It was a blonde girl who looked like a literal porcelain doll perched on top of that grave. Her pastel yellow hair was insane—wavy and long enough to pool around the base of the stone like a silk shroud. She looked barely thirteen, petite and barefoot with those weird, wing-like things on her ears, but there was something off. Those large green eyes of hers were completely pupilless, staring into nothing with a gaze that felt way too heavy for a kid.
This girl is none other than the first-generation Guildmaster of Fairy Tail, Mavis Vermillion. The legal loli who miraculously gave birth to a boy without even realizing it.
Akira walked towards the girl and asked, "Excuse me, miss, but can you not sit on the grave of our first generation. "
"Huh?" Mavis was stunned. Then she pointed to herself and asked, " Can you see me?"
"Of course I can see you " Akira spoke as he began to pat her head. He remembered seeing a forum that said if one were to transmigrate to the Fairy Tail world, they should pat Mavis's head for good luck. And Akira is desperately needs luck otherwise, he would seriously have to consider retiring and becoming a full-time magic shop owner.
Mavis didn't stop Akira's hand. In fact, she even felt happy for being treated like that. Of course she would never admit that.
"Hey, are you also part of Fairy Tail?" Mavis asked as she saw the Fairy Tail symbol on Akira's chest.
"Yes, I'm Akira, and I'm here for the S-rank assessment," Akira said as he introduced himself.
"Huh, wait, how old are you, and to be able to be qualified for the S-class assessment, is the guild alright " Mavis asked with a serious expression. In her opinion Akira seemed to be just 10 years old, and to be considered an S-class candidate, he is either a genius that is seen once in a million years or the guild has no one left.
And Mavis knew that the latter situation had the biggest possibility, so that's why she was very worried. If she remembered correctly, it seems the guild master should be Yuri's son Makarov, right?
Did something happen to Makarov in the past years? No, last time Makarov came, he didn't seem to suffer any serious injuries or incurable diseases. As a ghost who is neither alive nor dead, Mavis can instinctively feel if someone is close to death.
Hearing the various situations in Mavis's head, Akira felt very helpless. Seriously, is it that hard to believe that he is too talented?
"Ehmm, can you stop imagining the worst-case scenarios here? You see, although I look very young, I'm still stronger than most S-class mages " Akira tried to be as tactful as possible. He knew that Mavis was guessing like that because she had no information about the outside world.
Who knew that when Mavis heard his words, not only was she not persuaded, but she even began to imagine more serious situations where the guild was now full of kids and all the powerful mages were nowhere to be seen? In fact her imagination was so active that she didn't even notice the abnormality in Akira's words.
Seeing things are getting out of control Akira sighed slightly and with armament haki covering his fingers, flicked Mavis's forehead.
"Owww," Mavis crouched down, holding her forehead in pain. She had tears in her eyes as she looked at Akira with a look that clearly said, ' Why did you do that? '.
" Calm now " Akira asked as he took out a lollipop from his storage ring and shoved it straight towards Mavis's mouth.
Mavis's cry immediately died as she began to happily enjoy the lollipop.
"Wait, how did you take out this lollipop?" Suddenly Mavis's brain began to work normally. And the abnormalities she previously ignored surfaced in her mind.
" Space Magic " Akira spoke casually as he took out two chairs , a table, desert and a set of tableware for making tea.
" Tea or coffee?" Akira asked as he looked at Mavis with a smile, gesturing for her to sit down. Mavis complied and sat down, although her eyes were looking at the delicious pastries from start to finish.
" Please be my guest " Akira spoke as he pushed the plate that is filled with a slice of strawberry cheesecake towards Mavis. Mavis immediately dug into the cake slice, ignoring all the messy thoughts from earlier.
One could say Akira really understood Mavis completely. He knew that Mavis would get suspicious and began to analyze his abilities, and it would only be a matter of time before she knew about his unique ability.
So this is why Akira decided to set a trap for this loli first. After all, he didn't forget the real reason he took this exam. And besides, after today, he doubted he could milk something out of this girl.
"Ehem, Miss, if I'm not wrong, you are our first-generation guild master, Mavis Vermillion, right?" Akira asked as he looked at her with a smile.
"Hmm." Mavis nodded and gave a thumbs up and spoke, "Yes, that's right, I'm Mavis " she then went back to finish eating the cheesecake.
"So then first generation, I remember Master saying that you are a magic genius who has knowledge about many magics. " Akira as he began to sing many praises about Mavis.
Mavis, being the simple-minded person she is, puffed up her chest as she took in all the praises.
Seeing that the timing was right, Akira decided to go for it. "So, um, first generation, I heard that all three Fairy series' super magic was created by you. "
" Of course that's true " Mavis said as she took the second plate of cake that Akira gave her.
Seeing the fish has taken the bait, Akira smiled inwardly as he asked, "Then, first generation, can you teach me these three super magic spells? I couldn't find any knowledge about them in the guild library. " He also thoughtfully brought out another plate filled with cake.
" But learning super magic this young would have a detrimental problem with your growth " Mavis said, hesitating.
Hearing her words, Akira's eyes shone brightly. It seems his guess was right, President Mavis would not restrict anyone from learning the three super magic spells.
"That's not a problem, first generation. You see, I have dragon blood in me, so my magic power and physical fitness are far stronger than any average mage " Akira said as he dragonized his arm for Mavis.
"Ohh," seeing this, Mavis's curiosity was once again piqued. She knew that some dragons are still alive, but she never expected she would see a dragon halfling. This made her very excited.
"So, Master Mavis, can you teach me the three super magic spells? I really need them to break my bottleneck " Akira then went for the kill as he took out a full cake and slid it towards Mavis.
Mavis instantly understood the situation and spoke, "One cake for each spell "
" deal " Akira spoke as another two cakes were placed on the table.
' hehe I wonder what kind of face Master would make when he realizes I got three super magic spells for just three cakes. ' Akira thought happily. Maybe when Laxus eventually launches a rebellion, he should ask how many cakes it took to learn Fairy Law.
