Fairy Tail: My Magic is Yugi Muto's Deck

Chapter 618 Star Spirit King: I'm Not Clean Anymore

The Celestial King stood tall in the middle of the battlefield, his giant-like body fluttering gently.

The starlight effect that flashes on the sword blade is incredibly intimidating.

"You are—the Celestial Spirit King?"

Animus's gaze narrowed slightly. He straightened up to meet the other's gaze and said in a deep voice, "I really underestimated these human mages. I never expected that woman would be able to summon the King of the Celestial Spirit Realm!"

In the current era, Dragon Slayer Magic is classified as ancient magic, a rare type of magic that most people admire and revere.

Little did people know that Celestial Spirit Magic, which is so common that keys can be bought with ease, has a history of development that predates Dragon Slayer Magic.

Even before the dragon race completely split into two camps, the coexistence faction and the radical faction, there were already traces of Celestial Spirit Mages in the world.

As the backbone of human mages at the time, they joined the battle between humans and dragons in the early stages of the "Dragon King Festival".

The strongest of them once summoned the Celestial Spirit King through a compensatory summoning technique, and killed a giant dragon that was very famous at the time.

Unfortunately, this did not change the overall situation of the battle; the dragons still held an absolute advantage.

Until Queen Irene Belserion of the Kingdom of Dolagunov imbued the dragon with magical power...

Only after dragon-slaying magic is formed in a person does humanity truly possess the power to fight dragons.

The events that followed are clearer: the black dragon Acnologia appeared out of nowhere and transformed into the "Dragon of the End" during the indiscriminate slaughter of the dragon race, becoming the sole winner of the Dragon King Festival!

Therefore, Animus knew of the Celestial King's existence.

"Now that you recognize me, things are much easier. My old friend's tears of pain and sorrow must be repaid with your blood!"

The Star Spirit King stepped forward, channeling his magic power into the Star Sword.

Animus showed no fear, his body crystals emitting a deep red light as he unleashed his aura to rival the Celestial King: "Fight if you want. My dragon claws are not inferior either. Why bother with those baseless excuses?"

"You flying lizards are still so savage. How could you possibly understand the bonds between me, my old friends, the Celestials, and the Celestial Mages?

Halfway through his sentence, the Celestial Spirit King suddenly noticed cheers coming from behind him.

A quick glance behind him revealed the scene, and the only king of the Celestial Spirit Realm couldn't hold back any longer. His lips twitched slightly, and his pupils widened.

To summon yourself, you must shatter one of the Zodiac Keys with the deepest bond—an unshakeable rule.

Because he was very clear about the depth of the bond between Lucy and the Celestials, when the Celestial King appeared here in his true form...

They assumed that Lucy would be immersed in grief over losing Aquarius and would cry incessantly.

but--

At this moment, Lucy's face was full of joy, and there was not a trace of sadness on her face.

Also, what's with that perfectly intact Aquarius key in your hand? And why is Aquarius still standing there without being forcibly deported to the Celestial Spirit Realm?!

"Great! It really works!" Lucy jumped up with immense joy and hugged Aquarius tightly with open arms.

"You brat, you've got all this dirt on you!" Aquarius cursed, but didn't push Lucy away.

Just then, Lucy noticed the Celestial Spirit King's gaze and quickly waved with a smile: "Yo, Sasshi, the bearded old man!"

"Sashibuli—my foot!"

Seemingly realizing he had somewhat lost his composure and compromised his dignity, the Celestial Spirit King coughed lightly to suppress his shock and confusion. He pointed at Aquaria and asked in a dignified yet composed tone, "What exactly happened? You didn't break Aquaria's key?"

"It shattered, but as soon as you appeared, Vadashi used the Arc of Time to restore it to its original state~"

Lucy held the Aquarius key high in the air. "How about that? Pretty cool, huh!"

Star Spirit King: "————" What a load of rubbish!

Do you expect me to give you a thumbs up and praise your intelligence?

I am the pinnacle of the entire heaven, the supreme king of the Star Spirit Realm, and yet, I was just taken advantage of like this?!

The king's majesty cannot be violated, and the rules of the Compensatory Summoning Technique were established precisely for this reason.

If any other Celestial Spirit Mage tried to take advantage of him in this opportunistic way, the Celestial Spirit King would definitely ignore them and walk away, and might even hold them accountable for disrespecting the rules.

Lucy, who genuinely loves the Celestials, is special.

Looking at the blonde girl's dusty yet incredibly bright smile, the Star Spirit King couldn't bring himself to say anything too harsh in his reprimand.

well----

After letting out a heavy sigh, the Celestial Spirit King chose to avoid the problem and focused all his attention back on Animus: "Be careful, those damned flying lizards, I'm furious!"

"You are the flying lizard, your whole family are flying lizards!"

Hearing the other person keep calling it a flying lizard, Animus snorted and his anger flared up.

Brave.

Although it is not qualified to be king among dragons, it is still the nominal king of this Stella Kingdom beneath its feet. How could it tolerate such humiliation?

boom!!

The full-blown power of the stars clashed head-on with the dragon's magic.

In an instant, sand and stones flew everywhere, and the entire battlefield, including the surrounding space, trembled violently!

"Lucy, what happened? That Celestial Spirit is—"

Cana and the other two withdrew from the battle and came to Lucy's side with Eclair and the others.

Everyone stared in disbelief at the two colossal figures vying for supremacy.

"The Celestial Spirit King, such a reliable old man~" Lucy winked smugly.

Because they needed to transfer all their magic to the Celestial King, Loki and Balgog returned to the Celestial Realm ahead of time and were not present.

"The Celestial King?" Kana repeated stiffly.

"The summoning conditions for the King of the Celestial Spirit Realm don't seem so simple, do they?"

Levy had previously gleaned some scattered information from Loki.

"Yes, it will indeed come at a great cost, but don't worry, it won't affect Vadashi at all."

After briefly explaining the situation, Lucy looked around suspiciously. "By the way, have you seen Chess?"

"Chess? That guy is probably showing off his love with Mira and Erza in the guild right now, isn't he?" Cana spread her hands, looking disdainful.

Upon hearing this, Wendy and Eclair nodded repeatedly, expressing their strong agreement.

Since their relationship was officially announced, the three of them have been showing off their affection quite often, regardless of the occasion!

In the distance, a card player with two women on his left and one on his right suddenly sneezed.

Well, the second half of what Kana said is correct; there's no element of false accusation or slander involved.

"Aha, ahahaha, thinking about it, it makes sense." Lucy chuckled awkwardly and scratched her head.

I tried to ask Chesgo to do a commission with me before, but I was ruthlessly rejected. How could he possibly be in the Kingdom of Stella, which is so far away from Fiore?

Sure enough, that warning I just received was just my imagination!

In the time it takes to say a few words, the auras of the Celestial Spirit King and Animus have already reached their peak.

The battle that will determine the final outcome has officially begun!
