Multiverse Leveling Up

Chapter 6: Chapter 6



"Damn it Nastu, this is why we can't take you anywhere! You just had to charge off without thinking, didn't you?" Grey shouted with irritation, a little earlier Nastu decided he would lead the group and ran off randomly with Happy, Gajeel, Panther Lily, Wendy, Carla, Erza, Lucy, Juvia, and Grey following him.

Natsu rolled his eyes crossing his arms defiantly. "We wouldn't have missed out on anything cool if you could keep up, " he shot back, unfazed.

"Cool? We're out in the middle of Caelid, and we're lost, you flame for brain!" Gray argued, shaking his head in annoyance.

Erza sighed, stepping between them.

"Enough, you two. The guild isn't far, and we can handle this on our own for now." Her voice held the usual commanding tone that quieted them-at least for the time being.

Lucy laughed nervously, her eyes darting around. "I just hope that we don't run into any more of those creatures. Caelid is bad enough without having to worry about everything trying to kill us."

Happy fluttered up, patting Lucy on the head in a rare attempt to be reassuring. "Aye! We'll be fine. After all, we're Fairy Tail!" Carla snorted slightly at his nonchalance but nodded in agreement. They began walking as the freakish, red-tinted landscape, Juvia stood next to Grey blushing and staring at Grey's shirtless body.

Not long after the group found a tunnel, Nastu finally seeing something interesting ran inside with the group right behind him. As they entered a blue screen popped up saying Gael Tunnel. Two knights wearing red and chain male armor stood at the edge of the small pit, the two knights charged at the group. Gajeel and Panther Lily were the ones to fight these two knights.

"Iron Dragon hard Fist!" Coating his arm in iron Gajeel punched through the shield of one of the knights then delivered another blow to his head killing the knight and causing it to glow white and disappear dropping his weapon and armor. Panther Lily is his larger size used his large sword to cut in half the Knight.

The group jumped down and began to explore the dungeon, they fought and killed all the knights and miner monsters that attacked them.

"Hey, Nastu and Gajeel do you guys smell that?" As they approached near the boss room Wendy asked the two other dragon slayers if they smelled what she smelled.

" It smells like a dragon." Gajeel words shocked the rest of the group.

"Dragon! Are you serious?" Erza hearing there might be a dragon became tense.

"No, the smell is similar to a dragon but different." Nastu and the group looked at the wooden gate that was blocked off. As they were about to enter they heard footsteps and heard a voice.

"Young warriors what you smell is the smell of the Magma Wyrm." A man wearing silver dragon armor spoke to them as he approached them.

He is 6'3ft tall, muscular and riped, wearing a white shining armor mix with grey color and dragon heads on both armor shoulders, dragon helmet covering his whole head with Yellow visor covering his front face.

He is wearing a white robe covering all over his body and there are screen projections inside his helmet as he begin to scan all of them. "So they are not in the data tower, that means they are from outside tower!" The person said.

He is scanning them to look at their identity but he found nothing about them, no names, no age, no birth date, nothing. He came only one conclusion, they are from outside the tower that is destroy by the tower.

"Woah, you have such cool looking armor!" Natsu and happy shouted at the same time in excitement, meanwhile Lucy and wendy are slightly wary of this newly arrival man.

Erza looking at the man armor create stars on bith if her eyes, she look at this man armor which looks powerful and stylish, not to mention this armor must be crafted from a smith with such outstanding crafting skill and experience.

"Can you explain what wyrmms are and who are you?" Panther lily asked vigilant on the man.

"My name is Draco. And to answer your question Wyrms are quadrupedal draconic creatures with torn, vestigial wings and broad heads. Once human heroes that partook of Dragon Communion and were cursed to crawl the earth as flightless imitations of Dragons, losing their humanity in the process." Draco words left the group stunned with the new information.

" They were Human, no way," Lucy murmured as she was digesting everything she just heard.

"Hey, What's the Dragon Communion?" Gajeel asked curious about something involving dragons, Nastu, and Wendy also waited to hear what he would say.

"Ah the Dragon Communion is when a ritual where a warrior takes the heart of a slayed drake and offers it up at any of the dragon churches and in exchange for the heart one of the dragon's abilities will be given but if the warrior can't take the power they become Wyrms." Draco explained to them.

"I see. So Draco will you join us in fighting the Magma Wyrm?" Erza questioned Alexander wondering if he would join them or leave.

"If you wish I would join you." As Draco said that, the group entered the boss room where the magma Wyrm was.

The wooden gate creaked as Erza pushed it open, revealing a vast, cavernous chamber. The air was thick with the stench of sulfur and burning rock. Streams of molten lava crisscrossed the ground, bathing the room in a hellish glow. At the center, coiled around a pool of magma, was the Magma Wyrm. Its crimson scales shimmered, and its molten breath hissed as it slumbered, momentarily oblivious to the intruders.

"Whoa..." Natsu's grin stretched ear to ear.

"Now that's what I call a monster!" His excitement was palpable, even as the wyrm began to stir.

Gray glared at him. "Don't even think about charging in alone, you idiot."

"Oh, I wasn't thinking about it," Natsu replied, cracking his knuckles. "I'm doing it!"

Before anyone could stop him, Natsu surged forward, fire igniting in his fists. The Magma Wyrm's eyes snapped open, glowing with a fiery intensity. It let out a guttural roar, shaking the chamber as it uncoiled and rose to its full height.

"Natsu! Don't be reckless!" Erza called, her voice sharp.

The wyrm lunged, spewing molten fire. Natsu dodged nimbly, countering with a fiery uppercut. "Fire Dragon Iron Fist!" His flames clashed with the wyrm's molten breath, causing an explosion that lit up the chamber.

Gajeel charged in next, his arms transforming into iron. "Iron Dragon Sword!" He slammed his weaponized limbs into the wyrm's flank, chipping away at its molten scales.

"Wendy, buffs!" Erza commanded as she charged in with her sword. Wendy nodded, summoning her magic.

"Roar of the Sky Dragon!" Wendy unleashed a vortex of wind that cooled the lava slightly, creating safe zones for her allies to move.

"Armor of the Flame Empress!" Erza donned her blazing red armor, absorbing the heat and delivering a powerful slash across the wyrm's side. Sparks flew as her blade met the beast's scales.

Lucy joined in, summoning Virgo and Taurus for assistance. "Help keep it distracted!" she ordered. The celestial spirits darted around, striking at the wyrm's exposed joints while avoiding its deadly tail swipes.

"Water Nebula!" Juvia stood beside Gray, both their powers intertwining, her water-based attack clashing with the magma wyrm's fiery breath.

Gray added, "Ice-Make: Lance!" His ice spears struck the beast, momentarily cooling sections of its body.

"Iron Fist!" He delivered a heavy blow to the wyrm's head, staggering it.

Draco leaped into the fray and delivered a heavy blow to the wyrm's head, staggering it.

Despite their efforts, the wyrm remained ferocious. It reared back and slammed its body into the ground, sending molten waves surging toward the group.

"Back!" Erza shouted, and everyone scattered.

"It's strong... even with all of us." Wendy panted, her magic dwindling. Carla and Happy looked beside Wendy waiting for the right time to help, they felt limited since they couldn't Fly much in this room. Panther Lily was fighting with the group swinging his large sword and distracting the Wyrm.

Natsu wiped the sweat from his brow. "We'll take it down. I'm just getting started!" His body flared with intense flames.

"Dragon Slayer Secret Art: Crimson Lotus Exploding Flame Blade!" His attacks landed hard, causing the wyrm to roar in pain. It staggered but retaliated with a massive swipe of its tail, sending Natsu flying into the wall.

"Natsu!" Wendy and Lucy cried, but the fiery dragon slayer pushed himself up, grinning.

"I'm fine! Let's finish this!" Natsu reassure them that he is alright.

The group rallied, combining their strongest attacks. Gray's ice, Juvia's water, Erza's swordplay, and Gajeel's iron fists hammered into the beast. Natsu charged one last time, his flames burning brighter than ever.

With a final, earth-shaking roar, the Magma Wyrm collapsed, its body dissipating into ash, A blue screen saying Great Enemy Felled appeared. Each member has 7500 points and a dragon's heart. The Moonveil Katana lay in the center, Erza picked it up and sensed its power, she poured her magical power into it and felt her body move then drawing the katana out of the sheath a blue magic sword slash appeared.

Draco clapped his hands. "An incredible fight! Well done, warriors of Fairy Tail!"

"Your strong Draco." Natsu complemented Draco and exited the Geal Tunnel, they were told to head south toward the Cathedral of dragon Communion by Alexander and separated ways. As the group began to head there they saw two people approach them.

"Fancy meeting you out here," Kisuke Urahara said lightly and in friendly tones. "Name's Kisuke. Looks like we're headed the same way."

"We've heard about the Cathedral too." Yoruichi added, her smile sharp. "Mind if we join you?"

Erza nodded. "The more, the better. We would be glad to have you two."

As the two groups met, the talking started. Lucy inquired with Kisuke about his hat, and he laughed, telling the "practical and stylish" history of the accessory. Meanwhile, Yoruichi teased Gajeel about his gruff demeanor, something which actually got a very rare laugh out of the iron dragon slayer.

Wendy, after some shyness, really warmed up as Yoruichi playfully nudged her about stepping up as the group's "official little powerhouse".

Happy and Carla flew overhead, making humorous comments a bout the absurdity of it all, while Juvia merely hovered close to Gray, silent but happy simply to be near him.

As they headed south further, the land began to get spookier. Clearing, they saw a clearing with an old man in a black robe with three stars embroidered into it. Standing in a circle around him were four figures, Azazel, Vali, Tsunade, and Shizune, silently regarding their approach with interest.

He raised his head, his tone even and mystical. "I am Malgrove, keeper of knowledge. If you seek answers about this land, the towers, or it's mysteries, I offer them–for a price."

"Oh and what should We use as a form of payment." Irene and Ajeel also arrived, Irene and Erza sharing eye contact before a new voice could be heard.

"Looks like there quite a few people here."

Orochimaru and Kabuto were the new ones to appear, and the last group to join was Sirzechs joined with Grayfia his wife and his sister and her peerage. The different groups of people all raised their guards prepared for a fight, Kisuke ignoring the situation was the first to ask his question.

"So Malgrove, I want to know how many floors there will be in the future?" Kisuke care free attitude was gone replaced with a serious one.

"That isn't an answer I can give you, but you can ask me another question and I can show it to you." Malgrove turned his head and looked at kisuke and the others.

They are surprised of Malgrove's words. "What!?, why can't you answer his question?" Yoruichi wants an answer and irritated that they can't know how many floors in the tower.

"The reason I can't answer his question because the rules of the tower." Malgrove explain to them why he can't answer that question.

"Rules of the Tower?" Tsunade ask, she is interested of this tower rules, if Malgrove can't answer their question then it must be because of the tower rules. The others are also curious and interested of these Tower rules maybe they can use this knowledge to know more about the tower.

"Yes, that is correct." Malgrove said.

"Then can you tell use the rules of the tower?" Orochimaru is eager to know more about the tower and it secrets.

"If you want to know of the tower rules, that will be 100,000 points." Malgrove words shocking everyone.

"What! It's that expensive." Lucy is surprise of how many points you need to spend if you want to know the tower rules.

"I think we should not spent our points on the tower rules because we will know these rules once we climb more higher floors." Kisuke said and everyone agreed. He is right spending that much points to know the rules of the tower is too much.
