Chairman of The Magic Council 177 Children (Patreon)

On the top of the sea, there was a strong yet luxurious ship that was sailing.

The speed of this ship was very fast, and some people could only look at this ship with amazement, but then when they saw a familiar symbol on the sea, they quickly understood and didn't feel that surprise anymore since it was a ship that was made by Walter Consortium.

Mirajane had told Bourne that her brother and sister would come back tomorrow and he decided to come with her to welcome his sibling-in-law, even though, he might meet someone that he didn't want to meet.

However, his wife and children wanted to see both Elfman and Lisanna.

They had been separated for seven years, and he didn't think too much about that person since it had been seven years.

His mind had become more mature and he also wanted to see both Elfman and Lisanna, especially when both of them didn't even see him marry their sister in the past.

"Mr. Walter, thank you for your help."

"Yes, without you, the Fairy Tail might be destroyed."

Macao Conbolt and Wakaba Mine said at the same time and looked at Bourne with respectful gaze since he was the one who had helped them in their dire moment.

When the main members of the Fairy Tail disappeared, as expected, the situation of the Fairy Tail became worse, and there were a lot of people who decided to quit from the guild since they couldn't receive a job.

After all, what made Fairy Tail popular was the main members along with the S-Level Magicians within the guild, and without all of that, this guild was very weak and it didn't have something that could attract someone to put their request, jobs, or quests on this guild.

In the end they asked Mirajane for help, and as expected, Mirajane came directly to him and begged him to help the Fairy Tail with teary eyes.

If it was before, Bourne might not want to help Fairy Tail since this decided to keep Gray, but at the same time, he had to admit that he felt a bit impressed by this guild since it didn't fear him and decided to keep Gray.

Without Gray on that guild, his impression was quite good, and he also knew that there were a lot of secrets on this guild.

Along with his wife begging him, in the end, he decided to help the Fairy Tail.

Not by lending them money, but rather by giving them a stable job.

Bourne didn't want to borrow them a money since he didn't think that they could pay him, and it was better to give them a job. Even though the jobs that he had given them didn't have a very huge remuneration, it was stable, quite safe, and it could be done by most of the guild members since it didn't need a powerful magician.

However, because of that, Fairy Tail couldn't keep their big headquarters and change their location into a more modest place.

However, they were grateful to Bourne since they had given them a job and lent them a new headquarters, even though, it wasn't more modest and small than their previous headquarters.

If Bourne decided to lend them money, they wouldn't be grateful toward him, rather they would complain secretly, thinking that he was very stingy by asking them to pay him back, even though he had lent them money.

It was also hard to ask them to give his money back, considering Fairy Tail was his wife's guild. Even if she had retired, she still had a feeling for this guild since this was the place where she stayed after she was thrown out from her village.

By giving them a job, Bourne could make them more respectful toward him and made them think that they were unable to live without him since he was the one who provided them a job.

It was similar to the proverb from his previous life.

"Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach him how to fish and you feed him for a lifetime."

Humans were very complex beings, but manipulating the members of the Fairy Tail, without using his magic was a very simple thing for him.

"You don't need to think too much. I also want to meet Lisanna and Elfman as soon as possible after all," Bourne said,

"Dad, so where are we really going to meet my uncle and aunt?"

"Is there also a mom's twin too, dad?"

Bourne looked at his two children, one was a boy and the other one was a girl.

The boy was Walter Ford, he was his son with Mirajane, and the other one was Walter Violet, his daughter with Erza Knightwalker. Both of them had black hair, similar to him, but their appearance was mixed between their mothers and his own.

Bourne patted their heads and said, "Well, you'll see them soon."

"They're on the sea, right?" Violet asked.

"If I'm not wrong, it is because of their unique magic, "Fairy Sphere", that they can stay in the water, right?" Ford asked.

Bourne read most of the magic archives that were kept at the headquarters of the Fairy Tail and he also told his family most of the magic in this world.

"Yes." Mirajane, who was leaning beside Bourne, nodded, hearing her son's question. "You'll meet your uncle and aunt, but you need to call them, big sister, and big brother, alright? They are still single and haven't married after all."

"Alright."

Ford nodded and didn't think too much, though he was a bit curious about his mother's siblings.

"Mom, your twin is in there too, right?" Violet asked.

Erza nodded and said, "Yes." She also leaned beside Bourne, and didn't move away from him since it felt comfortable. She didn't think too much about Erza in this world, but since her daughter wanted to meet Erza from this world, she didn't really mind.

"But she isn't my twin. She's my counterpart."

"Counterpart? What's the difference?" Violet asked.

Ford didn't say anything, but he was also looking at his other mother too.

In truth, both of them decided to escape from the training and lesson that was taught by Ur, Ultear, and Erza. Even though, they could become the second rich generation easily because of their father, their father and mothers wouldn't let them to become lazy and they also needed to train every day.

However, they were naturally quite smart and used this reunion to escape from the training which caused their other siblings to look at them with envious gaze.

"Well, I'll explain to the two of you later, but first, can you deal with that monster first?"

Bourne pointed his finger in some direction and everyone followed, before they could see a huge shark that was moving toward the direction of their ship.

"Yes!" 2x

Ford and Violet didn't hesitate and jumped into the sea directly, after all, they were Bourne's children, and of course, the magic that they inherited was "water" magic.

"Is that alright?" Wakaba asked with a helpless expression, watching how both Ford and Violet jumped into the sea directly.

"You don't need to worry, they're very strong," Mirajane said with a smile and felt proud since her son was strong.

"Yeah, they're very strong." Erza nodded. She was a captain with an army and of course, she wanted her daughter to be strong too since without strength, they might not be able to protect themselves.

As expected, both of them could easily defeat the giant shark that was about to attack their ship.

"........."

Some of the members of the Fairy Tail were speechless by two children.

When both of them returned, Ford and Violet seemed to walk directly to their father, asking for praise.

Bourne used his magic to dry their clothes and bodies, then patted their heads, giving them a nod, before restarting their journey to the go to the Tenrou Island which was about to appear on the surface of the sea again.
