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

Makarov: "Sigh, who knows? Why is there such a big difference when it's the same person?"

Mavis: "Maybe it's just being used in the wrong place?"

Gajeel: "Let's put aside that idiot Natsu for now. Can anyone tell me what Irene and Igneel were talking about in the sky?"

Natsu: "Eileen, come out and say something."

Eileen: "You bastard, do you dare show your face again? Aren't you afraid I'll tear you apart?"

Eileen is still angry because of her reflection in the sky.

Upon seeing this world, Natsu was instantly filled with rage.

To be honest, Irene really had an urge to tear Natsu apart. What kind of situation is this?

Of course, Erin doesn't deny that Black Natsu is a monster.

In fact, if it were me back then, and I had met Honez, I might have made the same choice.

only……

Preconceived notions troubled Irene; after all, she simply couldn't stand the sight of White Natsu in this world.

"Besides, how would I know about something like this?"

"Please use your brain, okay? Igneel was talking to another Irene from that other world. What does that have to do with me? How could I possibly know?"

August: "Actually, I'm quite curious too, but since the scene has changed, it means it's not something we 01 can know right now."

"Just wait and see, all these mysteries will definitely be gradually revealed from Honatsu's perspective."

on the screen.

After saying goodbye to Igneel, Eileen let out a long sigh of relief.

My pace quickened slightly as I walked through the forest.

Soon, he returned to the palace and went to his own chambers.

Their gaze quickly settled on Black Natsu, who was still lying on the bed.

She breathed a slight sigh of relief and took light steps to Natsu's bedside.

Her gentle gaze fell upon Henna.

After a long pause, Eileen suddenly laughed.

"I'm so curious, what will you be like when you grow up?"

"Will you still remember me then?"

"Or perhaps, did I really still exist back then?"

Recalling everything Igneel had said, Eileen felt a heavy weight settle over her shoulders.

Unknown times, unknown future.

All of this made Eileen somewhat apprehensive.

However, regardless of anything else, Eileen knew that her heart would not change, just like the promise she had just made to Igneel.

No matter how many years or how much time has passed, I will always be here waiting for him.

Waiting for the day we meet again.

[It seems she's thought of something interesting.]

Eileen couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"In that time, you will see an empire more powerful than ever before, and you will be its king!"

"I'm so curious, what kind of expression would you have back then?"

"What expression?"

The sudden sound startled Eileen!

[He immediately looked down at HyunAz.]

"You're awake?"

"[Eileen asked in surprise.]"

"Ah, my head still hurts a little, but it's nothing serious now."

Henna sat up in bed, rubbing his head with one hand, and began to look around.

The final image focuses on Eileen's slightly flushed cheeks.

"What's wrong?" Henna asked, frowning.

"N-nothing...it's nothing..." Eileen quickly waved her hand, her gaze cautiously sweeping over Black Natsu.

"I didn't say anything."

Black Natsu could tell at a glance that something was wrong with Irene's appearance.

After all, would you have this expression if you weren't feeling guilty?

However, Irene didn't want to say more, and Haenatsu didn't press the matter. After all, he still trusted that Irene wouldn't do anything to harm him.

"By the way, how long did I sleep?"

"It's been over a month, aren't you hungry?"

Seeing that Henna wasn't hesitant, Irene breathed a sigh of relief, then quickly asked with some concern.

"After all, we haven't eaten for a month."

"Now that you mention it... I think I really am hungry."

Henna rubbed his stomach, speaking with a hint of helplessness.

"Don't worry, I don't have much else here, but whatever you want to eat, I can make it happen!"

Eileen patted her chest and chimed in.

"Um... there's something I'm not sure if I should say."

To everyone's surprise, Hazen looked at Irene with a strange expression.

"Huh? What?"

"Hmm...it's too big. It was vibrating just now. It's better to take fewer pictures next time."

"Go to hell!!!"

"Haha, let's eat! I'm starving!"

Soon, countless delicious dishes were served.

Black Natsu pounced on it like a hungry wolf and began to devour it voraciously.

Eileen sat there, resting her chin on her hand, her beautiful eyes quietly watching Black Natsu.

After all, now every glance is one less chance to see it.

"By the way, there's something I might need to let you know."

Black Natsu, who was eating, raised his head and spoke to Irene.

"Go ahead, I'm listening."

"I might have to leave in a couple of days."

[Henazu said.]

"Leave...?" Eileen's expression darkened slightly, then she forcibly suppressed her emotions.

[He casually asked,] "Aren't you going to stay a few more days?"

"No, I've been out for almost half a year. I have to go back and check on things. Besides, I have a feeling my dad is hiding somewhere watching me. If I don't go back soon, he might just show himself and take me away."

Hearing Hyunaz's explanation, Irene couldn't help but shake her head inwardly. As expected... they truly are father and son.

Igneel did indeed want to take Honez away directly, but he allowed Honez to stay a few more days to keep Irene company, out of consideration for Irene.

[I didn't expect Natsu to have even foreseen this.]

Eileen smiled, but didn't continue the conversation, instead asking about other things.

"By the way, how are you feeling now?"

"What about your physical condition?"

Hearing this, Black Natsu put down his roast chicken, wiped the grease from his mouth, and then spoke.

"As for the situation, I feel pretty good, and all aspects of my physical functions have recovered to their peak."

【"but……"】

"But what?" Eileen asked, puzzled.

"However, its power is much weaker than before."

Hearing Hyunaz's reply, Irene frowned.

"Much smaller? You mean, when it had just absorbed the lightning from the Thunder Dragon?"
