Chapter 84: Chapter 84: Learning the Super Magic "Law", New Mission
Nate explained the principles behind the blue potion for restoring magic power, along with the necessary knowledge of potion-making. For Makarov, understanding it wasn't difficult, but the concept was so simple that it left him stunned.
"Amazing, Nate-sama," Juvia said, looking up at him with wide, admiring eyes.
"This is a brilliant invention..." Makarov finally spoke, his gaze filled with awe, as if he were looking at something extraordinary.
It was no wonder Nate had been able to defeat Jose. With a few bottles of this magic recovery potion on hand, combined with Nate's mastery of advanced magic, Jose didn't stand much of a chance.
"Just some basic herbs, nothing expensive to make," Nate explained. "It stores unused magic power and can be used when necessary to restore it."
"It's a genius creation!" Makarov marveled. Though the principle was simple, it was clear that the amount of effort, time, and perhaps a stroke of inspiration needed to develop it was immense.
"Are there no other ways to recover magic power?" Nate asked. After seeing both Ur and Makarov so shocked by the blue potion, he wondered what the old mages of the world had been up to. Had no one thought to research something like this?
"There are," Makarov replied, "and many methods at that. But none quite like this..." He paused, unsure how to fully describe it.
After a moment of thought, he continued, "Take your Internet Magic, for example. Friends, no matter how far apart, can communicate without obstacles. Before the Internet Magic, the usual method for long-distance communication was the 'communication magic crystal.'"
Nate knew about communication magic crystals. The guild had some in storage. They were smooth crystal orbs that allowed long-distance communication, including video of the other party. However, both sides needed the same model, and the farther apart they were, the more magic power it consumed. Mirajane had once mentioned that if Nate's Internet Magic became widespread, it could make these crystals obsolete, much to the dismay of the merchants who made and sold them.
"I see... I think I understand now," Nate said, beginning to grasp the situation. Many things in the magic world existed but were not advanced or efficient enough. The Internet Magic, for example, had alternatives, but none as convenient.
"This could be another invention that earns you the title of a 'Wizard Saint,'" Makarov added with a chuckle. "If the Magic Council learns about it, they might want to discuss granting you further honors."
"Master, I made it for fun. Let's not bring the Magic Council into this," Nate said, waving it off. He didn't need the hassle. Besides, he was already a Wizard Saint. What good would another medal do him? It wasn't like collecting seven would summon the god Ankhseram.
Makarov smiled. "Your choice. But more importantly, how did you perform that teleportation magic just now?"
"The reverse summoning magic?"
Nate was quite proud of this. The magic recovery potion came from the system, but the reverse summoning magic, "Flying Thunder God," was his own creation.
In normal Flying Thunder God magic, the caster leaves a magic seal at a target location, allowing them to teleport to that spot later. However, with reverse summoning magic, the caster leaves an inverted magic seal at the target location, enabling them to summon the object or person back to their side.
Nate explained the principle and pointed to his Six Eyes.
"The reverse version is ten times more difficult than the normal one, requiring extremely precise control over magic power. I can only manage it thanks to these eyes."
Makarov was stunned again but quickly smiled. "A remarkable achievement. There could be even more applications for reverse summoning magic. You should explore it further."
Makarov thought about how Fairy Law, one of Fairy Tail's three great super magics, had been adapted from the black caster magic "Law," transforming it into a light-based caster magic.
"Understood, Master," Nate nodded, also realizing the potential of reverse magic. If he could reverse Flying Thunder God, why not other magic?
"Come here. I said I'd teach you Fairy Law, and now's as good a time as any."
Makarov was determined. He was getting older and needed to start grooming the next generation's Guild Master. He had several candidates: Laxus, Gildarts, and Erza. Now, Nate had been added to that list.
Laxus, his grandson, had personality issues and struggled to communicate with others, something Makarov often worried about. Gildarts was rarely around, and Erza, while excellent, was sometimes too serious. Nate, on the other hand, seemed like a good balance.
Seeing that Makarov finally had time to teach him Fairy Law, Nate eagerly stepped forward.
"Fairy Law is one of the three great super magics of Fairy Tail. Don't worry about the other two for now," Makarov began, still planting trees as he spoke.
"As a super magic, even if I personally teach you, whether you can master it depends on your own understanding."
"I'll give it my all," Nate replied enthusiastically.
"With your talent, I'm sure you'll manage," Makarov encouraged him with a smile. "First, understand that it's a 'law,' representing the caster's judgment. If your heart leans toward darkness, the magic will transform into dark judgment, and its nature will change."
"Moreover, if you try to use it without enough magic power, it can have severe side effects. Powerful magic often comes with such drawbacks. Fairy Law is no exception. The more enemies it judges, the more it shortens your lifespan, so it must be used with caution!"
Makarov paused and looked Nate in the eye.
"Now that you understand this, do you still want to learn it?"
"Of course," Nate answered without hesitation. Knowing multiple powerful magics was always a good thing, and when the time came to use them, the side effects wouldn't matter.
Besides, Nate didn't think his lifespan would be a problem. The stronger his magic became, the more he felt he could live for a long, long time.
"Very well, let's begin," Makarov said with a satisfied smile.
The rest of the day was spent learning. Of course, they also planted trees while doing so.
Fairy Law was much more challenging to learn than Thought Projection magic, but Nate was picking it up quickly and felt confident he could master it.
The day passed peacefully in this harmonious rhythm between man and nature.
By the time the sun set, the three of them had replanted all the trees in the forest.
"That should do it. Next time, don't upset Porlyusica. She gave me an earful," Makarov grumbled, his brows furrowed.
"I'll be more careful next time," Nate said with a small laugh.
Waving goodbye, Nate led Juvia back to his mansion on the outskirts of town.
Later that evening, Nate didn't push Juvia. Though she was made of water—soft and pliable—she was still a water mage, and her body needed time to recover. He decided to let her rest for a couple of days.
To avoid torturing himself, Nate returned to his apartment to sleep alone.
On his way back, a system task suddenly popped up.
[Mission: Increase registered users of the Internet Magic to 30,000.]
[Reward: Worms of Time.]
The mission came out of nowhere, without any warning.
While the mission itself was straightforward, what really caught Nate's attention was the reward.
"Worms of Time?"
