Chapter 49

All Good Things Come to an End is 49th chapter of Hiro Mashima's Fairy Tail.

Summary
The battle between Fairy Tail and Phantom Lord continues with Fairy Tail seemingly having the upper hand. Makarov then leaves to find Master Jose, and Gajeel immediately enters the fight, easily taking down Nab, Warren and some his own comrades. Elfman confronts him, but Natsu interferes. Though Elfman started telling Natsu that he can't interrupt a man's fight, he lets him continue the fight. Natsu, fueled by anger, attacks but Gajeel is able to hold his own.

As the battle between the Dragon Slayers rages on, the guild begins to shake, and everyone from Fairy Tail understands that Makarov is behind it, Makarov's Magic Power which is called Giant’s Wrath. Upstairs, Makarov’s anger is hitting its full force. On the highest room, he finds Jose, who is quiet and playful. Makarov then attacks him, only to find that it is a Thought Projection. He tells Makarov that he left in fear of a cataclysm (one that happens in case two of the Ten Wizard Saints fight each other). He then reveals that he took Lucy, asking the Fairy Tail Master whether he knows who Lucy Heartfilia really is. He then feigns an attack on her, distracting Makarov as Aria, Air of the Element 4, appears behind him. Before Makarov can recover from the shock, Aria uses his Mage to drain every ounce of Magic power from him. Makarov then falls down, and at this sight, Fairy Tail loses their fighting spirit.
