Chapter 218: Need to learn the magic for Animation

Chapter 218: Chapter 218: Need to learn the magic for Animation"Celestial Pokémon: The Original Series?"

Levy murmured softly. It sounded like a movie about Celestial Pokémon. S~eaʀᴄh the novёlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Is Master going to make a Pokémon movie?" she wondered aloud. "That sounds so interesting!"

Levy's eyes sparkled as she raised her hand excitedly.

"Master—no, Director—I want to be in the movie!"

My little apprentice... She's kind of cute. How did I not notice before? Nate shook his head.

"It's not a movie, though it's close. Each episode will be about 20 minutes long. It's a series that tells a long story."

"Can I be in it? Even though I don't know how to act, I've done some theater work before!"

Levy clasped her hands, pleading with an eager expression that almost looked like begging. "Master~ please~"

Theater work? Nate thought of Erza. She seemed like the type who'd be interested in this sort of thing. Seeing his little apprentice's enthusiasm, he decided to give Erza a part, too.

With that thought, Nate patted Levy on the head. "The production style is different from a movie, but I can arrange a role for you in the series. How does that sound?"

"Really? Thank you, Master~!" Levy's face lit up with joy as she began imagining herself in the show.

"The movie's over. Let's go," Nate said.

"Yes, Master!"

...

As Nate and Levy left the movie theater, Nate couldn't help but grumble about the ticket prices.

"Two tickets cost nearly 10,000 J. That's really expensive! No wonder the theater was so small and had so few people."

Once the Magic Net video section goes live, these theaters will probably go out of business... though maybe not. Couples will still want to watch movies on dates, but it'd be nice if they could do so in a private room with a comfortable setup.

The two returned to the guild, and from a distance, Nate noticed an unusual bustle.

A large crowd had gathered outside the guild's iron gate, and Mirajane was handling the crowd.

"Mirajane, I want to place a commission..." one man said.

"You can place commissions online... Uncle Magu, don't you have a ring?" she asked, puzzled.

"This commission is different. I want to buy 1,000 Magic Net coins from you Fairy Tail mages, and the reward can be discussed."

Mirajane blinked in surprise, glancing at the others.

"Magic Net coins? You all...?"

Everyone nodded.

"Yes, Mirajane!"

"That's right, my request is also for Magic Net coins."

"My grandson loves 'Celestial Pokémon.' Since the update, you need Magic Net coins to buy gold tickets. Please sell them to me first!"

The crowd consisted of regular players involved in the current test, or their relatives, all clamoring to buy Magic Net coins. At this point, only the Fairy Tail mages could sell them.

Nate exchanged a glance with Levy.

"Can we sell them, Master?" Levy whispered.

"Of course, it's your magic after all," he replied.

The [Magic Net Marketplace] wasn't ready yet, otherwise they could have sold the coins there.

Nate wasn't surprised by the scene before him. It looked like the citizens of Magnolia had a good standard of living and money to spend on the game. However, they were unlikely to get what they wanted today—the guild members needed those Magic Net coins to draw cards.

Levy realized this as well and winked mischievously at Nate. "I have the gold tickets you gave me. I can sell those! I'll go now. Thank you, Master!"

With that, she eagerly ran toward the group of commission seekers.

Nate didn't stop her and turned to leave.

Today, with the guild so lively, Nate decided not to get involved. Especially with so many of his girlfriends clustered in one place—it was a little nerve-wracking.

Instead, he focused on quickly mastering the magic he'd need to produce 'Celestial Pokémon: The Original Series.' If he couldn't master it himself, he could find someone else to incorporate it into the [Library].

Two types of magic could accomplish what he needed:

First, 'Memory-Make Magic,' an ancient magic wielded by a mage Nate vaguely remembered would represent the guild Sabertooth in the Grand Magic Games seven years from now. Sabertooth, currently a weak guild, would rise next year with the help of five powerful mages, eventually overtaking Fairy Tail as the "strongest guild in Fiore." One of these five wielded 'Memory-Make Magic,' but Nate didn't know where to find them just yet.

The second option was 'Arc of Embodiment,' a Lost Magic wielded by one of the Seven Kin of Purgatory from Grimoire Heart. For animation production, 'Arc of Embodiment' would be more convenient than 'Memory-Make,' and Nate knew exactly where to find its wielder.

He also considered consulting the 'Gate of Truth,' a mystical entity that could, in theory, answer any question. However, as it had only recently come into existence in this world, its knowledge might be limited.

As he walked along the river, Nate focused a sliver of his consciousness on the Deep Web, summoning the Gate of Truth to inquire about the secrets of 'Arc of Embodiment.' But the Gate didn't respond—it seemed dormant. He tried asking about 'Memory-Make Magic' with no luck.

Fine, he thought. It made sense that the Gate, being essentially newborn, didn't know everything yet.

Since he couldn't obtain any knowledge about the two magics from the Gate, Nate decided to go to Grimoire Heart personally. He closed his eyes, sensed the presence of the 'Worms of Time,' locked onto its location, and transformed into a flash of golden light that streaked across the Magnolia skyline.

...

Over the endless sea, a magic airship cruised above the waves.

On the deck, Master Hades stood with his staff, gazing over the vast ocean.

"The information says it's somewhere in this sea region... nearby or not?" Hades muttered with a frown. The three keys required to release Zeref's seal had finally been gathered, and now it was time to locate Zeref himself. Once he broke the seal, a new era of magic would begin!

Suddenly, a flash of golden light appeared on the horizon, like a shooting star, streaking right over his head before landing with a heavy thud on the deck, shaking the airship.

"Heh heh... well, well, our first official meeting, isn't it, Fourth Master?" Hades chuckled.

"Finally tired of Fairy Tail and here to join my guild instead, are you?"

Daydreaming, are we? And why call me Fourth Master now? Did Mavis put you up to this?

With so much he could say, Nate merely smiled politely at his predecessor.

"A pleasure to meet you, Second Master."
