Erza stood next to Jellal watching closely as the blue-haired man inspected the emblem. Nearly 3 minutes later the man sighed. "It's weird," he muttered.

"It seemed like I'm late" matured voice of a man greeted them. The man is tall. He's wearing a dark designer's formal suit although half of his face is covered with shadows his appearance itself was overbearing. There's a woman standing beside him. Seeing the man's face emerged from the shadow both Erza and Jellal bow their head in respect.

"Sir," both of them said in unison.

Combing his fiery red hair with his hand, he scoffs a little. "Don't be so rigid. I'm here to visit my old friend. Erza and Jellal moved to give him away. The man walks ahead to the grave while the woman behind him stopped in front of Erza. She was a beautiful middle-aged lady, with dark blue hair made into the hair bun. A small smile appeared on her face as she patted Erza's head gently.

"My heartfelt condolences Erza. He is an outstanding man and always bragged about his children. I know how close you were to him and he influenced you a lot. Please stay strong for the sake of your men. I know this Titania. She is strong and dependable on,"

Erza's eyes got misty with unshed tears as she feels the gentle caress on her head. Jellal watched with a small smile. Although she was known as one of the strongest fighters, she still has a big heart. Erza's only weakness was her Famiglia. But of course, that weakness becomes her strength.

The previous red-haired man stood quietly there and soon his wife accompanied his side. There's a frown on his lip, but his eyes were determined. Jude was his friend. They've been friends for a very long time so he was saddened to hear his loss. 

The man was the previous Dragon King, Igneel Dragneel. One of the most influenced people in the Underground world. He's the one who once undertakes the Slayer into one of the feared mafias family. 

The letter in his breast pocket felt heavy. That was sent to him a few days before Jude was killed. As if knowing what will happen, he left them with Igneel. Heaving out a sigh, he called for Erza who immediately came to his side. 

"We need to talk. There's something I need to show you,"
