Chapter 11: Chapter 9: News from Leo x [Aqua Aera]
Albion POV
It has been 15 days since I first me Leo the lion while I was polishing Caelum. I have gotten along with them very well and I still keep up with my training. I have learned a couple of [dragon slayer secret arts] and gotten physically stronger.
I told my parents that I met Leo and that he would give my request to create my [celestial law] spell. Imagine my surprise when I heard that they were acquainted with the Celestial Spirit King. But when I thought about it, it makes a little sense since her spell [aqua aera] could let the user travel to different worlds.
Me:"Hm?" I start to pick up a familiar scent along with the sound of footsteps.
I turned to the direction of the scent to see a familiar figure wearing his suit and carrying a bag. Was he shopping before coming to meet me?
Leo:"Hey Albion. How long has it been since we last met?"
Me:"Hey Leo. It has been 15 days since our last encounter."
Leo:"I see. Well I was able to pass your request to the Celestial Spirit King. He has granted permission to create your spell. He was surprised by your request, but he was interested in your spell. He also wanted me to give this to you."
After he finished his sentence, he took out a crystal ball and handed it to me.
Me:"A crystal ball? is this to contact the Celestial Spirit King?" I asked.
Leo:"Yup. He was surprised when he heard the names of the dragons who raised you."
Me:"I know how he feels. After I met you, I spoke to my parents about it and I was surprised when I found out that they know the Celestial Spirit King."
Leo:"Really? So whats been going on?"
Then we spoke of the the training I have been doing the mast 15 days and of what has been going on in the world. When he heard about the current state of the world, he was surprised that a human turned into a dragon and massacred so many dragons.
I also told him about my [clairvoyance eyes] that let me see the past, project my consciousness and has the potential to see into other dimensions. Now that I think about it it may be possible to see the Celestial Spirit World without having to leave the human world.
Leo:"Those are interesting eyes you have." he said after hearing about my [eye magic].
Me:"Yeah but I am still training to control them. I am trying to learn how to see specific moments in the past and then work on projecting my consciousness and seeing other dimentions."
Leo:"Well I am sure you will if your level of magic power is any indication."
Me:"Thanks Leo." I said with a smile.
He's right. My magic power has been increasing and with learning and practising my magic, I am learning to control that magic power. So after another half an hour of talking, he decides to head back to the Celestial Spirit World.
Leo:"Well see you later Albion."
Me:"See you later Leo." I said as he disappeared.
I then pick up the crystal ball in my hand and give it a quick look. I didn't expect to get a direct line to the Celestial Spirit King. But what can you do? So I put the magic item into my bag and continued my training.

4 days later
Mother:"After some thinking, I believe its time that I teach you [aqua aera]."
Father:"You ready for this son?"
I nodded my head in response as they continued.
Mother:"[Aqua aera] uses water as a medium to either view distant locations or to create a portal to that location."
Father:"It might be easy for you to learn this spell since you learned [water dragon slayer magic] and [celestial spirit magic] which have to do with water and space respectively."
Me:"Maybe but when something seems simple, it usually isn't." I said paraphrasing the saying 'if it sounds to good to be true it probably is'
Mother:"Let's start with with the water."
After she said that, I move my right hand and gathered my magic power to use my [water dragon slayer magic] to make a ball of water. While I kept the water ball floating, mother continued.
Mother:"Now I want you to try picture the place you want to see. lets start off simple, try to picture the place where you train with with Mercphobia."
Me:"Right."
I then made the water ball into a water disk while it was still in the air and try to picture the place where I train with Mercphobia-sensei. I try to imagine the shoreline where I learned [water dragon slayer] using water made with that same magic.
Now to transfer that image into the water disk so we can view, during this I feel ripples in the water disk. As the amount of ripples increase an image starts to appear in the water. The image of trees and sand appear in the water disk with the sound of waves in the backround.
Mother:"Looks like you were able to use the viewer functon of [aqua aera]. I suggest you get use to the viewer before you use this spell to teleport anywhere."
Me:"Thats for the best since I don't want to end up messing up the spell and get teleported to a random place or trapped inside a separate dimension or something like that."
Father:"Does that happen a lot in the fiction you've seen in your previous life?" he asked with a curious expression.
Me:"It happens more often then you would think." I replied.
Teleportation can be tricky since anime, movies and tv shows make teleporting sound easy but this is reality. If I didn't accept that, I would not last long in this world.
Then I hear a noise from the other side of my [aqua aera] so I switched the view the ocean to find that a dragon come out of the water. I then add the image of transferring audio and started talking.
Me:"Hello Mercphobia-sensei how are things going with you."
The water dragon then looked toward me and responded.
Mercphobia:"Hello Abion, I felt a trace of your magic power near the shoreline so I came to see what was happening. But it seems you are learning to use Selene's [aqua aera] spell."
Me:"Yeah I used the water from the magic you taught me as the medium for [aqua aera]."
Mercphobia:"That is clever since you may not always find water to use for the [aqua aera] spell. Plus [water dragon slayer magic] could strengthen the [aqua aera] spell since it is compatible with [water magic]."
Mother:"It is impressive that you were able to transmit our voices through [aqua aera] Albion." I heard mother say.
Me:"I just used the image of sending audio, that was just a start before I feel ready to teleport using this spell. One step at a time."
When I said that, my parents and Mercphobia-sensei nodded in agreement since they must have seen people fall in pursuit of power. Acnologia is a prime example, he wanted the power to slay dragons and enden up becoming a dragon as a result.
Me:"Sorry for interrupting you Mercphobia-sensei."
Mercphobia:"It is alright. Its good to see that you doign well in your training. Just be careful."
Me:"I will sensei."
After I finished my sentence, I decide to cancel my magic and leave the future water dragon god to his business. I should try to use the spell but this time try to picture the place where I usually meet with Natsu and the other dragon slayers.
Me:"I will try a different location now." I said as I use magic to make water and use it to form a disk to use then channel the image I want and continued."[aqua aera]."
Once I chanted the name of the spell, the meeting place of the dragon slayers came into view through the water. All I saw through the spell were trees, some of them were damaged due to the sparring sessions I've had with Natsu and Gajeel.
I start to chuckle when I remember how they always try to beat me in a fight but lose, since my [water dragon slayer magic] is a good match for Natsus [fire dragon slayer magic] and Gajeels attacks pass through me when I turn into water.
Father:"What is so funny son?" I her my father asking me after hearing my chuckling.
Me:"The sight of the damaged trees reminded me of how Natsu and Gajeel try to beat me in our sparring matches but they've never won."
Mother:"True, though since you have more types of magics then them that is to be expected."
Me:"Not necessarily." the looked at me confused as I continued. "There are times when someone can use even the simplest or smallest of attacks to defeat the strongest of opponents."
After I explained that, it seems they were remembering that there have been dragons who were defeated by humans who they believed to be weak and inferior until learning [dragon slayer magic].
Plus, I've mostly used [water dragon slayer magic] and [sky dragon slayer magic] against Natsu so he gets use to fighting against someone who uses [water magic] and [wind magic]. There are times when [fire magic] defeats [water magic] but Natsu is not at that level just yet. And in the canon he defeated Erigor who used [wind magic] but thats in 400 years.
Father:"That is a good point. In my past life, I have seen powerful beings being defeated by attacks that you would think are too weak."
Me:"Correct. All it takes is one attack in the right place and the right time to defeat an enemy."
As I said that, I remember that it takes brains to figure out what attack to use and when to use it. Since Natsu and Gajeel aren't known for using his brains in a fight its easy to outsmart them.
Mother:"While you make good points, lets continue your training."
Me:"Right." I said and continued with my training.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 year later
After A year of training, I was able to now use [aqua aera] to teleport to locations I have seen or been to. I also learned [transformation magic] in case I have to go undercover.
I used [transformation magic] to become Adamai from season 3 of the Wakfu show, I always thought he looked badass. I look at my body to see the dragon form I've taken on while my parents spoke.
Mother:"You've gotten great at [transformation magic] Albion. You look exactly like the white dragon from the show we watched."
Me:"Thanks mother. " I said in Adamais voice as I continue. "That was what I was going for. though having a tail and wings takes some getting use to."
Father:"Well since you didn't have them originally it is to be expected."
Me:"Right, I may not always be able to rely on you so I should learn to fly myself." I said while looking at the sky
As I said that, my parents look at me with smiles on their faces as I undo the [transformation magic]. Then they suddently hug me tightly and spoke.
Mother:"We know that you'll be using the Eclipse Gate to travel to the future but while only a moment will pass for you, hundreds of years hill have passed for me."
Father:"While I will use the [dragon soul technique] to place my soul into your body to create antibodies to prevent you from becoming a dragon like Acnologia."
Mother:"Just know that you'll know where we are if you need usand that you can always rely on us."
When they said that, I felt a wave of nostalgia hit me, causing to remember the parents from my past life. I start to feel tears welling up in my eyes when I feel the warmth of their hug and the love behind it.
So I decided to return the hug with all the love I can muster and with tears in my eyes.
Me:"Mom, Dad, thank you. *sniff* Thank you for everything. *sniff* I will always appreciate *sniff* everything you've done for me."
I continue to cry and hug them for about 10 minutes before I start to get sleepy and drift into dreamland.

Third POV
After Albion fell asleep while hugging his dragon parents, Selene and Veldanava looked at their childs sleeping face and recalled that Albion called them "Mom and Dad."
Selene:"He's finally called us mom and dad. It always feels like he was holding back when calling us mother and father."
Veldanava:"Well, like me, he does hve memories from his previous life. those memories must have been subconsciously holding him back."
Selene:"That does make sense. Since he has no memories of his birth parents in this world."
They were both right. Since Albion didn't know his birth parents, the only family he's ever known were the parents in his previous life. His previous life was not bad, but it wasn't bad but it had its own hardships. Albion never talked about his past life and his dragon parents never asked him about his previous life.
Veldanava:"I know a little about how he feels."
Veldanava knew a little about what Albion was going through since he possessed memories from his past life. Espcially memories of his daughter Milim, he sometimes wondered that if Milim was doing ok. Though he created a mini double of himself to be a friend to his daughter, he can't help but worry about Milim.
Selene:"You mean your daughter Milim?"
Veldanava:"Yeah, she is the child of a true dragon and a high human. there are humans who may want to use her for there own purposes. I can only hope that she's alright."
Selene:"Maybe Albion knows what happened after your death or use his [eye magic] to see your Cardinal world and find out what happened."
Veldanava:"Maybe but I am afraid of whar I may learn."
Selene:"Just remember that Albion an I are here for you."
Veldanava:"Thanks Selene."
Selene:"Anytime, now lets go to sleep and continue his training tomorrow."
After their conversation, the two dragons remained in thier human forms and went to sleep while hugging Albion.
