Chapter 118 Ian: Auguste, please be my son!
In this world, things are never black and white.

Whether a villain or a hero, when everyone chooses to do something, there will be more or less reasons and excuses behind it.

Some of these reasons sound like sophistry, but some of them do make sense.

Therefore, in order to avoid falling into the logical traps of these powerful people, Ian always adheres to two principles.

First, the first principle...

Ian learned this from Ichigo Kurosaki, the hero of the well-known boys' hot-blooded manga "BLEACH". If you can't hear the principle, no matter how good your reasons are, no matter how eloquent your words are, even if you are the invincible Sosuke Aizen, I, Ichigo Kurosaki, will only say one sentence from beginning to end: "Sorry, I don't understand what you are saying!" Then I will rush forward with a Getsuga Sky Strike and it will be over.

Next, the second principle...

Ian learned this from the protagonist "General Duanmu" in the famous Chinese special effects drama "Armor Hero Nawa". The theories include "lazy talkers are not worthy of listening", "self-deprecating", "rotten oranges", etc. The simple logic can be summed up in one sentence: "What nonsense?! If you don't die, should I die?"

With the above two principles in hand, Ian is simply invincible.

Ian: "My heart and my actions are as clear as a mirror, and everything I do is just!!"

Just now, I punched the dog Preshito away, which was also a part of justice! !

then.

According to the initiator of this simulation, Ian spent a full eighty-four years since the death of Mavis, the first president of the Fairy Tail Guild in X696...

Finally, the old Preshito, who had evolved from a primary bootlicker to an ultimate bootlicker, fulfilled his wish and punched the young, cowardly Preshito away...

Ian finally had some free time to look at the baby Auguste in his arms.

"..."

August lay quietly in Ian's arms, very well behaved. He tried to open his eyes wide, carefully looking at Ian wearing a mask, without crying or making a fuss...

As for Ian, he was also looking at this incredible, miraculous child in his arms.

Yes, in fact, in Ian's opinion, Auguste itself is the most incredible miracle in the world.

Perhaps even the god Anxelram, who claimed to be the master of life, had never expected that the existence he cursed could actually give birth to life? !

Maybe it’s because of Mavis and Zeref who gave birth to him!
Auguste is a great master of magic power, independent of light and darkness, and an absolute genius who is born with innate knowledge...

It is no exaggeration to say that his talent surpasses any genius Ian has ever seen in his life.

Among them is the Black Mage Zeref, who stands at the pinnacle of the entire world of Eslanden and represents the true limit of what the concept of human beings can reach.

They will also be the twin pillars of the future Albares Empire!
One of Zeref's biggest trump cards to conquer the world.

But since Ian has traveled to this time period, Auguste can only become one of the biggest trump cards of their Mage Guild Fairy Tail to conquer the world.

"Ougast, did you know?!"

"Your mother is Mavis, the first president of the Fairy Tail Guild."

"She was killed by a very bad person!"

"You must protect her well in the future..."

Ian lifted Auguste high up, looked at the cute child in front of him, and said softly, "Well, educating children should start from childhood."

"..."

Auguste remained silent about this.

In fact, although no one had ever told Auguste, when he was delivered from Mavis' body by Precito, from the moment he opened his eyes and looked at the world, he knew clearly that his mother was Mavis, the founder and first president of the Fairy Tail Guild, and his father was a hated and wanted dark wizard. He also knew that his existence itself was not accepted by the world.

But, despite this...

Auguste also wants to live, this is the instinct of life.

But, despite this...

Auguste also wants to be loved, even if he is not accepted by the world.

But, will anyone really love him?!
Auguste, who had just been born, was confused. He blinked his big eyes and looked at the mysterious man in front of him. He couldn't help but have many questions in his mind? !

Perhaps, the man in front of him was just using him for his mother. Perhaps, this man in front of him would abandon him soon and leave him to fend for himself in this wilderness, just like Preshito who was knocked away by this mysterious man with a punch just now.

the other side.

Ian thought about it for a long time...

In the end, Ian was unable to continue speaking, and conveyed his thoughts of hating the dark magician Zeref and trying to protect Mavis to the child August.

In Ian's opinion, the child is innocent and should not be involved in the love-hate relationship between Jeref and Mavis, nor should he become a victim of the love between Mavis and Jeref.

Making Auguste an individual independent of Jeref and Mavis may be the happiest thing in the world for Auguste.

After all, Ian didn't want to see Auguste sacrifice himself at the very end of his life just to fulfill his father's crazy wish!

But it was just to be able to stand behind Mavis and weakly call her "Mother" and hope that no one would respond to this call.

Well, the memory that had already died turned into a sharp knife at this moment, ruthlessly piercing Ian's chest, causing Ian to give up his original idea of ​​training Auguste to become the twin pillars of the Fairy Tail Guild.

To put it bluntly, Auguste is just a child who lacks the love of his father and mother. Things that are not available at a young age will eventually haunt one for the rest of his life, even for the 'Magic King' Auguste.

So Ian decided to provide Auguste with everything he lacked.

“Kulala…”

"Be my son! Auguste!!"

So Ian laughed loudly, and said to Auguste, who was unable to answer him, some classic lines from a great pirate.

Well, if Lucy was beside Ian and Auguste at this moment, she would definitely look at Ian with her eyes wide open and complain loudly: "Hey, hey, hey! Mr. Ian, even your laughter has changed?!"

"..."

Although young, but born knowing everything in the world, Auguste's eyes lit up with incredible brilliance at this moment. He didn't know what happened to make Ian's mind change so drastically in such a short time? ! But there was one thing he clearly understood, that is, from today on, he also had a family.

Ever since.

After Ian figured everything out and adopted Auguste as his adopted son.

Ian brought Auguste to the nearest town to this wilderness.

"Buy this child fifty sets of suitable clothes, a year's supply of diapers, and a hundred cans of milk powder! Oh, and the vitamins and other things the child needs, all in units of years. Prepare them for me."

Ian entered the largest maternity and baby store in town and shocked everyone as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Eh?!"

"My dear guest, are you sure that the things you need are all from the same year?"

Upon hearing this, the manager of the maternity and baby store was shocked at first, then she trotted over to Ian, rubbing her hands while asking him questions.

To be honest, she thought she was hallucinating at first. If she wasn't, the customer in front of her must be a rare big client.

"determine."

Ian nodded slightly, indicating that the store manager in front of him had heard it correctly.

"What are you guys still standing there for?!"

"Why don't you hurry up and prepare everything according to the guest's request?"

So...

The store manager's face was filled with an excited smile. She called all the employees in the maternity and baby store together and prepared daily necessities for Auguste according to Ian's request.

"Okay~"

The shop assistants also had excitement on their faces. Once they completed Ian's order, each of them would probably get a commission of at least 10,000 yuan.

then……

With these clerks busy at work, about two hours passed, and the fifty sets of clothes, one hundred barrels of milk powder, a year's worth of diapers, baby wipes, vitamins and supplementary food that Ian needed were all packed into boxes and placed in front of Ian.

"Fifty sets of baby clothes, all handmade by top-notch craftsmen, will cost a total of 50,000 J! One year's supply of diapers, the best quality provided to you, including baby wipes, vitamin supplementary food, and milk powder, all added together, will cost a total of 500,000 J!"

The store manager held a calculator in his hand and after a while of typing, he came up with a number that would seem extremely exaggerated to ordinary people.

"Swipe your card."

Ian didn't say much and took out his bank card from Magic Bank.

There’s no way, it’s just RICH!

In fact, for these mages, as long as you are not on a mission, destroying towns or something like that, you will be super rich.

"Forehead……"

When the store manager took the bank card from Ian and tried to swipe it, but it failed, she fell silent.

"Did you get the wrong card, sir?!"

"If I remember correctly, this year should be X697, but the processing date on your card is X776."

After the store manager placed the bank card in front of her and looked at it carefully, her eyes trembled slightly and she had a bad feeling in her heart.

At the same time, the store manager reminded Ian in an extremely tactful tone that she did not say that the card in Ian's hand was a fake card. She hoped that Ian just made a mistake and was not deliberately playing a trick on her.

"Oh, right……"

"This year is X767, and my bank card was issued in X776, which means it is completely unusable now."

"If that's the case, I don't have any money..."

After Ian figured everything out, he snatched his bank card from the store manager and put it back in his trouser pocket.

"No money or anything..."

"Sir, please stop joking."

"We have even packed everything you need..."

"If you don't want it now, it will be a loss for us." The manager's body trembled slightly. She suppressed her anger and spoke to Ian with a forced smile.

"I know……"

"Just because I don't have money doesn't mean I don't want anything."

Well, Ian first used inequality to kill the store manager instantly.

"So let's put it this way. I'll take a loss today."

"According to the current market price, this magic crystal is worth about one million J..."

"You can go to the Magister's Guild, the Magic Item Shop, or the Magic Council ERA and exchange this for money!"

"As for the things, I'll take them first."

As Ian spoke, he lightly snapped his fingers, and immediately a shining magic crystal appeared in his hand. This was the reward he got after defeating an SS-level monster. To be honest, he felt bad about giving it away like this!

After thinking for a few seconds, Ian placed the magic crystal in the hands of the store manager in front of him. Then, Ian waved his hand, and all the daily necessities packed by the store manager and the staff disappeared without a trace.

"Well, everyone, thank you for helping me take care of Auguste and helping me organize the necessary supplies! That's it for now, we'll meet again if we're lucky enough..."

After Ian finished doing all this, he snatched Auguste, who was watching everything quietly, from the dazed clerk's arms, and then strode out of the maternity and baby store.

"Eh?!"

About a minute after Ian left, the store manager holding the magic crystal finally realized what was going on. She was furious and yelled, "Quick! Bring back that customer! No, he's not a customer at all! He's simply a robber! Bring him back to me now. If he doesn't come back, you won't get your bonus this month!"

"Chase!!"

The shop assistants, with dazed looks on their faces, immediately rushed out of the maternity and baby store. Unfortunately, the vast street was filled with people running fast, and Ian had long since disappeared.

"I'm sorry, we couldn't find the gentleman just now..."

The shop assistants returned to the house weakly. They looked down at the store manager and spoke weakly.

"What, sir?!"

"That guy is a complete, damned robber!"

"Go find the lord, the guards, and the Magic Council..."

"Make sure to catch that bastard!"

The store manager was almost mad, she yelled.

"But that gentleman doesn't look like a robber!"

"He was dressed very elegantly, especially the bank card he took out earlier. It was the highest-level bank card of the Magic Bank. I have seen it used by a magician before..."

"If the date wasn't wrong, I would have thought it was real! Maybe there was something wrong with the Magic Bank?!"

"Besides, didn't he leave you a magic crystal worth one million and ask you to sell it at the Council or the magic item store?"

In response to this, a young shop assistant spoke naively.

"He said it was a magic crystal. Is this the magic crystal?"

"If he says it's worth a million, does that mean it's really worth a million?"

"If it's really worth a million, you can just sell it..."

"I only want my 550,000, and the rest will be yours!"

As the store manager spoke, he threw the magic crystal in his hand to the clerk.

"All right!"

The clerk thought so and went to the most famous magic props store in town with the magic crystal in his hand.

"Miss, what can I do for you?!"

As soon as this clerk in the maternity and baby store entered the prop store, someone dressed as a magician came up to him! Well, it was the traditional magician outfit, with a pointed magic hat and a long magic robe, which was exactly the stereotype of magicians.

“I’m here to sell something…”

The clerk at the maternity and baby store looked at the 'magician' in front of her. As she spoke, she took out the magic crystal that Ian gave to their store as payment from her backpack and placed it in front of the man.

"Ah? Selling things..."

The 'magician''s face suddenly changed when he heard the voice. He didn't believe that the woman in front of him, who didn't even look like a magician, could come up with anything good.

It was not until the clerk of the magician's shop felt the extremely pure vitality and magic power in the magic crystal taken out by the clerk of the maternal and child store that his face suddenly changed and he said in shock: "This! This is unbelievable..."

"I'm sorry, young lady, please wait a moment. I need to let our master take a look."

The young man dressed as a magician said this, picked up the magic crystal in his hand, and rushed directly to the second floor of the magic props store.

Soon, a gray-haired old man, holding a magic crystal in one hand and a cane in the other, came to the store clerk with the help of a young man dressed in a robe and a magician, and asked kindly, "Miss, where did you get the magic crystal in your hand?!"

"Um, it's like this, I'm a clerk at the maternity and baby store in town..."

"Today, a customer dressed strangely came to our store. He brought a child with him. After buying a whole year's worth of goods, he found that his bank card at Magic Bank had been deactivated for some reason, so he used this magic crystal to pay for the debt."

The clerk of the maternity and baby store was stunned for a moment, and immediately told the old man everything that happened when Ian visited their store. As for the old man, he had a smile on his face. He had been listening, listening very attentively and listening very seriously.

"Excuse me, is there something wrong with my magic crystal?"

After the clerk in the maternity and baby store finished speaking, he looked at the dazed old man and asked weakly.

"No! No problem..."

"Prepare five million J for this beautiful lady!"

Upon hearing this, the old man shook his head repeatedly and spoke softly to the assistant beside him.

"Five million J?!"

At this moment, not only the clerk in the maternity and baby store was dumbfounded, but even the assistant who was dressed like a stereotypical magician was dumbfounded. They all thought they had heard it wrong.

"Go get ready."

The old man just glared at the assistant seriously, his voice cold.

"As ordered."

The assistant's face suddenly changed, and he immediately began to prepare money for the clerk in the maternity and baby store.

Not long after, a magic bank card with 5 million J was handed to the clerk of the maternity and baby store in the hands of the assistant Zhan Zhanweiwei.

"..."

The female clerk stared at the bank card in her hand with her eyes wide open. She couldn't believe that she had sold the seemingly ordinary magic crystal at a high price of 5 million J until she walked out of the magic props shop.

"Master, how can that magic crystal not be worth five million J?!"

After the female clerk left, the magic shop clerk, who was also the owner and the old magic mentor's assistant, came up to the old magic mentor and preached unwillingly.

"Haha, what do you know?!"

"That guest must be a very powerful magician!"

"Its strength is beyond our imagination..."

The old man has seen many magic crystals in his life.

In his early years, he even saw a magic crystal of an S-class monster that was hunted down by the King's Magic Knights and created by the court magician himself!
It is said that before being hunted by the Magic Knights sent by the king, the monster destroyed three or four towns on its own and killed more than 50,000 people in total. It was a complete killing machine!
However, if the old man remembered correctly, the magic crystal that had amazed him throughout his life seemed dwarfed by the enormous vitality and magic power contained in the magic crystal in his hand at this moment.

This made the old man unable to imagine how powerful this monster was before it turned into a magic crystal! You know, magic crystals like this kind of creature are made from the hearts of extremely powerful monsters, and the monsters cannot be dead for too long, the conditions are extremely strict!

At the same time, basically, the owner of the magic crystal, the person who made the magic crystal, is also the hunter of this magic beast. In other words, the person who took out this magic crystal must be so powerful that he can turn their towns and even some small countries into ruins with a wave of his hand.

This kind of strong man cannot be offended!
"I really want to see these powerful magicians in person!"

The old man murmured to himself that he dreamed of meeting the owner of this magic crystal.

the other side.

Ian built a villa on the top of a barren mountain not far from the town using clumsy wood modeling magic. It took him nearly an hour to build it.

At this moment, Ian didn't know that the magic crystal he casually took out in the small town had caused such a sensation.

In fact, the one million J that Ian mentioned was estimated based on the price eighty years later, when the S-class mages of the Fairy Tail Guild continued to fight inward and killed S-class and SS-class monsters on a continent-by-continent basis, causing a large amount of water to be injected into the market.

Ian forgot that the Magister Guild was just born at that time. Gildarts, the 'scum king' of Fairy Tail, who had almost completed the continent's ten-year mission and SS-level mission and was eyeing the hundred-year mission, was not yet born. Even Makarov, the greatest guild master of Fairy Tail, was only one and a half years old. Even the founders of Fairy Tail were only at the S-level (not considered a hot breed).

The magic of the continent of Ishgar has just entered an era of recovery, and there are very few strong people. That is why, in this era, magic crystals made from the hearts of powerful monsters have become increasingly precious.

"It's time for Auguste to drink milk. Only if he eats more can he grow faster~"

At this moment, Ian was holding Auguste and feeding her.

"Gululu..."

This is the third can of milk that Augusta has drunk today.

He really couldn't drink any more and was almost about to vomit...

Without her old father, Auguste almost starved to death in the wild.

Auguste, who had an old father, was almost starved to death.

It has to be said that Ian's love is too heavy and he can hardly digest it.

Indigestible in every sense of the word.

Well, there is a kind of hunger in this world...

Calling your old father, I think you should be hungry.
