Chapter 33

【Sure enough, listening to Igneel's words, Natsu's expression stiffened!】

【"Who... who said I was scared..."】

【He bit his lip tightly, his cheeks flushed red.】

【Watching Natsu's appearance, Igneel smiled.】

【A deep, resonant voice followed.】

【"That's good, Natsu. You must remember, you are my child, Igneel's child, the child of the Fire Dragon King!"】

【"A mere primeval forest should not be an obstacle for you. Go and conquer this forest!"】

【Despite his extreme reluctance, Natsu finally stepped onto the path toward the depths of the forest under Igneel's gaze.】

【His small figure gradually disappeared into the darkness.】

【Back at the spot, Igneel sighed softly.】

【Then he flapped his wings and soared into the sky!】

【Until he disappeared into the clouds.】

【Vaguely, one could see two enormous figures hidden within the heavy clouds.】

【"Metalicana, I'll leave the rest to you."】

【Igneel's voice rang out.】

Gajeel: "Wait!!! What was that name just now?"

Panther Lily: "It sounded like, Metalicana?"

Wendy: "Metalicana? The Iron Dragon? Could it be..."

Inside the Fairy Tail guild.

Gajeel's eyes widened, his gaze locked firmly onto the giant figures hidden within the clouds on the sky screen.

"Could it... really be him?"

Panther Lily: "Is it Gajeel's father?"

Charle: "To be precise, it should be the dragon that raised Gajeel."

Wendy: "Then, if that's the case, could the other massive figure be..."

The crowd's guesses were confirmed in the next moment.

【Within the heavy clouds, Metalicana responded.】

【"Leave it to me. If I don't scare that brat until he wets himself, I wouldn't be worthy of my title as the Iron Dragon!"】

【The giant wings flapped, and the heavy clouds dispersed.】

【The Iron Dragon revealed its majestic body at this moment!】

【"But, is this really okay? After all, they are still just children."】

The appearance of another female voice made Wendy's eyes in the Fairy Tail guild turn red instantly!

"This is... Grandeeney!"

【"Grandeeney, you are just too doting on Wendy."】

【Igneel's slightly helpless voice echoed.】

【The clouds gradually dispersed, and three giant dragons were flapping their wings, gathered here, while their gazes were locked onto the primeval forest below.】

Such a spectacular scene shocked almost all the viewers watching the sky screen!

Hades: "Good heavens... do that many giant dragons really exist?"
