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

Chapter 125 How many children does Ian have? Erin: No, I just love being a mother, don’t I?!

"What is this sound?!"

Ian trembled slightly when he heard the voice.

For Auguste, perhaps it has been more than 60 years...

But to Ian, their separation was just a matter of moments.

Therefore, Ian definitely didn't hear it wrong...

After all, this was the voice of a grown-up boy whom Ian had raised with great difficulty for fifteen years.

For a moment, Ian's slight feeling of tipsiness brought by the 96-degree water of life disappeared completely in an instant in this seemingly ordinary call that contained countless emotions. He turned his head and saw a young man in white, looking at him with red eyes.

"Ougast..."

Ian looked at the person, his mouth slightly raised, he said the name of the person without any hesitation! Yes, the uninvited guest who suddenly broke into the first floor hall of the Magician Guild Fairy Tail was the "Magic King" Augustus who had been separated from Ian for more than 60 years and came to Fairy Tail to find his relatives.

"Father, I miss you so much."

August looked at Ian's face, gently wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and used the plainest words to express the most sincere feelings in his heart.

Although, after so many years, Auguste is no longer the weak child who would face life-threatening danger if abandoned in the wild. He is now one of the two regents of the Albares Empire, the strongest country in the world of Eslanden! He is a person of substantial power, second only to one person and above hundreds of millions of people.

At the same time, he is the only one in the three major worlds who has cultivated the three major killing magics, namely, destroying gods, destroying evil, and destroying dragons, to the pinnacle!

On the basis of killing magic, he also practiced black magic and white magic, as well as a series of conventional and lost magic. He was praised by the world as the one who knows all magic in the world and the 'Magic King' who stands at the pinnacle of all magic.

At this moment, Auguste, no matter his identity or strength, was beyond doubt. He was the existence standing at the top of the Eslanden world, a great master of all magic! A master of great magic power that no one could rival.

In fact, Auguste is considered by Irene, the 'Mother of Dragon-Slaying Magic', to be the only one in the three realms of Eslandon, Elentia and Edlas who can fight head-on with the invincible 'Black Dragon King' Acnologia.

But even so, he was still that fifteen-year-old boy in front of Ian.

Auguste always remembered that Ian took him in without hesitation on the day when Preshito abandoned him, and taught him the truth of life! Without Ian, there would be no Auguste today.

Therefore, when Auguste saw Ian again, the emotions in his chest could no longer be controlled, and his tears kept rolling down, and no matter how he wiped them away, he couldn't stop them.

"It's strange, it seems like there's sand in my eyes."

Auguste's voice was tearful. He tried his best to control his emotions, but unfortunately he couldn't.

"Ougast, you have worked really hard these years."

Ian looked at Auguste who was crying non-stop. He had a smile on his face and his eyes seemed to be a little red. Without much hesitation, he stood up from his seat and took Auguste into his arms. He stroked her head gently, just like he did when Auguste was young, and comforted her in a gentle tone: "Ougast, it has been sixty years, and you have grown up! You are no longer the little brat who needs your father's protection. Your father is really relieved to see you again. From now on, this world is big, and you can travel freely under the sky and sea."

"Father, I am already very strong..."

"Become stronger than you think."

"So from today on, I will protect you!"

With Ian's gentle comfort, Auguste finally calmed down from the excitement of seeing his father Ian again after so many years...

Well, no matter what, Augustus is over eighty years old after all, and his character is no longer the same as that of the fifteen-year-old him.

Over the years, he has grown a lot and matured a lot. He has learned that as a person in a high position, he should not show his emotions on his face.

At the same time, after so many years, Auguste was no longer confused. He already knew clearly in his heart what he wanted.

He just wants his father and his sincere family to live well.

At the same time, anyone in this world who intends to overthrow his home, hurt his family, and destroy his happiness will be regarded as an enemy by him, and he will eliminate them one by one with his own hands.

"protect me?"

"Hahaha! Augustus, you really look down on your father too much."

"When did your father need your protection?"

"You're not the only one who's become stronger over the years!"

"Your father, I have never slacked off for a single day in these years. I have been practicing hard every day! To be honest, your father is very powerful now..."

In Ian's eyes, Auguste seemed to be the child who had not grown up. He patted Auguste's shoulder gently and spoke with a smile.

"I know, Father."

Upon hearing this, August could only smile helplessly. His father was really something. After so many years, he was still so stubborn.

"Ian..."

It was a touching moment when Ian and Auguste, the father and son, finally recognized each other after many years.

Gildarts, who had been sitting next to Ian since the beginning, drinking and chatting with Ian at the Fairy Tail bar, seemed to have discovered something extraordinary...

Gildarts carefully leaned close to Ian's ear and asked softly, "Who is this child? Did I hear correctly? He seemed to call you father? Do you have other children besides Erza and Elle?"

"Oh, come to think of it, I had totally forgotten..."

"Let me introduce you briefly. This is my son Auguste."

"He is no ordinary person, he is a true magic genius..."

"An even more talented person than Gildarts."

"His strength is terrifying. Even I am far from being his opponent."

"Let Auguste tell you the details himself!"

After being reminded by Gildarts, Ian suddenly remembered that he seemed to have not introduced Auguste's identity to everyone present.

So, Ian put his arm around Auguste's shoulders and loudly announced to everyone in the hall on the first floor of the Fairy Tail Guild that Auguste's true identity was his son.

However, I wonder if it was the illusion of the people present? They always felt that Ian's words when introducing Auguste were full of boasting, no matter how they listened.

It was as if Ian was very satisfied and glad that Auguste was his son.

"Hello everyone, I am Ian's son, August..."

"I'm really sorry. I only came to visit everyone in the guild after my father joined the Fairy Tail Guild for such a long time. But this is also related to the fact that my workplace is too far away..."

"Oh, I forgot to introduce my workplace! I'm currently working at the World Territory Reconstruction Co., Ltd. (a company that destroys other countries' territories, incorporates them into its own territory, and rebuilds them) in Alakidacia, the western continent."

"If you are interested in the Western Continent, you can visit there anytime. I may not have much to say in Ishgar, but in the Western Continent, Alakidacia, I still have some social status."

Augustus was well educated by Ian. He never had the habit of lying since he was a child, just because Ian said that good children never lie...

But Auguste couldn't reveal that he was one of the two most brutal regents in the Albares Empire. This would easily cause a lot of unnecessary trouble for his father Ian...

Especially the Fairy Tail Guild Hall is a mixed crowd, there are often reporters from magic magazines invited by Makarov to promote the Fairy Tail Guild, as well as some paparazzi who sneak in to find interesting materials. Once these reporters and paparazzi know that he is the regent of the Albareth Empire, it will become a "explosive" news, and if not handled properly it will become a diplomatic issue of a major power, so he used a few very euphemistic words to explain his identity.

"Eh?!"

"This boy is actually Ian's son?"

"World Land Reconstruction Co., Ltd.? What kind of company is this? Civil engineering?!"

As Ian finished speaking...

The entire Fairy Tail Guild Hall fell silent, and all the Fairy Tail members present had only one question in their minds: "Ian actually has another son?"

"That's really weird, why do we need to use 又?!"

"Well, none of this really matters..."

"The important thing is, who is Ian's new son born to? Do Ian and Selene know about this?"

"If you don't know, one mistake can turn into a world-class disaster!"

As the Fairy Tail mages thought so, their faces suddenly turned pale. When they thought that Irene and Selene would join forces to attack them and settle accounts with Ian, the "scumbag", and eventually implicate them, they all showed expressions of agony.

Well, as the magicians of the Fairy Tail Guild, they really have a hard time~
"I say, Brother Ian..."

"You and Gildarts, there's enough of you two."

"How many women do you two have out there?"

"And how many illegitimate children?!"

After Kana learned that August was Ian's son, she became numb and looked at Ian and Gildarts speechlessly!
It can be said that these are the two major unsolved mysteries of the Fairy Tail Guild.

The first of these is, how many women does Gildarts have out there?

The second thing is, how many children does Ian have out there? !

"These two guys are really hopeless..."

"The reputation of the Fairy Tail Guild in the Kingdom of Fiore has never improved because of Ian and Gildarts!" "Isn't it?!"

"Can you guess why Ian and Gildarts are nominated at the Holy Ten meeting every year, but fail in the Holy Ten election every year?"

"It's not because they are not strong enough, but because the Council believes that Ian and Gildarts are simply unable to set a positive example for the mages on the continent."

For a moment, many magicians in the guild complained in their hearts.

Meanwhile, on the second floor of the guild.

"and many more……"

"Could this magic power be?!"

"That's right, this time it's definitely correct..."

"This chaotic magic power belongs neither to darkness nor to light..."

"It is the magic power controlled by Mavis' child who was immediately adopted by you after I abandoned him in the wild."

Preshito, who was originally bragging about his experiences over the years to Volod and Yuri, suddenly looked pale after feeling the magic power released by Auguste. After all, this was something he would never forget in his life. It was the nature of magic controlled by Mavis's child.

The only difference from before is that this magic power, after being separated from him for more than 80 years, has become many times stronger than when the child was just born! It has even reached the point where he, who claims to be the strongest black magician in the Ishgar continent after Zeref, can no longer feel any resistance in his heart.

"Could it be that Mavis' son is here to seek revenge on me?!"

Preshito was thinking secretly in his mind, his forehead was already covered with cold sweat, he was extremely panicked, it seemed that he was thinking of a way to break the impasse.

However, just as Preshito was stunned, he suddenly made a shocking discovery that Mavis's child came to the Fairy Tail Guild not to cause trouble for him, but to find his father, and the father of Mavis' child was none other than Ian.

"what?!"

"Why is this happening?"

For a moment, Preshito was dumbfounded.

No matter how you look at it, Mavis's child should have nothing to do with Ian?! After all, Ian was so young, and the time didn't even fit.

and many more……

Just when Preshito was thinking that Ian was too young and the time didn't match, he suddenly thought of something, frowned, and muttered to himself, "Something's wrong. No one in this guild seems to know how old Ian is. We just subconsciously think that Ian is younger? But what if Ian is an immortal old monster? Just like the black magician Zeref? Could it be..."

For a while.

Preshito seemed to have caught Watson.

Countless details that have puzzled Preshito over the years now flashed through Preshito's genius brain one by one.

Finally, Preshito seemed to have come to an astonishing conclusion: "Could it be that the clown senior back then was Ian himself?!"

"But, that's not right..."

“There are still many things I don’t understand.”

Preshito didn't dare to make his bold guess known to others. This guess was so shocking that even he was frightened! He frowned, his eyes flashed with doubt, and he kept thinking. In fact, he still had a lot of things he didn't understand.

"Strange, that boy..."

"Why do I always feel so familiar?!"

"Like I've seen him somewhere before?"

"But I can't remember it at all..."

"Is it because I'm a ghost now?!"

At this moment, Mavis, who had been sleeping in the basement of the guild, seemed to sense something. She suddenly woke up, rubbed her sleepy eyes, and came to the lobby on the first floor.

When Mavis, with a hazy face, saw Auguste communicating with Ian in the guild hall, she felt a sharp pain in her chest for some reason, as if the infinite emotions she had hidden were exploding in her body...

The meaning of the eight characters "Blood is thicker than water" and "Mother and child are connected by heart" were fully demonstrated on Mavis at this moment. Although Mavis had never seen Auguste, and she didn't even know that such a person as Auguste existed, she still clearly realized that Auguste was an extremely important person to her. To her, he was as important as her relatives in the Fairy Tail Guild.

"..."

August, who was being held by Ian's shoulders and constantly showing off and introducing himself to everyone in the guild, seemed to feel something at this moment. He turned his head and looked in the direction of Mavis' soul. He smiled faintly and said to himself, "Seeing that mother has achieved her wish! She has created the world's number one magician guild, and I am relieved! Although mother has never taken care of me, I don't hate you. After all, you don't know of my existence. You don't need to know of my existence, just treat me as an existence like everyone else in the Fairy Tail Guild, that's enough!"

Well, after a long time, Auguste had already let go of many things.

"Strange."

Mavis murmured, she touched her wet eyes, for some reason, she just wanted to cry at this moment, she wanted to shed tears inexplicably.

"Mavis..."

At the same time, Preshito, who was on the second floor of the guild, felt a sudden pain in his heart after seeing Mavis crying. He wanted to confront Mavis directly and tell her that Auguste was Mavis' child, but he couldn't do it, because if he did so, he would have to explain why he abandoned Auguste in the first place.

"hateful!"

"Why does my heart still hurt so much?"

"If, if..."

"Is it me who adopted Mavis' child?"

"Then will the current situation be different?!"

"If I hadn't abandoned Mavis's child, then now Mavis' child should call me father! Then, will I also have the opportunity to stand closer to Mavis?!"

Preshito didn't know why. Even though he had placed the devil's heart in the basement of the Fairy Tail Guild and cast the highest defense spell on it, his chest still hurt so much that he almost couldn't breathe.

pain! It hurts so much!

At this moment, the world where only Lao Pu was injured was born again.

Well, Ian had obviously completed the simulation of Preshito's commission almost perfectly, but after the commission was completed, Preshito was the only one who was injured!
Lao Pu is either in the process of breaking through the defense or on the way to breaking through the defense.

"Father..."

"Excuse me? What is your relationship with Lord August?!"

While Ian, in a slightly tipsy state, was promoting his good son August to everyone in Fairy Tail, Erza, who had been watching all this silently beside the mission board, widened her eyes?!

Wait, what on earth is going on?
The one who, along with my mother, Lady Irene Belserion, was known as the twin pillars of the Albares Empire in the distant western continent of Alachidasia, the empire's 'regent', and was called by my mother as the strongest ally and the most powerful rival, the 'magic king' Auguste, was actually also my father's child? !

It's just... incredible.

"Oh, right!"

"I forgot to introduce you brothers and sisters to each other."

"Eruza and Elle, this is my youngest son, August, and your younger brother."

Ian first introduced August's identity to Erza and Ellie.

"Ougast, the two people standing in front of you are my eldest and second daughters, Erza and Elle."

"You should call them sisters."

"Come and call me sister."

Immediately afterwards, Ian introduced the identities of Erza and Ellie to Auguste.

"Good morning, Erza and Elle~"

When August heard this, he looked at Erza and Elle politely, and with a smile on his face, he called Erza and Elle "sister".

To be honest, Auguste was not too surprised that Ian had a child other than him! After all, his father was so outstanding that he would definitely have an outstanding woman who was worthy of Ian.

However, when Augustus saw Erza's face clearly, he was still stunned. He couldn't believe his eyes and said to himself, "No, wait a moment! Let me think about it. If I am not mistaken, this girl with long crimson hair who appeared in front of me, could she be Erza Belserion, the daughter of Irene?"

"Wait, if that's the case, Erza calls Irene mother and Father-sama father. Doesn't that mean Father-sama and Irene-sama are husband and wife?"

"In other words, from now on, I have to call Lady Irene mother? Incredible."

For the first time, Auguste realized what it meant to be a small world, with everyone around him being an acquaintance.

"Eh?"

"That 'Magic King' Augustus called me sister?"

At the same time, Erza was also numb at the moment, her eyes widened and a look of disbelief appeared on her face.

"In other words, from today onwards, Auguste must address me as Mother? This is really interesting."

In the Western Continent, in the Albares Empire, Irene, who was using a remote communication crystal ball to observe the movements of Ian, Erza, and Elly, was shocked to discover that she was going to be a mother! She actually ate the melon on herself.
