Acnologia withdrew her senses. Originally, Ulu's soul had turned into ice, and then it was shattered and fell into the sea. As for whether she died or not, she probably did.
However, he has now attached Ulu's soul to Eileen's magic wand and sealed it away for the time being. He will figure out a way to give it a normal human body later.
After exchanging a few words with Irene, Acnologia entered seclusion again. When he awakens, his soul will be stronger than his physical body.
Eileen looked at the silent Acnologia with a mischievous grin, and quickly carried him onto the bed.
This bad man always likes to be on top; now it's her turn to ride!
As for what he said before about not doing anything...
Hey, how can you take a woman's words seriously?
The wheels of time continued to turn, and the date arrived at July 7th, X777.
On this day, Eileen pushed open the door, and the sunlight shone on her cheeks, revealing a rosy glow.
She turned to look at the naked man sprawled on the bed, a smile playing on her lips. She extended a slender finger and gently touched her red lips: "You naughty man, wait for me to come home!"
After saying that, she gently closed the door, looked up at the sky, transformed into a streak of crimson light, and disappeared into the horizon in the blink of an eye.
...
The sky was dark at this moment, and the sun was gradually being obscured.
A dignified blonde woman walked to the Eclipse Gate, holding a book in her hand, and murmured softly: "According to the records left by our ancestors, the gate will open in an era of abundant magic, allowing people from the past to come to the present. The day of the Eclipse is today."
"Opening the gate requires the twelve keys of the zodiac, the only problem is that the key to Aquarius is in the hands of Grame. And she has gone to the Western Continent and has not returned yet, so I can only use my magic and life force to replenish it."
Leila Heartfilia smiled: "The Eclipse Gate mission can end with me. My children no longer need to persevere and can freely choose their own lives."
With a wave of her hand, eleven golden keys flew into the sky, swirling and radiating brilliant light, illuminating the entire sky.
"Open, Gate of Eclipse!"
With a call, the long-sealed metal door rumbled, and a dazzling ray of light burst forth from the crack in the door.
However, with only eleven keys to the zodiac, there is a lack of follow-up.
"It really won't work..."
Leila Heartfilia sighed softly, stretched out her hands and placed them on the Gate of Eclipse, her magical power surging throughout her body.
As one of the top Celestial Mages of our time, she could easily be rated as a Saint-level 10. At this moment, golden magic burst forth, surging endlessly into the Eclipse Gate.
Although it was still not enough, she was already prepared; what followed was her vitality.
However, at that moment, a clear, cold voice rang in her ear.
"Add magic!"
boom!
An incredibly terrifying magical power surged into her body, flowing endlessly and without ceasing.
She was horrified. What terrifying magic was this? Who was helping her?
At least at the level of the Four Heavenly Kings of Ishgar!
But now was not the time to think about such things. She unleashed her magic once more, this time so intense that it changed the color of the sky and earth, and dimmed the sun and moon.
A heavy rumbling sound rang out, and the Gate of Eclipse was finally fully opened!
Leila looked at the long-haired woman with crimson hair who had suddenly appeared beside her, her face showing gratitude: "Thank you for your help just now, otherwise I might have had to use my life force to make up for it."
The woman with long, scarlet hair was none other than Eileen!
"I should be thanking your family!"
Eileen suppressed her excitement and looked at the gate that was radiating white light.
Leila was puzzled, but before she could say anything, a blonde woman with a ponytail came out with six children. Then the six children turned into streaks of light and flew into the sky.
"Um?"
Eileen's gaze sharpened as she sensed her daughter's presence, and she instantly transformed into a streak of light to pursue her.
After everyone had come out, the eclipse gate slowly closed, and the key to the zodiac returned to Leila's hands.
Leila looked at the woman who resembled her by about 70% and asked in confusion, "Who are you?"
"Anna Heartfilia".
Leila was startled: "You are our ancestor Anna?"
She hurriedly handed the books and eleven golden keys to Anna, saying, "I am your successor. Today, I am opening the Gate of Eclipse in an era of abundant magic, just as you instructed me to do."
Anna saw that there were only eleven keys, then looked at Leila and asked in confusion, "With only eleven keys, how did you open the Eclipse Gate?"
Are all the younger generation's magic powers this strong? They can open doors without even collecting all the keys?
Leila explained where the key was, and then said, "Thanks to that scarlet-haired mage just now, if it weren't for her, I would have already used my life force to open the door."
Anna just saw that woman with long scarlet hair, who looked remarkably like Queen Irene, who had entrusted little Erza to her.
Could they be other descendants of Queen Irene?
She didn't consider that Eileen had lived all this time; in her mind, only dragons and Zeref had such long lifespans.
Anna looked slightly apologetic: "Thank you so much!"
For her, it was a matter of a blink of an eye, but for the younger generation, it meant a lifetime of dedication.
Leila smiled and said, "You don't need to blame yourself. It's all over now. Thanks to you building the family, we younger generations haven't suffered much."
She didn't blame her ancestors. From their records, she could clearly see how terrible that era was, a time of living to die, and everyone was searching for a way to end the war.
Anna asked, "What year is it now? Has the war between humans and dragons ended?"
She sensed no dragon's presence, and the scene before her was peaceful, a far cry from her own time, with an astonishing abundance of magic.
Leila said, "It is now July 7th, X777. The war between humans and dragons ended four hundred years ago, which should be shortly after you opened the Gate of Eclipse."
"At that time, seventy percent of the human race was killed by the evil dragons. In the last moment, Acnologia and Queen Irene fought their way through the dragon horde and wiped out all the evil dragons. However, due to the extreme brutality of the war, the human race in Ishgar was almost wiped out."
"After Acnologia and Queen Irene disappeared, it took the human race several decades to slowly recover."
Their family has continued for four hundred years, so there are naturally detailed historical records.
After listening to her story, Anna pondered and said, "So, Acnologia and Queen Irene were the saviors of that time?"
Leila nodded hesitantly: "Perhaps, but Acnologia went mad for a while, not only exterminating the dragons but also sparing the human race. And that kind of horrific war, which caused the heavens and earth to collapse, made ordinary people too insignificant to distinguish between good and evil."
"Apart from the Kingdom of Fiore, which has always recorded Acnologia as a hero, other kingdoms have mixed opinions about Acnologia and Queen Irene, ultimately bestowing upon them the titles of World Destroyer Dragon King and Scarlet Despair."
"However, I believe their merits outweigh their demerits, because they ultimately saved the world. Without them, we would not have our peaceful future!"
