Marvel's Hogwarts Wizard

Chapter 524 The Best Candidate for President – ​​Jerry! (Third Update)

Makarov had actually been considering retirement for a long time.

His first choice for successor was, of course, his son Ivan Doraeus, but the harm he caused to the guild forced him to cruelly expel him from the guild.

Later, he considered Gildarts, whose strength was even greater than his own, but he was ruthlessly rejected by Gildarts, who was fond of traveling, as soon as he opened his mouth.

Therefore, he has persisted as the president until now and has not yet retired.

However, now that we see that many of the younger generation have grown up, it seems that we can start to seriously consider this matter again.

First of all, his grandson Laxus is ostensibly S-rank, but his true strength has reached the level of the Tenth Saint. As the guild leader, his strength is beyond question.

However, after thinking about it for a moment, he immediately crossed it out.

He's strong enough, but he has serious psychological issues. If he becomes the president, the spirit passed down by Fairy Tail will probably be destroyed.

After eliminating his own grandson in the name of righteousness, he then thought of Mystogan, whose true strength was also comparable to that of the Ten Wizard Saints, but he quickly ruled him out as well.

Even if someone has the ability, if they have psychological problems and are unable to communicate normally with others, how can they become the president?

Finally, Erza, whose strength was slightly lacking, was still at the S-rank.

However, thinking about how Erza, Natsu, Gray, and a few others had wiped out half the city just a few days ago, he suddenly felt that Erza might still be lacking in skill.

Looking at it this way, it seems he can't just step down so easily!

"Guild Master, all the injured have been healed. We can open a portal to send everyone back now!"

Just as Makarov was agonizing over who would succeed him, a gentle voice suddenly rang out behind him.

Turning my head, I saw Jerry, who had just acted as the therapist.

"Oh right, there's one more!"

Makarov's eyes lit up the moment he saw Jerry.

In terms of strength, Jerry defeated four S-class warriors in a row and was able to fight Joseph to a draw, so he is definitely at the level of the Tenth Saint.

Furthermore, Jerry possesses Time Arc magic, which can clean up messes for guild members; healing magic, which can heal injuries; and spatial magic, which allows for long-distance teleportation.

If Jerry were to become the president, with his all-around magical abilities, he could truly retire without any worries.

Most importantly, according to his observation, Jerry had absolutely no psychological problems.

Although Jerry has only been a member of the guild for a month, he has already become friends with all the mages in the guild. Everyone likes Jerry very much because of his Arc of Time and healing magic.

In this battle against the Spectre's ruler, Jerry made the greatest contribution, and his strength is evident to all. He has nothing to fear from making the guild members feel dissatisfied.

Another advantage Jerry has is that, unlike Gildarts and most of the guild members, he doesn't like to run around outside. He's someone who can sit still and stay in the guild for long periods of time.

The only minor drawbacks might be that the time spent in Fairy Tail was a little short, and that it seems to be hiding some of its own secrets.

But compared to the shortcomings of others, this shortcoming becomes insignificant.

Fairy Tail's rule is that once you join Fairy Tail, you are a member of Fairy Tail, let alone after a month.

Based on his many years of experience and his ability to judge people, he could tell that Jerry was not a problem in terms of character.

So now the only question to consider is whether Jerry is willing to be his successor.

To be honest, despite his analysis of so many candidates, he knew that among them, apart from Laxus, there wasn't a single person who truly wanted to be the chairman!

These people simply can't stay in the guild; they prefer to go out and carry out missions to improve their strength.

Moreover, Jerry's personality is very similar to that of the previous second-generation guild master, Precito, both of whom enjoy researching and learning various forms of magic.

Precito passed the position to him because he thought it was too much of a waste of time to study magic, and then ran away to study magic somewhere.

If he were to let Jerry take over as chairman, he doubted Jerry would agree.

"It seems we need to come up with a plan!"

"President, President, what are you thinking about?"

When Jerry saw Makarov turn his head and see him, his eyes lit up, but then he fell into deep thought and stood there in a daze. He immediately waved his hand in front of Makarov's face.

Jerry wouldn't use mind-reading magic like Legilimency on a powerful mage like Makarov, because it would be easily detected.

Therefore, he had no idea that Makarov was just brainstorming how to get Jerry to agree to take over as chairman.

"Oh, it's nothing. Thank you for your hard work. Open the portal, let's go back!"

Hearing Makarov's words, Jerry nodded without thinking much of it, assuming that Makarov was happy because he had used healing magic to heal everyone's injuries.

So he turned around and opened a portal to Magnolia City.

Now he really wants to learn Makarov's magic, so of course he has to show off a lot so that Makarov can see his indispensable value to Fairy Tail.

In that case, when he goes to consult the fairy about the law, Makarov might just agree to his request based on the value he has demonstrated.

He absolutely must learn the Fairy Law, an area-of-effect spell that can instantly kill a level 10 Saint Mage.

However, given his personality, he still wanted to learn this magic through the most peaceful means possible, rather than through any other violent means.

After all, this month at the Fairy Tail guild has actually been quite interesting.

Moreover, the atmosphere and genuine feelings within the guild did indeed have some influence on him.

However, if peaceful means don't work, he will have to resort to other means.

If he were to actually face Makarov, he could definitely subdue him before he could even unleash the magic of the fairies.

Thus, apart from a few people who needed to cooperate with the investigation, most of the guild's mages returned to the guild through the portal.

A week later, the council finally delivered its final verdict on the guild battle between Fairy Tail and Phantom Lord.

Due to the provocation by the Ghost Dominator guild and the dangerous ideas revealed by its leader Joseph, the council decided to disband the Ghost Dominator guild.

Fairy Tail reacted too strongly; although they did not disband the guild, they fined them for all the operating funds they had painstakingly saved up during this period.

According to Mirajin, Makarov fainted in his room on the spot when he heard the verdict.
