Internet Magic in Fairy Tail

Chapter 180: Magic Net’s Love Guru, Kain Hikaru

Chapter 180: Chapter 180: Magic Net's Love Guru, Kain Hikaru

Kain Hikaru stood there in his bizarre, almost perverted attire—just black pants and a cape—his abnormally pale skin stark against his towering two-meter-tall frame. With a loud vow to "kill this disgraceful couple," he leaped down from the tree, landing with a heavy thud.

"One of the Seven Kin of Purgatory?" Mirajane's expression grew wary. Just sensing his magic, she could tell he was a formidable mage.

'Full Body Takeover: Black Winged Demon!'

With dark green magic swirling around her, Mirajane transformed into her demon form: white hair, black wings, a slender tail flicking behind her, and long, sharp devil horns crowning her head.

"What's this? Takeover magic?" Kain Hikaru looked stunned, clearly unprepared for the sight before him. 'Is Mirajane's takeover magic really this intense?' He hadn't anticipated a form and aura so reminiscent of the demons from Tartaros.

Suddenly, Mirajane's wings flared, and in an instant, she was right in front of him. Before he could react, her black-feathered hand gripped his round face, crushing his features together with sheer force.

"Ow! Ow! That hurts!"

Kain Hikaru cried out, but Mirajane flung him across the field, sending him crashing through a large tree.

In her demon form, Mirajane looked puzzled. 'He has strong magic power, but he doesn't seem as tough as I expected.'

Nearby, Nate observed and suddenly thought of a worrisome scenario: 'What if Mira and Erza find out I'm dating both of them? Would they team up on me?' He couldn't help but imagine the fierce duo in action, and a cold sweat ran down his back.

'Be careful; his magic is called 'Ushi no Koku Mairi,' a death curse magic,' Nate sent Mirajane a telepathic warning. 'Don't let him get a hold of your hair...'

But it was too late. Shakily, Kain Hikaru got back up, blood streaming from his nose, clutching a black feather in his hand.

"You violent woman! Even if you confessed to me right now, I wouldn't accept it!"

'What is he even talking about?' Mirajane thought, bewildered by his rambling. But Nate's warning echoed in her mind, making her tense.

Kain Hikaru held up a small doll, inserting Mirajane's feather into its head. "My magic is called 'Ushi no Koku Mairi,' one of the lost magics! It only takes a single strand of hair to make it work. Feathers work, too!"

Grinning wickedly, he grasped the doll's neck and shook it. Instantly, Mirajane felt her body lurch forward, claws outstretched toward Nate's chest.

"Watch out!" she shouted, unable to control her movements.

'See? I told you to be careful,' Nate telepathically teased as he sidestepped her attack effortlessly. Before she could regain control, Kain Hikaru jerked the doll again, sending Mirajane's arm twisting at an unnatural angle toward Nate's face.

"I'm sorry, Nate! Get out of the way!"

'This magic is actually quite amusing,' Nate thought, grinning as he dodged again. Then, in a blink, he vanished from Mirajane's sight.

"Wait, where did he go?" Kain Hikaru stopped, confused. 'Teleportation?' Realization hit him—'this man must be the master of the Magic Net, the Wizard Saint, Nate!'

While he was lost in thought, Nate appeared at his side, snatching the cursed doll right out of his hands. Amused, he sent Mirajane a message, 'This magic is too fun. Let me have a turn!'

"Give that back!" Kain Hikaru roared, launching a powerful, sumo-like shove at Nate.

But Nate's magic shield easily absorbed the hit. In return, Nate countered with a swift kick, sending Kain Hikaru flying.

'Alright, now it's my turn,' he communicated to Mirajane, who had a sudden, uneasy feeling.

'First, come over here and give me a kiss! That'll drive this single guy mad with jealousy!'

"No way!" Mirajane shouted in embarrassment, but her body betrayed her, drawing her close to Nate for a blushing kiss on his cheek.

"Quit messing around, Nate. I'm getting mad!" she pouted, though she wasn't truly angry—just a little annoyed.

Nate chuckled, feeling a little smug. "I'm just studying his magic," he teased. "This is purely for research purposes only. Watch, I have something even better."

In his palm, he summoned two flames—one orange, the other icy blue—twisting them onto the cursed doll's hands. To her amazement, Mirajane's own hands mirrored the fire magics: ordinary flame and the reverse magic of icefire.

"When magic is applied to the cursed doll, it affects the target as well. Lost magic really is fascinating!" Nate commented, admiring the intricate curse mechanics. He couldn't instantly copy the magic, but he was learning a lot.

By now, Kain Hikaru had gotten back on his feet, fuming. "Nate! You're Nate!"

"I used to like you, but now I'm furious!"

'Like me?' Nate recoiled, taking a step back.

Kain Hikaru pulled out another cursed doll and yanked a strand of his own hair. "You don't understand. I'm known as the 'Love Guru' on the Magic Net! With just a single strand of someone's hair, I can ensure they're blessed with love through the [Magic Net Express Delivery]!"

"More like cursed," Mirajane couldn't help but mutter, channeling her inner Lucy.

Nate was momentarily at a loss for words.

"What would you beautiful people know?" Kain Hikaru yelled, tears streaming down his face. "You've all had it easy, being so attractive and popular. You'll never understand what it's like for the rest of us!"

"I'm using my magic to help people get the love they deserve! But the more I help others, the more I understand..."

'Understand what exactly?' Nate thought, wondering if this self-styled "Love Guru" was actually finding meaning in his twisted work on the Magic Web.

"That a forced relationship may not be sweet, but at least it's... something!" Kain Hikaru looked utterly convinced. "Your Magic Net taught me life's wisdom, Nate. I was grateful for that—but now I'm angry! Give me back that doll!"

'Sure, sure, I get it...' Nate thought, thoroughly exasperated.
