Ben finally goes home after the war finished. He leaves after meeting Mira for a moment. Now he is on his way home by driving his Light Runner. On the way, Ben is thinking about the Fairy Law that Makarov used.
"Hmm, from the name of that spell, I can guess that it derived from Law Spell, a kind of Black Magic. That is very strong magic but very difficult to master. This Fairy Law seems to be a simplified version though. But what's the connection of this magic and the feeling that I sensed?" ponders Ben.
Ben has AI Chip analyze that magic but there's no result until now. He lacks sufficient data to analyze it. He has scanned Law spell, but that alone isn't enough. After all, he never used or see someone use Law directly.
"Well, let's not think much about it. I can think about it slowly, no need to rush things. Everything needs process," says Ben as he drives faster.
After driving for 2 hours, Ben finally arrives in his village. His sisters welcome him excitedly even though he just left for a few days. He gives them some souvenirs that he has bought before he goes to meet Roubaul.
In the guild building, Ben reports everything that happened in these few days to the old man. Roubaul doesn't talk much and just gives him some old man's advice before telling him to rest. This report is just a formality for both of them as a guild. As long as they return from their job safely, then Roubaul won't have a problem with anything else.
Following the old man's advice, Ben takes a rest for the rest of the day. Then the next day, he starts his plan to teach Wendy some important enchantments. She has a great talent for enchantment, so he needs to support it.
"Wendy, you have learned a few enchantments that Grandeeney has taught you. But those aren't enough to make you a good enchanter. There are many enchantments in the world and you can even use any spell as enchantment if you are skilled enough," says Ben.
"Eh? Any spell can be used as enchantment?" asks Wendy confusedly.
"Yeah, as long as you understand that spell really well. You need to understand how it works, how it's built, every part of that spell," says Ben.
Wendy is getting more confused, so Ben explains it slowly. It is easy for him who has AI Chip to break down any spell that he has learned to its details. He can understand everything with AI Chip's help, but it will be very difficult for Wendy.
However, he believes in her potential to do the same thing in the future. She already shows great talent in it, so she just needs some guidance and support to grow. Wendy is also still young, so she still had a lot of room to learn new things.
Since that day, Ben is focused on teaching Wendy about enchantments. He still trains, that's for sure because he always trains every day. Also, he trains Wendy, Carla, and Bella in combat a few hours a day while teaching Wendy enchantments.
Wendy is 12 now, so per their guild's rule, she can take jobs already. That's why Ben needs to prepare her for it. Roubaul won't give her difficult jobs, but anything can happen while she is in a job, so he needs to prepare her for any situation.
Days and weeks are passed with Ben busy teaching Wendy & the cats while also training himself. Wendy also has gone on a few small jobs in nearby locations. They're just easy jobs to give her some experience.
All her jobs are monster subjugations, just like Ben's usual jobs. Well, their guild is located in a forest and close to mountains, so the most common jobs are monster subjugations. Also, fighting with monsters doesn't need much consideration like fighting humans, so it's the best job for newbies like Wendy.
When she is taking jobs, Ben also joins her as supervisor. But he won't get involved directly because they're Wendy's and Carla's jobs. He is there to give her some guidance and help if something goes wrong.
But so far, Wendy and Carla are doing good in their jobs. Although as newbies, they always make mistakes every once in a while, they could always solve them themselves. Ben is very satisfied with their performances, be it individually or as a team.
Ben also went to Magnolia every weekend to meet and have a date with Mira. They are still taking things easy in their relationship. Both of them just want to enjoy their time together at their own pace.
Also, Ben taught Mira some knowledge about Take Over Magic that he has scanned in the Magic Library. She really has great talent in Take Over and learns everything that Ben taught fast. What Ben taught now, Mira will be able to do it the next week.
It's different from Elfman that needs more time to learn. He is someone who uses muscle more than the brain, so it's understandable. But once he succeeds, his progress will be fast, still not as fast as Mira though.
During his visits to Magnolia, Ben also gets a piece of irritating news. Makarov didn't use the video record that he gave to save Fairy Tail. Well, Fairy Tail is safe from punishment and Phantom Lord gets disbanded, but it still pissed him off that Makarov didn't use what he gave.
Makarov said to him that giving it to the Council will just make things worse for Fairy Tail. Their relationship with the Council is very bad while both Siegrain and Ultear are seen as good members. The Council will believe more in both of them rather than Fairy Tail.
Makarov has shown it to his friend in Magic Council. But that friend said that the chance of his video record being judged as a fake is very high. It will just cause a bigger problem for Fairy Tail and him, so it's better to hide it.
Besides, if both Siegrain and Ultear know that their secret has been discovered, they will move more carefully. If that happens, Makarov's friend won't be able to do a secret investigation to uncover their motives.
Ben can only accept that and leave it to these old men. It's not like he cares about the things in the Council. It's all politics and he doesn't like it even a bit. He won't trouble himself taking care of something that he doesn't like.
That's why right now Ben just does what he wants to do. He trains his sisters and works on his relationship with Mira. He also takes a few jobs with Wendy. Of course, they're not S-Class jobs so Wendy can get involved and learn.
Then in October, Mira invited him to attend Fantasia Parade that will be held on October 15. Too bad that Ben has taken a job already for that day, so he can't come. Mira is sad that she is late on inviting Ben because she wants him to see her in the beauty contest.
"I'm sorry for being unable to come. I will make up for it in the future," says Ben apologetically through lacrima vision.
"Then you need to come next year, alright? What happens now is also my fault because I didn't tell you earlier. But next year you should come because I've told you now," says Mira.
"Alright, I will. Good luck with the contest. Tell those who look at you with lewd eyes that I will poke their eyeballs out of their sockets," says Ben while smiling 'evilly'.
Mira giggles hearing that and says that she will do it first before him. Their jokes will scare people if being heard. They keep talking without knowing that something out of their prediction will happen at this Festival.
