115 End in an instant

Kageyama, who had escaped, had arrived at the location where a group of guildmasters did their annual meeting. His breath was very heavy and he was very tired, but he sighed in relief when he saw the meeting hadn't ended yet.

Kageyama stepped down from the car and looked from the distance. His distance wasn't that close from the meeting location, but from this distance, the Lullaby should reach them without trouble.

Kageyama smiled, but at the same time, he felt quite uncomfortable, however, he quickly decided to do this as soon as possible.

When Kageyama was about to play the Lullaby, his shoulder was tapped which caused him to turn his head in hurry, however, he was startled when his cheek was poked since he didn't realize that someone suddenly appeared behind him.

"Wha?!"

"Fu Hya Hya Hya..."

Makarov laughed very hard while sitting on the top of the car, but then he coughed very hard since he laughed too hard. He also started to get worried when he thought about Erza, Natsu, and Gray since he knew very well that if the three of them were together, then trouble would come without hesitation and worse case, one or two towns would be smashed into smirteens. He sighed and quickly calmed himself looking at the young man in front of him who was being covered by a bandage.

"You should go back to the hospital," Makarov said before leaving since he could see that Kageyama was wounded and Kageyama was in very bad condition.

Kageyama was full of sweat when he saw Makarov since he knew him very well. He cursed his luck, but then he thought about gambling. "Um.."

"What's wrong?" Makarov stopped and asked.

"Will you.. listen to one song? The hospital won't let me play it," Kageyama said while holding a Lullaby in his hands.

"....."

Makarov was silent while staring at Kageyama.

Kageyama was full of sweat and didn't give up. "But I really want someone to listen to it."

"That's a creepy flute."

Makarov commented since the shape of Lullaby was very creepy and ugly.

"It may seem so, but the sound is pretty decent."

"I'm in a hurry so I can only hear one song," Makarov said.

"Sure."

Kageyama hung his head down, but his mouth smiled widely, thinking that he had won.

"Please listen to it carefully..."

When Kageyama was about to play, he started to have a flashback about his life. He was full of sweat and started to doubt his life, wondering whether he should really play this flute.

Makarov didn't say anything and kept staring at Kageyama.

Both of them stood still without doing anything.

It was at this moment, Erza, Gray, Natsu, Lucy, and Happy came and found Kageyama. They were about to catch him, but they were stopped by Bob who was hiding, watching the interaction of Kageyama and Makarov.

"Oh my, you're so cute," Bob said while looking at Natsu and Gray which caused both of them to shudder.

Their interaction didn't disturb both Makarov and Kageyama who were still in their silent confrontation.

"What's going on? Hurry up already?" Makarov said.

However, Kageyama couldn't blow the flute, especially when he was being pressured by Makarov.

Makarov then started to preach to Kageyama about the importance of "Nakama" and guild. He told him why everyone who was weak gathered together to be able to help each other.

Then Kageyama broke down and started to cry, dropping the Lullaby on his hands to the ground.

"I admit my loss."

Kageyama bowed down in front of Makarov, telling his submission and lost.

"Master!"

"Jicchan!"

"Jii-san!"

Gray, Natsu, and Erza were very happy when Makarov had successfully subdued Kageyama by preaching to him and they were also amazed by Makarov's words about friendship, guild, and "Nakama".

However, it was at this moment, the Lullaby which was dropped on the ground started to emit a purple smoke and suddenly a creepy voice could be heard from the flute.

"Ka ka ka... You magicians have no guts."

"..."

Everyone was stunned when they saw the flute could talk on its own.

"I can't hold it any longer. I'll eat all of you all myself!"

Lucy and Happy hugged together and they were both shocked and scared by the scene which happened in front of them.

"Let me consume your pitiful souls..."

The smoke which emitted from the flute started to form into the shape of an extremely tall beast that had three eyes, two legs, two arms and one head.

"MONSTER!!!!"

Everyone was shocked when they saw the monster in front of them!

"Wh - What is that?! I - I didn't about this?!" Kageyama was scared.

Bob was pale and covered his mouth with his hand. "Oh my.. this is bad.."

"It's the devil from the book of Zeref!"

Lullaby stared at the group of magicians and said, "I'm starving to death. So I'm going to eat your souls."

"What?!"

Natsu was shocked then asked, "Is soul edible? Does it taste good?"

"How should I know?!"

Lucy felt Natsu was stupid, but then she knew that it wasn't the time to comment on Natsu's remark since her entire body trembled because of the monster in front of her.

"Wh - What is this? How could a devil come out from the flute?"

"That devil is the Lullaby itself. Meaning, it's "Living Magic". That's Zeref's magic."

When everyone was confused, Lullaby opened its mouth and fired a magical beam from its mouth.

"......."

*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM!!!!*

Everyone sweated professionally and couldn't move their bodies since Lullaby's attack was enough to destroy an entire mountain in a single shot.

Lullaby stared at every single magician in this place and said, "Now, who should I enjoy first?"

Everyone was silent and their entire bodies trembled.

"I have decided."

Lullaby smiled and said, "All of yours.." It opened its mouth again and it started to emit a creepy aura from its mouth that tried to grab the soul of everyone in this place.

However, Gray, Natsu, and Erza wouldn't let that happen and would stop the Lullaby no matter what!

The three of them were about to move to attack the Lullaby at the same time, but...

"Ice Make: Gae Bolg!"

It was only for a moment, but then everyone could feel the temperature of their surroundings starting to decrease dramatically and something very fast, stabbing the chest of the Lullaby!

"Ugh!"

Lullaby wasn't sure what had happened, but it could feel the pain on its chest was real. He was about to say something, but the ice started to crept before it froze its entire body!

"Wh - What's happening?!"

Lucy felt very cold at this moment and directly summoned her Celestial Spirit to protect her from this cold.

Natsu was annoyed by this cold and asked, "Who is this?!"

Erza and Makarov didn't say anything, but they could tell who had casted this magic, especially after they saw a luxurious aircraft which was about to descend.

As the aircraft descended, the Lullaby, which was frozen, started to crumble into ice dust before being blown away by the wind.

"....."

Everyone was in shock at how easy it was for this person to defeat Lullaby.

"Bourne-chan. You're late!" Bob complained and pouted.

"There's some trouble on my way earlier, Master Bob."

Then four figures came out from the aircraft, three were beautiful women and one handsome young man, but everyone didn't stare at the women, but rather at the young man since this young man had an unique temperament which made everyone's attention was attract to himself.

"But the meeting hasn't ended, right?"
