@anon I don't know about the 'facing' but Well... yeah.... It is why I am FULLY supporting Zeref in this whole arc... ( ._.)

It isn't about believing in his commitment. His contradiction curse is active after all and he was prepared for that attack to kill him. If he died, then there goes his plan(unless Acno also has similar agenda). But he survived, so his plan to eradicate the error that is man will continue.

I'm not sure the 'us' is supposed to be used in this context... He judged the humanity of that world based on what he has experienced over 400 years and the deciding factor was how they handled the whole Eclipse fiasco. Regardless of the contradiction curse, if I were in his shoes, I would do the EXACT SAME. If I were cursed to wander around the world for all eternity, watching as humanity screws things up all the time(remember that the FT principles only spread 'properly' after the GMG and not before so humanity has been pretty darn shitty), I would want to kill myself or at least wipe out the eyesore so that I'd be the only sinner around. It's still unclear if Zeref wants to wipe out humanity 'alone' because there is still regular life and even non-human sentient life throughout the world. I'm thinking that it is only humanity though. If he was wiping out all life on Earth, then I'm not entirely for it, but hey, that's Ragnarok theory for you.

^not to be taken literally of course, but you get my point :P
