Fairy Tail: The Three Sacred Magic

Inside the guild camp, Hal had just come to the side of the guild leader Makarov with Natsu on his back.

In the evening, the light of the bonfire shone on Makarov's face. He had put away the cynical smile he had when he came to the island, and sat quietly on the stone, staring at the flames with deep eyes.

"This brat, he's starting to make trouble again." Makarov's voice was low and a little tired.

"Ah, Natsu is like this, it's always been like this." Hal responded softly.

After hearing this, Makarov first laughed, and his laughter seemed a little lonely in the silent camp.

He looked at Natsu, whose dragon scales had not yet completely faded, and a complex emotion flashed in his eyes.

"Hal, I'm glad you're here. I can feel more at ease now." Makarov's voice suddenly lowered, with a helpless frankness,

"Old man, I'm actually a little scared, afraid that I can't protect you kids."

Hal was silent for a moment, a little interrupted by Makarov's sudden voice.

At this moment, Laxus also walked into the camp carrying Gray on his back.

The light of the campfire reflected on his cold face, softening it a little.

"Yo, they're all here." Laxus' voice was with his usual confidence and casualness.

"What's Gray like?" Makarov looked at the unconscious Gray on Laxus' back with some surprise.

"These guys have been working hard recently. It's just an exam, but they're so excited."

Although Laxus was a little helpless, he raised a smile at the corner of his mouth.

Makarov listened, the light in his eyes dimmed again, and his expression looked even more lonely.

"Old man, what are you thinking about?" Laxus noticed Makarov's mood and asked softly.

The camp was silent, with only the slight jumping sound of the bonfire burning echoing in the calm jungle.

"Anyway, old man, we are here with you." Laxus took a step closer, his tone was rare and gentle.

"It's time to change your old habit of sighing from time to time."

Makarov looked at this grandson who was once rebellious and refused to communicate with him with some surprise, and his heart was full of mixed feelings.

"I have also thought a lot recently." Laxus continued, with a thoughtful firmness in his tone.

"As for the guild, it doesn't matter if it's not so powerful, as long as I have enough power to protect the guild."

"That sounds like what you said, Laxus." Hal saw this and responded with a smile.

He also felt that the big brother of the guild had changed a lot recently.

Makarov listened to the two people's words, and the heavy burden in his heart seemed to be slightly relieved.

He sighed, and a trace of relief appeared in his expression: "Well, with you here, I may really be relieved.

After this exam, I will retreat behind the scenes."

"Are you going to resign as the president?" Hal asked with some surprise.

"Ah, it's time to enjoy my old age." Makarov's tone was relaxed, but his eyes flashed with an unnoticeable firm determination.

Laxus was silent for a moment, and finally said softly: "Well, you should have a good rest. It's not right to fool around with us young people every day."

After a while, Erza came over with Juvia and Lisanna.

"Perfectly completed the task, President!" Erza seemed confident.

"You little girl, did you overdo it again? I just felt a strong fluctuation of magic power." Makarov looked at the red-haired girl in front of him helplessly.

"President! Why did you suddenly start calling me by my childhood nickname? Are you feeling unwell again recently?" Erza didn't notice Makarov's reproach, but stepped forward with some worry.

"Okay, okay, there's nothing wrong with me. I'm fine. I'm just afraid that you're a bit immature to be the examiner because you don't care about anything when fighting with others." Makarov said helplessly

"President (｡･ω･｡), ​​I... how could that be possible?" Erza looked away.

"Puff——" Hal couldn't help laughing at this, and helped Erza out of trouble.

"It's okay, Erza has been like this since she was a child' Laxus also came over with a smile.

"Embarrassing' Erza was a little shy when she saw this. She, who always believed in her strength, now acted like a little girl.

Lisanna, who was standing by, also went to prepare lunch on her own. Juvia looked at Gray, who had fallen asleep, with a worried look on her face.

Laxus nodded to her, and she felt relieved.

Soon after, Cana, Lucy, and Gildarts returned, and Mira also brought ElfMan and Alba rushed back.

Finally, it was Wendy and Mest. Although they arrived on the island last, they were lucky and passed directly (Mest hid his teleportation magic).

Fried, Gajeel and the other four also returned to the camp. It is worth mentioning that Fried and Bigusro helped Gajeel back all the way, and Levi followed behind with a happy smile on her face, which made everyone curious.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Makarov slowly stood up from the stone.

He glanced at the people around him with a little relief in his eyes,

"Although I didn't go directly to the exam site, after this exam, I can clearly feel that everyone's magic power has been significantly improved, especially Natsu."

"Everyone did a great job. According to the exam regulations, our second exam will start tomorrow. Now, those who are injured will go to Hal.

Those who are not injured, go collect ingredients for me and start our long-lost outdoor camping in Fairy Tail!" Makarov announced loudly.

"???" Hal had a question mark on his face when he heard this

"Ah, I forgot to tell you, before you came back from the capital, the president had already told everyone that Hal was here for this exam, so we didn't have to hold back," Mira took the initiative to explain.

"Good fellow, how could I not know that?" Laxus was also confused.

"No wonder everyone is so excited," Laxus complained.

"Okay =-=" Hal was a little helpless.

Afterwards, all the guys who took the exam except Wendy and Levi came to Hal to line up for healing, and Wendy was also helping.

It is worth mentioning that Mester had a mouth injury. He swallowed a hornet's nest on the way, and his mouth was horrible, which made Hal shake his head.

Natsu was lying with Gray on the side, and Lucy didn't know when she sat next to Natsu.

Hal looked envious for a while, and also cast his eyes on Mira who was cooking with Lisanna on the side, with a little pity in his eyes.

"Stop playing around and work hard," Laxus slapped Hal on the head.

"Oh, your injury will heal after a good sleep," Hal was awakened by the slap and looked at the frost marks on Laxus' body.

"Work," Laxus ignored him and spoke without hesitation.

In this exam, Natsu undoubtedly improved the most, followed by Gajeel.

Natsu, who swallowed Hal's magic, has almost completely integrated the magic of the Earth Dragon. Now he is not only invincible, but also has a critical hit.

As for Gajeel, from Hal's perspective as a dragon slayer, he has also entered the stage of high percentage fusion of dragon slayer magic and body.

"If nothing unexpected happens, this guy should not be able to provoke Natsu on a vehicle, he will definitely faint!" Looking at Gajeel, who is still smiling happily, Hal said in his heart.

Speaking of which, I don't know why Gajeel is so outrageous. His magic is obviously very strong, but his strength is not as good as Natsu.

If we use the Phantom's criteria, he is also an S-class wizard, but it is incredible that he has not developed the weakness of a standard dragon slayer wizard until now.

That night, seven or eight cabins appeared around the camp, and everyone chose their own positions and moved in.

It is worth mentioning that the S-class were all in tents outside, and the president said that "sleeping too soundly will make you lose your vigilance." This is what the president said.

So the president asked Hal to build a huge cabin and brought the best bed and bedding to live in.

Looking at Hal and Laxus, the corners of his mouth twitched.

"This old man is really so lonely during the day, and at night he returns to his old and frivolous appearance."

Laxus sat by the campfire, silently holding a branch, looking at the flames in front of him and said slowly.

"Yes, the president grandpa is really ridiculous." Hal echoed.

"By the way, where's Gildarts?" He went to Cana's cabin, and was kicked out by Cana. Now he is in a lost state in the tent.

"This uncle is outrageous." Hal complained, holding his forehead.

"Haha, it's okay, Gildarts just wants to get close to Cana." Mira sat down with Erza without knowing when, and said with a smile.

"Sorry to bother you, you still have to cook and wash dishes." Hal said to Mira gently.

"It's okay, Erza is doing most of it anyway." Mira smiled gently as always.

"Damn Mira..." Erza muttered with an angry face.

"What, Erza-chan~ Do you want me to tell you about yours..." Mira looked at Erza with a smile (nuclear kindness), and Erza covered her mouth in an instant.

"So fast x2" Hal and Laxus were secretly shocked.

"Well,All in all, it was hard work. Have a good rest tonight. Ever since the president talked to me during the day, I always have a bad feeling. "Hal said, his eyes were a little solemn.

"The ominous fishing rod?" Gildarts suddenly came out of the tent, curious.

"Where is the fishing rod! Mine was broken by Cana!" Gildarts seemed a little disappointed.

"So you are so depressed because of this, uncle." Everyone complained in unison.

Mira and Erza ignored Gildarts who was playing tricks, turned to look at Hal, frowned and asked: "Hal? What ominous premonition?"

"It's hard to explain. I always feel that our enemies are around us, or that the enemies are very close to us." Hal said seriously.

"To be honest, I have this premonition too." Laxus was silent for a moment, his expression became serious, and he said with a sullen face.
