Chapter 270

【Ultear complained: "Can't you cooperate a little?"】

【She tidied her clothes.】

【Black Natsu said indifferently: "If I cooperated, you'd probably be crying by now."】

August: "Something's wrong, this sentence is also wrong; I always feel like it's implying something, but I can't figure it out."

Irene: "If you can't figure it out, don't think about it; it's useless to you anyway."

August: "Hmm?? What do you mean it's useless to me?"

Brandish: "It means, it's better if August doesn't know about this kind of thing."

Ajeel: "Honestly, the wheels are already on the face, and he still doesn't know? I really don't know how August has spent the last hundred years."

【The screen continued.】

【"Eh? Why would I cry?" Ultear crossed her arms, seriously highlighting her magnificence, but she was completely unaware.】

【She looked at Black Natsu with some curiosity.】

【Hearing this, Black Natsu glanced at Ultear, his gaze lingering on her magnificence for a moment.】

【Then he shook his head gently: "I didn't expect you to be unexpectedly simple; looking at your performance, I thought you knew everything."】

【Ultear was even more confused: "No, what on earth are you talking about?"】

【"Alright, let's talk about business; you found me, so you must have news, right?"】

【Black Natsu found a seat and sat down, asking.】

【Speaking of business, Ultear also became serious.】

【She said in a low voice: "Right, there's movement regarding the Tower of Heaven."】

【Her gaze was fixed on Black Natsu: "The construction of the Tower of Heaven is complete, and Jellal is ready to take action; I estimate it's a matter of these few days."】

【A glimmer of light flashed in Black Natsu's eyes!】

【"If that's the case, I have to hurry up and break through the method of depicting reversal magic."】

【"Give me the map of the Tower of Heaven, and I'll go back immediately to perfect the construction of the magic."】

【"I've already prepared this." Saying that, Ultear handed a map to Black Natsu.】

【Taking the map, Black Natsu was a bit excited: "Then, I'll leave the Council side to you."】

【Ultear nodded, indicating no problem.】

【Immediately, she looked at Black Natsu with some hesitation: "Right, my mother... how is that woman?"】

【"Ur, huh..." Black Natsu put the map away.】

【Then he smiled slightly: "Don't worry, everything is normal; at most a few more months, and all the work will be finished. By then, you can ask her everything you want to know yourself."】

【Ultear nodded gently.】

【After seeing Black Natsu off, she sighed silently.】

【Sitting alone on the sofa, her gaze looked at the faint light, lost in thought.】

【"Mother... huh?"】 ===== CHAPTER 566 =====

【Outside the Magic Council.】

【Black Natsu and Makarov, who had just finished chatting with his old friend, walked out together.】

【At this moment, a light drizzle had begun to fall in the sky.】

【In this world of rain.】

【The two could see two figures waiting at the main entrance at a glance.】

【"They are really waiting here."】

【Makarov said.】

【"I knew Juvia would come, but I didn't expect that guy Gajeel would dare to follow."】

【Black Natsu said, moving forward.】

【Makarov followed closely behind.】

【Soon, Black Natsu and the others arrived in front of Gajeel and Juvia, who were holding an umbrella.】

【Seemingly still feeling fear toward Black Natsu.】

【The moment he saw Black Natsu approaching, Gajeel retreated two steps, his heart beating fast, and his whole person seemed to be extremely nervous.】

【But, glancing at Juvia on the side, recalling Juvia's request not long ago, this might be her only chance to get rid of the heavy rain, Gajeel sighed helplessly.】

【He stood in front of Black Natsu, biting the bullet.】

【To tell the truth, if it weren't for this woman who loves to rain wherever she goes, being the only person in the entire Phantom Lord guild he could talk to and barely count as a friend.】

【Gajeel would absolutely not come here to face Black Natsu.】

【That's Black Natsu!】

【A monster among monsters, who was still in a hostile state not long ago.】

【An existence that almost beat him into a retard!】

【But... for the sake of a friend, Gajeel decided to make the trip.】

【Anyway... Black Natsu wouldn't be bold enough to kill him in front of Makarov, at the entrance of the Council, right?】

【With such thoughts, Gajeel arrived here.】

【However, the moment he saw Black Natsu, his heart still couldn't stop jumping.】

【Black Natsu looked at Gajeel, who was covered in bandages.】

【He shook his head: "Don't worry, the war is over, and I've already settled the score, so you don't have to worry about me attacking you again."】

【"I... I'm not afraid..."】

【Gajeel stammered.】

【Black Natsu smiled, didn't dwell on it, and turned his gaze to Juvia.】

【"Can you really help me change my current situation?"】

【Seeing Black Natsu cast his gaze on her, Juvia spoke immediately.】

【Heaven knows how tormented Juvia's heart was while waiting for this moment.】

【Therefore, the moment Black Natsu looked over, she couldn't wait to ask.】

【To this, Black Natsu nodded gently.】

【"So-called magic, in a more abstract sense, is actually the manifestation of the heart."】

【"You possess a talent that ordinary people can't reach, which is why your life has been favored by rain; this is actually not a disaster, but good luck."】

【"This is a manifestation of your potential."】

【Black Natsu said unhurriedly.】

【"Potential..." Juvia whispered to herself.】

【Her fair palms were clenched together.】

【"But... if possible, I don't want this power at all; it ruined my life... I..."】

【Watching Juvia at this moment, Makarov sighed silently.】

【"In some ways, she's quite like Mirajane, right?" Makarov, who had his arms crossed, said.】

【Black Natsu nodded: "So, the response method is the same."】

【Saying that, he looked at Juvia: "If I'm not mistaken, you've been suppressing your magic, right?"】

【"Whether it's the growth of magic power or the perfection of magic, you've been deliberately suppressing it, right?"】

【Juvia bit her lip: "After all, magic brought me misfortune; I don't want to amplify this misfortune... so, so I've been suppressing the growth of magic..."】

【Black Natsu held his forehead helplessly: "So, the problem lies right there."】

【"Just like I said just now, magic is idealistic, but if even you don't trust magic, how will magic respond to you?"】

【"Try to accept it, accept everything it brings you; perhaps your current predicament can be solved."】

【"To put it bluntly, your current state is caused by lack of proficiency and difficulty in controlling your own magic power."】

【"This requires you to completely change your state of mind; the heavy rain will not become your trouble, but on the contrary, it will become your most effective helper."】

【Black Natsu's words were remembered by Juvia word for word.】

【A look of surprise gradually appeared on her face.】

【She widened her eyes, staring blankly at Black Natsu: "Is... is it that simple?"】

【"It's just that simple." Black Natsu spread his hands.】 ===== CHAPTER 567 =====
