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

Makarov: "Actually, this wasn't my decision, it was the original one's."

He raised his head, his aged eyes looking at the crowd.

"The first generation of voice transmission told me to choose D."

"She said that although the odds were slim, it was worth the gamble for Hennaz. We've won every time before, haven't we?"

Makarov's words made Kirdas shake his head helplessly.

"Has the first generation, who once relied on wisdom and chance to win, now started to believe in gambling?"

"However, the first generation and I do indeed share the same thoughts."

Makarov: "Then let's not hesitate, we choose D!"

This was accompanied by Makarov's decision.

The three-minute answering timer resets to zero.

The question-and-answer session was immediately suspended. At this moment, everyone who was still thinking or had not yet come up with an answer lost their eligibility to answer the question.

At the same time, the paused footage on the screen resumed.

Chapter 74 Black Natsu: The Age of Dragons is Over!

"Natsu?"

Irene stared blankly at Natsu, who had suddenly appeared before her, her expression seemingly dazed.

My mind was racing, but it ultimately boiled down to one question.

Can Natsu...win?

Seemingly sensing a gaze from behind, Natsu glanced back.

Their eyes met.

For some reason, Eileen's cheeks flushed slightly, then she quickly looked away.

Jelf: "Look at that look! With that look, it's definitely going to be a sure thing!"

August: "Haha, it's definitely safe, it's really safe!"

Eileen: "What the hell are you two talking about! Shut up!"

Although Jelf is the emperor of the Alvarez Empire, even an emperor has to back down when Irene gets angry.

Keep silent.

Somewhere in the world, Jelf himself was sitting cross-legged on a desolate piece of land.

His gaze was fixed on the sky.

A cryptic smile appeared on his face.

"Great, great! If there were half a Black Natsu in this world, why would I worry about not having descendants?"

on the screen.

After Irene looked away, Natsu also turned his gaze back, staring intently at the billowing dust rising directly ahead.

[Amidst the smoke and dust, a massive body was rising from the ground, shaking off the stones, sand, and other debris.]

Then, two lantern-like eyes, glowing crimson, looked towards Natsu.

A blinding red light pierced through the smoke and dust, glaring fiercely at Natsu with boundless fury.

[Augustin, the Thunder Dragon, never imagined that he would be beaten so badly by a human.]

[Although this attack came from Natsu's sneak attack.]

But humans are still humans; how could one person possibly defeat a dragon?

【What a joke! 】

However, the moment their gaze fell upon Natsu, all their doubts vanished instantly.

"It was you!"

[Amidst the smoke and dust, the sound of heavy footsteps echoed.]

With each step the giant dragon took, the entire hall trembled.

The wall lamps on the walls began to sway precariously, and countless grains of sand and gravel slid down from the broken ceiling above.

[It's clinging to Natsu's shoulder.]

[Thump!!]

Another loud footstep landed heavily in front of Natsu.

Even the rubble and debris on the ground were shaken and bounced up.

The enormous body of the Thunder Dragon was now fully revealed to Natsu.

"You... are the boy who killed the dragon?"

A deep voice echoed throughout the hall.

Even the dust on the ground vibrated with the dragon's roar.

Natsu's temples were damp with sweat.

This might be the strongest enemy Natsu has ever faced since his debut.

[Even more oppressive than the Steel Dragon he had faced before, Medalicana now exerted an even greater sense of pressure on him.]

Of course, this doesn't mean Augustine is stronger than Metaricana; it's just that Metaricana never truly considered Natsu an enemy.

But the Augustine before them was entirely different; he was a true enemy, an enemy with whom a life-or-death struggle was about to unfold!

Natsu slowly raised his head, his fierce eyes meeting the Thunder Dragon's gaze without the slightest hesitation.

Under everyone's gaze, Natsu surprisingly laughed.

"Ah! You've heard my story?"

Natsu's unusual performance even surprised Augustine, the Thunder Dragon.

"Oh? You don't seem afraid of me?"

Why should we be afraid?

Natsu clenched his fists, his eyes burning with a fierce fire.

"Or is it simply because humans fear dragons?"

"Or are dragons superior to humans?"

Natsu's voice echoed throughout the great hall.

The provocation in those words even made Dylan and Noel, who were preparing to quietly escape, momentarily falter!

Turning around in disbelief, they looked at the two figures, one large and one small.

"This is insane! Absolutely insane! That's a dragon..."

Noel's voice trembled, and tears even welled in her eyes.

He's genuinely scared right now.

[I'm afraid that reckless fool might completely enrage the dragon.]

[The two of them were originally planning to escape quietly, but if that dragon went completely berserk, neither of them would be able to get out alive.]

"Damn it, where did Eileen find such a lunatic? If they want to die, don't drag us down with them..."

Dylan swallowed hard.

However, when the two cautiously turned around to observe, they discovered...

The terrifying dragon seemed stunned by Natsu's boastful words.

Even Irene was staring intently at Natsu's retreating figure, her eyes practically sparkling. She only breathed a sigh of relief after everyone else had stopped noticing them.

After carefully exchanging hand gestures, the two understood and turned back, quietly and slowly moving towards the exit not far away.

"Almost there, almost there, almost to the exit..."

On the other side, Augustine, the Thunder Dragon, frowned deeply, his crimson eyes filled with suppressed, unspeakable rage.

"Isn't...that's how it is? Shouldn't humans, like ants, tremble alone at the feet of dragons?"

"I'm sorry, that's no longer the case from now on!"

Natsu's expression remained unchanged, his gaze still fixed on Augustine.

[The small figure seemed to grow taller in Eileen's eyes from behind.]

[Even though Natsu is the one looking up at Augustine right now.]

[But it gave Irene the feeling that Natsu was looking Augustine in the eye.]

"What's wrong with this boy?!"

Eileen's skin crawled at that moment.
