Chapter 60
🕑 Added 2021-02-25 11:49:13 +0000 UTCFor just a couple of seconds, Aidan peered into Makarov's wrinkled face, when suddenly his foot stepped onto the calmly flowing water of the river. He did not drown as he should, but calmly stood on the solid surface of the ice. Makarov grunted in displeasure and narrowed his eyes, at the same moment Aidan rushed sharply in his direction, simultaneously waving his hand. The entire river instantly turned into ice for tens of meters, which spread farther and farther with noticeable speed. Aidan had dealt with melee mages before, so he knew a couple of tricks. The ice seals will definitely not help here, Makarov simply will not let him create them, or even allowing him - he will simply destroy, such a loss, even with Aidan's reserves of magic, will be difficult to accept.
Makarov started at once. Unlike a simple partial enlargement of the arm, this time the old man stretched out himself, he assumed the size of a huge giant, easily towering over any of the children in the exam, trees, and possibly most of the Fiora mountains. The real Titan has appeared! His clothes evaporated and were replaced by a huge pumped up torso. The old man's hair and mustache rose sharply, and golden lights lit up in his eyes. The symbol of Fairy Tail grew on his chest, and then the old man grinned, with his huge mouth. He looked really impressive!
There was no time to marvel and admire. Aidan turned sharply and ran the other way down the river.
- Let's see what you have enough grandpa! Chase two ... - Aida's face changed abruptly, as soon as a huge shadow covered him, he instantly slid to the side leaving his hand to his side. Then a roar thundered, but Makarov was not going to stop, with his hand, as if with a bucket, he destroyed all the ice in his path, trying to get Aidan as if catching a small ant. All the guy could do was to break the distance, jumping over the pieces of ice. He was only a meter away from the hand, which raised a wave of water and ice, if he hesitated for a moment it would simply swallow him.
"Hell!" - Aidan wanted to break the distance and cross the river in the other direction, because he already knew that the old man would dare to stop him, but he underestimated his speed. Trying to jump over the hand will be a mistake, he will immediately catch it. Moreover, you can't move twenty meters to the sides, the old man chose a distance that he could cover alone, that's why ... In the other direction there was a crash and a scream, Bickslow tried to go through again, but Makarov threw him once again, he easily followed behind two opponents at the same time. But suddenly, a stream of lightning burst on Bickslow's side, and then Laxus tried to use the opportunity to make his move.
"Hmm ..." - the thought came by itself, Aidan decided to use something of his own ... Waving his hand towards the old man's palm, it abruptly began to be covered with ice, but, of course, everything was unsuccessful. But, Aidan stopped abruptly, clasped his palms and a huge ice spear appeared above his head, at one of his orders, it burst out towards Makarov, aiming right at the head. At such a maneuver, the old man just snorted, once again throwing Laxus back, and then trying to slap Aidan with his other hand. The distance between the two palms remained no more than ten meters. From the moment the ice mage stepped onto the water, no more than ten seconds had passed.
Aidan was as tense as possible, he planned to use his experience with melee magicians in this confrontation, but in reality nothing really worked out, Makarov suppressed in all aspects, it is not at all clear what he was counting on ... But, there was something else !
Finally, when the distance between his palms was reduced to five meters, Aidan clenched his hand into a fist and the spear halfway shuddered sharply and exploded right next to Makarov's head. For a moment the old man hesitated, that was enough for Aidan. One of the weaknesses of melee mages is their perception!
Sliding abruptly over the icy palm, Aidan climbed onto Makarov's hand and under his feet everything was covered with ice, as if Aidan rushed forward along the rink, it would be foolish to run between two hands, especially at the speed of an old man, his fingers literally covered the width of a thirty-meter river. Makarov obviously succumbed, he calculated the speed - otherwise he could have just slapped the kids inadvertently, but he did not slow down, yet it was an exam. So the only way to get across the river is to use Makarov's fingers and then ...
With a sharp movement, Aidan slipped forward, covering the old man's fingers with dark ice, then finally Makarov again concentrated, just blowing on the ice that obstructed the view. Frowning, he jerked his palm and Aidan instantly lost his balance, but that was what he expected. Not wasting even a second on holding in the air, he waved his hand and a chain with a hook broke out of it, no more than ten meters remained to the shore. At an unimaginable speed, the hook plunged into the ground. Meanwhile, Makarov sharply clenched his hand, but Aidan had already jumped into the air, bypassing his tenacious grip, only the old man did not stop there and his clenched fist burst upward!
Laxus and Bixlow wasted no time in grabbing their chance while Aidan fought the old man and distracted attention. All this time, Cana did not even budge. She has long understood that this stage of the exam is her limit. She should have lost on the first, if not for Aidan. Smiling bitterly, the girl sat down on the grass and continued to watch this sea test. Everything looked impressive, Aidan deftly dodged the Master's grip and burst out under a hail of dark snowflakes, meanwhile, Bickslow flew out from the other side on his two dolls, and Laxus jumped forward with the help of lightning.
Makarov snorted and shook his free hand directing it towards these two cunning ones. They again decided to use a simple breakout method, hoping that Makarov had lost his guard. Big mistake! Only the next moment something unexpected happened, pursued by his palm in the air, Aidan sharply clenched his palm into a fist and an ice column a couple of meters thick appeared right out of the water in front of Makarov's other palm, Makarov slowed down for a moment, and from both sides, then- then Aidan pulled the hook sharply and the chain began to contract with an apparent speed - the guy began to be pulled to the other side. Deftly bypassing the Master's fist, he finally reached the other shore. Meanwhile, Bickslow was not lucky, he decided to cover his friend, giving Laxus a chance, who timely used Aidan's ice column and was able to push off and accelerate in the air.
Aidan touched the other side of the shore, and in just a couple of seconds Laxus reached it, crashing into a tree, blowing it to pieces. He was rushing forward so hard that he did not calculate the speed.
Makarov frowned at Aidan, and then sharply began to decrease in size. He was really quite impressed. He passed the exam in a matter of seconds bypassing such a serious obstacle!
