Chapter 280

Gray: "Fairy Law? I remember this was the trophy for the final winner in the previous S-Class examination, right?"

Lucy: "Come to think of it, it seems I haven't seen Black Natsu use this magic in the past two years."

Wendy: "Did he not learn it?"

Mavis: "Not very likely, with Black Natsu's talent, even a super magic like Fairy Law shouldn't take two years without learning it."

Hades: "It's also possible he didn't learn it at all, and is only taking it out to learn now? After all, Fairy Law is difficult if you say it's difficult, and simple if you say it's simple, it's a magic that relies heavily on talent."

Makarov: "Indeed, when I learned this, it didn't take much time."

"If it's Black Natsu, he should be able to master it very quickly, right?"

【Inside the screen.】

【Happy was also full of confusion.】

【"What does this have to do with what you want to do? Are you trying to learn this magic?"】

【Regarding this, Black Natsu shook his head gently.】

【"This magic is not difficult, I had already learned it and mastered it before, however, precisely because of this, I discovered a fatal problem."】

【"A fatal problem? Happy scratched his head."】

【Obviously not understanding Black Natsu's words.】

【Regarding this, Black Natsu was also very helpless.】

【"I only discovered this after I learned it."】

【"Fairy Law, its predecessor is the Black Magic Law, which in essence defines the lives of the world by its own standards."】

【"The performance of the magic is very powerful, and evolving to this day, it can already achieve the total elimination of those identified as enemies by the caster."】

【"But, such elimination is not without a price."】

【"Price? What is it?" Happy asked curiously.】

【"Reducing the caster's life!" Black Natsu's expression was serious.】

Erza: "Reducing life??"

"Then that means..."

Inside the Fairy Tail guild, the group of people cast their gazes toward Makarov at the bar.

Regarding this, Makarov nodded gently.

"Indeed, Fairy Law has such a drawback."

"If you want to take away someone else's life, you need to pay with your own lifespan."

"The more objects you take away, the more life you lose."

Mirajane: "Then if you say it like that, this magic is essentially a death warrant??"

Hades: "You can understand it that way, however, if you have a long enough life, this point can be ignored."

Ultear: "Long enough life... I understand!"

"So that's why Mavis over there wanted to give Fairy Law to Black Natsu."

Meredy: "Are you saying that because Black Natsu is a Dragon Slayer Mage, he will likely gain a lifespan like a dragon in the future, so there are not so many concerns when Black Natsu uses Fairy Law?"

Ur: "Very likely, but I feel there should be other reasons, what exactly it is, let's continue watching."

【In the footage.】

【Happy was stunned by what Black Natsu said.】

【His pupils were trembling slightly, and after a long while, he said with difficulty:】

【"So, is there really a need to learn such magic?"】

【"This is exactly what I want to do next." Black Natsu opened the book in front of him.】

【The title of the book: Equivalent Exchange Magic】

【"I want to figure out the logic of this magic consuming life, and see if it can be improved, maybe the side effect of reducing life can be eliminated."】

【Happy nodded knowingly.】

【"So that's it, then, what is the second thing?"】

【Happy continued to ask.】

【"The second thing..."】

【Black Natsu raised his head helplessly: "It's wanting to see if I can solve the problem of Dragon Slayer Mages getting motion sickness."】

【"Otherwise, every time I take a vehicle, it's like hell for me, that feeling is really too uncomfortable."】

【"Therefore, now that I finally have time, I must study it and see if I can solve it completely!"】

【"That's true, every time you take a vehicle, you completely lose your combat effectiveness, this situation is indeed very dangerous."】

【Happy also nodded in agreement.】

【"However, is such a thing really possible? I feel like there's no way to lift it."】

【"Happy." Black Natsu put down the book.】

【He spoke with a serious expression: "Every magic has its principles, rather than saying magic is a creation of miracles, it's better to say magic is a kind of causality."】

【"Because of what principle, the result of magic release is obtained."】

【"Then, if you want to rewrite magic to achieve new effects, you should understand its principles, and then reasonably change the principles, maybe you can get the effects we want."】

【"In the path of magic, there is always a need for people to study and explore."】

【Happy scratched his head upon hearing this.】

【"So complicated... I don't understand..."】

【Black Natsu shook his head gently: "You are still too young."】

【Speaking of this, Black Natsu paused slightly, as if thinking of something.】

【He looked up at Happy:】

【"However, some things need to be learned from childhood, so that in the future you can lead others... no, I should say lead other cats by a large margin."】
