Please stop the war! 2

Teppei, Kuroneko, Kuzuha, Brandish, and August were having a tea party together.

August listened to the talk of Brandish as for Teppei, Kuroneko, and Kuzuha. Neither of them said anything about Zeref and only talked about the cakes, snacks, and teas that they had eaten and drank.

Still, August, who listened to Brandish's story, felt that everything she had told him was 100% true.

"August, you should know his Majesty's purpose is to invade the Fiore Kingdom, and the Fairy Tail is to get the One Magic, right?" Brandish said.

"Yes." August nodded and said, "You should know his Majesty's intention, right? He wants to protect everyone from Acknologia. You should know how strong Acnologia is. It is the strongest dragon in the world, and even his Majesty can't defeat it unless he gets his hand on the One Magic. That dragon is going to destroy our Empire. Are you going to stop his Majesty to protect and let everyone die?"

Brandish shook her head calmly and said, "His Majesty is lying. His true intention to get the One Magic isn't to defeat the Acnologia. Instead, he just wants to die. Also, August, do you know how His Majesty plans to die?"

August frowned, but then he asked, "How?"

"By using One Magic, he's going to master time and space magic, and he's going to use that magic to destroy this world to go to a world where he doesn't need to feel pain and can live with his loved one," Brandish said with a sigh and still felt unbelievable when she learned what Zeref planned to do with One Magic.

Zeref's purpose had never changed, and he just wanted to die, even if he had to sacrifice all the people in this world.

By using the One Magic, giving him an unlimited amount of magic, Zeref was going to destroy this world, so he could go to the world where he could gain his happiness.

Hearing Brandish's story, August felt angry. Yes, it was anger. He felt angry toward Zeref when he thought that Zeref planned to throw everything in this world, so Zeref could find his happiness.

Many people were unhappy, and many people had an unfortunate life, but if a strong person were unhappy, then he could even destroy the whole world.

It was so scary when someone thought about it.

Everyone was ignorant, thinking that his Majesty was doing something to protect everyone, but inwardly, he was thinking for himself, killing everyone mercilessly so he could get his happiness.

August wanted to hate Zeref, but he knew that he couldn't since Zeref was...

"...If we stop his Majesty, then what about Acnologia? I have seen that dragon before, but even I don't think that I can defeat it."

August had agreed with their plan to stop this war, but there was one big problem, and that was Acnologia. He knew how strong Acnologia was. Even his Majesty, Zeref, was unable to do anything against it, so what could they do about it?

"You don't need to worry too much about Acnologia. We'll handle that lizard," Teppei said with a smile.

"......" August looked at Teppei in silence, then asked, "Are you sure?"

"Yes." Teppei nodded without hesitation. In his mind, even though Acnolgia might be powerful compared to the enemy and the last villain that appeared in his world, this dragon was nothing. He believes that he could defeat this dragon.

August looked at Teppei and thought that he might need to rethink how strong Teppei was, and at the same time, he was also curious about how strong Teppei was. Still, there was a mixed feeling in his heart that made him think that he was stronger than Teppei. However, such a thought was normal since he also had his own pride as a Wizard King, and it was still a long way before a youngster like Teppei beat him.

Brandish bit the snack on her hand while looking at August nervously. Haru had told her that he was going to beat everyone, but she told him that she was going to negotiate with August since as long as August agreed then, the war would stop. Her relationship with August was the best after all when she was a child. He was the one who took care of her and taught her magic, so she had regarded him as her own grandpa.

"So, will you help to stop this war, grandpa?" Brandish asked again.

"As I said, I'm not your grandpa..." August said helplessly and then asked, "So what are you planning to do with his Majesty?"

When this question was thrown, everyone was in silence.

They knew well what was Zeref's wish and of course, they were going to realize his wish.

"We're planning to kill him," Teppei said calmly.

".........."

No one said anything. Even Brandish lowered her head and felt afraid to look at August.

"I see..." August let out a sigh before he stared at Teppei and said, "If you want to kill him, then you need to step over my body first."

"I see..." Teppei nodded, then said, "Then I'll stop you right here and now."

August and Teppei looked at the three girls and said, "You three, go now."

"........"

Kuroneko, Kuzuha, and Brandish looked at each other for a moment, then nodded.

"Don't kill August!" Brandish shouted before she left with Kuroneko and Kuzuha.

"Good grief, what a troublesome request. I need to ask Haru for compensation later," Teppei said with a tired sigh.

"Boy, do you think you can defeat me without even killing me?" August chuckled before he released all of his magic power, causing the space to tremble.

Brandish, Kuzuha, and Kuroneko, who had run far away as soon as possible, felt their bodies, bones, muscles, and everything tremble when they felt how strong August was.

"Dammit, I'm still weak!" Kuroneko was frustrated at how weak she was, compared to the main fighters of the Group Chat.

Kuzuha patted Kuroneko's shoulder and said, "You don't need to worry too much, you know."

"Still, is he really that strong? Can this guy handle grandpa?" Brandish asked.

"Of course!" 2x

Kuzuha and Kuroneko answered confidently at the same time. After all, they knew how strong Teppei was.

"Good grief..."

Teppei smiled in August and seemed unaffected by the pressure that was released by August. "What a monster. Still..." He caressed the scar that crossed over his right eye and smiled. "It's going to be a nice warm-up before the main battle later."
