Chapter 474: Restoration Mage Jerry (Second Update)
Chapter 474: Restoration Mage Jerry (Second Update)
If Bora's application of flame magic could be studied and improved upon, Jerry thought that with some time, he might be able to achieve similar results.
However, the flame magic Natsu demonstrated next was something that Jerry felt he would find extremely difficult to replicate, even if he knew the principle behind it.
It had already surpassed his current understanding of flame magic.
What Jerry saw was Natsu, when faced with Bora's purple magic attack, suddenly inhaling deeply and swallowing the entire stream of purple flame into his stomach.
Moreover, he could clearly feel that after Natsu consumed the purple flames, his magic power actually increased.
"Fire Dragon's Roar!"
Natsu roared, slamming his fists together, and a massive red magic circle in the shape of a dragon's head instantly appeared.
Then, with a deep breath, he blew out a powerful torrent of flame that resembled a tornado, shooting from his mouth with a force and intensity far greater than when Fire Dragon Norbert breathed fire.
The large ships on the shore, the remaining henchmen of Bora, and the empty houses that had been abandoned in terror were all directly destroyed by this powerful flame.
Bora managed to avoid the attack by quickly ascending into the air using his own purple flames.
At this moment, Happy flew to Lucy's shoulder and, pinching his tiny waist, explained:
"The Dragon's Lungs breathe out flames, the Dragon's Scales absorb flames, and the Dragon's Claws grasp flames. Natsu is using an ancient, mysterious magic that transforms a human body into a dragon's physique, known as Ancient Dragon Magic."
While Happy was explaining, Natsu, with flames attached to his hands and feet, significantly enhanced his body and easily leaped into the air to continue the fight with Bora.
"But I've never heard of such magic before!"
Lucy, standing nearby, looked shocked as she watched Natsu completely dominate Bora, clearly surprised by this method of eating flames and using flame magic in close combat.
Jerry immediately realized that this Ancient Dragon Magic Natsu was using was probably rare in this world.
At the same time, his interest in the world's magic grew even more.
"Actually, this magic was originally used to combat dragons and is called Dragon Slayer Magic. It was taught to Natsu by Fire Dragon Igneel", Happy explained further.
"Dragon Slayer Magic, taught by a Fire Dragon. It seems the dragons in this world are quite different from those in the Harry Potter universe", Jerry thought to himself.
In the Harry Potter universe, dragons had intelligence similar to that of ordinary animals and could not teach magic, let alone use it themselves. Their ability to breathe fire was purely instinctual.
He felt that if he ever encountered a dragon in this world, he might be able to find a way to make a contract with one.
Additionally, from the magic books he had seen today, he learned that this world not only had legends of dragons but also powerful beast kings and demons capable of destroying entire cities.
These could be potential targets for future encounters, where he could beat them half to death and then use Pact Magic to bind them.
"Fire Dragon's Iron Fist!"
On the other side, Natsu, completely immune to flame, ended the battle with a crushing advantage, punching Bora so hard that he flew through the air and crashed into several buildings, finally bringing the fight to an end.
"Wow, that's amazing, but that's a bit over the top, isn't it!"
Watching Natsu defeat Bora and wave as he ran over to their side, Lucy first marveled at how strong he was. But then, seeing the half-destroyed Hargeon Town due to their battle, she couldn't help but grimace.
"Jerry, you're here too!"
Natsu, spotting Jerry, immediately greeted him with enthusiasm.
He had a very good impression of Jerry, who had generously treated him and Happy to lunch during a crisis.
" apprehend the culprits, grab them!"
Before Jerry could respond, several hundred armored guards suddenly appeared from a distance, charging angrily in their direction.
Clearly, their target was Natsu, who had destroyed a significant portion of the port.
"Trouble, let's run, I don't have the money to pay for this!"
Seeing the guards, Natsu, who seemed quite experienced, was about to flee with Happy.
However, Jerry laughed and extended a hand to stop him.
"No need to run, leave it to me!"
Before Natsu and Lucy could react, Jerry raised his hand and began chanting a spell at the more than a hundred buildings damaged by the battle.
"Restore!"
A powerful magic power emanated from Jerry, enveloping the damaged buildings.
Then, everyone watched as time seemed to rewind, and the damaged buildings were restored to their original state within seconds.
After casting the spell, Jerry turned to Natsu and Lucy with a smile.
"I forgot to mention, I'm a mage too. You can call me the Restoration Mage. I'm very skilled at restoration magic, though, like Lucy, I haven't joined any guild yet."
"Restoration magic? There's actually magic like this in the world?"
Lucy, seeing Jerry's magic repair a large part of the damaged city, was once again in shock.
At that moment, she realized just how vast the world was, and how many powerful magics existed that she had never even heard of.
First, there was the ancient Dragon Slayer magic that could consume flames to strengthen the body, and now there was this miraculous restoration magic that could repair anything.
She couldn't help but feel that she had been a bit narrow-minded back home.
Moreover, she also realized that you can't judge a book by its cover. A seemingly ordinary teenager who had collapsed from hunger on the street turned out to be a powerful mage from Fairy Tail.
Even a wealthy and good-looking young man, who seemed to know little about magic, possessed a remarkable magic that left her in awe.
But she was also incredibly happy, because this was the very reason she had left home to become a mage and embark on adventures. Otherwise, she might as well have stayed home as a pampered young lady.
"Jerry, please join our guild!"
At the same time, when Natsu saw the effect of Jerry's magic, his eyes lit up with fiery enthusiasm. He immediately placed his hands on Jerry's shoulders and invited him with the most sincere and earnest tone.
Fairy Tail, the strongest mage guild in the Kingdom of Fiore, was also the guild with the greatest destructive power.
Often, due to their reckless approach to missions, they caused significant damage to local buildings during battles with enemies, leading to frequent warnings and hefty fines from the Magic Council.
And Natsu, the Fire Dragon Slayer Mage, was among the worst offenders.
It couldn't be helped; his Dragon Slayer magic was incredibly destructive and had a wide attack range. Plus, he tended to get carried away in battles, making it hard for him to control his power.
