Fairy Tail: Sun Eater

Ben train & do their jobs like usual after he finished the prototypes. The designs that he made will be a hot commodities. After he get the patent, many companies must've wanted to make contract for production of these machines.

Considering the use of lacrima crystals rather than mage's magic power, the new models can be sold to normal people. This mean they will have bigger market rather than just selling magic vehicles to mages. Bigger market means more profit too, so many companies will compete to gain the right to produce the vehicles.

However, Ben himself isn't bothered by that at all. He doesn't really care about money now, because he know power is more important in this world. If this is his past life, he will flip over in excitement, but now, power matter more to him.

Ben is fine as long as he have enough money to do & buy what he wanted. Automotif is his hobby, so he will do it when he want, but power is his need. This is a dangerous world, so he need to get stronger while enjoying his life too.

This car project is one thing that he want to do to enjoy his life. He have a dream car, but never have the chance to build it. Now he will build that car using his own hands. And this car even use magic, which is every boy's dream.

The next Sunday, Ben finally receive the patent. It takes a week for Roubaul's friends to finish the procedure. The patent will last for 20 years, so it's long enough for him to gain a lot of wealth.

'Hmm, it's the same as the average patent on earth, 20 years.'-Ben

Then surprisingly, the first that want to make a contract with Ben is the Magic Council & the Kingdom of Fiore itself. Ben just leave it to Roubaul's friends, because he's not good with something like this. He will be satisfied as long as he can get the materials to build his own car.

A week later, Ben get a bank account filled with money from the contract. There is 1 billion Jewel in it, that's a lot of money. All of it was just from the contract with Magic Council and the Kingdom. He will still get more from the selling percentage, but that's not a problem that Ben want to dwell into.

"It's strange for me to not have big reaction after seeing such amount of money. I guess with my priority changed, make me can't see money to be that valuable, huh? No matter how much money that i have, it can't buy a life. If it can, i will get as much money as possible to buy my family's life back."-Ben

Ben lament while looking at his overfilled bank account that seem useless to him. Bella who lay on his head pat him with her paws.

"I know girl, there's no used to think about that now. I need to think about more useful things right? Like these blocks of steel."-Ben

In front of Ben is a big stack of steel blocks. Roubaul's mysterious friends have sent the bank account together with these blocks. There are some blacksmithing tools too for him to process the steel blocks. As for how to heat it, he will do it with his hands rather than a furnace.

Ben never met these mysterious friends at all. Roubaul also never introduce them to him, and he didn't want to force it. It's not like he really need to know them. As long as they don't have bad intention, and really help him & his guild, then that's enough.

Ben then start to process the blocks of steel following his blueprint. Of course he'll make the engine first to test it. He will build it slowly, without rushing anything. Beside, he'll just work at it on Sunday or his free time, so he can't rush it anyway.

Ben build his car while training and doing missions like usual. Bella will always stay with him and help him take some tools like an assistant. Wendy & Carla also often come to watch him build his car.

There's also a shocking thing happen in this period. 3 weeks after she was born, Carla start to talk. Then 1 week later, Bella also start to talk. Carla usually talk a complete sentence, but Bella just talk word by word, not really a sentence.

"Ben. Milk!"-Bella grab Ben's feet when he's training in the cave

"You can take it yourself, Bella. Isn't that what you usually do?"-Ben

"Cold."-Bella said while shaking her head

"It's cold? You want me to warm it up?"-Ben ask, and Bella nod

"Alright, alright, princess."-Ben

"Princess!"-Bella is happy by how Ben call her

Bella really like to be called Princess since Ben told the girls about the story of some Princess stories that he know. The 3 really like them, and often play about it. They play act following the story that Ben told them, and they even show it to the guild members at dinner, amusing everyone.

Ben warm Bella's milk with his magic. Ben have learned a lot about magic now. He also learned about the normal fire & light magic, not just the dragon slayer. He learned more about the sun too, and found out a lot more about it.

Ben know there are more things that he still hasn't know. That's why he will keep learning to find all of that. As he get deeper to learn magic, he realize that it just keep getting bigger & deeper too. For him, magic is like an ice mountain.

"Here's your warm milk, Your Majesty."-Ben give the warm milk to Bella

"Thank you, love Ben."-Bella take the milk happily

"I love you too. Now let me train, and you can drink your tasty milk."-Ben rub Bella's head

Ben continue his training, and keep pushing his limit. Ben always push his limit everytime he train. He always like the growth that he gain after pushing his limit and surpass it. Because of that, Ben grow a lot stronger than 4 months ago when he start to train in the cave.

Ben's stats 4 months ago:

[Name: Ben Cooper

Age: 11

Status: Alive

MP: 1547/9832

STR: 40

AGI: 34

STA: 41

INT: 37]

Current stats:

[Name: Ben Cooper

Age: 11

Status: Alive

MP: 271/18,729

STR: 57

AGI: 52

STA: 58

INT: 69]

Ben's overall growth is very fast, a lot faster than last year. However, the fastest stat to grow is his INT, because he keep receiving the knowledge from Roubaul's book of magic that the A.I Chip have stored.

His rapid growth scared even Roubaul, and make the old man worried. Roubaul worried that Ben's body won't be able to hold his rapid growth. Ben grow more in these 4 months than the previous 1 year. He is growing 3 or 4 times faster, so Roubaul have the right to be worried.

Roubaul's biggest worry is dragon slayer's trait after they become too strong, Dragonization. Ben's rapid growth that seem to be getting faster make Roubaul worried that Ben will turn into a dragon before he even become too strong.

But Ben can eased Roubaul's worry by saying that his 'Dragon' who gave him the magic have created a counter measure for Dragonization. Ben didn't know if he will turn into a dragon or not in the future, but he need to ease the old man now. Beside, A.I Chip will warn him if something strange happen to his body.

~8 months later~

It's been 8 months since Ben start his car project, so it's 12 months or 1 year since his intense training. He worked on his car every Sunday, while training & doing jobs on the other days. And finally, today he finished his dream car after 8 months.

Ben's dream car is based on a Crush Gear, Garuda Phoenix. But of course he have many change on it. There's no way he'll have a Crush Gear with all it's weapons to run on the road with many people around.

The most obvious changes is that it didn't have any weapon, be it in front, sides, and rear. At least that's what visible, because those weapons are hidden. He place some spells that will release the weapons that have same design with the real thing. He even add some new weapons using his own spells.

As for color, he change the base blue-silver color into red-black color, with golden linings. Of course he also made windows, doors, mirrors, and other parts of cars. The Garuda Phoenix is just the base design, so he didn't make one.

"Finally it finished, and it's right at the time for my first mission outside."-Ben

It's been 2 years since he arrived in this world, so he is a 12 y.o now. That means Roubaul will let him take outside jobs with Wendy & their cats. So his car really finished at the right time.

"World, here i come."-Ben grin
