Chapter 451

【The group was scattered.】

【Each faced their own enemy.】

【Natsu's side successfully dealt with his opponent.】

【And chased all the way to the direction of the ruins.】

【As for the other side, Lucy and Happy finally managed to defeat the woman named Sherry.】

【But they immediately encountered an attack from Sherry's pet, that giant rat from before.】

【At the critical moment, Erza appeared and took down the giant rat with one sword strike.】

【And grabbed Lucy and Happy directly.】

【No way, an angry Erza is just that terrifying.】

【The spineless Happy immediately knelt down to beg for mercy and gave up Gray's location.】

【Soon, Erza and her group found the battered Gray.】

【Erza, who originally wanted to wait for Natsu to return and take this group away, encountered Gray's resistance.】

【That determination to stop Lyon even if it meant death made Erza finally compromise, and she decided to complete this mission with everyone.】

【And immediately set off toward the ruins.】

【At the same time, Natsu was causing destruction everywhere in the ruins.】

【I have to say, in this regard, Natsu can proudly say that he is a professional.】

【Relying on a series of destructive means, he even caused the ruins to tilt, resulting in the moonlight no longer being able to shine on Deliora.】

【This action naturally attracted Lyon's attention.】

【Thus, the battle between Natsu and Lyon unfolded again.】

【Just at this moment, Gray, under the cover of Erza and the others, broke through the heavy encirclement and returned to the battlefield, intending to have a real showdown with Lyon.】

【At the same time, the ruins that had originally tilted strangely restored themselves.】

【The moonlight shone on Deliora once again.】

【Noticing this, Natsu quickly locked his gaze on the inconspicuous little old man beside Lyon.】

【From his conversation with Lyon, it could be known that the restoration of the ruins was this guy's masterpiece.】

【And he was also responsible for carrying out the Moon Drip ritual, so Natsu unhesitatingly aimed his spear at this strange old man.】

【The two fought again during the chase.】

【The scene was very chaotic.】

【But in the end, they both won this time.】

【Whether it was Gray or Natsu, both achieved victory.】

【But, the Moon Drip ritual had already reached its end.】

【Deliora was completely unsealed at this moment.】

【A deafening roar resounded throughout the island.】

【Looking at the resurrected terrifying monster, Gray couldn't help but recall the fear he had once faced.】

【Thus, he made the same decision as his Master.】

【He intended to use Absolute Ice to completely seal Deliora.】

【But, Natsu, who valued his companions immensely, did not intend to let Gray die.】

【Thus, he actively rushed toward Deliora.】

【One punch!】

【Deliora shattered instantly!】

【Until this moment, everyone knew that Deliora's life had long since been worn away inside the ice, and what was displayed now was merely its final appearance before death.】

【The darkness in Gray's heart was completely eliminated.】

【Eliminated by Ur with her life.】

【Watching this scene, Gray burst into tears, but regardless, the Deliora matter finally came to an end.】

【However, the curse was not lifted.】

【Natsu and the others were dumbfounded by this, unable to understand why the curse still existed even though Deliora was already dead.】

【Fortunately, Erza arrived this time.】

【After a brief understanding of the island, Erza immediately proved to Natsu, Gray, and the others what S-Class truly meant.】

【Powerful reasoning and analytical skills allowed Erza to find the true cause of the curse in a short time.】

【In fact, there was no one on the island at all!】

【They were all demons; it was just that the evil membrane produced by the Moon Drip affected the memories of all the demons present, which led to them mistakenly believing they were humans.】

【Moreover, unexpectedly, these demons were not evil, but kind.】

【When the evil membrane was shattered, the memories of all the demons were restored, and everything settled down.】

【That night, Natsu and the others held a joyful banquet with the demons.】

【The next day, Erza was going to take the few of them back to the guild to accept punishment.】

【Just returned to Magnolia.】

【They immediately discovered that the guild had been destroyed?】

【The white-bordered screen ends here.】

【In contrast, the black-bordered screen gradually lights up.】
