Fairy Tail: Starting with Fairy Queen Erza

Page 59

"President, it's not that we lack energy, but the training Ian put us through during the days you were gone has just made us lose our spirits."

Marcao, hunched over and looking like he had a sore back, leaned close to Makarov and couldn't help but complain.

"Huh? Ian gave you guys special training?"

Makarov paused for a moment, then looked at Marcao and asked.

"Yes!"

"Didn't the guild's 24-hour endurance race end when you left?"

"Ian subjected us mages, who failed to retrieve the wyvern's scales within 24 hours, to brutal special training..."

"Stop talking, my back and muscles are aching terribly."

"Although, my magic power has indeed increased quite a bit, that's all."

As Marcao spoke, he lightly snapped his fingers...

In an instant, purple flames burst into flames around Macao, the flames resembling nimble little snakes that changed shape under Macao's control.

"Speaking of which..."

"Ian even recommended that I learn some fire-making magic."

"I have to get going now..."

"A month later, Ian will also test us mages who have participated in the special training. Those who fail will have to undergo that deadly magic development again."

Macao said...

He hunched over and walked straight toward the Fairy Tail guild library.

Unlike later years, when Natsu burned the Fairy Tail guild library to the ground, it still contains all sorts of regular magic books.

At the entrance of the Fairy Tail guild library, Wakaba was puffing on his cigarette. In addition to recommending that Macao learn Flame Shape Magic, which is his unique fire magic, Ian also recommended that Wakaba learn Mist Shape Magic.

As for Ian's reasons for promoting shape-shifting magic?!

It's purely because of shape magic, which belongs to the regular magic system in Ishgard!

In other words, it is slightly above the standard level of mass-produced goods.

Furthermore, the magic of shaping is easy to learn and has sufficient power.

Of course, not many people can master the art of shaping magic to a high level.

Having a master to guide you will accelerate the training progress of a sculpting mage.

Of course, this is not something that the mages of the Fairy Tail guild need to worry about...

After all, their guild currently boasts a mage who is arguably the strongest in the Ishgar continent, holding the title of 'Holy Ten'.

Yes, it's Uruguay.

With Uru's expertise in shape-making magic...

Spending some time each day giving guidance to other members of the guild is enough to help these beginners improve their skills quickly.

the other side.

In addition to giving some simple guidance to everyone in the guild, Ian also specially set up an intensive class.

The so-called elite class refers to the S-rank mage candidates within the guild.

This includes four S-class mage candidates: Laxus, Erza, Mirajane, and Ultear.

And Natsu, Gray, Lyon, and Cana are the four candidates among the candidates...

Finally, there are Elfman and Lisana, two candidates with an almost endless pool of candidates.

Yes, as long as they are willing to work hard in their training, one day the opportunity to pass the guild's S-rank mage assessment will fall to them.

In general, we must believe in ourselves.

"You all better train hard!"

"Those who fail in their cultivation will continue to be punished."

Ian urged the guild's candidates to train hard and warned them.

"I'm afraid Ian, your punishment won't satisfy me."

Laxus looked at Ian with a provocative expression.

"Then let's give it a try! Laxus..."

"Don't worry, my punishment will always satisfy you."

Ian glanced at Laxus and then laughed.

He has already begun updating and modifying the magic development device.

One day it will reach a point where even S-rank mages can use it.

"That's why I had to come too..."

"Training with these monsters?"

Cana was listless. She had realized her own strength; she was not on the same level as Laxus and the others.

"Kana, believe in yourself."

"You're a monster too."

"After all, you are the 'strongest' child."

Ian looked at the listless Kana, his eyes narrowing slightly, and said something with a double meaning.

"The strongest child?"

Kana understood Ian's meaning almost instantly. She looked at Ian, whose eyes widened in shock, and asked, "You figured it out?"

"Yes! After all, the nature of your magic is very similar."

"That guy was just too careless, that's why he didn't notice..."

"Well, although I'm not qualified, I still beg you to forgive him!"

Ian replied with a smile.

Putting myself in Kana's shoes, if Ian were in Kana's shoes, putting aside the question of forgiveness, he would definitely slap that old bastard Gildarts' face...

"Suck……"

"I never blamed him..."

"Anyway, I will try my best."

"Until the day comes when I truly deserve the title of 'the strongest' child."

Kana felt a slight sting in her nose.

Finally, someone discovered her secret...

Although it wasn't that person, it seemed to lighten the burden in her heart a bit.

"Hey! Kana, Ian actually called you the strongest kid? I can't pretend I didn't hear that!"

"I think the weather is nice today..."

"Perfect! Let's have a practice match and see who truly deserves the title of strongest!"

Just then, the jerk Laxus appeared beside Cana. He acted like a familiar friend, putting his arm around Cana's shoulder, crackling with electricity as he spoke with a forced smile.

"Forehead……"

Upon hearing this, Kana's body stiffened instantly.

"Kana, although we usually get along very well."

"But I can't pretend I didn't hear what you just said..."

"Just as Laxus said, let's settle this once and for all!"

"I'm determined to be the strongest."

As Erza spoke, she had already drawn the knight's sword from her waist.

"Kana, don't hesitate, just accept it!"

Mirajane has already received a portion of Deliora's Soul.

"Kana, I never knew you were hiding this so well?!"

"He was actually called the strongest by Ian..."

"Hurry up, let's settle this! I'm fired up..."
