Hey all, M.D. Knight here again with another chapter. Now before we being I want to say how awesome it is that we have cleared ten thousand views for this story. As such, I've busted my but to hammer out a chapter that's just thirty-one words short of five thousand words. I wanted to give you all a chapter that was ten thousand words long to celebrate, however, I quickly came to realize that if I did that then I would be late for my weekly updates for some time as the time I have to hammer out chapters had gone down. So I apologize for not being able to give you a ten thousand word chapter. Yet it doesn't end there, I have managed to edit the first chapter of The Fox and The Cat, as it is one of the Two leading stories to be transferred over and completed next. So if you want to see it now rather then when this storyline is completed, let me know in a review and if enough of you all want it, then I'll put it up ahead of when it should be, but only this once.
Now, speaking of the poll for what story I am going to transfer and complete next, we currently have a tie for first place between Naruto and his she-devil and The Fox and The Cat. In second place by just one vote away from the front-runners, we have The leaf's dragon. Third place is at a six-way tie between Dragon's Wrath, Human Teigu, Life With A Dragon Slayer, Naruto's second beginning, The Fairy and The Saber, and The Leaf's Whirlpool Book 1. With all of them only being one vote behind The Leaf's dragon. As for fourth place, we have an eleven-way tie. So if you haven't voted, go do it once you've read the chapter.
Also, I would like to say a thank you to all who review my stories. That said, please be sure that your review corresponds to the chapter you post it for. I say this due to how a review for the last update, if you are one of the ones that read through my review responses, then you will see just what I mean. Now, on with the responses for the reviews of the last update.
sykartracer chapter 11. Apr 25: Well, Gray has taken over, Erza is his puppet (and I'm willing to bet he has, or will, used his manipulative words to turn Erza into his sex toy), and it appears the consciousness of Master Mavis (that's my theory as to why people with the mark have been able to see her: she implanted her consciousness to the mark prior to her coma) has seen the change in the guild and does not approve. I'm betting the three great Fairy spells will backfire on everyone. And I'm also betting that the mysterious voice is Grandeeney! ~ I so want to give you the answers to your theories, however, that would spoil the chapter for you. That said, I can tell you that your theory about the Guild Marks, while not entirely correct for this storyline, is close to something I am saving for later in the storyline. Also, I am glad to see that you are liking the story so far.
25NaMi chapter 11. Apr 25: Good chapter, love it and I loved to hear that this I'd going to be a long story! ~ Glad that I am pleasing my readers, if you ever have any Ideas thoughts or opinions, I would be glad to hear them.
D Samurai chapter 11. Apr 25: first of all, this chapter was so damn amazing and plot-twist Central, which is also the good work I like! Gray needs to definitely get decimated in the worst way and I hope Makarov joins Natsu's new guild. there's more to say but I don't wanna spoil it for the others! PM me if you got questions and I'm so hyped for the next chapter! DRAGON CLAN FOR LIFE!? ~ Glad it lived up to what I was hoping it would. I can tell you that Makarov won't be joining Natsu's guild, there is a reason for it pertaining to the storyline, but I also don't like Makarov. Now I have seen some spoilers for how the rest of the story plays out in the manga, however, I am primarily an anime fan. So as far as I know, he had only had ONE redeeming moment within the series that COULD have lead to me forgiving him for past action but that when down the drain when he didn't change the very reason that I don't like characters like Him and Sarutobi.
EverythingAnimefan1994 chapter 11. Apr 25: Oh shit just got real! And awesome new chapter keep up the awesome work :) ~ Happy to hear that my readers like the story I am making. as for shit getting real, HEHEHEHEHE, just you wait to see what I have for the chapter after this.
HaM3D chapter 1. Apr 26: good chapter can't wait for the next update, seems like gray is lying to the guild wonder what Makarov will do? wonder what the council will do about fairy tail? ~ Though I am happy to read that you like the story and the questions you are having about it, please ensure that your review matches the chapter you are putting it on as I don't want the reviews to spoil anything for those that are reading them to decide if they want to read the story or not. Please keep this in mind for the future. As for what the Makarov will do, that is in chapter 13.
Xivitai chapter 11. Apr 27: Ok... wtf? How those morons managed to escape? ~ The answer to your question is in the chapter, read if you wish to know.
Now, let's move into the actual story and do remember to vote and review when your done reading.
Chapter 12
"Oh, Why I am Natsu's mother," The woman said with her ever-present, joyful smile and gently closed eyes as she slightly tilted her head to the side.
Upon hearing the woman's words, the plan of flames that Mira found herself in, instantly returned to that of a white void with the only way of identifying where you were being the table that the woman was currently sitting at.
"Y… y… your Natsu' mother" Mira stuttered out with a very deep blush and dinner plate sized eyes.
"That I am, and I must say that it took you two long enough. I was beginning to think you two would never get together" The woman said with her smile never once leaving her face.
"Well, I did try to make my feelings known to him," Mira said as she acted like a young child being scolded by their parent with her suddenly finding her feet to be of great interest. Remembering the time that he had come to see how she was doing after Lisanna's death, and how the pain of her sister's death had led her to try letting her actions confess her feelings for her. Only to have Natsu not understand what had driven her to do such a thing and act like it hadn't happened the moment that the kiss had ended.
"Sweetheart, Natsu is a Dragneel, and as much as I love him and his father, when it comes to matters of the heart… they're idiots. Plain and simple, there hasn't been a Dragneel in existence that wasn't. Understanding pain, suffering, fighting, or almost anything else and they will have an uncanny instinct for it. Love going beyond that of a friend or a love for your family, and not even dropping a planet on their heads would make them understand. Well, when it comes to their own love life that is." The woman said in a very bland tone of voice as Mira could only giggle in agreement.
Yet it was as Mira agreed with this, that another realization dawned on her.
"Wait, if your Natsu's mother, then how are you here?" Mira asked as she began working her brain to try figuring out how it was even possible.
"One of the MANY perks of being mated with a Dragon King," The woman said as both of them were unable to keep a strong blush from forming on their faces. "Oh, where are my manners, please, sit. We do have a lot to talk about after all." The woman said as the second chair around the table pulled itself out for Mira. "Now, before I give you a better answer to how I am here, I believe that I should tell you my name," the lady said as Mira sat down. "I am Susan Dragneel, Igneel's first mate, and mother Natsu. It's a pleasure to finally meet the girl that my son has had his eye on for several years now." The now identified Susan said as Mira could only gap at the revelation that her stepmother had just dropped.
"Natsu has had his eye on me for Years?" Mira asked in disbelief.
"Indeed, in fact, he's had a crush on you since he first got to the guild. From the moment he stepped foot into that building, your scent drew him to you like a moth to a flame, and that was before he first laid eyes on you. He was so frustrated over his inner dragon was taking so long to choose you as he already had, even getting to the point that he feared it wouldn't. Yet I knew that you would be his queen from the moment that he first caught your scent. Oh, and you should have seen how nervous he was at just the thought of going to the guild hall after he had joined the guild." Susan giggled out as Mira could only blush at what she was hearing. "Anyway, I do believe that it's time I answered your question. Though I do need to know, what all has Igneel explained to you about the Mateship of dragons?" Susan asked Mira, with an absolutely serious tone.
"Well, I know that Dragons mate for life, that once one has mated there is no reversal for it besides that of a Dragon King, for that branch of dragons, forcing the mating to be dissolved. Um, that those mating will mark each other and that the mark allows the aging for the non-dragon mate to have their age almost halt upon reaching the age of twenty-five. Oh, and that Fire Dragons become rather… aggressive… with their mates during natural events that involve the sun in some way." Mira finished answering with a small blush as Susan gave her a predator like-grin.
"Oh, you have no idea. Sure, NORMAL Fire Dragons get aggressive. However, Royal Fire Dragons, their another story. Tell me, can you recall what happened when you two marked each other?" Susan asked as Mira's already strong blush deepened.
"No, it's all black. The last thing I remember is me sinking my teeth into his neck. After that, I can vaguely recall removing his scarf from his neck before it goes dark." Mira said as Susan held an expectant look.
"I figured as much, you see there is a reason that is happening to you. That reason being that Humans can't really handle the memory of the Mark Mating. The sensory overload, that you would accompany those memories, would render you paralyzed for who knows how long. I myself was only able to recall flashes of what happened before my Mate Mark finished cementing itself and that is with me being part Dragon." Susan said much to Mira's shock as Natsu's mother unknowingly caused Mira to desperately want to know just what had happened the night before. "Now," Susan continued as she pulled Mira from her thoughts. "I have all the information I need to explain what all becoming my son's mate will entail for you. First off, mating with a dragon goes FAR beyond any form of a relationship you could EVER have with ANYONE else. This is due to the Mark Mating quite literally binding your soul with my son's for eternity. Not even death can sever the bond you've formed with him. Which, leads me to how I am even here. You see, once you've mated with a dragon, the Mate Mark is slowly changing your physiology to match Natsu's. When the Mark had full finished tying you two together, it will have finished mutating your body to what it would have been for your parents to bring you into this world as an Elemental. However, the Mark will still preserve your original magic as well as granting you the magic of an Elemental. Just as the Mark will let Natsu gain Takeover Magic on par with your own. Though you are going to need to help him learn to use it just as you yourself could use work on your own Takeover magic." Susan stated, with Mira gaining a frown.
"That won't happen, after I deliver Natsu's and My child, I'll hardly have any access to my magic," Mira said only to find herself being slapped out of her chair by a dragon tail to her face.
"Get over yourself!" Susan raged at the downed Mira as the table and chairs had vanished, replaced by a cradle that was now holding the egg that Susan previously had been. "Yes, you lost your sister and that is a terrible thing that happened. But you've had my son practically glued to your side for the past two years. Doing absolutely everything he could to ease your pain. And let me tell you this, male Dragon's, no matter what category they fall into, aren't attracted to WEAK women. It repulses them and for male Fire Dragons, let alone Royals, it quite frankly pisses them off. So no, I won't accept your quitting when you're using the Magic that I created. Especially when you have yet to truly even master your base transformation. It's time to stop living in the past and get your butt back in the ring. Or are you just going to let Natsu kill himself protecting you and my grandchild when you could save him by helping him fight?" Susan challenged Mira as she watched Mira's kind eyes regain a large amount of their formerly dangerous shine. Which, mixed perfectly with the compassionate gaze that her eyes had come to naturally hold.
"Just who do you think you're trying to push around?" Mira shot back as she narrowed her eyes.
Good, now that we've settled that, let's get back to the matter at hand," Susan said as Mira Picked up the egg, allowing for the table and chairs to return. "As I had said before, the Mating Mark binds the two mates together for eternity, and as you know, Dragons live for a very long time. It is due to these two factors that... a side-effect, if you will, formed within the dragon race. That side-effect is that when one of us dies, our souls don't immediately move on. In fact, our souls enter our children so that we may act as advisors to the mates of our children throughout the rest of their life. As should one of their mates die, our soul will return to our children's body until they take another mate or we will move between their mates, should they have more than one. Though only a Royal dragon can take another mate if their previous one dies. However, the way this even happens in the first place is very specific. When a mother passes, her soul resides with her son so that she may learn the unfiltered way that they think before we move to reside with our son's mate. Thus, allowing us to help guide them in not only matters of the new life they will now be leading, but to help them understand their mate in a way that they would never have been able to do so before." Susan said as Mira couldn't help but scowl.
"I'll have you know that I understand Natsu perfectly fine." Mira found herself snapping in an uncharacteristically uppity tone as she didn't like that Natsu's mother felt that she, Natsu's mate, didn't know her love, whom she had spent years watching all so that she would be able to ensure a happy relationship with him. Provided that she had ever had the nerve to confess her feelings for him, and despite her having not confessed, her reasoning for watching Natsu so closely throughout the years still rung true.
"Really, then I assume you knew, that despite his attraction to you, that Natsu was terrified to even be with you because he fears he may end up hurting you. Yet he loves you so much that he is forcibly surprising that fear just to make you happy. Yet you knew that already, didn't you?" Susan challenge as Mira was unable to refute Susan's statement. "I didn't think so. Look, I understand how much it must hurt you to know that there are still things about Natsu that you don't know, it was the same for me when Igneel and I first got together. However, that Is why I am here, to help you develop your bond with my son to the point that you'll know him like the back of your hand. After all, the saying that "behind every great king is a great queen" isn't for nothing. My son needs you, he may come off like an unshakable pillar of strength at times, but he's still a being of flesh and blood, he still needs to be able to deal with his emotions just like anyone else would. Which, is one of the areas that you will play a major role for my son." Susan said as she ended with a radiant smile and pulled Mira into a hug. "Now it's time you get back to that lovable knucklehead, heaven only knows what trouble he'll get into without you, and besides, we'll have plenty of time to talk later," Susan whispered into Mira's ear as the princess of all Fire Dragons felt herself being pulled back into the real world and the egg in her arms being taken by her stepmother.
Meanwhile, in the real world
"Monsters that predate any recorded history. Monsters that were either born to or made by the beings that founded this world. Monsters whose identities, descriptions and abilities should remain lost from the pages of history by everyone except those who stand guard over them," A distinctly feminine voice said, causing everyone to turn their attention to the newcomer. Yet even with the clearly feminine voice, the group was still unprepared for the sight that greeted them.
There, before the group appeared what seemed to be a thirteen-year-old girl with very long, wavy, pastel blonde hair that reached down to her feet with a small ahoge, large green eyes with no pupils, and peachy skin. The girl could be seen wearing a frilly, pink layered robe with a red ribbon tied in a bow around her neck. Around the chest are three blue diamond patterns with two blue triangles above. Each series of these is outlined in a hot pink. She also had wing-like adornments around her ears with small hoop earrings in her earlobes and seemed to prefer going barefoot if her lack of shoes was anything to go by.
"Long time No see Igneel," The small girl said with a smile.
"Indeed, it has been, how have you been young Mavis," Igneel said as all the former Fairy Tail members around them had their jaws crash into the ground.
"Hold it, how are you even here? Even here, even here" Bigslow said with his floating totems repeating his last two words.
"I'm afraid that I can't tell you that, anything about how I know about those monsters, or even what those monsters are. Though as I said before, they are creatures that should have all know knowledge of them lost from the pages of history for all but those who stand guard over them. Also, I can tell you that only those who bear an untainted Fairy Tail guild mark, can see me as I am now," the now identified Mavis said as she quickly dealt with the asked question along with the ones she knew was sure to immediately follow it.
"Untainted?" Levey asked.
"Yes, those who still bare the Fairy Tail guild mark, with Natsu's approval, will see me. After all, he is the current guardian of Fairy Tail, so it is only natural that he would hold such an authority. Though this also means that he, and those who join him, will be held responsible to deal with those who are illegally bearing the Fairy Tail emblem." Mavis said seriously, "Of course, now that Natsu had ordered the disbanding of Fairy Tail, any changes he makes to his own guild mark will affect all of yours as well. As Natsu is now the new Guild Master and Guardian of the guild, such as his role of Guardian now demands. Yet his role of guardian will prevent his future children from becoming Guild Master due to them needing to take on the role of Guardian once Natsu passes on the role of Guild Master," Mavis continued as a smile graced her face. "Of which, I'm sure that he will do a wonderful job." Mavis beamed only to be greeted by gentle giggling.
"I'm glad that I'm not the only one who thinks that," The group heard Mira say as they all turned to see her sitting up and the hole in her dress having mended itself in such a way that it was like it hadn't even been there.
"Not to be the bummer of the group, but we need to get moving. Erza and Gray got away when we all were focused on getting Natsu back to normal before we had to treat his wounds. Now, I don't know about the rest of you, but I don't trust Gray and we aren't exactly in a position to put up a fight if he comes back with reinforcements. I mean, they have Makarov and Erza on their side and there is no way Laxus could take them both," Cana said as her words caused everyone to see just how right she was.
Igneel was in no shape to fight; the black flames of Oblivion having done considerable damage to the Dragon King. A testament to the flame's irrefutable strength. Elfman was holding his ribs and had a severe limp, more than likely having gained several broken bones from Oblivion's last strike, regardless of if Gildarts had been able to soften the blow for hulking man by using his crash magic to shatter the ground below Elfman just before Oblivion made contact. Laxus looked to have become mentally rattled by Igneel and was also favoring his ribs as well. Thus, leaving Gildarts as their most battle ready, offensive fighter and given the man's style of fighting, that was not an option right now.
"Oh, and where are we to go?" Mira questioned Cana as she moved to be sitting with Natsu's head resting carefully in her lap. "We all have already agreed to follow Natsu as our new Guild Master, yet he's now out of commission for who knows how long and none of us know where he intended to set up the new guild at," Mira said as she felt the need to point out what she perceived to be a crucial flaw in Cana's statement.
"You're forgetting that I know almost all of his plans for the new guild. Including where he wants to set it up at," Cana said as she was unable to keep the smug smile from her face as she watched Mira scowl at her.
"Then lead the way," Mira growled out through a clenched jaw as her still forming, dragon instinct flared in wanting bloodlust that Mira had to fight to keep control of. Which, was thanks to a key fact about all dragons being that they were both mutually and insanely possessive of their mates. So the fact that Cana not only was making her intentions towards Natsu known, but also having knowledge about Natsu that Mira didn't, was causing her to have to fight against the actions that, her previously heightened instincts, were demanding her to take.
Sure, Mira may not have had the senses on par with that of a dragon, but she did have her instincts in tune with that of the demons she had taken over. One of the side effects of exclusively practicing takeover on beings of demonic origin that Mira had been unaware of when she first gained her magic and decided to strictly use demonic takeovers. A decision that she had so that no other child would suffer the fate that she and her siblings had when they had tried to liberate their hometown from the demon that had taken over the church. Something that was now coming to doubly bite her in the butt as the Mating Mark was not only causing her to develop Royal Dragon instincts which, were a problem all on their own, but also amplified her demonic instinct as well. Making for a very dangerous and very volatile mix of instincts.
Though the main reasoning for this dangerous situation was due to the fact that where a Dragon would find an annoyance in a situation, a demon would see a threat. Where a Dragon would first try to avoid the annoyance before moving to attempt to diplomatically end the problem, a demon would try to intimidate the source of the annoyance before it terminated it upon the first option not working. If the demon didn't simply obliterate the source in the first place.
Needless to say, Cana was playing with what she thought to be a campfire sized threat. When in reality she face to face with a supernova-sized threat that she was threatening to turn into a blackhole-sized threat.
"Gladly," Cana answered as she went to pick up Natsu, only to be grabbed by the throat and flung from the group.
"Keep your hands off him, he's mine," Mira hissed as she was rapidly losing ground to her demonic instinct.
However, what was most shocking for those looking on to what was rapidly building to be a very bloody catfight, was that Mira's eye's had developed reptilian slitted pupils, her forearms were sporadically developing a scale-like outline, and her nails had seemingly filed themselves into razor-sharp claws.
Knowing what was about to happen, and knowing he was in no condition to stop it as well as the fact that his son would not be pleased with the outcome, to say the least. Igneel did the only thing he could as he threw back his head and released a mighty roar that had had everyone but Mira, the slowly raising Cana, and the unconscious Natsu, dropping to the ground as they covered their ears.
Upon the roar's end, all Igneel could do was hope his act of desperation would work as he watched the two women glare at one another. With the only thing currently keeping either one from lunging at the other being that Mira still had Natsu's head in her lap.
With Gray
As Gray read through the book on the capabilities of the Guild Mark, he was unable to keep from smiling. As the further in that Gray read, the more his plan seemed like it would be able to be carried out with ease. Why he hadn't done this years ago, Gray didn't know as he was honestly quite shocked at how simple it was going to be. Yes, there would be no shortage of those that would say what he was about to do was morally wrong but Gray didn't care anymore. All Gray cared about was what he wanted, and he wanted Natsu's head on his wall, for both Mira and Erza to be drooling over him like he felt that they were always meant to be. It didn't matter to him what the world might say, he was fighting a demon and if that meant becoming one in the process, then so be it. Thus, Gray had castaway all feelings of morally right and wrong and had embraced his path as a demon that hunted other demons.
"Ice-Make: Doorway to The Eternal Library" Gray yelled as an intricately designed doorway formed on the sidewall of the Guild Master's office.
Upon use of the doorway, Gray came face to face with what could only be described as a labyrinth of a library. He could plainly see that the library had several floors to it and each floor looked to be equal to that of a five-story building if he was gaging the fight of the bookshelves right. For light, gray saw massive chandeliers hanging from the ceiling. Gray could also see that there were various types of owls flying from place to place. Some of the owls were grabbing grimoires, others were placing them back and there were even ones that were cleaning the library. The next thing that Gray took note of was that every five feet or so, there was a larger table and lamp set up for one to sit and read, mix potions, practice the spells or any number of things that the grimoires would require them to need. The last thing he saw was that he was currently standing in what was a passageway between sections as unlike in the areas designated for specific grimoires, the area he was in had railings to keep one from falling off of the walkway.
Finally overcoming his shock at how massive the library was, Gray couldn't hold back the evil smile he had over the fact that the rumor he had heard about Maker Magic permitting the user to make things that would work in place of other magics, was actually true. What's more, that the library fabled to contain grimoires for every type of magic, actually existed and was now at his disposal. With this, no one would be left to oppose him, provided he didn't anger That being.
Yet before Gray could even take a single step, a massive owl landed in front of him, making him freeze in place as he knew the very beginning he was trying to avoid, often took on the form of an owl that was easily the size of a three-story house.
As the owl continually jerked its head, it watched Gray, all while making several different noses with only the first nose belonging to an owl. Finally falling silent, then the owl's form began to smoke until one could no longer see the owls form.
Taking his chances, Gray bolted for the door he had made only to be surprised when a human-like figure appeared between him and the door. The figure was as white as a sheet of paper and outlined with a border of black particles. It had the outline of ears on its head, but one could have had to be a human to know that, that was what the small ovals on the side of its head were supposed to be. Beyond that, the figure lacked any other features that would make it look human. No nose, eye socket outline, mouth, fingers or even toes. Thus making it look little better than a human figure cut from paper.
"Human?" a feminine voice boomed throughout the massive library, almost as though it was alive.
"What?" Was the only response that Gray could manage in his shocked state.
"You are a male of the Human race, correct?" The same voice echoed, as it clarified what it was wanting to know and the figure pointed its arm at Gray.
"Y… yes," Gray choked out.
"Oh, it's been so long since one of you came here. I… why so scared? Is it due to the form I have taken? If so, then I will gladly change to another to make you more comfortable with me. Though it will still have to be a form of something that can speak your language." The voice spoke as the figure tilted its head.
"What? Oh, no, your form doesn't bother me. It's, well… you're the guardian of the library, aren't you?" Gray asked as the figure nodded its head. "Ar… Aren't you going to kill me for what I intend to use your library for?" Gray continued as the figure tilted its head to the side as if to convey confusion. "It's said that the guardian of The Eternal Library will kill any who enter the library with the intent to use its knowledge to harm others," Gray explained as the temperature within the library skyrocketed to the point that gray was having to actively use his magic to protect himself.
"WHAT? HOW DARE THEY SPREAD SUCH LIES ABOUT ME! KNOWLEDGE IS SUPPOSED TO BE SHARED, I WOULD NEVER DENY SOMEONE USE OF MY COLLECTION LEST THEY ARE INTENDING TO HARM WHAT I HAVE BUILT! I WILL KILL THEM FOR THIS, THEY SWORE TO ME THAT THEY WERE ONLY GOING TO PLACE A BARRIER TO SHIELD MY LIBRARY FROM THOSE WHO WOULD DO IT HARM!" the voice screamed as the human figure before Gray began to destabilize with its rage. "Tell me, how did you get here?" the voice asked after it had calmed itself and regained control over its form.
"I used my magic to make an entrance," Gray said.
"So there is no entrance to my library in the area you live?" The being asked
"No, in fact, this library is considered nothing more than a bedtime story for wizard parents to tell their children," Gray explained once more before everything fell silent.
"IGNEEL! I'M GOING TO KILL YOU AND ALL THAT YOU AND EVERYONE YOU LOVE!" The voice said as Gray broke into laughter.
"What's so funny?" the being hissed out.
"Oh, I'm not laughing at you," Gray placated. "I'm laughing because we have a common enemy. I want to kill Natsu Dragneel, the son of Igneel." Gray chuckled out.
"A common enemy indeed. Tell me, how can I add the enemy of my enemy" The voice said after a rather long pause.
"Well, for starters, I would appreciate it if you could show me where to get the grimoires pertaining to salve and obedience magic, I will be needing them to keep that demon in line once I have him captured. It will be difficult to make him suffer otherwise." Gray explained.
"Of course, Mr…." The being stated as it trailed off.
"Fullbuster, Gray Fullbuster but you can call me Gray," Gray filled in for the being
"Well, it is a pleasure to meet you, Gray, I am Wisdom," The now identified Wisdom said as the humanoid figure in front of Gray raised what was presumably its hand. Causing several grimoires to fly from their spots on their bookshelves before stacking themselves neatly in front of Gray. "Provided that you will take care of these grimoires, and bring them back once you are done, you may take these back with you." Wisdom said to Gray.
"Thank you for your kindness, I will ensure that these grimoires are well looked after myself," Gray said before the humanoid figure, that had been blocking him from leaving, vanished.
Seeing no reason to delay, Gray began moving the grimoires form the library to his office. Completely unaware of the events he had just set in motion by doing so.
That's it for this time. I hope you all have enjoyed the story so far. Please remember to review and I'll catch you in the next chapter.
