There was no noise and the tension was at its highest.
Yet Shin did not feel threatened.
Acnologia continued to look at Shin and the others, but especially at Shin, and then flapped her wings to descend to the ground.
On the ground, Acnologia got down on all fours and approached Shin.
Everyone was on guard and ready to fight but Shin slowly approached Acnologia to everyone's surprise.
" Dad!" shouted Erza, worried.
"Honey, what are you doing?" shouted Irene too.
"It's okay, don't worry" said Shin calmly.
Finally, Shin reached out and touched Acnologia's muzzle, who closed her eyes and seemed to purr with satisfaction!
This scene shocked and disturbed everyone.
Acnologia, the black dragon, was being stroked and seemed to be purring on top of it all.
Suddenly, Acnologia's body began to glow and the dragon's huge body disappeared to make room for a beautiful girl of about 17-18 years old.
She had long black and blue hair, beautiful blue eyes and the face of an angel.
She was dressed in an elegant but rather light black dress and necklaces.
Completely different from her dragon appearance, although she had become more feminine.

"Big brother!" the girl shouted with a huge smile as she jumped on Shin.
"W-What?! Let go of my father!" said Erza as he separated the girl from Shin.
"Why are you separating me from my big brother?! Who are you?!" said the girl with some anger.
"I'm his daughter!" said Erza holding on to her father to show his ownership.
"Calm down" said Shin completely lost.
The two calmed down as they all went to sit where Shin, Irene and Erza were before.
"Then why do you call me Big Brother? Who are you?" asked Shin looking at the girl sitting in front of him like a little dog.
"Well, as far as I know, I'm a soul that was attached to this body and I inherited your memories. I don't know who I was before I became a soul" the girl said without lying.
'How?' wondered Shin.
[It is possible that when you killed Acnologia, your attack contained Life energy and the element of darkness, linked to Death energy. Therefore, it is possible that when you destroyed the soul of the real Acnologia, these two energies created a path and attracted a new soul].
"But why do you call me Big Brother?" asked Shin still curious about this fact.
"You called me here, I have some of your energy in my body and I inherited your memories. We're like family so you're my big brother" said the girl with some laughter and a happy smile.
Seeing her, Shin couldn't refute, it was his responsibility and he couldn't leave such a young, nice girl alone.
She has no memory of her life before so she is a bit like a newborn only she received Shin's memories, which still gave her some knowledge.
"Okay, so what's your name?" asked Shin as he crouched down in front of her.
"I don't know, I can't remember" said the girl with a sad look on her face.
"Since it's like that, why not Logia?" asked Shin as he suggested a name for her.
"Yes! Logia, my name is Logia!" the girl said as her sad expression disappeared into a big happy smile that made both of them laugh.
"Hmph" Erza who saw the scene snorted and turned her head to the side.
"Ahah, are you jealous?" said Irene humorously as she saw her daughter's behavior.
"Not at all!" denied Erza.
Erza had to share her room with Logia to her displeasure because there was not enough room.
---------------------------------------------
\ 1 year later /
It had been 1 year since the war had ended and Logia had officially returned to the family.
The whole guild and the others couldn't believe their eyes when they learned the story and who she was.
During this year, Shin came to really consider Logia as his little sister but it was complicated because she reminded him of someone.
Irene saw her as her sister-in-law but mostly as a little sister.
While with Erza, she still bickered over trifles and Shin's affection but their relationship had become strong, like sisters even though sometimes Logia reminded Erza that she was her adopted aunt to annoy her.
At the moment, Shin and his family were in a mountain far away from any civilization.
Shin had taught Logia to control her power because she had inherited Acnologia's body but also all her powers and might.
And since then, Logia had a perfect mastery of her power, the power of an S rank (middle).
The place where he trained was a construction site. The whole place was destroyed with craters everywhere.
Shin felt that he would soon become an S (High) rank, which meant that he would soon change the world.
The problem was that when he changed worlds, he couldn't return to Fairy Tail until his mastery of the space element reached the superior rank.
At the highest rank, he will be able to travel and return only to worlds he has already visited and at the highest rank, he will be able to travel the universe at will.
So in the meantime, his family had to go to the divine realm so that he could see them again whenever he wanted, which requires Erza to say goodbye to his friends.
Having spent the whole day training, in the evening a big farewell party was prepared in Fairy Tail.
There were many tears but Erza knew she would see them again.
"Are you ready?" asked Shin.
After the party, they returned home, prepared their stuff.
"Yes," said Irene softly.
"Of course," said Zeref impatiently.
"Yes!" said Logia excitedly, seeing the divine realm with her own eyes.
"Yes..." said Erza with less excitement than the others.
"Don't worry, you'll see them again, I promise," Shin said to reassure his daughter as he patted her head, earning a jealous pout from Logia.
This made Erza smile again.
Shin took them and they all went to the divine realm.
They all moved into Shin's house while Zeref and Mavis said it would be temporary.
They quickly settled in and got used to their new home.
They all planned the next day to go train with divine beasts to become stronger.
Of course, the divine beasts are obedient to Shin and will hold back.
That evening, while everyone went to bed and slept, Shin left the divine kingdom.
"Where is it" said Shin as he closed his eyes with concentration for several minutes
"There" said Shin after feeling a huge fluctuation in space-time.
*CROOAR*
He transformed into his Phoenix form and flew towards the fluctuation at high speed.
\ 10 minutes later /
Shin finally arrived at the location of the fluctuation, which was above the ocean.
In front of him was a huge vortex with a great suction force.
"Here it is, the crack in space-time" said Shin happily.
The famous crack in space-time used to imprison Acnologia.
From the beginning, Shin didn't want to use it, but to absorb the crack, just like Acnologia did.
Thanks to this, he could surely become S ( Top ) rank as well as increase his mastery of the element of space and time without second effect like Acnologia.
This thought really excited Shin, especially for the time element as he found it the most difficult to increase.
Shin resumed his human form and approached the rift.
Within inches of the rift, Shin's eyes glowed a starry blue while his body glowed pure white.
Shin used the element of space and time to attract those in the rift.
The rift began to flicker and the elements surrounding it moved towards Shin and were absorbed.
Shin had his eyes closed to concentrate as he felt his power increase at a great rate as his knowledge and mastery of the element of space and time increased by leaps and bounds.
After a good hour of meditation and gathering, Shin slowly opened his eyes as the starry blue aura around his eyes and white aura around his body spread around him slowly and quietly.
Cracks in the sky appeared towards Shin as everyone in the world felt that the space around them had become heavier as time seemed to slow down.
This phenomenon lasted for several seconds before it stopped and the whole world fell into panic and incomprehension.
"State"
[Name: Shin Ai / Age: 18 (physically and mentally)
Breed: Phoenix God
Title: God Of Life, Celestial Phoenix, Hope
Bloodline: God of Life
Total power: SS (Low)
Elements : Fire (Supreme), Water (Medium), Earth (Medium), Wind (Medium), Light (Medium), Darkness (Medium), Space (Superior), Time (Medium)]
Shin smiled at his status and was mostly amazed at how powerful he had become through the rift. Even though he found it quite weird and funny to have a better mastery of the space element than the elementals.
"In the next world, I will have to increase my elemental mastery at all costs" Shin said with determination.
Then Shin noticed that the rift in front of him had not yet closed to his surprise.
*BOOM*
Suddenly, the rift intensified and glowed.
The sea below him shook fiercely and the sky was covered with clouds and thunder.
The world seemed to tremble and spin out of control.
[Warning! The host has exceeded the power that the world can bear]
[The world is being destroyed]
'Shit' thought Shin.
He hadn't thought about it at the time when he saw his status, but the maximum power level attainable in this world is rank S (top).
Going beyond that, the world wouldn't be able to handle it and could be destroyed. Shin didn't think about it at first because he didn't think he would increase his power that much.
[The host will be urgently transported to a higher world through the rift.Pain may be encountered during the journey to the next world]
Shin was fȯrċɨbŀƴ suċkėd into the rift before him.
He wanted to resist but it was no use. He could no longer stay in this world without fear of destroying it.
So he let himself be suċkėd into the rift.
During the journey between space and time to the new world, Shin was overwhelmed by an immense pain.
'This is what "pain" is all about' thought Shin before he passed out from the pain.

\ ¶ In a forest /
In the sky above a forest, cracks appeared in the sky as the sky shattered and formed a hole in space into which a falling man emerged.
*BOOM*
The man spat into the ground in the middle of the forest next to a mini lake.
A green energy was coming out of the man's body which seemed to heal him.
Meanwhile, a huge white wolf appeared behind the trees around the unconscious man.
While next to the unconscious man, a blue egg-shaped stone was lying right next to him.
Unbeknownst to him, the appearance of the man and the rift was felt throughout the new world by all the powerful beings and even the realm where the rulers of this world lived.
