"Can someone like me, who has no magical talent, also learn magic?!"
Cornelia looked at Medivh with a bewildered expression.
Yes, as Gildarts' wife, Cornelia had naturally considered practicing magic, but her talent was simply too poor. No matter how simple the magic, she couldn't master it and eventually had to give up.
"Of course..."
"As long as you are willing to work hard, there's nothing that cannot be forged."
Medivh nodded slightly, comforting Cornelia, while he spoke, he added the attribute of a dragon to Cornelia's body...
Because Cornelia's talent was too terrible, so terrible that Medivh had rarely seen such a case in his life!
If Medivh were to immediately give Cornelia powerful but overly complex attributes, it would only hinder her progress.
For this, the Dragon attribute Medivh gave Cornelia was'Strength'.
It's an attribute where one can enhance their magic power by simply training their body diligently. At the same time, one can release their strength as a roar, which is quite simple and direct.
Originally, the'Strength' Dragon Slayer attribute was a conceptual dragon Medivh developed specifically to deal with Acnologia, who was almost completely magic-immune in the magic world, inspired by muscle magic.
Unfortunately, Medivh had thought things too simply...
This self-created conceptual Dragon Slayer Magic had a low upper limit and could not be cultivated to the level of Saitama-sensei in "One-Punch Man," so it simply couldn't kill Black Dragon King Acnologia.
Because of this, Medivh abandoned this attribute...
However, although this magic couldn't deal with Acnologia, it was more than enough to deal with Gildarts.
Muscle Dragon Slayer Magic combined with the charm attribute of Ice Devil Slayer Magic.
The combination of Strength and Succubus! Enough to squeeze that scoundrel Gildarts dry!
Medivh just wanted to see if Gildarts, who constantly looked down on him, was really as strong as he claimed! Hopefully, he wouldn't end up like him, just soaking goji berries in a thermos every day.
"In short, from now on, go lift weights properly, Cornelia!"
"Reading can't defeat Gildarts, but training muscles can..."
Medivh loudly told Cornelia, who was lying on the hospital bed in front of him, delicate and frail.
"As long as I can defeat Gildarts!"
"Even if it means selling my soul, I won't hesitate!"
"From today onwards, the lady Cornelia of the past is dead. From now on, only Cornelia Alperona, the Magician of the Muscle School, lives in this world."
Cornelia seemed to be awakened by Medivh, the male spirit hidden deep in her heart. She swore she would make that old scoundrel Gildarts awaken the female in his heart.
"Good! Cornelia, I have faith in you..."
"Go burn down the library!"
"Say goodbye to your past completely. We're going to build the biggest gym in the Fiore Kingdom..."
Medivh once again pointed out the path for Cornelia.
"I'm going to say goodbye to my past right now."
Cornelia's eyes burned with fierce flames. Although she hadn't joined the Fairy Tail Guild yet, her synchronization with the Fairy Tail members had already reached over eighty percent, making her practically a chosen Fairy Tail Magician.
How to put it?!
Perhaps this is what they call, 'like attracts like,' right?!
However, for some unknown reason, this story of abandoning literature for martial arts, as it spread, transformed from 'the Cornelia of the past is dead' into simply 'Cornelia is dead.'
Hmm, please don't take it out of context, please don't take it out of context!
Fairy Tail Guild.
"Cornelia! My Cornelia!!!"
Gildarts wiped away tears, loudly reminiscing about his only lost love.
In the following days.
Because Cornelia had to train her muscles and Medivh had to go into seclusion, neither of them had time to take care of Cana. Therefore, at Medivh's suggestion, a year later...
In X773.
The two sent Cana to the Fairy Tail Guild to find her scoundrel father.
Unfortunately, that scoundrel Gildarts was on a mission at the time and wasn't at the Guild.
It was because of this missed encounter, coupled with Gildarts not recognizing Cana as his daughter after returning to the Fairy Tail Guild, that Cana became exceptionally silent and kept the secret of being Gildarts' biological daughter bottled up in her heart, struggling silently for five years.
Just like that, time flew by.
In a blink of an eye, it was early X774.
"Speaking of which!"
"Deliora is going to attack Gray's village in a few days, right?!"
"What would happen if I went there now?"
"Would a strange phenomenon occur, like me encountering myself from the simulation mission within the simulation?!"
Thinking this, Medivh left a letter for Cornelia. The general content of the letter was that he was going on a long journey, and both the gym and the library were entrusted to Cornelia to manage.
By the way, although Cornelia said she would burn down the library, she didn't actually burn it down. Instead, she entrusted it to outsiders to manage...
What Cornelia burned was the library in her heart. Now, her eyes only saw the words 'muscle.' This filled Medivh with lingering fear. He even worried for Gildarts; once Cornelia reached mastery, wouldn't she crush Gildarts?
Thinking about it, Medivh felt a little excited. He couldn't wait to see Gildarts' broken expression.
Then, just before Medivh reached the eastern part of the Fiore Kingdom, that world of ice and snow, the simulation time ended! Therefore, unfortunately, he failed to meet another version of himself from a different timeline a few days later.
Time returned to June, X779, summer.
Fiore Kingdom.
Magnolia Town.
In Medivh's villa, he slowly opened his eyes.
"Hoo!"
The first thing Medivh did upon waking, without any hesitation, was to extract his rewards from the simulation.
"System! Extract rewards!"
At this moment, Medivh was already impatient to improve his strength.
"Boom!"
With a roar...
Medivh's magic power instantly rose by a large tier, from the original 'Heavenly King' level to the level of the Spriggan 12.
Medivh estimated his strength. With his current power, even without using Dragon Slayer Magic and entering Dragon Force, he could fight God Serena, who had trained in the West Continent, to a draw.
As for Medivh in Dragon Force, he wouldn't need a second punch to deal with Serena!
"Progress! Getting stronger! Awesome!"
Medivh stretched his body, a slight smile on his face.
"Buzz!"
Just as Medivh was engrossed in his continuous progress, accompanied by a roar, a teleportation gate appeared in front of him. 'Moon God Dragon' Selene and Eileen, the two women, returned together to Medivh's villa and entered Medivh's room directly.
"Oh, Medivh~"
