I Will Be The Harem King 22 Cana Alberona 2 Part I

There were two things that bothered me though. One is that her mother didn't reveal who her father was and the second being that she didn't have the pet dog which was present in the canon. I know some might wonder why that is such a big worry but I feel like that it's the small changes that may lead to some bigger problems in the future.

I can understand Cornelia not telling about Gildarts as I could tell Cana for her. But the dog was an emotional support for Cana after her mother's death. I wonder if I took the dog's place or I effected history in a bad way altogether. At least when it came to Cana that is. I hope it is the first one as I don't really know how I can deal with the changes if it is the latter.

After I let Cana grieve for her mother we left after packing her belongings. There weren't much to take as there wasn't anything worth in the small house. I walked with Cana's hand in mine while both of us kept our silence.

We reached a wide road soon after and I decided on the direction which headed towards Fairy Tail. We kept our silence throughout our journey as I knew she needed some time to get her emotions in check. We set up camp in a nearby rock formation when the sun was setting and then I took out the cooking utensils to prepare dinner.

I made some light food knowing that she won't be having much of an appet.i.te. While eating I had already decided to tell Cana about Gildarts and lead her into making her telling Gildarts about their relationship her new goal. I wanted her to have the same goal as canon so as not to alter her personality too much when it comes down to it.

The reason she wasn't able to tell Gildarts about their relation was because of her strength being nowhere near hers. that's why while I will definitely train her, I will not be making her strong enough to take the S-cla.s.s test so soon. I will only be working on her foundations where upon reaching Fairy Tail she can improve on her own.

"Cana, your mother told me about your father. She said that your father never knew he had a daughter, you. Your mother left him because he was always busy with his work as a magician in a guild called Fairy Tail. His name is Gildarts Clive. Now that I have told you this, what are your plans?"

Cana seemed to be surprised at first by my revelation but then started to think what to do in the future. As she was contemplating I was already thinking up training plans for her because I know for a fact that she would definitely choose to go to Fairy Tail to meet her father.

"I want to meet him. My father. I want to meet him and tell him about mother and me. I want to tell him that he had a daughter who lost her mother not long ago. So I will go to Fairy Tail. I will become a mage to be able to stand before him and say that I'm his daughter."

She started off slow but as she kept talking her tone became firmer with her determination rising with each word. Her eyes showed the strong conviction she had and her will was like a burning inferno.

I smiled at her new found resolution and getting out of the dumps and nodded. I then told her that I will be training her in basics and strengthen her foundations until we reach Magnolia. I also told her that I won't be joining her at Fairy Tail at the moment as I had something to complete.

She was upset at hearing me say that we will separate once we reach the guild as she was putting and refusing to neither talk or look at me. I explained that I was out finding someone and that he was a very dangerous being which I want to finish my fight with. Which is technically true since I do want to fight Achnologia again but not before another training time and it was also not my main goal. My main goal was of course still getting the girls.

It took some time but I was eventually able to convince her of our impending separation. Knowing that our time together was short did wonders for me as she was reluctant to leave my side no matter what. She either held my hand or a corner of my clothes even when we went to sleep to get ready for her training.

The next day we started training. Since Cana has immense strength in the future I will be training her in that aspect a lot and then there was her accuracy training. Her fighting style was mostly about long range fighting where she shoots projectiles which is her cards so I will be focusing on that as well.

I asked her to run as fast as possible around the rock formation while dodging the obstacles while remaining at a constant speed. This was similar to how I trained at first so I knew what results it could yield in the long term.

After she was finished, she wanted to lie down to catch her breath but I didn't let her and told her to rest while standing. After she rested enough, I made her do various stretches while I ma.s.saged the knots she had in her muscles. Although at the time I didn't notice, when I thought back to it later I realized why Cana was blushing so hard as I now knew that I had touched a few sensitive parts.

After that I watched as she did all the exercises I did only with less intensity. She was having difficulties in finishing the targets but finished it nonetheless after digging deep in order to get stronger. The entire morning, we pa.s.sed it like that and at noon I ended our training session to eat lunch.

At lunch she sat beside me glancing at me from time to time which, again, at that time I had no idea why it was so. We rested until evening during which we softly spoke to each other about anything that came to mind.

Unlike the Cana of the future where she can often be outspoken, right now she is a very shy girl. She only opens her heart to those she considers close. And I, who had been with her for a few months and now became her spiritual support was of course able to make her open her heart.

She expressed her worries about how her father might not recognize her as his daughter or how if she is not strong enough she won't be able to face him. I rea.s.sured her that her father would be delighted on hearing he has a daughter and that she didn't need to worry about that. I wasn't worried about her having more confidence because of my words because the reason she became afraid of facing him was because she found out how famous and strong he was. I haven't told her the details of her father so when she does know about it will remain the same as canon where she tries to become an S-cla.s.s to have the confidence to tell him.

After that I taught her basic fighting and ended the training for the day. Following which I made us dinner and then quickly went to sleep in preparation for another tiring day.
