God Slayer Magic, the Legend of Gods

Yun Feiyang stopped absorbing, his palms glowing with a faint, lustrous light.

He looked up!

"Huh? Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Nothing, it's nothing!"

Makarov retracted his gaze, which had been looking at a monster, and said, "That's right, this is Magic Power!"

"It is indeed quite unique. It's linked to Mental Power, stored within the body, and is closely tied to one's own physical state!"

Makarov nodded repeatedly as he listened. This child had such high comprehension!

"Right, what were you going to say just now? You said how long did this step take you? Three..."

"Ahem! Three minutes. It only took me three minutes back then!"

"Really?"

Yun Feiyang looked at him with suspicion!

"Would I lie to you? Let me tell you, even though you were a tiny bit faster than me, you can't get complacent, understand? There are plenty of powerhouses on this continent, and pride won't get you very far!"

Absolutely, absolutely could not let him know the truth. Otherwise, where would he put his old face?

"Got it. I never said I would be proud, so stop lecturing me at every turn!"

"Alright, now let me see which type of magic you've awakened."

Makarov explained, "After completing the first step of gathering Magic Power, you will awaken a type of magic upon becoming a Mage. This magic is generally the most suitable for you, as it is transformed based on your own beliefs."

"Of course, if you don't like this type of magic, you can also learn others."

"Is that so?"

Yun Feiyang raised his hand, and a small whirlwind spun in his palm.

"It's Wind Magic!"

This was normal. Yun Feiyang had a premonition of this, as he excelled in the Mumei Shinpū-ryū, so naturally, his affinity with the Wind Element was the highest.

Makarov provided some background: "There are many types of magic, such as Transformation Magic, Costume Change Magic, Reception Magic, and Modeling Magic. The magic world divides magic into two categories: Ability Type and Possession Type. Wind, like light, belongs to the Ability Type of elemental magic."

"Of course, even within the same type of magic, there are differences in levels. For example, ordinary Flame Magic and the ancient Fire Dragon Slayer Magic have a world of difference in power. Another example is my Gigantification, which belongs to a type of transformation magic."

Yun Feiyang knew this. The most precious things in this world were those ancient Lost Magics, such as Dragon Slayer Magic, God Slayer Magic, and so on.

"Then which type does mine belong to?"

Makarov scoffed upon hearing this, "Kid, don't overthink it. Those high-level magics are rare and hard to come by; you can't just stumble upon them so easily. What you have is the most basic Wind Magic."

"Huh? That's way too disappointing!"

"Well~ actually, everyone is the same. What we awaken is always the most basic magic. Take me, for example; I awakened the most basic Light Magic. Gigantification was something I learned later on."

Glancing at his short, stout stature, Yun Feiyang nodded in understanding.

Makarov roared in anger, "Kid, do you know how rude you are?"

"Alright, continue absorbing the Magic Microparticles. Let me see how much initial magic power you have."

Yun Feiyang: ???

Makarov explained, "The human body is like a water tank, and magic power is the water. How much one can store varies from person to person; after all, everyone's constitution is different."

"Understood, it's a matter of talent again!"

"Exactly! But it's not impossible to improve it later on. If you persist in meditation every day, your total magic power will slowly increase! Hmm... two to four hours of meditation a day is enough; too much is as bad as too little!"

"Fine!"

Yun Feiyang sat down to meditate once more, and a glow appeared on the surface of his body again.

As time passed, the Magic Microparticles in the vicinity were attracted and gathered around, being drawn into his body and converted into magic power.

Makarov was satisfied, "Peerless talent. It's normal to have this kind of phenomenon!"

Soon, however, he could no longer remain calm!

As more and more Magic Microparticles gathered, the speed at which they surged in became faster and faster, eventually forming a visible vortex above Yun Feiyang's head, completely dropping Makarov's jaw!

"Impossible! This is impossible!"

Makarov shook his head like a rattle, his face full of disbelief.

"This amount, it's absolutely impossible!"

This was no longer a matter of peerless talent; it was a bona fide bizarre phenomenon, enough to rank among the top ten unsolved mysteries of the magical world!

"So, is this the scale of a monster?"

At this moment, Makarov felt deeply frustrated; the title of one of the Ten Wizard Saints didn't even feel prestigious anymore!

It wasn't over yet!

A black wind drifted out from the statue and followed, drilling into Yun Feiyang's body, making Makarov's eyes widen like copper bells!

"This is..."

"This child..."

"Is the heavens favoring him?"

The Magic Microparticles rioted, taking a long time to settle down. Yun Feiyang opened his eyes, a glimmer of light flowing within them.

He sprang to his feet, clenching his fists in excitement!

"I can feel it! My body is overflowing with power!"

Nonsense. With that much magic power stored inside him, it would be strange if he didn't feel powerful!

At this moment, Makarov really wanted to retort.

"Huh? Guild Master, why is your jaw on the floor? Hurry up and pick it up!"

"Ahem!"

Stay calm, I must stay calm. I am one of the Ten Wizard Saints, after all; I cannot be looked down upon by a mere youth.

Makarov regained his dignified air and asked, "Did you just obtain something?"

"As expected of the Guild Master, you could even tell that!"

Yun Feiyang raised his hand again, and a small whirlwind formed in his palm. The difference was that this whirlwind was black, filled with depth and mystery.

He grinned, boasting, "Wind God Slayer Magic, I was fortunate enough to obtain it!"

Makarov sighed with emotion, "Just as I thought!"

He looked at the flamboyant youth, then glanced at the statue nearby, and said, "If you tell me you have no connection to him, I wouldn't believe it even if you beat me to death!"

"Him? Who is he? Did he give me this God Slayer Magic?"

Yun Feiyang truly didn't know, as this Lost Magic had appeared in his mind suddenly, just like the Mumei Shinpū-ryū had in the past.

"Since you have obtained his God Slayer Magic, there is no harm in telling you!"

It was time for a story!

Yun Feiyang sat down, stroking Little White, who was fast asleep.

The little guy seemed to have grown a size larger; it was likely that the elemental torrent from just moments ago had provided it with quite a few benefits as well.

"Legend has it that in the ancient era, before there were humans on this continent, the God Race lived here."

"Gods?"

Yun Feiyang asked in surprise, "Do gods really exist in this world?"

Makarov shrugged. "Who knows? Anyway, I've never seen one!"

"Rumor has it that after humans appeared, a war broke out between the two races. Humans relied on God Slayer Magic learned from the gods to defeat the God Race and drive them off this continent."

"Ever since then, gods have become nothing more than legends!"

Yun Feiyang pointed at the statue and asked, "So, is he a god? Otherwise, why would he need to be sealed?"

"As for that, I'm not entirely sure. There are two versions of the legend."

"One is that he was the Wind God of the God Race, who was defeated by humans and suppressed here for all eternity."

"The other is that he was the first human to defeat a god. Because of God Slayer Magic, he became a new god, only to be eventually defeated by other humans working together and sealed here."

"I can't determine which one is true, but one thing is certain: he is extremely dangerous. Otherwise, he wouldn't have remained sealed, requiring the seal to be reinforced every ten years."

"I don't know much about God Slayer Magic, but there is one thing you must pay attention to!"

Makarov stared solemnly at Yun Feiyang and warned, "The emergence of God Slayer Magic is meant to allow humans to cultivate and Become a God, granting them a Godly Physique and Godly Might. In this regard, it is very similar to Dragon Slayer Magic."

"There might be some downsides to it, so you must be careful and cautious in the future!"

After glancing at the statue, Yun Feiyang nodded seriously. "I will be careful!"

Godly Physique, Godly Might, becoming a god? I have to say, I'm a little excited!
