Hello everyone! How's everyone doing so far and welcome back to another chapter of the Remake/Remastered version of the Golden Fairy!
Not gonna lie, it feels somewhat refreshing that my motivation for writing came back after four years of just working and studying without having a hobby..
Sometimes writing something that you like can be good way to de-stressed yourself so I highly recommend it.
Alright this chapter should be able to wrap up Galuna Island in it's entirety so expect a lengthy chapter! Without further due let's get this chapter stared!
Fairy Tail Opening 2
Galuna Island Arc
Chapter 9: Deliora and Ur
Ancient Ruins Secret Hideout... Few hours after Midnight.. Galuna Island.. Kingdom of Fiore.. July 24th X784..
"That dammed Son Goku!" said Lyon to himself as he arrives at the hiding room of the Ancient Ruins, which is located near where Deliora is. The white-haired mage sits down to the closest wall slowly since the three blows he received from the Saiyan had left him badly injured. He could still remember how easily he was overwhelmed by him, not even relying on any type of Magic instead he just used his abilities as a Martial Artist..
He definitely was not a mere mage, Goku's overwhelming presence somehow could rival the Wizard Saint that belongs in his old guild and just thinking that thought made him grit his teeth in frustration..
"No matter how strong you are Son Goku, I swear by the name of my master Ur I will eliminate you!" stated the Ice mage with determination on his expression which then morphs into a dark smile.. "And that includes you as well Gray, next time we meet I'll definitely eliminate you!"
"It seems that someone's plan is not going accordingly.." stated a mysterious voice which caught Lyon's attention, he turns to the direction where the voice comes from and sees a short 'man' who has a red mask that covered most of his face, revealing only his lips. Lyon of course knew who this individual is..
"Ah it's you.. What do you want?" asked Lyon neutrally as he stares at the mysterious individual
"Just checking on you, to see how the plan it's developing.." responded the individual calmly towards Lyon "And from what I can see it's not looking good, was Ur's other disciple strong enough to best you and leave you like this?"
"No, I defeated him with no problems." stated the white-haired mage firmly, not leaving any room for argument about him defeating Gray "However, there was another mage who stopped me from killing him. Someone powerful enough that he didn't need to use any Magic and relied only on his hand-to-hand combat ability.."
"And out of curiosity, who was the individual who defeated you?" asked the 'man' with great intrigue as he already connected the dots in who it was..
"His name is Son Goku, an S-class wizard from Fairy Tail, according to him he's a Wizard Saint candidate and apparently Gray's second teacher..." the white-haired man answered towards the masked man, who's eyes went slightly wide at the fact that 'his' intuition was right..
"So Son-kun is on this island huh? It seems things are going to get interesting from now on.." thought the 'man' with a sinister smile as he longed to meet the Saiyan once again after not seeing him after a few weeks..
Scene change... Public inn.. Afternoon Time..
In one of the rooms from the Public inn, we could see Gray began to stir up from his bed as he opens his eyes slowly thanks to the sunlight pointing at his face..
"W-Where am I..?" asked the Ice mage to himself as he tries to get up from his bed, but then feels different sharp pains going to different part of his body after doing that movement, thus making him flinch in pain "Why is my body feeling like this..? Where's Lyon? And where's everyone else..?"
"Hey! It seems that your finally awake..!" exclaimed a certain Saiyan God who was coming from the entrance of the room with a smile on his face "You slept the whole day that it's already late afternoon!"
"G-Goku..?" asked Gray with confusion as he rubs his eyes to see him more clearly "Where am I? Why am I wearing so many bandages around my body? And what happened in my battle against Lyon?"
"Hey slow down Gray, I'll try to answer some of your questions.." said Goku as he sits down in a chair that was next to Gray's bed "Right now we are back in the hotel where we are staying, after your battle against Lyon you were pretty badly injured that we had to wrap you up in bandages. I could have given you a Senzu bean but you weren't in the condition to eat at the moment, so I'll give it to you now..!"
"Thanks Goku.." stated the Ice mage softly as he grabs the Senzu bean that the Saiyan gives him and begins to eat it. After a couple of seconds of eating it, Gray could feel all his injuries heal along with his energies coming back completely. Without wasting time he gets up from his bed and begins to take off the dirty bandages from his body "I have to admit it, the Senzu beans are really special.."
"That's the power of the Senzu bean for you..!" commented Goku with a smile as he then notice Gray's body still kept some the scars he gain from Lyon's attack "Although, they don't 100% healed your scars as from you can see.."
"Right..." responded Gray somberly as then bows towards Goku who was genuinely surprised by the gesture "Goku, I wanted to say that I'm sorry I couldn't live up to your expectations as your student, I hope you could forgive me for such disgrace of abilities I displayed yesterday.."
"Gray look at me.." ordered the Saiyan God to the Ice mage who began to look at his neutral expression, which then turned into a soft smile "You don't need to say sorry just because you lost a fight in which you were nerfed in multiple ways, an example being wearing the wristbands along with emotional turmoil after seeing someone you knew as an enemy. Sometimes those type of situation will intervene in your performance as a fighter, trust me I've been through those situations before.."
"Besides these type of defeats will help you to correct your mistakes and get you stronger than ever! I can even guarantee you that this time you will be able to defeat Lyon with no problems, you just got to believe in yourself!" exclaimed Goku with his typical smile towards Gray who just stayed stunned at hearing Goku's small speech, he couldn't help but to smile at hearing those encouraging words from his master..
Goku really was a unique person that cheers you up in a unique way..
"Thanks Goku, I really needed those words." said Gray as he stood up from his bowing position and looks straight at the Saiyan with a smile "I'm glad that you're my master.."
"That's the spirit Gray! I'm glad that I was able to make you feel better" stated Goku happily as he puts his right arm around Gray's shoulder "Now, let's go to the living room! Everyone is waiting for us so we can talk about our next move!"
Without wasting time, both Goku and Gray began to make their way to the living room where the rest of Team Natsu are located at the moment. When they arrived to the room they could see Lucy chatting with her Celestial Spirit Plue, the Dragon Slayer having his own conversation with Happy talking about fist and other types of food, and lastly Erza drinking her tea in peace as she was reading the recent Weekly Sorcerer magazine...
"Hey everyone I'm back!" exclaimed the Saiyan out-loud as he got the attention of every mage in the room
"Good afternoon Goku-kun! Where were y-" before the Celestial Mage could finish her sentence she notice a certain Ice wizard standing next to Goku "Gray?! You're finally awake! How are you feeling?"
"I'm feeling great, it was thanks to Goku's Senzu beans that I was able to recover this quickly.." responded Gray neutrally as he cracks his neck to get the stiffness away "Although it'll leave some scars behind but I don't mind them.."
"It's good that you finally recovered from your ass beating, Ice princess!" exclaimed Natsu with a savage grin on his face as he made his way towards where Gray was standing, this of course made the Ice mage annoyed to no end
"Do you really wanna start right here and now Flame brains?!" said Gray annoyed with a comical vein appearing on his forehead
"Of course I want to stripper! I've been itching to release some stress after waiting for your ass to wake up!" responded the Dragon Slayer still keeping his savage grin as both collided their heads in a comical way. This of course made Goku laugh at their usual antics and Lucy sighed at seeing both mages bicker once again..
However, their bickering was interrupted by Erza who grabbed both of their heads and made them collide into each other comically..
"Seriously Natsu? Instigating for a fight when he just woke up from an injury, have some shame.." said Erza with a disappointing sigh as she then moves her gaze towards Gray "Gray don't think your off the hook, just because you're 100% healed doesn't mean you have to fight Natsu when he challenges you. Did I make myself clear boys?"
"Aye..." replied both Natsu and Gray at the same time as they rubbed their heads from the pain..
"Good!" exclaimed the red-haired mage with a satisfied smile as she then moves her gaze towards the Saiyan God "Goku-kun we need a plan to find Lyon and find the reason why he is so keen on awakening a powerful Demon like Deliora. I know you told me he's doing it to surpass his former master, but I can't help but to feel that he's hiding something else from everyone.. Maybe there's a connection between Deliora and the Curse that has been placed in Galuna Island.."
"There's still a lot of lose ends that we need to resolve, but our primordial goal should be eliminating Deliora before he awakens and destroys the entire island.." responded the Saiyan God with a serious expression. Goku expected the Ice mage to respond back about him destroying Deliora completely since according to him it was an impossible feat to do.. But to his surprised he just kept listening to the conversation..
"So what do you have in mind Goku-kun?" asked the blonde-haired girl as she held her Plue closed to her chest
"Hmm.." Goku hummed as he got into a thinking position for a couple of seconds until an idea came up to him "I got it! Although we don't know what Lyon could be up to, we can use my Instant Transmission to travel to where he is and convince him not to awake Deliora! However, we need to keep an eye on the village. We don't know if Lyon's group are going to counter-attack despite being taken into custody, they could escape easily for all we know.."
"Me and Lucy are going to take the responsibility in taking care of the village from any attacks. Meanwhile the rest of you guys need to find Lyon and stop his plans from being accomplished, the awakening of Deliora needs to be stopped at all cost!" responded Erza with determination which made everyone nod in agreement to her statement..
"Alright then, I'll take Gray and Natsu as part of the assault squad just in case Lyon brings more of his people.." responded Goku neutrally as he then stares at both of his students "I hope you guys are ready to defeat them! specially you Gray like I said earlier you have the abilities and power to defeat Lyon.."
"Don't worry Goku, this time I'm not planning to lose! I'll show that bastard the true power of what Fairy Tail is capable off!" exclaimed Gray with burning determination in his gaze
"What he said! I'm all fired up at the fact that were going to burn them to crisp!" added Natsu to the conversation as he cracks his knuckles with a grin "Happy, I want you to stay with Erza and Lucy on this one buddy. Don't want you to get hurt when the three of us destroy the entire temple."
"Aye sir!" responded Happy in his typical tone of voice..
"That's the spirit guys! anyways..!" said Goku as he moves his gaze towards Erza and Lucy "If anything goes south, I'll immediately teleport to where you guys are and give you support in whatever I can!"
"Goku-kun.." murmured Lucy in a low voice as she couldn't help but to feel her heart beat a bit faster than usual. Little comments like that from her beloved really made her blush and she couldn't help it, Goku was really that special for her..
"C-Come on Goku-kun, you don't need to be so worried about us! Remember that I'm a S-Class Wizard like you so I know how to handle situations like these" responded Erza as she looks to the side trying to hide her slight blush coming from her face..
"I know Erza-chan, That's why I have a lot of faith in the two of you!" commented the Saiyan God as he puts two fingers into his forehead, which was noticed by both Natsu and Gray who grabbed onto his shoulders without hesitation "Alright guys, hold on to me tightly!"
Without wasting anytime, Goku along with Natsu and Gray teleported away thus leaving the two mages and Exceed in charge of protecting the civilians from any danger. However, the Celestial and Re-quip mage had a thought on their mind as they were staring at the spot where the 'Assault' team was a few seconds ago..
"Good luck everyone! Specially you Goku-kun..!"
Scene Change... Ancient Ruins lower floor.. Galuna Island..
"So you were the only one who made it back right?" asked Lyon as he was sitting down on a throne with a neutral expression "And I assumed that you guys failed to kill the civilians in the village?"
"Onnnnn...!" responded Toby as he nodded in affirmation "I had to fight Titania by myself and her power is not something to joke with..! I barely was able to survive that onslaught!"
"Those Fairy Tail mages are really testing my patience.. I just hope Sherry and Yuka are okay, they could be either trapped or killed by those fairies.." thought the white-haired mage as he took a deep breath to calm himself down, before he could say something a certain masked appeared next to him to take over the conversation..
"The revival of Deliora will become difficult from now on thanks to the Fairy Tail mages intervening in our plans, not to mention this is our last chance to truly revive the Demon since there's a full moon tonight.." replied the masked man who is now known as Zalty with a smirk on 'his' face..
"This still doesn't make sense, my Ice-maker magic should have been enough to defeat them!" exclaimed Lyon with frustration in his tone of voice
"Do I have to remind you that you're up against mages like Salamander and Titania who is the strongest women of the guild. And that's not mentioning the future Wizard Saint candidate, Son Goku who defeated you with ease.." commented Zalty with a smirk on his face
"You don't need to remind me dumbass!" responded Lyon angrily as he stood up from his throne and clenches his right fist "I was careless back then but not anymore, I'm going to use my Ice Sword that surpasses Ur's magical power and with it I'll kill all of them!"
"If that's the case.." responded the short masked 'man' as he forms a crystal ball with his hand which was noticed by both Lyon and Toby "Then you won't mind if I joined the fun huh?"
"You're planning to join the battle?" asked the white-haired mage with curiosity
"Of course, let's just say that my magic ability can be considered a Lost Magic.." said Zalty as he left no more room to keep the conversation going since he wanted to keep most of his abilities in secret..
"This guy is really interesting the more he talks, just who the hell is he?" said Lyon to himself with a wary expression as quietly looks at the masked man. Before he could continue his train of thoughts, Lyon and his group heard a 'foosh' sound that caught their attention and move their gazes towards where it came from and for their surprise it was Son Goku, who came along with Gray and Salamander "What the?! How the hell did they get here?!"
"Incredible, not only Son-kun is powerful in his own right but is able to use Teleportation magic as well.. He really is full of surprises.." thought the masked 'man' as he was happy to see the Saiyan God once again, to bad it was under these circumstances..
Goku began to scan his surroundings and was able to sense that Lyon was here along with Toby as well. However, what caught his attention the most was the masked man presence. His energy was eerily similar to the purple-haired Councilwoman that he meet back at the Magic Council..
"There's no denying about it, the smell and the energy that masked man is emitting is similar to the Councilwomen I met two weeks ago.." thought the black-haired Saiyan with a serious expression as he kept gazing at Zalty "But why is someone who works with the Magic Council is working with the enemy? What does she achieve with allying herself with Lyon..?"
"Such a handsome face when he stares at me, I can already imagine he already knows who I am thanks to his sensing abilities.." thought Zalty as he kept staring at the Saiyan with a smile
"So you came Fairy Tail mages, are you ready for round two?" asked Lyon who recovered from his early shock as he stares at the three mages
"You bet we are! We are here to kick your ass into oblivion!" responded the Dragon Slayer as he collides both of his fist which creates a small amount of fire..
"I'm not interested in you, Salamander.." responded the white-haired mage casually as he moves his gaze towards the Saiyan God "Son Goku, you're my main threat that stands in between my plans. You along with Titania are need to be dealt with if I want to achieve Deliora's revival.."
"No offense Lyon, but if we fight again the results will end up being the same or even worst.." responded Goku casually to his opponent which made Lyon angrier than usual and Zalty just laugh quietly "Although, there's another person who will fight you and that's Gray!"
"After all you have done Lyon! I'm going to be the one stopping you!" exclaimed Gray out-loud to Lyon who just began to laugh at his statement
"You're bluffing right? You really think you can defeat me after I obliterated you last time we fought?!" stated Lyon in a mocking tone of voice towards Gray who never changed his expression..
"Don't worry I'll make sure this time is different.." responded Gray calmly as he begins to remove his shirt along with the weighted wristbands on his arms and ankles, which the moment he dropped them to the floor it created a crack, which surprised Lyon's group since they weren't expecting something like that..
The Ice-maker took a deep breath and began to make his Ki flow through his entire body, which caused a blue aura to appear around his body, followed by small wind gust that were felt around the room. This was of course notice by everyone in the room..
"W-What the?! What type of Magic is this?! His aura feels heavier than his usual Ice Magic..!" said Lyon in his thoughts as he stares at Gray in awe "Was he hiding all this power from our battle.."
"By removing those wristbands his level of power jumped to the level of a S-Class mage..!" thought Zalty in amazement as 'he' moves his gaze towards the Saiyan God who didn't looked surprised from his expression "Son-kun must be the one responsible for this and I have to admit I'm impressed by the results.."
"So these are the results of our training when we removed our weighted wristbands along with releasing our Ki.." thought Natsu as he stares at his rival with a smirk on his face "You better win this one Ice princess!"
"Gray's training results are staring to bear fruit! he has now entered the realm of an S-Class mage like Erza and his energy reserves have multiplied five fold!" said Goku to himself as he showed a satisfied smirk on his face "You can win this Gray!"
"Now Lyon, let's dance shall we.." commented Gray calmly as he disappears at high-speeds which shocked Lyon's group as they began to look around their surroundings with a frantic expression. However, in the next second Gray re-appeared besides him ready to deliver his attack "First Stance: Black Tortoise!"
The moment when Gray's attack made contact with Lyon's side stomach, it created a powerful shock-wave that pushed everyone back except Goku and Natsu who were keeping their distance. It also left a giant crack on the floor where the Ice mage was standing, followed by a huge crater on the wall where Lyon landed on as he coughs saliva with blood after receiving such devastating attack..
"I-Impossible..! That attack almost knocked me out!" thought Lyon with urgency as he kept coughing from that last attack "Was he holding back all that monstrous strength when we fought last time?!"
"What an incredible showcase of raw strength and speed! It's rare to find mages in this continent who can pull that stunt without any Magic enhancements and he did that without using any Magic!" said the masked man to 'himself' as he stares at Gray for a moment and then moves his gaze to Goku "Just what kind of physical training did you put him under, Son-kun?"
"What's wrong Lyon? I thought you were the superior one when it comes to fighting me.." asked Gray with a smirk on his face as he got into his Turtle Hermit battle stance, those words of course irritated the white-haired mage to no end as he stood up and began his counter-attack..
"Ice Maker: Birds!" shouted Lyon as he summons dozens of Ice birds and sends them towards Gray who still kept a calm demeanor..
"Ice Maker: Lance" said the black-haired mage calmly as he creates a single Ice lance on his right arm and begins to run at super-sonic speeds towards Lyon's direction. On his way Gray destroys every Ice bird with his Lance with such finessed that left everyone in the room speechless, even Goku and Natsu were impressed by what the Ice-maker was doing with his weapon of choice and they have seen him training on the daily..!
Without any other options, Lyon quickly enough creates an Ice Shield to protect himself from the incoming attack. Unfortunately for the white-haired mage, Gray with a powerful punch not only he destroyed Lyon's shield, but also punches him in the face with enough force that it destroys the wall completely and sends the two Ice mages to another room of the temple..
"Lyon!" shouted Toby as he was about to rush in to save his friend. However, he was stopped by a wave of fire that appeared in front of him. The cat-man turned his gaze to where that fire came from and it was none other than Salamander from Fairy Tail..
"Where do you think you're going cat boy!?" exclaimed Natsu with a savage grin as he begins to shoot fire from his feet to reach Toby's position quickly.. "Fire Dragon Iron Fist!"
The Dragon Slayer lands an enhanced fire punch to Toby's face that sends him flying to the opposite side of the room, followed by destroying the wall thanks to the impact it caused. Natsu didn't waste time and headed to where his opponent landed thus leaving Goku and the masked man by themselves in the throne room..
"Good, everyone seems to be fighting their respective opponents in different parts of the temple.." said the Saiyan God to himself as he got into his typical battle position "It gives me enough time to get answers from her.."
"What are you planning to do Son-kun?" thought Zalty with curiosity as 'he' monitors with his careful eye Goku's movement. But then in less then a second the Saiyan God appeared in front of Zalty ready to deliver his attack, which shocked the masked man to the core.. "W-What the? I wasn't able to track his movement?! Is he moving at a speed beyond what Gray showcased so far?!"
"Moon Light Sword Style #1: Palm Strike!" exclaimed Goku as he collided his right palm into Zalty's stomach, which created a Ki-based shock-wave that went through masked man and made him spit saliva as an aftermath..
"There's no doubt about it, Son-kun truly is at the level of a Wizard Saint or even beyond.." thought the masked 'man' as he slowly stood up after being on his knees for a few seconds thanks to Goku's attack.. "Even if I use my Arc of Time to slow him down and speed myself up, he would somehow be able to override the spell through raw strength.."
"What are you doing here in Galuna Island.. Ultear-san" asked the black-haired Saiyan with a serious expression as he stares at his opponent wanting to get answers from her..
"So, you were able to find out my true identity. As expected from you Son-kun" responded the masked 'man' in feminine tone as she takes off her mask and begins to transform, followed by being consumed by a blinding light. After a few seconds of anticipation, the light began to die down to reveal the beautiful dark-purple haired woman, dressed in her white kimono she wears at the Magic Council which would attract any man that lays eyes on her.
The women couldn't help but to smile at seeing Goku's expression not changing despite the transformation, she decided to tease him for that..
"Come on Son-kun, at least try to change you expression when seeing me. It makes me think that you never missed me after our encounter.." exclaimed Ultear teasingly as she walks closer to the Saiyan so she could get a reaction from him..
"What are you doing here Ultear-san?" asked Goku once again but with a softer expression since he now knows who the person behind the mask is. However, that didn't mean he was fully going to lower his guard around a potential enemy..
"What, am I not allowed to see my favorite Fairy Tail mage when he's on a mission? You really are blunt when talking to a beautiful women huh.." responded the dark-purple haired women with a pouting expression, this of course made the Saiyan sigh with some frustration..
"Stop dodging the question Ultear-san, why are you helping Lyon in reviving Deliora? What do you gain from doing this? because I highly doubt a person from the Magic Council would willingly help to cause chaos and destruction on a single island to just revive a Demon.." stated the black-haired Saiyan with a serious expression towards the Councilwoman who took a few steps back and gave a sigh..
"For acting naive most of the time, you have the smarts to figuring things out Son-kun.." responded Ultear casually as she looks at Goku "Just for that I'll answer your questions, the reason why I'm working with Lyon is because my mother is trapped inside the Iced Shell along with Deliora, in which by default it allows us to work together to achieve our goals.."
"Your mother is trapped inside with Deliora.." said the Saiyan as he got into a thinking position for a few seconds until his eyes widen in realization "Wait?! Are you talking about..!?"
"That's right, Ur Milkovich the person who sacrificed herself with the Iced Shell and who also taught Gray and Lyon the art of Ice-Maker magic is my biological mother.." answered the dark-purple haired women with a serious expression. This revelation left Goku stunned for a few seconds because his theory ended up being true, Ur was not dead but instead was frozen along with Deliora..
"So Ur is still alive huh? No wonder I could feel another faint energy source that wasn't Deliora.." said Goku to himself as he focuses on Ultear once again "If what you said it's true, then what are planning to do with her?"
"I'll take her out of that frozen prison and make her go through the worst hell possible, followed by killing her with my own hands.. That's what she deserves after what she made me go through" responded Ultear in dark tone of voice which made Goku's expression turned into a shocked one..
This was going to be a long conversation..
Scene Change.. Ancient Ruins Lower Floors..
Meanwhile the conversation was going on, the battle between Ice mages was raging on as Gray who was dodging Lyon's Ice birds with ease once again, he responded back by creating multiple Ice Lances and launches them to Lyon who gritted his teeth in frustration..
"Ice-Maker: Spikes!" shouted the white-haired mage as he slams both of his hands to the floor and creates giant Ice Spikes that were heading towards Gray's direction, along the way it also destroyed the Ice Lances with no problems. This however didn't worried Gray the slightest since he had a plan to counter-attack it..
"2nd Stance: Phoenix Kick!" said Gray as he stomps the ground with his newly raw strength and creates a powerful shock-wave through the entire room. Not only it completely destroys the Ice Spikes but it also dismantle the entire floor they were standing on, thus making them fall into the bottom of Ancient ruins where Deliora was...
"How much raw strength does he has?! It's almost comparable to that of Son Goku..!" thought Lyon with frustration as he was trying to come up with a plan to lessen the fall he was about to get. Gray used this moment of distraction to attack him head-on meanwhile they are falling, he uses one of the rocks falling down as a platform and propels himself at fast speeds to deliver a powerful punch to the face that sends Lyon crashing to the floor, which creates a crater below him..
"How is he overwhelming me so easily? I thought I was supposed to be stronger than Ur, and yet Gray is defeating me with no problems.." said Lyon to himself as he began to slowly stand up from the crater where he landed, then he noticed that Gray landed close to him and began to speak up..
"Stop this nonsense Lyon, you could never kill Deliora if your having a hard time fighting me.." exclaimed Gray with a serious expression "I know you still mad about me killing Ur ten years ago and that's understandable. However, I can't forgive you after all you have done in this island, so I decided that I will finish this once in for all and fix what Ur stared.."
Gray gets into a familiar position that Lyon knew very well, and begins to release a huge amount of Magic energy that created cold wind gusts being felt through the entire chamber where Deliora is located..
"Iced Shell?! Are you out of your mind!?" shouted Lyon with some fear in his tone of voice, he knew that if this attack was executed him along with Gray will die together..
"Return the lives of the innocent people back to normal and leave with the rest of your buddies! This is your last chance before we both die.." exclaimed the Ice-mage with a impassive expression
"So you were bluffing after all.. Of course you don't have the guts to kill the both of us!" stated the white-haired mage with a mocking smirk on his face. However, that expression turned into a shocked one as he notice Gray increasing his Magic energy output which created more powerful wind gust, along with keeping the same stance that allows him to preform Iced Shell..
"Do I look like I'm joking at all..?" exclaimed Gray with determination in his voice "The reason why Ur passed away doesn't matter anymore since I'm going to take responsibility by fully sealing Deliora with my own Iced Shell.. So Lyon either you fix all these mistakes you caused in the island or we are dying together..?!"
"Do it, you don't have the balls to kill me and yourself.." said Lyon still in denial that Gray will go through his threat
"What a shame.. Just hope Ur forgive us when we go to Valhalla or Niflheim.." stated the Ice wizard as he closed his eyes and begins to enchant the words "Ice-Maker: Iced.."
Before he could finish those words, Gray suddenly receives a powerful punch to the face that pushes him down to the floor. This of course surprised the Ice-maker mage since he knew that punch wasn't from Lyon who also was shocked from the sudden turn of events. Gray turns his gaze towards the person who was responsible of it and to his surprise it was none other than Natsu Dragneel who had a very irritated expression..
"What the fuck do you think your doing Ice stripper?!" exclaimed Natsu with a angry expression as he got closed to Gray's face "Are you trying to sacrifice yourself to fix your mistake when you haven't realized what your actions will do to your friends?! What will Goku think that one of his students died?!"
At hearing those words Gray's eyes went wide in shock, he was so tunnel vision in his goal that he didn't realized how his friends would take the news of him sacrificing himself, hell what would Goku even think if he died right here with Lyon..
He shudder at the thought of it..
"I'm going to look for Goku, so next time when I comeback I better not see you die or else I'll drag your ass back from the after-life!" stated the Dragon Slayer as he began to walk away from the battlefield, followed by turning his gaze towards Gray once again "Kick his ass and don't dirt the name of Fairy Tail!"
After Natsu left to look for Goku, the battlefield was quiet for a couple of seconds until Lyon spoke up..
"You have a quiet annoying group" said Lyon with a neutral tone of voice which made Gray slightly smirk at the comment
"What can I say there's a reason we are the best guild in Fiore.." responded back the Ice-maker mage as he stood up from his position "Answer me this, were you aware that he was going to stop me from preforming Iced Shell?"
"I didn't expect that fool to show up but I knew the Iced Shell wasn't going to work since this part of the ancient temple receives Moon Drip.." said Lyon with a confident smirk on his face..
"Tch.. So using the Iced Shell wasn't going to end up working in the long run.." exclaimed Gray with frustration in his tone of voice as he then got up and got into the Turtle Hermit stance "It seems we are going to do this old style.."
"I knew you would say that.." said the white-haired mage who was know standing up and took a deep breath as he looks at Gray with cold eyes "I was planning to use this on Son Goku since he's the main threat of my plans, but you ended up being more annoying than I thought so I have no choice but to go all out.."
Gray kept his fighting position as he saw Lyon beginning to use his Ice-Maker Magic and starts to form an elegant Ice Sword, this made Gray raised his right eyebrow in curiosity as he could sense a great amount of Magic energy being stored in said sword..
"This is the Ice Sword that surpasses Ur's Magical power and will slain down Deliora, Excalibur..!" exclaimed Lyon proudly as he got into a sword stance ready to face Gray off one more time "I hope your newly gain strength is able to match the amount of Magical power it now posses!"
"Keh! If you really think that's going to defeat Deliora then you got another thing coming..!" responded Gray as he begins to channel his Ki once again so he can finish this battle once it for all..
Scene Change... Ancient Ruins upper level floors..
"Ultear-san wants to torture and kill her own mother..?" thought Goku astounded as he was wondering why Ultear would go this far just to torture and kill her own mother, he would never imagine his own sons wanting to kill him or Chi-Chi unless they have done something terrible to them.. The Saiyan God began to stare at Ultear's soulless eyes and from there he could notice many emotions mixing together, but the ones that stand out the most were Hatred, Revenge and Suffering.. "There's no doubt about it, she must have gone through some traumatic events in the past that makes her believe that her mother is the one to blame. When in reality is those bastards that made her go through it.."
"You know Son-kun is not nice to leave a lady hanging after she reveals such secret to someone.." stated the dark-purple haired women in a cold tone of voice towards the Saiyan's who stopped his train of thoughts and focuses on the conversation at hand..
"Sorry, I was just thinking if truly making your mother suffer and killing her would truly solve your issues.." said Goku truthfully towards Ultear who just stood quiet as he let the Saiyan talk "Like what is your plan after all said is done?"
"Multiple plans, one of them being the downfall of the Magic Council and reviving an ancient dark wizard with Grimione Heart but you don't need to know that.." thought the Councilwomen to herself as she thought about her future plans. Other than that, all her life has been walking on the revenge path and using any means necessary to achieve her main goals..
She was not going to be convinced by words only..
"You know revenge is not the answer to all things.. I can see from your eyes that you have a lot of resentment, hatred and revenge being built up inside you, I assume that Ur either abandoned you or did something unforgivable in your point of view. I also believe that neither Gray or Lyon are at fault if you think they replaced you, they are not the people to blame.." commented the Saiyan with a serious but soft expression as he explains his point of view of the situation "There has to be another way to confront this situation without blood being spilled, for all we know Ur might have even loved you.."
"I'm going to stop you right there Son-kun.." exclaimed Ultear as she stops Goku from talking anymore by raising her hand to his direction "You are right in some things that you mentioned. I hold a lot hatred and resentment towards my mother and it is my destiny to make her suffer with my own hands after the sins she committed! By abandoning me in that cursed laboratory where I was tortured, she created a monster that was taken by a Dark Guild and was groomed to destroy and ravage villages along with their people. The only reason I became a Wizard Saint and Councilwomen is because I leak important information to the people I truly work for. All of this could have been prevented if she actually cared about me or me not having a high Magic power.."
The dark-purple haired women couldn't help but to grit her teeth in anger after saying those words towards the Saiyan who stayed quiet all the time.. She couldn't help but wonder why she was venting so much towards Goku when it past she always hid her secrets..
Maybe his naive nature was affecting her impassively, but right now Ultear didn't care as she glares at Goku followed by grabbing him from his Gi collar and continues with her venting..
"Now that you know some of my secrets, are you planning to kill me after learning how much of a monster I am?!" exclaimed Ultear as she clenches her available fist tightly that it almost made her bleed "Well? answer me Son-kun!"
The Saiyan God just stood there quietly as he absorbs all the information he just heard. Not only he was surprised by Ultear's dark past but also intrigued to learn more about it and trying to understand. Even if she has done all of those bad things, Goku couldn't help but to feel pity towards her. So he decided to do the thing he always does when he defeats his opponents..
Giving them a second chance..
"I'm not going to kill you or even report you to the Magic Council.." responded Goku calmly towards the Arc of Time mage, who's eyes went widen at hearing his comment and lets go of his collar "After everything you have told me, I came to the conclusion that you're not a monster. A true monster would have hidden this information and use it for their advantage. Which you didn't so stand proud for that, you are also a strong willed person for handling all that torment that you went through in your childhood it's admirable. I also think destiny doesn't chain us down to one path only when in reality humans are allowed to choose and create their own path by themselves and that includes you as well Ultear-san, you can redeem yourself from those sins by carving that new path.."
"So if you ever encounter your mother in person, at least try to give her a second chance like I'm giving you one. Try to at least create a new path where both of you are at peace.. Also if you need any assistance to reach that conclusion you can always count on me, your not alone on this crusade anymore so don't think that because you're a spy or member of Dark Guild is doesn't give you the right to have support so count on me Ul-chan!" said Goku after finishing his long speech with a grin on his face..
Ultear couldn't help but to feel shocked after hearing Goku's speech. She couldn't believe that there was someone in this rotten world that would extend their hand towards her and listen to her past without judging. She has always been alone in this dark path, not opening up for anyone expect for her adoptive daughter Meredy who is right now at Grimione Heart working under Master Hades. Ultear knew she wasn't a person to be trusted with, and yet this person from Fairy Tail who she finds really attractive was extending his hand to give her support.. Just thinking about made her cold heart began to race for the first time in a while, along with making her blush a little..
"You really are an unique person Son-kun.." responded the dark-purple haired mage with a soft smile "Unfortunately, I can't change my destiny when it comes to me being part of Grimione Heart so I have to carry those sins that I committed with them regardless. Which will force us to become enemies sooner or later even thought the two of us don't want that.."
"I see.. So I guess I can't change your opinion about creating a new path.." exclaimed Goku in a saddened tone which made Ultear chuckle a bit..
"On the contrary, I might not be able to change my path with Grimione Heart but you were able to at least change my mind when it comes to not killing my mother. I'll try to listen to her whole story and from there I'll see if she actually deserve a second chance.." commented the Councilwomen as she turns around and begins walk away "I'll leave the rest to you Son-kun, I have nothing to do on this island so I'll see you again when the Wizard Saint trials take place, that's where we going to have more time to talk.."
"Okay, then I'll see you soon Ul-chan!" responded Goku happily as he waves at her. Before he could teleport to where Gray and the others were, Ultear turned around and quickly makes her way to where the Saiyan was standing and gives him a soft kiss on his check which left the Martial Artist stunned. This was noticed by the Time Arc mage who chuckles quietly and goes to whisper on his ear..
"I've seen how Erza Scarlet and that blonde girl have been trying to get closer to you and I don't blame them. But remember this Son-kun, no matter how many women are trying to get closer with you, at the end of the day you will be mine. That I'll make sure of it.." murmured Ultear seductively to Goku's ear as she separates herself from him and leaves the scene by using her Magic. Which leaves a confused Goku who touched his right cheek where the Councilwoman left her kiss..
"Ul-chan sure is quite a character, I didn't get what she was trying to say at the end but for some reason it reminded of Chi-Chi that's for sure.." said Goku to himself with a chuckle "Although I wonder why she kissed me in the cheek but not on the lips, I thought the only way to do it properly was on the lips.. Oh well! I shouldn't think about it much when there's other important things going on.."
Before Goku could teleport away, a certain Dragon Slayer shouted his name from behind..
"Goku!" shouted Natsu as he enters the chamber where Goku is located
"Hey Natsu! What's up" exclaimed Goku happily as he turned his gaze to the Dragon Slayer who had some scratches around his body but nothing major "Were you able to defeat your opponent..?"
"Yep, I had no issue with him. Although cat boy had an annoying gimmick that Erza warned me about but after that no issues.." responded the Dragon Slayer casually as he puts both of his hands behind his neck "By the way, were you able to defeat the masked man? I don't see him anywhere.."
"Oh, I was able to convince him to leave this island which he did.." said the Saiyan God lying about what happened with his encounter with Ultear, he wasn't going to reveal her secrets unless she tells him too..
"I bet that guy got scared in feeling your presence, what a coward! I mean who wouldn't since you are one of the strongest S-Class members in Fairy Tail!" exclaimed Natsu as he began to laugh out-loud.. Goku limited himself from laughing since he knew that Ultear was anything but a coward after what she went through in her past..
So Goku decided to change the topic..
"Hey Natsu, do you know where Gray is? Was he able to finish his fight with Lyon?" asked the Saiyan God with curiosity towards the pink-haired mage..
"They are still fighting against each other in lower levels where Deliora is, I also was looking for you because it's almost night and you know what that means.." responded Natsu with a serious expression..
"Yeah the sooner we stall, the sooner Deliora will awaken.." said Goku neutrally as he puts two fingers on his forehead "Alright Natsu, grab on to my shoulder! we are teleporting to where those two are.."
"Alright!" responded Natsu in agreement as he grabs on to Goku's shoulder with his right hand. Before the Saiyan God could teleport away he began to have some thoughts about a certain Councilwomen..
"It doesn't matter what obstacles we will go through, I'll help you find a way to resolve your problems in a pacific way where no blood needs to be spilled, along with leaving your past behind. That is a promise I won't break, Ul-chan.." thought Goku with a soft smile as he teleports away to where the final battle might occur..
Scene Change.. Ancient Ruins lower floor..
Both Gray and Lyon collided once again but with their respective Ice weapons they forged, Lyon was using Excalibur stated to be as strong as Ur's Magical power meanwhile Gray was using an Ice Lance he forged with his newly Magic reserves that it took a different shape than his usual ones..
(A/N: Gray's Ice Lance looks like Dimitri's Areadbhar from Fire Emblem: Three Houses)
Lyon began to swing his sword at the Ice mage in different styles that he learned throughout the years, unfortunately Gray was dodging them with ease thanks to his improved speed he gained after removing his wristbands. The black-haired mage dodges another swing from the Ice sword and sees an opening, in which he uses by thrusting his Lance to Lyon left side abdomen and manages to cut him. The white-haired mage grunted in pain and decides to go for another swing, however Gray parries it with his Lance and then follows up by delivering a powerful kick to Lyon right side abdomen which sends him back a couple of meters away..
"Shit! I'm losing too much energy using Excalibur!" said Lyon to himself in frustration as he slowly was staring to get up, not even bothering cleaning the blood that dripping from that previous attack
"You really are stubborn in giving up huh.." exclaimed Gray with a sigh as he puts down his special Ice Lance into the ground..
"You..! How the hell are you this strong?! In our last battle I was completely overwhelming you! It's impossible to gain such increase in power in that lapse of time..!" shouted Lyon in anger as he was glaring daggers at Gray who couldn't help but to form an annoyed expression..
"Can you shut up!? I'm tired of hearing you rambling about how it's impossible for me to have surpassed you when I just gave you hard proof by beating you in every way..!" stated the Ice-maker mage of Fairy Tail as he got into his Full Contact Karate "If you want to know who trained me to be this strong, it was the Wizard Saint candidate who trained me.."
"W-What...?" was the only word that Lyon could say, as he was stunned to hear that it was Son Goku himself that trained him personally. "I see, no wonder he was preforming different types of combat styles along with using his raw strength. He got that from Son Goku.. Just how long have you been training under him?"
"This battle has reached it's conclusion, I'll show you one more time that I have surpassed you in every category!" exclaimed Gray as he dashes at super-sonic speeds towards Lyon who didn't have the time to defend himself "3rd Stance: White Tiger's Dance!"
The Ice-maker mage began to deliver a fast combo of strikes composed by multiple high and low kicks, along with precise punches that penetrated Lyon's defense completely. Each punch and kick was leaving Lyon on the brink of being knocked out, that he could swore he saw Gray leaving colored after-images from how fast he was going..
"4th Stance: Blue Dragon's Storm!" shouted Gray as he puts all of his Ki in his right leg and kicks a powerful wind blast towards Lyon's direction, which send him flying a fast speed and makes him crash into Deliora's Ice prison where the impact made the entire lower floor shook. As the dust stared to clear out Gray could see Lyon full with blood around his body, coming out of the crater but after taking his first step he falls flat to the floor.. "Good thing I didn't made contact with Lyon with that kick, it would have killed him easily if that's the result of just using the wind blast.."
"N-No... " murmured Lyon in pain as he was trying to get up, unfortunately his body just gave up on any command he was trying to give "Deliora will be revived soon... If I don't have the strength of it.. Everyone will die..!"
"Wait what did you said?" asked Gray with a confused tone of voice since he couldn't pick up what Lyon said and went to where he was laying down. However, he suddenly heard a cracking sounds coming from Deliora's Ice prison, followed by creating tremors through the entire Ancient Temple. This sudden turn of events made Gray's eyes go wide in fear "Oh no.. We have been fighting for a while that It's already night time..!"
Deliora was going to be awaken..
Before he could continue with his train of thoughts. Goku and Natsu reappeared besides Gray which caught the attention of the Ice-maker mage..
"It seems that we weren't able to stop the ritual from fully happening.." commented the Saiyan God neutrally as he looks at Gray for a moment "Hey Gray! It seems that you were able to defeat Lyon with no problem! See I told you that if you believe in yourself you will win..!"
Gray was about to ask Goku why he wasn't concerned in what's about to happen. However, he was interrupted by Lyon who was now in a sitting position trying to slowly recover from those attacks..
"It's too late now Son Goku, Gray. Deliora is going to be awaken in the next few moments and none of us have the power to stop this monster from destroying the entire island.." commented Lyon in a serious tone of voice towards the male members of Team Natsu "You blew your chance of survival by leaving me in this state..!"
"This wouldn't have happened if you have brought that Demon to this island to awaken it!" responded Gray angrily towards the white-haired mage "You wasted years of your life trying to accomplish this sick fantasy of yours in trying to revive something that shouldn't be touched. And now look where that lead you! death and suffering for this island..!"
"At least I try to do something to avenge Ur...! Meanwhile you were wasting ten years of your life on that stupid guild, I was trying to bring Deliora from Brago to this island and three years ago I was able to successfully do it. Year after year the Moonlight began to weakened the Iced Shell and now it will be released from it's prison.." stated Lyon as he clenches his fist in frustration "At least you're coming down with me Gray, that's your punishment!"
"Yo Ice popsicle! Can I knock him out?! I'm getting sick and tired of hearing him preaching his bullshit.." asked the Dragon Slayer with an annoyed expression as he was ready to knock Lyon out..
However, before anyone could say anything Goku, Natsu, Gray and Lyon heard a loud crack coming from the Ice prison which destroys part of it, followed by a primordial roar that made the entire Ancient Ruins and part of Galuna Island shake to it's core. The shaking was enough to completely obliterate the Ice prison, thus releasing a Demonic beast that was slumbering for the past ten years, each step the Demon took it created tremors thanks to it's size and his Magical power was creating a pressure that was destroying the Ancient Temple slowly..
"D-Deliora.." murmured Gray with some fear on his tone of voice, as he saw Deliora giving another powerful roar that created wind gust through the entire lower floor..
"Damn that bastard is loud..!" thought Natsu as he covers his ears from all the yelling, it didn't help that he had enhanced hearing since it made it more annoying than usual "So that's the Demon that Gray was afraid off huh..."
"So that's Deliora huh.. From what I can sense he's definitely stronger than Lullaby by multiple times.." thought the Saiyan God as he stares at the Demon with a challenging smirk on his face "Perfect..!"
Scene Change... Galuna Island village..
"That should be every last one of Lyon's goons..!" exclaimed the Celestial mage as she finishes tying up the last remnants of Lyon's group.. "With that out of the way, the village should be safe for now.."
"Good. However, we should stay aware of our surroundings if anything out of the sudden happens.." responded Erza with a neutral tone of voice towards Lucy
Before anyone could say anything, the two mages and Exceed began to feel the ground tremble which made them stumble a little, followed by a primordial roar that made them feel a shiver down their spine
"My ears!" exclaimed Happy as he covered his kitty ears, Lucy was also doing the same since she has never heard something so loud in her life. Erza was the only one who didn't covered her ears since she's an S-Class mage and has dealt with monsters giving these type's of roars..
"Where did that come from?!" exclaimed the Re-quip mage with urgency as she stares at the direction where she thinks is coming from.. Erza's eyes widen when her gaze landed at the direction where the Ancient Ruins is located "Was Deliora awakened?! Did we failed on stopping his revival?!"
"Wait hold on! What do you mean that we failed in preventing Deliora's revival?!" asked Lucy with a stunned expression which was slowly morphing into a terrified one "But Goku-kun, Natsu and Gray were supposed to head there to stop it! Wait..! D-Don't tell me that..!"
"We are not completely aware of what's happening in the Ancient Ruins and I highly doubt that Goku and the others have been defeated that easily.." remarked the red-haired mage as she tries to calm down Lucy from being overwhelmed with her feelings "However, we need to go back to the temple quickly to give them support!"
"Right!" exclaimed the Celestial mage with a determine expression, even thought she was afraid to fight against a Demon that could potentially destroy this island. As long as her Goku-kun, Erza and the others were on good condition she has no doubt that they will be able to take down Deliora..
Without wasting more time, Erza, Lucy and Happy began to dashed their way to the Ancient Temple hoping that they will be able to reach there in time..!
Scene Change.. Ancient Ruins lower floor..
Deliora gave another primordial roar that shook the temple to the core which made Goku and the others to stay on guard. However, what they didn't expect was the Demon to released a wave of dark magic that was heading to their direction. The Saiyan God saw this coming and creates a Ki sphere that covers the rest of his team including Lyon who was now standing up but struggling to keep himself up at the same time..
He would need to give him a Senzu bean to heal when they get the time..
"Damn it! The more Deliora keeps yelling and releasing energy the more the ruins keep collapsing!" exclaimed Gray with a urgent tone of voice "We need to find a way to get this thing out of the temple before we get crushed by the collapsing ruins!"
"And how are we planning to do that Ice Princess? I highly doubt we can move that behemoth without the debris coming down on us!" responded the Dragon Slayer as he gritted his teeth in frustration..
"Don't worry guys, I got a plan to get Deliora out of here!" stated Goku with a confident smirk on his face as he lowers the Ki barrier and begins to walk towards it's direction..
"W-Wait Goku! What are you planning to do?!" asked Gray in a concerned tone towards the Saiyan who didn't looked back but responded..
"You said we need to find a way to get Deliora outside of the temple right?" said the Saiyan God confidently as he takes out his Power Pole and gives it a spin before he points it at the Demon "Let's just say I have a unique way to take him outside..!"
"What is Son Goku planning do to? Even if he has a method to take Deliora outside, I doubt he will be able to accomplish something.. If S-Class mages like Ur couldn't kill Deliora then I highly doubt he can.." thought Lyon tiredly as he was waiting for his imminent death along with the others..
However, what he was about to witness next was something that only a God would be able to preform..
"Power Pole: Extend and Expand!" shouted Goku as he command his weapon to not only extend but to expand to the point it covered Deliora's entire body. When the giant Power Pole collided with the Deliora it pushes its body with such force that it destroys most of the Ancient Ruins and leaves it exposed to the night sky, fortunately since the giant Power Pole was covering Team Natsu and Lyon they didn't get hit by the debris. The Power Pole kept extending to the point it reaches a height of a hundred and fifty meters and a diameter similar to the Demon, when the weapon stopped extending it sends Deliora flying to the shoreline of Galuna Island where the impact caused a huge earthquake in the island..
Natsu, Gray and Lyon couldn't believe what they just have witnessed that they stayed stunned for a couple of seconds, but it was enough time to express their thoughts..
"HOLY SHIT! I didn't know Goku could that with his weapon!" thought the Dragon Slayer with a shocked expression that turned into a admiration one "That is so fucking awesome! I wanna learn how to do that!"
"D-Did Goku just made his Power Pole extend and expand to the size of a building?! Since when he could do that?!" said Gray within himself as sweat stared to come down from his face.. "C-Could Goku actually be able to destroy Deliora completely? Was I wrong all this time about him not being able to do it..?"
"I've never seen someone being able to do that with their weapon..! Specially being able to wield such object with ease!" thought Lyon with widen eyes as he stares at Goku and notices how he was still being able to hold the giant Power Pole "Does Son Goku truly posses God-like strength to be able to do these feats..?! Was he holding back this much power against me..?!"
Meanwhile outside the destroyed Ancient Ruins, we could see Lucy, Erza and Happy approaching to the ruins until they stopped all of the sudden as the saw a giant red pole that was sticking out from the temple like a sore thumb..
"What is that thing?!" shouted the Celestial Mage with stunned expression "Where did it come from?!"
"I'm not so sure myself..." responded Erza who also had a surprised expression on her face "But we won't be able to find out if we keep standing here, Let's go!"
"A-Aye!" answered both Lucy and Happy at the same time as they dashed once again towards where the Ancient Ruins used to be..
When the two mages and Exceed got into the entrance, close to it they saw a giant hole where the red pole was coming from. As the three of them got closer to it they saw something that they have never seen before..
"Goku-kun!?/Goku?!" shouted Lucy, Erza and Happy at the same time as they saw the Saiyan God on the lowered floors holding the giant red pole like if it was nothing. This of course got the attention of Goku, who looks up and sees the girls and Exceed staring at him with a stunned expression...
"Oh! Hey girls! I didn't expect the three of you to be here.." exclaimed Goku with a typical grin on his face as he commanded his Power Pole to shrink to its normal size which surprises everyone who was watching..
Not wanting to waste more time, the two mages and Exceed began to descend to the lower floor with their respective methods and landed closed to Goku's group..
"What was that Goku-kun?! What was that thing that you were holding?!" asked Lucy quickly as she wanted to know what her beloved was carrying with such ease. Even Erza and the others who were watching wanted to know as well..
"That was my Power Pole!" responded the Saiyan God as if it was the most normal thing to say, which surprised the two female mages since they weren't expecting his weapon to do all that "If you're wondering how it's able to extend to such length and width, I wouldn't be able to tell you because I'm not even sure myself. But what I can tell you is that it follows my command so that's enough for me work around it.."
Everyone who was present couldn't helped but to feel shock at hearing Goku's explanation, being able to wield such huge weapon requires a great amount of raw strength and the Saiyan made it look like it was nothing..
He really was different compared to the others..
"Where is Deliora?" asked Erza with a serious expression as she was scanning her surroundings and there was no sign of the Demon "I assume this was your doing Goku-kun?"
"Yep! I used the Power Pole to send him flying to the nearest shoreline of the island. So I'll be able to fight him without endangering the population..!" responded Goku with a typical smile. This answer of course was met by different reactions, specially by a certain Ice-maker mage who was the loudest..
"Wait Goku! you don't need to fight Deliora!" shouted Gray as he was staring at Goku with a concerned expression "This is all my fault, if Ur didn't had to sacrifice herself to save me we wouldn't be in this situation! So please, don't fight Deliora and let me use Iced Shell to completely seal it..!"
"So you're planning to sacrifice yourself not realizing the emotional damage you would caused to your friends.." responded the Saiyan God with a serious face that then turns into a soft smile "I'm not going to let you go through that pain, when there's other options to resolve this situation.."
"Goku.." murmured the black-haired mage as he could feel some tears coming down "Can you promise me one thing? Just survive this battle, I don't think I'll able to handle the thought of you losing your life because of my past sins.."
"Don't worry Gray I'll win this battle..!" responded Goku with a thumbs up towards his student as he releases his white Ki aura and shoots off to the sky towards the direction where Deliora landed, thus leaving everyone in deep thoughts..
"Damn it, I'm still not strong enough to fight alongside with Goku..!" thought the Dragon Slayer as he clenches his fist in frustration "I need to get more stronger!"
"You better comeback alive Goku-kun! I wouldn't know how to react if something bad happens to my beloved.." said Lucy within her mind as she looks at the night sky where the Saiyan left..
"Let's not just stand here doing nothing and follow Goku-kun's trail, even thought he asked us not to intervene in this fight he might need our support if things go south!" exclaimed Erza with authority towards her team, who nodded in agreement and began moving towards Goku's direction along with Lyon who was being carried by Gray..
"I hope you're confident in defeating that demon Goku-kun, from what I can sense he's far more powerful than the Lullaby and has enough power to defeat S-Class mages.." thought the Re-quip mage as she was leading the group towards where Goku and Deliora would be fighting "Please survive this fight and comeback to us, comeback to me.."
Scene Change... Galuna Island shoreline...
Deliora gave a primordial roar and began to shake an entire part of the island. Followed by creating a giant red magic circle in front of him, where he would unleashed a powerful Magic beam that will destroy a good part of Galuna Island along with the village. The Demon finishes charging its attack and launches it towards where the village location is..
However, that attack wouldn't be able to reach its destination thanks to a certain Saiyan God..
"Oh no you won't!" shouted Goku as he arrives to the battlefield and with his right leg he blocks the attack with ease. With a mighty yell, the Saiyan God kicks Deliora's attack into the sky and after reaching a certain altitude the attack explodes, which lights up the sky into a red color for a couple of seconds "If that attacked landed to its destination it would definitely destroy part of Galuna Island.."
Deliora gave another roar and began to rush towards the Saiyan, who saw the incoming attack and blocks it with his left arm with no problems. The collision of Deliora's fist with Goku's left arm created a powerful shock-wave that was felt through the entire island..
"Gray was right, you really are powerful that S-Class mages would have difficulties towards you.." responded Goku casually towards the Demon, who was putting all it's weight to its fist but couldn't move the Saiyan "However, your opponent is on a whole other level..!"
"Moon Light Sword Style #3: Hand Slash!" exclaimed the Saiyan God as he focuses his right hand into a 'sword style' and with a quick motion he cuts Deliora's arm off. This made the Demon yell in pain as he separates himself from Goku who was looking at him with a calm expression and with his arms crossed..
Without wasting time, Goku teleports in front of Deliora and delivers a powerful earth-shattering punch to its face that it sends the Demon flying back a couple meters into the ocean, which causes huge waves to be scatter around..
Meanwhile that was going on, Team Natsu along with a injured Lyon arrived to the battlefield where could see a flying Goku staring down at Deliora with his arms crossed with a disappointing look on it's face, meanwhile said Demon was laying on the ocean facing up after that attack he received from the Saiyan.. This scenario surprised the whole group.
"Incredible..! Goku's raw strength is just at another level!" exclaimed Gray with a surprised tone of voice, as he couldn't believe in what he was witnessing with his own eyes..
"Not only that! Goku-kun is humiliating a Demon who is said to be powerful enough to destroy entire cities!" added Lucy to the conversation as she was staring at Goku's figure with amazement
"Goku-kun is treating Deliora like it's child's play and he's not fighting seriously..! Just how much powerful could he be if he releases all his strength?" thought Erza to herself as she stares at the Saiyan with curiosity, wondering how much power he's hiding..
"How is he defeating Deliora with such ease! Is he really that much stronger than the rest of S-Class mages including Ur?!" said Lyon within his mind as he looks at Saiyan with a gobsmacked expression
Back to the battle, Deliora began to stand up and gives a primordial roar that could be heard in the entirety of Galuna Island. Then the Demon summoned red magic circles in front of his face as he begins to charge another energy beam that was far stronger than the previous one. Goku slightly smirked at this and decided that he would received the attack head on, just to see if he needed to use more than five percent of his Base Form power..
The Demon then releases his energy beam that consumes the Saiyan's entire body, followed by a huge explosion that lights up the entire night sky and creates Island-sized shock-waves that was felt throughout Galuna Island and it's surrounding..
"Goku/Goku-kun!" shouted every member of Team Natsu in concern as they covered their faces from the shock-waves the explosion caused. As the explosion and clouds of smoke began to died down, the mages could see Goku still standing in the same position with his white Ki aura activated. However, the same can't be said about his Gi which was now torn up and was exposing his well toned body
The sight of Goku's exposed body made the female mages blush widely and began to bleed from the nose comically. Lucy and Erza's thoughts began to run up widely as they imagine perverted scenarios with the Saiyan, specially Erza who was self inserting herself into those scenarios that her 'special' novels she reads describe..
"Oh come on! This is one of my favorite Gi's I have..!" complained the Saiyan God with a pouting expression. Deliora just gave another mighty roar as he dashes once more towards the Saiyan ready to attack him with his only available arm. However, the black-haired Saiyan blocks the attack once again but this time using his right hand "Just for using that last attack, let me respond properly with one of my own I've been wanting to use!"
"Renewal Taekwondo: Recoilless Kick!" exclaimed Goku as he concentrates all of his current available Ki into his right leg and kicks Deliora with such force, that not only it cuts Deliora's whole body in half but also cuts through a wide area of the ocean along the night sky clouds that extends for miles.. This scene left everyone who was watching speechless
"No way.. He just split Deliora in two, along with the ocean and the sky in half?!" stated Lyon with a shocked expression as he looks at the other members of Team Natsu who also had a similar reaction to his "Was he holding back that God-like strength all this time..?!"
"Yeah, Goku is in whole other league compared to others high tier mages. He is after all the current strongest member of Fairy Tail!" responded Natsu with a wide grin on his face as he stares at the Saiyan with admiration "I want to reach that level strength! I'll make it happen no matter the obstacles!"
"And he still looks like he's not trying.." exclaimed in amazement the Re-quip mage as she looks at the spit cloud skies that last attack left. However, as she looks at the sky closely she noticed that part of it was broken like a glass shard "Is that.. some sort of barrier in the sky? Where did it come from..?"
Meanwhile back in the fight, Goku unleashes his white Ki aura once again as he cupped both of his hands and puts them near his waist. The Saiyan God gives the dying Demon a neutral look and speaks up..
"It's time to end this Deliora, you are strong but not to my standards since I've only use five percent of my Base power against you.." stated Goku neutrally as he begins to pour all his current Ki into his hands, where a blue ball of Ki began to take shape "This next attack is powerful enough to eradicate every cell in your body..! Kaaaaaaa... Meeeeee...!"
"What is he doing?" asked Lyon with curiosity from the sidelines as he notice a blue energy ball beginning to get bigger each second
"What you are about to witness is one of his strongest attack! Last time he used it not only he destroyed a Demon named Lullaby but also a whole mountain!" exclaimed Natsu with a smirk on his face, as he was excited to see one of Goku's signature attack once again..
"Haaaaaaa... Meeeeeee...!" chanted Goku calmly as his attack was beginning to grow bigger that it was staring to touch his palms
"I can't believe we are about to witness Goku-kun's signature attack again! He looks so dreamy and majestic doing it!" said Lucy in a fan girl-like tone of voice as she stares at the Saiyan God with a in-love expression..
"Not only that but this attack looks stronger than the one he used against the Lullaby!" added Gray to the conversation with anticipation as he felt excitement running through his body, it's not a everyday thing when his friend/master unleashes more of his power..
"Haaaaaaa!" shouted the Saiyan God as he unleashes a powerful blue wave of energy at hyper-sonic speeds towards Deliora, who was yelling in agony as he was completely consumed by the attack. The Kamehameha kept traveling though the ocean for a couple of miles until it dissipated into nothingness
The Demon that terrorize multiple cities in the northern continent no longer existed after receiving such devastating attack..
"I will never get tired of seeing that technique in action..!" thought the Dragon Slayer with a smile on face "One day I'll be able to do the same thing that's for sure..!"
"The Kamehameha is one of the most lethal attack but at the same time absolutely beautiful..! But that beauty doesn't compare to you my beloved" said the blonde haired mage as she stares at Goku with heart-shaped pupils
"Goku-kun will never stop at surprising me, he really is the most unique person I have met.." thought Erza with a smile along with a small blush on her cheeks..
Meanwhile Gray and Lyon were looking at the scene in disbelief, someone was able to destroy the nightmare that was Deliora without leaving any trace of his body. That monster that tormented them for years finally ceased to exist. This of course brought emotional reactions from both Ice-makers..
"Thank you Goku... You can finally rest in peace Ur..!" murmured Gray to himself as he didn't bother to clean the tears he was dropping..
"After ten years I've waited for this moment... However, someone stronger than Ur and me was able to destroy Deliora thus preventing me to achieve that goal..!" stated Lyon with clear frustration in his voice, along with crying at the same time. The impotence he was feeling was so overwhelming that he began to clench his fist so tightly that he was beginning to bleed from his palms, before he could continue with his negative thoughts he was interrupted by Gray who touched his shoulder with a soft smile..
"Even if you couldn't achieve your goal, you now have a chance to start a new beginning in where your not being weighted by the sins of the past.." commented Gray softly as he helps Lyon to get off from his knees since he was still injured from his recent battle..
Lyon kept staring at his fellow Ice-maker mage with teary eyes and began to contemplate the consequences of Deliora being destroyed. He could now accomplish his personal goals in where he doesn't need to spill the blood of innocents, when he thought about more he was so tunnel-vision that he didn't realized just how many lives he would have ruined on the way, specially Sherry, Yuka and Toby who were loyal to him but at the same time they were close friends..
Unironically, Son Goku save his life from taking a darker path..
"Son Goku... I owned you my life. One day I'll pay you this debt.." said Lyon to himself as stares at the Saiyan God who was descending from the skies and began to greet his friends who were congratulating him from his victory. After a couple of exchange words, Goku spoke up once again to talk about the issue at hand..
"Although I was able to destroy Deliora completely, the cursed of the island is still present as ever.." stated the Saiyan God as he points at the sky where the moon still has the same different color..
"So, you're telling me that all of that we have been doing so far has been for nothing?!" exclaimed Natsu in a whining tone of voice, as he couldn't believe that everything that has happened so far hasn't affected the mission at hand..
"Wait! remember how Lyon mentioned that he and his team have been here for three years and they were never affected by the Moonlight.." said Lucy as got into a thinking position for a couple of seconds until she realized something.. "Wait so that means..!"
"We need to destroy the moon.." responded Erza seriously who also came to that same conclusion, specially after witnessing the cracked barrier she sees in the night sky..
"Oh hell yeah! We finally get to destroy something!" shouted the Dragon Slayer with excitement since there was no doubt they will be able to achieve this as a team. Without wasting more time, Team Natsu along with Lyon who was being carried by Gray began to make their way towards the village. However, the only one who didn't move was Goku who was staring at the direction where the Ancient Ruins were, this was noticed by the Re-quip mage who spoke up to get his attention..
"Aren't you coming with us Goku-kun?" asked Erza with curiosity towards the Saiyan
"I need to check up on something back at the temple, I won't take to long I promise.." responded Goku with a easy-going smile towards Erza who lifted one of her eyebrows in curiosity, what could there be at the destroyed Ancient Ruins that got his attention..
"Very well, just don't take too long. I'll be waiting at the village with the others okay.." said Erza with a calm smile as she begins to walk away, thus leaving the Saiyan God by himself..
"Alright..! Let's see if Ul-chan's theory ends up being correct!" exclaimed the black-haired Saiyan to himself as he teleports to the Ancient Temple where Deliora used to be frozen and where a certain person should be alive..
Scene Change... Ancient Ruins Lower floor...
In a flash, Goku reappears in the destroyed lower floor and began to search for the person he was looking for..
"Come on, it should be around here somewhere.." commented Goku to himself as he kept looking for that energy signature he was looking for. Then his sensing abilities stared to pick up a diminutive energy signature that was similar to Ultear's life energy and Gray's magic reserves. The Saiyan began to move some Ice rocks blocking his way and what he found was a unconscious women who looked in her late 20's, wearing a torn jacket with a maroon neckline and blue jeans. But what made her stand out was the most was the short dark-purple hair that was similar to Ultear's..
"So this is Ur Milkovich, mother of Ul-chan and first master of Gray and Lyon.." murmured the Saiyan God to himself as he kept inspecting the unconscious women for a couple of seconds "Now that I look at her more, she's a lot younger than I thought since Ul-chan is a young adult so I thought she would be around Gohan's age currently. And not only that she's still emitting some life force despite being in a coma for a decade.."
"However, she can't survive in this state for too long. I have to save her!" exclaimed Goku with determination, as he puts his right hand onto Ur's abdomen and begins to channel a good part of his current Ki output which was five percent of his Base Form. After a couple of seconds of channeling his energy, Goku removes his hand and notices that Ur's skin tone was healthier than before which meant that it worked "Perfect, that should be enough for her to regain her consciousness!"
After a couple seconds of waiting, Ur's body began to stir up a little followed by slowly opening her eyes which showed to be mismatched colors, her right one being her original black onyx color and her left being pale silver. Despite that her view was still blurry from all those years trapped in the Iced Shell..
"Where am I..?" murmured tiredly Ur as she began to look to her sides despite her view being blurry.. "Is this what is known as Valhalla?"
"Valhalla? Is that what they call in this planet Heaven and Other World?" wondered Goku within himself as he shook his head, he decided to leave those thoughts for later since he needed to talk to Gray's previous master "No, you're not dead this is the living world. Well more specifically Galuna Island..!"
Ur's view began to clear up more and began to see where that voice was coming from. What she saw was a young man kneeing down next to her with black-spiky hair that defies gravity. However, what got her attention the most was his well toned body and his dark eyes that were emitting warmness.
"What a handsome young man.." thought the dark-purple haired women as she stared to sit up slowly "Sorry to ask, but may I know your name?"
"The name is Son Goku, but you can call me Goku for short!" responded the Saiyan God with his typical grin "I'm a S-Class mage from Fairy Tail and also Gray's second master!"
"Gray..?!" exclaimed Ur out-loud as she stares at the Saiyan with a shocked expression "Are you talking about Gray Fullbuster?! My student?!"
"Yep! the same one! Him along with another student of mine are training under me in the ways of Martial Arts! I gotta say he's really a quick learner and he just recently achieve the power of an S-Class Mage! Isn't that great?!" responded Goku with excitement as he stares at Ur who was in shocked after learning what happened to her student..
"Indeed.. So Gray was able to achieve his goal in joining Fairy Tail after my battle with Deliora huh..." murmured the Ice-maker master to herself as she feels a sense of pride that swell up in her chest.. However, her thoughts went back to what Goku said about being in Galuna Island which made her feel a great concern "Son Goku right? You said that we are in Galuna Island correct?! But that shouldn't be possible when I sealed Deliora in Isvan which is in the northern continent! What happened?!"
"Calm down Ur, let me go over what has happened in the last two days so you can get a better picture.." said the black-haired Saiyan calmly as he began to explained what has happened since their encounter with Lyon, all the way to tonight where he killed Deliora.. "And that's what happened the last two days that leads to this.."
"I can't believe it..." whispered Ur as she felt many emotions going through her mind. One of them was the disappointment she was feeling towards Lyon in how he almost made a stupid decision that not only it would end up killing him, but also cause mass casualties to the nearest civilization because he wanted to prove that he was superior..
If she ever encounters that idiot of a student, she will definitively give him a piece of her mind..
However, she also felt massive relief towards the Saiyan God who was the one responsible in eradicating Deliora from existence, which led her to the conclusion that he was the responsible one from bringing her from death itself..
"I'm really grateful for what you did Goku, for ending Deliora for good and for saving my life." responded the Ice-maker master with sincerity as she beautifully smiles at the Saiyan "I really thought that I was going to die after become the essence of the Iced Shell, but it seems that the spell doesn't work that way.."
"Hey it's no problem! It was the right thing to do.." said Goku with a smile on his face as he put both of his hands behind his neck "By the way I'm not done delivering the news, I'll think you'll like this one..!"
"More news? Please tell me this one is not going to give a heart attack like the previous ones..!" responded Ur in a joking manner as she was trying to light up the environment
"You're daughter, Ultear Milkovich is alive.." stated neutrally the black-haired Saiyan as if it was the most normal thing he has ever said.. When those words left Goku's mouth, it made Ur gained a stunned expression and grabs the Saiyan's damage Gi collar, thus bringing him closer to his face "Hey! What are you-"
"What did you just said..?!" asked Ur in a low but desperate tone of voice towards the Saiyan "Did you just said that my daughter Ultear is still alive?!"
"Yes she still alive. I wouldn't joke about someone being alive and death to person, specially if that person is their mother.." said Goku with a serious expression towards Ur who wanted to retort back, but seeing Goku's eyes not showing any hints of lying it made her give him the benefit of the doubt and lets go of his Gi collar..
"If what you said it's true? Then how is it possible that the doctors twenty years ago told me that my daughter passed away if she's still alive!" exclaimed the Ice-maker master out-loud as she could feel tears staring to come out, the overwhelming feelings going through her mind was being too much, specially with the news of her child being alive for the last twenty years..
"Wait they said Ul-chan passed away? But she told me that you abandoned her at the hospital.. Something is not right that's for sure.." responded Goku with a thinking expression, although their stories are not matching together there was one simple element that stays the same, that Hospital.. "Hey Ur, do you know what truly happened that day at the hospital? I know Ul-chan has her version of the events but she was a newborn back then, I feel like you would give me the complete puzzle.."
"Alright, everything began when she was born.." said Ur as she began to explain how Ultear was born with a sickness that was affecting her whole being. Apparently she was born unusual high magic level that could be comparable to S-Class Mages, which was causing her a high fever that began to worry the Ice-maker master. Without wasting time she went to the hospital to get her healed. However, after waiting for days one of the doctors that was taking care of Ultear approached her and delivered the news that she passed away..
Her only ray of hope vanished as soon as it appeared..
"After I found out about the news, I was so devastated and broken inside that I began to wonder aimlessly around the northern continent hoping for something to happened, either dying by the freezing temperatures or by dangerous beasts.." said Ur in a low tone of voice as she continues to tell the story, which Goku was paying attention closely "However, few years later I encountered myself on an abandoned village where Deliora was recently there. In that place I met Gray and Lyon who were both injured from the destruction that Deliora left. I decided to take them under my wing and train them so they can protect themselves, although I love them as if they were my own children, I still couldn't move away from the memory of losing my own daughter.."
"And that's basically the short version of the story.." said Ur in a defeated tone since it was hard for her to recall such memories that will always bring her pain.. The Ice-maker master then noticed that Goku had a calm but serious expression on his face, but what surprised her was Goku clenching his fists so tightly that it looks like he was about to drawn in blood "Goku? Are you alright?"
"Oh! Sorry about that I didn't mean to startled you..!" exclaimed Goku quickly as he calms himself down, but still couldn't hold back the resentment he was feeling towards those people at this very moment "I'm just mad that those bastards lie to the both of you! which led to so much suffering that the two of you didn't deserve! If I could only be able to locate them I would make sure they pay for their crimes..!"
"Calm down Goku, one day I know they'll get what they deserve but for now I'm just glad to know that my own daughter is alive.." commented the Ice-maker master as she gave a warm smile towards the Saiyan "When I was using the Iced Shell, I thought that I was finally going to reunite with her in Valhalla. But now that you have gave me all this information, you gave me back the hope I had lost years ago and for that I can't thank you enough.."
"Like I said earlier, it just felt right to help you and you're daughter so no need to thank me..!" stated the black-haired Saiyan with a grin on his face that made the older Ice-maker user slightly blush..
"Such a pure soul.. I've never met someone so selfless in wanting to help without receiving nothing.." thought the dark-purple haired women to herself as she could her heart beat go slightly faster "I'll get close to him and try to conquer his heart. That'll be my way to repay him back for saving me..!"
"Alright, I think we've been here for long enough! I have to go back to meet with my team, they must be getting worried that I have been gone for a while." exclaimed Goku casually as he stood up from his spot "By the way Ur, you should come with me I bet Gray would be ecstatic to see you once again!"
"I'll take on your offer Goku, I would really like to see just how much my student has improved and grown.." said Ur with a smile as couldn't wait to see one of her bratty students now being all grown up..
"Can you stand up?" asked the Saiyan God with curiosity towards the Ice-maker wizard, who was trying to stand up but was having difficulties..
"It might take me a minute but-.." said the dark-purple haired women who couldn't finish her sentence as she was lifted up by Goku in bridal style, which made Ur blushed at this action "Hey what are you doing?!"
"I know you're still recovering so I decided to carry you in the meantime.." responded Goku casually to the Ice-maker master "Either way by holding you already I can teleport to where the others are..!"
"And here I thought this is your way to make me fall for you, which by the way is working.." said Ur in a teasing tone to Goku who just tilted his head in confusion at the comment but decided to ignore it..
"Alright hold on to me tight Ur!" exclaimed the Saiyan God to the Ice-maker master who nodded as she holds on tightly to him, along with burying her head to his neck. Without wasting time, Goku along with Ur teleport away to where Team Natsu were..
Scene Change... Public Inn...
Meanwhile Goku was doing his mission in finding Ur. Team Natsu along with Lyon arrived to the village where the Chief was waiting for them, Moka began to ask once again why the Moon hasn't been destroyed, in which Erza explains more in-depth about the curse and how the Moon has been recollecting enough energy to create a barrier that creates the illusion of a lilac Moon. To prove her theory right, she decided that they will destroy the celestial body right now and Re-quips into her 'Heaven Wheels Armor', along with Natsu's help they joined their attacks together and 'destroy' the Moon which in reality it was the invisible barrier that after breaking it reveal the Moon's original color.
However, even if the barrier was destroyed the entire village population were still transformed into their demonic forms. In which the Re-quip mage answers that their demonic forms are their true selves and that the Curse of the Island erased their memories, making them believe they were human all the time. At the end it resulted to be correct since they stared to recover their true memories which made them very happy..
At the end they received the eight million jewels of the reward, along with the Celestial Spirit Key that came with it which was given to Lucy who was very elated at receiving such gift..
She would need to thank her beloved for taking her to this mission..
After all of that was done, we could see the group mages back in the Public Inn where they decided to stay one more night before leaving to Fairy Tail. Lucy and Erza were in the living room drinking tea, along with reading a book to pass the time. Natsu and Happy were in one of available spaces sleeping, meanwhile Gray was getting Lyon wrapped into bandages in another room since they didn't have any Senzu beans at the moment..
Even if they were doing their activities, their minds went towards the Saiyan who hadn't arrived back from his side-quest..
"Where are you Goku-kun? What's taking you so long.." thought the Re-quip mage quietly as she kept reading her book but couldn't concentrate as much. However, her prayers would be answered as she heard a familiar 'woosh' sound which meant he was back..
"Hey girls! Did I miss anything important?" asked Goku to the female mages in the meantime he was still carrying Ur in bridal style..
"Goku-kun, it's good that your back-" Erza couldn't finished her sentence as she noticed Goku carrying a women in such a suggestive way that it made her blush in embarrassment. However, that didn't stop the nasty sensation she was staring to feel all of the sudden.. "Who is that women and why Goku-kun carrying her like that.."
"G-Goku-kun who is that women that you carrying!?" asked Lucy with some jealousy in her tone voice, wondering who was this stranger that was being carried by her beloved and why it couldn't be her at this moment!
"Ah! this person is Ur Milkovich, Gray and Lyon's first master!" exclaimed the Saiyan casually to the girls meanwhile Ur waved at them coolly without looking at them, which made both Lucy and Erza get slightly irritated. Goku proceeds to explain how he was able to find her and return her back from her coma, this answer left the two girls stunned since it made them realized how selfless Goku was in this situation, he just felt that it was the correct thing to do..
It was one of the many traits that they loved about him..
"So what did I missed? I noticed that the Moon color is back to normal, but I still can sense the villagers energy still being the same so what happened?" asked the Saiyan God once again as he puts Ur down in the nearest couch, which made both Fairy Tail girls feel a bit more relieved meanwhile Ur just pouted that she wasn't being carried like a princess for longer..
"Let me explain Goku-kun.." spoke up Erza neutrally as she stares at the black-haired Saiyan "What happened was that Galuna Island was covered by an invisible barrier which made every citizen of this island to forget their memories, that led them to believe that they were human only in the mornings when in reality their demonic appearances are their true form. Thus, I came to the conclusion to destroy said barrier with Natsu to prove my theory right"
"Wow really? That's amazing!" exclaimed Goku with a grin on his face "I for sure wouldn't have come up to that conclusion so quickly Erza-chan, congratulations!"
"Please, don't give me all the credit.." said the red-haired girl somewhat shyly as she looks the sides to hide her small blush "It was thanks to that kick that you cut Deliora with that was able to give me solid clue. When the skies were split I notice how part of it was crack, which made me come to the conclusion that it was barrier covering the island.."
"But still, at the end you were responsible in truly accomplishing the S-Class mission..! So stand proud for that" said the Saiyan God to the Re-quip mage who just nodded with a smile at his comment "By the way, do you guys know where Gray and Lyon are? Or even Natsu and Happy"
"Natsu and Happy are sleeping in one the new rooms they gave us for succeeding in our mission, meanwhile Gray is helping Lyon cleaning all the dry blood from him and putting on bandages so he could heal since he didn't have a Senzu bean with him.." responded the Celestial mage towards his crush who began to scratch his head in embarrassment..
"Oh man, I totally forgot to give Lyon a Senzu bean hehehe.." said Goku with a nervous laugh as he then looks at Ur who was still sitting at the spot he let her rest "How about it Ur? Want to reunite with your students and have a talk with them?"
"Yeah, it's time that I reunited with those two knuckleheads.." responded Ur with a smile as she began to get up from the couch with some difficulties, but with the help of her Hero who was giving her an arm to rely on in case she falls, they began to make their way to the room where both Gray and Lyon were located..
When both Goku and Ur entered the room, they were met with a scene in where Lyon was complaining about Gray's method of wrapping someone with bandages, the Ice-maker responded back by saying to stop being such a baby. Although the scene was entertaining for both Saiyan and Ice-maker master they decide to reveal their presence..
"Hey guys! Look who I brought here with me!" said Goku out-loud as he got the attention of both Ice-makers who faces turned flabbergasted at seeing a person who they thought it was dead..
"Ur..." stated both Gray and Lyon with stunned expressions which made them not move from their spot. Ur who smiled softly slowly made her way towards her students and begins to hug them tightly..
"Gray Fullbuster and Lyon Vastia.. It has been a while hasn't?" said the Ice-maker master in soft tone of voice to her students, who each began to let tears flow down to their face from the overwhelming emotions they were feeling..
"Ur, I missed you so much.." responded Gray emotionally as he didn't bother to clean his tears even if Goku or Lyon were watching..
"I also missed you a lot Master..! I thought you had perished when you sealed Deliora..!" said Lyon out-loud with a teary expression
"I thought that as well, it was said that using Iced Shell it makes your entire being become Ice itself to seal someone. Fortunately that didn't happen and it give me the chance to see my two students all grown up.." commented Ur as she could also feel tears coming down her face as she kept hugging her students "I missed you both.."
The three Ice-maker users kept hugging for a good minute until they separated themselves for a moment, Gray stared at the Saiyan God in disbelief and began to ask..
"Goku.. How did you do it?" was the question that Gray asked in disbelief which made Goku start scratching behind his head..
"Let's just say that's one of the many wonders Ki can do!" responded Goku with a smile towards his student who wanted to ask more questions. However, Ur interrupted the moment by speaking up..
"By the way Lyon, I have something to give you.." stated Ur neutrally as she walked to where Lyon was standing..
"What is it Master?" asked the white-haired mage with curiosity since he wasn't expecting that his master had something for him. Unfortunately, that something was a slap on the face from Ur which shocked him to core. Even Goku and Gray's eyes went wide comically by this action since they didn't expect it coming "Ouch! What was that for Master! I'm still injured as you can see!"
"I don't care, you deserved that for being an idiot!" responded Ur fiercely towards Lyon who flinched back from her tone of voice "What made you think that reviving Deliora and fight him was a great idea!? You know how powerful he was and the danger it possessed to everyone, and yet you decided to risk your life in fighting it! You almost made my sacrifice be in vain!"
"I-I wanted to prove that I was more powerful than you Master.." replied Lyon weakly since he knew that answer wasn't going to be enough to convince her
"That's not the way to prove that you have surpassed me! Back then you were just a kid and you still are in some ways, you could've have died and what's worst is that you would have dragged down everyone close with you to their deaths! And that's not including the innocent lives that would have been lost as collateral damage!" explained the Ice-maker master in a disappointed but fierce tone of voice "You a lot to grow up for Lyon.."
"I-I'm sorry Master.." said the white-haired wizard as he bows down to Ur who had her arms crossed below her chest "I hope you could forgive me for being such foolish person, I never wanted your sacrifice to be in vain. What I truly wanted was for you to finally rest in peace after what you done for me, but it seems that I got too tunnel-vision to the point that I was pushing my allies and friends away, including Gray as well.."
Ur after hearing the speech from his former disciple couldn't help to just smile softly, that she began to approach the white-haired mage and knees down, followed by grabbing him by the shoulders
"Lyon it's alright. You made bad decisions in your life but that's normal, everyone makes mistakes including me. Back then you were still a kid and you still needed to complete your training. So I should be the one to blame for not completing your training and help you grow up properly. But now that you have this new opportunity, try to start anew with the friends that you have left and become something better! Try to join a guild like Gray did and become stronger that way, who knows you could find your next master like he did.." said Ur as she finished her speech towards Lyon who just stayed quiet this whole time, but also was stunned from hearing all those words of encouragement from his former Master..
"Master..." murmured Lyon as he began to tear up once again and quickly hugs her tightly "Thank you so much..! I will do what you just told me, making a new life without any sins or regrets holding me down I promise..!"
"Alright! Now that's out of the way we can go back to Fairy Tail and report back that our mission is done!" exclaimed Goku happily since everything was back to normal along with Ur reconciling with her old students
Before anyone could answer, the four individuals heard a knock coming from the door along with a familiar voice that spoke up from behind said door..
"Goku-kun! Gray! are you guys done talking? Moka-san just came by and wanted to invite us to a big feast along with the village as a gratitude for finishing the mission!" shouted Lucy behind the door, which got the full attention of the individuals on the room "Also Goku-kun, Erza said that she needed to give you the reward from completing the mission, she also added that you're in charge of spitting the reward and you don't need to worry about the Celestial Key because I already took it hehe.."
"Okay Lucy-chan! We'll be out there in a moment!" responded the Saiyan God out-loud as he directed his gaze towards everyone in the room with a excited expression "You guys heard that?! Moka-san is making a feast for everyone!"
"I already can tell you're excited for this Goku.." said Ur with a teasing smile to the Saiyan who just nodded innocently..
"Oh Ur.. You have no idea how Goku behaves when it comes to food" added Gray with a smirk on his face as he then moves his gaze towards the black-haired Saiyan "So we scrapping the idea of going back tonight to Fairy Tail?"
"Yep! Let's not make them wait any longer because I'm hungry!" responded Goku as he made his way to the door and opened for everyone to go through, Gray was the first one to go followed by Ur who was now walking a bit better than before without support. The only one that stayed still was Lyon which was noticed by the Saiyan God "What's wrong Lyon? aren't you coming?"
"No it just that Yuka, Sherry and Toby would have loved to join on this feast. It doesn't feel right for me to be the only one enjoying it meanwhile they others are either unconscious or arrested" explained Lyon as he looks down to the floor in shame. However, his attention was back towards Goku who touched his shoulder..
"Hey it's okay Lyon. To make you feel better I'll try to convince Moka-san to release your friends from prison, I'll also look for that guy with cat ears that Natsu fought so he's not left behind..!" responded Goku with a bright smile towards Lyon who was staring at him stunned..
"You really mean that..?" asked the white-haired mage softly to the Saiyan who nodded in respond "Thank you Son Goku.. From the bottom of my heart I'm in debt with you.."
"Come on don't say that! It's just the right thing to do in my point of view.." stated the Saiyan God with sincerity as he made his way to the door once "Also before I forget, eat this!"
The black-haired Saiyan then throws a green bean towards Lyon, who catches it with no problem and starts inspecting it with curiosity..
"What is this bean?" asked the Ice-maker with curiosity
"It's a Senzu bean, it's going to get you back into 100% along with your body completely healed!" responded Goku neutrally to Lyon who looks at it one more time and eats it, after swallowing it his eyes went wide along with his muscles slightly expanding before they went back to normal. This of course left the white-haired wizard stunned..
"Incredible.. I feel that my body and energies are back at 100%!" said Lyon enthusiastically as he began to remove his bandages which he didn't need anymore "Thank you Goku, I really mean what I said early so don't forget I'm in debt with you.."
"No problem, now that's out of the way let's head to that feast!" exclaimed Goku with excitement as he allowed Lyon to walk through the door first, followed by him after that. However, before Goku could close the door he stares at the window for a second and gives a quick grin before closing the door..
What the Saiyan God saw outside the window was a crystal ball floating, which belonged to a certain Time Arc mage who witnessed all the events transpired thanks to said crystal ball, as she was standing on a tree branch that was outside the Public Inn that the Fairy Tail mages were residing..
"Of course my Son-kun would be able to notice that I was spying on the conversation.." thought Ultear with a small smile, as she stared to recall the conversation that happened earlier in that room which made her face turned into a cold expression "I finally see you once again Mother, you haven't changed from the last time I saw you in the northern continent.. Just because you were forgiven by your students that doesn't mean I will, I'll make sure to judge you thoroughly by the time we met face to face and from there I'll decide your verdict.."
Not wanting to waste more time, Ultear uses a device to teleport herself away from Galuna Island, to where she would need to deliver the news to a certain blue-haired Councilmen about her mission..
What Ultear, Goku and other mages don't realized that by reviving Ur will be the beginning of the changes that will truly change Earthland forever..
And done! Holy shit this chapter took me almost a month to re-write and calling it that is unfair with how much changes and added scenes i added it. Good thing I don't have to write these long ass chapters for a while because next chapter will DEFINITIVELY be a shorter one!
With that out of the way let's go through some changes I made compared to the original chapter
1. The original chapter had only 8-9k words meanwhile this new one has 20k words which is crazy to me..
2. More added scenes that go in character depth for Lyon, Gray, Erza and Ur who barely had dialogue in the original chapter..
3. Gray by removing his weighted wristband is now at the level of a S-class mage. However that doesn't mean he has surpassed someone like Erza or Laxus yet, but he's getting really close..
4. More character interaction that makes the characters feel alive..
5. Goku interacting more with the Fairy Tail characters of course..
6. Right now Gray without the wristbands is stronger than Natsu when he used his Ki with his wristbands on in the last chapter..
7. Gray can use Full Contact Karate at it's fullest when he's not limited by the weights along with Ki..
8. Goku's Power Pole has evolved that is similar to Mori Jin's Nyoibo where he can expand or extend it..
