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

Chapter 28 Natsu: Why am I always the one who gets hurt? !

Two days later.

"Dear passengers..."

"We have now arrived at the easternmost station of the train. I wish you a pleasant journey."

With the blessing of the conductor, Ian took Erza and Gray...

And Natsu, who had been on the train for two whole days and was almost completely broken, finally set foot on the land of the east.

Unlike the warm west, the east is still covered with ice and snow.

"The president gave us a total of one week to complete this crusade mission."

"However, after deducting the four days it took us to travel by train there and back, there were less than three days left."

"We don't have much time, so we have to hurry up..."

Ian was wearing a cotton coat and carrying a backpack. He looked in front of him, which was all covered with ice and snow. He saw white mountains and forests, and his breath was breathing out white air.

"understood."

Erza was wearing the same cotton coat as Ian. She was rubbing her red hands from the cold and breathing out continuously.

"Well, it's so cold..."

After getting off the train, Natsu gradually woke up when he was blown by the icy cold wind. He kept shivering and spoke tremblingly in the snow.

"Haha! I told you to wear more clothes."

Ian looked at Natsu, whose face was turning blue from the cold, and reluctantly used the magic of changing clothes to put a cotton jacket on him.

"Phew! He's alive..."

After Natsu put on his cotton clothes, his complexion finally returned to normal.

In fact...

Strictly speaking, this wasn't Ian's first time in the East.

After all, if we count the Ian simulator...

As for Gray's simulated timeline, this is Ian's second time setting foot in this world of ice and snow.

Therefore, Ian made preparations before coming and packed cotton clothes for everyone.

Well, this is Gray's hometown.

Compared to the last time Ian came here to save the Gray family, he was anxious and uneasy. Now Ian seemed incomparably calm and composed when he stepped here again.

"Back to the east again?"

Unlike Ian and the others who were wearing cotton clothes, Gray was still wearing slightly thin clothes and pants...

But his expression seemed to be somewhat emotional.

For Gray, who is an ice and snow magician, this little bit of coldness is nothing to him.

Besides, this was originally his hometown...

Deep down, he was already familiar with the frosty temperatures here.

Once again on his homeland, Gray not only did not feel the slightest bit of coldness, but instead felt warm all over…

"I just wonder if the villagers in the village are all right?"

Gray muttered to himself, frowning slightly.

"Although time is tight, as long as we act fast enough."

"I think we can probably spare a day or so to go back to the village and take a look..."

"To be honest, after all these years, I kind of miss those villagers."

Ian seemed to see the nostalgia in Gray's eyes...

So he was quite understanding and suddenly changed the subject, speaking out Gray's real thoughts.

"Ian, can we really go back?"

Gray said this, raising his little head with a hint of joy in his eyes.

Who doesn’t miss their hometown?!

To be honest, Gray has wanted to go back and take a look for a long time...

There just hasn't been a chance!
What Ian said just now was a huge surprise for Gray.

"Um……"

“But we have to act fast.”

"We must hurry up and complete the task..."

Ian said, taking out the map that Makarov had given him, which marked the locations where the wyverns appeared, and looked at it carefully...

If you want to enter this vast snowy mountain and look for the flying dragon, you must first determine the route. Otherwise, it is easy to get lost.

"Ian, let me guide the way. No one knows the snowy mountains better than me."

"After all, I grew up here!"

Gray was eager to try.

After Ian said that after completing the mission, if he had enough time, he could go back to the village, Gray's mind was no longer on the mission. He now just wanted to complete the mission quickly, eliminate those annoying wyverns, and then go back to the village to take a look.

"Okay, I'll leave it to you then..."

After Ian thought about it for a while, he felt that what Gray said made sense.

After all, this is Gray's hometown, and no one is more familiar with it than Gray...

So Ian handed the map in his hand to Gray.

"The marked location is not far from us."

"If we hurry up and start our journey now, we can get there in about six hours..."

After Gray glanced at the map in his hand, he had roughly figured out the location.

"Since you have already chosen a place, let's set off now without further delay."

Ian raised the corner of his mouth slightly and handed the opportunity to Gray with confidence.

"Let's go! Let's go..."

The resurrected Natsu changed his previous decadence on the train and shouted energetically...

In particular, he was very excited at the thought that he would soon be able to compete with top-level magical beasts like the wyvern.

Finally, he could show off his power as a dragon slayer. All the dragons in this world would be defeated by him, Natsu.

Although the wyvern and the dragon have nothing to do with each other, they just look a bit like a dragon...

That is, it is just a magical beast that was forcibly given the name of dragon in the place where the giant dragons are hidden on the continent of Ishgar.

"Let's go~"

Erza raised her pink little fist and waved it excitedly.

She was not excited because she would be able to see the wyvern soon.

She was simply so happy because she would be able to go fight monsters with Ian soon.

For Erza, it never mattered who she defeated.

As long as I can act together with Ian, it's enough~
It's too late to say it, but it will be soon...

After everyone made the decision, they headed straight towards the snowy mountains.

Although there were some kind-hearted people along the way who tried to stop Ian and the others from entering the mountains, and told them about the dangers of the mountains ahead...

But this situation ended after Ian showed the 'Fairy Tail' mark on his arm.

As we all know, magicians are a group of people who seek death!

Ian didn't know if it was his illusion, but he saw a hint of fear in the eyes of those who tried to dissuade him about the 'Fairy Tail' mark on his arm.

"call……"

The wind was howling and the snow was heavy...

But with Ian around, the wind and snow couldn't get close to them.

However, the snow on the ground was very thick, and everyone had to walk in shallow snow with one foot deep, which seriously affected their progress.

“Can you ski?”

After Gray led everyone forward for about a kilometer, he finally couldn't stand the feeling of moving forward at a snail's pace. He turned his head to look at Ian and others and asked.

"Simple!"

Ian nodded slightly. He had learned skiing professionally.

"My mother taught me."

Erza said that Irene taught her how to ski.

In fact, Erza herself has a strong learning ability. Even if Irene hadn't taught her, she would have learned it by watching Gray and others skate a few times.

"Skiing? What's that?"

Natsu was the only one who looked at everyone with a confused expression.

But that doesn't matter.

"It's easy if everyone knows how to ski."

Gray ignored Natsu and used Ice Shape Magic to create a set of ski equipment.

"Wait, what is skiing?!"

Natsu still asked everyone.

"Change up!"

Erza ignored Natsu and used the changing magic to put on a professional ski suit.

“So what is skiing?”

Natsu still looked confused and asked as he looked at everyone.

"boom!!"

Ian didn't say much. He looked to his side, used gravity magic, pulled up a big tree, and cut it into his own ski board.

Of course, Ian also made a set for Natsu.

"Well, what exactly is skiing?"

Just when everyone was fully armed and ready to ski...

Natsu asked, still confused.

"set off!"

As Ian finished speaking, he immediately activated his gravity magic as a propulsion force for everyone to move forward...

A purple magic circle appeared behind Ian and the others, emitting a brilliant light.

Ian, Erza, and Gray are like swans dancing on an icy lake or eagles flying between snow-capped mountains, their postures are quite elegant...

"what!!"

Only Natsu let out a shrill scream...

He accidentally fell to the ground, and with the help of gravity magic, he gradually rolled into a huge snowball, rushing around in the snow and moving forward rapidly.

"father……"

On the waves of ice and snow, Erza turned her head slightly and looked at Natsu who was rolling bigger and bigger in the snow behind her. She couldn't help but look at Ian and asked softly: "Ian, aren't we being too cruel to treat Natsu like this?!"

"No! Natsu is the first generation dragon slayer mage."

"No one knows better than me how to train the first generation of dragon slayer magicians..."

"Only through inhuman training can the full potential within Natsu be unleashed."

"You have to know that Dragon Slayer Magic was originally invented to fight giant dragons. What is this little hardship to Natsu?!"

Ian's words make sense.

Yes, he did all this to train Natsu, and it shows his care and love for Natsu.

"It's exactly the same as what mother said."

When Erza heard this, sparkling little stars immediately appeared in her eyes.

Ian had said the same things to her that Irene had said to her.

At this moment, Erza finally understood Ian's good intentions and thought to herself, "As expected of a father, you are always thoughtful!"

"Fortunately, I'm not some dragon slayer mage."

Gray, who had been leading the way in front of everyone, accidentally heard the conversation between Ian and Erza behind him. He suddenly felt fortunate that he was not a dragon slayer magician.
