After removing irrelevant individuals, the alliance meeting finally commenced.
Acnologia was not in the mood to chair the meeting, so King Philos arranged the battle.
The first point is the allocation of the number of participants:
First, the number of Dragon Slayer Mages was tallied. Each king reported the number of men they could commit to the main battle, ranging from a hundred to over a thousand, for a total of 14,800.
Two thousand men will remain as a last resort. If the war is won or the outcome is close, these last two thousand men will be deployed. If the war is likely to fail, these two thousand men will disperse and flee, preserving their last hope for the future.
Then there are the armies that possess ordinary magic, numbering three million. Their magic is unlikely to be effective against dragons, so they can be used as magical support, cannon fodder, meat shields, or healers, to create opportunities for dragon-slaying mages to kill dragons.
Each Dragon Slayer Mage is equipped with 300 support spells. After the meeting, the spells of all mages will be tallied and allocated accordingly.
The second point is food and money.
War cannot be fought overnight, and food is essential. Since the production of food varies from country to country, the amount that each country can provide depends entirely on its own conscience.
However, King Philos sent people to conduct a special investigation, and he would not tolerate any kingdom that deliberately cheated or shirked its duties.
The location for storing the grain is yet to be determined in the Kingdom of Philos. The Kingdom of Philos has set up a powerful defensive magic array, which would likely be able to withstand the dragon attack. The grain can be teleported to the battlefield using spatial magic.
In terms of finances, the various countries jointly provided the funds. The currency of this era was magic crystals, whose main purpose was to restore the magic power of mages. In this era of scarce magic power, restoration methods were essential.
Moreover, soldiers also need encouragement; it's unrealistic to expect them to fight desperately solely based on their passion and sense of responsibility.
The third point is the location of the war.
This is very likely not something they can choose. However, they can issue challenges to all the dragon kings, trying to choose deserted areas. After all, a dragon's roar can change the landscape, so terrain-based warfare is no longer relevant.
The fourth point is the timing of the start of the war.
This is pending. Once they have completed their plans and relocated the ordinary people, the decisive battle will begin, with an estimated timeframe of three months.
This is the result of a brief discussion among the kings. Unexpected events may occur. If any kingdom is attacked by a dragon, neighboring kingdoms should provide assistance as much as possible.
The meeting concluded, and everyone began to disperse, with the kings departing one after another.
Before leaving, the bald king invited Acunorokia to visit his kingdom, but he declined.
You can only play after a major war, and by then it's hard to say whether your kingdom will still exist.
Acunorokia found the bald king somewhat interesting and suddenly asked, "What is the name of your kingdom?"
Upon hearing this, the bald king's face lit up with joy, and he said, "Kingdom of Fiore, if you come to visit, I can arrange anything you need."
His kingdom is a medium-sized kingdom with a total population of over seven million and seven thousand mages, but it still faces the risk of destruction due to the occasional attacks of dragons.
If a powerful figure like Acnologia were present, the situation would be completely different; even the Dragon King wouldn't dare to offend him easily.
"The Kingdom of Fiore?"
Acnologia was surprised. This was interesting. The Kingdom of Fiore was the center of the future storyline, and the Fairy Tail guild was located in Magnolia Town there. She might actually settle there someday.
He thought for a moment and said, "Does your kingdom have a place called Magnolia Town?"
No, not at all.
The bald king shook his head; the kingdom was only so big, he was quite certain it wasn't.
"Forget it! If it's gone, it's gone. Just record me as the hero who saved the world in your kingdom's history."
Acnologia said it casually, not really caring, after all, it was four hundred years later, and who knew what the future held.
After saying that, he led the Dragon Slayer team away.
"hero?"
The bald king watched Acnologia's retreating figure, scratched his shiny forehead, and couldn't understand why this man wanted fame. Judging from his personality, he didn't seem to care about such things.
Magnolia Town...
That's a good idea; you can just find any small town and change its name.
Furthermore, the ownership of the town could be changed to Acunolokia, so perhaps when Acunolokia visits, she might be so happy that she decides to stay.
...
While the human race was still actively preparing, the evil dragons and the benevolent dragons had already started fighting.
Just two months after the Alliance War Conference, a traitorous human defected to the dragon's side, revealing the Kingdom Alliance's plans.
This news also made the dragons nervous. Although humans were as weak as ants in front of them, with the creation of dragon-slaying magic, a large number of dragons had fallen one after another, including dragon kings. This situation made them feel a sense of crisis.
Most importantly, there is the Dragon Slayer Archmage Acnologia. The existence of this monster is simply unbelievable. Despite being a weak human, he can transform into a jet-black dragon and slaughter ordinary dragons as easily as eating and drinking.
The human race is vast in number and possesses terrifying potential; it must be destroyed as soon as possible. Monsters like Acnologia must not be allowed to continue to appear.
Osta, the Red Dragon King, was the leader of the evil dragons. He took the lead and, together with other dragon kings, announced to all dragons in the world that all dragons had gathered and were beginning to indiscriminately slaughter the human race.
Meanwhile, the benevolent dragons, seeing the human race's plan for a decisive battle, couldn't sit still. Although they liked the human race, they were still dragons after all. If the evil dragons were eliminated, they might also be targeted by the human race, or even be wiped out.
Before humans had dragon-slaying skills, they could coexist peacefully. Now they feel like the Sword of Damocles is hanging over their heads.
One-third of the good dragons chose to join the evil dragons, some chose to stand by and watch, and the remaining good dragons stood firmly on the side of the human race.
They had lived alongside humans for a long time and had been saved by them. When they realized that the dragons were preparing to attack while the human alliance was being formed, they all risked their lives to be the first to take action.
They will most likely die in this battle, but buying time for humanity can be considered a way of repaying the kindness they received.
Before the battle began, Igneel, the Fire Dragon King who was training Natsu outside, also received the news and did not dare to delay for a moment, quickly gathering the other four dragons.
They temporarily entrusted the five children to Anna Heartfilia, the guardian of the Eclipse Gate, while they went to the battlefield to fight.
As the strongest dragon king on the benevolent side, he is the only one who can rival the red dragon king, Osta.
If they don't return from this battle, then Anna Heartfilia will take the five little ones to the future alone.
