"ah?"
Having no knowledge of the magical world, Jude looked somewhat bewildered after hearing what Id said, as if he couldn't quite understand.
What about "Nine Heavenly Kings of the Ishgar Continent"?! He couldn't understand a word of it.
If Id asked him which kingdom on the continent of Ishgar he planned to build a railway in, or to speculate on land or develop real estate, he could give a few answers.
As for those who could understand what Id was saying, they were frozen in place by Id and would probably have to stand in the sun for more than an hour before they could fully recover their mobility.
Uh.
Of course, Leila could understand what Id was saying. She said with slight shock, "The Eight Heavenly Kings of the Ishgar Continent?"
"In the years I've been out of the magical world, so many powerful figures have emerged on the continent?"
Leila's expression was filled with emotion. She still remembered when she was first pregnant, only those who ranked among the top four of the Ten Great Archmages could be called "Heavenly Kings". She never expected that after ten years, powerful figures would emerge like bamboo shoots after a spring rain.
"yes."
"We've also established an organization called the 'Heavenly Kings' Conference to invite all mages across the continent who have entered the 'non-human' realm to meet at the beginning and end of each year within the Fairy Tail Mage Guild to exchange their insights and experiences in cultivation."
Id gently led the way and told Leila about the information regarding the "God's Council".
"A 'Heavenly King's Conference' that invites all mages across the continent who have entered the non-human realm to exchange their insights and experiences in cultivation?!"
Leila's eyes lit up. As a mage in the "non-human" realm, she naturally hoped to exchange ideas with other powerful individuals of the same level.
It's important to understand that back when Leila hadn't yet faded from the magical world, there simply wasn't a platform like it is today in the vast world of Ishgar, where "Heavenly King" level mages could exchange their insights and experiences.
"Um.
""
The ultimate goal of our "Heavenly Kings" council is to guide all mages training on the continent of Ishgar on the correct path of their respective magical cultivation.
Idris continued.
"To guide all the mages of the continent on the correct path of demonic cultivation?!"
Leila's eyes lit up again. Since returning to her family and fading out of the magical world, this was the first time she had felt so excited about anything related to the magical world.
"So, Mrs. Leila."
"Please allow me, as a member of the 'Heavenly King' meeting, to extend this invitation to you."
"We hope you can join us and do your part for all the mages living on the continent of Ishgar."
At this point, Id finally extended an olive branch to Rei, inviting her to join the "Heavenly Kings of the Ishgar Continent" meeting.
"I'll think about it."
Leila did not give Id a direct answer, although she was extremely excited about the "Heavenly King" meeting that Id had mentioned.
But compared to the controversies of the magical world, for Leila at the moment, Jude and Lucy are more important.
"it is good."
I look forward to your reply.
Id didn't insist. He smiled slightly and nodded.
"Oh, right, there's one more thing."
After inviting Leila to join the "Uranus" meeting, Ide seemed to remember something. His gaze was fixed on the twelve Zodiac Celestial Keys surrounding Leila, and he asked curiously, "Your Excellency Leila, if I may be so bold as to ask, what is the purpose of your going to such lengths to collect the Zodiac Celestial Keys?"
"Of course, if it's inconvenient for you to answer this question, then you don't need to explain it to me."
After Id asked Leila his question, he immediately added a comment.
Then, Ide explained to Leila why he asked her this question: "According to the rules of our Archmage Guild, we should not inquire about any information about our employers. I was just curious about why you collected the Zodiac Astral Keys."
"Um."
"This is not some kind of secret."
"Please wait here for a moment, I'll go get something to show you."
After thinking for a moment, Leila settled Id in the reception room and then went back to her bedroom. From the bookshelf, she carefully took out the diary that had been passed down through generations of her Heartfilia family.
"Id, you should understand after you see this."
After retrieving the diary left behind by the ancestors of the Heartfilia family, Leila returned to the reception room and handed it to Id.
"To the descendants born in an age of abundant magic, when the sun and moon meet, please use the twelve keys to open the door."
Ide took the Heartfilia family's heirloom diary from Leila's hands. Looking at the line written on the cover, he immediately understood and smiled, "So, Lady Leila believes that this is the era of abundant magic that your ancestor spoke of?"
"Uh, this."
"Actually, I don't know either whether this is the era of abundant magic that our ancestors spoke of. It's all just my guess."
"I have a premonition that the era of abundant magic that my ancestors spoke of is now."
Leila said with a smile.
"You guessed?"
Ide was slightly taken aback.
Is the timing of opening the door something that can be done so casually?
Is this so-called eclipse gate real or fake?
Id asked again.
"Uh, about this."
"Although I don't entirely believe what's said in the book."
Leila looked a little embarrassed, but she smiled and said, "But this diary was left by my ancestor and has been passed down through generations of our family heads. Whether it's real or fake, we should give it a try, shouldn't we?"
Id was convinced; he realized that Leila really did have a bit of the "stupid beauty" vibe.
"So you're not just relying on intuition, and nothing you're actually certain about?"
Ide couldn't help but complain.
"Well."
Leila couldn't refute what Id said, and could only try to smile.
"What day does it open?"
Id put one hand to his forehead, thought for a moment, and then asked again.
"We have three weeks to prepare for July 7th this year."
""
Leila answered truthfully.
"OK."
"In that case, I will return to the Heartfilia family to find you on July 6th."
"I always have this feeling that if I'm not around, you're going to cause some huge mess."
"Of course, I hope you can give me a final answer then, regarding whether or not you want to join our Heavenly Kings meeting."
Id sighed; he was finally convinced of Leila's abilities.
Well, none of the other party's actions were precisely calculated; everything they prepared relied entirely on intuition and premonition.
Ide really couldn't understand how this silly beauty in front of him had cultivated to the "Heavenly King" level at such a young age.
Well, although when a mage's strength reaches the "inhuman" realm, many times the intuition is more accurate than precise calculation.
"OK."
Leila nodded slightly in agreement.
"Then I'll head back to the guild now."
"I haven't shown up at the guild for half a month, I need to hurry back."
As he finished speaking, Id got up from the sofa, preparing to return to the town of Magnolia.
"Um."
Leila smiled and nodded, but didn't try to stop her.
Leila knew better than anyone just how busy a "King of Mages" was.
"Did you go back so early?"
"Aren't you going to stay for dinner before you leave?"
"I have a bottle of fine wine in my collection, and I'm planning to open it today to celebrate."
Jiude did try to persuade Yide to stay, as he genuinely considered Yide a friend.
"Let's wait until the night of July 7th, when everything is completely over, before we talk about drinking. And remember, absolutely do not open champagne halfway through the night."
Id warned Jud that he was extremely averse to these things.
"Well.
"
"Okay, okay."
Jiude nodded slightly and said nothing more. He also genuinely believed that what Yide said made sense.
"Then I'm leaving."
After deciding to leave, Id waved to Jude and Leila, and then said goodbye to Grammy and Little Brandish before leaving the Heartfilia family mansion on his own.
"Goodbye, Lord Ido."
Grame didn't say much about Id's departure; she knew perfectly well that Id's mission was over.
"snort.
"
"Did you leave so early?"
Little Brandish was somewhat annoyed by Id's departure; she still quite liked Id.
"Jiu De, I have something I want to tell you."
"Actually, my research in Protoss magic is extremely profound."
"If I had to say, perhaps I'd be ranked number one on the continent of Ishgar in the field of Celestial Magic?"
"How should I put it? My success in magic is just as great as your success in business, Jude."
After Id left, Leila confessed to Jud that she now possessed magical power and that there were some things about the magical world.
"My wife is truly amazing."
Jiude smiled slightly, his eyes full of pride. The more outstanding his Leila was, the happier he was.
Well, regardless of whether Leila confesses to him or not, one thing will never change: he will always deeply love and always believe in his wife, Leila.
"Jiu De, aren't you angry?"
"After all, I hid some things from you."
Leila took Jiude's hand, looked intently into his eyes, and asked.
"angry?"
"I'm overjoyed!"
"My wife has now spoken frankly to me, which must be because the time is right. She didn't speak frankly before because the time wasn't right."
"Jiu De said with a smile."
"Jiu De".
Leila knew that Jude would always be on her side.
"Leila."
Jude gently embraced Leila, and he finally got some much-needed relaxation after being under so much mental strain these past few days.
"Waaah~"
Just as Leila and Jude were losing control of their emotions, little Lucy was standing in the corner of the room, secretly observing her loving parents.
"Cough cough."
Leila noticed little Lucy first. She coughed twice, subtly creating some distance between herself and Judah, and asked little Lucy, "Lucy, what brings you here?"
"I woke up because I heard a lot of noise downstairs."
Little Lucy laughed.
"Um."
"Lucy, let me introduce you to an aunt and her sister, what do you think?!"
Leila walked up to Lucy, picked her up from the ground, and asked.
"OK."
"Very good."
I have a younger sister.
"9
Little Lucy said excitedly.
And so, young Lucy met Brandish.
"Hello, my name is Lucy."
"What's your name?"
Lucy reached out her hand to Brandish in greeting.
"Brandish".
Brandish nodded slightly and said his name.
"Brandish?"
"That's a really nice name."
"Then Brandish, from today onwards I will be your older sister, and from now on I will protect you."
Little Lucy put her hands on her hips and said smugly.
"it is good."
Brandish paused for a moment, then smiled and said.
Lucy was the first peer to show her kindness.
Thus, Lucy and Brandish's friendship began.
Well, although what Lucy said before, that she would protect Brendi something from now on, was a lie.
To be more precise, from now on, Blantysh will be protecting Lucy.
Lucy: "That's because we haven't fallen into dire straits yet, okay?! I'm the type who only really shines when I'm in dire straits."
"Let's go play in the garden."
After befriending Brandish, Lucy took his hand and ran towards the garden not far away.
"OK."
Brandish followed closely behind with a smile on his face.
Although Brandish wasn't very talkative, the smile on her face had never disappeared since she came to the Heartfilia family.
"Very good."
"It seems that Brandish and Lucy get along very well."
"Just like you and me, Grammy."
Leila and Grammy stood together, watching Lucy and Brandish running in the courtyard, and laughed.
"Um.
"Young Miss, just like you, are both cheerful and kind people."
Grammy said with a smile.
"I told you, don't call me 'Miss'."
Leila frowned slightly, feigning anger.
"Okay, okay."
Grammy couldn't help but laugh.
In response, the magical knights, whom Jiude had hired at great expense and who had been frozen into ice sculptures by Id the moment they first appeared, remarked: "Um, isn't anyone even slightly concerned about us?! Are we really going to be left to bake in the sun for over an hour?"
Jiude: "Regarding this matter, given that your combat strength is far too weak, you simply cannot protect me. I have to have my wife protect you, so I have decided to dismiss you all."
cough cough.
the other side.
Magnolia town.
"I'm back."
After nearly twenty days of travel, Ido finally completed the task entrusted to him by Judo and returned to the Fairy Tail guild.
"Mr. Hayberion, a special cocktail, please."
The first thing he did upon returning to the Fairy Tail guild was to walk straight to the guild bar and order a special cocktail from Hyberion, who worked as the guild's bartender.
"Welcome back, Id."
Hayberian gently took the lead and began his operation using his professional bartending tools.
"Ide, this drink is on me."
Before long, a cocktail with a bright red liquid that looked like the blood of some kind of special magical beast was placed in front of Id.
After presenting the cocktail to Id, Hayberion smiled slightly, indicating that the drink was on him as a reward for Id's hard work.
Thank you.
Ide thanked Hayberian quietly and picked up the cocktail glass on the table. He took a small sip along the rim and thought to himself, "Hmm, it's on the sweeter side. The scarlet color is probably carrot juice or tomato juice."
"Bang!"
Then, before Id could finish his strangely flavored cocktail, he heard a muffled thud behind him.
"Id!"
"I've been waiting for you for a long time."
"Let me show you the magic I've just learned."
"Fairy Magic————"
Upon hearing the sound, Ido turned around and saw Laxus, radiating golden light, kick open the guild's door and stride towards Ido. As he spoke, he struck a pose resembling "Fairy Law," one of Fairy Tail's three great magic spells.
Yes, the moment Laxus learned that Ido had returned to Fairy Tail, he abandoned all seclusion and immediately returned to the guild from the back of Fairy Tail.
He wanted to show off to Ido how he had begged the great senior Warlord for a long time before finally learning Fairy Law, one of the three great magics of Fairy Tail, from Warlord.
"boom!"
However, before Laxus could unleash the super magic he had just learned in front of Ido, Ido, sensing the power of the sorcery, left the guild's bar first.
"Well."
Then, after leaving the bar, Ido rushed directly in front of Laxus with a speed far exceeding Laxus's dynamic nerves, and threw his fist to Laxus's astonished expression.
In just one exchange, Laxus, who was full of confidence a second ago, was pinned to the ground by Ido the next.
Of course, as Laxus fell, the fairy laws he had painstakingly gathered were forcibly scattered by Ido.
"Laxus".
"You can't use this trick on your teammates."
After pinning Laxus to the ground, Ide sat on top of him and then took the time to drink the special cocktail that Hyberion had given him.
"Pfft, hahaha."
"Laxus, is this the new super magic you've learned?"
"Laxus, the fairy law you're using seems to have a different power than the fairy law the Guild Master uses?"
Although the confrontation between Ido and Laxus was quite thrilling, in the eyes of the Fairy Tail guild members, it was as if Laxus had provoked Ido and hadn't even had a chance to unleash his magic before being instantly defeated by Ido with a single slap. Therefore, everyone burst into laughter and mocked Laxus.
"Damn it."
Laxus was furious, but he had nothing to say and couldn't refute anything.
Within the entire Fairy Tail guild, only the "Elite Four" level mages like Ido, Hyberion, and Ulfheim knew that Laxus had actually successfully released Fairy Law, only to have it shattered by Ido.
Yes, just like how the fairy radiance released by Kana was forcibly dispersed by Brunot, when the difference in magical power between the two sides is too great, even rule-based super magic is of little use.
Although, given the nature of fairy law, even if Ido hadn't broken the fairy law that Laxus had gathered, this move would most likely not have worked on Ido, or even the other members of the guild.
For Laxus, missing his ultimate is perhaps more humiliating than having his super magic shattered by Ido.
Of course, this super magic is quite useful against someone like Laxus's father, Ivan, who harbors "evil intentions".
"Ivan is going to suffer for the next few years! In another year or two, he probably won't even be able to beat his own men."
Id looked at Laxus, whom he had pinned to the ground, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.
Ide could clearly sense from Laxus that an immense amount of lightning magic was dormant within his body.
According to Ide's deduction, given Laxus's current training progress, he will inevitably reach the human limit in one to three years at the earliest.
At that time, Laxus will probably be able to beat up his father Ivan.
"Looks like Erza has a lot to work on."
Id thought to himself.
According to Ido's deduction, Ultear will be the first mage among these children to reach the limits of humanity, followed closely by Laxus, and then Erza will be the third mage to reach that level.
As for Mirajane, Gray, Cana, and the others, they are still a bit short of that level. After all, none of them have even crossed the threshold of the "Ten Saints".
"Our Fairy Tail guild has a really bright future."
Id thought to himself.
Well, you have to know that whether it's Uru, Gildarts, or the "God" Serena, or Heiberion, Warlord and Ulfheim, etc.
The fastest cultivator among them reached the human limit in his twenties, while some accumulated knowledge and skills over time, reaching the human limit in their forties or fifties.
In other words, the talent of the young geniuses in Fairy Tail guild today far surpasses that of their predecessors.
Of course, this is also because the Fairy Tail boys now have a group of "Heavenly King" level mages like Ido by their side, teaching them by example and helping them avoid many detours.
Time flies.
In the blink of an eye, more than half a month has passed.
The date is July 6th, X777.
Six o'clock in the morning.
Id returned once again to the town where the Heartfilia family lived.
Because the entire town was owned by the Heartfilia family, it was simply named Heartfilia Town.
"Knock knock knock".
Ide stood in front of the Hatfilia family mansion and gently knocked on the door.
"Click."
Before long, the gates of the Hatfilia family mansion were pushed open, and the person who came into Id’s view was none other than Grame.
After about half a month apart, Grami, who had bid farewell to the Western Continent and finally returned to the Heartfilia family, seemed to have become more voluptuous than before, and her skin was much smoother than when she was on the Western Continent.
Yes, it's clear that Grame's life has become increasingly comfortable since he returned to the Heartfilia family.
"Lord Ide."
"Miss, we've been waiting for you for a long time."
Grame gestured for Id to come in.
"Gramme, we're practically acquaintances, no need to be so polite."
Id waved to Grame, indicating that the other party did not need to use honorifics with him.
"That won't do."
"You are a Heavenly King, Your Excellency; I must observe the proper etiquette."
Grammy shook his head, insisting on addressing Id as "sir".
"have to."
"Please feel free to do as you please."
Seeing that Grammy was adamant about upholding her so-called etiquette, Id decided not to insist any further.
"This way, please."
Grame smiled and led Id into the Heartfilia family's palace-like mansion, heading directly towards the reception room.
"Click."
"Miss Leila, Mr. Jiude, Lord Yide has arrived."
When Grame led Id through the door, they saw that Jud and Leila had been waiting there for a long time.
Well, although in private, when facing Leila and Jude, she directly addresses them by their first names, she still adds the honorifics "Miss" and "Mr." when outsiders are present.
According to Grammy, she had to present herself as the head maid of the Heartfilia family in front of outsiders, so that they wouldn't think that the maids of the Heartfilia family were a bunch of ignorant and unprofessional people.
Leila and Jiude tacitly agreed to this.
"Id, you've come."
After Ide took his seat, Jude and Leila were the first to greet him with friendly smiles.
"Um."
"I am coming."
Ide chuckled softly, exchanged a few brief pleasantries with Jiude, then turned to Leila and cut to the chase, asking, "So, Mrs. Leila's choice is?!"
"I choose to join the 'Heavenly King' Council."
Leila said with a smile.
Yes, after thinking about it for more than half a month, Leila finally decided to seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and join the Fairy Tail guild's "Elite Council".
Of course, the person who played a key role in making Leila ultimately choose to join the "Heavenly Kings" Council was Jiude.
In Jiude's words, "Leila, you should have your own life and do what you really want to do! Instead of revolving your whole life around me and Lucy. As for the family business, I can keep an eye on it myself. Lucy is growing up too; you can't always be watching over her."
Yes, Jude and Leila are true love, and Lucy's birth was an accident.
cough cough.
"Very good."
Ide's lips curled up.
Now that Leila has accepted his invitation and become a member of the "Heavenly King" Council.
So, how far is it from Leila officially becoming a member of their Fairy Tail guild?
You know, back when Hyberion and Ulfheim were invited by Warlord, they didn't intend to join Fairy Tail directly. In the end, weren't they assimilated by Fairy Tail?
Once they come into contact with the mages of the Fairy Tail guild, assimilation will only be a matter of time.
cough cough.
"So where exactly is the eclipse gate mentioned in the diary?"
After Id had confirmed that Leila had accepted the invitation from the "Heavenly Kings" Council and would soon become a new member of their Council, he asked Leila about the second matter, which was the ultimate purpose of his trip: the question of the Gate of Eclipse.
"According to the records in the ancestral diary, the Gate of Eclipse is located four hundred years ago, the place where humans and dragons fought their final battle for control of the continent of Ishgar, and it is also the burial place of the dragons."
Leila explained.
"Where did the final battle between humans and dragons take place four hundred years ago?"
Ide raised an eyebrow slightly. After learning that the Gate of Eclipse was related to the battlefield where humans clashed with dragons four hundred years ago, he planned to go back and ask Eileen about it. As the queen of the Dragon Kingdom, Eileen was one of the main forces in the fight against the dragons four hundred years ago and a participant in that final battle. She must know the location of the battlefield very well.
"Um."
"Based on my speculation, this so-called burial ground of dragons is most likely located in this area of the Kingdom of Fiore."
As Leila spoke, she took out a map of the Kingdom of Fiore and, with a marker, drew a circle at the location she had predicted.
"here it is----"
Following Leila's finger, Ide looked at the map and saw the words "City of Flowers" Crocas clearly written on the map.
"Yes."
"Our target is Crocas, the capital of the Kingdom of Fiore."
Leila nodded slightly and continued, "If what our ancestors recorded is correct, then the royal family of the Kingdom of Fiore should be the one responsible for guarding the Gate of Eclipse!"
"In other words, the Eclipse Gate that we are looking for should be located in the Palace of the Fiore family, where they currently reside."
"At the same time, the ancestor's diary says that the Gate of the Solar Eclipse is located in the Abyss, so the Gate of the Solar Eclipse is probably hidden in the secret chamber under the Lantern Palace."
Leila analyzed the information she obtained from the diary one by one and came to a conclusion.
"...
""
After listening to Leila's entire analysis, Id fell silent.
Id thought to himself, "Could it be that Mrs. Leila is very clever?!"
Well, Id retracted his previous assessment of Leila as a "dumb beauty." The woman in front of him was a little too smart; she was just a bit eccentric on a daily basis.
"In any case, let's not delay and set off."
Leila got up from the sofa as she spoke, looking eager to try.
Therefore, it's possible that Lucy's love for adventure as an adult is inherited from Leila.
"Set off."
Idris smiled and nodded.
"How do we get there?"
Id asked again.
"Of course, we'll ride the Magic 4WD."
Leila said with a smile.
"Well."
The smile on Ido's face finally disappeared when he noticed the magical mini 4WD car that Leila had prepared in advance.
""
Ide felt nauseous just looking at this thing.
"No time to explain, get in the car."
As Leila spoke, she was already sitting in the driver's seat.
"Are you going to drive dressed like that?"
Ide looked at Leila in her gorgeous dress and his eye twitched slightly.
"Is that not allowed?"
Leila paused for a moment, then asked, puzzled.
"OK."
Id was completely convinced. He shook his head slightly and said, "How about we meet in the Flower Capital, Crocus?"
Originally, Ido intended to tell Leila frankly that the magical four-wheel drive vehicle she had prepared was completely unnecessary, and that they could use Ido's shaping magic to fly directly over from mid-air.
However, when Ido saw the anticipation in Leila's eyes for the Magic 4WD, he changed his mind and said he would meet Leila in the Flower Capital, "Krocas".
Well, in any case, there's absolutely no way Ido would ride in the magical four-wheel drive car driven by Leila.
"Don't you want to ride in my four-wheel drive?"
"My driving skills are pretty good; even Jiude said so."
Leila thought that the reason why Ide did not choose to ride with her in the Magic 4WD was because he did not trust her excellent driving skills, so she immediately pulled out her husband Jiude to prove his driving skills.
"this."
After a moment of silence, Jude smiled and said, "Great."
That's great.
When Ido discovered that even Jude, who considered Leila to be flawless, found Leila's driving skills hard to evaluate, he was speechless.
"Anyway, we'll meet in Crocus."
After Id finished speaking, his figure flashed and disappeared completely outside the Hatfilia family mansion.
Well, Id chose to set off first.
"Has Id left?"
"Then I'll set off too."
"Jiude and Grame, I'm leaving the house in your care."
Leila, in the driver's seat, shrugged helplessly after noticing that Ido had left first. After saying goodbye to Jiude and Grammy, she slammed her high heels on the accelerator of the Magic 4WD.
Finally, with a furious engine roar, the magical four-wheel drive vehicle disappeared like lightning into the courtyard of the Heartfilia family.
"boom!"
Under the frenzied magical input of the "Heavenly King" level mage, the demonic four-wheel drive vehicle managed to produce bursts of sonic booms.
"Again----"
"----See."
Jude and Grammy watched as Leila seemed to transform into a completely different person after getting into the car, and said goodbye with a sense of helplessness.
evening.
The capital of the Kingdom of Fiore.
Crocus, the "City of a Hundred Flowers".
This place is world-renowned for its countless blooming flowers.
Incidentally, all the cities in the Kingdom of Fiore are named after flowers, including Magnolia and Rosmarine.
"It smells so good."
When Id arrived in the royal capital Crocus, he was immediately attracted by the various flowers planted there. While waiting for Leila's arrival, he wandered around and played.
It lasted until 9 p.m.
While wandering around the town, Id felt Leila's magic. Knowing that Leila was not far away, he stood in front of the Lantern Palace, quietly waiting for her arrival.
Another half hour passed.
Accompanied by a series of hurried footsteps, Leila, dressed in a gorgeous long dress and high heels, strode quickly toward Id.
Even though Leila left in a hurry, she did not forget her elegance as the heir of the Heartfilia family.
"Feel sorry."
"I forgot that driving is not allowed in the royal capital, Crocus."
As Leila spoke, a hint of embarrassment crept into her expression. Her magical four-wheel drive vehicle had been impounded outside Crocas City by the kingdom's knights for speeding.
"fine."
"Anyway, it's good that we made it on time."
Id shrugged, indicating that these were minor issues.
"How do we infiltrate now?!"
Leila stood in front of the Palace of Lights, gazing at the knights and guards patrolling the palace perimeter, lost in thought.
"Just walk there."
Id sighed and immediately activated the magic "Bottemo".
"boom!"
As Id activated his magic, a massive magic circle enveloped the entire royal capital, Crocus.
The next second, endless cold air rose from the earth, freezing everyone in the capital except for Id and Leila in place.
"This is?!"
Upon seeing the scene before her, Leila's pupils dilated slightly. She whispered, "Id, have you frozen the entire capital, Crocus?"
"No, you did not freeze everything within the capital city of Crocus, but rather the entire space within a ten-kilometer radius."
Leila, being a "heavenly king" level mage, quickly discovered the secret of Id's magic.
"Let's hurry inside while I've frozen the space."
Id smiled at Leila and said.
"Hmm, Padma" is Ito's strongest technique after "Maha Padma," which can freeze even time. It is a magic that can freeze space over a large area.
The only regrettable thing is that although the range of "Patma" is larger than that of "Maha Patma", it is not very effective against mages of the same level.
"it is good."
While Id froze everything in the capital, Leila and the other woman walked openly into the Huadeng Palace in front of the soldiers.
"The basement is this way."
Upon entering the Hua Deng Palace, Ido quickly used his Observation Haki to pinpoint the location of the basement.
"Sensory magic? How convenient."
Leila watched as Id easily located the Eclipse Gate, and she said thoughtfully.
Even though Id could find the correct location of the Eclipse Gate with her intelligence and a little more time, she still had to admit that Id had been a great help to her.
Ten minutes later.
The basement of Huadeng Palace.
At the Eclipse Gate, passed down through generations of the Fiore royal family.
Ide and Leila finally found this place.
"The door is real."
"Now we'll see if the key is real or not!"
As Id felt the immense magical power emanating from the ancient gate built four hundred years ago, he smiled and said.
"Next, we will wait until dawn, on July 7th, X777, when we will open this door at the moment the lunar eclipse begins."
Leila said this, holding the Protoss Key in her hand.
"it is good."
Upon hearing this, Ide nodded slightly.
And so, time passed by, minute by minute.
As the second hand of the clock struck midnight, as a new day dawned, and as the moon, the sun, and the world of Asland aligned, Leila raised the twelve Zodiac Celestial Keys in her hand and proclaimed, "Open! Eclipse Gate!"
"boom!"
The next second, a surge of powerful magic erupted from Leila's body toward the Gate of Eclipse.
"interesting."
Upon seeing this, Id knew he had come to the right place, and he also released the magic within him, relieving Leila of most of the pressure.
Yes, the combined magical power of Ido and Leila surpassed the total power of the Grand Magic Games held by King Fiore, the old man Thomas, over seven years in order to reopen the Gate of Eclipse.
"boom!"
Finally, the door opened.
