Fairy Tail: I don't want to be the president
Chapter 445: The coalition of three major guilds!
Chapter 445: The coalition of the three major guilds!
As soon as he returned to the guild, Lucy stared at him with resentful eyes from the door to the counter.
Mira knew the reason and watched with a smile how Rhodes would deal with it.
Rhode acted as if he knew nothing and greeted them casually: "Hey, you guys are back too. How's the mission going? Have you figured it out?"
Lucy was shocked and said, "It's obviously a lie, but you can ask it so casually!"
"Why not? I'm your benefactor who helped you solve your rent crisis and injected fun into your boring tasks." Rhodes said with a smile.
"Look, before you found out the identity of the restaurant owner, did you always think the mission was interesting? After you found out, did Natsu and Gray not dare to mess with you, allowing you to earn the rent smoothly?"
"..." Lucy was very angry. If she had to say it, it was indeed the case.
After finding out that the restaurant was actually opened by the former councillor, Natsu and Gray were shocked, and Lucy almost suffered cardiopulmonary arrest.
A member of a guild with a notorious record was actually investigating the reviewer. She almost thought the sky was falling.
"But you lied to me! When I came back, the president said there was no investigation mission at all, only a temporary task of recruiting magicians as waiters! I thought I worked for nothing!"
"Well... that's the president's fault." Rhodes said, "The president and Mr. Yajima have an agreement that when his restaurant opens, he will send the strongest team to help."
Lucy didn't believe him: "You're kidding! How could this happen?"
Erza came out to testify: "Yes, it was around the time of the Harvest Festival last year."
"Hey~~~~" Is this what the president decided a year ago? No, this is just a far-fetched argument, right? But Erza said so... Lucy was confused.
Mira raised her hand with a smile: "I was there too."
At that time, I also heard some gossip about the president and Grandma Polyusica, so I decided to tell Lucy about it.
Lucy's attention was immediately diverted.
After talking about the president's gossip for a while, Mira noticed that the president was not there: "By the way, where is the president?"
"I left for a regular meeting at noon," Erza said, "I wanted to wait for you to come back, but I didn't."
Mira said with a smile: "Oh, I'll have to trouble you, President."
Erza said: "Now that you are back, the work here..."
"Erza, we're going to be out for a bit." Mira put her hands together and asked, "Can I still leave you here?"
"Is there anything else that has not been dealt with?"
"Well, because I got a little clue by chance..." Mira stayed and told Erza about what happened during this mission.
Rhodes went to the back to borrow the communication magic crystal.
Rhodes was not very skilled in using this thing, but after studying it, he could finally "dial".
The person who answered the phone was President Robin Lu. After greeting him politely, Rod said he wanted to talk to Wendy.
Robin Lu said that he would send someone to find Wendy immediately. Rod thought he would have to wait for a few minutes, but he didn't expect Wendy and Xia Lulu to come unexpectedly quickly.
He even suspected that it was Xia Lulu who brought Wendy here.
Wendy's smiling face appeared in the crystal ball: "Brother Rod, how are you?"
"Should I ask you?" Rhode smiled. "You look very energetic, though. How's Xia Lulu?"
"That's great too!" Wendy stepped back so that the white cat with its hands in its pockets could be in the picture.
Xia Lulu greeted awkwardly, then asked about Mira, and asked about Erza, Natsu, Gray and Worm.
The only person he ignored was the harpy.
Since Harpy was often ignored when counting, Rod didn't care about it. "Sorry, I left in such a hurry last time."
"It's okay. Xia Lulu and I later heard that Fairy Tail was attacked. Is everyone okay?" Although she already knew the result from the news, Wendy still wanted to confirm it personally.
"It's okay. Although I was slightly injured, I've recovered a long time ago. Let me tell you, that time..."
Rhode suddenly felt the urge to talk, and told Wendy about their fight against the Phantom Overlord, especially how they worked together to defeat the Ten Holy Wizards.
Wendy listened attentively, her expression changing unconsciously as Rod told her story, sometimes worried, sometimes happy, sometimes admiring.
He was always evasive when talking to reporters or House of Representatives investigators, but he couldn't help but want to make it clear when talking to Wendy.
"Amazing!"
After he finished speaking, he saw Wendy's admiring eyes and heard her unadorned praise, and he felt very happy.
Xia Lulu suspected that he wanted to kidnap Wendy and stopped him from showing off: "Did you contact us just to talk about this?"
"Oh, I have something serious to say." Rhode said, "Mira and I have received intelligence that a dangerous person may come to your place, so I remind you to be more careful recently.
He happens to be our target, so we are going to bother you again."
"Really? When?" Wendy suddenly moved her face closer and snatched the spotlight from Xia Lulu.
The dangerous man was immediately forgotten by her.
"I'll take care of some things in the union and leave soon. If everything goes well, we should be able to reach the Cat Inn tomorrow afternoon."
Wendy's face was full of surprise: "Great, I'll get ready right away!"
"No need to prepare anything specially... And the key point of my sentence is the first half. Be careful of dangerous people nearby."
"Yes, I understand!"
Wendy was a well-behaved child, and Rhode was quite relieved about that.
The two chatted for a while, and Mira came in and gave Rod an OK gesture, indicating that there was no problem with Erza.
"Sister Mira!" Wendy greeted her happily.
Rhodes asked the three of them to chat first, as he had other things to do.
Erza has taken Mira's usual seat, and is seriously organizing mission information and helping everyone register for missions.
"Thank you for your hard work." Rhodes came out and greeted her.
"It's nothing. I'm usually grateful for your care. It's nice to do this kind of work occasionally." Erza is not averse to experiencing some different jobs.
"Then I'll give this to you as well." Rhodes handed his little notebook to Erza.
"what?"
"I accidentally obtained some information about the Six Demon Generals during the mission. I'll sort it out for everyone to see later, so that you can be prepared if you accidentally encounter them when you are out and about."
Just like the last time with Rastilos, even if 100 people go out, not one of them may meet him, but if they do meet him, they don’t know anything about him and are easily at a loss.
It's always safer to know more information.
"Six Demon Generals? Oh, by the way, Mira just said that you encountered the black unicorn under the command of the Six Demon Generals."
"Yes, I got it from them through torture. Unfortunately, it's a bit vague and not necessarily complete."
Erza flipped open the book and took a look. "It's already very rare. I'll start organizing it right away and compare it with the existing information."
Erza was very reliable when she was serious, so Rhode left the matter to her without any worries and went to find some information about Eligor to review. Although he thought he could probably beat Eligor now, he was a guy who was good at assassination after all, so he needed to be more careful.
"Oh, by the way, there is one more thing." Rhodes said, "I heard that the Council of Review is about to be reorganized. I don't know when it will be able to resume its normal functions.
Remember to remind everyone not to mess around recently, otherwise you will be punished as a negative example to establish your authority. "
"I see. We also heard about this from Mr. Yajima. Maybe no one in the Council will speak for us in the future." Erza frowned and thought for a moment, then said, "I will warn Natsu."
"..." Rhodes wanted to complain.
After Mira finished talking to Wendy, the two made some preparations and set out on their journey again.
As long as this trip is successful, not only will they have money to buy a house, but they can also save a considerable amount of start-up capital for their small family.
……
As we set off late, we had to spend the night on the boat.
When he got ashore the next day, Rhodes felt the ground beneath his feet was still shaking.
Fortunately, neither of them was seasick, so they ate something to fill their stomachs near the southern port and then took the Crab-Transforming Cat Inn directly to their destination.
It was almost noon, and in faraway Magnolia, everyone was discussing the brief intelligence on the Six Demon Generals announced by Erza.
We talked about the Six Demon Generals, the Balamu Alliance, and then returned to the fact that many dark guilds under the Six Demon Generals seemed to be very restless recently.
When they were talking excitedly, Makarov suddenly returned to the guild early, which was unusual for him.
"President?"
Everyone was a little surprised. A routine meeting usually lasted three days, but he only came back on the second day.
Judging from the time, it should be the morning train. Did they hold an emergency meeting in the evening and then adjourn it?
"Could it be that the president had a fight with someone again?"
The old guild members like Makao and Wakaba knew about the president’s dark history... But that’s not right, we won the battle at that time, so it can’t be considered a dark history.
Makarov asked, "I just heard you discussing the Six Demon Generals?"
Everyone didn't know what the president meant and nodded.
Makarov said seriously: "We will be responsible for defeating the Six Demon Generals."
"!"
"what?"
"Defeat the Six Demon Generals?!"
"Master, did you draw the worst lot again?"
Everyone was surprised. It was rumored that each of the six demon generals, one of the three pillars of the Balamu Alliance, had the ability to destroy a guild alone...
It actually has to be Fairy Tail that is going to conquer it?
It's true that Fairy Tail is the number one guild in the Kingdom of Fiore, but the Six Demon Generals is one of the top three dark guilds in the entire continent.
If they were solely responsible, it would be too difficult. And if the other two major dark forces came forward to help the six demon generals...
The pressure is too great.
Fortunately, Makarov continued, "To be precise, we, Blue Pegasus, and Snake Princess Scales, a total of three guilds, formed a coalition to defeat them together."
Natsu got excited when he heard about the fight. He waved his fist and shouted, "We are more than enough to deal with those guys! I can beat them to a pulp by myself."
Makarov did not deny that his guild was capable of dealing with the Six Demon Generals, but explained:
"That's not an enemy that can be dealt with easily. We formed a coalition for the sake of follow-up considerations. If our subjugation action leads to retaliation, the three major guilds will also share the pressure."
Natsu didn't care about that and just insisted that he must participate. It was not until he was punched on the head by Erza that he was willing to lie down and listen quietly.
Makarov took the opportunity to talk about the recent situation and told everyone that the Six Demon Generals were preparing to launch a very dangerous operation, so they had to attack them immediately.
As he was talking, Makarov suddenly felt something was wrong. He looked around and asked, "Are Mira and Rod not back yet?"
Erza replied, "He came back yesterday, but left right away. He said he got news about Eligore and was going to arrest someone."
"That Eligore?!" Lucy was impressed. She remembered that man was very strong and Natsu seemed to have taken a lot of effort to defeat him.
Happy raised his hands, "Love! The guy who almost beat Natsu!"
That is to say, Natsu is lying on his stomach now, otherwise he would definitely jump up and refute him.
Gray frowned: "It would be a bit difficult to catch Eligore with only two people..."
He didn't finish his words. Thinking about the strength of those two people, he even wanted to change his words and say, "Isn't it a bit of an exaggeration?"
Makarov asked, "Can we contact them?"
"It's probably on the way now." Erza said, "Maybe it will be available later."
"I originally wanted them to lead the Thunder Gods, but at this time..."
Makarov sighed. He felt that with Albagreen's petrifying eyes, Bigusro's shaping eyes and Fried's technique, Rhodes could kill the six demon generals.
It was a pity that they were not there, not even the Thunder Gods were in the guild.
There was no way around it. Although they had discussed how to deal with the Six Demon Generals a long time ago, no one expected that they would suddenly take action at this time.
As a result, the Guild Alliance's response was somewhat hasty, and the three major guilds could only choose whoever they wanted when it came to selecting players.
It will be too late to wait any longer.
"In that case, leave it to us." Erza took the initiative to step forward. She shook a few papers in her hand and said, "It just so happens that Rod left us something good."
Erza, Natsu, Gray, Lucy, Happy, the four people and the cat made some necessary preparations, rented a carriage, and went to meet up with the people from the other two guilds.
Lucy followed everyone to Granny Polyusica in a daze and asked for some antidotes. She also bought glasses - mainly to guard against the two people codenamed "Cobra" and "Hot Eyes".
When they were out of town in the carriage, Lucy suddenly collapsed and covered her head. "Why do I have to go too?! There are many people in the guild who are stronger than me, right?"
"Because many people are not here, and teamwork also requires consideration of tacit understanding." Erza calmly comforted Lucy, "And you are very capable, so you should respond well to the president's expectations."
Lucy felt a little complacent after being praised by Erza. In other words, this meant that her abilities were recognized by the president, right?
However, Habby is a talking kitten. He kindly said to Lucy: "Besides, Loki is very strong. Taking Lucy with you is like taking Loki with you."
Lucy glared at Happy, "You don't have to say that!"
"Love~" Habib snickered.
Lucy argued, "And the power of the Celestials is my power!"
Habibi replied perfunctorily: "Love~"
"You damn cat!"
Lucy and Happy started fighting and almost knocked Natsu out of the car.
Natsu leaned against the window uncomfortably: "Rod...where are you~~I want crabs..."
