A magic merchant infiltrating Fairy Tail

'Damn it, my left hand, left foot, and even my internal organs...'

"Gildas!!" ×N

No one expected this turn of events, not even Kira. Gildarts ultimately couldn't escape this attack...

This power is too exaggerated! Facing it directly is even more despairing than when I read the comics back then!

I really don't know how Gildarts survived this time in the original work. Did he think that no one could survive the attack from the black dragon, so he just left?

Kira didn't have time to think it through. He abandoned Natsu, who had almost recovered, and ran towards Gildarts—the situation was different from the original timeline, and who knew if Gildarts would be in danger if he wasn't treated in time.

I clearly identified myself as a mage, so why do I always end up playing support during team fights?

The black dragon opened its mouth wide, and magic gathered.

This attack method startled everyone, instantly reminding them of Natsu's magic.

'Is that a roar?'

Kira noticed Acnologia's attack and panicked. Glancing to the side, he saw the others still running towards them and shouted, "Don't come any closer! Spread out!"

My God! What are you doing here? Are you waiting to be taken down with one blow? This palm strike has the power of 400 years of internal energy. Which of you can withstand it?

Due to internal damage, Gildas was unable to speak and could only signal with his eyes: "What are you doing here? Run!"

Kira pretended not to see, abandoned Natsu, and reached out to pat Gildarts: "Lend me your magic!"

In theory, Word Magic can actually use spells like Gildarts's Shattering Magic, such as [Shatter], [Disintegrate], [Disperse], etc., but this requires the mage to have a certain level of proficiency in this area, and the higher the proficiency, the better the magic effect.

However, "borrowing other people's magic" can circumvent this requirement, allowing Kira to use magic that is close to or even stronger than that of the original mage when he doesn't know a certain magic. This is also why Kira was able to use Dragon Slayer Magic.

"Analyze...transmit...transform...reconstruct..."

A dragon's roar erupted from the black dragon's mouth, and Kira simultaneously raised his hand to block it: "Crush!!"

The others weren't idle either. Although Kira told them not to come over, these guys wouldn't listen.

Seeing the black dragon and Kira exchanging magical attacks, they naturally stepped forward to help. The seven of them had different magics, and some of them were completely useless in this situation. Fortunately, there was Erza, who was clear-headed.

"Everyone, give your magic to Natsu! Natsu, use Dragon Slayer Magic!"

"Whoa!!" With a surge of willpower, Natsu swayed as he struggled to his feet and charged forward, shouting, "Leave it to me!!!"

Gathering the magic power of seven people? They have absolutely no experience with this before. Putting aside whether they can do it, even if they can, can Natsu withstand it?

In just a moment, they gave up thinking about the problem. It could work! It had to work even if it didn't!

In times like these, trusting in your companions is the right thing to do!

Without the slightest hesitation, six colors of magic—red, blue, gold, purple, green, and white—immediately surged toward Natsu.

The power of bonds is great, so great that it can enable people to unleash power that is beyond their own comprehension!

Natsu's magic power was running at full capacity, gathering the magic power of the seven people into one body, transforming it into two earth-shattering flames in his hands, determined to burn the roaring dragon in front of him to ashes.

In a daze, it seemed as if a crimson fire dragon phantom appeared on his body, and faint dragon scales appeared on Natsu's face.

Dragon Power!

Kira had just used the power of the Dragon Seed, which caused the power to leak out, and then he was unleashed after absorbing the magic power of the other six people!

"Dragon Slayer Secret Technique, Crimson Lotus Blazing Blade!"

Although it's said that the left side of a match usually loses, there's no camera now, so Kira can only convince himself that he's standing on the right.

The three spells clashed and exploded together in the air, instantly stirring up countless snow waves and rocks, followed by a massive avalanche and landslide, with strong winds blowing everyone away.

Kira could see clearly that his own Shattering Magic and Roar first neutralized part of the attack, and then Natsu's Dragon Slayer Magic followed up with a second round of attacks. Even so, he still couldn't completely block the Roar!

Seeing the attack about to strike, Kira reached into his pocket and threw out a card.

The card landed and transformed into his most familiar magical artifact—a shield made of energy-absorbing stone that could negate most magical attacks!

The shield wasn't large, but it was enough to protect Kira and Gildarts behind him.

Even though Kira tried his best to resist, he was still blasted back about a hundred meters by the roar. Gildarts was in an even worse state. He was now lying on the ground with serious injuries and could not move. Naturally, he was also rubbed against the ground for about a hundred meters.

Like I said before, thankfully this is on snow!

"Erza, Natsu, well done!"

After the residual force subsided, Kira sat panting on the snow. If it weren't for Natsu's attack, he might not be alright. However, now that the energy-absorbing shield was completely destroyed, he might not be able to withstand another roar.

"Is this the fighting power of a dragon?"

"It's completely beyond what humans can resist!"

Upon seeing this, Kana, Elfman, and the others couldn't help but sigh. If they had been hit by that, they probably would have been blown to bits, leaving no trace of their bodies.

Everyone wore a visibly pessimistic expression. Kira thought for a moment, but ultimately decided against saying that Acnologia might not have used his full strength, for fear of discouraging them.

"Even Gildas is injured, what can we do..."

Oh right, Gildarts is still lying there! Kira quickly dug Gildarts out from under the snow and then cast a healing spell on him.

The dragon's black wings were still in the sky, so it seemed that it couldn't be relied on to fight once and then leave.

Although Kira couldn't read its expression, he had a gut feeling that Acnologia had become slightly interested because he had blocked its attack, which was not a good sign!

This can't go on, we need to boost morale!

"Don't give up!" Kira yelled, sitting on the ground. "You guys still owe me money! Don't even think about getting away with it! You all better get back alive and pay me back!!!"

Chapter 93 Three-Person Combination Magic

The members of Fairy Tail are all well-mannered, so they definitely wouldn't default on their debts.

Kira's shouts clearly had an effect; the group exchanged smiles, and hope rekindled on their faces.

It seems these guys have had a change of heart and realize that owing money is wrong. I'm relieved.

Especially for Cana, who owes the most money, she should work hard to pay it back after she goes back. Kira decides to give her another helping hand and help her reunite with Gildarts after they go back.

Gildarts is a veteran S-class mage, so he must have a lot of savings. With a father like that, paying back the money shouldn't be a problem.

Wait, Gildas hasn't had any income for three years?

"Kira is right, don't give up hope!"

"Gildas?"

Kira looked at the middle-aged man who was struggling to sit up, his face showing surprise. He was amazed by the man's strength and perseverance: He truly deserves to be the guild's top performer; he was able to get up so quickly.

He knew the effects of the healing magic he used. With injuries like those he had just sustained, he certainly hadn't recovered enough to stand up and talk in such a short time. Anyone else, given their injuries, would not have been able to get up right now.

From the moment Acnologia appeared until now, less than 10 minutes have passed, and after only four attacks, this side has already lost its fighting capacity.

Gildarts was seriously injured, and Erza, Gray, Lucy, Cana, Loki, and Elfman had just given all their magic power to Natsu, so they could no longer fight. All that was left was Kira, who had less than half of his magic power, and... Natsu, who was still in his Dragon Power state.

To be honest, Kira really didn't expect Natsu to awaken the power of the dragon here.

It was unexpected, but acceptable.

In the original work, Natsu first awakened the power of the dragon in the Tower of Paradise, defeating Jellal after consuming the power of the magical spirit. The second time was in the Oración Seis dungeon, where he defeated Nobunaga after consuming Jellal's Flame of Punishment.

He just gathered the magic power of the other six people in one go, which is definitely more than Gerald's magic power!

Seeing that the black dragon had no intention of leaving, Kira sighed, "It seems that we have no choice but to use that method!"

"Huh?" Gildas looked at Kira in surprise. This kid has some tricks up his sleeve?

"What method?"

Kira pointed his right hand at his head, and a battle plan was immediately sent to everyone's minds.

Telepathic magic isn't exactly high-level magic, but it has significant strategic value.

Kira didn't say it directly because he knew Acnologia could understand, and if Acnologia overheard and became wary, he would be truly helpless.

Meanwhile, those who received Kira's message all looked doubtful.

"What?!"

"This is……"

"Does it work?"

"You can give it a try!"

"Understood!" Natsu shouted. "Let's begin!"

The first step of the operation was to have Natsu, in his Dragon Power form, rush forward as the vanguard, while the others covered him and bought time.

"Fire Dragon's Iron Fist!"

"Fire Dragon's Claw!"

"The Fire Dragon's Horn!"

"The Fiery Dragon's Blazing Splendor!"

With attacks coming one after another, and being carried away by Happy's "True Carry," Natsu charged at Acnologia without any restraint and started fighting.

Although the attack effect is minimal, the dragon's power can still delay the enemy to some extent.

Erza assisted from the side, and countless fine weapons were also used to attack the black dragon, not hoping to have any effect, but only to delay its progress slightly.

In the second step of the operation, Elfman, Loki, Cana, and Lucy, along with the heavily injured Gildas and the almost forgotten tavern owner Poole, retreated to the side to prepare for their escape.

As they passed Kira, a card was handed to Cana; it was the Evolution Fairy Airship he had prepared for his escape.

Step 3...

"Are you ready?"

Three figures stood side by side, Kira in the middle, and on the left was Gray, who was the fastest at transforming, and had already taken off his shirt.

On the right is Winter, who has received the souls of the Black and White Goddesses. Her hair has grown longer and is half black and half white, making her look like a delinquent girl. She has lost some of her coolness and gained some of her holiness. At this moment, Winter has used the Ice God-Slaying Magic to eat a bunch of ice with a clatter, and her magic power has surged.

In front of Kira was the Ice Demon King, whom Kira had recently captured. At this moment, it was completely unconscious, possessing only its magic power and spells.

The two said in unison, "Ready!"

"Then, let's borrow some magic!"
