Chapter 207: The Final Goodbye (3)

~Silva K. POV~

*Tmp*

*Tmp*

Stepping across the Capital City of the Alvarez Empire they finally allowed me access to the inside of the Empire building where there Emperor is located.

They all stood nervous as the gates leading inside finally opened.

*Sheeeee*

The radiating aura of Death Magic was intense inside as I stepped inside viewing the throne room with a big enough open room inside. So this is the big bad boss huh?

Not impressed.

Sitting on the throne was none other than Zeref the Black Wizard having his arm on his chin looking completely uninterested as he spoke in a polite tone, "Welcome strongest Mage Silva Knights. To what do I owe the pleasure of greeting?"

I smirked at the Black Wizard as I replied with his remaining guards stiffed at my words earning his attention, "Zeref Dragneel! I have come to bargain!"

His eyes hinted interest as he spoke in a curious tone analyzing me intently of my words, "You cause a stir and wish to bargain with me? You have my curiosity do tell me what I wish to bargain with you?"

Continuing to smirk once I reached a close enough distance, I revealed my offer causing a frown to form on his face, "Simple. I wish to bring you and Mavis what you seek in life. The wish to finally allow you both to pass to the afterlife or reincarnation."

His eyes narrowed as he responded with a cold shift in his tone directed at me as his remaining Spriggan member's eyes went wide at my claims, "…. Very bold claims young boy. Many have said so before you and what makes you the one to have any truth to your words."

My eyes linger at Zeref before revealing my key in the hole showing the Dragon Balls as Zeref's expression shifted in genuine surprise and disbelief. Guess he managed to sense the Magic Power contained within the jewels.

His figure trembles lightly analyzing the jewels in a new light asking me a question regarding the jewels in a cautious tone, "Incredible… those Lacrima's… the Magic Power within is unbelievable almost otherworldly even… Are these Magic Tools what makes you confident in your claims."

I nodded as I carefully explained to Zeref in a calm tone getting his attention and surprising the old mage, "Of course. These Magic Tools are named the Dragon Balls. An incredibly powerful wish-making device."

That caught his attention immediately pondering on my words in a fascinated tone, "Wish making… So, you plan to use these Magic Tools wishing us our freedom to pass on or reincarnate you say?"

I nodded explaining as I gestured for him to come outside just not to cause any property damage to the building, "But of course. But only the caster can receive the wishes. 3 in fact along with a password needed to summon the Eternal Dragon within these Jewels. Shall we do this outside your majesty?"

His eyes hinted at his curiosity about my Magic Tools but soon agreed to my words in a distant tone with me, "Very well. I wish to see these Dragon Balls in action. But aren't you forgetting about someone?"

I nodded agreeing to what he meant. Soon enough I see Mavis and August come forward as she mentioned in a saddened tone, "Where back! And… I see the time is nigh now, isn't it? Time for the final goodbye?"

Nodding with her I agreed. Soon I revealed Mavis's body encased inside the Revival Lacrima out of my <Requip > as Zeref's eyes widened seeing Mavis muttering in surprise, "Mavis Vermillion… to think I would see her again after all this time huh…"

Soon I brought out my katana and I used <Spatial Slash> cutting her out of the 'space' of her cage as it shattered into a million pieces revealing Mavis's figure falling…

*Thud*

Hitting on the ground Mavis moans in pain at me not catching her groaning out loud, "Ow…. You could've been a bit nice not to leave a girl hanging… ah my head…"

I expressed in a deadpan tone to match misses' death touch-sama holding the Dragon Balls in my hands, "Sure… but it's not like I would die touching you with the curse you know? Just a safety precaution emergency snack."

She pouted glaring at me as I conjured a magic circle to contain their curses just in case in an annoyed tone, "Still gonna call me that to the bitter end, aren't you?"

I stuck my tongue easily agreeing with her as I began to work my magic on the Dragon Balls, "Yup! One last annoyance before you hit it off on the road."

Placing the Dragon Balls at the center I began to mess around a bit trying to call Shenron, "Now behold and be amazed by what you witness here folks… Hey Dragon wake the fuck up it's already past noon get your life together!"

*THUD*

I turned around to see the Spriggan 12 members fall onto the ground as Zeref expresses a deadpan look asking Mavis a question, "Is he always like this?"

Mavis nervously replied in a defeated tone looking away from me and him, "Hehehe… you get used to it."

August and Zeref nodded as her husband replied curtly nodding in pity directed at her, "You have my sympathy."

I can hear that.

But shaking my head I returned to in a serious tone speaking out the real incantation to activate the Dragon Balls, "Alright I get the point already. Now for real then. Ahem! Eternal Dragon. By Your name, I summon you forth, Shenron!"

*PEW*

*RUMBBLE*

*RUMBBLE*

*CRACK*

Uttering the words out loud the sky turned black the entire planet shook responding to the words as the jewels of the Dragon Balls suddenly skyrocketed into the sky. When Shenron is summoned, the sky becomes pitch dark, even during daytime. Once he disappears, the sky returns to normal.

Thunder began to crackle down onto the land witnessing the change as the balls soon turned into beams of light encasing the world each filled with immense Magic Power that made me shudder recognizing this power before…

Being X… Jack Nights real power. I know for sure I'm only catching or sensing a small portion of his power but… by this much?

Only a minor fraction has enough to cause natural disasters of his power. That's honestly crazy as it is scary to comprehend all of this in real time. But it makes sense to me that he should at least be this crazy strong to create Shenron.

But when everything had been said and done the giant Chinese dragon appeared giving off a majestic feeling by being near his presence. Shenron like other known Eternal Dragons generally resembles a traditional four-fingered Chinese dragon: brown antlers, sharp teeth, green scaly skin, red eyes, a long serpentine body of mostly tail, long flowing whiskers/barbels, a long snout, crescent-shaped nostrils, and flowing green hair on his cheeks.

Shenron emerged as if governing the world with how gigantic it was as everyone's eyes widened with the Dragon finally announcing himself for all to hear in a deep mighty tone, "YOU HAVE DISTURBED ME OF MY SLUMBER. SPEAK AND NAME YOUR FIRST WISH FOR I SHALL GRANT YOU 3 WISHES."

My eyes gazed at Zeref and Mavis as their eyes widened witnessing Shenron for the first time as the Black Wizard responded in awe, "To think such a creature like this exists in this world. Even Acnologia would be no match against this… Eternal Dragon. Such a mighty and scary being in this world."

Mavis had the same thoughts as she looked at Silva with a sad smile on her face as the black miasma from her body reacted with the Curse and started to activate, "Silva… it's time for us to go. Please do it. And… thanks for one final adventure."

I smiled as tears streamed down wiping my face and turning my attention to Shenron giving him my first wish in a serious tone, "Shenron for my first wish I want you to allow Mavis Vermillion and Zeref Dragneel to finally pass onto the afterlife destroying the curse passed down to them granting them their final rest with no repercussions!"

The reason I said no repercussions in my wish is to ensure Natsu doesn't die. That means any demon of Zeref that was created is currently freed from their imprisonment and control from him meaning all would be safe.

I say it worked seeing two of the Spriggan 12 members didn't blink out of existence or die. So my wish worked the way I intended to.

*Ping*

His eyes glowed bright red as he replied in a deep majestic tone, "YOUR FIRST WISH HAS BEEN GRANTED!"

*Shiiii*

Mavis and Zeref's bodies both began to dematerialize particles of magic with Zeref responding in shock and disbelief, "The Curse… it's finally broken. The curse is finally over, and we'll finally be able to move on…"

Mavis nods her head grasping his hand and smiling contently as she turns to my gaze thanking me one final time, "Yes Zeref. This time I think we both lived far too long. Time for us to finally depart this world and Silva…"

She tilted her head cutely tears rolling down as they both finally began to move onto the afterlife smiling contently, "Thank you for granting me my wish. I hope you continue to be a good person and kind soul. And remember Magic is a gift, not a tool. Be close to those you love and cherish them deeply for as long as you live. After all, the true Magic comes from love. Never forget my final piece of advice my precious student."

*Sheeeee*

Giving me her last piece of wisdom the two finally departed as August held back the tears muttering in contently, "I see that both of them finally passed… perhaps one day I'll get to see them in the next life or after. Now then… what do you intend to do with your last two wishes young man?"

Gazing at me the rest of the Spriggan 12 are wondering that as well turning around granting my second wish immediately, "Shenron for my second wish I want you to remove the Magic Cancer from Natsu Dragneel and curse Irene of her Dragonization returning her into a human!"

*Ping*

His eyes shined as Irene's body glowed a brilliant red hue in surprise touching herself as Shenron responded, "YOU SECOND WISH HAS BEEN GRANTED! STATE YOUR THIRD AND FINAL WISH!"

Irene's eyes gestured towards me in genuine shock as I replied innocently of the reason I gave to her, "What's with that look for? I did say I was going to marry your daughter, but it would be great if she finally met you with you know not being a crazy bitch."

Her eyes twitched at my response since she couldn't utter any words as I went to accomplish the final wish ensuring its erasure from the world. I finally spoke causing everyone to look at me weirdly, "For my final wish I wish for the smut novel Ninja's of Love to be wiped from existence –"

But I got interrupted by the blasted dragon causing me to spit out blood instead, "THAT'S BEYOND MY POWER. PLEASE STATE ANOTHER WISH."

Oi! What the hell is beyond your power you oversized gecko?!!

I couldn't help but instead argue with the oversized dragon in complete disbelief as did the rest of the Spriggan 12 on this matter, "Oi! What the fuck do you mean it's beyond your – you managed to surpass the God of Life and Death power returning my Sensei and lover into the afterlife, but you can't fucking erase a smut book?!! WHAT THE HELL!!!!"

Shenron merely replied in a grumpy tone glaring at me intently his reasonings, "IT'S BEYOND MY POWER TO DESTROY MY CREATOR'S WORK. NOR WILL I GET ERASED FROM HIM DOING IT. SELF PRESERVATION YOU KNOW. NOW STATE YOUR LAST WISH AS YOU ARE TESTING MY PAITENCE…"

Yikes… Sigh…

Sighing I told him my last wish in a serious tone preparing for my final battle against Acnologia once and for all, "Sigh… in that case, for my last wish I wish for you to send me where the Black Dragon Acnologia is right now."

*Ping*

Before being suddenly teleported away I made sure to store the Dragon Balls before they departed with Shenron muttering as I teleported away, "YOU FINAL WISH HAS BEEN GRANTED. NOW BEGONE."

*Pew*

[Dragon Balls have returned to stone and won't return till 365 days have passed!]

Like that, I was teleported away soon going to my destination. My final opponent in this world. Then I can finally relax and chill with the gang.
