Fairy Tail: The Three Sacred Magic

On the morning of the third day of the Great Magic Battle, there was already a bustling crowd outside Crocus Castle, and the noise continued.

On the second floor of the Fairy Tail Temporary Tavern, the sun shone into the room through the gap in the curtains, and Natsu and Lucy were woken up at the same time.

The two opened their eyes, blinked, looked at each other through the quilt, and smiled slightly.

"It's like a war." Lucy turned over and reached out to grope for the pantyhose beside the bed.

Natsu sat up, scratched his messy cherry-colored hair, and looked confused. "Happy, do you know what happened outside?"

On the side, Happy lazily poked his head out of the quilt and rubbed his eyes with his paws.

"What are you arguing about? Can we sleep?" It muttered, and its voice was sleepy.

Lucy urged in a tender voice while putting on her pantyhose, "Don't sleep anymore, happy, go see what's going on outside."

Happy yawned, barely flew to the window, flapping his wings listlessly. "Oh, really, you can't even sleep well as a cat."

Natsu also quickly put on his clothes at this time, and his black sleeveless jacket outlined his solid muscles.

The moment he stood up, Lucy couldn't help frowning.

"Hey! Natsu, can you pay attention to your hair, it's messy!"

Natsu scratched his head, grabbed a strand of hair, and a faint heat flowed between his fingers, perming the cherry-colored hair into a smooth and neat shape.

"Is this okay?"

Lucy rolled her eyes at him, but a smile rose at the corner of her mouth.

"Huh, this is more like it." As she said that, she buttoned the last button on her chest and prepared to leave.

"Where's the harpy?" Natsu suddenly remembered and looked around, only to find that the harpy had crawled back into the bed, with its tail hanging outside and swaying gently.

"Harpy! You're sleeping again!" Lucy stamped her feet in anger.

"I'm so sleepy... You guys were so tired last night..." The harpy's voice came out from the bed.

Lucy's face turned red when she heard this.

She glared at Natsu, "Humph, I blamed you last night, saying I would support you, but you only knew how to bully me!"

Natsu scratched the back of his head with an embarrassed smile on his face. "Sorry~ It's just... you know, you can't stop after one time."

Lucy's face flushed with shame, and she hit him angrily. "Hateful!"

Natsu gently held her little hand and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, let's go, it seems that there is something important outside."

The two opened the door and left the room quickly.

——

Outside the tavern, the members of Fairy Tail also woke up one after another and came to the door to watch the excitement outside.

Natsu pulled Lucy into the crowd and looked around. The whole street was crowded with people.

"Wow, so many people! Where are they going?" Lucy said in surprise.

Gray shrugged and replied, "I heard that today is the last day of the Great Magic Fighting Exercise. The competition venue will be expanded to the entire Crocus, so except for the audience inside the exercise venue, other citizens have to go to other cities to watch the battle through the magic crystal."

"Huh? So exaggerated!" Natsu was shocked and looked around. He saw the Imperial Knights in the distance guiding the citizens to board the huge magic airship. "

"Yes, but you two are still energetic even if you are woken up. " Gray joked.

Lucy was slightly stunned, then she lowered her head shyly and explained, "Ah... It's okay, maybe I slept too well..." She gently played with her blonde hair, and a blush appeared on her face.

Natsu stood beside and scratched his head, "Ha, indeed, a good sleep is more enjoyable than fighting!"

"Fighting!" Lucy rolled her eyes at him and hit his shoulder, but a smile appeared on her face unconsciously.

......

In the distance, the Imperial Knights on the street were wearing red cloaks and were guiding the people to board the huge magic airship in an orderly manner.

"Attention, citizens, we have prepared enough magic airships for the entire city of Kurokas, with rest areas and sufficient food. Please keep order and board the ship in order!" The Imperial Knight used magic to amplify the sound, and the voice echoed in the street.

An old man smiled kindly and waved to the Imperial Knight, "Don't worry, young man, we have never ridden such an advanced magic device, it's still quite fresh! "

A knight immediately responded, "Don't worry, elderly people and children with limited mobility, we have arranged special soldiers to assist you in the transfer."

Aside, several teenagers aged eight or nine gathered together, with admiration in their eyes, discussing those majestic imperial knights.

"As expected of the knights of the empire! So handsome!" A teenager said excitedly.Said, eyes shining.

"I heard that they are all wizards, and they all have powerful magic in their bodies!" Another boy added excitedly.

"So powerful!" The others were amazed.

"Well, my father is an imperial knight. He told me that the military levels of the empire are divided into imperial soldiers, imperial magic wizards, imperial knights, imperial magic guards, imperial magic generals, and the highest level of imperial gods!" The boy said proudly, his eyes full of longing.

"Wow! Imperial gods, I will also wear glowing armor in the future, as majestic as them!" The boy said excitedly, his face full of yearning.

Another boy laughed, "Stupid, that's the glimmer of magic!"

"Hehe, one day I will stand there too!"

Laxus stood beside Natsu, looking at the scene in front of him, with a hint of relief in his expression.

"It is worthy of being the empire created by Hal and the first generation. Even the army is so disciplined, and the people's lives seem to be healthy." Laxus sighed, with a slight smile on his face.

Natsu looked at the orderly scene in front of him, and his expression gradually dimmed.

"Yeah... As expected of Harney..." His voice was low, and complex emotions flashed in his eyes.

Laxus looked at Natsu, patted his shoulder gently, and his tone was unexpectedly soft: "

Natsu, don't be discouraged. Strength is not everything, prove it to him, sometimes belief is the key to victory or defeat."

Natsu was slightly startled, obviously he didn't expect Laxus to say such a thing to him.

After a while, his eyes gradually became firm, clenched his fists, and his voice was full of determination.

"I understand, I will do it!"

Lucy, who was standing aside, smiled gently, gently touched Natsu's hair, and said softly: "I have always believed in you, Natsu.

You are an amazing person, don't let Har's words affect your confidence."

Natsu's heart was filled with a warm current, and he looked at Lucy with gratitude in his eyes.

Laxus withdrew his gaze and looked at the knights and people of the empire in the distance, the breeze gently brushing his golden hair.

"Hal? In seven years, my strength has already surpassed ten times.

But what about you? In seven years, how strong have you become?"

His voice was low and his eyes were deep, as if he could see Hal sitting in the magic circle in the distance through the scene in front of him.
