Compared to the two fairies, Natsu is truly slaying a dragon!

Lucy: "So, in that case, the answer is D."

Mavis: "So, I won!"

Zeref: "Phew... This is indeed beyond my expectations. This Hyunaz's growth rate is faster than I imagined."

Eileen: "What a pity I didn't have an answer sheet, otherwise I would definitely have gotten this question right. That kid is not simple at all."

August: "There will definitely be other opportunities in the future. Anyway, just like Hades said, you can win by choosing the most outrageous one."

Melty: "We also chose D, Tia, we won!"

Ultear: "I won the bet! This Black Natsu really lived up to my expectations and succeeded in slaying the dragon!"

Soon, it was under the watchful eyes of people all over the world.

Information updates for the sky screen.

[Ding! The correct answer to this quiz is D.]

[The winners are Jellal from The Sin of Witches and Mavis from Fairy Tail.]

Congratulations to both of you for winning the reward.

[Congratulations Mavis, you have obtained the Boots of Resistance!]

[Congratulations, Gerald, for obtaining the Staff of Revival!]

[Note: The Boots of Resistance are a pair of boots whose style can be changed at will. Wearing them causes a continuous weakening curse until it is completely removed.]

[Note: The Staff of Resurrection is a scepter in the shape of a cross inlaid with dazzling seven-colored crystals. It has the power to revive the dead (provided that the soul has not dissipated).]

[Note: Each of the above items can only be used once.]

What?!

Upon seeing the reward displayed on the sky, countless people widened their eyes in that instant!

Even Jelf was the same.

His usually calm and composed face was now filled with shock.

His gaze was fixed intently on the Boots of Resistance.

"It possesses a persistent weakening curse, and... until it is completely eradicated?!"

"So... these are boots that can remove the curse?!"

This is very important to Jelf.

Because, from beginning to end, what has perplexed Zeref for over four hundred years and caused him so much pain is precisely the curse from the god Ankhseram.

The curse of life and death is also known as the curse of contradiction.

The more you love someone, the more likely you are to take their life.

Unfortunately, Jelf's true nature is actually kind.

It was precisely because of this that the pain of watching countless people he deeply loved lose their lives because of him continued to torment him.

For over four hundred years, it had almost driven him to the brink of collapse.

There were even instances of creating life forms capable of killing oneself, in order to end one's own existence.

Unfortunately, it has not been successful to this day.

But... at this moment, he saw new hope.

"These Boots of Resistance... could they lift the curse of the god Ankhseram?"

the other side.

Inside the Fairy Tail guild.

Countless people are lamenting this.

Gray: "Boots of Resistance? They look pretty good, but they don't seem to work."

Makarov: "Ah, if only I had gotten the Staff of the Resurrecting Angel."

"That way, the first generation can be resurrected."

Even Mavis looked at the boots that appeared in front of her with a sense of helplessness.

"Boots that can lift curses...may have been useful back then, but what use are they now that I'm a ghost?"

But at that very moment, Mebius's private chat channel suddenly rang out.

Confused, Mavis clicked on the profile picture in the private chat.

He blinked, somewhat puzzled.

"Huh? Precito?!"

Chapter Sixty-One: Uru's Resurrection, Mavis's Moves!

On the other hand, upon seeing that the rewards included items like the Boots of Resistance.

August was thrilled!

Can it lift one's own curse?

Does that mean... the curse on Zeref can also be lifted?

But... when they saw that the recipient was Mavis.

August fell silent again.

Long-forgotten memories kept flashing through my mind, completely extinguishing any excitement I had just felt.

Yes, since the Boots of Resistance can remove the curse from Zeref.

So... is it possible to lift the curse on Mavis?

August knew that Mavis was cursed in the same way as Zeref.

Augustus raised his eyes and looked at the group of twelve shieldmen who were excited and even preparing to immediately head to the continent of Ishgar to seize the Boots of Resistance and hand them over to the Emperor.

He sighed helplessly.

Finally, he spoke: "The matter of going to the continent of Ishgar to seize the Boots of Resistance is hereby abandoned."

Upon hearing this, all twelve Shields present stared at August in astonishment.

Of the twelve shields, Augustus was undoubtedly the most loyal to Zeref.

Logically speaking, August should be the one to step up first in something that would fulfill Jelf's wish, right?

But... why is this happening?

Auguste didn't offer much explanation: "Don't bring this up again. Believe me, even His Majesty the Emperor wouldn't agree to you doing such a thing."

"Since the Boots of Resistance were awarded to Mavis, they belong to her. Don't even think about taking them."

As the most radical advocate of war among the Twelve Shields, Agil retorted, "But... why?! You have to give us a reason!"

Auguste glanced sideways at Agil: "This involves a long-buried secret, so you'd better not get involved."

"in addition!"

As he said this, August's eyes swept across the entire room; this was the first time August had been so serious.

"If anyone still tries to get their hands on the Boots of Resistance... don't blame me for doing something unexpected. I'll talk to His Majesty about it, so don't worry about it."

Upon hearing this, the Twelve Shields, who had been restless just moments before, all fell silent.

As the Magic King and the strongest barrier in the empire, August's words are quite intimidating.

On the other side, Mebius, having finished her call with Precito, raised her head with a slightly excited expression.

"Everyone...it seems...I'm not dead yet!"

Yes, he's not dead yet.

During the recent call, Mebbs learned some inside information.

After Mebius died for some reason, his body was sealed away by Precito.

And this initiated decades of research.

It was simply because he sensed that Mavis was under the curse of the god Ankhseram.

That's a curse that can make someone immortal.

It is precisely because of this that Mavis's body is not actually dead, but is on the verge of death.

Precito's research was aimed at resurrecting Mavis.

It was during this journey that he glimpsed the abyss of magic and fell into it.

However, these are all things for later.

In short, Precito's letter informed Mavis that she was not actually dead, and therefore the Boots of Resistance were still usable.

However, how to revive Mebis himself is up to Mebis himself.

Even Precito didn't know.
