Final

The final

After her revival, Grandina's mind was so tired that she fell asleep right in my arms. Naturally, I settled her in one of the rooms of our newly built house and refused to leave her side for a whole day, until Elsa finally managed to persuade me with some pretty compelling arguments.

There were only 6 days left until the "S-Rank Mage Exam" and if everyone was going to hibernate like that when they got their bodies, I simply couldn't afford to wait. That's why all the dragon children were currently in the guild basement, as well as Makarov, who couldn't miss the moment of the guild founder's return.

Natsu, Gajeel, Wendy, they were all extremely excited about the prospect of meeting their dragons. Although some tried to pretend that they didn't care, various small details gave away their true feelings. However, the Iron Dragon Slayer had long ago become famous as a Tsundere.

And now I approached each of them in turn, plunging my hand into their souls to extract the souls of the dragons, which were immediately sent to cocoons, although with Natsu everything was a little different, because after sending Igneel to the cocoon, I also tore the guy's soul out of his body and sent it to the cocoon intended for him. And, perhaps, it's good that I warned everyone present about this in advance, because even knowing what was happening, they involuntarily became wary. Still, it's pretty scary to realize that someone can just like that tear your soul out of your body, and you have absolutely nothing to oppose to such a thing.

"Terrible woman," Gajeel muttered quietly, but when he met my gaze, he immediately pretended not to have said anything and focused on the cocoon, which was getting closer to opening.

And soon the room was illuminated by 4 different colors emanating from the cocoons, which were covered with many cracks. One after another, they literally began to fly apart from the excess energy that was trying to break out, and before us appeared two naked women and two equally unencumbered men.

- And who is this? - Gadgil's voice, full of bewilderment, rang out.

"I'm your idiot father," said the woman with huge breasts, a pretty face, dark gray hair and red eyes, but her beautiful appearance did not match the rough male voice.

- What the fuck? - perhaps this was a completely natural reaction to what was happening, because I was also a little stunned by this. However, who this did not affect was the younger Wendy, who was already hugging her Grandeeena, as well as Natsu, who was hanging on Igneel's shoulders, who in his human form looked like an almost exact copy of his son from the anime. Although, it would probably be more correct to say that the son took after his father.

- Are you a woman?!" the voice of the iron dragon slayer was truly filled with shock.

- Hmm! Look at this and see if you can look me in the eye and call me a woman. - Metalicana said with a challenge in her voice, pointing to her crotch and there was not what was expected. Metalicana damn Futa.

- Fuck. - the guy cursed, and as if on command, everyone who had acquired new bodies today began to fall asleep right there on the spot.

- Grandina?! - little Wendy cried out excitedly, supporting the body of the sleeping girl, however, Gadgil also did not fail and managed to catch his mother? Father? But Natsu and Igneel were not so lucky and their faces met the cold stone floor.

"I think they need to be moved to a more comfortable room," I said, looking at the dragon slayers who didn't know what to do, as well as Makarov, who had already lost consciousness from overexcitement.

- I'll take him...her to my apartment. - said a frowning Gadgil, who apparently also didn't know what gender to classify his parent as and was about to leave, when he suddenly stopped and looked at me. - You don't have anything to cover...her with.

- Yes, of course. - Holding back the giggles that were bursting out, I handed the guy a sheet, which he immediately wrapped Metalicana in.

After he left, I turned my attention to Wendy, and I simply could not allow her to carry Grandeeney in her arms by herself, and so, with the help of Elsa, she and her burden, as well as the unconscious Natsu and Igneel, were sent straight to the rooms, and the master was raised to his feet right on the spot.

- Now why don't you step into this cozy cocoon, Mrs. Foundress? - I said, looking towards the crystal with the girl sealed inside.

"So you knew I was here all along?" a girl's voice rang out before a teenage girl, who was also one of the founders of the Fairy Boast Guild and also its first master, appeared in front of us.

- Of course, - I nodded. - Remember the magic of souls?

- Do you… really think this will help me?

- Yes.

- How confident are you of success?

- About 30 percent, - Elsa answered for me.

- And you still offer me this?

- Yes, you wouldn't refuse such a chance, would you? – I smiled, knowing the answer.

- … I don't want men to see me naked.

- Master. - The gazes of those present immediately crossed on Makarov, making it clear what he had to do.

- Hmm, call me when you're done. - the old man chuckled before leaving the room.

"It's time for you to go first," I said with a smile.

"Yes, that's right," the girl answered slightly nervously, and after hesitating for a moment in front of the last cocoon, she found herself inside it with one jerk.

We probably watched this last incubation with even more tension than the first, because unlike the previous cases, now everything happens based on our assumptions and we could not say with complete certainty that the transfer of Mavis's soul would go like clockwork, and her cocoon probably shone many times brighter than all the previous ones put together and this light was like pure gold, it grew stronger and stronger until it became so bright that we could no longer look at it.

When the light went out, we suddenly heard a joyful girl's cry.

- I'm an adult! I really have become older! - and I suppose her joy can be understood, because, it would seem, the girl who had resigned herself to her fate of remaining an eternal loli was able to acquire the forms she so desired. In front of us stood no longer a teenage girl, but a fully formed young woman.

- Wow, perhaps it wasn't for nothing that we kicked out the master, - I expressed my opinion. After all, this sight would undoubtedly make him lose consciousness again. Frankly speaking, she already looked like a cute fairy. And having grown up... well, she evokes a very definite desire to discredit her.

- No-no-no, don't look at me like that, I've already heard about your love affairs and that's without me. - Mwais said, shaking her finger amusingly, and soon her body was covered with an illusion of a dress. - Now go ahead, I want to personally try out everything that has changed during my sleep.

- Em, do you feel any weakness or sleepiness? - I asked.

- Hm. I've had enough sleep over the decades, so let's go!

December 15, 784

Tenrou Island

The dragons and Natsu spent exactly a week unconscious, and fortunately, Elsa and I decided to play it safe with a time barrier and this was just enough for the sleeping beauties to check the level of their current capabilities, and they were truly worthy of some of the strongest dragons. Their magic in a narrow specialty was on par with us, and their bodies in human form were only slightly inferior and, frankly speaking, remembering that all of them could not cope with acnologia even though they fought alone, I felt a little uneasy, so it was unanimously decided to play it safe and go with the method of greatest and deadly efficiency.

And now, I, Elsa and the four dragons stood waiting for our battle, emitting the most powerful dragon aura, while all those whom Elsa and I trained over the years were engaged in the literal humiliation of the dark guild "heart of the grimoire", who became so bold that they decided that they could stand up to the strongest Fairy Tail mages during their S-rank exam. I'm sure the former second master of Fairy Tail has already regretted his decision more than once.

As for Mavis, her task was to use her feminine charms and, so to speak, sway the greatest dark magician in history to the side of light.

Our part began as if on cue, at the moment of the explosion of the huge ship of the dark guild. Acnologia, the greatest and most dangerous dragon slayer in history, appeared before us. And the fact that he appeared not in dragon form, but in human form, frankly speaking, was only to our advantage.

- Hooo, how many dragons decided to end their lives today, I even wonder where you were hiding all these years? - a bloodthirsty grin spread across the face of a dark-skinned man with dark blue hair.

- However, it doesn't matter, because today, I will taste dragon blood again! - Acnologia roared, releasing an abyss of magical power, but it did not affect any of us, and the only answer he received was that.

- Anti-magic barrier. - Without showing a drop of emotion, I calmly said the name of the spell, after which, without waiting, I rushed towards the most dangerous bastard together with Elsa.

None of us even thought about underestimating him, and immediately rushed into battle with all the strength we had, holding the sharpest katana in our hands.

Just one moment and the first blood was spilled, a bloody stripe appeared on the neck of the man who dodged at the last moment, it was clear that he wanted to growl something in anger, for which he paid with a severed hand. And from that moment on, fear appeared in the eyes of the bogeyman of all dragons. He tried to break the distance with us. However, the dragons thirsty for revenge were already waiting behind. Igneel's muscular fist was printed into Acnologia's stomach, sending him flying straight at us.

2 cold flashes, and 3 separated body parts touched the ground, and silence fell on the battlefield.

-…

- Is that all? - Elsa was the first to speak up. And the obvious question in her words can be understood.

We spent so many years together in crazy training, coming up with new and more deadly ways to defeat the enemy, who, as they say, could threaten the world itself, and now. The whole battle was over in a couple of seconds.

- Hmm, I didn't even have time to hit. - Metalicana snorted in disappointment.

- Ha... Ha-ha, aha ...

- Bitch! Bastard! Creature! - Igneel approached the severed head and with each word struck with his foot with such force that a crater was formed, which constantly went deeper.

- Uh, Igneel. - I already wanted to ask him to stop, after all, it's a bit strange to mock a corpse, but Grandina stopped me.

"Leave him," she said, placing her hand on my shoulder. "We've all suffered from Acnoligia... And it's possible that we're also the last of the living dragons."

- You are not the last. I know for sure that there is at least another son of Igneel. - She stated confidently, releasing the barrier at the same time.

- What did you say? - the king of fire dragons froze.

- Well, I know that on a certain continent called Gilten there live five divine dragons, one of which is your son Ignia.

- So that's how it is, hahaha! - This time Igneel laughed with genuine happiness, - In that case, it's time to have a FEAST, because we just saved this world!

Such loud and joyful laughter was like a signal for those who were watching our fleeting, but truly fateful battle from afar, and the first to jump out to us was our cat Charlie.

- It's all over, isn't it? We won?

- Yes, we won. - I answered, as if I was only now accepting what had happened. And it was as if a heavy burden had fallen from my shoulders. Perhaps, if my life were a fanfic, such an ending would be extremely disappointing, but in real life, it does not happen that the main character decides to weaken himself in the final battle on which the future depends, and the enemy does not become unreasonably stronger. And I am sincerely glad that I dedicated most of my life to my development before this.

- Elsa, Charlie, - I turned to my lovers.

- Yes? - they looked at me expectantly.

- Will you marry me?

- YES!

300 years later.

Magnolia

300 years, it would seem, is not such a long period for an immortal being, but for a mortal mind, everything is the opposite. During this time, many different events have happened, from the destruction of Tartaros and all the more or less significant dark guilds. To the unification of the whole world by Zeref. This emperor, having got his beloved and got rid of the curse that tormented him, seriously intended to follow the path of progress. And if it were during the time of his madness, Elsa and I, as well as Charlene, who decided to catch up with us, would have stopped him, but having made a banal comparison between his prosperous empire and Fiore, rotten through and through with corruption, we, and then Fairy Tail itself, decided to choose neutrality, especially since the first master of Fairy Tail supported Zeref, and then, not counting rare incidents, including those related to parallel worlds or all sorts of occultists, we lived quite peacefully and happily.

However, as I said, the mortal mind is not designed to live too long, and the three of us, having raised wonderful children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren and even great-great-grandchildren, were simply tired of living, and it became increasingly noticeable that we were simply beginning to lose emotional attachment to anything, increasingly becoming simple observers who would soon no longer be interested in anything.

And this brought us to today. Before losing ourselves completely, and even such an important thing as love, we decided to take a rather unusual step. We decided to go to new worlds to continue to build up knowledge, and so that the burden of the years lived would not press too much, we decided to go the way of reincarnation.

And now, in the middle of the courtyard of the house, surrounded by many protective spells, we stood on a stone slab, on the surface of which a magic circle was carved, combining several incredibly complex, and, frankly, forbidden types of magic, the same magic of souls. Not counting me and the emperor, there is probably not a single magician who would dare even casually mention the possession of soul magic. However, all this is not important.

"I love you." I smiled at Elsa and Charlie for the last time, knowing that a new life and new adventures awaited me.
