**[00:01] ---**
What happened to Gray and the
others after battling Doriate,
**[00:06] ---**
who was told to defeat
all Fairy Tail wizards?
**[00:34] ---**
No... It feels like...
**[00:37] ---**
Oh no... It can't be...
**[00:45] ---**
A demon from the Books of Zeref...
**[00:52] ---**
What the hell is goin' on?
**[00:56] ---**
Me, too?!
**[00:58] ---**
Hey! What is this?
**[01:04] ---**
What is this?
**[01:06] ---**
Something feels off!
**[01:08] ---**
Gray!
**[01:13] ---**
Sorry, Happy and Carla!
**[01:18] ---**
I see. So that's what it is!
**[01:22] ---**
I was just afraid of it!
**[01:27] ---**
I just didn't try!
**[01:32] ---**
I'll lend you my body!
**[01:35] ---**
Work through it!
**[02:02] ---**
You fools opened it.
**[02:05] ---**
The gates of Hell...
**[02:07] ---**
There's no going back now.
**[02:10] ---**
And...
**[02:22] ---**
There it is!
**[02:24] ---**
Gray!
**[02:25] ---**
Happy!
**[02:26] ---**
Carla!
**[02:26] ---**
Run, you guys!
**[02:38] ---**
What is that?!
**[02:39] ---**
I dunno, but it wants to eat us!
**[02:43] ---**
It's the enemy!
**[02:45] ---**
Just beat it, Gray!
**[02:47] ---**
This is no time for me to be wastin' magic!
**[02:50] ---**
I may be able to melt this ice!
**[02:55] ---**
Really?
**[02:56] ---**
From Raven...?
What's she doing here?!
**[02:59] ---**
Never mind that!
You can melt this ice, right?!
**[03:02] ---**
Not for sure...
**[03:04] ---**
...but yeah! I'll do it!
**[03:07] ---**
All right! Then I'll take care of this bird!
**[03:11] ---**
This mountain is the Eternal Flame!
**[03:12] ---**
What?!
**[03:13] ---**
Melt it! Can you?!
**[03:16] ---**
All right!
**[03:18] ---**
I'm counting on you, Gray!
**[03:18] ---**
I'm counting on you, Natsu!
**[05:01] ---**
Come an' get some!
***SIGN*** Voice of the Flame
**[05:16] ---**
That thing really does mean to eat us!
**[05:19] ---**
Natsu-san!
**[05:20] ---**
Be careful!
**[05:21] ---**
Like I'm gonna be an easy morsel?!
**[05:34] ---**
Natsu!
**[05:35] ---**
There he goes!
**[05:47] ---**
Natsu!
**[05:48] ---**
I'm fine!
**[05:50] ---**
The flame...
**[05:52] ---**
Bring back that Eternal Flame!
**[05:57] ---**
The flame is what'll save
this village, I bet!
**[06:12] ---**
Leave it to me!
**[06:14] ---**
I don't know what this ice is
that covers the village...
**[06:19] ---**
I couldn't manipulate it or even melt it,
**[06:22] ---**
but I was able to send it
coursing through my body!
**[06:26] ---**
No idea if this ice has the same property...
**[06:37] ---**
Make the magic of the ice
go through your body?
**[06:40] ---**
And then what will you do?
**[06:42] ---**
Ice Make!
**[06:44] ---**
I'll remake this village's ice into my form!
**[06:48] ---**
Incredible... You can do that?
**[06:51] ---**
I don't know yet.
**[06:53] ---**
So I'll try it on the giants later!
**[06:56] ---**
I'll start with this mountain.
**[06:58] ---**
I'm gonna defrost the Eternal Flame!
**[07:02] ---**
Get back, everyone!
**[07:24] ---**
Steam is coming off the ice!
**[07:34] ---**
All right!
**[07:36] ---**
Yay!
**[07:37] ---**
The ice is melting!
**[08:08] ---**
Huh?
**[08:09] ---**
What does it mean?
**[08:14] ---**
The flame isn't there!
**[08:17] ---**
I don't believe it...
**[08:22] ---**
Oh no...
**[08:29] ---**
What is this sensation?
**[08:32] ---**
This magic...
**[08:36] ---**
The Eternal Flame...
**[08:39] ---**
...went out?!
**[08:40] ---**
It can't be...
**[08:42] ---**
It can't be!
**[08:43] ---**
Maybe it went out the moment it was frozen.
**[08:47] ---**
No.
**[08:49] ---**
I may have made a mistake.
**[08:54] ---**
Then it's impossible to
thaw out the giants.
**[08:59] ---**
After blazing for hundreds of years,
the flame went out...
**[09:04] ---**
Is this village beyond saving?
**[09:14] ---**
It's not out!
**[09:21] ---**
Powerful residual thoughts...
**[09:23] ---**
Proof that it's alive!
**[09:26] ---**
What do you mean, "alive"?
**[09:29] ---**
Look at that!
**[09:36] ---**
What is it?
**[09:37] ---**
The altar of the flame.
**[09:39] ---**
Look closely!
**[09:44] ---**
It's still burning slightly.
**[09:46] ---**
But the flame looks so weak!
**[09:49] ---**
With Natsu-san's flames...
**[09:51] ---**
I'm sure Natsu-san can rejuvenate that flame!
**[09:56] ---**
Yeah!
**[09:57] ---**
Cherry Blossom Hair...
**[10:03] ---**
Natsu!
**[10:06] ---**
Okay, I'm on it!
**[10:27] ---**
Natsu!
**[10:28] ---**
Natsu-san!
**[10:33] ---**
Here it comes!
**[10:34] ---**
Everybody run!
**[10:45] ---**
It's going to hit the giants!
**[10:57] ---**
I need to use your head, old man!
**[11:08] ---**
Brilliant Flame...
**[11:10] ---**
...of the Fire Dragon!
**[11:23] ---**
At the altar!
**[11:31] ---**
I'm not done yet!
**[11:42] ---**
What is this?
**[11:43] ---**
Natsu?
**[11:44] ---**
You overdid it, Natsu!
**[11:49] ---**
Crimson Lotus:
**[11:51] ---**
Exploding Flame Blade!
**[12:17] ---**
The flame...
**[12:22] ---**
The guardian deity...
**[12:27] ---**
...is alight!
**[12:40] ---**
Happy! Take me over to the Eternal Flame.
**[12:45] ---**
Why?!
**[12:51] ---**
The voice I heard...
**[12:54] ---**
The residual thoughts I sensed...
**[12:57] ---**
I see...
**[13:01] ---**
The Eternal Flame... Don't tell me...
**[13:05] ---**
It was you, huh?
**[13:14] ---**
It's been 400 years...
**[13:17] ---**
...son of Igneel...
**[13:40] ---**
He's...
**[13:41] ---**
...one of the dragons
that came out of Eclipse!
**[13:47] ---**
But you went home to 400 years in the past!
**[13:50] ---**
400 years...
**[13:53] ---**
I've been burning for 400 years.
**[13:58] ---**
So you've been alive all this time, old man.
**[14:01] ---**
Long time no see!
**[14:03] ---**
Alive? No. Not quite.
**[14:09] ---**
My magic, Milky Way,
shaped my soul into this form.
**[14:14] ---**
Then...
**[14:15] ---**
I suppose I'm dead.
**[14:20] ---**
And it happened long ago.
**[14:23] ---**
You're not aware of it?
**[14:26] ---**
Aware? It's more like...
**[14:29] ---**
...my memories are foggy.
**[14:34] ---**
This is... I am...
**[14:37] ---**
Get a grip there, old man!
**[14:39] ---**
I remember you, son of Igneel.
**[14:42] ---**
What does it mean?
**[14:44] ---**
Even though the soul of Zirconis had
all of its memories that time...
**[14:47] ---**
Maybe because of the ice...
**[14:49] ---**
The ice?
**[14:50] ---**
In the first place, residual thoughts
**[14:53] ---**
are a form of very weak magic
acting against a very strong will.
**[14:58] ---**
Regarding the Ice Magic,
he was frozen for a long time,
**[15:03] ---**
which destroyed part of his memory.
**[15:06] ---**
Ice...
**[15:09] ---**
Ice!
**[15:11] ---**
Everything was covered in ice.
**[15:14] ---**
Old man, are you talkin' about this village?
**[15:17] ---**
What happened?
**[15:20] ---**
Um... Tell me.
**[15:24] ---**
That man did it...
**[15:27] ---**
He was mistaken...
**[15:30] ---**
That man?
**[15:32] ---**
That's right.
**[15:33] ---**
Just one human turned my world to ice.
**[15:47] ---**
Was he an Ice Wizard?!
**[15:50] ---**
Just one person's magic transformed
the village like this?!
**[15:57] ---**
Why...?
**[15:59] ---**
That man...
**[16:01] ---**
...thought I was a demon.
**[16:04] ---**
He froze the whole village to extinguish me.
**[16:09] ---**
A wizard who hunts demons...
**[16:12] ---**
A Devil Slayer...
**[16:14] ---**
Devil Slayer?!
**[16:16] ---**
Not Dragon Slayer or God Slayer...
**[16:20] ---**
...but Devil Slaying Magic?!
**[16:22] ---**
Magic to kill demons?
**[16:25] ---**
This is the first I've heard
of that kind of magic.
**[16:28] ---**
I see...
**[16:30] ---**
Is that why the ice from
this village worked on *him*?!
**[16:39] ---**
An Ice Devil Slayer...
**[16:42] ---**
Who is he?!
**[16:46] ---**
I don't remember.
**[16:48] ---**
What... am I...?
**[16:51] ---**
You're the guardian deity of this village!
**[16:54] ---**
The giant flame!
**[16:59] ---**
Please!
**[17:01] ---**
Shine on this village again!
**[17:04] ---**
Please save this village!
**[17:07] ---**
Flare...
**[17:11] ---**
Please...
**[17:15] ---**
Guardian deity...
**[17:17] ---**
I am...
**[17:19] ---**
That's right.
**[17:22] ---**
My name is Atlas Flame,
**[17:25] ---**
the giant flame...
**[17:31] ---**
I created this village.
**[17:34] ---**
Attaboy! You're remembering!
**[17:38] ---**
My village's woes are my pain.
**[17:42] ---**
My village's sadness are my tears.
**[17:45] ---**
With the last lingering scent of my soul
**[17:50] ---**
and the son of Igneel's flames...
**[17:54] ---**
...I shall set this village free.
**[17:59] ---**
I am a Fire Dragon,
and my name is Atlas Flame.
**[18:04] ---**
I am the guardian dragon of this village.
**[18:10] ---**
It's hot! Gray, cool me off!
**[18:13] ---**
Awesome flames...
**[18:15] ---**
His soul is disappearing...
**[18:22] ---**
Igneel...
**[18:24] ---**
Festival of the Dragon King...
**[18:26] ---**
Acnologia...
**[18:29] ---**
Zeref...
**[18:30] ---**
I remember.
**[18:32] ---**
I remember everything.
**[18:37] ---**
The strongest and vilest of demons
born from the books of Zeref...
**[18:41] ---**
END.
**[18:45] ---**
400 years ago...
**[18:47] ---**
...Igneel couldn't destroy END.
**[19:20] ---**
What is this?
**[19:23] ---**
The warmth of the flame...
**[19:28] ---**
The ice... is melting...
**[19:31] ---**
Everyone did it?
**[19:36] ---**
This is unusual.
**[19:40] ---**
There are humans wandering in the village.
**[19:43] ---**
That's it for now.
**[19:45] ---**
Minerva!
**[19:47] ---**
We'll settle this eventually.
**[19:50] ---**
You and me, on a marvelous stage...
**[19:54] ---**
Don't let yourself be
tainted by the darkness.
**[19:56] ---**
You're stronger than that!
**[20:00] ---**
I won't be tainted by the darkness.
**[20:03] ---**
I will cover the whole world in darkness.
**[20:11] ---**
Look! The village!
**[20:15] ---**
It's turning back to normal...
**[20:19] ---**
Old man...
**[20:37] ---**
It's so warm...
**[20:45] ---**
Atlas Flame's residual thoughts...
**[20:48] ---**
...have disappeared completely.
**[20:51] ---**
The last bit of his soul
left in this world...
**[20:54] ---**
...is strong enough to
generate this much power!
**[21:06] ---**
END, the demon Igneel tried to destroy?
**[21:11] ---**
First I've heard of that...
**[21:13] ---**
Aye...
**[21:15] ---**
And an Ice Devil Slayer...
**[21:31] ---**
Silver-sama...
**[21:34] ---**
You've been summoned to headquarters.
**[21:37] ---**
Let me at least visit a grave in peace.
**[21:42] ---**
This time, the Nine Demon Gates
are being ordered to come in...
**[21:47] ---**
...including you,
Ice Devil Slayer, Silver-sama.
**[21:52] ---**
Please follow the order to return.
**[21:56] ---**
You needn't be so scared of me.
**[21:59] ---**
I'm not gonna eat you.
**[22:19] ---**
I only eat demon souls.
**[23:56] ---**
The flames of Atlas Flame
melted the ice in Sun Village.
**[24:00] ---**
Flare and the giants were
able to smile again.
**[24:04] ---**
And after completing the mission,
we return to Warrod,
**[24:09] ---**
who tells us about a certain
person's "soul word."
**[24:15] ---**
Next time: Song of the Fairies.
**[24:19] ---**
The bond between fairies is passed down.
