I will like to get chapter 5 and 6 which are short out of the way soon. I will update the next one when I'm done with my school assignment.
Oh yeah, I had written briefly on the system of the S Class examination for this fic.
Chapter 5: The Moving Wheel of Fate
In the underground dark prison of the Magic Council, Jellal was talking to somebody in the dark. He was the General aka the puppet master of the Kingdom Empire, Brain related to his upcoming mission.
"What makes you think I will believe you?" Jellal was standing outside of the cell where Brain was held. He folded his arms leaning on the wall opposite his cell.
"Mr Jellal will believe me. You believed in me once and managed to save the life of that tool, remember?" Jellal was deep in his thought.
"I'm being held here. What makes you think I will try to do anything funny again? My magic power is sealed as long as I'm in here. I can't harm anybody like this. Besides, I had fought your disciple and thanks to him, I had seen through things. It's strange isn't it? I'm glad that I met your disciple. That's all I know. Take it or leave it."
"Alright, I take your words. I will look into it." Jellal recalled something he needed to remind Brain. He had been rather pissed about it whenever he heard him calling his disciple by that name. "I hope you will watch your words. Natsu Dragion is a life not a tool."
They were discussing about a certain dark guild. They were trying to revive a certain dark mage. The world will plunge into darkness should he be allowed to revive. That guild had released a certain information that they will require a mage with a caliber of a wizard saint as the vessel to revive him. Jellal was going to investigate this for his upcoming mission. He would like to see it for himself what they are up to. He was a wizard saint after all.
Over at Fairy Tail, people were gathering outside the guild. There was a friendly battle going on between S Class mages, Tsuna and Erza. This was going to be exciting.
Watching the battle, Gray was lamenting about himself not being their match. He told himself he needed to work harder. He just realized that this was also a challenge by Tsuna to Erza and brought up the same old topic to Lucy beside him again.
"Have you told him about your relationship with Natsu? I don't want to be the next person standing in front of Tsuna next time thanks to some misunderstanding involving you."
"You must be kidding me? By the way, if you want to pass your S class exam, you should be of his level or even higher especially you are much more experienced. How do you want to pass it if you don't have confidence at all? Who knows, I may just pass it before you." Lucy retorted. Gray was skeptical.
"You are going to take the exam? I think you better forget it. Wait till you are promoted to A class. Only A class mages are eligible for the exam. By doing enough missions and performing well at it, you should be able to promote to A class rather quickly. But for S class, exam is compulsory and it is only held once a year." Overhearing the conversation, Jet of the Shadow Gear interrupted Gray.
"Hurry up and pass your exam, Gray. You have been an A class for too long. Don't waste your effort and money after attending the Magic School. Even Natsu, a B class mage had been promoted to A class after the incident with Kingdom Empire. A pity that he was losing his magic power. "
"Natsu is promoted? Same as me. I was promoted to A class too." Lucy exclaimed.
"What?! I always thought that you are a C class." Gray commented sarcastically upon hearing that. It seemed that he was unaffected by Jet's words.
Gossipmonger, Happy was watching them. Gray and Lucy were bickering once again. He was getting bored by them. They should hurry up confessed since they seemed to like one another. Tsuna would not object despite picking on Gray all the time.
Turning around, Happy placed his bet on Erza winning the match.
"Happy, shouldn't you cheer Tsuna on? You traitor!" Lucy exclaimed.
"I'm honoured to be able to challenge you. Although you are my master's wife (ex), I'm not holding back. I'm quite aware on your ability. To defend my name as Fireball, I shall defeat you swiftly."
"That's great to hear. Not only that you are his disciple, you are also a genius. Even though people don't think well of you, I shall not underestimate you." With that Erza re-equipped into her Flame Empress Armour.
"That is interesting. I'm all fired up." Tsuna raised his fist on fire preparing to attack and the battle began.
They went at it for some time. Erza felt that Tsuna had improved tremendously as compared to when she fought him once by Jellal's request as a form of his training. Indeed Jellal was right that he had the potential to surpass her and even him.
"Iron Fist of fire…" Tsuna lunged at Erza who blocked his attack but they were stopped by a clap of hands before they can continue. The crowd quiet down as they watched a frog-like creature calling himself as the magistrate of the Magic Council approached the two of them.
"By order of the Magic Council, Fiore Branch, Tsuna Dragion and Erza Scarlet are to report to the Council immediately for the investigation of the disappearance of Wizard Saint, Jellal Fernandes. According to the initial investigation he had met an accident and had disappeared after that."
Erza was unable to react on the news while Tsuna just blurted out his mind, "What did you say? Are you kidding me?"
