Godslayer and Dragon Slayer, who is stronger?

"No!"

Makarov, sitting at the bar, said, "You just got here. Get familiar with the environment first!"

The subtext was that since you know nothing about this magical continent, you'll suffer if you rush into taking missions.

"You have to follow the rules!"

Gray leaned in and said, "Among us, aside from Erza, even when we take missions, we can only run errands around town. Don't even think about anything else."

Yun Feiyang understood what he meant. It was because they were too young, their strength was too weak, and their minds weren't mature yet; this was a form of protection in disguise.

"Is that so? I remember you're a veteran of the guild, and Erza only joined the year before last. She's already able to go out on missions, yet you can't! Tsk tsk tsk... Also, please put your clothes on before you keep talking."

"Hey! Do you know how rude that is? Who judges things based on when someone joined? If you put it that way, Kana has been in the guild even longer, and she's still stuck doing small missions too."

As for the issue of his little worm wiggling about, Gray ignored it entirely, because for a pervert, this was just the norm.

"Hm? Who's calling me?"

After looking left and right, Kana continued hugging her giant beer barrel, gulping it down!

Gray's mouth twitched. "Forget it, just pretend she doesn't exist!"

Makarov said, "The guild has a Library. If you want to know something, you can go look it up yourself."

"That works too!"

Yun Feiyang also wanted to learn more about this world.

However, his path was blocked by Natsu!

"Feiyang, don't ignore me! Let's duel!"

Yun Feiyang covered his forehead. "You really are a headache!"

"Fine, fine, let's have a fight. Once it's over, you can't come bother me anymore!"

"What do you mean 'bother'? This is a friendly spar!"

Natsu said excitedly, "Let's go outside! I'm already fired up!"

"No need, right here is fine. It'll be over quickly!"

"Oh ho~ Looks like you have no confidence in yourself, or are you looking to beg for mercy after seeing the powerful Lord Natsu?"

Yun Feiyang rolled his eyes. Where do you get this mysterious confidence from?

The crowd cleared a space, giving the two of them room for their duel.

Erza said with great interest, "Feiyang's swordsmanship is incredible. As for his magic... it's the perfect chance to see it for myself!"

Makarov joined in on the excitement, "Natsu, remember to give it your all!"

"Huh? Why?"

Gray reminded him, "Idiot, the Guild Master thinks you're going to lose!"

"What? Me, the great Natsu, losing? That's impossible!"

"Begin!"

Natsu immediately rushed forward, unable to wait any longer!

"Watch this!"

"Iron Fist of the Fire Dragon... huh?"

A gust of wind swept by, and the flames erupting from Natsu's fist were instantly blown out.

"Where did that wind come from?"

Yun Feiyang stood with his arms crossed, looking completely composed. "Is that all you've got?"

"Of course not!"

"Iron Fist of the Fire..."

"Fire Dragon's..."

"Huh? Huh? Huh?"

"Why is this happening?"

Every time his flames began to flare up, they were immediately extinguished by a sudden, violent gust of wind. The single-minded Natsu clutched his head, questioning his entire existence.

"Haha... Natsu, is that really all you've got?"

"You want to duel someone when you haven't even mastered your own magic?"

"Go back and practice some more!"

Erza nodded. "I see. Feiyang's magic is wind!"

"Damn it, even if I can't release my flames, I won't admit defeat!"

"I don't need the Iron Fist of the Fire Dragon!"

Disregarding everything, Natsu threw a punch!

Yun Feiyang beckoned with his finger, "Wind Binding!"

The wind formed around Natsu, binding him tightly.

"Damn it, let me go! If you've got guts, let's have a fair and square fight!"

Natsu struggled desperately, but he just couldn't break free!

"No, you've already lost. If you want something fair and square, you should go to a bathhouse."

"I don't accept this! I don't accept this!"

Yun Feiyang walked over and knocked him to the ground with a single punch.

"A loss is a loss. It's useless even if you don't accept it!"

"I'm going to read. Don't disturb me!"

Yun Feiyang turned and walked away with a flourish.

"Haha... KO'd by one punch. Natsu, you're too weak!"

No, it was clearly that the other guy was too strong!

Erza asked, "Guild Master, what kind of magic is Feiyang using?"

"It wouldn't hurt to tell you all. He is using an ancient magic, a type of Lost Magic: Wind God Slayer Magic!"

"God Slayer Magic?!"

"Never heard of it!"

"I think I've seen it in records; it's a very powerful magic!"

"There's such a magic?"

Natsu sprang to his feet and asked, "How does it compare to my Dragon Slayer Magic?"

Makarov scratched his head, "How would I know? He is the only person I have ever seen who possesses this kind of magic!"

"However, one is for dealing with dragons, and the other is for dealing with gods. Ask yourself: are dragons more powerful, or are gods?"

Natsu said as a matter of course, "Of course dragons are more powerful! Even a god could be slain!"

The crowd booed. Any normal person would think gods are more powerful, because, well, they're gods!

Makarov laughed heartily, "You really are confident! But whether it's God Slayer or Dragon Slayer, the use of magic lies with the individual. In that regard, Natsu, you are inferior to Feiyang."

"What? I'm not as good as him?!"

"Isn't that obvious? You lost, without a shred of resistance!"

"Heh, I'm still young! I'll beat him in the future!"

Gray cursed, "You idiot Natsu, Feiyang is only a year older than us, he'll grow too!"

"You're the idiot, Droopy-Eyes!"

"Stupid Slanty-Eyes, do you want to get beaten up again?"

"Just you try!"

And so, having locked eyes, the two began their daily squabble.

Makarov wore a strange expression. I haven't even told you guys that he only learned magic yesterday; it's probably going to be tough for you to catch up to him!

Arriving at the library, Yun Feiyang scratched his head in distress as he looked at the overflowing bookshelves.

"How am I supposed to find anything in all this?"

Then, he spotted a green-haired man surrounded by a mountain of books.

"Hello, my name is Yun... uh... you can just call me Feiyang. I'm a newcomer who just joined the guild yesterday."

"Hello, I'm Fried. I know who you are!"

Fried Justine, fourteen years old this year. At this moment, he was not yet the member of the Thunder God Tribe who would follow Laxus, but a shy, socially awkward boy with little presence.

His first specialty was Array Setup, a type of Barrier Magic. It was a rule-based magic that was highly practical and powerful, though its drawback was that it had to be set up in advance.

His second specialty was Dark Script. By using a sword to write characters on a target or himself, he could turn those words into reality. It felt a bit like the magic brush of Ma Liang—a very impressive ability.

"Could I ask where the books about the Magic Continent are?"

"That bookshelf to the right of the main entrance."

"Ah~ thank you so much!"

"You're welcome. I'm very familiar with this place, so feel free to ask me if you want to find anything. Though, you can't go up to the second floor yet."

"Why? Do I need to be S-Class again?"

"That's not it. You have to spend Mission Points to study the books on the second floor."

Every completed mission earned points, with the amount depending on the mission's rank.

"Then, if I may ask, what kind of books are on the second floor? Why do they require points?"

"Most of them are grimoires, and some are rare, powerful magics."

Yun Feiyang suddenly understood. So that was it!

In other words, one had to make sufficient contributions to the guild to learn the magic it had collected.

"Thank you very much for your help!"
