered the battlefield to treat the people that were injured.

The capital had a big celebration for the result of this year's Grand Magic Games. Fairy Tail took 1st and 2nd place proudly with both of their teams. Their B Team even got 1st place with massive gaps between them and their competitors.

Fairy Tail B: 141 points

Fairy Tail A: 63 points

Blue Pegasus: 38 points

Mermaid Heel: 37 points

Sabertooth: 30 points

Lamia Scale: 28 points

Scarmiglione: 14 points

Quatro Cerberus: 10 points

The ironic thing was that despite mocking them before the tournament, Sabertooth found themselves unable to get on the podium. No one felt bad for them, although Ben did feel bad for Lamia Scale. They had the misfortune to face Fairy Tail a few times and lost, but this was a competition, so victory and defeat are common.

Lamia Scale also accepted the result nicely and no one complained. Granny Ooba was pissed when Ben teased her about the result at the celebration. She tried to spin Ben's body with her magic, but she failed because it felt like Ben was very heavy and it made Ben tease her again before he ran away from the angry grandma.

Ben went to the rooftop and gazed out at the city while seemingly thinking about something. Jura came there shortly after that and stood next to the sitting Ben. He congratulated Ben for Fairy Tail's victory and said that he will still chase after Ben to stay on the same level.

Ben smirked and said, "I won't forbid you from doing that, but I also won't stay like this forever. You can get stronger, but I'll also get stronger. I'm a man who's never satisfied with his achievements, you know?"

Jura also smirked and said, "Of course you aren't. You aren't the only one I know with such strong ambitions. And you actually work very hard to reach those ambitions. But I think there's someone else with those ambitions, and he's very strong."

"Who is it?" Ben asked.

"The one who's said to be the strongest in Fiore, God Serena." Jura answered.

"The strongest? Well, he's surely the strongest for now." Ben questioned with a smirk.

"What are you implying?" Jura asked with a raised eyebrow.

"That title will be invalid soon as I will take it from him. That pussy never accepts my challenges because they're not worth his time and he was always busy. Hah, as if that unemployed bastard has something other to do than looking at the mirror like a narcissist." Ben said with a pissed off tone.

Jura sweat dropped and said, "We-well, I'm sure you will get a chance to fight him in the future."

"Yeah, I'll make sure it happens. Maybe I will attack the other 3 men who also call themselves gods and then attack God Serena's place. He he, it's a good plan." Ben said with a sinister smile.

Jura sweat dropped again, but instead of stopping Ben from thinking of doing that, he was more worried about the Gods of Ishgar. He knew what a maniac Ben is and how he will do anything to get what he wants. So Jura just sighed and accompanied Ben in drinking their booze.

Then after the celebratory party ended, Ben went to one of his guild's hotel rooms. It's a room next to his family's room. Inside the room were some of his guild mates. All the S-Class mages, Dragon Slayers, Makarov, Mira, Natsu and Lucy were there.

However, there were 2 Lucy's in the room. That's right, 2 Lucy's. The other Lucy wasn't from Edolas though. It's Lucy from the future. She met Ben yesterday and after confirming that it was really Lucy, Ben brought her here.

The future Lucy told them that she came here through the Eclipse Gate. That gate is actually a tool to travel through time, not a colossal weapon like the Princess thought. Princess Hisui thought that it's a weapon with incredible power that can save Fiore during a crisis, but it's not.

That princess received information that it's a great weapon from someone else who also came from the future. That meant there was another time traveler besides Lucy. The princess had no knowledge of the person's identity, so Ben asked Crime Sorciere to find out who it was.

They haven't gotten any results yet as it seemed the person was really good at hiding. Fortunately they have a clue. It's the magic power that the person emitted. That person and future Lucy emit magic power that was similar to Zeref's due to using the Eclipse Gate.

Ben assumed that the Eclipse Gate was constructed by Zeref in the past. That's why his magic power remains there and those who use will have his magic power stuck on their body. Ben removed Zeref's magic power from Lucy's body, so Jellal and co won't mistake her as their target.

Ben's method of removing it was rather unusual and usual at the same time. He sucked up the magic power with a Dragon Slayer's ability to consume their element. The only requirement was that he had to do it under sunlight.

Natsu wanted to help when Ben did that, but Ben prohibited him from doing so. Zeref's magic power was very dark and can kill someone. Ben didn't want to take that risk, so he did it himself because he was the strongest person in the guild and had the most vitality.

Also, he faced Zeref before and analyzed that guy's magic. He has a deeper understanding of Zeref's magic power and can handle it. Ben was confident he can face Zeref without dying at the hands of Ankhsheram's Curse now.

"Alright, older Lucy, can you tell us what will happen soon? I'm sure you have a good reason for using the Eclipse Gate to return to this time period. You weren't well yesterday, that's why I didn't ask too many questions. But now you need to explain so we can all prepare for it. You must've approached me because you thought that I can help you, right?" Ben asked after taking a seat in a chair.

Future Lucy was silent for a moment as everyone looked at her. She took a deep breath before she started to speak. "10,000 dragons will wreak havoc in the future and the world will be put in danger."
