"We will put an end to your evil deeds now, Demonic Mage Zeref." Aragon Rednight's expression twisted as he looked extremely angry, the sleeves of his robe and blond hair moved violently as the wind blew across the mountainside.
His crimson red eyes shot out angry looks as his eyebrows furrowed violently.
An evil aura swept over the place, emanating from the Demonic Mage Zeref who stood in surrender, holding an ancient book.
His black hair matched the darkness of the night at that time, his red eyes glowing in that pale face.
His release of this aura was intended to threaten them to leave, but it seemed that it did not work.
10 mages stood in front of him, all of them prepared to attack
"We are the mages of the sons of blood, we will make you regret everything you have done, these devilish goals of yours we will not let you achieve them no matter what it takes" A voice erupted from one of the mages
Zeref seemed not afraid of this, but his cold provocative looks made it seem like a pre-planned play.
He began to mutter in a low voice, while closing his eyes,
He spread his hand wide and bent down to place it on the hard ground
At that moment, a blue circle appeared with incomprehensible symbols and words
He opened the book he was holding, and began to browse, not caring about the situation
"What do you think you are doing, are you trying to provoke us or what?!" One of the mages shouted in an angry tone
"I know that these are my last moments, who will be able to defeat the Blood Sons mages?!, it is impossible" Zeref mocked and continued browsing
Everyone clenched their teeth in anger,
In addition to anger, another feeling swept through their hearts, it was fear, the person standing in front of them now is not an ordinary person but is considered the strongest mage. The only thing that gives them some advantage now is his advanced age. His hair began to turn gray, and wrinkles filled his face
At that moment, it seemed that he had reached what he wanted, he took one of the pages of the book with his wrinkled hand and gently tore it
then he closed the book and threw it into that circle that absorbed it and disappeared immediately after.
He grabbed a crumbling and cracked paper, and began to examine it with his eyes very slowly
His eyes widened and he smiled when he saw something, his expression angered all the Blood Sons mages
"Aragon, you mentioned before that my goals are demonic, do you really think so?" Zeref asked with a cold gaze that pierced everyone's hearts.
"Becoming the only one capable of using magic, you simply want to rule this world and do whatever you want without any limits, isn't that devilish enough?!"
"Who told you that I wouldn't rule justly and make the world a better and more peaceful place?" He raised his eyebrows in question
Aragon Rednight pulled his fighting stance and also pulled back the angry expression that had taken over his face
"Power is a complicated matter, Zeref, especially in your condition, you can simply do everything and anything and I'm talking here about bad things, if you did that you wouldn't get any punishment because you are simply the strongest and the ruler no one will dare to confront you in this world that is ruled by power"
Zeref smiled
"You are right in what you said, I won't deny that, but if I give power to those who deserve it, the world will become more peaceful, of course I am talking about myself"
Aragon laughed
"Zeref, you were my best friend, your pursuit of power always despite any obstacle that appeared in your way, it was wonderful, everyone praised it, but when we joined the Blood Sons mages, I felt that you started to change, what happened to your old goal, didn't you want to make the world a peaceful place in a different way?!" Zeref sighed before his expression became serious.
"At that time, I saw life in a different light, a rosier light, but on that day everything changed. It's true that my goal didn't change, but the way I would reach that goal did. Since that day, I dedicated my life to finding the right way to do that. I withdrew from the Blood Sons mages and set out on a quest. I encountered many people, beings, and entities. I learned many spells that I wrote down in the book. At a certain point, I almost lost hope, but when I remember the details of that dark day, that loss of hope turns into an unquenchable flame. Even if it's extinguished, just thinking about that day ignites it again."
"This is war. People die. Your family, Cecilia, they definitely didn't want you to become like this!"
Zeref smiled again
"We will never know"
He raised the paper to his eyes that glowed with sadness
"He will start chanting some kind of spell, we can't seal him completely now, this will take a lot of time, let's seal him with the time seal" Aragon Rednight ordered the rest of the Blood Sons
Then all the Blood Sons mages started to form a circle around Zeref who stood coldly chanting slowly
They spread their hands and formed them into a triangle
Then they started chanting some kind of spell
Then a blue circle formed under Zeref who glanced at it and returned to chanting that spell
That circle glowed under him and sparks of blue color started to erupt from it
It was clear, the end of the demonic mage Zeref would be here and now
In a moment, all the Blood Sons mages said a certain word loudly
"Seal!"
The ground shook then and a blue beam blinded everyone's eyes for a moment.
The beam cleared, revealing Zeref.
But he wasn't in his normal state, he was trapped inside a blue triangle.
His expression remained the same, cold and provocative.
His gaze focused on that tattered paper.
Many thought that the end of the demonic mage Zeref was now,
Some knelt on their knees and cried with joy, and some raised their heads to the sky and contemplated the stars of that black sky.
But one of them knew the situation better, he didn't do any of that, but his face was dominated by expressions of sadness and anger at the same time.
The blood sons mages were still forming a circle around Zeref
Then Aragorn Rednight roared, "What are you doing?! Do you really believe this is his end?!"
Everyone woke up from the illusion they were living in for a moment,
Aragon Rednight let go of his sword which fell making a loud noise,
A strong wind blew down the mountainside at that time
"He will return I am sure of that, that spell he was reading I know very well, fortunately he did not complete it"
"Aragon, can you tell us about this spell" someone asked
"That spell is forbidden, many elite magicians used it before, when they grow old and their bodies become fragile and wrinkled, they transfer their soul to another body, but fortunately they will not be able to transfer their soul to a specific body, the soul chooses a body and enters it, whether it is the body of an old man, a child or a woman"
Aragon Rednight bowed again to the ground, holding his sword
"Anyway, we must inform the king of this, me, Arthur Blackfire, Bastian Light, Alex Shadow and Julius Skylight, we will go and inform The King
"You remaining ones will guard the demonic mage"
"Yes"
The first squad headed towards the kingdom of Wizland ruled by King "Aaron Wizard" to tell him what happened
While the second squad stayed there to guard Zeref…
