Fairy Tail: Sun Eater

It's obvious, Alvarez Empire accepts Ben's proposal. They will manufacture the planes here. Of course, this is Ben's business, so he should be the one who builds everything. That means they should build the factory with his money.

But his wealth isn't limitless, so he needs to find investors, and Alvarez will help with that. The Empire has many wealthy people who want to invest in this project. Though the Empire itself won't join on the plane manufacture.

Instead, they will invest in the airports because airports need wide lands to build. The Empire also doesn't have limitless money, so they can't join everything. Even they need investors to build the airports, just like Ben.

Anyway, the business proposal has been accepted. There are still many things to do, but they can wait. The Empire will help Ben find investors, but it won't be done soon because the Empire itself is still being rebuilt after the war. Ben is also not in a hurry because he is on vacation with his family.

They will start this project after Ben finished his vacation. For now, he wants to enjoy his family time and sees different things all over the world. He wants his kids to know that there are many kinds of people in this world so that they won't be too proud of themselves.

Things go well on their vacation even though there are some problems too. Ben and Mira can solve all those things and they can even teach their kids the ways to solve those problems. There aren't many things that both of them can't solve, after all, so their vacation is still considered peaceful.

After a few months, they finally get the news of the 100 years quest completion. There aren't any casualties on their side, Fairy Tail Mages' side, which is a relief to them. Ben really wants to see their improvements after defeating some powerful Dragons.

"They must be very disappointed right now because they don't see us when they return. Your sisters will be very sad, especially Bella who was very attached to you."

"I know, but I won't return yet. This will be a good chance for them to grow without me by their sides."

"Fufu, I know what you mean. Usually, we won't be worried too much if there are problems we couldn't solve because you were always there. But now, they need to solve everything themselves because you aren't there."

"Yeah, I know they can do it because they can finish that 100 years quest without me. Well, I did help them get stronger, but they finish that job by themselves with their own power. I'm sure there won't be many problems they can't solve now."

Mira agrees, so they really won't return until they finish their vacation. But that doesn't mean they won't communicate with their family and friends. They have magic phones, so they can just call their family and friends.

Ben's sisters and Mira's siblings actually called them as soon as they returned to Magnolia. Those guys are disappointed to find that Ben, Mira, & the twins have left Ishgar to go on a vacation. They wanted to join, but Ben stopped them and told them to help the guild when he was away.

Of course, they were disappointed, but now they are quite excited. They want to show Ben that they can become very powerful when he's away. In 2 years, they will surprise Ben with their stronger selves. He is everyone's goal, after all. Everyone in the guild wants to be stronger than him, so this is a perfect chance to grow stronger and surprise him later.

Ben doesn't know about their plan and just enjoys his vacation. Time passes by and a year & a half finally passed since Ben started his vacation with his family. Right now, they are exploring the Guiltina continent after exploring Eastern Continent.

They are facing some bandits led by a Mage who try to rob them on their way between towns. But Ben and Mira are just watching from behind. Ariel and Gabriel are the ones who fight the bandits. They have learned magic and now they will put their training into practice.

Their magic is something that Ben has prepared for years. Ariel is taught Sun God Slayer Magic while Gabriel is taught Sun Dragon Slayer Magic. Both of them use lacrima crystals that took Ben 1 year each to make to perfection because he needed to crystallize his magic power, which is much more difficult than crystalizing dead magical beings like Dragons.

Anyway, he is very satisfied with the result of his hard work. His kids can defeat a group of bandits and a Mage by themselves. The leader Mage isn't strong, but the twins have just started learning magic not long ago, so this is a very good result.

Actually, Ben has another lacrima crystal, the Sun Demon Lacrima. He made it because it might be useful in the future and now he knows who will use it. Ben will pass his Sun Devil Slayer Magic to his 3rd child, that is still sleeping in Mira's belly.

Their 3rd child will be born after they finished their vacation, so it's a relief because it will be bad if the baby goes around in dangerous places. So to make sure that nothing goes wrong, they hasten their vacation. Ben even decides to cancel some things he needs to do in Guiltina so that they can go home faster.

The Cooper family finally go back to Magnolia 2 months earlier than their plan. Their family and friends are very happy to see them back. These guys have been waiting for a long time. They really want to show off their progress to Ben.

Ben entertains them after settling down for a few days. They surely have gotten stronger, but as usual, none of them is a match for Ben. Although some of them managed to hurt Ben and forced him to get rather serious, which shows that they've improved a lot when he wasn't here.

While waiting for his 3rd child to be born, Ben focuses on managing his plane manufacture plan. With Alvarez Empire's help and his personal connections, he finally gets a lot of investors to start this project. He starts by training some core personnel and building the factory.

They will start creating a plane model using the simplest blueprint that Ben has made. If things go well, then they can start mass-producing planes in a year. It would take longer if they didn't recruit the Machias race which is very proficient with machinery.

While things progressing smoothly with the new business, a big event emerges. 4 months after Ben returned, Mira finally gives birth to their 3rd child. It's a boy with blonde hair like Ben and fair skin like Mira. Ben named him Leonidas because his sharp gaze reminds Ben of the King of Sparta in the movie, Leonidas.

The celebration for Leonidas's birth is very big that the whole town is participating. After all, it's not just to celebrate the birth of Ben's 3rd child, but also to celebrate Ben's inauguration as the new Guild Master. He has promised Makarov to be the Guild Master after his child is born, and the old man literally passed the position after Leonidas was born.

Ben reluctantly accepts it because he has stalled it for too long. Makarov is already too old to be a Guild Master and the others are too irresponsible. He can only see Fairy Tail declining if he doesn't take over the Guild Master position as soon as possible.

There are many jobs waiting for him as a Guild Master, but he can handle those easily. Not only he was the one who created the new system that makes the job as a Guild Master easier, but he also has Clone Magic. He only needs to send his clones to work while he enjoys his time with his family.

After Ben becomes the Guild Master, it's Makarov's turn to enjoy life. The old man is going on a trip with his old friends. These old folks have been busy for years, so they really want to enjoy the last years of their lives happily.

Years went by and Fairy Tail has grown much stronger. However, they still don't have that many members compared to other big Guilds. Ben has made Fairy Tail into a Guild of elites that has an average number of members, but all of them are powerful.

Ben has applied many new systems in his Guild which are very effective at developing it. The new systems he applied included some new training systems. These new training systems are very effective to improve Fairy Tail Mages' power.

Right now, Fairy Tail has divided their Mages into E to S-Class. But to be S-Class Mages is very difficult in Fairy Tail. Even their A-Class Mages are as powerful as other Guilds' S-Class Mages. The S-Class exam that has become much more difficult makes Fairy Tail doesn't have new S-Class Mages for years.

After 10 years since Ben become the Guild Master, Fairy Tail's S-Class Mages are still of the old generations. Their current S-Class Mages are Laxus, Mira, Erza, Cana, Freed, Wendy, Natsu, Gray, and Gajeel. Ben isn't included as the Guild Master while Gildarts has retired and he becomes an instructor now.

Ben's children have become powerful too, especially the twins who are 16 y.o now. Their power is comparable to other Guilds' average S-Class Mages. But they are still just average A-Class in Fairy Tail. They might have the highest potential to be future Fairy Tail's S-Class, but it will take them a few years to achieve that.

As for the 10 y.o Leonidas, he also shows great talent in Magic, just like his siblings. But his peers are also very talented because Ben has recruited a lot of kids with high potential these years. Most of Fairy Tail's young Mages are very powerful for their ages, that's why Fairy Tail is acknowledged as the best Guild in Ishgar and can compete at the world level.

Ben's plane project also went smoothly. The use of planes is still limited to transporting people across the continents because of the power consumption and incomplete flight systems. But they keep improving those things and Ben hopes it will keep getting better because the plane is a safe mode of transportation.

Still, those are not the most important things in Ben's life. His family still matters the most to him and that is the reason he did all of that. Just seeing his children getting stronger is enough to make him happy because that means they can protect themselves in this dangerous world.

Seeing his sisters and in-laws become dependable and build their own families is also enough to make him happy. Elfman is married to Evergreen now, Lisanna is married to Laxus, Carla marries Happy, Bella marries Lily, Natsu marries Lucy, Gajeel marries Levy, Gray marries Juvia, and surprisingly, Wendy marries Romeo who is a few years younger than her.

Ben was very reluctant to let his sisters get married. But he knows he shouldn't stop them from pursuing their happiness. The only thing he could do was threaten their chosen men. He told them he would make them suffer if they make his sisters unhappy, which is still very effective to this day.

Their married lives are full of happiness even though things sometimes become bad. Ben's married life with Mira is not so different, but they can always solve the problems they faced. Both of them are happy with their lives even with all those problems.

Lives are always full of ups and downs, after all. They know that well, that's why they always enjoy happy times and do their best to get through their worst times. In this dangerous world, they still managed to pursue their happiness. Even with all the hardships he has faced in the past and will face in the future, Ben is really glad to get this 2nd life.
