Tower of Heaven (III)
Tower of Heaven (III)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Magic Council saw how the Etherion beam dropped over the Tower of Heaven. It caused a bright light which made every member turn away their head from the screen. When the light resided they saw in place of Tower of Heaven there was a huge tower-like lacrima which was glowing blue brightly. Everyone was shocked to see that and the chamber was completely silent.
Until a burst of mad laughter resounded throughout the room. Everyone broke out of the trance and looked over to Seigran who was laughing madly.
Org: Seigran what is the meaning of this??
Seigran: Don't you understand old fool??? This is the true Tower of Heaven and another thing. Jellal and Seigran are both the same person.
Org: How dare you....??
Seigran: Now that the job is done I no longer need any of your assistance.
As soon as Seigran stopped speaking huge explosions took place while shook the whole Magic Council and the building started to break down. Seigran has already disappeared from everyone's sight meaning he was no longer here. All the members of Magic Council now regretted their decision.
Yajima: I just hope that Axel gives us an easy death...
When everyone heard Yajima another wave of fear crept inside them. All the members of the Magic Council were able to escape. Some had heavy injuries while maximum of them had minor injuries.
~TOWER OF HEAVEN~ (20 minutes ago)
Erza and the rest of the group reached the top floor where they could see huge doors that were stopping them from moving forward. Erza kicked the door and the door was completely destroyed. They looked inside and found that the room looked kind of throne room.
All of them walked inside and soon they reached the end of the room where they could see a golden throne and Jellal was sitting over it.
Jellal: Welcome...!! Erza tell me how do you like the tower??
Erza: So this is the shit you built using the blood of innocents??
Jellal: Bullshit... I am the chosen one who was chosen by Zeref so he could bring freedom to this world. Oh my... is that you Ultear??
Ultear: Yes it is me... I think you have become more insane.
Jellal: You betrayed me Ultear... you have no right to lecture me. I needed Erza for my plans so when I heard that bastard Axel was sent on a mission I was overjoyed then I remembered you. How much I have wanted to kill you and then bath in your blood.
Ultear: I also have the same thoughts about you except bathing in blood. But before we start fighting why don't you give up... you are being manipulated.
Jellal: Don't try to deviate me from my mission... I have been chosen by Zeref now stop playing and let's fight.
Ultear: I guess there is no stopping now... so lets fight.
The rest of the backed away, Natsu's group was a little bit worried but Axel's girlfriends knew that Ultear could easily defeat Jellal.
Jellal hands made some magic circles and rays of light were launched towards Ultear. Ultear didn't move from her place and an Ice wall raised up from the ground which protected her from Jellal's spell. Ultear vanished from that place and appeared behind Jellal with two Ice swords in her hand. Jellal was able to sense her but it was still late, Ultear swiped the blade and two gashes appeared on Jellal's shoulder.
Jellal grunted and activated his Meteor magic and moved away from her. Ice vines appeared on the ground and started to chase Jellal. Though the vines were slower then Jellal but they were coming from every direction which made it harder for Jellal to dodge. Jellal again formed a magic circle in his hands and rays of lights shot from it. This was the chance Ultear needed, she again appeared beside him and plunged one of her swords into Jellal's left shoulder and pinned him down on the ground.
Jellal screamed but inside his mind, he was completely shocked and was cursing his luck for not knowing that Ultear was so strong. He had never imagined that Ultear could dominate hi like this. He knew that his chances of winning now were very slim.
Ultear: So any last wish??
Jellal: You were late...
As Jellal finished the sentence something hit the Tower and it started to shake. Jellal used this chance and used Meteor to get away from Ultear. The tower was engulfed in a bright light which made everyone to close their eyes.
As soon as the light cleared they could see that the Tower was falling apart and the true Tower of Heaven was revealed. Jellal was laughing like a madman when Seigran appeared beside him and merged with him. He then looked over to the Fairy Tail group with disdain clear in his eyes. As soon as he merged his wounds closed and his power doubled. He showed Ultear a smug grin and gestured with his hand.
Jellal: Now get ready for round two...!!
~IN AKANE RESORT~ (A few minutes ago)
Axel, Irene, Juliet, and Heine were talking with the resort manager asking about the group. At first, they declined to give away any information regarding their guests but when Axel showed him his emblem the manager started to sing like a canary. Obviously Axel knew that Erza was in Tower of Heaven but he cannot tell that to Irene without showing her that he is gathering information regarding that.
Suddenly all of them present there were blinded by a bright beam dropping from the sky which seems to have dropped on the ocean. Soon the light died down and worry could be clearly seen on Irene's face since the manager pointed that direction where Erza and her friends went. Axel easily noticed her worry but before he could stop her she flew in that direction.
Axel made an Ice Chariot and hopped on it along with the two girls and blasted off after Irene. Soon Axel caught up to Irene and asked her to join them because he could fly more faster than her. Irene complied and jumped on the chariot. Axel placed his hand on her shoulder.
Axel: Don't worry she will be fine...
