"Yeesh." "You're gonna make me drunk without even drinking anything." "did you find out anything?" "Everything is starting to add up." "Dora..." "Mest." "The new Oracion Seis is responsible for the serial destruction of those churches. there were signs that someone had been taking shelter there. there's no record of them in any of Zentopia's documents." "I thought they were corpses but they're not dead." "I sensed faint biological activity coming from them." "It must be some kind of suspended animation." "never mind." "The Zentopia headquarters and the underground organization that exists among some of the local parishes..." "Something is happening there that involves whoever had been secretly harbored." "And we need to find out the identity of that person?" "Nico?" "Anti-Link!" "my!" "A handsome man!" "The new Oracion Seis!" "So you're the one called "Angel"?" "An-gel-tan!" "You're my angel!" "I hate clingy men." "What is he?" "Another one of the Six Generals?" "No!" "Dan Straight!" "but now I'm devoted to Ange-pon!" "I'm devoted to Laxus." "What are you two competing for?" "!" "wench!" "Where'd you put the Infinity Clock?" "!" "A stupid question..." "The cost is 40." "Be embraced by the power that comes from the light in my own name!" "That's Angel Magic..." "How profound!" "How awe-inspiring!" "Although that shadow by her eye is disquieting... angel of sunlight!" "Here I am!" "How are you?" "!" "What the hell is that?" "!" "It's plump and cute!" "Play with them." "Roger!" "Let's play!" "Pick me up!" "I'll play!" "I'll carry you!" "What the hell did you come here for?" "!" "Dark Ecriture!" "Pain!" "Ice Make Saucer!" "That tingled!" "An angel's sun rays are bright!" "Be destroyed by your own voice." "Evergreen!" "Max!" "There's something I want to ask you." "Do you know Cubelios?" "I see." "asshole?" "!" "This guy can hear people's thoughts." "Isn't that a mild form of sexual harassment?" "!" "I have no more use for you." "Evergreen!" "What was that?" "!" "That wasn't only Listening Magic!" "and fired it." "It makes the air vibrate." "I see..." "I can hear you." "Robe of Remoteness." "You're thinking it will mitigate my sound attack enough for you to strike a blow." "I can hear it." "that swordsmanship..." "Titania." "Your movements have become keener." "You didn't defeat Grimoire's Azuma for nothing." "Natsu beat this guy by attacking without thinking and a loud voice." "That was seven years ago." "That won't work on me now." "Nonsense!" "Seven years ago... Erza!" "I lost Cubelios!" "Give me back my friend..." "Give me back Cubelios!" "Cubelios..." "Nico." "The curate went out on our behalf yesterday." "Hey..." "Yeah..." "Who are you?" "Are you... a Celestial Wizard?" "Wendy!" "Nico!" "Wait!" "Let go of me!" "Calm down!" "the Captain of the Enforcement and Detention Corps of the Magic Council." "I'm here on an investigation." "The Magic Council?" "It's been seven years..." "She would probably look like this now." "If that girl had lived..." "Bickslow-san!" "Wendy!" "It's pointless." "He can't move." "little girl. human strength and grit are very easily mowed down." "Why?" "Even though you might have had a chance of winning by abandoning him..." "Abandoning..." "Abandoning a friend is unthinkable!" "Friend?" "Idiot!" "Don't be so soft!" "Sometimes the courage to leave a comrade is necessary!" "No!" "I'll never abandon a friend!" "Friend..." "What's that?" "Who are they?" "What was that just now?" "!" "Wendy?" "He..." "Open!" "Gate of the Chisel!" "Caelum!" "Please keep watch." "Two gates open simultaneously..." "Um..." "Is there something you want to say?" "You've been staring at me." "Is a Celestial Wizard so unusual?" "No..." "That's not it." "Your name is Katja?" "You remind me of someone I knew." "I do?" "Who are you calling flat as an ironing board?" "!" "I didn't say anything!" "Why are you fooling around?" "pardon me." "I'm the one who owes you an apology." "I remind you of a girl?" "She died seven years ago." "If I had done things differently then..." "Huh." "I'm a little envious." "you still care about her..." "I don't have anyone like that... 100 years is..." "I'd already given up. and most of my friends had passed on." "What do you mean by "given up"?" "Living now." "Now...?" "So I thought I'd at least remember even a little of this age's landscape..." "It's okay." "We'll..." "We'll..." "Tell me." "Are you the one who's been given shelter by this church?" "Yes." "Who the devil are you..." "Both of you?" "!" "Caelum!" "What was that?" "!" "no!" "Katja!" "Behind you!" "I found you." "Hold on!" "Mest!" "That guy's..." "Racer!" "Destroy... the vessel... there is not a moment to waste." "News of the archbishop's madness has begun to leak to the outside world." "We must elect the next archbishop with all due haste and hold the inauguration..." "Quiet! you must realize that the archbishop's personality powerless lambs." "However..." "Are you sure about this?" "Maggots." "Replacing the archbishop at this late date would change nothing." "The end is in our grasp..." "Destroy... the vessel." "Destroy!" "Bastard!" "You're very quick." "Lahar!" "Take this girl and get away!" "Understood!" "But I..." "I said!" "Mest-san..." "Let's leave this to him." "There's no need to worry." "he's quite skilled." "Moreover... he has a passion for justice." "Um..." "Thank you!" "I've thrown away a lot but it sounds like you've thrown away your humanity." "Destroy..." "Monster..." "Let's have a showdown to see who's faster!" "Shit..." "He's fast!" "But this ain't over yet!" "Direct Line!" "He moves so fast that it's easy to be fooled but my guess is that he runs in a simple pattern like this." "I can see your movements." "Shit!" "The blank of the last seven years I've spent drinking is kicking my ass!" "Am I too fast?" "My apologies." "No one can catch up to me." "Stop it!" "Stay out of my head!" "I don't need any memories!" "Bastard." "His memories are coming back." "Kageyama!" "Don't say anything to me!" "while some kind of force is resisting it." "it looks like you're gonna be crushed by your own memories!" "It looks painful." "If I could restore his memories with my Healing Magic..." "Just how soft-hearted are you?" "!" "I'll try it!" "little girl!" "Die!" "Roar of the Sky Dragon!" "Plus Cure!" "little girl!" "Remember!" "You're in over your head!" "Hey!" "how pathetic can you get?" "!" "Is this the kind of strength that I wished for?" "You're me?" "Something came out of his soul." "no..." "I..." "I hurt someone with my power of healing?" "No." "I saw what happened." "You healed him." "You healed his heart." "You'll explain?" "Yes." "What the new Oracion Seis is after which you've seen." "Anti-Link? there's been a secret underground organization operating from within." "We Neville Celestial Wizards have been sheltered by them." "Neville?" "The Celestial Wizard and author of "Key of the Starry Heavens"?" "We're the descendants of Will Neville's disciples." "there's also a biological link to a certain something." "What?" "!" "we have to protect it." "These markings testify to that." "But they're also an abominable curse." "What is it you're protecting?" "And the victims up to now..." "They're neither alive nor dead." "What the devil are they?" "!" "They're..." "Wen... dy..." "Bastard!" "I'm going to activate the Anti-Link amplitude limiter." "This is the end of me..." "What's happening?" "!" "Huh?" "Nothing..." "Katja!" "No..." "It can't be..." "Hey!" "Katja!" "Open your eyes!" "The Anti-Link is complete." "Will Neville." "being able to sleep for eternity in this moldy underground lair." "there aren't many of your disciples left." "cursed vessels..." "What?" "There's no need for concern." "I'll accept all of the nightmare that you saw." "Are you okay?" "Stay with me." "after fighting him..." "Never mind me!" "I don't know what the hell happened... the biological link was severed." "But I'm not cursed... it seems all of your magic has disappeared." "Nico!" "Thank you for everything!" "too!" "Right..." "It won't be 100 years from now." "I'm sure we'll be able to meet again sometime." "You understand what he says. and "Get your paws off of her!" "P-Pardon me!" "So you're no longer a Celestial Wizard." "I-I'm sorry..." "It looks like I couldn't protect you in the end." "no." "You did protect me." "From a terrible curse..." "I can live now thanks to no one but you." "Thank you." "I..." "I-I... live for the present." "Letting yourself forever be caught up in the past" "Mest." "What are you talking about?" "I'm not Mest." "I'm Doranbolt!" "Yes." "Break loose from the past and learn with your own eyes and ears that they're safe." "That's the beginning of your new path." "One thing bothers me... too." "For some reason..." "This doesn't make sense!" "I haven't even been able to land one punch!" "And he wants us to attack him head on?" "!" "This feeling that something is wrong..." "It's like Cana's divinations are backfiring..." "I'm gonna beat the crap outta you!" "wait!" "Zentopia was after the hand of the Infinity Clock that Lucy's dad left her." "both we and Legion were totally trashed by the new Oracion Seis." "Natsu!" "asshole!" "I guarantee it!" "Yeah!" "It has nothing to do with whether we have good battle chemistry or not!" "Amen!" "I feel like we're overlooking something that's incredibly important." "I hope Natsu is okay..." "It seems we've hit a dead end... what's that?" "Someone's here." "Looks like she's alive..." "Who is it?" "And what's she doing hidden down here?" "it seems she was receiving treatment here." "this lacrima is designed to keep her in a comatose state." "it would be inconvenient for someone?" "what's her name?" "It says "Michelle Lobster"." "It's no mistake." "This is her." "What?" "This girl is Michelle?" "!" "So it seems." "She lost her family in an accident at the Lobster Plantation." "She's their only daughter..." "Michelle Lobster." "wait a second." "Then who the hell is that with Lucy?" "!" "What's that?" "!" "The sound of bells?" "Coming from the sky?" "Natsu!" "That must mean it's lunchtime!" "I'm hungry!" "Huh?" "Lunchtime already?" "Lucy's treat!" "there's a giant fish flying through the air!" "Then that'll be our lunch!" "Next time:" "Unleashed Despair!" "I wonder if we can eat that... right?" "I don't know..." "That obviously looks like it'd be tough to chew..."
