2 months had passed since Ben completed that job and during that time he hadn't taken another one. He was more concerned about reading the 7 books of Zeref that he found. They were valuable sources of information about Curses and Etherious, so he read them thoroughly.

From these books, Ben found out that the Curses that the Etherious used originated from the Curse of Ankhsheram that Zeref acquired. Zeref must learned that curse in order to break it and ended up creating those demons who's purpose is to destroy him.

"Kill him my ass, they are worshiping him instead. I'm sure they will follow his orders instead of killing him. He also looked like a guy with a personality problem when I saw him in Tenrou Island." Ben commented while trying a few things he found in the books.

The books of Zeref contain details about the Etherious he created in those books. Ben and A.I read the books thoroughly to the point Ben was confident that he could create his own Etherious.

Combined with the Arc of Embodiment, creating Etherious will be easy for Ben. But he wouldn't do that unless it was needed. He had no use for them and he didn't want to become the next Zeref.

His only motivation for reading these books is to learn more about Curses. If he knew more about that, he can improve his Sun Devil Slayer Magic that has Curse power integrated into it. Midas the Sun Demon used that to fight Escanor the Sun Dragon, so he should be able to use it against Acnologia.

"We always need more cards that can be used. That applies to me and the others. A.I Chip, how's the progress on the others' magic improvement?" Ben asked.

Ben and A.I Chip are researching the methods to improve the Fairy Tail mages' abilities. They use all the data they've collected to improve training methods, spell development, etc. There are a lot of mages in their guild, so it took a long time to finish.

[The progress for your family members is good because they are the priority. As for the other Fairy Tail members, only a few have a high possibility of getting good results using our research. The others are predicted to have low results. One family member is also predicted to get lower results unless he got personal guidance.]

"Reason?" Ben asked.

[Intelligence and interest in learning from books.]

Ben's face became dark because he knew exactly who A.I Chip was talking about. "So the idiots, huh? Let me guess. Elfman, Natsu, Gray, Gajeel and most of the boys."

[Correct.]

"I can train Elfman, but I don't have time to train everyone. Just find the best training method for them and I'll tell them. For the others who are willing to do research, then we will print books for them. Fortunately, there is magic that will make it easier. I will not do it if I need to type every letter using a computer." Ben said.

[There is no computer in this world.]

"No shit, Sherlock." Ben said before he began training.

The following month, A.I Chip finished all the research and Ben printed all the results into books. The books aren't made for each person, they are categorized by magic. So the books will be kept in the guild's library and everyone will have access to them.

Ben can make each book for each person, but he didn't do that because personalized stuff can't be passed down to the next generation or be used by others. If the mages want personal tips, they'll have to find Ben and he'll be more than happy to explain it.

Besides, he just wants to provide ways for his friends to improve. They need to think and do it themselves without him telling them to do it. He won't teach anyone that doesn't want to improve themselves, it's just a waste of time.

As planned, Ben registered all the books in the guild's library. There were so many of them that the guild needed to expand it's library. Everyone is dumbfounded by the number of books Ben 'wrote' himself.

Then just like he predicted, many of them tried to read the books, but not all of them had the patience to truly read the books, especially the boys. Steam just came out of their heads before they can even finish a paragraph. That's how they are at reading.

Some of them decided to ask their smarter friends to help them while some asked Ben directly. He didn't have time to help every single one of them so he created clones to do it. Ben did the same for Elfman, only his sisters can be taught directly by him now.

For the next few months, Ben focused on taking care of Mira. Other than that, he works on his family's training. He only took jobs every once in a while to release his stress and give experience to his siblings.

There's no problem so far, only Ben making a big deal out of everything regarding Mira's pregnancy. He forbid any idiot like Natsu, Gray, etc. to get close to her. As for Elfman, he can get closer to her but he's not allowed to touch her belly at all.

Ben's reason is that he's worried that their idiocy might affect his baby. Those who cross that limit that Ben had set receive 'divine punishment' from him. He is just being extremely overprotective of his pregnant wife.

Everyone in the guild thought that Juvia was the only one who went crazy because of love. It turned out that Ben gets even crazier than her when his wife got pregnant. He was calm at first, but as the pregnancy continued, his calmness started to disappear and he became overprotective.

Mira had reprimanded him, but he never listened, so she let him do whatever he wanted. He took really good care of her, and always made her comfortable. Ben pampers her so much right now and she knew it wouldn't last long, so she uses this chance to the fullest.

Her appetite increased as her pregnancy continued. She asked for many kinds of food that Ben had never heard of before. But he will search for it without asking any questions which made her ask for more and more.

There was one time where she said she wanted to eat a very rare fish. Ben immediately used all his connections to find one, but there was no fresh catch. So he went to the sea and searched for the fish himself.

He pulled every fish in the sea around him up using his gravity before he finally found of the 2 that he wanted. The fisherman who helped him find the location was dumbfounded when he released all the other fish because he didn't have any use for them.

As time passed, it wasn't just Mira's belly that got bigger, it was her whole body. She didn't look like someone with obesity, she just got chubby, a normal thing during pregnancy. It didn't matter to Ben though, as he thought she was still the most beautiful woman in the world.

Porlyusica also said that she is healthy, so there's no problem at all. It's just that her belly got bigger than normal. Ben knows the normal size from when Bisca was pregnant, but Mira's belly is bigger than that. He didn't think much about it because Porlyusica didn't say anything about it, so it must be nothing.

Then, after 9 months of pregnancy, Mira will finally give birth. Ben is waiting outside the room with Elfman, Wendy, Bella, Carla and others. Mira is inside the room in Porlyusica's tree house with the old woman, Lisanna, Lucy and Levy who help her with her labor.

Ben is walking back and forth nervously with a very worried expression. He can't calm down at all and that is why he needed to wait outside. The old woman initially allowed Ben to stay inside to support Mira, but he will just disturb the labor if he stays inside due to his nervousness.

Everyone tried to calm him down but he didn't hear anything. So they give up and just give him space to walk around. They are also quite nervous because labor is a hard task. So they hope it will go well and minutes later, they hear a sound.

"OEE! OEE!"

Ben's ears finally work and he said, "My baby!"
