The Devil Slayer & The Steam Prince Volume1

Chapter 1 The Steam Prince Joins The Fairy's

Seth's POV: For my entire life I have lived in the Whitman family estate, once mom died I was being polished by my father but I didn't want to be wealthy and run the family investments and bring others into our fold, I wanted to go out into the world to explore and enjoy life, besides I'm gay I didn't really see much appeal in the opposite gender and there are 3 guys who make me hot between the legs and 1 stole my heart more than the other 2, he is Gray Fullbuster the ice stripper of Fairy Tail.
———————————————————————
I fled the wealthy life after father decided to set up an arranged marriage for me just so I could have a wife produce an heir and continue his work, after a long solo journey around Fiore I reached Magnolia during my time in that estate I learned water magic like Juvia the rain woman, however on my travels I learned to use shadow magic enough to the point where I can hide in my own shadow and sneak up on others and a bit of fire magic for variety, I learned hand to hand and even had a pair of dagger knives in my back pockets just in case, I also while living in that mansion learned how to make healing tonics.
———————————————————————
I still remember the times the staff in the mansion would call me their prince we always shared laughs and smiles I hope they will be ok without me around, I sigh at the train station and then after reminiscing on my past and why I came here I swing on my backpack and walk to the guild of Fairy Tail.
———————————————————————
After reaching the guild I opened one of the doors and walked into the hall, as I do I see Mira walking around so I put down my bags and walk up to her. "Excuse me your Mira correct? My name is Seth and I have come in hopes of joining the guild." I say as I tapped her shoulder. "Yes I am and welcome if you wish to join us please speak with the master who is sitting on the bar, once he gives the ok come find me and I will mark you." Mira smiles as she turns to answer me. I nod and go to the bar to find the master. After finding the master I introduce myself to him and tell him I would like to join the guild, he gave me his approval and so I found Mira who asked me where I wanted my mark and what color I would like, I told her I wanted it in gradient purple lighter at the tip darker at the wings and placed where Erza has her's.
———————————————————————
Soon enough she had me marked and said the only room they had available to guys right now was Loké's old room that was 2 doors down from Gray so I nervously told her that's fine by me. I walked up to the boy's dorm hall and to my new room, I open the door put my backpack on my bed and my luggage by the wardrobe. Before I headed up Mira told me everyone else was at the pool out back, so I then slather on the sunblock and put on my trunks and pair of egg-shaped goggles on my head then I grab my towel and a sun hat just in case and head out to the pool.
———————————————————————
Soon as I'm outside my transitional glasses kick in and darken so I can see where I'm walking. I find an empty lounge chair and so I lay down my towel on it and just relax soaking in the sun ignoring the other members but eventually one of them walked over and was talking to me, I open my eyes and it's the fairy queen Erza. I told her I was a new arrival and I just joined today a moment ago and so I showed her my mark that was still fresh on my skin. "I see well then welcome to the guild I'll have to go out and get cakes later I suppose." she replied as her eyes twinkled as soon as she said the word cake. I asked her if I could get a welcome cake in chocolate instead of vanilla and perhaps blackberries and caramel sauce on top instead of strawberries, she said she would see if the baker was up to it. "I hope we can go on jobs together in future." I said happily as I looked her in the eye and tilted my head while smiling. She replied she would be happy to have me assisting her before she walked back to her chair.
———————————————————————
After a while I started to get very warm I put my glasses down on the side table next to my chair and pulled down my goggles, I then dove into the water and swam around happily, I even went down to the bottom swam up to the surface and dolphin arched back into the pool at times. Once I surfaced to catch my breath I saw Lucy the key keeper who was just sitting up on the edge of the pool with her feet in the water, I was gonna go up to her and say hello but decided against it and just swam more.
———————————————————————
As I get out to go back to my towel lined chair a bright shower of sparkling light comes out next to Lucy and it ends up turning into what seems to be a pink haired house maid. I rush over to my chair trade my goggles for my glasses and it was indeed Virgo. I heard her tell Lucy that the Spirit King and Taurus were both feeling ill, as Lucy was gathering her friends to bring with her I rushed up to my room grabbed my backpack and then ran back and asked if I could come help. "Not to sound rude but who are you." Lucy asked meeting my eyes. I told her my name was Seth and I just joined the guild today and gave her a list of my magic talents.
———————————————————————
"You can make tonics from herbs and other natural ingredients? sure you can come, we are gonna have to get you some clothes for celestial world traveling." the key wielder said. I ask Virgo if she had a dark purple with lighter purple detail version of Natsu's celestial world clothes, she disappeared and soon she came back with the outfit I asked for, Lucy then shut Virgo's gate and opened the gate of the clock. Once everyone was changed the clock man guided us to the celestial world. "The king should be our first priority seeing as he requires the sacrifice of a gold key to summon him to our world, he is more powerful than the zodiac so he is also of the greatest importance." I said with a serious glare and boom just like Erza would.
———————————————————————
Once at the king's chamber I took control of everything. "Wendy keep him stable long enough for me to make the tonic, Juvia fill this flask with water Gray once she's done with that I need you to take it from her and lightly frost the top of the water and then hand it back to me, Lucy once I finish the tonic you give it to him and he has to drink it slowly." Everyone nodded and so while Wendy started us off I looked through my bag for my journal and opened it to the tonic I made in past to give to people who called silver key spirits to their side while on my travels I never made it with frosted water before but hopefully the chill will make it more potent.
———————————————————————
I tossed Juvia a flask and then looked through my bag for my herb pouches and one in particular that I needed for the tonic. Moonroot no, Starleaf no that's not it either, Dryadroot no no no that's not right. "Something wrong Seth? Erza asked as she bent down beside me and looked at me." "Just having trouble finding the right herb pouch I rarely use this particular tonic." I answered while nervously biting my nails. "You can do this I'm sure of it just breathe and focus." Erza said as she patted my shoulder.
———————————————————————
I took a breath closed my eyes for a second and focused and soon enough I remembered the herbs name. "There you are you little pest." I said as I grabbed the bag of Sunrise Blossom. Gray handed me the flask so I crush the Sunrise Blossom into it and then added some pearl berries and then to sweeten it so it wasn't so bitter tasting I added some strawberry oils and some honey, I put a lid on the flask and shook it well and then passed it to Lucy who uncapped it and helped the spirit king drink it slowly.
———————————————————————
"Wendy you can rest now thanks for your help." I said as I put my hand the sky dragons shoulder. "Natsu, Gray, Juvia, I'm gonna need you three with me we are going to take care of Taurus next we can get to the tower of the bull by going through the tower of the lion, That's where you come in Natsu your job is to distract Loké while Juvia, Gray and I go to Taurus's tower." I said to the fire dragon, the stripper, and the rain woman. They all nodded and we took off running, soon enough we got into the tower of the lion and yet I didn't see Loké but we left Natsu there just in case.
———————————————————————
Once at the tower of the bull we had a second flask of the tonic ready to go I just needed to add the sweeteners and then shake it. "Hey, nose ring my name is Seth I'm a new member to Fairy Tail but I came to help you and your king Lucy brought me here you wanna be able to help her rather than stay stuck here all the time right?" I said as I called out to the cow spirit. "Here drink this tonic I made it for his majesty as well and during my travels, I have given it to silver key spirits who it worked very well on drink every drop slowly and you will be better soon." I said as I put a lid on the flask and shook it and then held it up for the spirit to take.
———————————————————————
Taurus took it without much fuss and soon enough he was mooing proudly. After we wrapped things up with Taurus we found Natsu still talking to Loké and Loké said he could hear that Taurus is healthy so it's safe to assume the king is healed as well, he then asked who it was that made the tonic. "That would be the newest member who joined today just a few minutes ago." said Gray as he stepped to the side and put me front and center with Loké, yet I couldn't say anything my legs felt weak my vision was fading away along with my hearing all I could hear was Juvia yelling my name and then the world went black and silent.
———————————————————————
Natsu's POV: The new guy was just put on the spot in front of Loké and collapsed Juvia was shouting his name to see if he just fainted but he wouldn't answer her. As Gray picked the new guy up and put him on his back we all saw a small pool of blood where his head was. Gray carried him down the tower stairs, Juvia following behind with the backpack, I was saying bye to Loké before chasing after them. We soon reached the others and Erza looked at Gray. "Gray why is Seth asleep on your back?" Erza asked. "He isn't sleeping, Seth passed out suddenly when Loké asked us who made the healing tonic for the bull and the king and Gray told him that Seth made it." Juvia answered.
———————————————————————
Gray then laid Seth on the ground, then Juvia put his bag next to him. "Go through the backpack, maybe there is something in it that we can use to help figure out what has happened to him." Erza hollered. I looked and found mostly small bags, and some flasks, but then I saw the book he had with him earlier. "I think I found something Erza, it says in the front index that the final pages of the book he was reading from earlier contain his own personal medical info." I said as I handed her the book.
———————————————————————
"Good work Natsu, now let's see if this can help us." said Erza as she flipped through the back pages of the book. "Pardon me miss but I might be able to help you with your search." said a random voice. Suddenly a hologram of Seth appears on the pages of the book, Erza holds the book out so we can all see better. "How can you help us if you are a hologram of the one down on the floor." I asked bluntly. "Because seeing as he and I are one in the same I am able to give you the info faster than flipping through all the pages, Natsu the Salamander." the hologram spoke with an Erza like glare.
———————————————————————
"First off, who was there to witness it and remembers how he laid before being placed here." the hologram said. "That would be us Juvia said as she and Gray walked forward and linked hands with me, He was about to talk with Loké but then all of a sudden his legs gave out and he landed first on his back and then turned onto his right side curled into a ball." Juvia said as she recounted what happened. "I see so that means it's happened again. he had a breakthrough seizure attack." the hologram stated as it looked at Seth.
———————————————————————
"He needs to go to Magnolia Hospital, he recently had all his medical records transferred there seeing as he was joining the Guild, was there any blood coming out of his head when he hit the ground." the hologram stated. "Yeah, there was a small pool when I went over to pick him up." Gray said plainly. "I see, we need him at that Hospital soon the hologram said, ask for doctor Goodall to see what measures need to be taken." Seth's hologram said before disappearing back into the book. "Lucy, you stay here with Wendy and Carla to make sure the King wakes up Gray, Juvia, Natsu, Happy you're with me, we are taking Seth to Doctor Goodall at Magnolia Hospital." boomed Erza. "Let me aid in guiding you back to your world." said the clock man. Gray placed Seth and his bag inside the clock and then we left for home.
