(Third Person POV)
Maliketh backed away from Selene as he shook his head, "Enough of this." He said simply, "I have no ti for this."
In a swift motion, he flapped his wings, launching himself away. Selene watched as Maliketh flew away with trendous speed, disappearing into the distance.
Jason saw this and he grimaced, "Selene..." He said quietly, "This is not good, who knows what she'll do..."
Selene rely looked down at Jason, seeing his wounds slowly healing, "Jason." She said as she descended down to the ground, "What is the aning of this?"
Erza, who was still holding Jason, began to sweat, "Who is this woman?" She asked, "Her power is..."
"Don't antagonize her." Jason said, "You can't win against her."
Selene landed gently in front of them as she flicked her hair back, "Answer my question, Jason." She said with a serious expression, "Who was that dragon?"
"Selene." Jason said, "I...."
"Why did he sll like my son?" Selene asked
Jason pulled away from Erza as he straightened up, trying to process what just happened. It all happened too fast for him. He had just found out that Maliketh, a Dragon, was his son and as it turns out, he was Selene's son as well.
"Makes sense....I think...." Jason thought to himself, "I an....I don't know. Is he our son from the future? Mine and Selene's? I....guess so. Selene wouldn't co all this way if that wasn't the case."
"I don't understand fully myself, Selene." Jason said, "All I know is that he wants to kill ."
Selene raised her eyebrow, "Is that so?" She said, "A dragon who slls just like my son, Kurnugi, wishes to kill you?"
Jason sighed, "He's not just that, Selene." He said looking down, "It's hard to believe but as far as I know, he's our son."
Selene widened her eyes, "What?" She said, "How is that possible? Our son? Jason, you didn't impregnate ."
Erza looked at Jason, "You...." She started, "Never mind, of course, you did."
"He's from the Future." Jason told Selene, "He was sent here by Him, Selene. By Alatreon."
Selene began to sweat slightly, "W-What did you say?" She said with shock, "Alatreon?!"
Jason nodded with a serious expression, "Yea. Alatreon sent him here to kill ." He said, "I don't know why or how, but that's the case. I didn't think he would be your son as well, but his eyes are identical to Erion's and he wields my Black Light. He's my son, I can tell now clearly."
Selene noticed as Erion galloped all the way over to where they were, Natsu and Gray on his back.
"O-Oi!" Gray said, "What the hell?"
"Who's this?!" Natsu exclaid, "Her Magic Power is insane!"
Erion sniffed the air as he looked at Selene, "Dragon...." He said, "Pretty lady..."
Selene was taken aback by this, "This young dragon....his speech is mature...." She said, "That shouldn't be the case, he's barely a year old, Jason."
Jason nodded, "Yea, he's got a mind of his own...." He said, "Anyways, one thing is for sure, Maliketh is an Adult Dragon that can match Erion's power."
Erza nodded, "Yes." She said, "This all happened too fast, but I can tell he's a monster."
Selene looked at Jason, "If what you say is true, Jason." She said, "If he's our son....then you and I....we're...."
Jason looked at Selene, "I don't know." He said, "Erion is Mine and Irene's son. But I am married to Mavis. Maybe he's been conceived already and I have a baby I don't know about."
He narrowed his eyes slightly at the Moon Dragon Goddess, silently telling her that he's suspicious of her.
Selene smiled, "Oh please." She said, "Do you truly think I would hide sothing so splendid from you? If I were to be with your child, I would've taken you with by now, Jason."
"Whatever the case, we can breathe for now." Jason said, "I didn't expect for August to show up too. Not only that, Maliketh was strong, really strong. I don't think I would've been able to win so easily."
"Well, not since you're going up against your son." Erza said, "I know you'd be holding back."
Selene looked at Erion who was still staring at her, "Hm...." She said, "Your son, Jason, he's grown quite large...simply amazing..."
Erion leaned down and snorted, "Dad....Pretty Lady is Dragon...." He said
"Relax." Jason told him, "Alright, Erza. You and the others take Erion back to Magnolia. You two, get off him."
Natsu and Gray jumped down from Erion's back and as soon as they landed, Jason snapped his fingers and the Young Dragon instantly shrank down and transford into his human toddler form.
"Ah!" Erion said as he was caught by Erza's arms, "Dad! why!"
"Because I say so." Jason said, "Go on, guys."
Jason snapped his fingers again and summoned The Archangel's Might, the massive warship manifesting itself from thin air above them.
Erza looked at Jason, "Are you sure?" She said, "This is a big deal, Jason. You may need our help."
Jason shook his head, "This is sothing I gotta do myself." He said, "I need you to keep Erion away from this, okay? Last thing I want is for him to get seriously hurt or worse."
He then watched as they were transported into the ship via a beam of light and disappeared.
"Felicity, take them back to the city." Jason said to a mic in his hand
"Yes Sir." The Warmind's voice was heard from the ship's speaker
He then watched as the ship flew away at rapid speeds.
Jason then turned around to face Selene, who was crossing her arms, "So..." He said, "You and I, huh?"
Selene tilted her head, "You need to explain more thoroughly, Jason." She said as she waved her hand
Jason felt as he was enveloped in her magic power, suddenly being transported to a different location. He had anticipated this, which is why he sent the others away ahead of ti.
They were in the sa room that Selene had first taken them back when they had sex.
"What do you want to know?" Jason said, "I'll try to explain."
Selene went to sit down in a chair and crossed her legs, "You ntioned Alatreon, The Blazing Black God." she said with a serious expression, "What do you know of his involvent in this?"
Jason rubbed his neck, "I don't know much about that." He said, "I'm assuming he used the Ravines of Ti to send Maliketh back in ti.....but for what reason aside from killing , I don't know."
Selene narrowed her eyes, "You don't know much about him, do you?" She said, "And of your son's true nature."
Jason looked at her, "What are you talking about?"
"Erion, you boy, he's the reincarnation of a legendary Cannibal from centuries ago." Selene said, "I was shocked when I found out, but such is the case."
"The Dragon Eater." Jason said, "I was told that. Is that why he's so hostile against Dragons and Dragon Slayers?"
"I don't know about Dragon Slayers, but yes, he's inherently violent against Dragons." She said, "And as for Alatreon. Oh, how I wished to not hear that na, Jason...."
"Alatreon is a wretched God..."

[Sowhere in the Fiore Border]
"You ran?!" Nirvana exclaid as she walked over to Maliketh who sat in front of a campfire, "You had Jason Darkborne in your sights and you ran?!"
Maliketh, in his human form, rely watched the flas of the campfire, he didn't respond.
Nirvana flung her arms around frantically, "How useless could you be?!" She said, "His Holiness sent you here for a reason! And you couldn't do that?!"
Therion walked up to them, "Easy, Nirvana." He said, "Selene arrived at the scene. Maliketh had no choice but to retreat. This is bad, to think that one of Guiltina's 5 would appear...."
Nirvana looked at Therion, "But still!!!" She exclaid, "He should've killed him right there and the-"
She buckled down as she clutched the blade that impaled her from behind.
Everyone in the vicinity shouted in pure shock as Maliketh stood behind Nirvana, his blade in hand. He had stabbed her in the back as the cultist looked behind at him, blood coming out of her mouth.
"Y-You....." She managed
Therion was surprised by this, but didn't react, "Maliketh!" He exclaid, "You!"
Maliketh pulled the sword away slowly as Nirvana stumbled forward, "Silence, woman." He said seriously, "You're too loud."
As Nirvana stumbled, she turned to face Maliketh, clutching her wound as blood stained her dress red.
"Y-You....coward!" She said, "Stabbing from behind! I-"
In a swift motion, Maliketh swung his sword at her neck, instantly cutting through and decapitating the Acolyte with ease.
Therion widened his eyes in shock, "N-Nirvana!!" He yelled as he watched Nirvana's head roll on the floor in front of him
Maliketh gently pushed Nirvana's headless body as it plopped down lifelessly, "Enough...." He said with a deep and vicious tone, "Enough....I am Maliketh...The Primordial Knight..."
He released a deep and dark aura, shaking the entire camp where they were. Therion, who was a strong mage in his own right, had no choice but be frozen in place. He was feeling an overwhelming feeling of power emanating from Maliketh. From the mont he was sent here via the Ravines of Ti, Therion was aware that the Black Knight was strong, but he never imagine he would feel helplessly weak in his presence.
Maliketh's eyes began to glow bright blue as the light shone through his helm's eye-slits, "Filthy cultists....." He growled, "Your master brought forth for a single purpose, to kill Jason Darkborne!!!"
"Stay out of my fucking way."
