Fairy Tail: From Gengar to Super Rayquaza

Chapter 126 The Cause of Magical Exhaustion Syndrome
Gal took the newspaper and looked over.

The above bounty was issued by the Heartfilia family and it has been six days.

And that force of time and space swept through seven days ago.

Gar's brows were slightly furrowed, magic exhaustion syndrome.
Kana frowned as she watched Gar from the side and said:

"what happened?"

“Is this disease difficult to cure?”

Gar nodded and said:

“It’s really hard to cure.”

"Because this is a terminal illness, the longest a patient can live with this disease is only half a year."

"That's because the patient is a prince of a kingdom."

"But it's a pity."

"Even if I rely on the power of a kingdom to keep myself alive, it will be useless in the end."

"In the end, the kingdom exhausted its wealth in treating the prince, and the people were filled with resentment, so it was destroyed by the enemy country."

Kana showed surprise on her face:

"what?"

"How could this be?"

Garr said:

"Magic exhaustion requires a large amount of magic to be replenished into the patient's body in order to maintain vitality."

"And this consumption is massive, non-stop 24 hours a day."

"Even with the wealth of a kingdom, it only lasted half a year before it was all gone and could no longer be sustained."

Kana's eyes widened:
"Then there's no hope."

Gar frowned and thought for a while, then said:

“That’s the theory.”

-

Under the blue sky.

Dragonite pulled the cable car cabin and flew across the sky at an altitude of thousands of meters.

White clouds are passing by outside the window, and the scenery on the ground is unobstructed, with mountains, lakes, and the sea.
Lisanna, Elfman, and Kana all stared at the scenery below, exclaiming in surprise. The direction in which Dragonite was heading was exactly the base of the Heartfilia family.

After admiring the scenery for a while, the three little ones sat back in their seats and looked at Gar.

Gar put down the magic notebook in his hand, looked at the three people, and said:

"Next, let me tell you what magic exhaustion is."

"There is a magic factor in everything in the world."

"Magicians increase their magic power by absorbing magic factors or meditating, thus becoming stronger step by step."

"Then here's the problem."

"Where is this magic stored in the body?"

Gar's words made the three little ones feel a little confused. Kana said:

"of course"

I was suddenly speechless.

It seems that no one has ever talked about this.

Kana frowned and asked:
"Hmm where in the body?"

Gal raised his hand, and a fist-sized orange-yellow cell ball appeared in his palm.

This is a cell magnified countless times, filled with something like water flow and bubbles. Gal explained:

"The human body is made up of many things, and cells are one of them."

"It's also an important component for storing magic power."

"What you are seeing now is a cell in its normal state. It is full of magical power."

Gar pointed to the bubbling water in it, indicating that this was magic.

"Every person has tens of trillions of cells in their body." Then the orange-yellow shadow of the cells on Gar's palm began to grow larger and more solid, storing more water flow (magic power) and looking stronger.

"And as your physical fitness gradually improves, your magic power gradually increases."

"The cells will also become stronger and more energetic, thus being able to store more magic power."

Then, the orange-yellow cell shadow in Gal's palm, the water began to flow continuously, and soon disappeared, but then slowly rose back until it filled the entire cell.

"This is the process of consuming and recovering magic power."

"When you use magic, you mobilize magic power from all over your body. The magic power stored in these cells gradually decreases until it is completely gone. That's when your magic power is exhausted."

"Then you can restore your magic power by replenishing potions, or meditating and absorbing various magical materials."

"Until the cells in the body are filled with magic again."

"But the human body has its limits."

"There's only so much magic power left. It's useless when you encounter a strong enemy or something that can't be stopped."

"The magic power in my body is completely used up, but I can't stop. What will happen now?"

Kana raised her hand and said:
"It will consume your vitality!"

Gar nodded and said:

"good."

"It just consumes your vitality."

"The main cause of magic exhaustion is that after consuming a large amount of magic, one cannot stop and starts to consume vitality."

The water flow (magic power) inside the cell phantom in Gal's hand quickly decreased until it was completely consumed.

Then the light green water flow began to fill the cells quickly, but it was soon emptied again, and then the light green water flow continued to fill them quickly.

After repeating this process several times.

Under the surprised eyes of Lisanna, Elfman, and Kana, the cell in Gal's palm that originally looked strong and energetic had become loose.

Even several large holes appeared around the cells.

However, even so, this cell phantom was constantly moving, absorbing magic power at an accelerated rate. The green water inside slowly rose and flowed out from the broken hole.

Gal's voice sounded:
"When you continue to consume your vitality and restore your magic power, the cells in your body will become dilapidated after being continuously and intensively absorbing magic power and draining all the magic power."

"Even if the forbidden technique or something was released, it has stopped."

"But the cells in the body have been damaged by the continuous extraction of magic power at that intensity. It continues to absorb magic power instinctively, but the cells are damaged, causing the magic power to continue to overflow."

Then the cells in Gal's hand shrank rapidly, and then various parts of the phantom's body began to appear.

A shadowy figure emitting red light appeared in Garr's palm:
"Cells are found throughout the body, so when all the cells in the body are destroyed, the wizard's body will absorb magic power in a morbid way like this."

"However, the destroyed cells continue to overflow with magic power."

"The body craves for magic power, constantly absorbing it, while at the same time it can't help but overflow."

"Then this wizard will be like a transit station, with magic power constantly flowing in and out, and every cell in the body will be working non-stop 24 hours a day."

"And the result of this is"

The loose cell shadow appeared in Garr's hand again, and the hole in the cell shadow continued to expand until it could no longer hold magic power:
"The cells are becoming more and more damaged, and the holes in the cells are getting bigger and bigger."

"Until the cells work at this intensity for a day, a week, half a month, or a month, all the cells in the body will be completely destroyed and worn out."

"Then this wizard will also face the moment of his death."

"This process is very painful."

"Because the cells work instinctively, 24 hours a day, patients will suffer extremely painful torture every moment. Those with weaker willpower will not be able to resist suicide."

"And even those with strong willpower, like the prince of that country, could hold out for half a year."

“But the consumption is huge.”

"Even if we use the financial resources of a country to support him."

"I can't afford it."

"The country's savings have been used up in just half a year, and it is impossible to continue to survive."

"And this is also the reason why magic exhaustion is called a terminal illness."
