Chapter 140: Chapter 140: Two Dark Guilds Acting! Let's go Live!

Perhaps for this reason, Ultear quickly became popular among the guild members.

It's worth noting that, in the past, the second floor of the guild was off-limits to anyone who wasn't an S-Class mage. But now, Makarov had lifted this restriction, allowing anyone to access it. However, only S-Class mages could still take on S-Class jobs.

Of course, this didn't matter to Nate. He had no interest in taking on requests, except maybe one—the '100-Year Quest,' a century-old task that no one had completed in 100 years. Below that were the '10-Year Quests,' followed by 'SS-Class' and 'S-Class' jobs.

...

That evening, back at his apartment, Nate couldn't shake his unease. Being in the same guild as his three girlfriends made things tense, but thankfully, the first day had passed without any major issues.

As soon as he got home, Ultear messaged him.

Witch of Pain: "Back when I was with the Magic Council, my impression of Fairy Tail was that it was a bunch of troublemakers. Smile.jpg"

Witch of Pain: "But after joining, I realized it's such a lively guild. Everyone is so friendly, completely different from Grimoire Heart."

Nate smiled at the message.

Sigma Male: "Isn't the guild fun?"

Witch of Pain: "Very fun. I really like it~"

Witch of Pain: "I even had a little chat with Juvia today."

Sigma Male: "...What did you talk about?"

Nate had already come clean to Juvia the night before while they worked on rebuilding the guild together.

Sigma Male: "What did you and Juvia talk about?"

Witch of Pain: "Just some casual chatting. She seemed nervous, such a cute girl."

Witch of Pain: "Besides Juvia, I think Erza likes you too. White eyes.jpg"

'Wait, what? She's only been here for one day, and she's already figured out Erza's feelings too?'

Nate realized he hadn't mentioned Erza to Ultear yet.

Sigma Male: "How did you figure that out?"

Witch of Pain: "A woman's intuition!"

Witch of Pain: "Not just Erza, I talked to all the pretty girls in the guild."

Witch of Pain: "Mirajane, Lucy—they all seem to like you a lot. Even Levy and Cana..."

Witch of Pain: "Having such a popular boyfriend is really a headache for me."

Nate was impressed. Ultear had already gathered so much information about the guild's dynamics after just one day.

Sigma Male: "Well, it shows you have good taste."

Witch of Pain: "Flirt! You're such a bad man! Annoying little brother! White eyes.jpg"

Ultear wasn't surprised that Nate was so popular. After all, if someone like her—a "bad" woman—could fall for him, it made sense that others would too.

Witch of Pain: "But even so, I still love you~ Kiss.jpg"

The two of them chatted for another half hour, and Nate felt relieved. Ultear was easy to deal with, and she seemed to accept the fact that he had multiple girlfriends. Juvia was a bit jealous but obedient, and Erza, for now, would keep their relationship private.

Handling three relationships didn't seem too bad after all!

...

After finishing his conversation with Ultear, Nate sat at his desk and resumed working on his Magic App. Just as he was settling in, he received feedback from one of his proxies.

"The live-streaming feature is ready...?"

Raising an eyebrow, Nate immediately opened the live-streaming program his Thought Projection had sent. He thoroughly reviewed the code and found no major issues.

The feature was relatively simple and relied on [Lacrima], which transmitted images and sound, commonly used to create communication crystals. The [Magic Net Library] even had a book detailing this magic.

"The feature is easy to develop, but it will require a lot of magic power to sustain on the Magic Net."

Nate thought it would be wise to test the magic consumption rate.

At that moment, a system prompt appeared:

[Mission: Host a live broadcast and achieve simultaneous viewership from 80% of all registered Magic Net users.]

[Reward: Based on completion rate.]

A new task?

Nate checked the Magic Net's current stats:

[Total registered users: 36,661.]

Eighty percent meant he needed about 30,000 people to watch the stream at the same time.

Nate sighed. This was going to be tough.

The challenge lay in getting 30,000 people to watch simultaneously.

What kind of content could attract that many viewers?

Streaming his coding process? That would only appeal to a niche audience.

Broadcasting magic knowledge? While he was one of the Ten Wizard Saints and his expertise would draw interest, a large portion of the Magic Net's users were not mages and wouldn't understand.

A live broadcast of a ranking battle? That could work, but it would require two very famous and powerful mages to participate.

"This first live broadcast will definitely attract attention. It's my best chance to complete the mission in one go."

However, even a popular first stream wouldn't be enough.

The current number of registered users was 36,661, and the peak online time was in the evening, with just over 20,000 people online.

Even if every one of them tuned in, it wouldn't be enough.

...

The next day, when Nate arrived at the guild, he sensed a tense atmosphere.

"What's going on today?"

"Nate, you're here."

Mirajane, who was usually cheerful, was unusually serious.

Ultear, standing with one hand on her hip and the other holding a crystal ball, explained:

"Grimoire Heart attacked the Magic Council's ERA headquarters yesterday."

'Why would Hades attack the Council?'

Nate quickly deduced that it had to do with the key to Zeref's seal.

He glanced at Ultear, who nodded in confirmation.

"I thought the guild master had fallen ill..." Nate joked.

"That's not funny, Nate," Happy retorted. "It's Grimoire Heart, the strongest dark guild!"

'Two of the Seven Kin of Purgatory are standing right beside you, Happy,' Nate thought with amusement.

At that moment, Makarov entered the guild, his tone heavy.

"I've just received word that Grimoire Heart broke Jellal out of the magic prison."

Nate was momentarily stunned. Hades didn't go for the key—he broke Jellal out?

Ultear was also puzzled.

"Master Makarov, what would they want with Jellal?"

"We're not sure yet."

Makarov scanned the guild hall, deep in thought.

"For now, we'll leave Grimoire Heart alone. Their actions are unrelated to us."

"However, yesterday, before the Council was attacked, they detected activity from the Oración Seis in the Worth Woodsea..."

Upon hearing this, the guild members couldn't help but draw connections.

Gray was shocked. "Two dark guilds acting on the same day?"

Mirajane nodded. "It's suspicious—it doesn't seem like a coincidence."

Makarov's voice grew solemn. "As for the Oración Seis, the guild alliance discussed it in the regional guild chat last night."

He paused before continuing.

"It's been decided that Fairy Tail will lead the mission to take them down!"

Nate's eyes lit up.

Taking down the Oración Seis?

If he live-streamed that, it would surely attract a massive audience!

Talk about a perfect opportunity falling right into his lap.

"Master, I'll go!" Nate volunteered enthusiastically. "Leave it to me!"

His declaration left everyone, except for Ultear and Meredy, stunned. They stared at Nate in disbelief.

Was the world ending tomorrow?

Nate actually wanted to work!?
