Voice-testing... after some enabling.

[deathsought]

... No. I've done enough harm. I won't ruin another world.

[She's not saying anything, but the word of ruining another world has her eyebrow quirked.

You have her attention, Zeref.]

Sorry, icons for him are surprisingly rare... xD;;

[deathsought]

[ Side-eyes. Coming into contact with living things in general, let alone other humans, always tends to end badly for everyone involved, himself included. There's a reason he lived in complete isolation for so long. ]

s'alright :3

[gallant_guardian]

Only Elidibs and Saint Ajor... Ultima possess such power.

[deathsought]

I've been called many things before, but... 'saint' isn't one of them. [ No, Grimoire Heart's supplication while trying to use him to create a mage utopia doesn't count. ] I have this power now, and there's nothing I can do about it.

Nothing except dying. [ Problem with being so freakishly powerful that he can't even consciously control it without turning into a murderous, unfeeling monster anyway (which defeats his purpose of wanting to control it): very, very few people are actually capable of doing it. ]

[gallant_guardian]

[She tilts her head.]

Your... power exceeded your ability to control it?

[onelastpromise]

[What's this about ruining worlds...? Consider Minato's attention gotten.]

Ruin a world...?

[deathsought]

Yes.

[ He had 400 years think about the mess he made. Too late now. ]

I won't let my mundane use me to hurt anyone else.

[onelastpromise]

[...Well then. You remind him of Ryoji, just slightly.]

Does your mun plan to find a game for you? Maybe you could try to push for one of the ones that cap or remove special powers, I hear there's a few out there.

[deathsought]

My mundane lacks confidence. There isn't enough 'information' on me, except for my history and the few appearances I've had.

Regardless, my mundane says 'never say never.' The one responsible for the 'enabling' sounds very determined. [ At least the motivations appear slightly more harmless than Grimoire Heart's. ]

[onelastpromise]

Yeah, that'd do it... Even if you end up someplace where your abilities aren't blocked at all, though, there's no telling who you'd meet. Maybe someone from another world would be able to let you live normally.

[There is always hope!]

[explodewiththerage]

Ah it's you! The bastard who turned my scarf black!

[And made his fashion sense clash horribly. UNFORGIVABLE. Yes Natsu has 'priorities' ]

[deathsought]

N-... Natsu... [ He already feels the tears coming back. He blinks them away, and readies himself. ] Are you able to kill me, now?

[ A rather blunt question. ]

[explodewiththerage]

[Yep he's still the same creepy crybaby Natsu remembers alright.]

Huh? Again with the killing you thing? The heck you talking about?

[Natsu's not one for killing unfortunately for you.]

I'll just kick your ass and get some answers outta you.

[deathsought]

I see... They still haven't told you. I guess I shouldn't be surprised. [ He's hesitant to tell Natsu himself. If he knew who he was dealing with, there's a chance he might be a bit more reluctant to fight him, which means he won't get his wish. ]

If you knew who I was and what I had done... You would understand why I must die.

[explodewiththerage]

[Points a finger at the man.]

You're Zeref. The big bad mage who made monsters and the whole Eclipse Gate. You really don't fit the legends.

[Ouch going straight for the pride.]

[four_quarts]

If you seek death for past crimes, I feel I should warn you that simply dying does nothing in the way of making up for "ruining" your world.

[So sympathetic Ghaleon. You're real good at motivational speeches, aren't you?]

[deathsought]

No, it wouldn't. [ He looks away. ] But it would solve one of the largest problems of them all... me.

[coupling]

Y-you ruined a world...?

[deathsought]

Yes. Mine.

[coupling]

Y-you couldn't have done it by yourself...

[deathsought]

But I did.

[drizzling]

You're....Zeref?

[deathsought]

[ A few seconds of staring. Finally, he sighs, and nods. There's a whole lot of reluctance, there. ]

[drizzling]

[Juvia doesn't know what to think of this, but her first thought isn't good. Instinctively, she takes a step back away from him]

What are you doing here? Where does your mun want to take you?

[deathsought]

A place called 'Exsilium.' And... possibly someplace else. I don't want to go.
