Chapter 2
The Carlos Mountains are located to the west of the Council. The entire mountain range stands in the west of the Kingdom of Fiore, stretching across the vast land. These mountains are composed of steep peaks, long glaciers and mysterious forests.
It was already the end of September in X768. Leila and Auguste had been traveling for more than a year. During this period, Auguste would take Leila to see doctors and healing magicians in every city they arrived in, but they had no idea what to do about Leila's situation and could only give some pertinent advice. It was a pity for Leila, but he didn't care too much. He was not the original body. As a somewhat selfish person, it was enough for his memory to be there.
Leila had already mastered magic at this time. After several months of devastation, Leila was finally able to learn magic, but at that time Leila had not decided what kind of magic she wanted to learn.
"Don't worry, magic will choose you. With an unwavering heart, you will eventually encounter the magic you want. Since you are hesitant, this magic may help you."Ougast saw the hesitation in Leila's heart, transmitted the ancient magic to Leila's brain, and explained it to Leila.
After a while, Leila gradually absorbed the ancient magic transmitted by August in her brain, and then spread her hands. After a golden magic circle was generated, a huge information collection sphere appeared above Leila's head, and a virtual screen appeared in front of her.
"Oh! This is the ancient magic book. You can search for a lot of information on it."Lila clicked on the screen with both hands, searching for various magical information. The screen in front of her divided the results into small screens.
"Use it well."
Back to the present, Leila looked at August and couldn't help saying,"Grandpa, how far is it to the town?"
"We are almost there. Look, it is just this short distance away. Let’s teleport." Augustus walked to the top of the hill ahead and pointed to the town not far ahead.
Leila and Augustus walked all the way, crossing the mountains and passing through the forests. During the journey, they encountered many villages. They lived in these places and were sometimes invaded by some monsters. Leila and Augustus would help them and then rest in the village. But generally speaking, Augustus always let Leila practice with these monsters first. If she encountered one that she couldn’t beat, she would wait until Leila had no strength left before taking action.
Leila felt depressed:"This world is purely for physical training. Why do wizards only fight in close combat? And the physiques of the people here are too outrageous." Of course, more importantly, Leila learned teleportation magic and instant movement. If she couldn’t beat them, she had to run fast.
As the magic circle was generated, Leila and Augustus teleported to the woods some distance away from the town.
"This is the town of Kalos. It's so big, there are so many magic shops inside."Lila started to get excited when she thought of some interesting magic tools.
"Well, just go and take a look, our travel expenses are almost gone."Ogast looked at the excited Leila and immediately poured cold water on her.
Walking into a magic shop, looking at the various display cabinets, there were many star spirit keys that Leila didn't know, and some ring magic. The cabinets were filled with magic potions of various effects, all attracting Leila's attention.
"If you equip yourself with magic tools, then you will be a pure krypton gold player if you fight with others. Forget it, this world is still determined by your own magic power."Lila looked at the dazzling array of goods with active thoughts.
There was really no need for Leila to buy these things, but he just found them interesting. The most interesting thing about coming to the magic world was to see all kinds of magic, but they were not very practical for him. However, there were some interesting magic props for daily use, but Leila had no money.
After Leila and Auguste had dinner in a restaurant, they came to a hotel and planned to stay there for one night.
"There is a train station in this town. We will take the train to Magnolia tomorrow. I heard there is a very powerful healing magician there. Let's go and see it." Of course, we will also go and see what the guild she created looks like.
"Take the train? Okay."Laila wondered why they suddenly had to take the train. Was it because they were in a hurry for something?
"Come to think of it, there seems to be a guild in Magnolia that is quite interesting, but also very good at getting into trouble."Lila thought that she was finally going to Magnolia, and looked at the Magic Weekly in her hand, which clearly stated [Fairy Tail's strongest S-class wizard Gildarts destroyed a mountaintop on Mount Altana.] At the same time, Leila was also observing August's reaction when he heard about this guild.
"By the way, Grandpa, what guild are you from?"
"I don't have a guild. Do you know the Albares Empire, the central country of the Western Continent? I am the strongest magic king of that country."Ougast stroked his beard, smiling meaningfully.
Of course, Leila knew these things, but she had no idea what happened after Ougast met Jellal. She opened the ancient magic to check.
"Grandpa, is this information all yours?"Although I was mentally prepared, looking at some of the superficial information of Auguste was already jaw-dropping. This information was more than some people could get in several lifetimes.
"Hahaha, it's not bad." August stroked his beard.
""Okay, okay, go to bed early." August urged Leila, who was still searching for information about the Albares Empire.
""Okay." Leila behaved very obediently. As for why, when she had just learned this magic, Leila stayed up late to read all the interesting information she could think of. She stayed up for several nights. One night after that, when August saw that Leila was still going to stay up late, he hit her on the head with a stick and she fell asleep. Then Leila learned her lesson.
August lay on the bed, thinking back to the time in Maple Leaf Village. August didn't think much about it, but when Leila heard August's name, her reaction was a little wrong. August noticed it and activated the magic of the divine eye. He found that Leila's soul was extremely unstable, but Leila's body had a huge magic power. If left alone, Leila's soul could not perfectly control her body. The magic in the body is like a bomb.
Although he was puzzled as to how Leila could know about Auguste's affairs when her memory was confused, Auguste was still worried.
He made him exercise and fight monsters along the way so that his body could gradually adapt to the body, so that the soul and body could be better coordinated to control his own magic power.
Of course, Auguste would observe Leila's condition in those months, and after she found that she had improved, Auguste was relieved and did not have to use soul stabilizing magic on Leila every night.
At first, it was just for the child's body, but after a long time of contact, he felt that this disciple was not simple and he was hiding many things.
The next morning, Leila opened her eyes, put on her clothes, and began to wash up in a daze.
"Good morning, Grandpa, where did you go for a drive?" Leila heard the sound of the door opening and turned to look at August who had returned from outside. How come Grandpa always wakes up so early? Is he getting younger and younger?
"Hurry up and wash up. I have already bought the ticket. I will pack up and leave. You can't get up every time. You are not as energetic as an old man like me."Ougast looked at the lazy Leila, with a face full of disappointment, and complained crazily
""Okay." Leila quickly finished washing and packed her luggage, then stood in front of August. Leila knew clearly that her grandfather couldn't stand seeing him being lazy. If he hadn't been busy, he would have made him exercise.
"Well, let's go." Augustus looked at Leila's attitude and nodded.
