Hi~ there guys ^^
so here's a little something before you start the story :p this story is my very first fic EVER! so please be gentle with me m(_ _)m also, I would like to say that it's dedicated to my dear friend MiyuTanemura to whom I must thank for encouraging me to write :D
Disclaimers: well, I think it's pretty obvious that I don't own anything from the characters or the anime/manga itself *shrugs shoulders*...they belong to Hiro Mashima \(^v^)/
otherwise I hope you'll enjoy *grin* and that I don't disappoint you -.-'
In a world where fantasy clashes with reality there are humans and mythical creatures living. Humans are separated in two branches. One represents those who are born normal with nothing extravagant to define them while the other defines those who are called mages. These latter are ones who have the capacity to wield magic and possess powers so special that it would seem unrealistic. Although it sounds great, mages are ostracized by those who describe themselves as being normal. This made some of the powerful magicians to take a huge decision. Create a magic council.
This group of mages came to the conclusion that it would be a better option for them to not only desert the lands where the non-magic wielders live but to also found their own country. A place they can live-in in peace and build their own future without worrying about being mocked and despised for every action they make! Mages isolated themselves from society in a land far away, a land known only by them.
Unfortunately, happiness can sometimes be followed by grief and sorrow. After settling in these lands and creating their own society, families were established, houses were built, children were born and the council took the role of leadership. Generations have gone by gradually, and the new generations have contributed greatly in the expansion of their country. New tools were invented; the economy has reached its highest and health care systems were starting to be established. Happy vibes were flooding the city. Then came the day where human and mages started to get along step by step. Deals were made in the economy field, medical tactics were shared between both societies and most importantly, marriages between a magic wielder and a non-magic wielder were being held more often. In other words, prejudice and discrimination were starting to diminish and that's where the unpredictable hit them. Dragons!
It happened so fast no one was able to comprehend what hit them. Many dragons came soaring in the sky like it belonged to them and then started firing at all the citizens their powerful roars. It was chaos! The council was trying to protect their citizens by creating shields and attacking the offenders while parents were trying to shield their own children from the deadly attacks, older siblings doing their best to bring their younger siblings to safety while men did their best to avert the danger from their families and friends. That year could be described as being in hell on earth! Many people died, got injured severely or were not even found. People were separated from their families and friends because they were transported or sent-away in different lands. In other words, this hideous war leads to the creation of many cities in which citizens are mixed between mages and normal humans.
It may have caused the unity between mages and humans but it also created a lot of pain and misery to most of the survivors. It was later on discovered that there are dragons who sided with the humans during the war and that they contributed by sharing their powers with some humans. These humans are the main reason this war has become a lost cause to dragons who retreated as soon as they realized that.
With every story there must be an end…and it is in the human nature to stand up and rebuild everything from scratch. The world has changed all-over again. Cities were built instead of countries; the magic council still held the power to lead the people and education became an important aspect in society. Many powerful and renowned mages decided that it would be a wise decision to educate the future generations and to give them better access to school so that there won't be a repeat of history. It would allow the younger generations to attain better control of their magical powers. In each city, there had to be a magical school and a non-magical school built. To distinguish between the two, some people started naming magical schools as guilds.
The only problem that encountered some cities such as Magnolia is that not all magic wielders were accepted. Mages are very powerful and are gifted with some magic powers that can be unique from and individual to another. The problem lies within these powers. Magic wielders are separated in three different groups. In the first group, there are the common ones that one can meet every day in the city. The second group contains the individuals who possess some rare magic type known as the lost magic. This group isn't very much appreciated by the other citizens but they can still manage with having them live between them in the countless cities. Finally, the third type of magic is the rarest of them all; in fact it's the most unusual type ever known! It's so rare that there are only a handful of people that can wield that type of magic. The dragon-slaying magic…Even though mages categorized in the second group are somewhat tolerated, those in the third group are still completely shunned by society! After all, dragons are known for their strong hate towards humans and the numbers of death caused by them are uncountable…so why would their slayers be anything close to being better than them?
Then again, if they're dragon-slayers it simply means that they accepted to wield magic that comes from the creatures that did genocide on humans! It may be true that they were the ones who saved the day back then but it's easier for humans to direct their hate and anger towards one of their own than towards a specie that may or may have not become extinct…
That's where the wheel of fate starts turning and the story of seven dragon-slayers thriving in a world of love and war starts.
