They looked each other a little bit. Old man is extremly short and he has a white mustache.
''Your swordmanship and magic is quite good kid.''
''Thanks but this is not enough. I can and will be more stronger.''
''Hmm why do you work so hard?''
''To protect my loved ones and for future adventures.''
''Great answer kid. My name is Makarov Dreyar do you wanna join guild? I'm master of Fairy Tail if you want I can take you with me.''
''I'm Axel Cole thank you for the offer but I want to travel around a bit, find strong people and test myself against them.''
''Well too bad but if you change your mind our doors is always open for you.''
''Thank you old man Makarov.''
''Hey don't call me old man I'm not that old.''
''Are you sure? Your hair and mustache is white and you are going bald. You are hella old.''
''Brat if I say I'm not old than I'm not. Also ladies loves color of white.''
''Yeah yeah anyways old man do you wanna spar? After all you are a master well known guild give me a few pointers.''
''Stinky brat I told you don't call me old. Very vell let this middle age man punish you a little bit for calling him old man.''
''What middle age? Are you talking about last century or something?'' When Makarov heard this he gain a tick mark in his head and;
''Prepare brat I'm coming.'' Makarov finish his sentence he began to grow up and start to look like a giant.
''Come old man.'' With this Axel let loose his haki. His conquering spirit start to pressure Makarov, his armament and observation is ready.
Makarov was thinking 'What is this pressure? It feels like kid demand me to submit him? This pressure similar to Gildarts.' Of course Makarov is not a wizard saint and guild master for nothing.
He had countless life and death battle in his past so naturally he didn't submit and throw a fast punch to Axel. Axel predict this thanks to observation and dodged while dodging he slash his sword and said ''Phoenix Cannon'' with this he send flying sword attack to Makarov, not full power of course after all this is not death battle. Makarov dodged to the left and send his right kick to Axel. Axel use sonido and appear behind Makarov he hold his sword towards up and said ''Sword of the Setting Sun.'' with a slash so fast that Axel's arm became invisible for a moment. When sword points towards down sunset appeared and start to head towards to Makarov. Axel invented this technique by himself. He holds his sword with his 2 hands, with his armament coat his sword, he use sonido in his arm and swing down so fast his hand became invisible until he stops. After that sunset appear and his flying slash attack look like sun is falling down the earth, that's why this techniques name is Sword of the Setting Sun. He has similar technique named Sword of the Rising Sun. This time he reverse the process. Makarov use magic named Three Pillar Gods and blocks easily Axel's sword.
''Wow old man this is strong defence. All right I will break this if I don't it's your win okay?''
''Let's see what you got brat.''
''In theory this attack is good but I can't bring all theory to the reality yet and I can't control too much so be careful old man, here comes. 100 Million Slice.'' with this said he use sonido in his arm and slash so fast, so much even Makarov couldn't count the number how many times he swing his sword but his arm break at 3 places. He still couldn't bring this technique reality. With that Axel pass out his body couldn't carry this damage. Makarov pour his magic in to the his Three Pillar Gods. He use %55 percent of his power and still 2 of them destroyed. Makarov shocked because one most know while he is not the strongest wizard, he is still strong after all he is wizard saint and a guild master. Makarov look at the child in front of him and thought this little guy will be beast in the future. After all Axel currently 11 years old. Makarov took the child and start to heal his arm and thought this little guys ambitions. He want to see how this child grow Makarov thought he found a rough gem now he need to the polish this gem, make his potential is reality. For an old man like him this became his joy now, train the youngsters for the future. After he healed his arm, he took Axel and place him base of the tree and he start to think what does he need to do for this kid?
He decided that he will ask again to come with him if answer was still no than he will send this child to that person. 25 minutes later Axel wake up.
''Ughh what the? Aahh I lost eh? Well old man you are quite strong but just wait few years than I will beat the crap out of you.''
''Annoying brat but okay I will wait. By the way are you sure you don't want to come with me to the Fairy Tail?''
''Yeah I'm sure, right now I feel like wind, unrestricted and free and I wanna see the world for a bit longer but if I join a guild I promise that would be Fairy Tail.''
''Okay than. Now what is your plans?''
''I don't know I thought I will go to outside and travel a bit.''
''Hmm how about I send you one of the strongest wizards I know? He is stronger than me and I will write a letter for him so he could teach you one thing or two.''
''Really? Thanks old timer.''
Makarov gains a tick mark in his head and hit Axel's head; ''Brat don't call me old I'm only 83 years old.''
''Are you sure you didn't become senile? Where in the history 83 isn't old? But for an old man you are awesome fighter. No wonder you are the guild master.'' When Axel says this Makarov smile a little bit.
''Stinking brat anyways when you gonna leave?''
''3 days later. I have to say goodbye everyone and collect my clothes also our battle tired me, I need to rest 2 days for perfect condition also thanks for healing me.''
''Don't mention it. Okay wait a bit. I write letter right now than I need to go to the guild who knows what other brats did?''
Makarov write a letter and told Axel wizards name and where he should go, after that they say goodbye each other.
Axel return the village and told everyone that he killed monster and he was leaving village 3 days later.
