Chapter 79

As soon as Aidan mentioned his magic, Mavis's bottomless green eyes trembled.

- Life and death ... Can there be a curse ...

- What are you muttering?

"Oh," Mavis looked up and quickly asked, "What else do you know? What else did you get from that grimoire? What did he look like? Where did you find him? And what kind of death? How did you know about Anxelam's curse? How does this relate to you? You showed me the magic of life, why didn't you show me death? You do not trust me? I'm the First Master! Why do not you trust me?

Aidan's eyebrows twitched as he raised his voice.

- Wait a minute!

- Oo-oo-oo ... Well? Do I look suspicious or do I look like an evil witch? Why don't you answer me?

Aidan massaged his temples in displeasure and let out a long sigh.

- You ask too many questions ... Come on slowly.

Mavis giggled and sat down next to the monument.

- Then tell me! - her eyes sparkled curiously: - Your magic is very curious, I want to know everything!

Aidan narrowed his eyes suspiciously, and then looked thoughtful.

- Well, I don't even know ...

- Wh-what? You don't trust me after all! - Mavis pouted cute cheeks: - We're actually from the same guild ...

The guy shrugged his shoulders:

- I believe you, but if you want to know something, shouldn't I get something in return?

- Mm? And what do you want, I have nothing, - Mavis blinked innocently: - I'm just a little girl! Look, I don't even have shoes!

Playfully wiggling her little feet, Mavis giggled.

- Eh, - Aidan let out a loud sigh: - I thought that our first master is a great sorcerer with strong magic, and here is a little girl pretending to be a child!

- Hey! I'm not your child! I also know a lot, so ask what you want!

"I'd like to go right away," Aidan smiled and sat down next to the girl. "I want to know more about the three great spells of Fairy Tail, as well as about illusions.

Mavis blinked in surprise.

- Why do you need it, you have the magic of God Slayers, even two!

- It will not be superfluous, like telepathy, teleportation and mental projection. I also want to learn this.

- Hey Hey hey! - Mavis waved her hands: - I'm not your teacher! Hmm, if you want to know something, tell me something about your magic.

Aidan nodded immediately.

- I'm even ready to show.

- Well, okay ... then start! Mavis smiled sweetly. "I'm listening to you.

"Aren't you supposed to start?" You are older than me and you should be more patient, and also take care of the younger ones.

- What? Who said that? - Mavis pouted with displeasure: - If I'm older, then show respect!

"Eh, you're right ..." Aidan nodded. "Old people need to be treated with respect."

- Wh-what ?! Oh you ... - Mavis snorted and nodded gravely: - Okay, "junior" I'll just tell you about the magic of Illusions, but never to stutter about my age again!

Aidan did not answer, but continued to grin, looking at this pretty face with mock resentment.

Mavis rolled her eyes in annoyance and nodded.

- Okay, okay, since you insist ...

And so their fateful meeting took place: the First Fairy met the Legendary Calamity ...

Then Mavis had no idea what pushed his determination to new heights. Wishing to protect Fairy Tail from any threats, he was filled with ambition and sought to learn all the magic of the world.

Before him sat the girl who changed his life. Aidan quickly developed sympathy over the sweet conversation, even if he did not notice it. For the first time in this life, it was not he who attracted others, but himself, like a dark shadow, strove to absorb its light.

*

A few days later, little changed on Tenrou Island. In the same place, not far from the grave of the first Master, a tall, long-haired guy tried to repeat a complex spell.

Stretching his arms out in front of him, Aidan concentrated his strength - at the same moment a wooden desk and a couple of chairs appeared on the empty rocky area.

Mavis giggled playfully and easily took off, landing on the edge of the table.

- Not bad! You clearly have talent! - she praised Aidan, continuing to swing her slender legs:

- Since you succeeded and this, I think you will cope further on your own, I have already passed the Fairy's Law and Shine to you, and you will deal with the rest yourself. You have good abilities - you still have time to learn a lot, take your time.

Aidan just nodded, don't focus too much on the girl's words. Although he understood that he should not be inflamed, but after surviving a couple of years in that cave, his view of magic changed. Now he wanted to be able to avoid falling into such traps. Besides, after meeting her ...

Turning his wistful gaze to Mavis, Aidan smiled slightly. Being in this place was like a reward for long trials in that place. He seemed to have returned to his homeland and met a fairy. She was so kind, playful and beautiful that he quickly forgot about the main problem ... Using the magic of life so often, he very quickly missed the most important thing.

Clutching sharply at his chest, Aidan turned pale.

- Heck! - a cute fairy tale about a stupid wizard and his fairy was smashed to smithereens! Black veins immediately spread across his face, and his eyes began to take on a cold silver shade.

- Hey, what is it ?! Mavis exclaimed worriedly, reaching him quickly.

- Is that what you were talking about?

Aidan jerked his head up and growled hoarsely.

- Go away! The first thing I want to do is pounce on you!

- What? B-but ... - Mavis frowned. - I can make the body incorporeal and then ...

- Not! - Aidan spat sharply: - Go away! I shouldn't feel you! If I learn a trace, I will begin to destroy everything! Uh-go ...

Aidan gritted his teeth and could no longer hold on. He clearly knew how he would act when he addressed. Mavis attracted him even before turning, but as soon as he lost control, he would most likely immediately pounce and would never be able to calmly look her in the eyes after. If she disappears before his eyes, he will immediately break loose and begin to destroy everything around him in a rage.

Mavis hesitated, but then, biting her lip, she immediately turned into a sheaf of glowing lights and rose into the sky, disappearing into the distance. Aidan continued to growl and claw at stones, his fingers already rubbed to the bone, and black veins reaching his face. Then he finally lost her aura and howled furiously! Black marks immediately covered his face, his eyes lit up with silver, chilling fires, and he stood up. Proudly straightening up to his full height, the fingers on the guy's hands quickly healed, the blood immediately stopped sprinkling the ground.

The monster reawakened, particles of life and death scattered throughout the body. Covered from head to toe with black veins, Aidan resembled a grim demonic monster. Only a silhouette remained from the man. Unlike previous times, the black veins became much thicker, and his right arm was completely blackened, even his long hair seemed to emit a dark deadly mist and wriggle in the air like poisonous snakes. Before he had time to turn, the roots of the trees nearby quickly dried up.

Silver eyes shone brighter and brighter, and dark lights flickered on black fingers, more like claws. Aidan exhaled a chilling dark mist and grinned ominously.

- Hmm ... - Paying attention to the heavens, the guy narrowed his eyes. Aidan had not expected this at all - now in those eyes, in addition to the insane rage from the previous conversion, there was a clearer consciousness. Even if distorted, but he was at times superior to his past mind. Since that pirate massacre, it has evolved again!
