Chapter 2: SFDI: Chapter 2
"Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!"
Drake rubbed his arm as he stood up from the ground. The fall from the ti-space rift had been quite a hard one.
If it weren’t for his increasingly strong body thanks to his Dragon Slayer magic training, this fall alone would have caused serious injury.
Drake never imagined an accident would happen while traveling through the Eclipse Gate.
Just monts ago, after stepping into the Eclipse Gate opened by Anna, a magic circle inexplicably appeared around him.
At first, he thought it was a normal reaction to passing through the gate, but then he saw the panic on Anna’s face.
That’s when Drake realized sothing was wrong. Without thinking, he tossed Natsu behind him to Anna, and was swallowed by the magic circle.
When Drake could see light again, he was falling from the air, finally crashing heavily to the ground. After a long while, he regained consciousness and stood up, surveying his surroundings.
"Hopefully, I haven’t deviated too far from Natsu’s ti. A century or two difference would give
a headache...!"
Drake’s words trailed off. His eyes fixed on a spot, as if he had seen sothing unbelievable.
It was a gigantic skull, the size of a small hill. Its shape was also peculiar. Besides the normal two eye sockets, there was a circular depression on the forehead, as if an eye had once been there.
In addition, there were two huge curved horns on either side of the skull. This couldn’t possibly be the skull of a normal creature; it looked more like the skull of a demon god.
Drake pinched himself. He thought the Eclipse Gate malfunction would only send him to a different point in ti, but it had brought him to another world entirely.
The striking landmark made Drake recognize it instantly. He had left the Fairy Tail world and entered another magical world.
This was the world of the black... three, four, five, or countless clover leaves!
While, like the Fairy Tail world, it was a world of magic, the magic here was completely different.
In this world, the amount of magic power each person possessed was innate; magic wasn’t learned but a birthright. True potential is unlocked at age fifteen, upon receiving one’s Grimoire.
Indeed, in this world, Grimoires were the most important things.
The size, thickness, and appearance of Grimoires varied from person to person. Grimoires chose their owners, which was the first test of one’s magical talent.
There were four kingdoms in this world, and the core patterns on the Grimoires received in each kingdom differed.
The main setting of the story... the Clover Kingdom, granted Grimoires with a cloverleaf pattern.
The number of leaves on the cloverleaf represented the holder’s magical talent.
Drake was currently on the border of the Clover Kingdom, in Hage Village, the hotown of Asta, the protagonist.
Drake sighed, his face full of worry. This unexpected turn of events was completely outside his plans. Even with his mature mind, he felt a bit lost.
He raised his hands and slapped his face forcefully, encouraging himself. "No! It’s too early to give up. Don’t forget my promise with Igneel. Natsu is still waiting!"
Drake quickly adjusted his mindset. He understood from his past life that all difficulties stemd from insufficient ability.
This was a world of magic, and magic represented the power of miracles. Even crossing worlds wasn’t impossible.
Didn’t the magic circle that appeared around him when he arrived in this world prove that?
"Grrr... grrr..."
Drake, who had just been invigorated, instantly deflated, feeling weak.
He hadn’t eaten anything since yesterday. Since learning Dragon Slayer magic, his body, transford by dragon power, had beco stronger, but his nutritional needs had also greatly increased.
