During the past week, I have managed to regain some control over time to heal myself but not noteworthy enough. I can only stop the law of darkness from spreading around and I had also asked what would happen if it completely envelops me from god. Apparently, I would be sent into eternal darkness once that happens and only gods would be able to escape and even that would be difficult for them.
Since I found out about this, I have been consciously using the law of time to counter the law of darkness. Once I gain a bit more control, I can start closing my wounds aside from where my limbs used to be and this could help in negating the law of darkness more easily. Once the wounds are completely closed, I will hold the darkness back until I gain back the control I had over time to get back my limbs before expelling any law of darkness from my body.
While this may seem simple to say though, it is much more difficult to accomplish. As such, I had begun to meditate at night to train in laws. It wasn't anything grand, instead I just tried to gain more insight to the way of time and space. The different ways to use the law and getting better at controlling it is the only way you could get better in terms of law.
While I meditated at night, I used space and time around me get better control while I trained Natsu, Gray and Elfman during the mornings. This way I could train in control during day time while I gained more insights during the night time.
While this happened, I had already decided to increase the training the three went through. This is to make them stronger so that in the future they could help me out when they reach demi god rank since I took them as part of the group that will fight in the future. While I will mainly focus on recruiting from other worlds, I will train some people from this world just to be sure. This included the girls but they told me that they would like to spend some more time taking care of me while I was in my current condition when I told them I wanted to train them.
Since they had already decided to stand by for now, I fully tortured the three who decided to go through with the increase in training. I had already told them that I will be upping the training to prepare them for the future so they didn't complain. Not too much at least.
Am I worried that making them too strong could make them overpowered for the first few fights they were supposed to have? Yes, but I don't really have a choice. I'd rather have them overpower anyone that stands in front of them in this world than them being killed when I have to bring them up against beings at the level of those who I have just finished fighting.
This is probably the first time I have changed this world at such a large scale. I mean, I was even willing to be a massive asshole and let Erza be taken away to the tower when she was young and never told Kagura where her brother was and what fate lied ahead of him. I could have changed many of such things but I didn't because it was things that would only influence this world if I changed it.
But this is something which could influence the multiverse if I didn't do anything, so I had to make some changes. And that changes would start at Fairy Tail. I would make everyone in the guild stronger. Even the ones who were just person A or person B in the canon. I will make them stronger and have Fairy Tail back me up in anything. Of course, I wasn't stupid enough to believe that everyone in the guild can reach the demi god rank but I would everything in my power to help them reach their full potential.
For now, though, that could only be a side project since I myself need to reach demi god rank as soon as possible. But I didn't really need to do much in training them and only had to instruct them here and there so every time anyone is not doing any jobs, I drag them with me to train them alongside Natsu, and the others.
At first, they didn't really want to but once Makarov found out what I was doing, he made them do it with an order. It took a grand speech about becoming stronger so that they could protect each other and keeping themselves from falling into a condition like I was in to convince them to take it seriously though since despite his order, they weren't really into training. After the speech though, they have been giving it their all in training and was getting stronger themselves.
It was showing as well since any job that requires fighting are being handled by them quite easily now. Of course, that is when they are fighting something or someone who was at the same level as themselves before the training. But nonetheless, it was a fact that they were getting stronger and they also noticed it themselves.
Apart from Natsu, Gray and Elfman, the major players of the guild who trained with them is only Makarov since no one else was here and the girls were not training as of now. Makarov started to train after the third day of Natsu and the others' training began.
And since he was way stronger than anyone else here, I had to give more attention on his training. Apart from a much heavier workout schedule than the others, I also used lightning to fight him while still seated on the wheelchair. While I say I was only using lightning to fight him, it was only me using lightning projectiles to hit him and surrounding him with a lightning field to get him to either dodge or block while increasing flexibility.
The result was obvious and yet not at the same time. Since he would usually only just sit at the guild and drink there wasn't any way to find out how much he improved but during training you could see that his rate of dodging and efficiency of blocking had increased. As for attacking wise, that is up to him since the physical aspect of the training is what will be the most beneficial for him and how he uses his increased strength is going to be left to him to decide on.
We had already made a deal to have a real fight once I recover so he is getting rid of any rustiness in him and while he is no match for me, I could limit myself a lot to have some fun in the fight. After the fight, I could use time to make his inner body younger. His appearance would remain the same but his organs, muscles and bones would be much younger than what his appearance says. This was how I spent the rest of the days until I recovered and I prepared myself for both the fight with Makarov and also the inevitable scolding from the girls which I have been holding off on.
