Axel and Erza have delivered the flower and they have received the reward. Erza was walking beside Axel while holding his hand. Both of them entered a café and then Axel decided to contact Makarov. He took out Cana's calling card and contacted her.
Axel: Cana how have you been??
Cana: I am fine, how is your mission going??
Axel: Regarding that, can you let me talk to master for a bit??
Cana: Yes sure.
After a few moments, Makarov's voice was heard from the card.
Makarov: Hello kids how are you and how is your mission going on??
Axel: Are you in private??
Makarov: Wait for a bit.
Makarov again answered after a few moments.
Makarov: Tell me what happened??
Axel: Nothing much we completed the mission but we want to take a short leave.
Makarov: How long??
Axel: About 2 months.
Makarov: Oh so kid you want to spend some private time with your new girlfriend??
Erza spat out her drink when she heard that.
Erza: Ho—How did you know??
Makarov: The whole guild knows about you two.
Axel: Well, thanks, master.
Makarov: Well kids have fun, see you in 2 months.
After that Axel disconnects the call and saw that Erza was fuming.
Erza: I will kill that white-haired demon and that alcoholic.
Axel: Maybe you shouldn't have boasted so much in front of them.
Erza: *sigh* Maybe you are right but now everyone knows about us.
Axel: Look at the bright side we don't need to hide anything from others after we return.
Erza: You are right. Then what's the plan?
Axel: Uhhh…. Let's see.
~TIMESKIP 2 MONTHS~
Currently, Erza was returning to Magnolia on a train. Axel was not with her because he was summoned by the Magic Council since last month Axel wanted to kill a Death Watch that was killing humans without any provocation and ended up splitting a mountain range. Erza saw Axel's full power and she was both shocked and proud to see how strong Axel was. The council heard from the villagers about how Axel split the mountains and after hearing that they decided to make him a wizard saint.
They also knew that Axel belonged to Fairy Tail guild so they contacted Makarov regarding this matter. Axel at first declined the offer but Makarov kept nagging him saying that if he takes up that position then the council will have a favorable view of their guild and it will not drive him to an early grave. Finally, Axel reluctantly decided to accept the position of a wizard saint.
While Erza was returning to Magnolia via train she overheard some men talking about Lullabuy a dark magic or an item which was made by Zeref and they were trying to use it. She found out that those men belonged to a dark guild named Eisenwald. She knew that she could easily take care of the whole guild because of the power she held now. But then she decided to ask for help from other members since the lives of innocent peoples were involved.
~WITH AXEL~
He was currently standing inside Magic Council waiting for the Magic Saints to call him inside. After some time the doors opened and he was invited inside. He saw 4 men were sitting aside from the rest. These four men had magic power almost equal to Axel but if Axel did his Djinn Equip then all of them together couldn't beat him. Axel knew who these 4 were, the Gods of Ishgar.
The rest of 5 men were sitting on a round table. Axel saw them and he had an amusing smile over his face since master Makarov was also present there.
Makarov: Glad you were able to make it.
Axel: Well the journey had its perks.
Seigran: Axel care to take a seat.
After that Axel sat on the round table. The 4 Gods of Ishgar weren't even paying attention to the meeting which annoyed Axel to the next level.
Axel: So what position are you offering me??
Jose: Of course the 10th wizard saint.
Axel: Well then you can keep your position and put it where the sun doesn't shine.
Hearing what Axel said everyone was enraged except Makarov who had a worried expression over his face.
Wolfheim: Kid, watch your mouth you are strong but respect what you are given or you might die.
Axel got up from his seat and walked towards Wolfheim, the rest of Saints knew that Axel was going to die and Makarov was getting worried by each moment. He was thinking of begging in front of Wolfheim so that he can spare Axel but that was not needed. Axel stood in front of Wolfheim and for the first time after coming to this world he released his full power without holding anything back.
Axel didn't point his pressure towards Makarov so he was spared from kneeling which was the fate of the rest of the saints. And as for the matter for Gods of Ishgar all of them were sweating including God Serena but only he could have taken up Axel.
Axel: Care to try you old fart….??
Hyberion: H—How can you have so much magic.
Axel: That is not important.
God Serena: I cannot believe someone so not handsome equal to my godly being.
Axel: What the f*ck are you on about? I am talking with the old fart here and if you don't shut up and I will punch you so hard that you have to put toothbrush up your ass to brush your teeth.
God Serena: Such insolence.
Hyberion: Wait, why don't we talk this out? We can arrange for you to be one of our members.
Warrod: From now on we can be known as Five Gods of Ishgar, what do you say Axel summers?
Axel stops pressuring all of them and the magical pressure disappears as soon as it appeared.
Axel: I like the sound of that.
Wolfheim: Oh, glad to know that we are now on the same foot.
Axel: So now what I have to do to make it official??
Warrod: Nothing much just some papers and we have to hand over you an emblem. That will be the proof of you being a God of Ishgar.
Axel: Ohhhh… I like the sound of it.
After they spent 30 minutes to fill-up the documents and Axel is given the rank of 2nd wizard Saint. Even though he was not given the position of 1st but he was still satisfied and he knew he can take that position any time he wants. He just needed to beat the shit out of God Serena. Then he was given an emblem that will denote Axel being a God of Ishgar. They also decide that they will announce that they appointed another God of Ishgar but they are not going to reveal his identity now. Axel was also fine with this since he hated to gather attention so that he can spend his time with Erza without getting disturbed.
