Chapter 668: 668 Fairy Tail Epilogue part 2: The First Wife Is Ashamed, Truth Revealed, Leaving Fairy Tail, Fake Omnipotence and A New World?
Erza was a gorgeous woman, though often overshadowed by her strict and severe demeanor, which made everyone see her as a terrifying monster. However, beneath that hard shell was a sensitive girl who loved cute things—something she had been denied because she had to live with armor always on.
In the past, that armor not only protected her body but also her heart. But not anymore—her heart had finally shed that armor because she knew she would no longer be hurt. In his arms, she felt safe. That no matter what she faced, she would no longer be alone.
With those thoughts, Erza relaxed her body, releasing all the tension she had carried for years, and focused solely on the man who was kissing her—the one who looked beyond her exterior and touched her heart.
In the midst of caresses, Erza had already decided to give herself to Allen. He was the man she had chosen. Despite his flaws as a womanizer, to her, he was the most wonderful man in existence.
Allen kissed her.
Erza kissed him back.
Allen caressed her skin, her body, and Erza traced his skin and muscles with her hands. Clothes disappeared, and soon they looked at each other with nothing between them but their love and desire.
Allen caressed her breasts, kissed her body, and savored her taste. Erza bit his skin, her hands tracing his body as she savored his masculine warmth. Slowly they both plunged into an overflowing passion.
"Ah❤️~"
With a moan of pain that quickly turned into pleasure, Erza lost her purity—no, she gave it willingly to the man she loved.
....
The dawn filtered softly through the window of the room. Erza was the first to open her eyes, feeling the firm, steady warmth beneath her cheek. It took her a few seconds to realize she was resting on Allen's bare chest, who was still sleeping in complete tranquility.
Her cheeks turned a deep crimson.
"It really happened..." she whispered, barely audible, bringing a hand to her lips as if to convince herself that everything that happened last night wasn't a dream.
She wanted to pull away, but instead, she found herself sliding even closer, curling against his torso. Her heart pounded hard, yet there was a comforting sweetness in that moment. After a few seconds, she gathered her courage and, timidly, leaned in to brush her lips against his in a soft good-morning kiss.
Allen opened one eye at just the right moment.
"Already wanting a repeat so early?" Allen asked with a cheeky grin.
"Shut up!" Erza's face burned as she remembered everything that had happened last night, how Allen had pushed her to the peak of bliss again and again until she fainted.
Allen chuckled and pulled her into his chest once more. Erza didn't resist—what would be the point? Allen already knew "everything" about her.
"Thank you..." Erza whispered.
"They say there's no need for thanks between husband and wife."
Erza trembled, but a hidden smile spread across her face as she accepted his declaration. "We're not married yet..."
"You said it yourself—yet. But in the future..."
Erza lifted her face toward him, meeting his eyes seriously. "What about Lucy? Juvia? Mirajane... and your little lover Cana?"
Allen nearly choked at the last girl. As expected, Cana's visits weren't as secret as he thought.
"Of course, I intend to take responsibility for them as well."
Erza looked into Allen's eyes. She saw palpable sincerity, unshakable will, true affection, and a promise.
Erza realized then—this fool wasn't planning on letting any of them go. No matter if it took him a hundred years, he was determined to make this work.
"You're a selfish and greedy fool..."
"I know..." Allen said, gently stroking her cheek.
"But even so... I love you," Erza replied before leaning in again, surrendering herself once more.
....
(Hours later)
Allen caressed the back of a tired Erza, who was breathing heavily against his chest. Her warmth and beauty only stirred him further. But as tempting as it was to continue their morning session, Allen chose instead to use the moment to tell Erza everything about his past.
Where he came from, the power he had obtained, the places he had been and where he must return, his relationships with other women, his invaluable dolls—which she had always thought were spirits—and most importantly, his current wager with the devil.
Erza listened with a serious gaze despite her position. Her eyes held a thousand questions, but above all, there was concern and anger.
"So that bastard is behind everything!"
Erza had always sensed that this world was being tampered with. Deliora shouldn't have been that powerful. Jose, Jellal, and Brain—none of them should have been that strong. The world was supposed to be balanced. Erza wasn't the strongest mage alive, but she could fight even a Saint Wizard. Yet, when she faced each of them, the overwhelming difference in power was undeniable.
It made no sense. If Deliora had truly been that monstrous, not just the northern continent but the entire world would have ended.
"But most importantly..." Erza stroked Allen's cheek tenderly, though her eyes burned with fury. "That bastard dared to hurt you!"
Allen blinked, then smiled and kissed her cheek. "Stop acting so cute, or I'll want to eat you up again..."
Erza blushed and bit his shoulder. "I'm being serious!" she barked, her flush spreading from her ears down her neck.
"Sorry, haha."
Allen hugged her tighter, and soon Erza felt a wave of laziness. She had never imagined how comforting it would feel to be embraced like this. Of course, Allen had to restrain himself—after all, he had a beautiful naked woman in his arms. If it weren't for the fact that they had already been "exercising" all night and part of the morning, he'd already be on top of her again.
Erza rested her head on Allen's chest, a smile spreading across her face.
"I know no one is perfect. I'm the first to admit it. Because of my weakness, Millianna, Wally, Simon, Sho... even Sorano and everyone in Oración Seis had to go through terrible moments..." Erza paused. "Maybe it was my fault they strayed from the path."
"Don't say nonsense. You were a scared little girl who had lost everything. You did what you could to survive, and that was more than enough. Besides, no matter how cruel the past was, in the present, everyone had their own free will, and they still chose their paths. Even Jellal Fernández, in the end, regained his freedom but still chose the same path of self-destruction..."
Erza blinked at being scolded, then smiled and kissed Allen. "If you keep acting this sweet, I'll eat you up~"
Hearing his own words thrown back at him by his fiery redhead made Allen scowl in amusement. In response, he smacked her backside.
"Ah~"
"Daring to use my spells against me, Erza?" Allen teased, giving her another spank.
"Wait!– Ah~"
Erza immediately regretted provoking Allen, but it was too late. Allen flipped her over and pinned her beneath him. He admired Erza's beauty, and she gasped at the sight of her lover's body.
Once again, they melted into each other...
....
That afternoon...
The sun was already high in the sky when they finally left the cabin, both of them carrying a different air about them—though only Allen showed it with absolute confidence. Erza, on the other hand, couldn't stop the blush that came every time she looked at him.
On the road, the roar of a monster interrupted the peace. A massive creature, covered in scales and venom-dripping fangs, emerged from the forest. Erza instantly drew her sword, ready to fight. But Allen raised his hand, stopping her with a simple gesture.
"Well, well, well, I don't know if I should thank you or curse you. On the one hand, you made me search for you for hours yesterday; on the other, you gave me a chance to spend time alone with one of the most beautiful women in this world... It's ok, die without pain."
He snapped his fingers. In an instant, the monster disintegrated into sparkling dust, vanishing completely as if it had never existed.
Allen leaned closer to her ear, whispering in a low, teasing voice, "If you're going to watch me that intensely maybe we should go back to the cabin"
"..." Erza's blush was immediate, but this time she didn't look away. She gazed at him with a mix of admiration and unspoken desire.
....
On the way back to Magnolia, Erza asked questions like when he would return. Allen assured her that not only would he be coming back often, but in the future, she would even be able to find him in other worlds if she wished. For now, though, while he was still bound by his bet with Lucifer, leaving whatever world he was in would be difficult.
Like the other girls, Erza grew upset—no, furious—upon learning about Lucifer and what had transpired. It was no wonder Allen had acted so differently when they first met compared to how he was now.
When they returned to the guild, the atmosphere shifted. The moment they crossed the doors, many eyes turned to them. Lucy and Mirajane were the first to notice the strange air between Allen and Erza.
Juvia immediately used her miraculous sense of smell and caught Allen's scent on Erza and vice versa. She was far too indiscreet, and the entire guild found out. Congratulations followed immediately, but silence fell just as quickly when Mirajane released a demonic aura.
Lucy and Juvia weren't any better, but Allen, being the so-called god of harems, managed to handle the situation by promising that once he returned from his week-long solo mission, he would clarify his relationship with them.
When they remembered that they all already had rings, the girls felt embarrassed, while the guild erupted in complaints, calling Allen a bastard for hogging half the beauties—unaware that Laki, Cana, and Levy were grinding their teeth in frustration.
Allen spent a few days going on dates with the girls, everything calm and peaceful. During that time, the system managed to connect both worlds, and amidst the girls' tears, Allen said goodbye—but only for the equivalent of a week.
....
...
....
Allen crossed the door, and the moment he did, he felt liberated. All of his power had returned to him—his old strength and the new.
Allen felt that with his speed, he could cross the entire universe from one end to the other in just an instant. Every image in his mind could become reality with a single thought. Every desire could be fulfilled just by willing it—that was The fire of The Will. On the other hand, the Dunamis Demiurgos seemed to have opened a door he hadn't even known existed. Allen felt he could create anything he wanted. It was as amazing as it was terrifying.
How strong was he now? Allen felt that any enemy from his past—with one exception—could appear, and he would crush them with a snap of his fingers. His power was so overwhelming that he even thought he could attempt to lift infinity itself like Lucifer...
But then a bucket of cold water hit him. It was true—even with all this power, it was still nothing against him... and the scariest thing was that even Lucifer wasn't absolute. He was weaker than The Presence, and Allen remembered from the comics that when multiple entities united, they had managed to defeat him—or at least corner him. So Lucifer, that terrifying being, was not Invincible.
Allen wondered if becoming stronger was really the answer. He had sought power to protect his universe—universes—where his loved ones lived. But the stronger he became, the stronger his enemies became as well. So wasn't it just a vicious cycle...?
Artoria – Perhaps being just a normal man would've been easier... but that only means living in ignorance.
Allen heard Artoria's voice and smiled helplessly. The system must have allowed them to hear his thoughts.
"It's true..."
Wednesday – Don't forget everything you've lived through. Don't forget how we've seen universes destroyed, unable to defend themselves.
"That... you're right."
Esdeath – Remember that weird vampire who claimed to have hunted a thousand Spiderman? It didn't matter if they were powerless heroes, they still became food...
"Kuh, I still have a score to settle with those bastards..."
Makima – The zombies... that world was doomed because those who were supposed to protect it failed...
"Yeah... Marvel Zombies was a nightmare. Everyone, heroes or villains, died..."
Rebecca – That's right. That universe with the mind-controlled Superman, the one where Darkseid had won—there was only death and despair. If you didn't have strength, you'd have been dead.
"The Anti-Life Equation was dangerous..."
2B – Master, in my world, humanity perished and went extinct. Please, don't give up...
"Thank you. I never planned to."
Albedo – Thanks to you, I'm free. Thanks to you, I found happiness. It doesn't matter if it's heaven or hell, I'll follow you, Allen-sama... darling~
"You've become so sweet, Albedo. Thank you."
Harley - Since I followed you, I decided to be with you always, trust me, Daddy!
"Always"
Nokotan – Nun! Don't worry, I've been doing special training, and next time that bastard shows up, I'll be able to help you!
"Oh, that makes me feel safe, thanks."
Bocchi – I think if y-you want to run away... Nobody should blame you. But I know you won't. So I won't either. At least this way, you won't be alone...
"That... thank you, Hitori."
Jalter – Stop wavering, that doesn't suit you! Just like you forced me to submit and wear this maid outfit, with that same egoism, don't you dare bend your knees! Remember, my sword still points at your heart!
"Thank you... I'll remember that."
Kurumi – My my~ everyone giving words of encouragement, and Jeanne-chan comes out with her tsundere act. Well, I'll say it: Master, please don't give up! ❤️~
"You're the same as always, but I'll take those words as your true feelings..."
[Host—no, Allen, don't worry. Together until the end! We'll defeat Lucifer and anyone else that stands in our way, god or otherwise!]
"Haha, thanks to you too..."
Allen's mood had improved a lot, so he decided to cross. Normally, the system would connect him directly to another world, but this time Allen wanted to try something different.
So the door connected him to the "outside."
What exactly was the outside?
To put it simply, one thing needed to be made clear: different multiverses exist. Take DC's world for example—The Presence is the absolute being, the god who created Lucifer Morningstar and Michael Demiurgos, who in turn created the entire cosmos, all of existence.
This "everything" is what's called a multiverse. But it's curious, because within that multiverse, you don't find Marvel, The Boys, Invincible, Kung Fu Panda, Harry Potter, etc. We can confirm this because Marvel was created by another absolute being called "The One Above All." It's curious, since both cosmologies often cross over, but each has its own entities keeping it functioning.
So there are at least two different multiverses. But to make things simpler, Allen usually separates this "everything" into "worlds." Because he knows that even if The Presence decided to erase all of creation, it wouldn't affect the other worlds Allen has been to.
Thus, "the outside" is not the space between universes, but the space between "worlds."
Allen appeared in absolute nothingness, where laws and concepts lost meaning and logic, and only chaos reigned. In that place, paradoxical and abstract storms raged endlessly.
"This brings back memories..." Allen murmured.
The first time he was here, he nearly died in the chaotic space-time storms. But now, they were no more than a soft breeze to him.
Makima – "So, what are we doing here? This isn't exactly the most romantic place for a date with your lovers~"
Rebecca – "Be honest, you just want to show off how strong you are, right? You wanna impress us, so we'll jump on you the first chance we get!❤️~"
Artoria – "Don't be vulgar, Rebecca..."
Rebecca – "Yes, mama~"
Allen grinned shamelessly. "Haha, of course I want to show off a little in front of pretty girls, but also... I feel that I might be able to find the world of each of you..."
"...!"
This time, all the girls fell silent, shocked to hear that.
"As expected, maybe I'm being arrogant... but I feel that if your worlds are relatively close to me, I might be able to sense your connection to them. What do you think?"
Makima, Esdeath, Jalter, Artoria, and Harley didn't have much attachment to their old worlds—whether because their stories had ended, or because they no longer felt connected to those places, aside from curiosity about what happened after their deaths. In Jalter's case, vengeance.
But others were different. Wednesday had her family. Nokotan had left her friends. Kurumi still had a purpose to fulfill. 2B continued to feel sorry for her sisters who were fighting for nothing. Rebecca only wanted to see if any of her friends had survived—and if not, tear Adam Smasher's face off herself. As for Bocchi... she worried Allen the most. The girl was the very embodiment of social anxiety, and forcing her into a world full of battles and absurdities had been far too cruel.
Now, the man they had trusted, the one they had given their love to, was telling them he could finally take them home. Immediately, several of them wore complicated expressions.
Allen realized that at this moment, some of them might have to choose between staying by his side or returning to their worlds.
"Relax. I don't plan to let you go. Haha, if I go there, I'll introduce myself to your parents if possible. I'll create a connection with those worlds so you can go and come back at will," Allen smiled mischievously. "Or are you planning to abandon me after using me?"
"Never!"
All of them answered instantly and in unison—including Jalter and Kurumi, which surprised Allen.
Kurumi – "Y-you know, you promised to lend me your power to kill someone..."
Jalter – "A-and I won't leave until I make you pay for all the humiliation you've put me through!"
"I see~" Allen looked into the horizon. For many, this place was incomprehensible, but for Allen, he could now see worlds. Too many. All different, stretching endlessly into infinity.
"So… who goes first?"
....
After some discussion, one of the dolls appeared beside Allen. He immediately shielded her, because even though the dolls were strong, they weren't strong enough to survive here without his help.
"Give me your hand..." Allen said softly.
She extended her hands, and Allen took them. Then he closed his eyes, trying to feel something.
At first, he wasn't sure what it was, but Allen suspected that being born in a specific world gave you something like a fingerprint—some kind of "essence," "scent," or "resonance" tied to your original world.
Allen felt his consciousness stretch across a distance so vast that using numbers to measure it was impossible.
Even he couldn't help but be impressed at the level he had reached. But soon, he smiled and opened his eyes.
"I found it..."
Allen immediately pulled the girl into his arms and vanished. It seemed the result was... positive.
Allen had found the first world belonging to one of his dolls!
