<h4>Chapter 26: Chapter 26: Luby</h4>


    [Results Calction in Progress...]


    [New Feature Released: "Online Commissioning."]


    [Rating: Good.]


    After a brief wait, the system gave a "Good" rating. Nate was quite satisfied with this oue. For a feature developed in just two or three days, receiving more than a basic rating was alreadymendable.


    He nced at the rewards.


    [Bonus Reward: Flight Technique.]


    [Detected that this is not the Dragon Ball world, converting reward...]


    [Flight Technique → Magic: Flight Technique.]


    In an instant, Nate once again experienced the sensation of magic knowledge flowing into his mind. The mysteries of the new flight magic were quickly mastered.


    This magic allowed the caster to fly freely through the sky.


    "Impressive magic!" Nate thought as he opened his eyes. With just a thought, his body began to float gently. The apartment was small, so he didn''t fly too high—just about a meter off the ground to test his movements.


    The feeling he got from this magic was simple: freedom!


    When the magic was active, he barely felt the pull of gravity and could move in any direction at will. Moreover, the magic''s energy consumption was very reasonable. Flying at low speed consumed almost no magic power,parable to the inherent magic of his Six Eyes. However, once he switched to high-speed flight, the magic consumption increased significantly.


    "Overall, a pretty useful magic."


    "If I could have flown during the spar with Erza, winning would have been much easier."


    Satisfied, Natended back on the floor. He then turned his attention to the primary reward: 10,000 magic rings.


    Distributing so many rings wouldn''t be easy. While Juvia hadn''t exhausted her supply yet, she wouldn''t be able to handle such arge quantity alone.


    "I need a new n."


    "Should I cooperate with the Magic Council? Or perhaps contact Lucy''s father? Or maybe I should just wait for others toe to me? Now that the inte is gaining momentum, it''s only a matter of time before people start seeking me out."


    Nate thought it over but didn''t rush to a decision. The best option, in his mind, would be to distribute the rings through the inte, allowing current users to exchange points for them. This would also enable arge-scale points recovery, creating a points shortage that would drive users to find ways to earn more points.


    In doing so, he could distribute the rings while simultaneously promoting the prosperity of the inte.


    Unfortunately, implementing this n would be a bit tricky right now. What, should peoplee to Fairy Tail to pick up their rings?


    "If only I could learn teleportation magic, that would solve everything."


    Nate shook his head, realizing it wasn''t urgent at the moment.


    ...


    Leaving his apartment, Nate headed to the guild. After two days away, he found himself missing the meals made by the waitress.


    Upon entering the guild hall, Nate noticed that everyone was talking about the new feature.


    "So we can now ept missions through the inte?"


    "Seems like it. You don''t even need to be at the guild."


    "That''s super convenient!"


    "Nate! You''re here!" someone called out, and suddenly, all eyes in the hall turned to him.


    "Morning, everyone."


    Nate smiled and greeted them.


    "Two days without a word from you, and it turns out you were busy developing new features!"


    "Nice work, Nate!"


    "Nate, about the new feature..."


    Nate waved his hand and interrupted, "I know what you''re going to ask, and I also know you''re in a hurry, but rx."


    With that, he headed over to the bar.


    The waitress, Mira, smiled as she poured him a low-alcohol drink. "Nate, I checked out the newmission section, but there aren''t any missions listed yet. You mentioned you''d need my help with that?"


    "It''s exactly what you think," Nate nodded. "Mira, I need you to sync the guild''s mission board with the onlinemission listings. Will that be a hassle for you?"


    "This is part of my job anyway. If anything, your new feature makes things easier for me," Mira said, shaking her head gently. "However, I''ll need to report this to the guild master first. We''ll need his approval."


    "Where is the master?"


    Now that Nate thought about it, he hadn''t seen Makarov in a few days, ever since the old man had taken ten rings from him.


    "He''s attending a routine meeting," Mira exined. "Don''t worry, I''ll exin everything to him. I''m sure he''ll be thrilled about such a convenient feature."


    "Thanks for taking care of that." Nate took a sip of his drink before standing up. "Erza mentioned she wanted to see me about something. I''ll go check in with her."


    Leaving the bar, Nate headed to the infirmary.


    In the Online Commissioning section, Nate had created sub-forums for different guilds. Each sub-forum would require someone to uploadmission listings to the inte. Naturally, Mira would handle it for Fairy Tail. As for other guilds... well, that wasn''t Nate''s problem for now.


    ...


    In the infirmary, Erza was still lying on the bed. She had improved since two days ago when only her left hand was usable, and she could now walk, though full recovery would take a few more days.


    After knocking and waiting for a moment, Nate stepped inside.


    "Erza, you said you had something important to discuss?"


    "It''s very important!" Erza''s expression was serious. "During myst mission, I encountered members of the Dark Guild Eisenwald."


    She quickly exined the situation. About four or five days ago, while at a tavern in a small town, she overheard members of Eisenwald plotting something sinister. However, she had been too focused onpleting her mission at the time to capture them.


    "I nned to deal with it after finishing my mission, but in my current state, I can''t do anything."


    Erza sighed heavily.


    Nate felt a sinking feeling in his stomach—he had a bad premonition.


    Eisenwald... He knew what they were up to. In fact, he knew very well what they were nning.


    Sure enough, in the next moment, Erza made a sincere request, her face full of determination.


    "I overheard them mention something about ''Luby.'' Nate, I need your help investigating it!"


    "As members of a legal guild, we cannot ignore the activities of dark guilds. No one knows what kind of evil they might unleash or how much damage they could cause!"


    To be honest, Nate thought, their destruction might not even be as bad as some of the chaos Natsu could cause...


    Suppressing a grin, Nate replied, "Luby? Erza, if it''s just an investigation, why not ask the inte? You know, the inte is pretty magical."
