Third POV
Ars and Erza walked out of the village, whose chief informed them about the details of the mission.
The subjugation of Stone Bull that had terrorised the farms of the Sunflower village, and even attacked the village a few times.
The duo of Fairy Tail headed towards the place, where the Bull was last seen.
"I am surprised you kept your calm in that situation."The red head asked, recalling the events prior where the village chief had looked down on them due to their age.
"Everyone's entitled to their own beliefs.There wasn't much point in getting angry and arguing."Ars shrugged, causing Erza to raise her brows."Besides, if I were in his place I may have behaved similarly myself."
"That's surprisingly wise."Erza's words caused Ars to chuckle, confusing her."What? Did I say something?"
"It's funny really." He shook his head, still chuckling. "You lot seem to be surprised at even the smallest thing."
"Old man Makarov with my acceptance, Gray with me beating Natsu and you being similar to that old man." Ars said giving a toothy grin. "Should I expect more people to be surprised just by the fact I can breathe and talk?"
"I apologise if that made you feel uncomfortable."Ars shrugged at Erza's words." It's just that, those things are surprising for those your age.Most your age are hot blooded and reckless."
" There is no need to apologise."
Suddenly Ars stopped walking, seemingly alarmed, causing Erza to come to a stop as well.
"What's wrong?" Ars signalled towards the small passage into the forest, passage littered with hoof marks.
"These seem to be fresh."Ars kneeled down, observing the spot and looking around.Looking ahead he could see the broken branches of the smaller trees and bushes.
The duo of Fairy Tail Mage carefully followed the trail left behind by the bull, soon enough encountering the said beast sleeping.
"I assume you won't be intervening?"Ars asked the redhead beside him.Erza had only intervened when speaking to the client ,who requested the Quest.
"No.Though if the situation becomes dire or if you ask, I will."The soon to be S-class mage said firmly to her new companion.
Ars simply nodded his head, relieved, before turning towards the Stone Bull he had to subjugate.
'A Stone Bull has poor senses, except for their sight.' The young Wood mage began to formulate his plans, to take down the beast.
Ars started heading towards the beast, leaving Erza who was vigilantly observing him.

Erza Pov
Ars Sequen, the newest member of Fairy Tail, a seemingly normal person and a mage, if one didn't know any better.
The fact that he was recommended by someone, whose letter alone made Master Makarov made the most nervous I had ever see, only makes him more mysterious.
Someone with tremendous Magic Power that is kept hidden by him and an eye for detail, else he wouldn't have noticed those hoof marks.
'What is he planning?' I observed as he went towards the Stone Bull and started taunting the beast.
Immediately as the beast got up, Ars started running deep into the forest with the rocky creature following behind.
[ Requip: Flight Armor ]
An armour reminiscent to that of a cheetah, with few protection manifested upon my body.
I prepared myself to intervene at a moments notice, if the situation became dire.I watched as he continued to raced through the forest with relative ease, all while the bull charged at him trampling all in its wake.
I kept up with the him, making sure keep an eye on him.Soon we neared a mountain cliff, though Ars didn't stop, he continued to race ahead with a smile adorning his face.
"Idiot."I muttered as I rushed ahead, though before I could intervene I saw a sight that shocked me.
Ars started running on the wall as if he we running on the ground, unbothered by gravity.
The bull, following Ars, tried to come to a halt but the speed at which it was running at and the various wooden knots Ars manifested didn't allow it to stop, hurling the beast crashing into the cliff.
**BBAAANNGGGG**
The beast slumped down from the impact, quivering as it tried to get up.It stood up unsteadily, before Ars leaped off the cliff.
An orb of pure Magic Power, ethernano, spinning rapidly
Magic Power, ethernano, started gathering in his hand as it condensed into an orb, which seemed to be rotating?
[ Rasengan ]
Ars slammed the spinning orb of magic power onto the bull's back, breaking it and ending the beasts life.
I just stood there, completely baffled at what just happened in front of me.
'Did he plan the entire thing?' I thought as I looked at the back of the beast, completely torn apart.' No, the more important question is, What was that?'
' I have never seen something like that.' The image of that highly destructive orb was still fresh in my mind.As he created it to how he used it.
"EEKK."I felt something poke my side, snapping me out of my momentary daze.
"You alright?"Ars tilted his head as he asked me.
"Y-Yes."
"It's getting dark, we should set up a camp."He stared at the darkening sky, with a small smile.

"It quite a versatile magic." I started at the small wooden hut that was created, before turning towards Ars who was writing something.
I went and sat near him, watching as he thoughtfully wrote something.
"If you don't mind answering, What's that?"I pointed at the book he was writing in.
"It's a journal about my life."I raised my brows at that, remembering how Natsu avoided anything similar like a plague."Its a odd habit I picked up from gramps."
"It's not odd, it's a fine trait to have."Ars scratched his cheek, somewhat shy."May I have a look?"
He turned towards me then started staring back at his diary, before extending his Diary toward me.
"Sure."He handed me the book before going near the bonfire to check out dinner.
I opened the diary and slowly started reading what was written in it.Some moments funny, some intriguing to some that shocked me to my core.

1 Day later
Makarov POV
"So how did it go?"I asked the young redhead.
"He was surprising."I chuckled at her words, having thought the same when I first encountered him.
"He seems to have that effect on everyone."Erza nodded, felling the same.
"He seem willing to wait and understand rather than just rushing in." Erza tapped her chin, as she said her view."That's not it, he is also versatile as a mage, not just offensively or defensively bu-"
"What's your view of him?"I cut her off, before turning towards the boy in question, who seemed to devouring everything he was served.
"From what I saw of him, He tries to enjoy every moment of his life.He is a curious child wanting to know more.I think he will be a perfect addition to our guild." I smiled at that, relieved."Though the most noteworthy trait of his might be his humbleness, especially for someone of his position."
I paused at her words, utterly shocked.I turned to look at her, to see her somewhat irritated.
"So you know?"
"The Grandson of one of the Four Gods of Ishgar, who also happens to one of the founders of this guild."

A/N : Erza was stunned due to the Mc's strength in comparison to her expectations. Mc hasn't written about his reincarnation in the diary.
