30 Chapter 30: Meeting of the Disciples

Magnolia City.

In one of the areas in the business district belonging to the Guild - Fairy Tail and Allen, there were three people who appeared to be there. Two people are doing work while the other is just sitting back and monitoring the work being done by the two people. On the right side of the figure who is sitting relaxed, there are a number of tables filled with various kinds of food, drinks and fruit available there. Each table is also equipped with a top cover so that sunlight does not destroy the quality of the items on the table.

Two people currently working are Laxus Dreyar and Cana Alberona. Meanwhile, sitting back and monitoring their work was Allen's clone.

Laxus and Cana's performance over the past two weeks has been very good. They never laze around. Whenever their magical energy is full, they immediately continue their work. The cooperation between the two of them is also slowly starting to build.

The area that will be used as a place to build an artificial lake is around ten hectares and currently the two of them have succeeded in excavating one hectare of land in the area. They still need nine more hectares of land excavated to be able to achieve the specified target.

Sweat seemed to keep coming out of their bodies at this time. The clothes they were wearing were wet with sweat and also dirty from adhering soil. However, they don't care about their current appearance. The thing they care about is the task they have.

While doing this exercise, Laxus and Cana's strength has also increased. Laxus' previous magical energy was only at level 17, after two weeks of working there, he had managed to increase his magical energy to level 19. Meanwhile the same thing also applies to Cana. Cana's magic energy was previously at level six, after two weeks of working there, she has succeeded in increasing her magic energy to level nine.

It would only take a few more months for Laxus to catch up with the guild members and enter the top ten ranking list as long as he continued to maintain his performance. That's what Laxus also knew. Knowing that his strength had increased very significantly as a result of the training he carried out, made Laxus even more enthusiastic about doing this training.

The same thing applies to Cana.

At this time five people came to the place. The five people who came were Makarov, Allen, Erza, Kagura Mikazuchi and also Simon Mikazuchi.

The arrival of the five of them was immediately noticed by Laxus and Cana. Both of them immediately stopped the work they were doing at this time.

"Uh? Who are the children with Allen and Master?"

"I don't know" Laxus shook his head and continued, "Maybe a new student accepted by, Allen"

"Student?"

"Laxus! Cana! Come on, stop your work and come here! Meet your new students and friends!"

Laxus and Cana heard Allen's voice clearly.

"As expected of him" Laxus sighed and said, "He definitely wouldn't come bringing someone especially a child the same age as him if it wasn't someone important to him"

"Hn,"

Laxus and Cana immediately stopped the work they were both doing. The two of them immediately went upstairs to meet Allen and the others.

Makarov smiled proudly at the arrival of Laxus and Cana, "Yo! It seems like you really enjoy the work you do."

"As long as someone knows the benefits of this practice, everyone will want it."

"This training is indeed very difficult, Master. But the benefits we receive are extraordinary. My strength has risen to level nine in just a period of two weeks of training."

"Oh? Is that so? That was so amazing!" Makarov was very happy to hear this, "Keep trying hard and get the best results from this training. Maybe, after the training you two have done is finished, one of you can occupy a position on the ranking list in the guild."

"Hmph!" Laxus sniffed proudly, "Of course! I will definitely do it!"

Cana just smiled in response to those words. She was aware that it would be impossible for her to immediately rank up in the guild after the training ended. The difference in strength between her and the people in that ranking was very large. With her current training, it was still not enough to cover the distance between her and those people.

However, Cana did not give up. She will continue to train so he can enter the ranking list. She didn't want to make Allen disappointed in her.

"Laxus, Cana" Allen called the two of them, both of them immediately turned their attention to Allen and also to the others, "Meet your new friend and my new student"

Allen pointed at Erza, "Her name is Erza, just Erza. She's just like me"

"Nice to meet you" Erza immediately came forward to show herself to the two, "I hope we can be good friends from now on"

"Yeah," Laxus just nodded casually.

"Cana, Cana Alberona. I also have such hopes"

"Hn," Allen and Makarov nodded.

Erza then stepped back followed by Allen pointing at Kagura, "Her name is Kagura Mikazuchi, she is currently four years old and the youngest among all my students. Because she is the easiest, you have to be able to teach her well. Do you understand?"

"Yes," Laxus and Cana nodded in unison.

"Hello, nice to meet everyone" Kagura stepped forward to show herself, "I hope we can be friends"

"Me too, don't hesitate to ask me for help if you need help, Kagura-chan" Cana said excitedly.

Laxus just nodded in response to Kagura's words.

Kagura immediately retreated to her previous position, Allen then pointed at Simon, "His name is Simon, Simon Mikazuchi"

"Mikazuchi? Is he Kagura-chan's brother?" Cana immediately interrupted Allen's words.

"Well," Allen nodded and continued, "He is Kagura's brother. He is also my student and therefore I hope you can be good friends."

Simon had managed to sense the magic energy and absorb it. It happened during their trip to Magnolia. Simon took this opportunity to practice and finally succeeded. He succeeded in awakening darkness element magic. Previously he was afraid of the magic he possessed, but after being calmed by Makarov and Allen, he calmed down especially knowing that Allen also mastered the same magic as him, dark magic.

"Nice to meet you all" Simon stepped forward to show himself.

"Hn," Laxus nodded politely in return.

"Nice to meet you too, Simon. I hope we can be good friends," said Cana.

"Okay, you already know each other," Allen immediately entered the conversation again, "Laxus, Cana. Erza and Simon will later train together with you here."

"Uh?"

Allen's words immediately stunned Laxus, Cana, and Makarov. They didn't expect that Allen had such a plan.

"What about me, Allen?" Kagura, who was not named, immediately asked full of hope.

"You have your own practice. I will explain the exercises to you later, okay?"

"Hn," Kagura nodded enthusiastically hearing this.

All of Allen's students saw Kagura get a little special treatment from Allen and immediately felt feelings of envy and jealousy. Even if it was Simon, who in fact was Kagura's brother, he was jealous and envious because Kagura got quite special treatment from Allen.

Allen then glanced at Laxus and Cana, "Erza and Simon will be training with you. Erza's magical abilities will really help you in doing the work you have."

"Her magical abilities?" Laxus asked with interest.

"The magic that Erza has is called telekinesis magic. This magic allows him to control any object, be it inanimate or living."

"Amazing..." Cana exclaimed in amazement at Erza's magical abilities.

Laxus immediately put on a serious expression when he heard that. Meanwhile, Erza felt very happy to get praise from Cana.

"With Erza with you. You no longer need to have difficulty lifting the soil or material under the excavation. She can take care of that" Allen then looked at Erza, "This will also be your training. This practice will not only help you to increase your magical energy. This exercise will also help you develop your magical abilities."

"I understand. I will definitely do well" Erza said with a determined look.

"Well," Allen nodded then looked at Simon, "You will also come with them. This exercise will help you increase your magical energy."

"I understand"

Allen then looked at Laxus and Cana, "You two will help explain this training to the two of them. But, do it later. I will take them to pack up all their belongings in their new residence."

"Where will they live, Allen?" Cana asked quickly, "Could it be in your apartment?"

"Yeah," Allen nodded "That's the plan"

Cana sighed hearing this, she then looked at Erza and the others then said, "You are really lucky to be able to live in such a luxurious place like that."

"A very luxurious place?" Erza asked confused.

"Weren't you given an explanation about the place you will live in from now on?"

"We got an explanation. We will live in a house in a large building occupied by many people where the house can be lived in comfortably by the three of us."

"Huh?" Cana was stunned to hear Simon's explanation, "Is that all? No explanation---"

"I think that's enough, Cana" Allen immediately interrupted, "Let them find out about the place themselves"

"But…" Cana wanted to say something then sighed, "Why can't I find someone who can share a room with me?"

"Various rooms?" Kagura asked in confusion.

"Each room in Allen's apartment is spacious and there are three rooms in it. Almost all members of the guild live there, where three people will share the same room so they don't have to pay expensive monthly rent," Makarov explained calmly to Erza and the others.

"How much is the monthly rent?" Erza asked with interest.

"350,000 Jewels for foreigners or non-people from our guild. While 300,000 for people from our guild"

"300,000 Jewels?!"

Erza and Simon were immediately stunned to hear the monthly rental fee for Allen's apartment.

"Because of that, everyone in the guild will look for friends so they can rent a room in Allen's apartment at a more affordable price," Cana said, "You might think the rent in Allen's apartment is expensive. However, the rental price for Allen's apartment is already relatively cheap. The facilities in the apartment are very luxurious and complete. The service in the apartment is also the best. Ah! Why can't anyone share it with me?!" Cana immediately exclaimed sadly.

"If you don't have friends to share with, why not just stay alone?" Allen asked casually, "One month's rent is only 300,000 Jewels while you will be able to earn 2.5 million Jewels after successfully completing the work you are currently doing. Regarding rental fees, you don't need to pay them at this time. You can pay when you have the money. What do you think? This also applies to Erza and others. They will pay the rent when they have the money to use to pay the rent."

"Can that be done?" Cana asked quickly.

"Sure" Allen nodded, "But only specifically for you my students. Others will not get this kind of treatment."

"That's good! Well then, I'll take care of my move today, after this training is over! Ah! Finally I can live there too. I no longer need to worry about my clothes and room from now on " Cana said excitedly, she could finally move from her current residence to a more comfortable residence.

Allen nodded and said, "Back to our previous discussion. As explained previously. Erza, you and Simon will join in training together with Laxus and Cana. Both of you will also be given a bracelet which you must wear at all times until the training ends."

"We understand" Erza and Simon nodded seriously.

Allen then looked at Laxus and Cana, "Please help explain to them the exercises that must be done as well as the rules that I have set."

"We understand" Laxus and Cana nodded seriously.

"Oh, yeah" Allen suddenly remembered that he needed to give something to Laxus and Cana. He immediately took out two plastic bags containing items from his storage room. The right plastic bag was immediately directed to Laxus while the left plastic bag was immediately directed to Cana to give to both of them.

"This is a souvenir from me for the two of you"

"Small gifts?" Laxus and Cana were stunned to hear this.

The two of them took their share of the plastic bag and looked inside the plastic bag. The items in the plastic bag were a pair of clothes that Allen bought at the Heart Kruzh Shop.

"The clothes were bought by me following recommendations from Master and also the workers at the Heart Kruzh shop. I hope you like it even though it may not suit your dressing sense."

"Don't worry, we will definitely like this gift given by you"

"Hn," Cana agreed with Laxus' words by nodding and saying, "Thank you very much, Allen."

Allen smiled seeing that the two of them were happy with the gift he had given them, "Then we'll go back first. You can continue your work while for the clothes, you can save them by placing them next to the seat occupied by my clone. He will help look after it for you."

"Leave it to me" The clone said with full confidence.

"Hn," Laxus and Cana nodded at this.

Allen's gaze immediately glanced at Makarov and said, "Let's go, Master."

"Hn,"
