Fourth Brother

Fairy Tail Guild, Headquarters.

Makarov just came back from the arduous meeting at the Magic Council. He even had to inform all the other guild masters of the decision of the council.

He came back to find the guild as unruly as always.

'Since when did that became a habit, sigh…'

'Without Erza here. They are even more wild.'

Natsu fighting Grey, Happy flying all over the place.

Laxus acting high and mighty overlooking everyone from above. Like the jerk he once was.

Makarov had too much to think about to actually pay any attention to their pleasantries.

He then asked, a white-haired girl:

"Where is Mirajane?"

The cute girl responded:

"She is out, she said she had some things to settle. Hehe…"

Makarov sighed; even Mira wasn't here. This was bad.

'Think positively, at least Erza should come back soon.'

As he was about to die up, the mess….

Suddenly!!

He felt a powerful sense of danger!!! In the same time Laxus and Mystogan felt it too!!

Makarov stood up immediately all his hair rose up on his skin!!

This was how much dread he felt just now!! The Pressure seemed overwhelming, he didn't feel like this in a long time….

Tension filled up the air!!!

The Second one to swiftly appear was Gildartz.

Yes, indeed, this was one of the rare periods of time where Gildartz was at the guild.

And he was already making preparations for taking the 100 year Quest.

Slowly the other guild members felt it, too.

There was something wrong going on.

Natsu and Happy were the last to stop too.

All the Mages stopped what they were doing…

As sounds of steps filled the whole building.

Two lean, yet well-toned silhouettes appeared. Their hair was long, dark even silky.

And as they approached, they could be discerned.

The two looked quite similar, it was easy to say that they were related.

But what attracted the eye was their unconventional sense of clothing.

The older one was wearing a dark and somber caftan, and on top of it a red cape, and embraided over it, was the sigma of a Red Falcon.

It was simple, but all the fabrics appeared to be extremely expensive.

The Second one, was the youngest and the most handsome of the two.

Even by Earthland's and Fairy Tail's standard, his beauty was unmatched.

His long hair and fine-featured face, was even a little feminine, but it matched his dangerous aura. He was adorned with a blood red, garment. And a dark red cape a top of it.

There was deep charisma and charm in his demeanor.

The two looked like the opposite sides of a single coin. One seemed domineering and savage, the other seemed savant and elegant.

Yet somehow, more than anything else….They resembled each other the most.

Makarov took a deep breath:

'These clothes, it's…!!'

Yes…Indeed the clothing of the Atleasian Empire was quite peculiar in Earthland.

It's quite showy and extremely rare to come across. But the Guild Master already saw it today!!

Only the Grand Vizir was draped like that. This could only mean one thing.

The two marched, approached empty seats and casually sat down.

The tension only escalated.

All the members tightened their nerves. Makarov the first.

But what happened was something widely out of their expectation.

Their dark eyes ignored every mage present here like they were air, before their landed on a shy, timid white-haired boy.

Immediately, their eyes glinted with a complex light.

The both of them simultaneously remembered a dear memory of theirs.

After, beginning their conquest, when they roamed the Shinobi World.

One night, when the three of them laid down, on the ground of the battlefield.

The Emperor, suddenly stood up, and grinned stupidly as he looked at the two mature young men they now became:

"Hehehe…You've grown into such fine men!!"

"Your Elder Brother may need to start searching for brides for you, sooner than later!"

Izuna responded, a little embarrassed.

"Aniki!! Why do you always keep saying that?"

Madara only grunted, already used to this weird person's antics.

The Emperor then sighed to the sky:

"Actually…Elfman is getting older too. I may need start searching for one for him soon too."

He seemed to be thinking about a matter of extreme importance:

"Hmm….Wil Evergreen…really do..?"

The both of them were surprised at the mention of another name, the both said at the same time.

""Who is Elfman?""

Marek who heard the question, only responded casually:

"Huh…He is our younger brother, of course…"

""WHAT?!!""

The both stood up in surprise!!

"We have another brother?!! Since when?"

Izuna was interested.

Marek smiled with deep affection in his eyes:

"Oh…I never spoke of him…"

The both seeing the Emperor's eyes immediately calm down.

'He is serious.'

"I spent my childhood with him."

The both's interest were peaked.

"He is hard-headed, but quite shy."

"But under his timidity, there was a great deal of heart and courage."

He laughed lightly:

"Everyday, he strived to be the person he aspired to be."

"And before anything else, he held a great deal of love for his family."

The both of them, listened quietly. The Emperor's words were tender, longing and nostalgic. He didn't show this side of him often.

So it was quite embarrassing for Madara. Izuna was more comfortable with this kind of display of affection.

The Monarch smiled:

"He may not be as talented as the both of you…But I trust he will do just fine in the future."

He turned to the both of them:

"You two, need to take good care of him, for me."

Madara only snorted:

"Tch! Such a chore…"

Izuna responded, with a lively tone:

"Of course, Aniki!! He is our little brother after all!"

The Two men kept scrutinizing the boy, who felt that he was being stared by ferocious beasts' form hell!!

His legs began wobbling, as he began to even hyperventilate.

A Little white-haired girl, ran and opened her arms in front of her brother:

"What are you trying to do to nii-chan?!"

Madara seeing the spectacle of the boy getting shield by his little sister, was irked.

And was pushed to finally speak his first words:

"Is that how you are supposed to act?"

"Cowering behind a woman?"

The boy hearing these words looked up once again.

The Mages who were ready to engage also calmed down. Makarov and Gildartz in particular, knew something deeper was going on.

"What kind of man, acts like this?"

Lissana was confused but still kept a tenacious attitude:

"Stop insulting, nii-chan!!"

On the other side, these words seemed to be a trigger for Elfman, who suddenly gathered courage, to look up.

The two men's aura were frightening.

Even if they had refined exteriors, it was evident, in their very existence, what kind of beings they were!!

Gildartz spoke in his mind:

'Those guys look super dangerous.'

'…The Kind that eats meat and blood for breakfast.'

'What their relationship with Elfboy?'

Gildartz narrowed his eyes and loosened his stance.

'Atleast, there is absolutely no killing intent on their part.'
