Fairy Tail: Marrying the Dragon Slayer Queen Irene at the Beginning

Chapter 181: Lucy is socially dead! Lucy: You are the new member of the guild, right? Ian: What did you say?
"boom!"

The world of Elentia.

Along with it, an endless wave of magic power wrapped around him like a flame...

Ian slowly opened his eyes. After several years of settling down...

Ian finally brought back the huge amount of Dragon's Tears, the national treasure of the Kingdom of Fiore, which was taken away by the invincible 'Black Dragon King' Acnologia...

At the Dragon King Festival four hundred years ago, the resentment of the dragons killed before their death transformed into magic power and merged with himself.

This powerful magic, which inherited the resentment of the dragon clan and spanned four hundred years, once helped Ian to improve several levels!

It even allowed Ian to reach the 'Dragon King level'.

And he is not an ordinary dragon king like the Thunder Dragon King Alexion...

Instead, it is enough to stand shoulder to shoulder with the 'Five Divine Dragons' that have wreaked havoc on the northern continent of Kiltina for hundreds of years, and is not inferior to the True Dragon King level of 'Flame Dragon King' Ignir.

Right now, it seems that all Ian needs to be crowned as the true king is the Dragon King Festival.

However, this final step to becoming king seemed as difficult as ascending to heaven to Ian...

He scratched his cheek gently and murmured, "I'm still no match for the invincible 'Black Dragon King' Acnologia~"

Well, even though Ian has officially entered the realm of the 'Divine Dragon', he has only finally reached the same level as the invincible 'Black Dragon King' Acnologia, that's all.

But there are strong and weak in the same rank! As a 'magic dragon' that can devour all magic, Acnologia's innate attributes overwhelm all other dragons of the same rank.

So what to say?!
Ian finally said, "In a world where everyone uses magic to fight, isn't it a bit ridiculous that the final boss is immune to magic?"

"Father, I just felt the fluctuations of magic power you released unintentionally! So, if I'm not mistaken, you should have successfully entered the Dragon King level?! Now you are no less powerful than Mother Irene and Mother Selene."

Just when Ian was sitting there, he found that after officially entering the "Dragon" level, he still couldn't beat the invincible Acnologia, and he was confused...

With a flash of golden light, Ian's adopted son, Augustus, also known as the 'Magic King', came to Ian.

Augustus, after only glancing at the magical aura around Ian that was strong enough to overwhelm a 'shield-level' mage...

He was very sure that Ian in front of him had successfully absorbed the Dragon's Tears and entered the 'Divine Dragon' level, officially becoming a member standing at the top of the pyramid of the Eslanden world.

"Not inferior to Irene and Selene."

"But you didn't say a word about yourself?!"

"You brat..."

Ian glanced at Auguste and smiled softly.

Well, Ian naturally heard the hidden meaning in Auguste's words.

Although Ian's strength is no weaker than Irene and Selene...

But compared to him, Auguste, it's a little bit worse.

"Hey! Auguste~"

"What a pity!"

"Although I have tried my best as a father, it seems that my talent is limited. With my current strength, I still cannot defeat that monster Acnologia~"

"So I'll leave the fight against Acnologia to you."

Well, in line with the principle that nothing is difficult in the world as long as you are willing to give up, Ian unceremoniously gave the task of fighting a decisive battle with Acnologia, an invincible magic-immune monster, which should have fallen on him, to the equally invincible August.

Of course, I can't beat Acnologia.
But at the critical moment, Ian was still confident that he could hold down Acnologia's arms.

Seriously, what happened to the magic immunity? !

At worst, we can just fight.
In the original novel, when the 'Flame Dragon King' Igneel knew that the situation was hopeless and that any attack would be ineffective against Acnologia...

Didn't he still manage to exchange Acnologia's arm with his remaining body?!
What if everyone is no match for Acnologia in a fair one-on-one duel? ! Then the mages of the Fairy Tail Guild can only resort to a just group fight.

My heart and my actions are as clear as a mirror. Everything I think and do is just!

Group fighting is also just.

"Father, didn't I tell you this a long time ago?!"

“You don’t have to try so hard~”

"Don't worry, just wait quietly in the back with the two mothers."

"Let me deal with all those who are hostile to you."

"After all, although it may sound presumptuous to say so, I am indeed the strongest at the moment."

Auguste looked at Ian with a calm expression and a smile, and spoke in a declarative tone.

"Looking for a fight~"

Hearing this, Ian stretched out his hand and hit Auguste's head hard, saying seriously, "I think you have grown wings. You even dare to speak rudely to your father."

"Look at what you said~"

"I'm just stating a fact."

August touched his red and swollen forehead with a feeling of grievance. He looked at Ian and spoke confidently.

"okay."

"Don't keep saying, 'I am the strongest'."

"It's particularly unlucky."

In response, Ian looked at Auguste and educated him seriously.

Well, even if everything Augusta said was right and Augusta was indeed the strongest among them, it was still not appropriate to say this.

The previous guy, who claimed to be the strongest, has been cut in half and is now only 2.5.

amount……

If that's the case, it seems that the guy who claimed to be the strongest god of death in a thousand years couldn't escape the fate of being beheaded in the end.

Therefore, it is better to be low-key in life, and don’t always talk about being the strongest. It is too unlucky.

Speaking of which, if Auguste and Acnologia really go to war, wouldn't it be the strongest dragon slayer mage in modern times vs the strongest dragon slayer mage in history? !
This plot seems familiar?!

Ian shuddered as he thought about this, with fine beads of cold sweat on his forehead. He muttered, "Sure enough, if Acnologia really attacks, we still have to attack in groups! We can't fight in groups, and we can't go up one by one to die."

Yes, at this moment, Ian had already made a decision. Facing the invincible Acnologia, Ian chose the most stable way of playing, instead of a guy named "Borrow from Next", who chose the most popular and hottest way of playing.

"Father, you have successfully advanced. Where are you going to go next?!"

"I mean, are you planning to return to the Western Continent, the Albares Empire, to look for Mother Irene?"

"Or should we go to Black Moon Mountain and wait for Mother Selene to come back?!"

"Oh, I forgot to tell you! Mother Selene has been causing trouble on the northern continent of Kiltina..."

"She said that she has found a way to deal with the water dragon Melkokobia, so in the next few days, the entire Elentia world will be protected by me."

Auguste couldn't help but be curious about Ian's next move, he looked at Ian and asked.

“There is only one answer.”

"Then we need to go back to Fairy Tail first."

Ian gave Auguste his answer without even thinking about it.

Well, the Elentia world is protected by Ogast, the Albares Empire is protected by Irene, and the northern continent of Kiltina has Selene and Eleftheria...

At present, among all the forces belonging to their camp, only the Fairy Tail, the wizard guild on the continent of Ishgar, does not have the top combat force to protect it...

So Ian thought so and decided to go back to Fairy Tail.

"I understand."

"Well, father, it looks like we have to say goodbye for now."

"I still need to continue to protect the world of Elentia until Mother Selene returns! So, let's meet again at the Magician Guild Fairy Tail~"

After Augustus thought for a moment, he looked at Ian and said so.

"Let's meet at the Magician's Guild Fairy Tail, bye."

Ian smiled, patted August's shoulder gently, and then used the 'Water Wings' magic and disappeared in the world of Elentia.

"A battle against Acnologia?!"

After Ian disappeared, August tilted his head slightly, his eyes flashed with a fierce look, and he murmured to himself: "I am more curious, is the dragon that can devour everything stronger? Or is the dragon that can copy everything and use everything stronger?!"

"So, between me and Acnologia, who is the strongest being in the world of Eslandon?!"

Augustus was extremely looking forward to the fateful battle between him and Acnologia.

In this regard, it was known as the strongest dragon clan four hundred years ago!
Four hundred years ago, before Acnologia was born as a dragon slayer, he reigned as the Dragon King and was the strongest person in the world of Eslandon...

Igneel, the Fire Dragon King, said, "Hey, newbie! If you want to challenge that bastard Acnologia, then get in line! You're not the only one in this world who's dreaming of becoming the 'strongest'!"

the other side.

The world of Eslandon.

The Kingdom of Fiore.

The town of Magnolia.

In front of the gate of the Magicians Guild Fairy Tail.

"Whoo~"

"It's been a long time since I last saw FAIRY TAIL~"

Ian looked at the ancient guild in front of him. On the quaint door and the door frame were written the words FAIRY TAIL, which were so old and faded that they looked like they had walked out of the years. The corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he felt quite emotional.

"Hey~
"You look like a stranger. What are you doing standing in front of our guild gate?"

Just as Ian was looking at the gate of his own guild, which had not changed in years, with a look of emotion on his face, a pleasant female voice came from behind Ian, interrupting his thoughts.

"Um?!"

Ian was stunned for a moment, then slowly turned his head and saw a plump girl with long blonde hair, who was looking at him excitedly and explaining something to herself.

"Ah! I see. I see. Are you also a newbie planning to join us, the Magician Guild Fairy Tail?!"

"You are too nervous to enter the world's number one magician's guild, right?!"

"Haha, I understand, I understand!"

"After all, I just experienced something similar to you not long ago! At that time, I was also scared by the name of Fairy Tail. I was so nervous, so nervous..."

"However, if you are really afraid to enter the guild because of nervousness, then please rest assured! The magicians of our Fairy Tail Guild are all warm-hearted and kind people."

The girl didn't notice the strange look in Ian's eyes at all. She was excited and talking to herself.

"correct……"

Just as the girl was talking to Ian in a loud voice, she suddenly seemed to remember something. She looked at Ian with a guilty look on her face and said, "Sorry! I was talking so much just now that I forgot to introduce myself."

"My name is Lucy Heartfilia. I am a member of Fairy Tail, the world's number one wizard guild."

"My current goal is to become the number one celestial mage in Ishgar, and I am working hard to achieve this goal."

"Of course, up to now, not much has been achieved."

Yes, this lovely girl who was holding Ian's hand and talking about her dreams and future was none other than Lucy Heartfilia...

At this moment, she was very excited because she had finally found a newcomer in the Fairy Tail Guild who was newer than her. She was finally going to become a senior.

Well, since Lucy had never seen Ian's appearance...

So she mistakenly thought that Ian, who looked very young, was a new member who was about to join the club.

"You'll make it, Lucy."

Hearing this, Ian smiled gently at Lucy and praised her generously.

"Eh?!"

"What did you say?"

Lucy was in high spirits, but when she heard Ian's words, she seemed not to have heard them clearly, so she was slightly stunned, and there was a hint of doubt in her eyes when she looked at Ian.

"I said……"

"You're going to make it Lucy."

"In the near future, you will become the number one celestial mage in the Kingdom of Fiore, and even in the continent of Ishgar."

"In fact, one day in the future, you may even become the most powerful Star Spirit Mage in the history of the Eslandon world."

Ian looked at Lucy and made a prediction.

"Forehead……"

"Thank you, thank you so much for believing that I will succeed!"

"To be honest, even though this is the first time we meet, I feel like we should have met earlier."

Lucy seemed to have never received such direct praise before. She blushed slightly and her movements became more reserved.

Well, it was just a little praise from Ian. Lucy, this child, has become obsessed with being an idol. She fantasizes that one day in the future, she will become the number one celestial mage in Eslanden, so she can't let go.

If you are strong, you should be more reserved.

cough cough...

"Haha~"

"You don't need to thank me."

"I'm just telling the truth."

"Lucy, you have to believe in yourself. In fact, you are very good. You should pay more attention to your own strengths and don't always look down on yourself..." Hearing this, Ian smiled at Lucy and spoke to her in the tone of an experienced person. Well, to be honest, in Ian's eyes at this moment, Lucy, as a newcomer to Fairy Tail, is his outstanding junior.

"really?"

Lucy was stunned for a moment. She didn't know why, but she always felt that this young man in front of her, who looked about the same age as her, gave her the feeling that he was her elder...

The words he said were inexplicably friendly, as if everything he said was factual, which made her feel convinced and fond of him.

"Cough cough..."

"I'm sorry! I haven't been praised for so long that I'm a little confused~"

"Anyway, since you are here to join our Wizard Guild Fairy Tail, I won't keep you any longer, come in quickly~"

After a brief moment of daze, Lucy suddenly shook her head vigorously and smiled softly.

She was also sincere. The young man in front of her said only some polite words, but she was shameless and took them all seriously.

Now, the other party would definitely think that she was a person without any sense of propriety. The image of a senior that she had worked so hard to establish was destroyed just like that. It was really embarrassing...

"Haha~"

Ian didn't explain anything about this. He just pretended to be a newcomer and gave Lucy the full satisfaction as a senior.

After Lucy and Ian entered the Fairy Tail Guild Hall, they went to the bar deep inside the guild. It was a busy time and Lisanna was delivering drinks back and forth between the bar and the hall.

As for Makarov, the guild president, he was called by the Magic Council ERA to write a self-criticism after a long absence because the auction of the president of the Magician Guild of the Kingdom of Fiore had such a huge impact last time. He is not in the guild at the moment.

Makarov: "So, this auction for the president of the Magister Guild that shook the magic world of Ishgar was organized by the first president, Mavis..."

"The money was eventually distributed to the guild members. Why was it me who went to the Magic Council ERA to write a self-review?!"

In response, Preshito said: "Shut up! Makarov, are you saying that you are not wrong? The one who is wrong is Mavis? Are you kidding? Mavis, the cutest girl in the world, will never make a mistake. If she does, it is your fault."

Makarov: "..."

Well, after Preshito's operation, Mavis was happy, the members of Fairy Tail got money, and the other major magician guilds redeemed their presidents...

Only Makarov, who had offended the presidents of the major magician guilds, was called to the Magic Council ERA by Preshito, the chairman of the council, to review his mistakes in public in order to silence the public.

This time, Makarov not only did not get any money, but also lost face and reputation.

For a moment, a world was created in which Makaroko was the only one injured.

"Sorry, I can only let you stay here for a while."

"I have already asked, it seems the president had something to do and went out this morning."

"As for the members who are responsible for keeping the guild seal on weekdays, they are busy at the moment."

"So you can only wait for a while. When everyone is not busy, I will help you inquire about the details of joining our Magician Guild Fairy Tail."

After Lucy had been busy for a while, she walked up to Ian with a bit of frustration and apology, and said helplessly. Well, originally Lucy was planning to show herself well in front of Ian, who was a newcomer.

"It's ok."

Ian looked at Lucy and smiled faintly. He was originally a member of the Fairy Tail Guild, so he was not in a hurry to join Fairy Tail.

Ian just sat here quietly, his eyes scanning the people in the guild hall, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.

Well, Wakaba and Makao, although they have learned magic from Uru, and with the help of the magic developer and Urrutia's second magic source...

He has reached the threshold of "Saint Ten", but still looks out of place. He is either drinking or talking about which girl is becoming more and more graceful.

Nob Lazaro, just like in the original book, was standing in front of the task board, seemingly thinking about what task he should do.

Speaking of which, he really didn't care that Mirajane often scolded him. Missions were something that were done, not seen...

If you keep searching but don't put it into practice, you will never grow in this life.

Vigitta Eco, after several years, finally returned to the guild, but he was still dancing like a ruthless dancing machine.

In Erza's words, "If you like dancing so much, why not become a dancer?! Or dance outside the guild!"

Marcus Aroze's strength has also improved a lot compared to the original novel...

It has reached the S-level standard of other Mage Guilds. If it were in the original timeline, the Spectre Overlord, he would be able to replace Loki and serve as the Earth Elemental.

However, because the strength of other people in the Fairy Tail Guild has increased more, he is still as decadent and self-abandoned as in the original timeline, and spends a lot of time on hosting.

Kana was still drinking so much that she didn't even notice him coming.

Because Lisanna was killed by Mirajane with one punch because of the Beast King and was successfully accepted by Elfman, she did not go to the world of Edlas as in the original timeline!

However, even if the Beast King was still alive, with Lisanna's current strength, she could easily kill the Beast King by herself? !
However, Lisanna did not continue to cultivate her identity as a magician like her sister Mirajane and brother Elfman...

Instead, she has carved out her own path as a guild staff member and professional model, just like Mirajane in the original timeline.

Or, in the original novel, after Lisanna died due to his own mistake, Milaje changed because he wanted to continue living in place of his sister Lisanna? !
In short, if Ian wanted to find fault, these Fairy Tail mages in front of him all had some problems to a greater or lesser extent...

Just as Erza said.

But, this is Fairy Tail!
We are not perfect.

We become perfect because of each other.

"Haha~"

Ian couldn't help but smile with relief when he thought of this.

"Um, you know?!"

"Don't look at the current situation. The members in the lobby of our Mage Guild Fairy Tail seem to be drinking and chatting, not acting like a proper Mage Guild."

“In fact, they are all very strong~”

However, Ian's smile scared Lucy.

Lucy thought Ian was disappointed and was planning to leave Fairy Tail.
After all, the first impression their Fairy Tail guild gave people was really bad.

Perhaps this is why there are always no new members joining their guild? !

"How strong?"

When Ian heard this, he turned to look at Lucy and asked with a smile in his eyes.

"I'm telling you..."

"Do you know Erza, the 'Fairy Queen'?"

"There is also the 'Demon' Mirajane, the 'Lehao' Lacusas, the 'Witch of Time' Urrutia, and the one who ranks first among the Ten Holy Magisters, Uru..."

"They are all members of our Magician's Guild Fairy Tail!"

"In addition, 'Fire Dragon' Natsu, 'Iron Dragon' Gajeel, 'Sky Priestess' Wendy, 'Miss Words' Levi, 'Fortune Teller' Cana, these famous magicians in the Kingdom of Fiore are also members of our guild!"

Lucy looked excited. She was like a fan leader, constantly recommending "I recommend" to passers-by and talking about the famous and powerful people in the Fairy Tail Guild.

"Clap clap~"

"Wow, that's amazing~"

Seeing this, Ian clapped his hands softly, and thoughtfully brought Lucy a glass of water, saying gently: "Are you thirsty? Drink some water and continue."

"Thank you."

"Tons, tons, tons..."

Lucy was indeed thirsty. She picked up the cup of water handed to her by Ian and drank it all in one go. Then she continued, "Also, Gray and Leon, known as the Ice Twins, and the 'Thunder Gods' who are famous in the kingdom, are all members of our Fairy Tail Guild~"

"Wow, your Magician Guild Fairy Tail is so powerful, isn't it?!"

Ian showed a look of shock, and deliberately echoed Lucy and performed.

"To tell you the truth."

"What I am going to say next is a secret within our Fairy Tail Guild. It is generally not told to outsiders. After you hear this secret, you must join us..."

When Lucy said this, she looked at Ian mysteriously.

"What secret?"

Ian asked curiously.

"In fact, the one who ranks first among the Ten Holy Magisters and is known as the No. 1 Magister of Ishgar, Ms. Uru Mirkovitch, is not the strongest Magister of our Fairy Tail Guild~"

Lucy said, subconsciously lowering her voice.

"is it?"

"Who is the strongest magician in the Fairy Tail guild?"

Upon hearing this, Ian lowered his voice like Lucy and asked.

“Actually, I haven’t seen that person either.”

"It is said that the other party has not appeared in the Fairy Tail Guild for many years."

“It’s quite mysterious.”

"But I have heard of his name..."

"I think his name is Yi, Yi..."

As Lucy spoke, a look of difficulty appeared on her face. She suddenly forgot the name of the Fairy Tail Guild's first magician.

"Is his name Ian Belserion?!"

Seeing this, Ian looked at Lucy and asked.

"Yeah……"

"That's the name, that's the name!"

"Sorry, I forgot the name in my excitement..."

"Let me tell you! I heard that this Ian Belserion, the strongest magician in the Fairy Tail Guild, is also the father of the famous 'Fairy Queen' Erza!"

"Besides that, I have heard many, many rumors about the magician named Ian Belserion in the Fairy Tail Guild."

"There is a saying that Ian has two wives, one of whom is a dragon! A real dragon that can fly and spit fireballs~"

"I don't know whether it's true or false..."

When Lucy said this, she paused. She seemed to have thought of something. She looked at Ian with a hint of doubt in her eyes and asked, "Speaking of which, how did you know the name Ian Belserion?!"

"Ha ha……"

When Ian heard this, he was amused by Lucy's confused look. He just used a little hint of magic, and Lucy confessed everything!
So, Ian couldn't help but ask back: "Come to think of it, Lucy, you just said so much, but you haven't asked my name yet?!"

"Forehead……"

"Well, I'm really sorry."

"I'm just so excited."

After hearing what Ian said, Lucy showed a hint of realization. She quickly apologized to Ian and asked, "By the way, what is your name?"

"My name is Ian."

"Full name is Ian Belserion."

Ian said, extending his hand towards Lucy and greeting her with a smile: "It's an honor to meet you, the new member of the guild, Lucy."

As for Lucy.

When Ian said his name was Ian.

"Hahaha……"

Lucy couldn't help but laugh, and complained in her heart: "What? This person is also called Ian? There are so many people named Ian in this world!"

As a result, when Ian revealed his full name, Ian Belserion, Lucy stopped laughing.

Instead, Ian laughed.

Well, the smile won't disappear, it will just shift.
Lucy's forehead was covered with cold sweat. She thought to herself, "Wait, wait a minute! What did this new guy say just now? He said his name is Ian Belserion? This is not just a simple coincidence of names, right?"

"Could the other party be Erza's father?"

"That's impossible! He looks about the same age as me..."

"What on earth is going on?"

Lucy was confused at the moment. She had no idea what was going on.

until……

"Father, why did you come directly to the guild?"

"You're sitting with Lucy. Do you know each other?"

After receiving the news from Auguste that Ian's retreat had ended and he had returned to the Fairy Tail Guild, Erza strode into the guild hall, locked onto Ian's figure among the members, came up to Ian and Lucy, and revealed Ian's identity.

Lucy no longer had any illusions. She was certain that the young man in front of her who called himself Ian was the legendary, elusive, and strongest magician in the Fairy Tail Guild.

"Haha~"

"Nothing. After seeing the new members of the guild, I had some conversations with them on a whim. Lucy is a really good kid, and she praised you guys a lot."

When Ian heard this, he looked at the grown-up Erza and smiled. He glanced at Lucy meaningfully and spoke softly.

"Oh, I really want to commit suicide! Is it too late to die now?"

When Lucy heard this, she gave a suicidal smile.

Well, so Lucy now truly understood what it felt like to buzz at someone's back for a long time in front of him.

This feeling made Lucy want to turn into an earthworm, burrow into the hard soil beneath her feet, and never come out again!
She, Lucy, is really difficult.
