Chapter 0001 Fairy Tail

Only sorcerers can join the Sorcerers' Guild, which is a fundamental truth of common knowledge

It is you who has been too lazy; I had already practiced for about an hour before coming to the guild, while you, who have not yet learned magic, have only just gotten out of bed!

This is the Fairy Tail guild

That is the emblem of the Fairy Tail guild

Early in the morning, many townspeople were busy preparing for a day's work in the streets of the town; some were occupied with opening their shops, while others were moving various goods, creating a lively atmosphere

Even though the characters in "Fairy Tail" are not the type to gossip about others, Noah himself is somewhat concerned about it

After all, what Gray said is not wrong

Noah nodded with a smile and, together with Gray, walked downstairs

Upon hearing this, Noah not only did not frown due to the other party's extremely displeased words, but also smiled with a sense of helplessness

If I am not mistaken, this is already the eleventh time you have asked this question, isn't it?" Noah sighed softly

Is Gray about to arrive as well?

This is also the reason why Noah just looked at his guild emblem with a complex expression on his face

In this kingdom of Fiore, where "magic" has deeply penetrated people's lives, it can be said that there are countless "sorcerers" who possess magic and make a living from it. These sorcerers belong to different guilds, accept commissions from others, and use magic to fulfill the corresponding tasks. The number of sorcerer guilds is similarly vast.

Now, the place where Noah resides is this "Fairy Tail" guild

Those who bear the emblem representing a certain guild are thereby recognized as magicians of that guild

Hearing the extremely impatient and rude sound of knocking, Noah couldn't help but smile faintly. He turned around, grabbed a coat that was resting on the bedside, draped it over himself, and his gaze inadvertently fell on the back of his right hand, fixating on it.

"Fairy Tail" is undoubtedly the foremost wizard guild in the Kingdom of Fiore, and as a member of this guild, no one feels anything but pride

Noah's room is located on the top floor of the guild, thus standing by the window allows one to almost overlook half of Magnolia Town, where the "Fairy Tail" guild is situated

Then why don't you ask Grandpa yourself

However, Noah looked at the emblem on the back of his hand, revealing an extremely complex expression. Ultimately, he let out a sigh, calmed the emotions within him, and approached the door, opening it.

Although it is referred to as a senior, given the age of the other party, it is naturally impossible for them to be a mature mage. They are currently in the process of studying magic, striving to become a mature mage. Therefore, similar to Noah, even though they have joined "Fairy Tail," they have not yet reached the level where they can accept commissions and go out to work

In the early morning, the air still carries a hint of chill, as a gentle breeze descends from the sky, sweeping over the buildings and blowing towards the center of Magnolia Town. The curtains of a rather luxurious building facing the street sway back and forth. Although it is somewhat cold, it also imparts a unique refreshing sensation characteristic of the morning.

Looking at such a scene, Noah felt an unusual sense of peace in his heart. He seemed to recall something and softly murmured a phrase.

Is that so?" Noah rolled his eyes.

"But are you really that strong?" Gray looked at Noah with a face full of doubt.

As the gathering place for the guild members and the headquarters for receiving work and commissions, the "Fairy Tail" guild is almost uninhabited, with even the guild master, Makarov Dreyar, residing elsewhere.

Feeling the subtle chill of the morning breeze that enveloped him, Noah resisted the urge to turn back and burrow under the covers for a bit more sleep, and drew the curtains shut

I didn't notice it at all

However, as Makarov's adopted grandson, Noah has lived here for a year since being brought back from the unknown wilderness by Makarov

Oh... it's a bit cold...

Hey! Noah! Get up!

What caught Noah's eye was a young boy who was about the same size as him

The same jet-black short hair, yet it is not as refined and smooth as Noah's; instead, it stands up somewhat rebelliously. Dressed only in a pair of shorts, the young boy stands outside the door, displaying a somewhat impatient expression on his face.

After tidying up the curtains, Noah looked out the window

Grandfather said that the magical power within me is too strong, and if I cannot control it freely, using magic recklessly will only bring unimaginable disasters. Therefore, before I can control the magical power within me with ease, I am temporarily prohibited from learning magic. Haven't I already told you this?

Of course, it is not that Noah dislikes living with Makarov; the reason for residing in the "Fairy Tail" guild is quite complex. Overall, Noah is still quite satisfied with his current place of residence.

Click ... ...

It is also for this reason that Noah frequently interacts with Gray from the Fairy Tail guild, and their relationship can be considered the best among all in Fairy Tail. This is evident from Gray's impatient expression, yet he still comes to Noah's room at the guild every day at the earliest opportunity to call for him.

Fairy Tail is merely one of the many guilds that are densely packed like a jungle, yet it stands out as one of the most prominent and renowned.

Noah spoke with a hint of annoyance, while Gray nonchalantly walked into his room

Gray immediately fell silent

If you don't open the door soon, I might just kick it down!

I have always felt quite puzzled. Gray, who walked into Noah's room, turned around and looked at him

With a faint sound, the half-open window was pushed open by someone. A boy, around eleven or twelve years old, with neatly cropped black hair and a pair of deep, star-like dark pupils, stood by the window, gazing at the bustling street outside. He lazily stretched his body but soon shivered slightly.

Upon closer inspection, there is a bird-like tattoo on the back of Noah's right hand

You are so energetic this early in the morning, Gray

However, Konoya joined the "Fairy Tail" guild before he could use magic, and he marked his book with the emblem of the "Fairy Tail" guild

Noah, who is the same age as Gray and equally immature, still cannot use magic even now, and does not even qualify to be called a mage

"Old Master Mingming once said that your magical power is so strong that it astonishes even him. Why is it that you still cannot use magic?"

Gray Fullbuster, this is the name of the boy of similar age before me. Although he is about the same age as Noah, he joined Fairy Tail approximately two years earlier, making him Noah's senior.

Noah did not deny the fact of Gray's somewhat harsh words, but rather shrugged his shoulders indifferently

Though he spoke otherwise, he indeed harbored such doubts in his heart; however, Gray still had great faith in Makarov's judgment. Since Makarov had stated it this way, it must be so, without a doubt.

Although Gray, who is not yet mature enough to accept commissions and work, cannot be considered a fully-fledged mage, he is now able to use magic, albeit at a very rudimentary level. However, being able to use magic and having joined a guild allows him to be referred to as a mage.

No sooner had the words left his lips than the door to Noah's room was subjected to a series of loud and unceremonious knocks, causing it to shake repeatedly.

Alright, alright, no more talking, let's go down; it should be lively down there as well
