The clouds were getting lower and lower, and the rain was starting to fall, but the four of the six demon generals still didn't move.

"That's all we need to do, don't we go to the rain?" said Kunai, who is An Jie'er of the Six Demon Generals, and Kunai is her real name.

"Where to hide, where Gerald?" Eric snorted.

"Hey, late at night...... What the hell are you going to do......" Sawyer looked at the night and said, Sawyer is codenamed Lisa in the Six Demon Generals, and like Sono, it is the code name used in the Six Demon Generals.

"I'm still the same thing, I don't need the freedom to be used anymore, my freedom is up to me," said in a calm voice late at night.

"But......" didn't speak late at night, but Sora didn't speak, "I want to follow Gerald......" Sora Nai's expression was very calm and serious when he said this.

"Angel...... Are you serious?" Sawyer was taken aback.

"What do you think...... Am I kidding?" said Kuno as he looked at Sawyer.

Seeing that Sono Nai's expression was no longer true, the four of them were silent for a while.

After a minute or two, Eric looked in one direction, "Who should I be, so you're not dead yet" Eric laughed as he spoke.

Hearing Eric's words, the other three all looked in the direction that Eric was staring at, and sure enough, there seemed to be a figure slowly approaching in the rain.

"Who......" Sawyer frowned.

"An unexpected person," Eric laughed, and there seemed to be a hint of sarcasm in his voice.

The figure got closer and closer, and finally the face of the figure also appeared in the field of vision of the four people.

"Who did I think it was, it turned out to be the Six Demon Generals, I thought you would be imprisoned for the rest of your life," the figure said lightly.

"The Seven Dependents of Purgatory......" Kongnai's expression changed slightly.

"Rasti......" At this time, a voice sounded, and everyone looked at the source of the sound and found that it was Merti, and Gerald, Urrutia and Richard also came over, they came because it was raining to let the four of the six demon generals go to hide from the rain, but they encountered such a scene when they walked here.

"So you're still alive...... Rasti ...... "Urutia spoke as well.

"Urutia, Melti...... How could you be with the Six Demon Generals and them, and...... And Gerald......" Rasti said with a frown as she looked at Urutia and Melti.

"We have established a new guild, and we are with the Six Demon Generals because of something......" Urutiya said.

"A new guild?" Rasti said without speaking, and after a brief silence for a few seconds, "In that case, we don't have anything to say, goodbye......"

"Hey, Rasti, why don't you say something since you've met ...... you are," Melty shouted "why are you so embarrassed......"

"It's none of your business...... There's nothing to say," Rasti said and turned around and walked in the direction he came from, indeed Rasti now is completely different from the handsome and dashing Rasti seven years ago, the whole person is full of vicissitudes, and even the hair on his head is much whiter.

Urutia also wanted to say something, stretched out her hand but saw Rasti's back, and swallowed what she wanted to say, she also understood what caused it, because she was a companion and now ...... Because of this, she felt that she was a little unable to face Rasti, and that she couldn't say something she wanted to......

"Wait a minute...... Eric said suddenly, "I'm a little interested in your business......" Eric said with a smile.

"I heard something in your voice, you were afraid, you were afraid...... It's a little bit, but I've heard it......" Eric said as he looked at Rasti.

"What is it that scares you, can you tell me......" Eric continued, and after Eric's words fell, Sawyer and Sono blocked Rasti's path in a triangular encirclement where Eric had crouched, and Rasti stopped after being surrounded.

"What if he doesn't say it......" Sawyer said in a calm voice.

"No...... ...... what he would say," Eric laughed, confident in his tone.

"Wait, wait......" Seeing Eric and the others seemed to want to make a move on Rasti, Melty immediately stopped.

"Peace of mind, we know how to measure...... Right, Rasti...... And what the hell is it that scares you......" Eric laughed.

Rasti was silent for a few seconds before he slowly spoke, but his body did not move, "It's the gate of Hades"

"The Nine Ghost Gates, those guys?" said Eric, frowning slightly.

Rasti was silent again for a few seconds before he slowly spoke, "Seven years ago, we were defeated by Fairy Tail, and then we were followed by a person who would never dare to imagine......"

"Zeref...... Zeref appeared in front of us, and in a split second President Hades was killed in front of me, and when I woke up I was floating on the sea, and since then I've been wandering around while healing myself......" Rasti said slowly.

"What about Light and Azuma...... Melti asked.

"They should all be dead...... I've used magic to embody them......," Rasti said.

"That's ......," Melty lowered her head when she heard this, and said in disappointment.

"You also know that the Dark Guild exists on the mutual non-aggression of the Balaam Alliance, our demon heart is basically in a state of dissolution, and your six demon generals have been captured, and all that remains is the Gate of Hades......" Rasti said.

"How can this ......," Sawyer said.

"Recently...... I've heard rumors that the subordinate guilds that originally belonged to the Demon Heart have been wiped out in large numbers, and there is no doubt that the Gates of Hades have done a good thing......" Rasti continued, "Because of this, I used the Arc of Magical Manifestation to manifest Zancro, Azima, and Light to find the headquarters of the Gates of Hades, the island of the underworld......"

"What about the result......" Melty said.

As a result, he was easily killed by the madness of the Nine Ghost Gates...... But because of that, I seem to see something else...... In the depths of that room......" Rasti closed his eyes and said in a calm voice.

"What do you mean you're arrogant, what do you want to do with just four of you......" Eric scoffed.

"The Nine Ghost Gates are nothing, what is terrible is what is behind the Gate of Hades, that is the real terrible ......" Rasti said, "My words are also finished, it doesn't matter what you want to do, whatever you want, I'm just scared......" As he spoke, Rasti's footsteps took a step, and then he wanted to walk forward, this time no one stopped him, and soon Rasti's figure disappeared into the rain.

"We should go too," Gerald said, heading east.

"But......" Merti tried to say something, but was interrupted by Urutia.

"Let's go, listen to Gerald's ......," said Urutia, who followed as well, and seeing that Urutia had not said anything, Merti had to follow.

"We're not going where you're going, we're not going to the gates of Hades......" Eric said.

As Eric said this, Gerald's footsteps paused slightly.

"Although it has collapsed, we are still a member of the Balam Alliance, and although we are a dark guild, we still have the glory of the dark guild......" said late at night.

"According to the treaty of the Balaam League, we can't go to the gates of Hades......" continued late at night.

At this time, even Richard didn't speak, indeed, as he said in the middle of the night, although he didn't want to admit it, but they were still a member of the Six Demon Generals, so they still had to be bound by the treaty of the Balaam Alliance.

"I'm going, and I have to go......" Gerald said slightly, "and someday...... I will come to meet you" Gerald's footsteps continued to move after saying this, and soon the three of Gerald disappeared into the rain.

The rain came and went quickly, and in just ten minutes, the rain began to stop, and the clouds began to disappear, and the sun shone on the ground after the rain, and there was a feeling of fresh air in the morning.

"Why do you care so much about the Six Demon Generals, Gerald, because of the agreement with Dorangbart......? Why aren't you going to stay with Rasti......" Melti said.

"The captives......" Gerald began, "they were once imprisoned in the Tower of Paradise, and in that sense, they are the same as me......" Gerald said in a calm voice

"Even if you are free, this will not change...... Regardless of the purpose...... I used to live with them for a long time......"

"Ironically, we are ...... because of the undead of Zeref and the companions imprisoned by the Tower of Paradise," Gerald said.

"Perhaps...... Isn't it......" Melti looked at Gerald with a slight frown.

"I felt the curse in the prayer that had imprisoned them, in the battle around Nirvana......" Gerald continued.

"Prayer...... Richard's wish is to meet his brother, who is imprisoned in the Tower of Paradise."

"Sawyer's prayer is that no one can keep up with him"

"Sora's prayer is to be liberated from the earth and disappear into the sky"

"Eric wants to talk to his only friend when everything can't be trusted......"

Mark Bess wants to sleep peacefully in a world full of screams and whimpering...... Their prayers turned into powerful magic, and then they were used by the Chiefless and fell into the Dark Guild...... I'm also responsible for using ......the tower," Gerald said slowly.

"But, that's ......," Merti looked at Urutya.

"Whatever Urutia says, it's me who takes action...... That is, I have the weakness to be consumed by darkness......" Gerald said

Listening to Gerald's words, Urutiya was silent, and there was a hint of apology in her expression.

"At that time, Natsu said something that I remember from time to time......" Gerald laughed as he said this, "Natsu said at that time...... You don't get free, you don't get any freedom from those who are bound by the dead, free yourself, Gerald...... That's what Natsu said......"

"I want to liberate them...... Just like Natsu said at the time...... It's also my responsibility......" Gerald's words fell, this was what Gerald hoped for the most, and he who was saved by Natsu wanted to save his companions who were also in darkness.

"Unlike Gerald, I can't face Rasti, or I still can't face my past, which I discovered during the recent solar eclipse, when there seems to be darkness hidden in my heart......," Urutia looked at the sky.

"Wouldn't I say those things the same way I deceived Gerald, so ...... I can't speak...... I can't even open my mouth, let Rasti follow our words......" Urutia said slowly.

"Uru ......" Merti was a little surprised, she never thought that after seven years, Urutia seemed to be the same as when she left Sirius Island at that time, this feeling was very strong.

………………

More than a thousand meters away from here, the five of the six demon generals were walking towards Gerald's side.

"Cut ......," Eric suddenly let out a very dissatisfied sound, which surprised the other four.

"What's the matter, Eric, what did you hear...... Sawyer wondered.

"Nothing, just heard something unpleasant...... "Eric said with a very disgruntled expression.

No doubt...... In the distance, Gerald's words were heard by Eric in its entirety............

……………………

The headquarters of the Gate of Hades is the island of the underworld

In the castle, Mirajan, Wendy, Charlulu, and Frankmars, who had been captured by Xiu, were running down the aisle, and Xiu told them something, and they were quickly acting according to Xiu's orders.

At the same time, there was a dark room in the depths of the castle, this room was somewhat empty, but there was a large stone seat in the depths of the room, and it seemed that there was a person sitting on it, not indeed.

"The demons in the book of Zeref, collectively known as Aitrias, are human ...... How could you possibly deal with demons......" A man's voice came from the stone seat.

"Right...... President ......"

As the faint light shone through the room, a very handsome dark-haired man sat on a stone pedestal, holding a book in his left arm.

In the dim light, the cover of the book was visible with three letters, and this letter was ............

“END”…………
