Chapter 36

After the guy answered about his magic, Makarov frowned slightly, but after that he nodded:

- This is not so important ... You were able to heal the impossible, albeit so, maybe some people should not know about such magic, - the old man smiled a little and became serious again:

- But, I'm not here for this guy. I want to know where you are from and what your story is.

- Do you want or insist? Aidan said with a grin.

- I want and insist at the same time. You are free to hide everything, it is true, I will not put pressure on you and force you to tell something. But, I remember what you said when you got the guild mark. If so, and you are going to become not just a Fairy Tail mage, but a part of the family, then it is still better for you to tell something about yourself. You can't earn trust with tons of secrets.

Makarov looked towards the door and smiled:

- I think it will not harm anyone and will only strengthen our connection.

Aidan sighed.

- Maybe so ... But, isn't it better to share everything when the time comes? Why now?

- Because your magic is able to restore the lost, heal the blind, and most likely this is only a small trick of such magic. Your ice raised questions, but this isn't the only God Slayer magic in this world. But, magic that can heal so strongly, this is already from the category of very ancient and incredibly powerful magic. Such magic can attract a lot of attention, including dangerous. I am sure the story behind this is not easy and I want to know if it is dangerous right now. If you have brought dangerous enemies into our walls, tell us about it. But, another thing is important ... I want to know - are there any consequences for you and for Erza from such magic? What's the story behind this?

- So you still want to know about my magic or about me? - Aidan grinned looking at the gloomy old man: - I'll tell you.

When Aidan got serious, everyone in the audience immediately tensed and concentrated. The guy pushed the book aside, leaned back in his chair and sighed:

- It's not so much to remember, old man ... If you start from the very beginning, then even so there is nothing to remember. About twelve or eleven years ago, I was born ... - memories flashed before my eyes, and Aidan darkened again:

- But I missed a happy childhood ... I spent almost twelve years in one position, bound, unconscious, - noticing the bewilderment on the Master's face, the guy's lips curled in a bitter smile:

"The heart of Grimoire has been tested on me all these years. The funny thing is that I don't feel angry at all. I lead you alive, yeah ...

Raising his head to the ceiling, the guy smiled:

- These twelve years did not belong to me initially. I did not belong to myself, therefore, I do not feel resentment at all, rather some kind of emptiness ...

Cana and Gray exchanged glances, they could not believe that someone could be subjected to the experiments for so many years!

"Brother ..." Wendy whispered sadly.

Erza remembered her days in slavery and lowered her head sadly. Remembering how this newcomer smiled carelessly, she could not even think that he had experienced such a thing.

Makarov sighed and asked:

- So you just recently awakened? And how much ... How much has passed?

- About a month and a half.

Makarov sighed softly:

- Only one and a half, yeah ... - the old man shook his head: - You don't live long.

The master immediately drew conclusions and asked:

- So, the one who taught you magic, taught you to read? - glancing at the book, Makarov narrowed his eyes: - You learn pretty quickly.

Aidan shook his head.

- No, I just got knowledge and that's it. My magic is definitely not dangerous for Erza and for the guild, I am absolutely sure of that. As for my knowledge, everything is difficult to explain here, it's magic ...

Makarov narrowed his eyes suspiciously, but still did not question him.

- Okay, so you know almost nothing about yourself except the last month?

- Not really, I remember some moments from childhood, vague ... But I remember. Everything I got can be called luck, especially my magic. My reserves of magic are due to these mages at Grimoire Heart. They siphoned the magic out of me year after year ... "Aidan sighed." Anyway ...

Having rummaged in his pocket, the guy still decided to pull out something from the past. Therefore, he pulled the battered folder out of his pocket and handed it to Makarov:

- That's all I know about myself and my family.

It will not be superfluous to share this, yet something important was not stored in the folder. Aidan did not count on Makarov or anyone else in his quest to reach his sister and mother anyway.

The old man carefully opened the folder and grimly began to read. From the very first pages, he was more and more surprised. At some point, almost ten minutes later, Makarov finally looked up from the tattered sheets:

- So you're her son ... amazing.

Aidan paused, understanding where the conversation was going, but then asked:

- Did you know her?

- Not really, - Makarov sighed: - Rather, I heard about her, several years ago ... Besides, Gray. You might not know, but she taught him. Ur was a powerful sorceress and ...

No sooner had the old man finished than the door to the library swung open. Cana didn't even have time to understand what was happening when Gray burst into the library and ran to Aidan:

- You ... You are the son of Ur ?!

Everyone else followed Gray into the office. This time, Wendy didn't rush to her brother, but just smiled warmly. Erza tried not to look in the direction of the Master and Aidan at all, Cana remained on the sidelines, continuing to observe the situation.

At Gray's reaction, Aidan just sighed and nodded.

- Yes, I'm her son.

"Impossible," Gray shook his head. "She said her baby was dead!

- Calm down, Gray, - Makarov got up and returned the folder to Aidan.

The guy hid it again and patted Gray on the shoulder.

- Ur had two children, she didn't say?

- She said that her first child did not survive, and then the second one too ... So you ...

"I don't know exactly the reason why she gave the second child to this Bureau ... Maybe it's that someone arranged my death. Perhaps Ur didn't give me away at all.

Aidan became more and more inclined towards this option. It is too strange that a woman could take and give first one child, and then the second. There is some kind of story about which even this folder is not written ...

Gray suddenly became sad, after a long silence, he sighed and shook his head.

- She did not often talk about you, even less about the second child. She just ... cried, - with a sad smile, Gray looked guiltily at Aidan and said:

- She died because of me, so ... I ... - the guy just didn't know what to say, on his face, so everything was written.
