Internet Magic in Fairy Tail (Re-upload)

Irene lay under the blanket, claiming she was there to "serve," but she hadn't even taken off her hat.

Nate walked over and yanked the blanket off.

"Ah~~!"

Irene let out a shy squeal.

Seeing her fully dressed—without having removed a single piece of clothing—Nate was at a loss for words. At least, he thought, she'd had the decency to take off her shoes before getting into bed.

"If you really want to sleep here, at least take off your clothes."

"Take them off? How embarrassing."

Irene blinked, her cheeks slightly flushed.

Nate wasn't sure if she was genuinely embarrassed or just pretending. Probably the latter.

"Who sleeps with their clothes on, anyway?"

Smirking, Nate opened the Magic Net's camera function and snapped a few pictures of Irene lying on the bed.

"What are you doing, Kami-sama?"

"Next time, I'll show these to your daughter and tell her how flirty her mom is," Nate said, unable to suppress a laugh.

Irene remained silent.

She'd only been teasing him, but now he had completely flipped the script, catching her off guard. Her face turned visibly redder, and soon even her neck and ears were flushed.

"Please don't~!"

Irene shifted from lying down to kneeling on the bed. "I was wrong, Kami-sama, please forgive me~"

"And what exactly did you do wrong?"

"What did I do wrong?"

Nate rolled his eyes. "Think carefully about it. I'll give you three chances. Otherwise, I'll send these pictures to Erza."

"Was it wrong not to take off my clothes?" Irene ventured, smiling slyly.

"At least you took off your shoes, so I'll give you credit for that," Nate replied, exasperated.

"Was it wrong not to take a bath?" Irene said, giggling as she covered her face.

Nate was left speechless. Why did she have to make it so ridiculous?

Click, click, click.

He snapped a few more photos in rapid succession.

Honestly, Irene was stunning—like a more mature version of Erza, precisely the kind of woman Nate was drawn to. And what type of woman did he like? The answer was simple: young, well-endowed, and with a great figure.

When Irene saw that he was still taking pictures, she finally broke character.

"Enough already! I get it!" she huffed.

"I don't think you do." Nate grinned and teased her further. "Now, try a different pose."

"No way!"

Irene gritted her teeth, realizing her plan to tease him had completely backfired.

"Kami-sama, you wouldn't really send those pictures to Erza, would you?"

She still wanted to maintain some dignity in front of her daughter.

At that moment, a noise came from outside the room. Someone had opened the suite door and was walking toward them.

Startled, Irene jumped out of bed and dashed into the bathroom to hide.

Nate couldn't help but laugh.

There was a knock on the bedroom door.

"Nate, you awake?"

It was Natsu's voice.

Nate turned off the Magic Net and walked to the door. Outside stood Natsu, Happy, Elfman, and Gray, all holding food.

"Just about to sleep. What's up?"

Nate noticed the pile of food they were carrying.

"You missed out, man. The banquet was full of great stuff," Natsu said with a big grin.

"Aye~! We brought you some fruit," Happy added, holding up a bag of fresh produce.

"Thanks."

Nate took the bag graciously, then remembered something. "By the way, who's going to guard the arena tomorrow?"

"Leave it to me," Gray volunteered. "I'll handle tomorrow, and Elfman can take over the day after."

Elfman pounded his chest and declared, "Don't worry, Nate. A real man never loses a match. My Machamp is invincible!"

Curious, Nate asked, "How many matches did you win today?"

Gray chuckled. "Four wins and one loss for me. Elfman went three and two. Natsu only won one match—he's lost four already."

If Natsu lost another, he'd be eliminated.

Nate looked surprised. "Only a Charizard, and he still managed to win a match? Who did he beat?"

"Borā from Titan Nose," Happy replied, rolling his eyes. "It was hilarious. The moment Borā saw Natsu, he forfeited."

Nate pictured it vividly. Back in Hargeon, Borā had pretended to be the 'Fire Dragon' but ended up getting clobbered by Natsu.

"We'll win tomorrow!" Natsu exclaimed, clenching his fists. "Igneera would never fall here!"

Nate wasn't sure what to say. Natsu's Charizard was indeed ridiculously strong, even surpassing fully-leveled, max-bond Pokémon. But pulling off a 6v1 was still a tall order—though not impossible.

"Good luck," Nate said, nodding slightly.

After seeing the group out, Nate closed the door and placed the fruit and desserts they had brought on the bedside table.

At that moment, the bathroom door opened slightly, and Irene peeked her head out.

"They're gone?"

"It was just my guildmates bringing some fruit and dessert. Want some?"

"I want to finish my bath first~" Irene said with a playful wink. She retreated into the bathroom, and soon, the sound of running water filled the room.

She really does want to sleep here, huh?

Nate shrugged. The bed was big enough, so he didn't mind.

He took off his bathrobe and slipped into bed, quickly falling asleep.

…

An hour later, a warm body suddenly slipped under the covers and hugged him from behind.

"Kami-sama, tonight, let Irene serve you?" Her voice carried an unmistakable shyness—this time, it felt genuine.

"Irene is all clean~ and all undressed~"

Hearing her soft breaths by his ear, Nate opened his eyes and turned toward her.

He reached out and confirmed with a touch—she was indeed completely undressed. Her smooth, soft skin radiated a subtle warmth.

"Are you serious about this?"

Their eyes met, and Nate was genuinely curious about what she was thinking.

"How about giving Erza a brother or sister?" Irene whispered, her tone bashful. "I want to give everything to you, Kami-sama."

Kids were off the table. Nate's magic ensured no accidental pregnancies—an advantage of living in a magic world.

Grinning, he firmly held onto her and flipped her onto the bed.

"Aren't you afraid Erza will find out?"

"She doesn't need to know~"

Her pale arms wrapped willingly around his neck as she looked at him with a hint of vulnerability. "You won't mind that I'm an older woman, will you, Nate?"

It was the first time Irene had addressed him by name.

Nate thought for a moment and smiled. "You don't seem old to me."

"But I'm over four hundred years old," Irene replied, her voice tinged with melancholy.

"In my country, we have a saying. Want to hear it?"

"What saying?"

"'Three years older, she's a treasure. Thirty years older, she'll give you wisdom. Three hundred years older, she'll grant you immortality.'"

Irene burst into laughter. Though she didn't fully understand the last part, the meaning was clear enough.

Suddenly, she felt something pressing against her stomach.

Her face turned crimson as she whispered, "Kami-sama, you're surprisingly… human."

"I'm not a god; I'm just a normal man."

With that, Nate leaned down to kiss her. Irene's heart raced as she closed her eyes and returned the kiss.

With a soft snap, Nate cast a barrier spell to soundproof the room.

Before long, the air filled with the warmth and intensity of shared passion.

Two figures intertwined, finding solace in each other.
