Fairy Tail: This Healing Mage's hits hurt so much!

Twelve different dimensions floated in the air, and the scene inside the door was being projected onto the light screen. It was the twelve constellation door that everyone had just passed through, and the scenes that had happened inside the door were being replayed on the screen.

This made Gray and Gajeel dig their toes into the ground.

The two stared at the image on the screen, their expressions indescribable.

If they cooperated, they could carve out a luxurious castle.

The celestial sphere began to revolve along the trajectory of the twelve different dimensions, its red light sweeping across the starry sky in circles, like a giant blood-red eye.

Where the red light swept across, even the cracks in the rubble were tinged with blood, and the air felt thick and sticky.

The eerie red light made everyone present feel uneasy.

Natsu clenched his fists, and flames erupted as he strode towards Leo.

"Leave this bastard to me! You guys go deal with that... what the heck!"

Erza and Mirajane exchanged a glance, then simultaneously spread their wings and soared toward the Celestial Sphere.

Gray looked at Natsu, who was fighting Leo.

"Hey! You idiot, don't lose, or I'll laugh at you every day when we get back!"

"Shut up! You stinky ice cube..."

Before Natsu could finish speaking, Leo's fist was already shoved into his mouth.

With a dull thud, a fist slammed into his mouth, forcefully silencing him from the rest of his sentence.

He gritted his teeth and threw a punch back, knocking Leo back two steps, leaving a charred fist mark on the golden armor on his chest.

Leo unleashed dark flames that blasted Natsu away.

The scorching waves of black fire crashed onto the ground, sending up a layer of rubble flying.

Natsu did a somersault in mid-air, opened his mouth and took a big bite of black fire, chewed it, and swallowed it.

Leo sneered, thinking that Natsu was simply courting death, and let him do as he pleased.

"It's no use, this is the Flame of the King! It's impossible for a mere human to devour it."

He spoke with certainty, but his eyes darted around.

Natsu grinned, sparks flying from between his teeth.

"Enough with the nonsense, if it's hot, I can have it!"

Natsu devoured the dark flames, the black fire burning his internal organs, a sensation of both pain and pleasure rising to the top of his head.

The flames on his body included wisps of black flames and blue flames, with the blue flames climbing up his shoulders and wrapping around his arms.

"Thank you for the treat, let's get this party started!"

Natsu shattered the ground with a single step, sending shards of rock flying, and a blazing fist appeared before Leo, enveloped in triple flames.

The Fire Dragon's Iron Fist

Leo only had time to raise his hand to block.

Flames burst forth from his body, tearing a large hole in the golden armor on Leo's back. Flames lingered around the hole, burning the edges of the armor plates until they curled up.

As the punch landed, spiderweb-like cracks appeared on the ground beneath Leo's feet.

Natsu's offensive was like a storm.

Punch after punch landed on Leo, the sparks flying onto the ground, one after another.

The force of the punch, accompanied by sparks, struck Leo's face, scorching the stray hairs on his forehead until they curled up.

"Enough! Humans!"

Dark flames erupted from Leo's body, exploding instantly and sending Natsu flying with the immense impact.

Natsu adjusted his posture in mid-air and unleashed magic, sending scorching flames hurtling towards Leo.

The Roar of the Fire Dragon

The pillar of fire, wreathed in black, blue, and red flames, roared in like a three-colored fire dragon, carving a scorched trench in the ground wherever it passed.

[Dark Flame Devouring]

Leo opened his arms, and dark flames ignited on them before gradually closing them.

The dark flames in his palm swirled, absorbing all of Natsu's flames and forming a fireball.

The fireball spun in Leo's palm, its black, red, and blue colors swirling and crackling, scalding his palm and causing white steam to rise from it.

"Here you go!"

Leo pushed the fireball in his hand out.

The dark fireball hurtled toward Natsu like a meteor.

Natsu dodged to the side, and the fireball exploded behind him. The dark flames surged and engulfed the stone ground within a dozen meters, turning it into a scorched wasteland.

Meanwhile, Erza and Mirajane had already reached the vicinity of the Celestial Sphere.

Erza struck the sphere with a slash, and as soon as the sword fell, a red light bounced back, blasting her away and crashing into half of a stone pillar.

She stood up, leaning on her sword; a scorch mark appeared on her armor.

Mirajane's ink flames slammed into the sphere, but were also bounced off, the flames rebounding and scorching her as she retreated repeatedly.

The two exchanged a glance across the celestial sphere, but neither of them stepped forward.

The ball is like a mirror; every attack bounces back exactly as it was.

The others launched magical attacks on the celestial sphere, but they were all deflected. In addition, they also had to deal with Ophiuchus, leaving everyone covered in wounds.

"Hey hey, looks like you can't break the ritual, nurse."

Princess Emerald pondered a solution. Since there was no immediate way to deal with the Celestial Sphere, what other approach could she take?

Natsu is now completely disregarding Leo's flames.

After absorbing the opponent's magic, the dragon's body will gradually adapt; this is one of the core principles of dragon-slaying magic.

The blue flames on Natsu's body had taken up most of his body, pushing the other two types of flames to the edge. They moved around like living things, shimmering with a comfortable warm light.

Three flames intertwined on his fist, crackling and popping.

He charged forward again to engage in hand-to-hand combat.

After that round of ranged attacks, both sides realized that only close combat could defeat the other!

Both men's fists were engulfed in flames, each punch delivered with tremendous force, neither willing to back down.

Natsu's right fist slammed into Leo's chest, flames flew everywhere, and cracks appeared in Leo's golden armor.

Leo raised his hand, grabbed his arm, and pressed it down, while raising his leg to ram Natsu's chest.

Natsu used his free left hand to press down on his thigh, rolled to the side, and the two fell to the side.

The two kicked out simultaneously, striking each other in the chest, and flames exploded.

The shockwave carried away the flying debris, which slammed against the nearby broken wall with a thud.

They slid for more than ten meters before Leo crashed into a rock and stopped, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth.

The rock was smashed open, and pebbles fell down in a flurry.

Natsu rolled over and stood up abruptly, the blue flames on his body increasing, seemingly unaware of it.

The blue flames grew stronger, flickering as if sending signals.

"Huh?! What happened?"

Before he finished speaking, the blue flames exploded with a roar, and a pillar of fire shot into the sky.

The blue flames on Natsu's body surged uncontrollably, and he felt his magic power being drained from his body. He weakly knelt on the ground.

"Ugh... Damn Sunrise."

The blue flames were a hundred meters high. Lucy, who was crouching behind a stone pillar nearby, stared wide-eyed, not knowing what was happening.

She covered her mouth, barely daring to breathe, her hand gripping the keychain trembling.

"Natsu! What's wrong with you? Isn't that the Solar Flare? Why does it feel like it's burning something?"

Just as Lucy had guessed, the blue flames were scorching a spatial node high in the sky, and the situation there also caught Mirajane and the others' attention.

"What is that idiot doing?!"

"The flames of the sun?"

They were also completely baffled by the situation.

Lucy yelled at them.

"Natsu is being drained dry by the Solar Flare! That flame seems to have a life of its own."

"What exactly is the situation?"

Mirajane flew back to see what was going on, when the sound of shattering glass came from high above.
