Mavis and Problems

Pew!*Pew!*

The Fastest Hiatus in the West.

***

"Tiamat, look at this! I did it!!" Mavis exclaimed with stars in her eyes. In her hand, there was a small ball of water floated.

{Well done sweetie! You are learning very fast!} Tiamat clapped her hands, congratulating her with a smile.

It's been a week since Mavis and Tiamat met. Tiamat was surprised to discover who the little child was. She was none other than the founder of Fairy Tail.

And also, one of the characters with the saddest story in the series. From beginning to end, her life was full of sadness and loss; but she never wavered.

That was why, upon learning who the child was, Tiamat decided to teach her magic. From then on, every day Mavis came to visit Tiamat at the lake.

Tiamat has chosen to remain in the lake as an 'entity cooler than fairies', so that Mavis has a place to escape to when she needs it, and to slowly earn her trust.

She knew that Mavis had no parents, she was basically a slave in the wizards' guild that existed on the island. If Tiamat could, she would have already adopted her, but unfortunately, nothing was easy.

Mavis was extremely innocent, but at the same time, extremely intelligent. She may be doing it subconsciously, but Tiamat senses that Mavis was wary of her.

Probably the constant abuse made her subconsciously wary. Of course, that doesn't mean Mavis would antagonize anyone, but to get Mavis to open up to her, Tiamat needs to show that she is in no way a danger to her, but a safe haven.

That's why, as much as Tiamat wants to take Mavis and leave this place, she can't. Mavis is still so young, and everything she knows is there. She sure doesn't want to leave, not yet at least, even if it was hell. Doing so would cause Tiamat to completely lose the trust she had built up with Mavis.

Thinking of the tragedies the girl will face, Tiamat couldn't help but feel extremely irritated. There was only one way to make Mavis live a happier life. And that is, defeating her archenemy.

Fate.

Yes, for Tiamat, fate itself is her enemy. As she already experienced in Tensura, she did what she could, but Milim, who she considers a daughter, still got emotionally hurt considerably because of the bitch named Fate.

She did what she could, but somehow things still went their way as it was written despite her interference.

Of course, not everything followed what was written.

Because of her interference, Ramiris did not have to be cursed with an endless cycle of reincarnations. So there's a considerable chance that she could change Mavis's fate.

Tiamat knows that Fate is a force of nature and that it doesn't matter if someone has a good or bad life. All that matters is the ending. As a force of nature, all he cares about is his role within the universe.

However, that doesn't change the fact that Tiamat wants to rid the girl of such a destiny. Does that make her a selfish person? For trying to change the fate of one person, even when countless others suffer the same fate, or worse? Completely yes.

But, unfortunately, she cannot save everyone. She is not a messiah. She is a Mother Goddess, and she will do her best to see that those she considers her children have a happy ending.

Tiamat knew that she has to be careful. There are a lot of problems with trying to change fate. Fate is a conceptual force, therefore, it is above the divine realm itself. If Tiamat abuses it too much, Fate will start to act against her until she is eliminated. Tiamat is not afraid of retaliation, but Fate is something that plays dirty. She will never clean up the mess herself, but rather form a way for others to deal with the problem while she helps them from behind.

For example, twisting the fabric of fate so that Tiamat is seen as an evil entity, making the whole world turn against her. And of course, there would be heroes to take her down with the famous Plot Armor and Power of Friendship, which is nothing more than a super boost given by Fate itself.

Not to mention that, as much as she is powerful, she is not omnipotent; that is, she is also bound by the laws and rules of the world. The laws that applied in the Tensura universe do not apply here. In short, she cannot use most of the powers she has gained in Tensura.

She is still at the peak of this world's power ranking, but without all her power it greatly limits what she can do.

With a sigh, Tiamat resumes her lesson with Mavis.

{Now sweetie, how about I teach you some really cool spells now that you know how to conjure? At the same time, you can help me with my speech practice. What do you think?} Tiamat suggested.

Tiamat didn't even have time to finish what she was saying when Mavis started bouncing in excitement. "Really?! Are you really going to teach me cool spells?! What do I have to do!"

Tiamat smiled. 'How can children be so sweet?'

What Tiamat didn't know is that Fate didn't need to act against her, as her awakening caused an uproar in many places.

Several kilometers away from where she was, several individuals and beings noticed her awakening.

A man with dark blue hair and dark tattooed skin covered his body with a long black robe, looking at the horizon with a wild smile.

Another man with dark hair and serene dark eyes was also looking at the horizon. His eyes radiated a light of hope.

A scarlet-haired woman also noticed her awakening and was looking at the horizon angrily.

All dragons and other entities also felt Tiamat's awakening.

Unbeknownst to Tiamat, just by existing, Fate is already changing beyond recognition.
