Chapter 12

Chapter 12 Magic of Life.

I wanted to make Thunderstorm, but I got Goat ...

From the harsh everyday life of a novice magician.

Sephiroth. The next day.

We walked back home. Why walk when we had a magokat? Well, he was exactly what he was - the afterburner race finished off and so far not a new engine, eh, Elsa had to steal something newer, but what is it now. Although, in everything bad there is something good - you can walk in a good company, get some fresh air. To tidy up the carcass - I didn't smile at walking with dragon eyes - no, the opinion of those around me did not particularly care, but there was one little problem in these eyes - something like aura vision, and to use it next to a godlike magician, S class and two strong A's were ... bright. In general, we decided not to bother and just go straight to Magnolia, and not along the roads. At the same time, it was possible to discuss some questions and problems, hmmm ... a whole lot of questions have accumulated for me.

- Tell me, Sephiroth ... is what Erigor said is true? - in Lucy's eyes one can read some apprehension and curiosity.

- Yes, it's true, - I calmly answer, literally feel how Elsa glares at me.

-What for? - the voice is somewhat wary.

-Yes! How could you kill hundreds of people !? - Natsu climbed in with his temperament.

- As far as I remember, it is not customary in the guild to ask about the past. - I add more coldness to my voice, taking a look at the dragonsler - I had reasons. However, there is no big secret in this, just a gang of nonentities, proudly calling themselves a dark guild, carved out the village that sheltered me. When I arrived at the place, I was greeted only by corpses lying on the ground and looted houses, and the only survivor had a broken skull and departed to another world barely informing me of what had happened. I found those who did it pretty quickly ... well, and then ... let's just say, the elimination of such people has become a habitual job for me - and I am slowly cleaning the world and earning a living.

- So, everyone you killed ... - Gray began.

- For the most part they were murderers, thieves and rapists, - I finished for the magician, - but let's change the subject - this is not the most pleasant conversation, - the people nodded understandingly.

-How do you feel that the examination showed? - I looked around the interested blonde, worried? Nice ... Just about to answer, Makarov decided to insert his five kopecks.

-He, shpanyo, now we have one more dragonsleer in our guild - and he looked at me like that, as if it was his personal achievement.

- Cool, it turns out that you were raised by a dragon too? What happened to him? Do you know where he is now? Let's brush it off! - it seems that at this moment my eye twitched.

- No, I was raised by ordinary people and I have never seen dragons, - with a titanic effort of will keeping my hand away from my face, I calmly answered, - ask the Master, maybe he will explain better, and I would not refuse to listen, otherwise yesterday he was very busy, noting ... conferring with colleagues on this issue, - the old man smoothed his mustache importantly.

- Well, I have one theory. Most likely, you are from the second generation of dragonslers. This could explain the presence of predisposition and lack of initiation - there was simply no dragon-mentor.

-Hmm, so one of the parents or both?

The grandfather nodded.

-Do not you know? - Natsu, his tact can rival the gallantry of a company of Landsknechts in a captured castle ...

-I am an orphan, I have never seen my parents, all that I have from them is a sword, but a vague vague image, - hmm, and again I did not lie in anything, in fact, the past 'I' is the parent of 'me' the present and indeed, nothing but a vague image and a sword I got (eh, where are my players now ...)

The rest listened to our dialogue with such concentrated faces, as if we were discussing where we hid our stash and how to get there (Natsu became an exception - after it turned out that I had no idea about dragons and did not intend to swing with him, the rest of the conversation was lost for him any value, including the answer to the question he asked). In this vein, several hours passed until our guide cat stopped with a thoughtful look at the edge of the rift ...

- That is, how is it that you do not know where to go? - Lucy was ready to strangle the cat, who led the whole group somewhere clearly in the wrong place.

-Do you think I was wrong once, with whom does it not happen? Shit! This is the first time! - offended the cat.

-All the same we got lost, cats with topographic cretinism, this is necessary! - the girl continued to rage.

- Eat hunting ... - Natsu ...

- Shut up, and I'm sick without you! - Gray ...

- Food ... - Master ...

Elsa tried to reason with the guildmates with a kind word, but the hungry grumble betrayed her with her head, however, not a single muscle flinched on her face (but in emotions she flashed with embarrassment, dear). Then the cat saw a flying fish in the sky, immediately an offer was made to catch himself lunch, and more, more, and the magicians rushed in a united crowd towards the cliff, quickly hiding behind a rocky ledge. I wonder where they will get the means of fishing? Or will they just send a cat 'for the game'?

Hmmm, okay, it seems it's time to take a break. Okay, at the same time, I'll figure out how to cook something. I summon a table from my spatial pocket, a couple of benches that I did not manage to throw off at home, a kettle, a couple of water skins, as well as slightly jerky meat, cereals and a set of spices. To organize a kind of soldier's porridge is a matter of ten minutes, and little effort is required. Meanwhile, the people, led by the kote, reached the place, at least judging by the conversations - the acoustics in the gorge were wonderful (hmmm, fishing from a cliff, fishing rods without bait, and even a flying fish - almost went crazy, watching behind this picture, I wonder how they miraculously caught something in the anime?). While the main dish was on fire (a tablet of dry alcohol is the whole trick, it's a pity that until I can fry the food just by heating the dishes with an infusion of Fiery Mana, something like this Makarych burned the complaints of the council at the very beginning of our acquaintance with him), I placed plates and even got a couple of cakes from his stocks, grabbed from the train especially for the girls. Although I was in no hurry to put them on the table - something strongly recommended that I keep such valuable items with me and use them only at the right time. Hmmm, but the fishermen never caught anything, look what sad faces.

Lucy Heartfilia. A very hungry Lucy Heartfilia.

Damn shawarma, it's a pity they didn't eat it that time. At the thought of food, the stomach croaked demandingly, hinting that he would not have refused the shawarma either, but alas - thanks to the cat's navigational abilities, they got lost very, very thoroughly. The girl looked sadly at the fish flying by the fishing rod, something suggested that it would be impossible to get food in this way. To distract herself from thinking about food, Lucy decided to switch to something else, for example, to the story of Sephiroth. The guy opened in a new, rather gloomy way ... but one could understand him - the death of loved ones is not the most pleasant experience. The mother's grave rose before my eyes. It seems that she chose a bad option to distract attention from food ... Then the dragonseer shifted his nose.

-Eedaaa ...

-Yes zadolbal already, everyone wants to eat, do not remind, - Gray snapped irritably.

-Go through the forest, little ice, I can smell food!

-Where?! - the girls burst out in chorus, and the Master also cheered up.

-There! - Natsu pointed in the direction the team had come from.

-By the way, where is Sephiroth? - Elsa suddenly drew attention to the absence of a freshly baked dragonsleer.

-What's the difference, we'll find him after we eat!

-Aggas! - and the magicians (and the cat) went to the intoxicating aroma of food, accompanied by the accompaniment of their own stomachs.

When they, disappointed in 'fishing', tired and hungry, went out to a small area, located literally a hundred meters from the place where they were trying to catch lunch ... the girl could not believe her eyes. On the vacant lot there was a quite solid table with benches, dishes and a pot were already on the table, exuding an aroma, from which the whole honest company croaked in sync. And, as the crown of absurdity - something quietly humming under his breath Sephiroth, with a contented look stirring the designated pot.

-Oh, you are just in time, I was about to go to call you.

-Where from ?! - only Lucy could be surprised.

-Well, I studied Rearmament, this magic creates a spatial pocket from which you can summon various weapons and equipment, but why not use it for something else? So I carry a small supply of food and water just in case. Well, okay, I can tell you about this and then, if you want, but now I propose to start tra ... oh tyzh, infection! Natsu, you were not taught that it would be nice to take care of the girls first, and then fill your stomach?

While Sephiroth was explaining himself, the pink-haired dragonsleer had already reached the pot and began to rapidly destroy the contents. However, the Master quickly put things in order by usurping the bowler hat for himself. Elsa and Gray could not forgive this and sat on the old man, trying to get hold of the coveted source of food. Lucy only sighed sadly - it was useless for her to compete with these bison

- Sandwiches? - the voice of a silver-haired man who sat next to her brought her out of her sad-meditative state.

-Yes, thanks, - the girl eagerly grabbed the offered treat. For a while, the silence was broken only by satisfied puffing and chomping (the last belonged to Natsu), finally, after satisfying the first hunger, Lucy turned to the magician, who was still sitting next to her, thinking about something.

-Sorry ...

-For what?

- Well ... that I raised that topic, and even in front of everyone ... - the girl was embarrassed.

- It's okay, not you, so someone else would have raised it. After all, a lot of time has passed since then.

-Are you angry at me?

-No, why would? - the guy smiled, - oh, it seems they finally shared the bowler hat, shall we go? Sephiroth stood up and held out his hand, offering his help.

- Come on, - slightly embarrassed, Lucy accepted the support and followed the guy, rushed to the table.

Sephiroth.

They are strange creatures after all - women. It's difficult with them, but without them - in general, the khan, so now, it would seem, the girl asked a question, well, she received an answer, why be embarrassed and ashamed, no, if she asked something really personal, that's still understandable, but right? Eh, okay, it's better not to rack your brains over this - your brains will be more whole.

The fairy magicians pleasantly surprised me, leaving Lucy and me with some porridge and even thanked for the treat (although Natsu had to explain why and whom to thank with a fist in a plate glove, but this is a true word, sheer trifles). I decided to test my theory about the difficult relationship between Elsa and cakes. The theory did not lie - where Elsa is, the cakes end very quickly, who would have guessed that in fact the harsh warrior is a terrible sweet tooth. In any case, I caught the Valkyrie's grateful look on myself ... and it seems ... hmm, isn't it jealousy in Lucy's emotions? However, I also shared the cake with her, after which the girl became noticeably kinder, however, now the Master looked at me somehow askance, and should I offer him sweets? Quickly hiding the dishes and furniture back in my pocket, I announced my readiness to move on.

Elsa 'Titania' Scarlett.

The warrior brought up the solemn procession of the group of fairies along the gorge, periodically looking over the back of the guy in front. In just a couple of days, he managed to open up from different sides. Indifferent to his own life, calculating and practical is a very dangerous combination, such people achieve a lot, a lot, but the price they are willing to pay is terrifying. Elsa remembered her first friend, one might say her brother - blue hair, a strange pattern on half of her face and madness and cruelty that had settled in her eyes. Yes ... such people are capable of much, but is Sephiroth like that? The girl recalled how he, spitting on the authorities, teased Master Bob and could not hold back a slight smile, and he seemed to find a common language with the guys (although Natsu clearly dislikes). In the end, he experienced a lot in life, in some way their stories are even similar, like magic, maybe everything is not so bad? Look, and how worries about the new girl, I have saved separately sandwiches for her, while the others fought for porridge. Hmm, with porridge it really turned out somehow uncomfortable, but I really wanted to eat. Speaking of food, using a spatial pocket as a food storage is very ... unusual, interesting, but what else does he put there and how much space he has in stock, maybe it's worth actually completing a couple of missions together, maybe even without a cart. Oh yeah, and don't forget to ask if he still has these amazing cakes?

The girl's reflections were interrupted by a town that appeared around the next turn. A completely empty town. In the guys, research interest immediately woke up, even Sephiroth looked unnaturally excited for him, although maybe this is normal? Be that as it may, but the Master suggested scouting the situation and decided to start from the city square, the girl stayed with him, playing the role of the guild leader's bodyguard, well, just in case, so that the old man with an awl below his back would not get anywhere, Lucy also decided to be nearby, and the guys went deeper into town ...

Sephiroth.

All the way, I felt the pensive gaze of our fairy queen on my modest person. Hmmm, I would give a lot to understand what the girl is thinking about now, it seems that I didn't do anything reprehensible in her relation (although I wanted to), and I've justified the past, but you never know ... However, the main thing is to interest, and there we will already see how one of my friends from Odessa used to say. With 'interest', it seems, everything went as it should, now, I would turn attention in the right direction ... for a moment I felt a little ashamed - I am trying to win the heart of the Valkyrie, insolently using the knowledge of her character and information on cockroaches in my head .. But don't regular guys try to please a girl by trying to find keys for her by trial and error? My advantage was only in the fact that I knew for sure about some rakes that would not be worth stepping on. Hmm, what do I feel for Elsa myself? Not a character, but a living person? I listen to myself ... sympathy, some share of no, not pity, but something similar ... understanding and empathy? It looks like, but can you say that I'm in love with her? I'm not sure, and falling in love at first sight is still a task, not everyone succeeds, but in her presence my mood is definitely higher than in her absence, I just like being in her company. Hmmm, if things go on like this, then this is what can be called love, okay, time will tell, the main thing is to find a way so that all three of my future girls (I really hope so) do not kill each other, or, more worse, united, they did not kill me (the task, of course, is not an easy one, but I believe in them). In such reflections, I got to the deserted city, my memory immediately suggested the corresponding episode of the anime. The dark guild, and even decided to indulge in the magic of Life, for this alone they would have been given a death sentence, and if you think about it, the monsters were clearly not raised for entertainment, which means that they tried to kill someone with their help, or get to something well guarded. As far as I remember, this area, the Spider Lair, is the battlefield of some ancient magical war, and sometimes very interesting things can come across on the battlefield (if some clever guy hasn't already pocketed them for himself, of course), perhaps it's worth asking a little dark what exactly they wanted to achieve, if, of course, they had not yet been digested by the monsters who ate the poor fellows, nevertheless, unlike the canon, we spent a little more time - while having lunch, while we slightly recovered after eating ... However, bandits, called the dark ones, is a minor problem, much more I was attracted by the opportunity to rummage through the libraries of local craftsmen - as far as I remember, the basis of the rune circle was inscribed on the ground, which means we are dealing with a ritual, and the ritual without the necessary calculations will only be carried out by a suicide, well .. . except that except for the most simple and by default safe, such as defining schools (although there would be a desire, and you can manage to make a big bomb out of it). Then it was a matter of technique - to be surprised at the absence of people, to suggest some powerful witchcraft here and please - the Master and the girls immediately went into research, and the guys ... the guys decided to see what lies in this city, I remember, in the canon they were looking for food, now they were just interested and, of course, Natsu and Gray could not tolerate the presence of each other in the line of sight for a long time, as a result, it was decided to disperse for reconnaissance. That's how I ended up all alone, which could not but rejoice. So, now the main question of all assassins and other dark personalities remains - respected, but how to get to the library? (Inspired by the 'operation Y' and long experience in DND for the murderer * author's note) Unfortunately, crowds of people who want to help me with increasing education are -that was not to be seen, I had to act in the old proven way - the 'at random' called. Throwing away all the obviously impossible places, such as establishments with a sign in the form of a mug or a shoe, I began to look for a temple of knowledge, ideally, instead of a library, it would be better to delve into the house of the main magician, but where he is located and what it looks like, I had no idea - magicians the creatures are strange, so the residence of the local head could look like the most luxurious house in the city, and absolutely not attract attention at all, with the library it was simpler. And now, after half an hour of searching, my ordeals bore fruit - I found the library. And, what is most offensive, almost right next to the central square, where the Master and the girls remained. Deciding to play it safe, I 'turned on' the dragon's eyes, although they immediately had to be cut out with abuse - the whole city simply shone, representing, in fact, a giant one-piece magical structure, the only joy was that now all this muck was asleep, and also that, that with the current flow of magic, if there was any protection on the library, now it definitely was not, however, I suspect that the books there are now 'alive', but this is nothing, in extreme cases, I'll kill them carefully, well, or just stun and tie. (You can also stroke the spine, they say it helps. ^ _ ^)

In the library, I was lucky the second time - it seems that the locals were working on the ritual right here - at least a few overturned tables. Shattered chairs and traces of a struggle indicated where the unlucky spellcasters were when something went wrong. Accordingly, there were also books I needed so much, only ... there was one problem ...

Ten minutes later.

- Stop, you bastard, you won't leave anyway! - the disgusting booklet, nevertheless, very quickly washed away from me through the air, waving the binding and spitting out pages surprisingly dense and sharp - the city slowly began to wake up, I don't know if my attempt to get to the books was the reason, or what fakes they learned, and maybe something third, but the fact remained - objects slowly began to come to life. So far, the smallest ones, but I think it will take another five or ten minutes and the houses and towers of the city will come into play - there, already the local wardrobes are somehow unkindly glancing at me (which is still a sight, I will report to you).

-Well, that's it, I asked for it myself, - I call from my pocket several throwing knives - that's what came in handy that box of scrap metal that I dragged to expand my pocket and practice in mass summoning. The throw - there is a hit - the book pinned to the wall frayed a little more, but quickly calmed down - during the hunt I perked up to hit the points with the greatest amount of Life mana, nevertheless, Zeref was very, very far from the local - their creations did not differ in strength, neither vitality, nor for simple weapons and weak spells were quite vulnerable, the main thing is to get to the right point, otherwise you would have to chop the creature into cabbage, which ultimately made it useless in terms of its initial use - it was not possible to restore the text. For the same reasons, they had to abandon the use of fire. It was also not the time or place to practice absorbing the magic of Life, or rather its energy, and jumping and trying to catch a flying book with your mouth ... nooo, I'll leave such fun for Natsu, since he has experience - how he deftly caught those set on fire Master Complaints Council.

Another book went into my pocket, that's all, if there is anything else left, I still won't have time to get it - the walls began to move painfully suspiciously. I think it is better to admire the view of the 'reviving' city from the outside than, so to speak, from the inside, it's worth hurrying.

But the whole square was already shaking in the street, and the fakes stood still and shouted my name, damn it, were they waiting for me? Somehow ... irrational, but damn it, nice. Okay, don't linger here.

- I'm going! - thanks, cap, without you I would not understand, mentally I answer the Master. And we gave it a go, we had to pick up Lucy in our arms and add more - the girl was clearly not very fond of marathon races in the past, and this time the odds were clearly less than in the canon (yep, I'm almost ashamed of that).

And so we stand on a rock and admire the tangle of wriggling heads and tentacles.

- Well, and an abomination, - Gray winced.

-Um, Sephiroth? - in the voice of the blonde, as well as in her emotions, embarrassment skips through, but Elsa has something strange going on - I can't make out - it's too fast and difficult.

-M?

- I can already be lowered to the ground ... probably - some annoyance?

-Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, you are so graceful that I did not notice the weight, so I was staring at these cute monsters, - I put the girl on a hard surface, continuing to bathe in her embarrassment, after all, there is something of drug addiction in empathy, although not so pronounced, but the feeling of certain emotions of the interlocutor is simply indescribable pleasure, especially if it is the embarrassment or pleasure of a pretty girl directed at you ... So, well, what about the Master again looking at me? Hmmm, in the mental plane, just a stupid one, although it would be naive of me to think that I could read a God-equal magician, and even with such experience, rather he is reading me now ... and sees my buzz from the presence of Lucy, yes interested glances in the direction of Elsa ... oops ... well, exactly, look how he grinned ... although, what am I talking about, someone at one time dug secret passages to the female dorm of fairies and even equipped observation points in the most interesting places, I think I'm starting to guess who it was ...

-Cute? - Lucy does not seem to share my views.

-Well, yes, but what else to call the handsome ones who ate the dark guild in full force?

- What are you talking about, what other guild? Natsu was surprised.

"He's right, in one of the houses I found magic weapons and objects that were clearly not intended for good deeds," Elsa said.

-What are we going to do? Gray wondered.

- Let's brush them off? - I think it's not worth explaining who suggested it ...

The master obviously wanted to give the go-ahead, but I was a little ahead of him. It's time to start carefully adjusting the dragonsleer's brains.

-What for?

-In terms of? - did not understand the pink-haired.

- These guys will not be able to get out of the gorge, therefore they are not able to harm the civilian population, to save the possibly not yet digested dark ones? Well, you save them, and then what? Creation of monsters using the magic of life, and, clearly with criminal intentions, is twenty years in a quarry, do you think that they raised these cuties to arrange a zoo and ride on their backs the kids from the neighboring city? - so what did we get in the end? The master looks at me with an appraising look, clearly trying to understand my motives and reasons, Elsa ... clearly thought, though it is not clear about what, whether I'm not good, or about the fact that a preventive cuff, albeit in her performance (this is with a plate glove), is not always able to direct an individual on the right path, and perhaps more serious measures are required in some places? Although I don't think that at one point, and without very cruel examples, she will think about it, but nothing, I have time. Gray, here he definitely agrees with me, after all, magic leaves its mark on the magician, and the ice magician, by definition, must be cold and reasonable (sometimes he also has jumps, but this can be attributed to incomplete training and bad influence, he- heh). Lucy - she simply cannot imagine the whole picture - is too kind and was brought up, although not in greenhouse conditions, but close to them. Natsu ... remained Natsu, he was not much worried about the dark and their problems, but once again he was always ready to scratch his fists, in fact, which was expected. Well, okay, the water wears away the stone, sooner or later, I'll make my way to his brain ... I hope. In the meantime, the fire magician with a wild cry and hooting went into a frontal attack. Willy-nilly, I had to support him - only Makarych and Lucy were left on the hill, one was screaming something encouraging, and the second just took out one of her keys and a real minotaur with a hefty ax went into battle for her, a funny guy, especially his exaggerated - delighted admiration for the girl's figurine. Out of the corner of my eye, I notice who is fighting how - Natsu simply and without fuss knocks the monsters with fiery fists, sometimes, for the sake of variety, spits fire, but not very far, so, ten to twenty meters. Gray acts in a similar way, the only thing is, we change fire to ice, but Elsa ... the Valkyrie has dispersed to the fullest, this is in a fight with people she may be holding back, but now ... what can I say, in terms of using rearmament, I concede she wasn't even on her head - the speed with which she changed weapons and armor was simply prohibitive - a split second, and instead of a regular sword she had a pair of cleavers in her hands, which would have made Ichigo nervously smoke on the sidelines, and I'm generally silent about changing armor , no apron on an almost naked body was shown (which is a pity), but the famous 'demonic' armor with bat wings behind his back was impressive - the armor clearly increased the speed and strength of the owner, I can not say anything about the protective characteristics - neither never hit, but I think everything is in order there. But the very use of a weapon by a warrior disappointed me a little - a solid average peasant, or maybe a little lower (although, perhaps, things are better with other types of things, but the fact that the girl is not a Master is already obvious), the speed also did not please - about like me, before getting the powers of a dragonsleer, maybe a little higher, no, this is certainly very decent, but I expected more from S rank, although the acceleration due to changing equipment and 'shooting' a new one from a spatial pocket convinced that in her direction, the girl really at a height and I can learn a lot from her.

Well, okay, while the rest of the fakes were engaged in the fight against the consequences, I decided to tackle the cause, after all, should my studies on theory and rituals be useful? Drawing up a seal the size of a city, albeit a small one, is clearly not my level, but, as they say, breaking is not building, especially considering that the magic of Life is used here, well, let's do the favorite thing of all 'Fairies' - total destruction. After all, what can unbalance the system based on the magic of Life? Of course, the magic of Death, and a blow with raw force can even be done by such a dropout like me. Be that as it may, I got to the center of the circle without incident (a couple of chopped octopuses does not count) - it is there that the greatest concentration of magic is and it is there that I can crank out my simple plan. So, I'm in the center, my feet touch the circle, let's get started. I kneel down, touching the circle with my hands and begin to pour demonic energy into the rune circle. As expected, the system immediately went to hell, only I did not take into account a couple of small nuances, for example, that I would find myself in the epicenter of a magical anomaly, mixed with my two 'elements', and my talents as a dragonslayer. I was captured by a stream of pouring Power, out of the corner of my eye I notice how opponents crumble to dust, giving me all their life energy, because the monsters are directly tied to a circle, and the circle has now become one big pump. The absorption of the elements was activated on its own, literally with the very next breath, it was almost not necessary to maintain the ability - the body, welded with magic, did everything perfectly, almost without requiring control. Here it is, the real advantage of the dragonsler - for them magic is as natural as breathing and what many comprehend for years, dragon slayers can intuitively understand in seconds, for example, like Natsu in that fight with Erigor, when he changed the properties of his flame (by the way , you need to arrange for him the awakening of this talent - without him it will be much more difficult, and I would not refuse such a thing), or as soon as I realized - it is not necessary to swallow Fire or gnaw Life with your teeth, it is enough just to take the element into yourself , touch it and feel its part, then the magic itself will help to do everything as it should. But then it became much harder to think coherently - I took in too much magic and the roof began to blow away, again there was a desire to have fun, to do something, to run somewhere. The body went crazy, throwing horse doses of hormones into the blood, there was a feeling that you just have to wish, and you can grind all these mountains and half of Fiore into powder. We urgently need to get rid of the surplus before the business is broken, but how? The smart body did everything by itself, repeating the technique that Natsu had spied on, perhaps adapting it for itself. The lips said by themselves ...

-Rear of the Demon Dragon, - giving the magic the command to descend, the only thing I thought was enough for me was to turn in the opposite direction to the one where mine were ... after all, perhaps that are already friends, although we have known each other not for very long , but I feel that without them I will be sad and unpleasant, and to hell with thoughts, it's time to destroy, giggle!

A stream of frenzied magic burst from his throat, an eerie mixture of Flame, Darkness and Death, sweeping away the nearby rock and what lay behind it. It cleared up a little in my head and I realized that I was in the center of a wasteland littered with ashes, here and there undigested dark ones were swarming, slowly coming to their senses, to the side where I exhaled there was nothing ... that is, nothing at all - about seven hundred meters simply gone into nowhere granite rock in a corridor with a diameter of fifteen meters (and this is if you do not take into account another four hundred meters, that the charge flew through the open air from the center of the town to the rock).

On the other side there were fakes and quietly retreating from the shock. The master picked up his jaw (at last he was able to read it, although why read emotions, when everything is already written on her face - a complete out), Elsa was drawn by something like respect, but again, too much was mixed up, I really don't understand Lucy was in a culture shock, like her spirit, Gray pretended that he sees this every Tuesday and there was nothing fundamentally new this time, although emotions betrayed him headlong. Well, and Natsu, h-yes, now he will definitely not leave me alone until he persuades me to 'brush off', there was no sadness ...

Subsequent events were not much different from the canon ones - the interrogation of the dark (the gentlemen wanted to set their pets on neighboring cities, and while the guards, magicians and residents are distracted by the problems of their own survival, quickly pick up their affairs, such as thefts, espionage and murders), as the plans of the bandits were listed , the faces of the Tail mages were getting gloomier, then, unanimously, it was decided to escort the bandits to the nearest city (the same long-suffering Onibas) and hand them over to the authorities, and there was no question of any 'swear that you won't do this again', yes What can I say, even a rather kind Natsu (no matter how barbaric he behaves, he is still a very kind soul) wondered, and what are all those gangsters that he beat, but did not put behind bars, do? Although, perhaps he was just pondering what he would order from Mira upon his return ... As for the case with my participation ... by an unwritten agreement, we avoided this topic, in the end, I did not show anything beyond the dragonsler, but the power that was collected by absorbing life ... was impressive.

In Onibas, we quickly handed over criminal elements from hand to hand and quickly went on, what if the grateful townspeople want to express their respect to the magicians that they rebuilt their station and town square in this way? But, losing a small part of the architectural ensemble of the city is still better than being a snack to a hungry demon, only the Council may not agree with this, so why not read me a couple of books on local law and laws just in case? Of course, I'm not enough for everything, but to look at the options for a specific situation is quite, especially if you ask Levy to help. Speaking of Levi, you will need to look for such glasses in Magnolia, as well as an artifact magician, in order to remove the restrictions on the reading speed.
