Capítulo 20: Chapter 18: Return to the estate
Albion pov
I decided to show Lucy and Brandish the [unison raid] attack using Caelums cannonblast and my [moon dragon roar].
Lucy:"Whoa! What was that?"
Me:"That was a [unison raid]."
I then proceeded to explain what a [unison raid] is and how difficult it is to acheive. I was able to pull it off with Caelum because we've trained and bonded for a couple of years.
Lucy:"Would I be able to do that with you, Brandish, and with the celestial spirits?" she asked with a shy expression
Me:"If you keep training with me, Brandish and the celestial spirits. Also it is best that to learn other types of magics other then [celestial spirit magic]."
Brandish:"Why is that?" she asked in a curious tone.
Me:"What if your in a situation where you you don't have your [celestial spirit keys] and you don't have any other way of defending yourself?"
Lucy:"That would not be good." she said with an anxious tone with Brandish nodding in agreement.
It looks like they understand my meaning of learning multiple types of magic, that is good. I remember in the anime that Lucy tried to learn [tranformation magic] to increase her arsenal of spells; maybe I can teach her that magic so she'll be better at it then in the canon.
Should I bring these two to Tortus with me for them to acquire [ancient magic]. Though that world is much crueler then Earthland, especially the religious fanatics and the labyrinth trails. I am not sure they would have the stomach for that.
Me:"Well, I will try to teach you magic that is suited to both of you."
When I said that, their expressions brightened as they responded.
Lucy & Brandish:"Okay."
With that I continued to train their magic power for a couple of hours while I Gave Caelum a good polishing. By the time I finished the training session it was time for dinner and Caelum went back to the celestial world. We had fish dishes while I talked about how I trained with multiple dragons. I demonstrated my other magics, including my other [dragon slayer magics] and my [arc of embodiment].
After everyone has taken a bath, everyone but me, mom and Kurnugi went to sleep. The three of us look at the swirling vortex in the sky, I ask mom a question that was on my mind for a while.
Me:"I've been wondering, How is Irene and her child doing?"
Mom:"Irene had a daughter named Erza, they lived in a place called Rosemary village. They had a happy life until Erza was kidnapped by a cult that worshipped Zeref as a god. They needed children as slave labor to help build the R-system that zeref designed but they named it the [tower of heaven]. When Irene found out what happened, she was very upset and vented her frustration on the cult."
Me:"Yikes. a dragon venting their frustration sounds scary."
Mom:"She managed to find the tower where Erza was being kept but she lost an eye, which set her over the edge. That led her to completely destroying the tower. Erza told her mother that she wanted to join a wizard guild."
Me:"Fairy Tail right?"
Mom:"Thats the one, and she managed to save one of their members from the tower of heaven named Rob."
Oh, I remember that he was in the tower of heaven with erza and was a member of fairy tail. In the original timline Rob died saving Erza during the [Tower of Heaven] revolt. But thanks to Irene, Rob lives in this timeline.
Mom:"Irene let her join Fairy Tail on the condition that Erza learns magic from her."
Me:"Interesting."
She learned some [enchanement magic] Wendy which helped her a little but if Erza learns [enchantment magic] from Irene, she will be stronger then she was in the original timeline. But at this point, she still has emotional trauma from the [Tower of Heaven].
But once she works through that trauma, by the time the Tenrou Island arc comes around, she may be able to give the seven kin of purgatory a run for their money.
Me:"Where is Irene now?"
Mom:"She lives in the forest near Magnolia. Since we've beenaround the entire continent for your training, you can get anywhere with your [Andata] or [Aqua Aera]."
Me:"Ok then I should pay her a visit. Maybe I could join Fairy Tail as well, I have always like their guild in my past life."
I wasn't a fan of Quatro Cerberus or Blue Pegasus, especially when Blue Pegasus lets people like Karen Lilica join. Not to mention that Guild Master Bob creeps me out a little.
Mom:"Only on the condition that you learn swordsmanship from Kurnugi."
I can understand where she is coming from, I can copy moves I have seen in anime but its best to learn from a real teacher. Plus there will be times that I can't use magic and have to rely on using a sword or another weapon.
Me:"I can agree to that." I said before turning to Kurnugi and continued. "I will be in your capable hands brother." I said with a bow.
Kurnugi:"I won't go easy on you, you ready for that?" he asked with a serious face.
Me:"Hey, life isn't suppose to be easy, right?" I said with a small smile on my face.
Kurnugi:"Kukuku That is true. It is good that you understand that. Then we will start tomorrow after you teach those two." he said with a chuckle at my response.
Me:"Understood, but for now let's go to sleep."
Kurnugi:"Agreed."
Then the three of us got ready to go to sleep for the night.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
next morning
After having breakfast, I began to help Lucy form contracts with her celestial spirits, starting with Aquarius. So we went to the Lake so that Lucy can use the Aquarious key. She had been given the keys to Cancer and Aquarius by Layla, but Capricorn is still with Zoldeo.
Lucy:"Open gate of the water bearer, [Aquarius]!" she chanted while putimg the golden key into the water.
After she completed the chant, the sound of a bell accompanied by the sound of a door opening can be heard as a pillar of water rose from the lake. When the water fell back down, the mermaid I recognize as Aquarius was revealed.
She looks around to see Layla and Gramy along with their daughters, then to the rest of us before speaking.
Aquarius:"Well, it is good to see you again Layla, Gramy, and Brandish. And the one who summoned me must be Laylas daughter." she said the last part while looking at Lucy. then she looked around and continued. "I see a couple of new faces as well, but where are we?"
Me:"Hello, I'm Albion Nava. If you would allow me, I can explain." I said as I walked up to her.
I then explained to Aquarius how we are in another dimention created by a magic item called the [training gate] and of the time difference between this dimension and the outside.
Aquarius:"So you're Albion. I've heard about you from Leo. You look exactly like how he described you,though that is given since you used the Eclipse Gate."
Me:"Yeah."
Layla and Lucy widened their eyes in surprise hearing that I am acquainted with Leo the lion, the leader of the 12 golden gates.
Lucy:"You know the leader of the Zodiac?" she asked with an excited voice.
Me:"Yes I am acquanted with Leo but he and I don't have a contract. I will tell you about it later but for now lets work on your contract with Aquarius."
Aquarius:"You really expect me to form a contract with her?" she asked with a scowl on her face and a tick on her forhead.
Me:"She was the one who used your key summoned you."
Given Lucy's current level of magic power, he could only keep Aquarius in the human world for a few minutes. So it is best that she formes the contract before that time runs out.
Aquarius:"Tch. You know, I heard about your abilities from Leo but I am still a bit skeptical. I can sense that you have a decent amount of magic power for a child." Then she lifted the urn and continued."Tell you what, if you can survive this attack I will form a contract with her!"
As she yelled that, she swung the urn, causing a huge amount of water to flow out of it. She just threw a tidal wave at us because she wants to see what I can do?
If she really heard about my abilities from Leo, she would have known that she basically just gave me a free meal. Well if someone is this willing to feed me, who am I to stop them.
So I get between Lucy and the tidal wave to take my free meal. I open my mouth and the water is drawn into my open maw.
*Sluuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuurp*
When I finished eating the water, everyone other then the dragons looked at me in shock. I then put my hands together and say "Thanks for the meal."
Then I point my hand toward a stone pillar and channel my magic energy I just gained from my meal, causing a a ball of water the size of a tractor tire to form.
Me:"[Water dragon war drop]!" I shouted as the water ball shot toward the pillar.
At the moment of impact, a huge chunk of the pullar was destroyed causing it to fall to the ground. Aquarius had a look of shock that turned into a look of intrigue at what I did.
Aquarius:"It seems that Leo was not exaggerated. I didn't expect you to eat my attack like that."
Me:"Well, I didn't want your attack to hit anyone else. That tidal wave was too big for me to block without anyone else getting hurt."
Aqarius:"Well, a deal is a deal. I will form a contract with the girl." she said then turned to face Lucy and continued. "I will help her when she needs it but make sure you don't summon me from weird and/or disgusting places." she said with a scowl on her face.
When Lucy sees that scowl she gets a little scared.
Me:"There's no need to scare her Aquarius. I'll make sure she doesn't summon you unless the situation calls for it. But she cares about celestial spirits, just like her mom, so she may want to spend time with you. So I'll help create a place where she can summon you and without making you mad."
Lucy:"You would do that for me?"
Aquarius:"Yeah, most people would go that far."
She has a point, though I am knew from my past life how pissed of Aquarius was everytime that Lucy summoned her from the bath and from a fish bowl.
Me:"Well it's better then her summoning you from her bathtub or a fish bowl."
Aquarius:"Good point. Very well, looks like I will be counting on you and Lucy from now on"
Me:"Yeah, see you later."
After I said that, she nodded and turned to face three people then spoke.
Aquarius:"It was good seeing you again Layla; you too Gramy and Brandish, thanks for taking care of my key."
Gramy:"It was no trouble at all Aquarius."
I turn to see that Brandish has a sad look on her face, she did have her own bond with Aquarius after all. Brandishs sad look did not escape the water bearers notice.
Aquarius:"Don't make that face Brandish, you will see me again. Make sure you behave yourself, got it?"
Brandish:"Understood mistress, arf arf." she said while she put her hands up to her chest like a dog begging for treats.
me: 'Aaaaaaaaand there it is. the Brandish that was "trained" by Aquarius while her key was in Gramy's hands.' I thought to myself while seeing the interaction between those two.
It was after that interacton that Aquarius went back to the celestial spirit world. I make a mental note to myself to not piss her off in the future. I hope Lucy mad the same mental note that I did, otherwise she'll end up being on Aquarius'ss bad side everytime Lucy summons her.
I then clap my hands to get their attention and speak.
Me:"Let's continue training to increase your magic power so you can keep your celestial spirits summonedfor longer periods during a fight and use stronger magic."
Lucy and Brandish:"Okay."
Then I had the two girls meditate and draw ethernano into their bodies and circulate the magic powertohelp them control it.

Third POV
Heartfiia estate
1 hour later Earthland time
The 2 hours or 5 days in the [training gate] have been completed as a light shined from the door to that dimension. When the light faded, the door vanished and 8 figures appeared in its place.
Jude:"It ishard to beliee that only 2 hours passed outsidewhen we've been there for 5 days." he said while looking at his surroundings.
Layla:"I agree, time can work in mysterious ways." she said thinking back to when she met Anna and Albion.
Lucy:"That was so cool!" she yelled in excitement with Brandish nodding in Agreement.
Albion:"Well, what do you think of my training Mr. Heartfilia?" he said while looking at the man known as Jude Heartfilia.
The man watched the boy train his daughter and noticed that the training was not dangerous out of worry for his childs safety.
Jude:"Is the Training going to get more difficult for Lucy?" he asked with concern.
Albion:"for the moment no but when the time times her training will be more difficult. Even if I go easy on her training, life won't go easy on her. You knowhow hard life can be and Lucy should be ready for the challenges she may face moving forward."
As Albion said all that, Jude remembered the difficulties he faced in his life and he didn't have magic. Since his daughter has magic, she may face greater difficulties than he did.
While he was in his thoughts, his wife Layla came up to him and placeda hand on his shoulder before speaking.
Layla:"Dear, I know that your worried for our daughters safety but as parents, we can only prepare her for the difficulties she may face."
After hearing his wife speak, Jude takes a deep breathe and his tension lessened. He then places his hand on hers and starts speaking.
Jude:"Your right honey." he said to his wife begore lookingat Albion and Continued. "I agree to let you train Lucy as long as you don't go overboard."
Albion:"I promise that I won't go to far with her training and I will make her stronger."
Gramy:"I would like you to please train Brandish as well."she requested.
Albion:"Sure."
Thatis how Albion began to train Lucy Heartfilia and Brandish μ.
