§  **Book of E.N.D.**

§  **Other Books of Zeref**

**Intelligence:** Extraordinary Genius (Zeref possesses centuries worth of knowledge, having mastered all of the Black Arts at a very young age and creating thousands of his own race of demons known as the Etherious. Zeref was also able to invent the R-System, which was a device that had the power to revive the dead, and he also created the Eclipse Gate, which allowed the user time travel. Zeref also managed to develop Neo Eclipse which was a spell that had the power to reset the time itself back at least 400 years. It is likely that Zeref is the smartest person in the entire Fairy Tail world that we have met so far)

**Weaknesses:** His magic will go out of control as long as he value life. After the Grand Magic Games Arc, it is shown that he no longer feels the need to value life, and that as long as the world continues to reject him, he will reject the world. Immortality granted by his magic can be removed due to the contradictory nature of the power.

**Notable Attacks/Techniques:**

**Ankhseram Black Magic:** It is a Black Art that allows Zeref to produce a black matter that kills any living thing it touches. This Magic seems to be uncontrollable at times, causing it to burst out randomly, killing anything within a certain radius around him. However, when Zeref forgets the value of and no longer cares about human life, he can fully control this Magic. Certain Magic Items can protect people from Ankhseram Black Magic, such as Natsu Dragneel's scarf. This Magic also appears, contrary to the nature of the Black Arts, unable to be learned, as Zeref only gained this curse-like Magic by upsetting the ancient God of life and death, Ankhseram, who apparently bestowed this upon Zeref due to his making light of the connections between life, death, and people in his race to bring his brother back to life. The side effect of this Magic is immortality and the inability to age. It is said that no matter what, Zeref can not be killed, even if he loses his head. He also does not age. Owing to his status as an immortal, if Zeref has gone at least a short amount of time with receiving damage occurring in successive intervals, his wounds heal without a trace.

§  **Death Predation:** The usage of this spell creates a dark wave that kills everything in the user's immediate vicinity.

§  **Dark Orb:** A spell that creates a dark mass in the formation of a ball, when used, destroys everything in its path.

§  **Dark Repent:** Zeref swipes both of his arms in a circular motion until the bottom of his hands meet. The hand on top has the index and middle fingers pointing upwards, while the other hand has the little and index fingers pointing downwards. While doing this, he is surrounded by a dark aura. This spell creates a huge vertical explosion, and its blast radius is seemingly controllable. It was used to kill Hades.

§  **Dark Strike:** Zeref punches his opponent with a death magic coated fist.

§  **Dark Flare:** Zeref raises his hand and fires a blast of death magic through his opponent's chest.

§  **Dark Cage:** Zeref ensnares his foe with several death magic tentacles.

§  **Dark Blast Inferno:** Zeref gathers flame-like dark matter in his palm and strikes his target with a powerful attack. This attack is so powerful, it briefly contended with a Savage Dragon Fire Form Natsu's Blaze of Savage Emotions.
