Chapter 40: Second Trade War… (8)

~Third POV~

Standing in the middle of the battlefield with the screen stopping Mavis from doing something wrong with Rou scolding her about Law, "Mavis! I thought we both agreed you would NEVER use that Law spell till you completed the 10-year requirement! You know full well what you were about to do!!"

Returning to her senses having her head down in shame despite almost using Law on Ragi as his eyes widen further with Rou sighing gently to her, "Sigh… you were very close to getting cursed there. And we both know what curse I meant if you continued?"

Mavis bites her lips as she nodded what Rou meant seeing that she would choose to kill Ragi and let her friends live thus granting her the curse of contradiction. Precht eyes widened as he also understood the severity of what Mavis would almost cause to herself.

Turning the screen around Rou glared at the Water God Slayer groaning with pure disgust for the man in front of him, "Ugh… seriously what's with you God Slayers seeking death from me? Don't you have an altar or worshipers or whatever you God Slayers do for a living?"

Listening to this Ragi sees Rou for the first time before properly addressing himself in a calm manner, "My apologies. I believe we haven't been introduced yet. I'm Ragi. The Water God Slayer of this Generation. I'm to believe that you maimed this generation of Fire and Spirit God Slayer I presume?"

Raising an eyebrow at this Rou merely raised the two Lacrima containing the Magic Power of Fire and Spirit God Slayer with Ragi's eyes widened slightly taking careful wording, "I see… they have fallen to your hands then. The victor does go the spoils."

Glaring at the Water God Slayer as they did the rest of the Wizards slowly surrounded him worried with Mavis returning her gaze at him in a stalemate with things are going.

Ragi seeing the situation could only sigh at this responding to the group with no interest any longer, "Sigh… no. I believe investigating you like this isn't possible. Tch. Not like I want to be fucking number 3 on your God-killer streak. I like to live. So, I give up. You win the game over and whatnot."

Blinking honestly a bit confused on Rou's side viewing him with doubt in his voice, "You give up? Just like that?"

Ragi merely shrugs yawning tired with everyone keeping their guards up nodding with a logical tone, "Yup. I may follow my Goddess's wishes. But even we God Slayers need to have self-preservation. And I'm not going to face the newbie God Slayer having that much Magic Power standing with what I felt even if I'm unsure I would even survive the incoming attack. Nor would I fight you in full power because that seems like a good idea to get myself killed. So… yeah. You win congrats."

Everyone merely looked at each other confused by this outcome as Ragi turns around to leave the battlefield, "If that's the case I'll take my leave. I have no need to die here of all places. I have places to be and things to do than battle a meaningless fight here. So, I bid you all a good day."

The Fairy Tail members all looked towards Mavis seeing Ragi leaving as Rou gives her the call on what to do, "Your call Master. Want us to pursue this or let him leave as things are standing…? I fully support any choice you have."

Mavis ponders this a bit before finally coming to her answer turning around leaving giving her fairies her orders, "Let him go. While I would prefer to have him dealt with for harming our Guild Members… the risk of them dying to him is too great to offend the Water God Slayer. We already completed our main objective. We have a home to return towards!"

Listening to this the members smiled at this agreeing cautiously leaving the Water God Slayer Ragi alone with Rou accepting Mavis's orders happily, "Good. I'll reach your location soon enough. Finally, we can rest at ease now…"

Mavis merely nodded in agreement smiling happily as she took the chance to think about the Law Spell, she was about to use frowning before an idea came to her smiling at the end, 'Law… it's powerful but dangerous… but what if I modified it into a deterrent spell instead? Possibly at the cost of the user lifeforce like the original but better than getting cursed... Once I fully understand the grasp behind it. I will make my own version… Fairy Law.'

Thinking of inventing new Magic spells Mavis looked in the direction of where Rou used the spell Urano Metria inspired her to think of a new spell for her own, 'And that Spell Rou used? He said it was one of the Ultimate Magic Spells for a Celestial Spirit Magic Caster can perform with incantations to activate it… Urano Metria using the power of the stars… the power of the stars glittering… Fairy Glitter. I want my Spell to surpass that magic using my own incantations.'

Mavis looks down at her hands recalling how Rou transmutes Ethernano using his named Fairy Alchemy fueling it reading his notes smirking to herself looking at her guildmates next getting an idea, '… I wonder… with Rou Transmuting Ethernano into Alchemy can I convert Fairy Tail members' bonds and faith into Magic Power. The Magic protects the Guild from any evil, an absolute defense Magic, powerful enough to defend against even time itself! Fairy Sphere... that sounds about right.'

Feeling that despite the war ending Mavis feels her ideas and path growing more steadily inspired by Rou's actions and her own need to defend him when the time comes could only grasp her fist together feeling inspired.

"Hey!"

Rou soon comes out seeing some damage done to his uniform but the smile on his face seeing her and he the same could only rush into each other's arms finally feeling free from the war around them as they held hands walking back home…

The home they and all their friends built… back to Fairy Tail.

[X690 – End of the Second Trade War]

"YAH!"

"THE WAR IS OVER!!!"

"FINALLY!!!"

"VICTORY FOR FIORE!!!!"

"YEAH!!!!"

The voices of the war ending have been heard throughout the land of Fiore as the tired soldiers return home victorious of the hard battle they witnessed and fought hard to defend against change.

The celebration of the end of the Second Trade War has finally been established with the victory of everyone gone through as the war efforts have been a great success and the feud of the Feudal Lords came to an end.

Thus, everyone finally returned home after the Second Caravan Trade War came to an end.

And not a moment too soon the casualty rate was already at the dozens of times higher than the first war's.

They say one reason for that was the introduction of Wizards to the battlefield.

The Magic World realized it, too, and they passed into law the inter-Guild conflict ban treaty that states the law forbidding guilds from engaging in any war-like behavior against another Guild, no matter the reason.

The rewards were just as good for those that won that Mavis Vermillion requested a few Magic Spells, which she would want from the Magic Council along with full ownership of Tenrou Island to which they agreed.

Rou requested a few Magic Tools and Spell Books from the Magic Council as well as a few spells from the Magic Council along with ownership of Tenrou Island as the Guild Fairy Tail were the winning factors ending the war with the Fairy Tactician with her brilliance in important fights and the Fairy Saint healing their soldiers along with repairing weapons faster than the rest of the Alchemist Guilds effortlessly than relying on one specific person Alchemy Type.

At that time the King of Fiore requested Rou personally to create a Magic Tool for his Captain Knight a weapon strong enough to prove itself through the ages.

Having such a task Rou was creative as it took him merely a month time with Enchantment and Lacrima's of varying elements and effects that lead him to eventually create this world version of the Ten Commandments gifting to the King with a few favors for the payment in return.

And for a time, that brought a period of relative peace to the magical world…

"Whew…"

After the new law had been passed for the Inter–Guild conflict ban treating have been posted Rou and Mavis were both at their home in Magnolia at the night sky viewing the stars from up above after a few months passed.

The both of them finally have enough time to relax and upwind to themselves both star gazes at the infinite bright stars up in the sky filling the dark skies above.

Merely a few days passed as the war ended as the two began to ponder the next step of their lives together Rou finally began to talk to Mavis about her ideas, "So you are planning to make 3 new spells out of the inspirations I made for you? I have to say I'm really flattered that I inspired you to have these ideas."

Mavis smiles happily gazing at the stars above her listening to her ideas of her new ideas for her guild, "Yeah… I have been thinking of those spells from behind my head when the War finally ended on that day. Fairy Law, Fairy Glitter, and Fairy Sphere. I want to make them a reality although I would want Fairy Glitter to have an incantation to activate while some ways to your Urano Metria. Any ideas could work."

Hearing this Rou smiles remembering Cana's incantation to activate it giving merely empty words to Mavis thinking about it deeply, "Oh! I know how about an incantation going, like this? 'Gather! O river of light that's guided by the fairies! Shine! In order to perish the fangs of evil! Fairy Glitter!' Pretty good incantation what do you think?"

Mavis merely smiles processing the incantation laughing lightly agreeing to the idea of using those words for Fairy Glitter incantation, "Hahaha! Perfect!! I can see it now clearly how I envision it happening now I just need to process how to gather the power of the sun, star, and moon?"

Rou merely smiles at Mavis's ramblings of her ideas with his input on how to make the process faster or easier to make her spells possible speaking from personal experience of how he created his Fairy Alchemy Transmuting the very Ethernano easier.

Mavis was intrigued listened how Rou showed his own creation of the Fairy Alchemy Transmutation circle in the form of his Archive Magic showing the circle with Mavis intrigued at the symbols of blank Human Transmutation Circle and in the center overlapping it…

"Flamel?"

Mavis wordlessly responds intrigued remembering the lessons that Rou taught her in Alchemy that the Flamel refers to the mystical and alchemical symbol depicted as a cross with a snake or serpent draped about it, as well as detached wings and a crown above it.

Rou nods his head smiling explaining what the Flamel represents in his Fairy Alchemy in clearer detail, "Yeah a Flamel. It resembles and shares common origins with many ancient symbols the cross appears in Flamel's grave illustrations and many say to symbolize Flamel's relation to the Philosopher's Stone."

Mavis nods as she comments on it further remembering the symbol used for it in Alchemy studies their time together nodding wisely, "Yeah, I remember you teaching me this before in Tenrou Island. In Alchemy, the Flamel represents the "fixing of the volatile", a vital step in the alchemical opus' process, related to the making of the mercury's elixir and of curative processes… wait…"

Mavis's eyes widen getting a clear understanding as Rou's smug grin on his face gave out his personalized ideas for her to use Ethernano in the air for her own uses, "Yup! Using the Flamel in this Transmutation Circle allows the user to use the power of the human soul or in this case, Ethernano in the world the Flamel in this case represents the Philosopher Stone connection the ultimate bypass of Laws of Equivalent Exchange use as its unknown mysterious nature Ethernano to create anything Magical… to a degree."

Mavis's eyes dart towards Rou explaining the many possibilities bypassing just one circle for one specific Transmutation while Fairy Alchemy allows the user to freestyle what they want as Rou gifts his secret Fairy Alchemy to her, "For some examples Mavis… Like condensing the air to heat up to create thunder. Reconstruct it into pure gold or silver from the magic particles themselves. Deconstruct any magic in your way to its origin Ethernano. The possibilities are endless… like an eternal adventure, right?"

Mavis was merely awe-inspired by seeing the Fairy Alchemy Transmutation using her magic to write it down and trying for herself…

*Shiii*

The Ethernano soon began to converge at Mavis Fairy Transmutation circle awe-inspiring as she smiles happily at this commenting Rou's mind, "Rou… I swear I feel like I'm talking to a genius of our generation with this. But also, a lovable dummy I know…"

"I know."

Rou closes his eyes knowing full well what Mavis meant as they both laughed at the night with Mavis playing with her new addition of Fairy Alchemy gifted to her from Rou's Alchemy his greatest art to her made her heart beat faster.

Knowing Rou personally he would never give anyone his preferred style but with her playing around with his prize possession she could only mumble to herself understanding the importance of giving Fairy Alchemy to her, "Thanks... I will be sure to treasure the gift you crafted and have been using for years. I won't fail you of your art my love..."

Patting her head Rou nods in understanding as the two merely cuddled to each other embrace as they have control of their fate as the change of future is filled with endless possibilities…
