Fairy Tail: God Slayer - The Path of Life and Death!

Chapter 55

After what happened, Makarov, watching from the side, could not help but nod:

"Impressive ... I was not mistaken, the exam is in his teeth" - of course, such an experienced wizard as he did not even raise an eyebrow from such icy magic. But, admittedly, what Aidan possesses is indeed very ancient and powerful magic. The ability to influence someone else's magic in this way is a very difficult magic.

As for Mira, after all, she only frowned and gritted her teeth and turned away:

- Tts! - Without saying anything else, she found her brother, ripped the first available task from the bulletin board and went on the task.

Sipping his wine, Aidan just grinned.

- What a motivator I am ...

- Do you offend the newcomers? - a voice from the side was heard sharply. Aidan flinched, then turned a disgruntled gaze to one old man.

- Grandpa, one day I'll have enough kondraty, can you stop declaring like that?

- Hmpf! What else, I'm the Master here, what I want is what I do. - Makarov grinned, taking away the mug with wine from the guy.

Aidan glanced at him with displeasure, then went back to reading.

- When is there already an exam?

- Soon ... I'm still thinking who else to take.

- Are we going somewhere?

Makarov thoughtfully scratched his beard:

- Not so soon ... We'll see. I have a spot in mind, there are not as many good candidates as I would like.

During a short conversation, Aidan asked the old man for a couple of tips, after which they talked about the theory of spirit spell magic. And so evening came ...

A long-awaited event happened two weeks later. Finally, the first of the Xids was born. Natsu was happier than ever. Of course, Happy's name stuck right away. Everyone celebrated that day until morning. Aidan was drinking together with Cana, and Wendy continued to doze expectantly at Charlie's egg. Now everyone was waiting for the birth of the second kitten.

It was then that Mira returned to the guild and again decided to challenge Aidan. Only this time she had to face Erza ...

The days passed merrily. Studying, getting drunk and spending it with friends, he did not even notice how a whole month passed. Of course, not a day passed when he did not think about the most important things. Even if Aidan relaxed, he was not going to forget about his goal. He studied and was just waiting for the exam. Realizing that it is precisely the increase in rank that is his chance to find a more serious task and finally go to study in distant lands. A difficult task - more combat experience, more opportunities to use powerful magic and grow above yourself. Aidan had planned to stay longer this time.

So, finally another week passed, the exam was already on the nose. Then Charlie was finally born. Surrounded by Natsu, Lisanna, Kana, Erza and Wendy, a small snow-white cat peeped out of the shell. Even Happy, as soon as he noticed little Charlie, froze and dropped a fish from his mouth. This small cat barely learned to speak, but, already staring at the other cats, Aidan could not help but grin. That's just ...

- Ah! Wend exclaimed in surprise.

Everyone around immediately hit their mouths, Aidan frowned and lowered his head, he also felt something strange:

- Wow ... - not having time to be born, Charlie, without thinking twice, fell to his hand and purred. She completely ignored the people around, but as for the guy ... The kitty looked ingratiatingly into his eyes and innocently clapped her big eyes.

The guy immediately broke into a satisfied smile and, of course, picked up this little snow-white lump in his arms.

Charlie purred quickly and smiled contentedly.

- What is it with her? Natsu was surprised.

- Hee-hee, it looks like she liked her brother! Wendy smiled as she hugged Aidan as well. Charlie didn't seem to like it that much, though. With her little paw, the kitty tried to push the face of the young sorceress away from herself.

- Hey! He's mine too! - Wendy was indignant.

Erza and Cana laughed as they watched this funny sight. Young Happy just sighed and looked at Natsu. The guy laughed and stroked his friend:

- Come to me!

Lisanna also smiled and picked up Happy ahead:

- Today is my turn!

Smacking his lips to the fish, the young cat just glanced at Aidan with displeasure. While Wendy and Charlie were already fighting hard for the guy's arms.

Elfman smiled and watched the happy little sister, Mira just snorted coldly:

- Kindergarten, - turning away, she went to the board with assignments.

Many from the outside watched this touching picture and chuckled. Even Makarov could not be touched by these little cats. However, like Mira, she tried not to show true emotions in front of a couple of her main rivals.

So, the moment of the birth of the first Xids in Fairy Tail has passed. A week later, the exam for the senior wizard will begin. In the meantime, as always, friends had fun and carefree spent these days. That day, Reedus captured everyone in his painting, including two beautiful "dragons" - Happy and Charlie.

About a week later.

- So, listen ... - the familiar voice of the Master carried throughout the guild. He had no effect, especially when everyone continued to laugh and plump. Someone continued to chat lightly, and someone nap with a bottle in their arms ...

- Grr! - Makarov gritted his teeth, sharply increased in size to a giant giant and shouted: - Come on, plug your mittens!

At the same moment, a dead silence reigned. Some even stopped breathing, although some had the courage to continue eating carefree ...

- Natsu! - the look of the Master turned towards the boy.

- AND? Kha ... - the guy coughed and straightened up.

Makarov looked around the entire guild with a serious look:

- So so, - having returned to the previous size, the old man continued more calmly:

- Some of you may already know, some still do not, but it's time for me to voice it. Tomorrow, Fairy Tail's major event will take place - I will select several candidates for the S rank exam. As you remember, none of the candidates passed last year. But, everything is changing, in our ranks there are many newcomers who have every chance, as well as some magicians who still did at least something, except to get drunk - they also have the strength not only to participate in the exam, but also to pass it.

Now, at last, the gazes of all those gathered became serious, especially among some: Laxus, his Thunder God trio, Erza frowned to the side, and Mira listened with curiosity about this event.

- Hey, he never woke up? - Cana's whisper was heard, at the extreme table. On her right hand, Aidan sniffed, hugging a bottle, Charlie warmed up next to his head and also dozed. Wendy sat next to me and listened with curiosity to the serious Master.

"Asleep like a dead man," Gray nodded, looking at Ad. Cana grinned and only shook her head, returning to Makarov's speech:

"... well, some of you have done a pretty good job last week. - glancing at his grandson, Makarov nodded: - I appreciated that too. In general, let's get down to business. - closing his eyes for a moment, Makarov opened them sharply and said seriously:

- Tomorrow, early in the morning, as soon as the sun rises, each of the candidates must arrive at the eastern forest of Magnolia. The first phase of the exam will start there. Then I will explain the rules and everything you need to pass. Now gather your strength, sleep it off ... '' Glancing at Aidan's quietly sniffling, Makarov chuckled:

- Wake up well. Well, after that, go. As for the candidates ... Now I will announce their names ...
