Chapter 168

【Even if the world changed because of the gale stirred by him, this butterfly, at least, the future proved that in this event, there must have been some way to pass through safely.】

【As long as he calmed down and found this method, he could protect everyone.】

【Therefore, instead of being as flustered as Irene, it was better to calm down and think about countermeasures.】

【Irene also understood Black Natsu's intention.】

【She took a deep breath and nodded gently.】

【"No matter what, we must be prepared."】

【"First is to evacuate the crowd, and then gather the troops, etc..."】

【Black Natsu nodded, then watched Irene leave.】

【Just after opening the door, Irene saw the group standing in front.】

【"You... are?"】

【Kyoka: "Lady Irene, these few are the King's friends, members of the Black Mage Guild, Fairy Tail."】

【"Fairy Tail?" Irene's gaze immediately locked onto Mavis.】

【Looking at the little loli in front of her, Irene didn't know why, but she always felt a sense of crisis lingering.】

【She frowned and shook her head, throwing these messy things to the back of her mind, and Irene then said.】

【"I know, you take them inside to find the King; I must go and arrange the various matters in the empire."】

【Kyoka's body bent slightly.】

【"I understand."】

【After giving instructions, Irene hurried away toward the conference room.】

【Soon, under Kyoka's leadership, the group arrived inside the laboratory.】

【Yuri, Precht, and Warrod were curiously examining everything that exceeded their cognition.】

【Yuri's shocked voice was constantly coming out.】

【"What is this? A funnel? It even has things inside."】

【"And what is this machine that looks like an arm? Could it be a mechanical arm?"】

【And this...】

【A drop of sweat seeped out on Warrod's forehead.】

【"With you like this, how dare you talk about the Guild Master outside just now?"】

【"Aren't you clearly like this yourself?"】

【Mavis, who was walking at the very front, nodded her little head in agreement.】

【"That's right, that's right, you are clearly the same, yet you talk about me?"】

【Yuri: "What do you guys know, machinery and magic, and new things, these are the romance of men."】

【Just when the few were still bickering, Mavis at the very front saw Black Natsu standing at the edge of the window, watching the specific situation of the nursery outside the window.】

【Immediately, Mavis beamed and quickened her pace.】

【Running toward Black Natsu, then stepping on her toes, she jumped onto Black Natsu's back and said loudly with a smile.】

【"Master!!!"】

【"We are here to help you!!"】

【...】

【"What??"】

【Inside the Imperial Conference Room, Irene slammed the table, and her whole person stood up from her seat.】

【Her eyes were filled with disbelief.】

【"You mean, those guys are launching an attack on us??"】

【The soldier who was asked nodded hurriedly.】

【"Yes, Queen, from the moment that pillar of light shot into the sky!"】

【"What a bunch of damn guys! Do they really think we are easy to handle??"】

【Irene's brows were tightly furrowed.】

【Anger was constantly surging up.】

【"They come to attack us in full force at this time node? Are these guys not afraid of Acnologia?"】

【No one could answer Irene's words, but she herself had reached the answer.】

【They were definitely afraid, but the key point was that these guys didn't know about this at all.】

【Otherwise, thinking about having to face Acnologia, they would have run away long ago.】

【"What a bunch of damn guys, since you are unrighteous... then don't blame me for being heartless!"】

【"Anyway, it's already exposed, there's no point in hiding those powers anymore..."】

【Speaking of this, Irene looked at the soldier who just reported.】

【"Notify everyone to be prepared to meet the enemy."】

【"Various magic devices in the strategic arsenal can be mobilized at will, and even the dragons, let them be prepared; this time... we are going to get serious!"】

【Irene's fists were clenched tightly.】

【Irene, who was already very angry, became even more furious at this moment.】

【"A bunch of guys who don't know what's good for them, this time I will let the people of the whole world know that my Galaxy Empire is not something anyone can pinch just because they want to!"】

【Inside the laboratory.】

【Looking at Mavis hanging on his neck like a koala.】

【Black Natsu's expression was a bit helpless.】

【He put her down, turned around, and looked at Mavis seriously.】

【"Why are you here now? It's already chaotic enough here, it's very dangerous."】

【"It's precisely because we know it's dangerous that we came!"】

【Mavis looked directly into Black Natsu's eyes, her tone without the slightest retreat.】

【"We all know, you are the King of the Galaxy Empire, and currently the whole continent is crusading against you, but... so what?"】

【Yuri also nodded: "Although, our current strength is not too strong, but, we can still be of use in this battle, right?"】

【As he spoke, he proudly raised his arm and showed off his muscles.】

【"At any rate, we are the mages of the newly entered guild, Fairy Tail!"】

【Mages of Fairy Tail... what familiar words.】

【However...】

【Black Natsu sighed softly.】

【"The current situation has exceeded the limit you can imagine."】

【"In front of that kind of guy, this sentence doesn't work anymore."】

【"That kind of guy?" Mavis looked at Black Natsu in confusion.】

【"Who else can make Master feel tricky?"】

【Black Natsu didn't have the need to hide it.】

【"Acnologia!"】

【Once these words were spoken! Mavis's eyes widened instantly!】

【"Acnologia??!!"】

【Precht's mouth also opened rarely, and unspeakable shock filled that single eye.】

【"The Black Dragon in the Apocalypse?? That thing... really exists??"】

【Warrod couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.】

【"Hey, hey, hey... that is said to be the terrifying existence that destroyed the dragon race single-handedly!"】

【Yuri looked at Black Natsu incredibly.】

【Stammering, he asked: "Mas... Master... what on earth did you guys do to get involved with such an existence??"】

【Black Natsu shrugged his shoulders: "Specific matters can't be explained in a while, but what is certain is that Acnologia will appear with a ninety-nine percent probability."】

【"Ninety-nine percent??"】

【The corners of Yuri's mouth couldn't stop twitching.】
