Chapter 4: Learning Medical Skills (Please Read!) (Ch 4)

After a period of training, Noah’s control was strengthened, and the furniture around him was safe and would no longer be easily damaged.

However, Noah would often take the opportunity to say hello and slap Laxus away when Laxus was not paying attention.

Whenever Noah saw Laxus’s expression change from confusion to anger while flying in the air, he couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

Although every time he did this, he would be beaten back by Laxus.

As for learning magic, Noah became very excited when he successfully released light magic for the first time.

He continuously released light magic in the surroundings, creating pits all around him, until he was knocked down by a punch from Makarov.

Noah, lying on the ground, was panting and had calmed down, but he was still very excited. After all, this was the first time in his life that he successfully released magic, and magic was something that only existed in fantasy before.

A man is a boy until he dies. When he was young, he could say, “If a boy gets this stick, all the cauliflowers for ten miles will bow their heads.” What’s more, now he can actually perform magic. You can imagine how happy he is.

After standing up, Makarov gave Noah a lecture and told him not to destroy things casually.

Noah thought that you will be miserable in the future. Thinking of Natsu and others in the future, Noah began to feel sorry for Makarov.

Out of his love for magic, Noah eagerly absorbed all kinds of magical knowledge.

Makarov is worthy of being one of the Ten Holy Wizards. His rich knowledge and various skills have brought Noah a lot of benefits.

After a period of training and with the help of his talent, Noah has made tremendous progress in both his magical powers and physical fitness compared to when he first started training.

At the beginning, the magic power could only fire a few light bombs, but later it could be fired for a whole day without any problem.

As for physical fitness, I used to get tired after running a few laps, but later I could pick up large stones to use as fitness equipment, and the stones I used became bigger and bigger.

What made Noah even happier was that his recovery ability was very strong. Even if his magic power was completely consumed, it could be quickly restored. After a short rest, the physical strength exhausted after exercise would be almost recovered.

With such recovery ability, even if you encounter a strong enemy in the future, as long as you are not killed instantly, most of the time you can escape by relying on your recovery ability.

After Noah trained alone for a while, he began to practice sparring with Laxus.

After Laxus obtained the Thunder Dragon Slayer Magic Crystal, his physical fitness was greatly improved, allowing his innate magic power to be released, and he became stronger very quickly.

When Noah and Laxus first started practicing, Laxus always had the upper hand over Noah.

In terms of magic power, physical fitness, combat skills, and other aspects, Laxus is much stronger than Noah, a beginner.

Of course, Noah was very unhappy about being beaten unilaterally, but Laxus was very happy and was in high spirits every day when it was time for sparring.

However, soon, as Noah gradually adapted to his new life and started to become stronger, Laxus began to feel the strain and was no longer able to achieve a crushing victory.

After a while, when Noah became stronger, it became more difficult for Laxus to win.

When Noah was able to rely on his powerful recovery ability to exhaust Laxus so that he had no strength to stand up and fight again, the balance of victory and defeat began to reverse and Laxus began to lose.

This also aroused Laxus’s competitive spirit. Although he was three years older than Noah, he was caught up by Noah in strength so quickly. This made Laxus feel a sense of urgency, and he continued to strengthen his training with increasing intensity.

Six months passed like this. Noah had made great progress in all aspects and had almost learned all the light magic. If he wanted to continue to improve, he had to rely on himself, so Noah began to prepare to learn the next project.

That is to learn medicine from Polysica.

After learning medical skills, my life is better protected, and I can tell others that I am just a healing wizard who is not good at fighting.

After telling Makarov about this idea, Makarov thought about it and said:

“You have learned the basics well. You can go and learn other knowledge, but it depends on whether Polyusica is willing to teach you. In addition, even if you can learn medical skills, you can’t ignore other aspects of training.”

“I understand, Grandpa. I’ll go find Grandma Polucica then.”

They came to the depths of the forest east of Magnolia, all the way to the cabin where Polluxica lived. Noah stood outside the door and shouted to the inside:

“Mother-in-law, I’m Noah, are you home?”

After shouting several times, I saw Polucka open the door with an impatient look on his face:

“You are the child that Makarov brought here before. Go back quickly if you have anything to do. Humans are not welcome here.”

“Granny, I have joined Fairy Tail and I want to learn medicine from you.”

Polucica was stunned for a moment, then quickly said:

“No, don’t come to me again, go back quickly.”

“Mother-in-law, if I learn medical skills from you, I can take better care of Grandpa Makarov. Grandpa is old and in poor health.

He doesn’t usually take care of his health, and doesn’t come to your place often. If I learn medical skills, I can take better care of grandpa.”

After hearing this, Poluska thought about it seriously. Although she and Makarov often quarreled, they had a very good relationship. She was also very worried about Makarov’s health.

After a while Polyusica said to Noah:

“You can learn if you want, but you have to take a test first. I will only teach you if you meet my requirements.”

“Okay, mother-in-law, go ahead and test me. I will definitely succeed.”

“I hope so.”

So, Polysica found some information about medicinal herbs and asked Noah to recite them, and Noah, who had a strong memory, easily memorized them all.

Polusica was a little surprised after seeing this. Such memory mechanics would have advantages in everything. Where did Makarov find this child? He was so lucky.

Then Polysica explained part of the content of pharmacy, and Noah quickly got the hang of it after listening.

Polysica examined Noah and found that there was nothing wrong with him, so he decided to teach Noah medicine.

But she also told Noah to leave as soon as he finished learning and not to disturb her here.

After discussion, the two agreed that Noah would come to Polysica in the afternoon to learn medical skills.

In a blink of an eye, it was almost evening. After saying goodbye to Polysica, Noah went back.

When Noah got home, he saw that Laxus looked unhappy, so he asked:

“Laxus, what happened? I can see you don’t look very well.”

“You still have the nerve to ask me why? Are you running away after you beat me because you’re afraid that I’ll win back after I become stronger?”
