Fairy Tail: God Slayer - The Path of Life and Death!

Having dealt with his things, Aidan waved to the pirates and they swam away at an impressive speed, almost rowing their hands. They already prayed to all the sea gods - if only this villain did not rush after them, in order to demand their life in payment! But, everything worked out, he did not pay any more attention to them, but simply walked further from the cave, in which his things were now located. Having frozen the entrance, he decided to ventilate himself and take a walk around the island. There were rocks and very little vegetation everywhere, so he couldn't see much, so he went on.

With a cheerful laugh, Aidan jumped onto the high ledge of the cliff and looked around.

- What a wonderful place! Here, as if the very warmth of life gently envelops the soul ... - with a wry smile, the guy closed his eyes for a moment:

- Ha-a-a ... Such clean air. No wonder He chose this place ... For some reason, there is too much life here. This is the best place to be in control.

"Really ... I can't feel Him, which is not surprising - Zeref is a strong wizard. Although, maybe he's not even here now. If we meet, it will be strange ... Although, it would be better not to allow this. Who knows how we will influence each other. I still have no idea what the curse of Anxelam is, and I don't even want to know. Well, if Mavis, then I do not mind meeting her, she is a pretty wise girl, maybe she even knows powerful spells. Hmm, definitely worth finding her grave! "

For the first time in a long time, Aidan felt such an unprecedented lightness. On this earth, he awakened the feeling that everything in the world was within his power! He wanted to take a walk and look around peacefully, and then practice a little and strengthen himself before returning to the guild. A couple of months can definitely be spent usefully.

With a good mood and a confident smile, the guy continued on his way.

Meanwhile, on the opposite side of the island, by a small pond surrounded by dense trees, a small boy was dozing. The brunette, in red clothes, was quietly dozing, a kind of gloomy sadness was reflected on his face. As it turned out, Aidan was really not the only person on the island. But, the two wizards carrying a part of the imprisoned power of the curse inside could not feel each other. Zeref continued to quietly rest, and Aidan walked carelessly around the island ... The moment of their meeting had not yet come.

The birds chirped happily as they flew from branch to branch. They seemed to be glad to meet a person for the first time in so many years. Although, it was more likely that it was this person. Aidan smiled and spread a little of his magic around him in order to attract cute animals. Several dexterous squirrels even managed to run over his shoulder, while butterflies and birds circled nearby without any fear and chirped merrily.

- I seemed to be in paradise ... Here, indeed, nature lives to the fullest. Although, it is strange why this tree has so much vitality ... I suppose this is not without reason, this can only be in two cases. Either something very special lives here, or something similar was born here. As far as I know, dragons are unlikely to live here, but in the past ...

After a few minutes on the way, Aidan finally made his way to the enormous roots of the Great Tenrou Tree. Giant, probably in front of this tree, only Makarov could feel normal. Aidan walked forward and touched the thick bark, closing his eyes for a moment.

- So warm ... He feeds everything around, so susceptible to magic that they even managed to cast a strong spell on him. Definitely ... this is the most interesting creature I have met so far! I don't even want to destroy it, I rather admire ... - smiling, Aidan directed his life magic right into the tree, he wanted to find a connection and understand his feelings. Of course, how could he miss such a chance? Something that rare will not drop very often.

As soon as a piece of life magic came into contact with the Tenrou tree. In an unknown space, surrounded by streams of magical golden lights, a lonely glowing silhouette exclaimed in surprise:

- What is it?!

The light instantly left space, finding itself on Tenrou Island above a lonely monument.

Meanwhile, Aidan continued to comprehend the amazing sense of merging lives. He saw something unimaginable: eras succeeded each other, people died in countless wars, a world filled with magic and legendary battles of dragons. All this appeared before him like countless fragments of memory, flickering in a constant dance, which ended very quickly.

At the end, Aidan suddenly saw the silhouette of a beautiful girl, immediately stepping back from the tree, realizing his limits.

- This is amazing ... Thank you old man! - Smiling at the tree, Aidan did not understand much, since he simply did not have time to consider the situation. With his current comprehension of life, for him such a contact was already something transcendental. Seeing even a moment of life, such an ancient creature was something truly legendary! This is truly a great gift on the path of comprehending the magic of life ... It is not surprising that at the same moment Aidan felt the imminent approach of his dark essence. Now he was sure that it was not only death magic - even life was pushing him to madness!

Even if from this contact he comprehended only grains, this was already more than enough to understand plants on a deeper level. At the very least, the magic of life will now behave much better in his hands.

- Hmm, I think I won't last even a week now ... - With a bitter smile, Aidan sat down on the ground and threw away all thoughts of the magic of life. He understood well that this gift needed to be comprehended for a very long time, but so far he did not want to turn into a madman, he wanted to keep this piece deep inside and later comprehend everything.

Aidan was more than convinced that in the past, in the days of the dragons or even earlier, something incredible was born on this island. This creature already possessed amazing strength at birth, which is why the island changed so much, and especially the small tree, next to which the creature received life. We can say that this place is a real sacred land. Therefore, the concentration of ether is much stronger here than in many other regions of Fiore.

"Amazing," Aidan grinned admiringly and continued on his way. Now he felt the island differently, the holy land accepted him - he even knew where to go and where the grave of Mavis was. It was her that he felt at the very end, at the moment of contact with the Tenryu Tree. Mavis definitely had a connection to that spell, and it was also her homeland. So it wouldn't be surprising if Mavis sensed his presence on the island too. If so, Aidan would be only too happy to talk to her and learn the secrets of magic. This girl was incredibly smart, she's just a walking library! How could he miss such a chance to comprehend the powers? He still had many goals in life, he wanted to be ready for anything. Plus, who wouldn't want to see the beautiful First Master in person? The moment he could barely notice her face, Aidan was really impressed. Heavenly beauty, like a goddess! Since he could not see well, he even more wanted to be convinced of the truth. This light of life led him to his goal - everything on this island seemed so dear and natural to him, as if he had found his long-lost home.
