Fairy Tail’s Strongest - Chapter 107 Recognition
Natsu slowly went back to his old ways, as he spent most of his time with his friends, however the only difference was that he wasn’t causing as much trouble as he used to, as he wasn’t attacking anyone
As they were all doing their own things, the doors to the guild opened and a all of the members of the Grand Magic council had come in with cases in their hands. Makarov stood up along with Adrian who walked up to them and saw them give him a nod, to which he responded with one of his own
The Chairman Gran Doma, followed by Org, Michello, Yajima, Belno, Leiji, Yuri and Hogg all stood opposite the members of Fairy Tail in an awkward silence. After a few moments Makarov spoke “Welcome to Fairy Tail, Chairman Doma, and fellow seat members….. now what can we do for you?”
Yajima, and old friend of Makarov’s then replied “It’s not what can you do for us, but what can we do for you. Sigh….. after recent events the magic council had come to the conclusion that Fairy Tail isn’t what it was thought to be, which is why we have all come here to ask for your forgiveness” Yajima said in a sorrowful tone leaving Makarov and everyone speechless
Adrian was smirking in his head as he believed that the Guild was getting the recognition that they deserve. Especially since Chairman Doma was here also. This showed just how serious they were about this, as he was one of the people that completely hated Fairy Tail because of their antics, but after seeing how they protected the civilians, and faced off against a dark guild with their lives on the line, when it wasn’t their job to do so in the first place, it only seemed fitting for the members of the council to come and see them
It was then Gran Doma who spoke “We have also come here to present these Medals of Valour to all the mages who partook in the battle against Tartaros, as it was thanks to you that we are all here, and the damage done to Fiore was very small”
Gran Doma then opened the case he was carrying, as did the other members, which revealed shiny golden medals causing everyone to ‘ooh’ and ‘aah’. Adrian also looked slightly impressed, as each one had the individuals name written on the back
One by one everyone was given their medals, and they all wore it with a smile on their faces, as the council placed it on them personally with genuine smiles on their faces, thanking them for all the work that they’d done for Fiore
After being given the medals, the council was invited to stay for dinner, to which Adrian was immediately nominated to cook for everyone. Needless to say the council will definitely be having Adrian to cook more often for them whenever they have their meetings…. and may just occasionally happen to be passing through the area whenever they are hungry for some food
“Adrian, how are you feeling…. its almost time you know” Gray said as he sat down near Adrian, as Erza and the rest also sat down on the same table. “I’m quite nervous actually, time flew by so fast and… uh…. yeah” Adrian said in a nervous tone making everyone chuckle, as they rarely get to see Adrian like this, and as friends normally do….. they would take advantage of this
Although Adrian had been with Mira for many years, they had put off getting married as they wanted to do it with everyone present, but now that they were getting married in less than a week, Adrian started to feel nervous…. like really nervous, it was as if the thoughts in his mind just left him
Laxus then slapped him on the back while laughing and said “Don’t worry dude, me and the other guys know just the way to get rid of your pre wedding jitters….. and that’s to have one hell of a bachelor party!” he said and began to cheer, as did the other men
Adrian however merely began to shrink into his seat as he noticed Mira giving him one of her deathly smiles. You would think that at this point he’d be immune to it but nope
Laxus caught on and quickly said “I mean we will have a quiet night out with the guys” and everyone nodded which seemed to agree with Mira
Erza who was sitting with next to Mira then spoke up “Adrian for the next few days, until the wedding, Mira will be staying with me and the other girls”
Adrian wanted to protest to this as he’d practically gotten used to having Mira by his side all the time, and knew it would feel strange if she wasn’t there. Mira noticed this and added “Don’t worry its only until the wedding day, and it’ll make it even more special”
Adrian sighed and then nodded at her reasoning before they all began to pack up for the night and went to their respective homes, and for the first time in 7 years Adrian would be sleeping alone
As he entered his home he went straight to be and thought to himself ‘It’s been so long since i’ve left my world. I’ve done so much and made so many friends…. and soon I’ll be married and start to make my own family….’ and with a smile on his face Adrian drifted off to sleep
