Chapter 02

Twelve years have passed since Lunaru lost her sister and home, only to be found by Acnologia.

The next morning after she first met him, he started training her immediately, first unlocking her magic and then started training her in his Dragon Slayer Magic. His own type of Dragon Slayer Magic was also one of the most powerful, it was Ethernano Dragon Slayer Magic, Acnologia's element was magic itself.

Meaning that Acnologia could devour all types of magic rather than just a specific element, he could use every type of Dragon Slayer Magic, and could absorb the Ethernano from the atmosphere to use his attack. But what made Acnologia's magic truly dangerous, was the fact that it allowed him to reap the souls of Dragons he slain, not only killing them but taking their magic for his own.

It was with this power that Acnologia was known as the Black Dragon of the Apocalypse and the Dragon of Magic.

Anyway, that had been the only easy day of training, every other following day was torture and agony filled.

Acnologia proved to be a slave driver, not taking it easy on her at all as he showed her how to perform his magic. He only showed her an attack once and then told her he wouldn't show her another until he felt she could perform it at an adequate level; by his standards, mind you. It'd take weeks, sometimes even months, for her to master a spell and for Acnologia to teach her a new one.

Besides training her in his magic, Acnologia also physically trained Lunaru, given she also needed a strong body. This is where Acnologia truly showed his sadistic side; every morning at sunrise, he came up and had her do a thousand sit ups, pushups, pull ups, and run a hundred laps. Though she never once complained about the hellish training, knowing each night she went to sleep, her body screaming at her to stop, she knew it was another day closer to achieving her goal.

A goal that now included hunting down and killing Zeref, after Acnologia told her that the Black Wizard was still alive and immortal. This only fueled Lunaru's anger, that Zeref was alive and hiding somewhere, while Dark Mages kill and enslave people in his name.

Once she deals with all the Dark Mages and Zeref's demons, then she'll kill Zeref as well; even if he's immortal, she'll find a way to kill him.

Acnologia also didn't make it a secret that he's only training her to provide him a challenge and that if she failed to give him a good fight, he won't hesitate to kill her. This didn't really affect Lunaru, it only gave her another reason to become the strongest.

Lunaru also became skilled at hunting and trap-making, these weren't things that Acnologia taught her, but they were necessary in order to eat. Given how Acnologia told her if she wanted to eat then she'll have to do it herself, he had only done so when they met as it'd be counter-productive if she wasn't at her best when her training started.

After eight years, shortly after she turned fifteen, Lunaru had finally completed her training under Acnologia. She learned and mastered all his attacks both for his Ethernano Dragon Slayer Magic along with other types of Dragon Slayer Magic. With her training done, Acnologia had left Lunaru on her own.

Since then, for the past four years, Lunaru has hunted down Dark Guilds and wiped them all out, not hesitating in killing all members. They all tried fighting her, thinking they could defeat a lone mage, but they soon learned she wasn't an ordinary mage. Some of the Dark Mages, after seeing her tear apart their comrades, tried running but she easily hunted them down and killed them. A few even tried begging for mercy, only to die like all the rest.

She kept good on her desire of killing all Dark Mages, she took an especially sadistic pleasure in killing those that worshipped Zeref. Their screams were music to her ears.

Though her actions haven't gone unnoticed, with Rune Knights having tried to apprehend her and bring her before the Magic Council to answer for the Dark Guilds she's wiped out. Lunaru of course didn't do this, not wanting to waste her time with fools that only sit around all day and act like they're important. She didn't kill the Rune Knights, merely crippled them when they tried forcing her to go.

This proved to be a mistake, deciding to cripple them instead of killing them, as not even a week later she had been labelled a Dark Mage herself. That nearly made Lunaru want to go and slaughter the Magic Council for daring to throw her in with the same type of people who use magic for their own gain. She's the one who's wiping out Dark Mages and keeping people safe. The only reason she didn't is because they honestly weren't worth her time, if they wanted to make her the villain then it's a path she'll gladly follow.

Besides it's not like anyone has seen her face before, no one alive anyway. They also didn't know her name and instead gave her a title, "Tiamat, the Dragon Goddess."

Currently Lunaru was in Hargeon Town, having sensed a Dark Mage that was located there. That was something else being an Ethernano Dragon Slayer granted her, being able to sense "evil" aura within people along with the darkness in people. It made hunting Dark Mages easier, along with being able to replenish her power by devouring "evil" aura.

Lunaru has also grown and matured in the past twelve years. She had grown into a beautiful young woman, her red hair had grown out to her waist, and she had a narrow and voluptuous figure. Her attire consisted of a black sleeveless mini dress that hugged her large bosom with a white collar and a red tie, a red belt that had a red side skirt cover, long black socks and black boots, red gauntlets and black gloves.

She also had a sharp gaze like Acnologia that helped to ward off anyone that tried approaching her.

Sniffing the air, Lunaru growled as she smelled the Dark Mage. Following the scent led her to the docks and a large yacht. Sensing the Dark Mage on the ship made Lunaru grimace, the one downside of Dragon Slayer Magic was the motion sickness.

Stepping onto the ship, Lunaru groaned and steady herself on the railing, even if the ship wasn't moving, she still felt sick just by being on it. Another downside, the stronger the Dragon Slayer, the worse the motion sickness.

A small price to pay, to have the power to wipe out Dark Mages.

Once she managed to calm down her stomach, she searched the ship for the Dark Mages, having sensed more than one, she went down to the lower sections. Reaching the lower floors, Lunaru found something that pissed her off beyond all measure.

It was a group of Dark Mages with cages scattered around the room. What pissed Lunaru off was the cages were filled with young girls.

Slavers. Lunaru thought enraged.

These were the Dark Mages she hated the most, just as much as Zeref Worshipers, as it was these types of Dark Mages that took her sister from her. Before she was just going to kill them quickly, but now, they're going to suffer.

Summoning a black cloak and a white faceless mask that had red tear-markings below, as well as above, the eyes from a Requip space to hide her identity, Lunaru ignited her arms with crimson red fire, finally catching the attention of the Dark Mages.

"Inferno Dragon Iron Claw!" Lunaru said, swiping her flame covered hand at the Dark Mages unleashing claw shaped flames.

The flames crashed into the Dark Mages leaving painful third degree burns on their bodies. The lucky ones died moments after, the unlucky ones were currently screaming in agony.

"You! You're gonna pay for attacking Bora of Prominence! Prominence Whip!" Bora shouted, creating a Magic Seal that released a number of curved fiery beams of purple fire that launched towards Lunaru with each beam branching off in a different direction to strike at her from different angles

Lunaru only gave them a glance before holding up her hand and pulled the purple fire towards her. The fire gathered in her hand and then to the shock of Bora, the flames were being absorbed through the mouth of her mask, she ate the fire.

"Wh-What?!" Bora shouted in shock at seeing her eat the fire, all while Lunaru smirked, since she had some runes placed on her mask to allow any magic to harmlessly pass harmlessly through the lower part of it, straight to and out of her mouth.

"Your flames taste bitter. Now be burned by hellfire, trash. Inferno Dragon's…" Lunaru started as she leaned her head back before throwing her head forward unleashing a torrent of flames.

"…ROAR!"

Bora only had a second to scream in agony before his entire body was reduced to ash, along with the rest of the Dark Mages that were still breathing.

Cutting off her attack, Lunaru smirked when she saw nothing was left.

Inferno Dragon Slayer Magic was one of the styles of Dragon Slayer Magic that Acnologia had taught her. Unlike normal Fire Dragon Slayer Magic, an Inferno Dragon Slayer's flames burn much hotter and anything or anyone that touches them are guaranteed to be burned to ash. While their deaths may have been quick, they certainly weren't painless as the split second before they were turned to ash, every single cell in their bodies was being burned.

Turning to the girls still trapped in cages, Lunaru saw most of them shivering in fear of her, understandable given her attire and that she did just burn several people alive, without a shred of guilt.

"Titanium Dragon Sword." Lunaru said, turning her arm into a titanium sword with spikes that began rotating like a chainsaw.

Swiping her arm, Lunaru destroyed the cages, while getting a few screams of surprise.

"All of you go." Lunaru ordered, with the girls being more than happy to get off the ship.

Once all the girls were gone, Lunaru took off her cloak and mask before leaving the ship as well, stopping once she reached the dock and turned towards the ship.

Now just one thing left to do. Lunaru thought.

Opening her mouth, Lunaru began devouring the Ethernano in the air.

"Apocalypse Dragon's… ROAR!" Lunaru said while unleashing a blast of pure magic that eradicated the ship and cut a path through the sea.

Once the ship was completely destroyed, Lunaru stopped her roar and turned to leave, satisfied at having eliminated a few more Dark Mages. However as she left, Lunaru heard one of the girls she saved call out to her.

"Thank you Titania!"

Lunaru continued walking since they were far enough away to not really make out what she actually looked like. Though, she did raise a brow, not sure why she said that or thinks she's this "Titania" person.

Who the hell is Titania? Lunaru wondered.
