Internet Magic in Fairy Tail

The pure white mage radiated an aura of both mystery and overwhelming power.

Natsu kept his gaze fixed on Nate, who stood not far away. Strangely, he couldn’t sense any magic power coming from him.

This was odd, considering the astonishing surge of power Nate had just released.

“But why?”@@novelbin@@

“You’re asking why…?”

Nate thought for a moment, then smirked.

“Because my magic power is so vast, it’s like air. Do you normally notice the air around you?”

“I can feel air—how else would I breathe, Nate? Are you stupid or something?”

Nate said nothing. “…”

There’s no fun in arguing with this guy! How dare he call me stupid?

“Come on, then. I’ll give you three free hits,” Nate said with a huff.

Grinning, Natsu clenched his fists. Black flames ignited and roared around him.

“Better watch out, Nate!”

Bending slightly, Natsu crouched low like a coiled spring. In an instant, he launched himself like a cannonball straight at Nate.

True to his word, Nate didn’t even raise a hand to defend himself.

“Fire Dragon’s Iron Fist!”

Natsu’s flame-wrapped fist slammed into Nate’s chest with a deafening roar.

BOOM!!

The terrifying flames engulfed Nate completely and evaporated the lake behind him in an instant.

The once-vibrant lake vanished, leaving a barren, cracked lakebed behind, as if it had endured three years of drought.

The few fish that managed to survive flopped weakly in the dry mud, only to be roasted alive by the intense heat, filling the air with the aroma of cooked fish.

The guild members watching from afar stood frozen, their expressions slack.

“So hot…” Evergreen muttered, snapping open a folding fan and waving it frantically.

“We should move back a bit!”

But no one moved.

All eyes remained locked on the battle.

Natsu’s fist rested against Nate’s abdomen, his face a mask of disbelief.

“Maybe you should hold back a bit, Natsu,” Nate said casually, as if nothing had happened.

Grabbing Natsu’s wrist, he gave it a light flick, sending Natsu flying back into the lakebed.

Stunned, Natsu spun through the air, his mind blank for a moment.

Adjusting his posture mid-flight, Natsu landed on all fours, clawing at the dry ground like an enraged predator to dissipate the momentum.

Deep trenches carved into the earth stretched nearly a hundred meters before he finally came to a stop.

“Fire Dragon’s…”

Even as he skidded to a halt, Natsu inhaled deeply, his chest swelling as he unleashed his next attack.

“ROAR!!!”

A torrent of flames surged forth, spanning over a hundred meters, streaking straight for Nate.

With the guild behind him, Nate raised his right hand, palm open.

Before the flames even reached him, an immense hexagonal magic shield formed from his seemingly boundless magic power.

Natsu’s dragon roar collided with the shield and was immediately deflected skyward.

From the guild’s perspective, it looked as though the attack had made a sharp right-angle turn, shooting straight into the sky before erupting like a massive firework above Magnolia.

“One more strike,” Nate said with a calm smile, raising a single finger.

“Move me even half a step, and I’ll concede defeat.”

Natsu stared in disbelief. His attacks had been deflected so effortlessly—it was ridiculous!

“Dragon Slayer Secret Art: Unseen Fire Form…”

Still crouched, Natsu’s body began to change. Scales rapidly spread across his cheeks, forehead, chin, arms, and other parts of his body.

Through Nate’s Six Eyes, it was clear—Natsu was no longer human.

He had become a dragon.

A humanoid dragon.

In the next moment, Natsu transformed into a black, flaming arrow, hurtling straight at Nate.

“Black Lotus: Exploding Flame Blade!”

As Natsu’s devastating technique bore down on him, Nate extended his fingers and caught Natsu’s head mid-strike.

CLANG!!!

Black flames entwined with crackling lightning met Nate’s palm, warping the surrounding space on impact.

At the collision point, a powerful shockwave radiated outward.

“Satan Soul: Murciélago!”

“Requip: Adamantine Armor!”

“Open, Gate of the Draco!”

“Help me, Lasteigeeney!”

Realizing the impending danger, the spectators unleashed their own magic to protect themselves.

Mirajane transformed into her Murciélago form.

Erza equipped her defense-specialized Adamantine Armor.

Lucy summoned the Jade Dragon, Zirconis.

Future Lucy unleashed the Sea King Dragon, Lasteigeeney!

Together, they shielded the guild building.

Even Igneel transformed into his dragon form, spreading his massive wings to shelter the guild members beneath him.

BOOM!!

The shockwave ripped through the area, finally dissipating into the sky with a deafening explosion that echoed across the city.

For a moment, dust and debris filled the air, creating a sandstorm-like scene that covered several hundred meters.

“Cough… cough…”

Evergreen, pale with shock, coughed and muttered, “Are these two idiots trying to destroy Magnolia?”

“Natsu’s Three Dragon Force Mode is already terrifying enough, but what is this White God Mode Nate is using?”

Far away in the eastern forest…

A golden-haired fairy residing in her treetop home looked out the window, her eyes filled with curiosity as she stared into the distance.

……

After a long moment, the dust settled.

The guild members watching from a distance could finally see the combatants clearly.

Standing tall was Nate, completely unscathed in his pristine White God Mode, while Natsu lay sprawled on the ground, fast asleep like a baby.

“It’s Nate’s overwhelming victory,” Happy muttered, waving a paw and shaking his little head in mock exasperation. “I warned Natsu, didn’t I? There’s just no way anyone can beat Nate.”

“You didn’t say that back in the guild, you lying cat,” Lucy retorted. She then tilted her head in confusion. “But how did he win? I couldn’t even see what happened.”

“One hand blocked Natsu’s Dragon Slayer Secret Art, and the other struck the back of his neck, knocking him out,” Igneel explained in a deep voice.

“But that’s impossible. In his current state, Natsu’s defenses were at dragon level. For him to be knocked out in one hit…”

In Dragon Force Mode, Natsu essentially became a humanoid dragon. For him to be taken down so easily, and without any visible injuries, could only mean that the gap in power was insurmountable.

“What exactly is this White God Mode?” Mirajane asked curiously, reverting from her Murciélago form. “It’s my first time seeing Nate use something like that.”

Erza, crossing her arms, offered an explanation: “It’s the result of merging with the Fairy Heart, granting infinite magic power. Essentially…”

She paused for a moment, deciding not to mention that this mode wasn’t exclusive to Nate. Not only could she activate it, but Ultear could as well.

Knowing Nate, he’d probably share the activation app with every single one of his girlfriends, Erza thought with a mixture of amusement and irritation. That shameless, flirtatious scoundrel—he had once told her to keep their relationship under wraps, and now look at him!

…

In the distance, Nate hoisted the unconscious Natsu over his shoulder. With a wave of his hand, he rewound time itself.

The scorched battlefield quickly healed, and the parched lake was restored to its former glory within seconds. In mere moments, it was as if the fierce battle had never even happened.

“So much energy… wouldn’t it be better spent dragon-hunting in a game world?” Nate muttered to himself, shaking his head.

Deactivating White God Mode, he carried Natsu back toward the group.

“By the way, I wonder how the Coal Dragon is doing these days,” he mused.
