Chapter 12: God
Ultear stared at Kazuma Yumesaki very sharply.
She really didn't expect that Yumesaki not only knew the events of the past, but even the events of the future—no, rather, even her and Jellal's plans were known by him.
It was worth noting that regarding this plan, right now nobody knew about it except for her and Jellal.
Yet the opposing party knew it so clearly, as if the opposing party had witnessed this future himself.
This was completely absurd.
"Who exactly are you?" At this moment, Ultear possessed an unprecedented vigilance toward Yumesaki.
Yumesaki shrugged and said, "I already said it, I am a person from another world, it's just that you don't believe it."
"A person from another world? Nonsense." Ultear felt Yumesaki was playing with her, "How could a person from another world know the events that occur in our world."
Seeing that, Yumesaki directly threw a set of Fairy Tail manga in front of Ultear.
Ultear: "???"
"If you don't believe it, just look at it yourself." Yumesaki pointed toward the manga and said.
Ultear narrowed her eyes, looked toward Yumesaki and Erza, then slowly picked up the manga and began to read it.
Then she saw her past, her future, as well as all of her plans.
At this moment, Ultear felt as if she was standing without any clothes on in front of Yumesaki and Erza.
Oh wrong, standing in front of Yumesaki.
Because she discovered that the manga not only recorded her own matters, even Erza's matters were recorded inside it.
A few hours later, Ultear finally finished reading the manga, and looked at Yumesaki with a very complicated expression.
"Is this a book of prophecy?"
"You can think of it that way." For the people inside the manga, this manga book didn't have a big difference from a book of prophecy.
"Then, who is Hiro Mashima?"
"He's just a person who draws manga, no need to care about him, he doesn't know anything about Fairy Tail."
Yumesaki waved his hand and said with a smile, gesturing for Ultear not to care about that matter.
Ultear: "..."
After a long time, she finally calmed her mind, and said with a flat expression: "Is my entire life actually just a joke?"
"Not really, at least the future you atoned for the mistakes you committed." Erza said.
"Then what is the meaning of my hatred all these years?" Ultear hated Ur, hated Gray all these years, and the result was she found out she hated the wrong people.
The person who truly should be hated wasn't them, but Brain.
This kind of feeling couldn't be described with words, her entire heart felt as if it had lost a piece, becoming empty.
Yumesaki shrugged his shoulders and said, "If it must be said, this can only be considered your bad luck."
Ultear: "...Do you feel that you are very humorous."
At this moment, if eyes could kill people, Yumesaki would definitely be full of holes.
"Of course not." Yumesaki shook his head, patted his own shoulder and said, "If you want to cry, I can lend my shoulder to you, I am someone who still has a little special treatment toward beautiful girls."
"Go away."
"Alright."
Yumesaki stood up with a smile, and said to Erza: "You two chat."
Then Yumesaki patted his pants and left the side room, heading to the corridor outside.
Yumesaki, who was feeling bored, eventually walked along the corridor, and halfway through met Jellal.
Oh, right now he should be called Siegrain.
"Um, excuse me, who are you?" Siegrain saw a completely unfamiliar person appear in the inner part of the Council, so he couldn't help but ask.
Yumesaki extended a hand and said, "I am a member of Fairy Tail, my name is Yumesaki. You are Council Member Siegrain right? Nice to meet you."
"A member of Fairy Tail?" Siegrain was somewhat surprised, but didn't refuse Yumesaki's handshake, a timely smile appearing on his face, "Why did a member of Fairy Tail come to the Council, did you guys cause a big trouble again?"
As a Council Member inside the Magic Council, he naturally knew that the guild most reported was Fairy Tail.
This guild made big news every few days, everyone was already used to it.
"Of course not, actually we came to look for Council Member Ultear."
Yumesaki took advantage of the moment when shaking hands with the other party, and used his mimicry ability to copy Siegrain's magic.
Siegrain, who was also Jellal, mastered Heavenly Body Magic, Elemental Magic, as well as Thought Projection Magic and various other types of magic, he was also a rare talent.
Furthermore, he himself was one of the Wizard Saints.
Copying his magic could also be considered enriching Yumesaki's methods.
It was just that Siegrain himself didn't know that at the moment Yumesaki shook hands with him, the magic he had trained hard for many years had been copied by Yumesaki.
His entire attention was drawn by Yumesaki's sentence just now.
"Looking for Council Member Ultear?" Siegrain asked curiously: "You guys are looking for Council Member Ultear, for what matter?"
Yumesaki naturally couldn't tell his purpose to the opposing party, and began to speak nonsense, "You also know that our Fairy Tail is a troubled guild, making big news every few days."
"Therefore, we intend to get close to Miss Ultear from the Council, so that she will be willing to help speak up for us when the time comes."
Siegrain didn't know whether he believed it or not, but he laughed heartily, "Bribing a Council Member is an illegal act."
Yumesaki said, "We aren't bribing a Council Member, we are just playing the emotional card with someone from the Council. Miss Ultear is beautiful and kind-hearted, she will definitely help us soon."
Beautiful and kind-hearted?
Siegrain had a strange expression on his face, somewhat unable to hold it in anymore.
Was the other party blind? To consider that woman Ultear beautiful and kind-hearted.
But this also proved from another side that Ultear's disguise was indeed very good, even Fairy Tail was successfully tricked.
Thinking of this, Siegrain laughed even more cheerfully, patted Yumesaki's shoulder, and asked Yumesaki to work harder.
"Rest assured, when the time comes I will also say a few good words for you guys."
"Then thank you very much, Council Member Siegrain."
Yumesaki looked toward Jellal who had been tricked by him, and laughed along.
After the two people separated, Yumesaki had just prepared to stay inside the Council a bit longer.
But Erza and Ultear had already come out.
"Have you two finished talking?" Yumesaki saw the two women walking over, then opened his mouth and asked.
Ultear snorted softly, seemingly still holding a grudge over Yumesaki's words just now.
Erza nodded, and said happily: "We have finished talking, Ultear will help us hold back Jose."
"Hold back?"
Yumesaki let out a small laugh, feeling Erza had most likely been tricked.
With Ultear's personality, how could she go hold back Jose, killing Jose was instead more likely.
This kind of matter, this wicked woman could definitely do it.
However, Yumesaki didn't expose it, but said with a smile: "Then that's good, next we'll count on your help, Miss Ultear."
He raised his hand, patting Ultear's shoulder.
In passing, he copied Ultear's magic.
Lost Magic, Arc of Time.
This magic was extremely powerful, it could restore the condition of objects to the past or push them into the future, but it was ineffective against living things other than plants. This magic could also use the Arc of Time to create numerous objects.
In the original storyline, during the Grand Magic Games arc, Ultear used her own life as a price to activate Arc of Time - Last Ages, turning back the entire world by 1 minute.
It was this one minute that saved the lives of many mages like Gray, Bacchus, Macao, Droy, Laxus, Wendy, Lucy and others who were supposed to fall, making this one minute the starting point for humanity to launch a counterattack.
Turning back the entire world by one minute or something was truly extremely cool, Yumesaki naturally couldn't miss this magic.
He executed the mimicry straightforwardly and quickly.
Ultear, just like Jellal, didn't know that at the moment she was touched by Yumesaki, her magic had been copied by Yumesaki. Instead, she continued to look at Yumesaki seriously.
"Why are you staring at me?" Yumesaki asked curiously.
"It's nothing." Ultear turned her head away, turned around and left.
Yumesaki had a puzzled expression and exchanged glances with Erza.
Erza said: "Let's go."
Yumesaki shrugged, then followed.
Upon leaving the Magic Council, Yumesaki said: "Actually, I just met Jellal."
Erza's footsteps paused for a moment, then immediately strode again as usual, "Is that so."
"So, what do you intend to do?" Yumesaki opened his mouth and asked.
Erza said: "This matter, Ultear will handle it. She has promised me to stop Jellal."
"Are you sure?"
"I am sure."
"Alright."
Yumesaki was also somewhat surprised, not expecting Ultear to return to the right path this quickly. If so, whether it was necessary to give her a surprise by reviving Ur.
In the original storyline, Ultear hated her mother because of a misunderstanding.
Later in the battle on Tenrou Island, she saw Ur's memories, thus knowing the truth of the event, feeling deeply regretful toward her mother, and her wish was to be able to meet Ur once again.
This wish was impossible to be realized by others, but for Yumesaki, this wasn't a troublesome matter.
Reviving the dead for Yumesaki was truly not a difficult thing.
However, reviving Ur could not be done in this world.
Because in this world, there was still a god who ruled over life and death... Ankhseram.
Although this god didn't officially appear in the manga, because of his curse upon Zeref and Mavis, he deeply influenced the development of the entire story.
As the god who ruled over life and death, Ankhseram possessed the highest power and majesty, other characters were filled with respect and fear when mentioning his name.
Based on the manga's settings, Ankhseram would generate wrath toward actions that tried to peek into or violate the laws of life and death.
He couldn't even tolerate actions that violated the laws of life and death.
For example, when Zeref tried to research the R-System which could revive the dead and the Eclipse Gate which could turn back time, Ankhseram handed down a curse to Zeref.
That curse was extremely cruel, it would make the cursed person, the more they understood life, the more they would claim the lives around them, as well as making the cursed person unable to age and unable to die.
Therefore, as long as Yumesaki dared to revive Ur in this world, he would definitely receive an attack from this god.
Don't look at how Yumesaki had now mastered many devil fruit abilities and magic.
He was still no match for this god.
