Chapter 30 - Chapter 30 The Final Moments

Acnologia named the baby Erza, just three words, without Scarlett, Acnologia, or Belserion.

He should have taken his surname, but the name Acnologia originally belonged to a dragon, representing evil and slaughter, and he did not want Erza to inherit it.

As for the name Qi Letian, it's uncertain whether he will use it in the future, and besides, it doesn't seem like a name from a magical world.

As for Belserion, he was originally a dragon, but when Erza grew up, she could choose whether or not to add him.

Acnologia was also helpless; the two of them together couldn't come up with a normal name, so Erza would be fine too.

Seven days passed in the blink of an eye. Acnologia stayed with Erza the whole time and didn't go anywhere else. As for the affairs of the kingdom, he left them all to the number one Dragon Slayer General.

When the kingdom's ministers learned of the arrival of the little princess, they all rushed to present gifts, which now filled an entire room.

Little Erza was surprisingly easy to take care of. She didn't cry or fuss, and she didn't like toys. She just liked to follow Acnologia or Irene around, so Acnologia would hold little Erza every day.

After some time, the two finally remembered the magic test, and the results surprised Acnologia.

Little Erza has an extremely high talent for both Dragon Slayer Magic and Spatial Magic.

I can understand the dragon-slaying magic, since both he and Irene can transform into dragons, but what's with that spatial magic?

Is it some kind of destiny?

Acnologia pondered for a while, then stopped thinking about it. As long as Erza was happy, magic didn't matter, and she could even be a normal person if she wanted to.

On the other hand, Irene stayed in her room all day cultivating without stopping for a moment. She was extremely envious of Acnologia playing with little Erza every day.

After tireless efforts, she finally completed the human transformation two weeks later.

The first thing he did was get hugged and kissed by Erza a few times, and the second thing was being pulled into the room by Acnologia...

A month passed in the blink of an eye. I don't know how the war between humans and dragons went during this time, but the Acnologia family of three lived a happy and fulfilling life.

In the early morning, Erin picked up Erza from the crib next to her and put the bottle of animal milk into Erza's mouth.

It's actually quite strange. After giving birth to Erza, she didn't produce any milk. At first, she tried to get Erza to suckle for a long time, but nothing came out. She even wondered if there was something wrong with her.

However, she didn't have to worry for long. As the queen of a country, Princess Erza could get whatever milk she wanted.

At that moment, a soldier outside reported in a panic.

"Your Majesty, the city of Philos has fallen, and seven surrounding kingdoms have been destroyed by dragons. All the benevolent dragons have perished, and currently more than five thousand malevolent dragons are hunting down humans. Many kingdoms are asking us for help."

"So fast?"

Eileen's expression changed. She placed little Erza in the cradle, strode out, and said to the soldiers, "Summon all ministers and generals to the palace for a meeting."

Acnologia, who was on the bed, also woke up. Hearing the conversation outside, he knew that the time for his final battle against the evil dragon had come.

After he put on his clothes, he gently kissed little Erza and then went out the door.

"It's time!"

He found Irene and whispered, "Take Erza to the Kingdom of Fiore, find Anna Heartfilia, and when the Eclipse Gate opens, go to the future together."

"Aren't you sure either?"

Eileen's heart skipped a beat. Although she didn't know what the Eclipse Gate was, she knew that Acnologia was trying to help her and her daughter escape.

Acnologia said in silence, "There are too many evil dragons. Even I may not be able to win. You and Erza are both on my mind. I can't be as carefree as before."

Ultimately, he was no longer the evil king he once was. People become weak when they have attachments, and he was no exception.

"Don't worry! After you leave, I will have no weaknesses. Even if there are many evil dragons, they will not be able to defeat me!"

He reached out and hugged Irene, whispering gently in her ear, "Go, I will create a peaceful and beautiful future for you and little Erza!"

Eileen looked up, tears streaming down her face: "You must live. Without you, no matter how wonderful the future may be, I would rather not have it!"

Acnologia looked into Irene's eyes and smiled confidently, "Don't worry, I am the King of Dragons, the Black Feather of the End. This era of dragons is destined to end with me!"

"As for the Kingdom of Doragunov, there is no longer any need for them to hold out. In this life-or-death situation, let everyone escape!"

The two talked for a long time. After Acnologia's repeated assurances, Irene cried her eyes out. Despite her pain and reluctance, she ultimately chose to leave for the Kingdom of Fiore for the sake of little Erza.

Acnologia snapped out of his thoughts and returned to the throne in the palace.

His gaze seemed to reach thousands of miles away, where thousands of evil dragons lay, his pupils revealing a cold and savage killing intent.

Dragons, are you ready for how you die?

...

"All troops assemble!!"

With countless resounding voices, all the soldiers quickly converged from all directions, their steps firm and powerful, as if the earth itself trembled.

In an instant, the sounds of war drums and horns rose and fell, and the entire kingdom was in an uproar.

The soldiers quickly formed a neat square formation, their armor gleaming coldly in the sunlight, and each of them had a determined look in their eyes.

Behind them were countless ordinary people, their eyes filled with questions and confusion.

Why gather so many people when there's no dragon attack?

Acnologia stood high above, looking down at everyone, her voice calm yet resonating throughout the entire royal city.

"At this time, I will tell you about the situation of the human-dragon war. The strongest human kingdom, the Kingdom of Philos, along with its seven surrounding kingdoms, has been completely destroyed, and all the benevolent dragons who stood on the side of humans have died!"

"How is that possible?"

"Are we humans doomed?"

"Impossible! The Kingdom of Philos has gathered most of the Dragon Slayer Mages of the Alliance, how could they possibly lose?"

Ignoring the panicked and chaotic sounds below, Aknologia continued, "This is the truth, and our Kingdom of Doragunov is facing a life-or-death moment."

"Even if I am strong, I am still just one person and cannot protect so many of you!"

"Your only chance of survival now is to abandon the Kingdom of Doragunov and flee as far away as possible, away from this war zone."

"And you soldiers of the kingdom, you must also flee. Most of you are mages, so your chances of escaping are greater than those of ordinary people. In fact, in the future, you may even be able to rebuild the Kingdom of Dorakunov."

"Okay, that's all I wanted to say."

Acnologia turned his back and said calmly, "Whether you escape as a group or alone, now get out of here and save yourselves. As for the kingdom's food and money, take what you want."

"The Kingdom of Doragunov has come to an end!"
