Fairy Tail: I don't want to be the president

Chapter 257 Reputation
The headquarters of Demon Heart is a massive airship.

In the meeting room of the airship, an old man with one eye covered and a long beard sat in the main seat.

"How was the mission?"

The goat-like Kablico said, "We have brought back all the living people, President Hades. It was so easy thanks to Azuma's magic."

"I don't like doing this kind of thing. There's not even one strong enough person to fight against." Azima crossed his arms, looking unhappy.

His magic allows him to take root in the earth like a big tree, and then control all the magic on this land.

Of course, the range is limited, it depends on how strong he is, and it also requires enough time to prepare.

But for the Demon's Heart, which had an intelligence advantage, it was too easy to find a suitable terrain on the way the escort team returned to the Council House and let Azma ambush in advance.

With this move of Azuma, the Council team can lose their combat capability in an instant.

Combined with Cabrico's "Gate of Humanity", it was quite easy to rescue the captured men.

Because they didn't want to raise the hatred value too high, they only rescued their own people and did not touch the people in the Council.

"This is to reduce information leakage." The man called Hades seemed quite kind.

"If people knew that the leader of the Seven Families of Purgatory was actually named Ultear, many things would become inconvenient in the future."

I told her to change her name and go undercover or use a code name in the guild, but she just wouldn't listen.

Cabrico lowered his head and said, "It was my mistake. I shouldn't have let them do unnecessary things."

Hades didn't care about this: "You are also trying to increase our strength. No one would have thought that Fairy Tail would suddenly come out to get in the way."

"You really can't let me go to Fairy Tail?" Azuma asked, "I'm interested in the man who defeated Lastiros and Zankro."

Zankro, who was wrapped in layers of bandages, was so angry that he jumped up and down: "I was not defeated! They ran away, fled in panic!"

Azma ignored him and continued:

"Besides those two, there's also the Fairy Queen, the Demon, the Fire Dragon... and even Makarov from the Ten Holy Mages. There are so many people worth fighting!"

He became more and more excited as he spoke, and he couldn't wait to go over and have a fight: "What an interesting guild."

Hades gave a meaningful smile: "That guild is certainly interesting, but now is not the time.

When our long-cherished wish comes true, you can find as many powerful opponents as you want."

Kablico, Zankro and others showed fanatical expressions on their faces.

The great magic world! What a fascinating destination!
Only Azuma looked indifferent, as he still longed to fight with the strong.

Although he would carry out the president's orders, if he could have a hearty battle now, no matter how big the magic world was, it wouldn't matter.

Fairy Tail...
-
Lord and Elfman have recently risen to fame.

Not only did the Council have no intention of keeping the incident secret, but it also intended to add fuel to the fire.

It's just that they seem to hope that the public will praise Rhode and Elfman more, condemn the Dark Guild more, and mention less about the kidnapping of prisoners.

Thus, Devil's Heart's latest misdeed was remembered along with Rod Elfman's outstanding performance.

Elfman earned the nickname Beastmaster.

However, he would rather be called 'man', 'man the beast king', or 'man the beast king'.

Elfman should have had a detailed talk with Mira. Now he no longer rejects the Soul of the Beast King and hopes to master it better.

Recently he has been practicing other forms of full-body reception, striving to gain a stronger power to protect his family.

As for Rhodes, the biggest impact on his reputation was not his victory over Lastiros, but the intelligence that was copied to all the major guilds.

Now many people of the older generation call him the 'goblin strategist of the new era'.

The young man didn't know much about Mavis's deeds, so he simply called Rhodes the 'Fairy Military Advisor'.

After hearing these rumors, Makarov was overjoyed.

The first president was one of the people he respected the most, and even his name was given by the first president.

Some people compared Rhodes with the first generation. Instead of feeling that the first generation president was offended, he felt that it was a kind of inheritance.

It makes him feel very gratified that the younger generation inherits the name and will of their predecessors.

But Rhode was not so happy. People are afraid of becoming famous just like pigs are afraid of becoming fat. With such a famous name, he might be targeted by someone.

As soon as he goes out, I'll hit him with a club, and then tell people, "I killed the old Taoist priest" or something like that.

"I still have to work hard on my training." The way to avoid being figured out by the enemy is simple: just make the information that others have become outdated.

Both the president and Lahar said that it is difficult, but as long as you put in enough effort, you can still achieve it.

In addition, Rhode was considering creating a personality for himself based on his nickname, such as being only good at making plans but not good at fighting.

It is similar to the character of a tamer.

But after all, the blacksmith must be strong himself.

"Mira, I'm going to practice."

"Ah."

Rhodes walked away, looking back every few steps.

He always felt that Mira was acting strange these two days, as if she was a little cold towards him.

No, it's not cold, it's just that something is wrong.

Although we still show the necessary care when we train together after get off work.

They cooperated as well as usual when working.

But when we talk normally, it feels a bit strange. It’s not quite accurate to say it’s cold, but it’s not right to say it’s distant either.

It’s hard to describe the feeling…

It can't be that a relative is coming, right?
Rhodes couldn't figure it out, so he practiced by himself in the backyard for a while, then summoned Worm during the break and asked him to go to the tavern to eat and drink and call out Elfman at the same time.

Since he had made great contributions in delivering the letter last time and received a big meal as a reward, Worm is now particularly interested in tasks like delivering the letter.

After a while, Elfman came over.

"What's wrong? Do you want to practice?" Elfman rubbed his wrist. "Come to think of it, you haven't fought the Beast King Soul yet, right?"

"Are you feeling better from your injury? You're just thinking about fighting."

"Man up! I plan to go out to work tomorrow." Elfman felt that he was in good shape. "How are you?"

"I want to rest for a few more days."

It was a rare experience of a life-and-death fight, and it was barely a evenly matched battle. It would be good to review it more and summarize the gains and losses.

The new skill of summoning wild monsters without using hands also needs to be consolidated.

By the way, set a goal for the next stage of training - there is no need to even have skin contact with the pendant, just summon wild monsters directly.

This kind of thing can only be used well in battle if you think about it in normal times.

If you want to break through at the critical moment of life and death, you must accumulate enough in normal times, and you must also know which direction to break through, right?

Elfman didn't mean to drag him into a team, but nodded in agreement: "I also think it's better for you not to go out to work recently."

"Hmm? Are you also afraid that I'll be beaten up if I go out?"

"what?"

The two people's thinking is obviously not on the same channel.

Rhodes asked, "Why do you say that?"

"No, nothing, I just think you're seriously injured and should rest more."

Something was wrong. Rod looked into Elfman's eyes, but Elfman didn't meet his gaze.

"A man shouldn't lie. Why?"

Azma's magic, the Arc of the Great Tree, means taking root in the earth like a tree and controlling the magic of that land.
The comics mentioned that Hades arranged for him to go to the island in advance so that he would have time to control the magic of the entire island, instead of having to dig up the Sirius tree.

In fact, he 'broke the Sirius Tree' and 'seized the magic power' were actually two operations carried out simultaneously, and then there were some problems in the subsequent description that easily led to misunderstanding of the role of the Sirius Tree.

In fact, the function of the Sirius Tree is to provide Fairy Tail members with 'blood lock and immunity from death within the island' and 'enhanced magic power'.

Hades knew this, so breaking the Sirius Tree was equivalent to destroying the cheats of the Fairy Tail members.

Apart from this, there are no other side effects of breaking the wolf tree.

The basis is that when Azima returned everyone's magic power later, he did not restore the Sirius Tree.
