'Fairy Tail' Chapters 526, 527 Spoilers: August's Shocking Backstory Revealed! Will the King's Child Ever Gain His Father's Love?
Why was the king's child unloved? The long-running manga series "Fairy Tail" gave the most unexpected answer to this question in its latest chapter.
It turned out that Larcade was nothing more than a demon from the book of Zeref, as the Emperor said so himself. He was a prototype to Natsu, the experimental body that didn't turn out to be as strong as the one who got the name Dragneel. But that only made one-half of the shocking revelation that manga artist Hiro Mashima left his readers with by the end of chapter 526 titled "My Name Is..."
Zeref and Mavis did have a child, but he's not really who everybody thought he was. As the battle between August and Gildarts continued, right alongside the panels featuring the earliest memories of Zeref's true son, it eventually led to the revelation that the Emperor himself has unknowingly met and named his own child, "August."
How will this unexpected turn of events affect the ongoing battle between Gildarts, the strongest mage in the Fairy Tail Guild, and August, who could potentially be the strongest mage in existence, having an enormous magic within him that's neither light nor dark, being the unknown love child of Mavis and Zeref?
Just when Gildarts thought he already had August all figured out, August might lash out with a force that could bring Gildarts and his daughter Cana down in a snap. And there is still the impending threat of Acnologia having arrived in town to join the fray.
A huge battle for survival is about to break out in the next chapters of the manga series "Fairy Tail," which has reportedly reached its final arc. Will Zeref ever know the real identity of his most trusted right-hand man? Will August ever have a chance to tell his father who he really is? And will Acnologia's surprise appearance lead to unexpected alliances, or will The Black Dragon crush them all up before they can even think about banding together?
A new chapter of "Fairy Tail" comes out in the next issue of the "Weekly Shounen Jump" magazine.
Meanwhile, the upcoming full feature movie "Fairy Tail: Dragon Cry" is expected to give fans a sneak peek into how the manga series will end. The said movie has been scheduled for release in Japan on May 6.
