Crossover Anime: I, Shirou Kotomine, King of Uruk

As S-class mages, Fairy Tail naturally possesses magical items that connect them.

If Gray fails to bring Natsu and Lucy back, Mirajane will not hesitate to call Erza back.

Although that was her original plan.

But Gray’s volunteering interrupted her preparations.

However, Mirajane felt that giving Gray a morning was enough.

After all, Natsu and Lucy left Magnolia last night, when there were no trains running.

Gray could catch the train and catch up with Natsu and Lucy in the morning.

Furthermore, Mirajane has confirmed that Natsu stole a mission called the Cursed Island.

As a result, even getting onto the island is extremely difficult.

That's why Mirajane gave Gray half a day.

"That's settled then! If Gray can't come back by noon, then tell Erza to bring them back."

Ultimately, Chairman Makarov made the decision.

The reason why Chairman Makarov was so cautious in making this decision was because it was a method that would never be used under normal circumstances.

After all, the guild's livelihood depends on commissions.

S-class mages often carry out extremely important commissions.

Therefore, arbitrarily moving S-rank mages who are carrying out important commissions will only have an indelible impact on the guild's reputation.

Like Fairy Tail, they always manage to cause some trouble whenever they go on a mission.

Even so, they were still the most famous guild in the Kingdom of Fiore.

This is because, despite their tendency to cause trouble, Fairy Tail members always manage to complete their missions efficiently and smoothly.

Although their reputation isn't very good.

However, they have a very good reputation in the industry.

This is what they rely on to survive.

For this reason, guilds rarely mobilize S-rank mages arbitrarily.

But if it's for the safety of your companions, then all of these things can be sacrificed.

"There shouldn't be any problems with Erza this time, since she left in a hurry and the mission she took wasn't too difficult."

"Given Erza's strength, she should have already finished her mission and be on her way back!"

Mirajane said with certainty.

Chairman Makarov breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Miradje's words of comfort.

The entire Fairy Tail community acknowledges Erza's strength.

After all, that's Fairy Tail.

"If Erza needs to go and bring them back then, please let me go with Erza!"

Seeing this, Kotomine Shirou volunteered.

"What, Shirou, are you interested in S-rank missions too?"

Makarov asked with great interest.

"That's definitely one of the reasons. Besides that, I'm also a bit angry about the two of us and the cat who abandoned me."

As he spoke, Shirou Kotomine's lips curled up slightly.

Looking at his forced smile, everyone around him felt a chill.

This guy is definitely cunning.

That's what everyone around thought.

"Furthermore, given Natsu's personality, I think it's better to guide than to block. Since Natsu isn't qualified to take on S-rank missions, how about Erza takes them instead?"

"Since we're going to the Cursed Island anyway, we might as well complete the mission while we're at it."

"How about this, we'll assume Erza will lead the team in this mission? Of course, Natsu and Lucy's punishment is still necessary."

"If Erza agrees, then of course it's possible."

After a moment's thought, Chairman Makarov gave his answer.

Ultimately, the reason he divided adventure missions into levels was not to differentiate the strength of the guild members.

It's to protect them!

If Erza is willing to lead the team, they can accept even S-rank missions.

Furthermore, Erza has enough strength and prestige to manage Natsu and Gray, making her undoubtedly the best choice.

"I don't think Erza will refuse."

Kotomine Shirou chuckled softly to himself.

His real purpose was to work with Erza to deal with Natsu and Lucy.

As for the mission on the cursed island?

With Erza there, it wouldn't be an easy task.

As for the battle on the island?

Shirou Kotomine felt that Natsu and the others were more than capable.

Besides, it's not like he and Erza aren't going.

It's just a little later.

Shirou Kotomine knew very well that he couldn't suppress Natsu and Lucy with his prestige alone.

I guess neither of them is afraid of me.

So even if I went, it wouldn't make any sense.

But Erza is different.

Natsu, Lucy, and Greyhab all have a natural fear of Erza.

This is something Erza has accumulated over a long period of time.

This is something that even Shirou Kotomine cannot reach.

.

Soon, it was afternoon.

Gray did not return.

This is undoubtedly disappointing.

But Erza did not disappoint; instead, she surprised everyone.

Mirajane hadn't even had a chance to inform Erza before Erza returned.

It was almost noon, and everyone in the guild was anxiously waiting for the results.

Just then, the guild's door was suddenly pushed open violently.

The person who came into everyone's view was Erza.

However, Erza's entrance was marked by her shouting, "Come on, Shirou! This time I won't lose to you again!"

Clearly, she had mentally prepared herself during the days she was gone.

But before she could react, everyone rushed to her side and told Erza what was happening.

And so, Erza, burning with rage, appeared.

Enraged, she smashed the table next to her to pieces with a single punch.

"How dare you break the guild rules, Natsu, Lucy, and Happy! I'll bring them all back."

Erza immediately promised.

Having said that, an angry Erza turned to walk outside.

"Wait, Erza, I'll go with you."

Kotomine Shirou quickly approached Erza and explained his previous plan to her.

Erza did not refuse.

Erza was angry at Natsu and the others for their actions, but she was even angrier at their impulsiveness.

They were too reckless.

This act of putting herself in danger naturally angered her.

Moreover, she understands the principle that it's better to guide than to block.

Even if she hasn't taken on a task, she will complete it first if possible.

In that case, it's better to accept the commission in advance.

Otherwise, Erza won't get a single penny.

Erza is actually quite short of money because she keeps making magical items.

Erza would never take money that she shouldn't have.

That concerns the guild's reputation.

However, Erza wouldn't refuse if the money was reasonable.

After all, her strength is related to her magical items.

And making these things also requires money!

So, after receiving Shirou Kotomine's advice, Erza accepted the mission to the Cursed Island and set off for Karna, the Cursed Island, with Shirou Kotomine.
