Zeref smiled and hugged his niece. He listened to her speak of the Games and the team she was given lead on. "Very good. Very good." He said in a small bit of praise as she showed him the tea and snacks. Zeref nodded and took a cup.<br/><br/>"It breaks some of its monotony at least." The Black Wizard said as he sipped the cup. "I do have some advice. For the games of course. Always keep an eye out for any surprises the other teams might dish out. Keep your wits about you." Zeref paused as he sipped his cup.<br/><br/>"Also, as I'm sure this is going to happen as often as there are Grand Magic Games yearly, watch out for political intrigue or it'll suck you in like it nearly did your mother during the Eclipse Gate incident." He added with a small chuckle, recalling when he heard how that mess went about.
