Chapter 252 Dragon God and Magic Knight
early morning.
Having already woken up and gotten ready, Shirou Kotomine, Lucy, and Mirajane were sitting quietly at the dining table, eating breakfast in silence.
The conversations that used to be common during breakfast are nowhere to be heard.
All three of them had their heads down.
This strange atmosphere has persisted since the three of them got up this morning.
"Mira, Lucy, I will take good care of you from now on."
In the end, it was Shirou Kotomine who broke the silence.
As a man, Shirou Kotomine felt that he should step forward at this moment, instead of cowering here and shirking responsibility.
Shirou Kotomine has always been willing to take responsibility.
He just didn't know how to start the conversation for a moment.
After all, he was a bit confused about what happened last night. It was the first time he had been on a track with three other people, which was not a track that a novice like him could handle.
Moreover, when he woke up in the morning and faced the two of them at the same time, Kotomine Shirou didn't know what to say for a moment.
But now he understands.
This situation cannot be allowed to continue.
Even if they ganged up on him, Shirou Kotomine was not afraid at all.
Upon hearing Shirou Kotomine's promise, Mirajane and Lucy both slightly raised their heads.
Their thoughts were actually the same as Shirou Kotomine's.
After all, they were all novices in this field.
This was the first practical exercise I did.
They couldn't remember what their feelings were when they entered the bathhouse where Shirou Kotomine was last night.
But this morning, after everything was over, the two woke up and were immediately overcome with extreme shyness.
They were equally speechless.
This also made them not dare to look up at the two people beside them.
Until he heard Shirou Kotomine's promise.
Mirajane and Lucy raised their heads slightly to look at Shirou Kotomine's face. Seeing his sincere eyes, Mirajane and Lucy's faces quickly turned even redder, and then they lowered their heads again.
But this time, Shirou Kotomine did not wait any longer.
Sensing the girl's shyness, Shirou Kotomine sat down next to them and then put his arms around them.
The moment they were embraced, both Mirajane and Lucy trembled involuntarily.
Neither of them managed to break free from Kotomine Shirou's embrace.
The two of them even leaned slightly toward Kotomine Shirou's chest, eventually resting their heads on his shoulder.
"I will never let you down."
"I trust you!"
"Me too!"
Kotomine Shirou's happy journey begins.
After overcoming their barriers, the three of them spent their trip in a blissful atmosphere.
Enjoying their love for each other, the three of them, including Shirou Kotomine, were in a good mood every day.
It was as if the surrounding scenery was all pink.
However, although the relationship between Shirou Kotomine and the other two was elevated, Shirou Kotomine's training of Mirajane and Lucy did not become easier; on the contrary, it became increasingly strict.
The closer their relationship became, the more worried Shirou Kotomine became about their safety.
After all, Fairy Tail will face increasingly stronger enemies in the future.
As for Shirou Mine, he can't stay here forever.
Although at this point, Shirou Kotomine had already created a small world within his body using the world's Dragon Slayer Magic, giving him the ability to bring Mirajane and Lucy to another world.
But neither Mirajane nor Lucy will likely leave with Shirou Kotomine anytime soon.
Because their home is still here.
Compared to the unfamiliar other world, they still have endless attachment to this world.
This problem will surely be solved as Shirou Kotomine's strength grows in the future.
But that's not now.
Before that day arrives, Shirou Kotomine wants them to have the ability to protect themselves even when he is not around.
Therefore, Shirou Kotomine became even more attentive to their training.
Even so, it still couldn't satisfy Kotomine Shirou.
At this rate, when will they ever have that kind of strength?
So after careful consideration, Shirou Kotomine decided to give them both a power-up.
"What are you doing, Shirou?"
That day, while traveling in the carriage, Lucy noticed Shirou Kotomine's unusual behavior and couldn't help but ask him about it.
At this moment, a dazzling crystal was floating in the palm of Kotomine Shirou's hand, and dozens or even hundreds of rings were densely wrapped around the crystal.
These rings are actually composed of techniques.
Although Lucy didn't recognize any of these spells, she could still sense intense magical power emanating from them.
"What are you making, Shirou?"
Mirajane, who was admiring the scenery, couldn't help but look over when he heard the question.
Looking at the crystal and spell in Shirou Kotomine's palm, she, with her higher level of theoretical knowledge, speculated and asked.
"You guessed it, I'm creating magic that can protect you."
Kotomine Shirou introduced with a smile.
"The magic that protects us!?"
Mirajane and Lucy immediately looked at the crystal in Shirou Kotomine's palm.
They never imagined that this would be related to them.
"How will this magic protect us?"
"I can't believe it," Lucy asked.
"Well, please let me give you a surprise. I promise you won't be disappointed."
"It's so mysterious," said Shirou Kotomine.
But the more mysterious he became, the more Mirajane and Lucy wanted to know.
"I don't want to wait, I want to know now!"
"Me too!"
"Speak up!"
"Please, tell me!"
Seeing this, Mirajane and Lucy couldn't help but start acting cute towards Shirou Kotomine.
This gave Shirou Kotomine a jolt.
He was almost bewitched.
But Shirou Kotomine ultimately persevered.
Throughout their journey, Mirajane and Lucy repeatedly tried to use seduction to extract the true nature of this surprise from Shirou Kotomine.
But Shirou Kotomine has always been one to swallow the sugar-coated bullets and retaliate with the bullets.
He successfully kept the surprise going.
Whether or not they later realized that this surprise was no longer important to Mirajane and Lucy was no longer important.
But this turned into a fun little game between them.
This was quite a surprise for Shirou Kotomine.
The training journey of Shirou Kotomine, Mirage Lucy, and the others continues.
Under the tutelage of Shirou Kotomine, Mirajane's mastery of spirit magic deepened.
Gradually, the essence of the demons she absorbed was transformed into cursed spirits, which would allow Mirajane to unleash even greater power when she absorbed them in the future.
Lucy, on the other hand, was already able to summon two Celestials to fight at the same time.
This is a huge boost to her strength.
In addition, Shirou Kotomine developed another magical technique for her.
Its name is "Backup Magic Source Technology".
Considering that both Celestial Magic and Hyper Magic that Lucy possesses are extremely mana-intensive techniques.
That's how this backup magic source technology came about.
Using this technique, Lucy can create a backup source of magic within her body to accumulate magical power.
When Lucy's magic power is at its peak, she can store the excess magic power in her backup magic power source and use it when necessary.
In this way, Lucy can gain twice the amount of magic power she used to have.
However, the magical energy obtained through this technique cannot increase a mage's direct combat power.
However, it can increase a mage's survivability.
This is extremely important for Lucy, who relies heavily on magic.
After Shirou Kotomine created this technique, he also taught it to Mirajane.
For the vast majority of mages.
This magical technique is nothing short of divine.
After resolving the magic issue, Shirou Kotomine then taught Lucy the Super Magic Fairy Sphere.
Anyway, she usually relies on the Celestials in battle.
When protected by the Protoss, she can unleash super magic like a turret.
This is a very suitable tactic for Lucy.
Therefore, in addition to the Fairy Orb, Shirou Kotomine also plans to teach Lucy the Fairy Radiance in the future.
This super magic move is incredibly destructive; its power is second to none.
However, these are all things Lucy will need to learn in the future.
She's already getting a bit dizzy from learning about Fairy Balls alone.
Regardless, both Lucy and Mirajane's strength was greatly enhanced during this journey.
But for Shirou Kotomine, these enhancements are nothing.
After all, he was constantly transforming, and even without doing anything, his rate of progress far surpassed that of Lucy and Mirajane.
However, Shirou Kotomine prepared gifts for Lucy and Mirajane.
That is, the surprise he prepared for the two of them.
"Is this the surprise you prepared for us?"
Looking at the rhombus-shaped crystal she held in her hands, Lucy asked curiously, "What's its purpose?"
"Its function is very important."
Looking at Lucy and Mirajane admiring the gift he had given them, Shirou Kotomine's face was also full of smiles.
"This contains magic that I designed and cultivated specifically for you. What you need to do now is integrate it into your own bodies."
He reached out and took back the crystal he had given to Lucy.
Then Shirou Kotomine pressed it against Lucy's chest.
To Lucy's astonishment, the crystal slowly merged into her body.
The next moment, dozens of different magic circles enveloped Lucy.
The crystal that merged into Lucy's body transformed into magic and flowed towards Lucy's magic source, after which Lucy's magic became violent.
At that moment, Lucy felt an endless stream of power flowing out of her body.
These powers overflowed from Lucy's body in the form of pure magic, eventually coalescing into a magical knight completely shrouded in armor.
He stood quietly behind Lucy without making a sound.
"This is?"
"This is the guardian knight I designed for you."
Seeing Lucy's bewildered expression, Shirou Kotomine reached out and ruffled her hair before explaining, "This is a magical construct I cultivated; it's a special kind of magical creature."
"Through my design and enhancements, he possesses extremely strong combat capabilities, but his greatest strength lies in his defensive and protective abilities."
"Normally it lies dormant inside you, but you can summon it to protect you with just a thought."
"Wow, this is such a surprise!"
Looking at the magic knight before her, Lucy's face was filled with surprise.
She never expected that Shirou Kotomine would give her such a generous gift.
As a Celestial Spirit Mage, Lucy's greatest weakness is being vulnerable to close-range attacks from enemies.
Although Lucy's close combat ability has improved a lot under Shirou Kotomine's training during this time, that was prepared for Lucy in her Celestial Spirit Cloth form.
Even when Lucy has close combat abilities, she is no match for those mages in normal times.
The existence of the Magic Knights made up for Lucy's deficiency.
This made her safer.
"Thank you, Shirou! I really like this gift."
Lucy happily went up and kissed Shirou Kotomine on the cheek.
As a result, Shirou Kotomine's smile grew even wider.
"And what about me, Shirou!"
Mirajane's voice slowly rang out, and Kotomine Shirou, who was immersed in happiness, immediately woke up.
"Mira, of course your situation is different from Lucy's. After all, you are not the same type of mage, so my arrangements are naturally different as well."
He took Mirajane's crystal from her hand and pressed it against her chest.
After a series of intersecting magic circles, Mirajane's mind became immersed in her own inner world.
In her inner world, this place was once imprisoned the spirits of many demons.
Now, these spirits, transformed into cursed spirits, live freely here.
But today, all these demons are hiding in the corners of her inner world.
Even the demons that were Mirajane's trump cards were the same.
The reason for all of this was the person standing in front of him.
This is also an elf.
It is a spirit in the spirit-controlling magic system created by Shirou Kotomine. Mirajane, who also practiced this magic, judged that it was not far from the level of a holy spirit.
And it exudes a terrifying aura.
"This is an elf-level spirit creature that I specially raised for you."
To Mirajane's astonishment, the voice of Shirou Kotomine came from the mouth of this being.
"In this spiritual being, I have incorporated my own knowledge and research on dragons, demons, and gods. As an aggregate of them, you can call it the Dragon Demon God."
"My power resides within it, for it possesses limitless potential and a bright future; it will become your true trump card."
Kotomine Shirou explained.
This is the gift that Shirou Kotomine prepared for Mirajane.
A powerful and promising evolved spirit.
It will become Mirajane's true trump card and peak fighting force.
Both the "Dragon Demon God" given to Mirajane and the "Magic Knight" given to Lucy are connected to Shirou Kotomine.
Their strength will increase as Shirou Kotomine's strength increases.
They will then be able to provide Mirajane and Lucy with even greater assistance.
With these powers, both Lucy and Mirajane will have the ability to survive on the battlefield in the future.
This was enough to put Kotomine Shirou's mind at ease.
"The Dragon Demon God? I really like this gift too."
Returning from the world of the mind, Mirajane stepped forward and embraced Shirou Kotomine, kissing him.
Lucy and Mirajane were both very pleased with Shirou Kotomine's gift.
So, they decided to give Shirou Kotomine a surprise and a gift tonight as well.
A gift that pleased Shirou Kotomine.
