Zongman: Harem's Music

But when Nishimiya Tsutomu turned around and was about to leave, Lucy called him again.

"What's wrong?"

"you..."

Lucy paused and said, "Are you planning to go to war with the Phantom Ruler?"

"Are you going to compromise with your father?" Nishimiya Siyi was somewhat unsure.

Lucy didn't shake her head without thinking, but she didn't nod either. Instead, she frowned and was obviously hesitant.

Nishimiya Tsuyoshi: "Then let me ask this another way. Do you want to stay in the guild?"

Lucy nodded.

"Tell me clearly, do you want to stay in the guild?"

Lucy was a little flustered by Nishimiya Tsukasa's sudden seriousness: "I think so."

"that's enough."

Nishimiya Tsuyoshi smiled slightly: "Any attempt to override your will is a problem, and the guild is obligated to solve all problems for its members, so... no one can force you to do something you don't want to do, whether it's the Phantom or your father!"

"..."

Lucy couldn't help but tremble in her heart at Nishimiya Tsuyoshi's domineering attitude, but she still had doubts: "But..."

Nishimiya Tsuyoshi: "But what?"

"If the guild clashes with the Phantom Overlord, won't the other guild members be in danger?"

Lucy was very worried: "If someone loses his life because of this, I..."

"first."

Nishimiya Tsuyoshi interrupted her: "From the moment the Phantom's men attempted to attack the guild members and the guild building, they were provoking the entire Black and White Border Guild, and we usually retaliate against such provocations tenfold!"

"Secondly."

Nishimiya Tsukasa smiled again: "Since you, Lucy, have realized that someone might sacrifice themselves to solve your problem, then be prepared to sacrifice your life to solve the problem for your companions."

""

Lucy was stunned for a moment, then she understood and nodded heavily, smiling tearfully: "Yeah!"

Around 4 a.m., Yeso returned after tracking Gajeel.

"Have you found the location of the ghost?"

The headquarters of the Phantom Overlord Guild is a movable mechanical castle, so it does not have fixed coordinates, but as long as he can get its approximate location, Nishimiya Tsuyoshi is confident that he can quickly locate it.

"Sir, we don't need to go through so much trouble!"

Yesuo, hunched over, curled his lips. "The Phantom Guild Leader is planning to mobilize the entire guild to launch a surprise attack on us tomorrow afternoon. Their trump card is the [Magic Cannon Jupiter]... They're even planning to destroy the neighboring buildings as well."

The next door naturally refers to Fairy Tail!

"The founders of Phantom Flame and Fairy Tail have a long-standing grudge. This incident has nothing to do with Fairy Tail, yet you're trying to drag them into this?"

Nishimiya Tsuyoshi raised his lip as he spoke, "Then let's do as they wish. Let's give them the initiative. On the surface, we'll be in the same passive state as Fairy Tail. We, Black and White, Fairy Tail next door, and Spectre... the three pillars of the magic guild world. The Magic Council doesn't have the guts to disband all three of us at once. As long as it's based on passive self-defense, even if it's a bit excessive, the Magic Council won't say anything. Once we annihilate Spectre's top fighters, Spectre will only be the only discarded pawn."

After saying that, he looked at Yesuo and said, "Also, stop issuing quests tomorrow and have everyone stay on standby in the guild!"

"understand!"

After Yeso left, Nishimiya Tsuyoshi murmured, "President Joseph Pola of the Holy Ten, how many points are you worth? Let me see!"

……

The next day.

Fairy Tail Guild.

"Hey, did you hear? Someone attacked the neighbors yesterday, and someone even tried to kidnap the newcomer next door!"

"Well, the neighbors have stopped issuing missions and started gathering members. It looks like they're going to make a big move."

""

Behind the counter, the sisters Miralisana and Lisanna, who were chatting happily, stopped at the same time. Kana, who was holding a barrel of wine, also cast a slight glance at the people discussing.

"The president."

Mira looked at Markov who was not far away: "I suddenly remembered something, could you please help look after the counter?"

Asking for flowers

""

Markov wondered, "Isn't Lisanna here? Why bother an old man like me?"

Lisanna, who was outspoken, said subconsciously, "Because I want to go over and take a look, too!"

Markov raised an eyebrow. "Go? Where?"

"The past is the past!"

Mira gave a very vague explanation, then took her sister's hand, left the counter without saying anything, and trotted towards the guild gate.

Tons~tons~tons~tons~tons~

Kana, who drank the remaining third of a barrel of wine in one breath, also followed secretly.

Markov, who had seen everything, burped: "Oh, woman!"

"Kana-chan? You?"

Mira, who was about to enter the Black and White Guild, discovered Kana secretly following her.

"Forehead..."

Kana felt inexplicably guilty, but she pretended to be calm: "I owed Nishimiya a favor, so I came to take a look."

"Huh? Really? Why haven't I heard him mention it before?"

Mira thought for a moment and smiled: "Well, since we have met, let's go in together."

Kana nodded.

There are far more people in the Black and White Guild today than usual, but the atmosphere is not as heavy as imagined.

Mira, Lisanna, and Cana, who came with concerns, were stunned when they saw this.

Is the rumor wrong???

Lisanna suddenly took two quick steps and hugged the left arm of Nishimiya Siyi, who was walking towards the counter with an empty cup, and called out sweetly, "Brother Siyi!"

"Lisanna?"

Looking at the short-haired girl who was pressing herself against him without any defense, Nishimiya Tsukasa looked at Mira and Cana behind Lisanna and smiled faintly, "Come over and play? Markbeth, triple black tea!"

"it is good!"

Mark Beth, the vice president, bartender, and refreshment chef, nodded.

"Go sit over there!"

Nishimiya Tsuyoshi pointed to the window where Erza, Sono, Lucy, and Bisca were sitting. "I'll get some more wine and be right back."

Chapter 551: An Accidental Success (Part 1)

“So that’s what’s going on…”

Mira and the other two nodded, knowing the specific situation instead of just hearsay.

"President Joseph of the Phantom Guild and President Markov are both members of the Holy Ten. If they really attack with the full force of the guild, things will be very troublesome!"

Mira murmured to Nishimiya Tsuyoshi, "Do you need me to go back and ask Guild Master Markov for help? Spectre has clearly crossed the boundaries of guild fighting. Guild Master Markov won't sit idly by."

"Humph!"

Erza said disdainfully: "Why should we ask people from other guilds to deal with our guild's affairs?"

"Oh."

Mira looked at Erza: "Does Erza care more about face than safety?"

Erza was not afraid at all: "Because we don't need to rely on the help of outsiders!"

Mirajane: "But wouldn't it be better to be as safe as possible and go with 790?"

Erza: "Even without the help of other guilds, it's still very safe!"

Mirajane: "Your definition of 'safe' is clearly flawed. Safe is when you have the greatest chance of winning. 100+100 is safe, and 100+1 is also safe!"

Erza: "Is it your definition of a guild that's wrong? Is a guild that relies on the power of other guilds still a guild?"

Mirajane: "Where did you hear this nonsense?"

Looking at Erza and Mirajane who were on edge, Lucy looked at Nishimiya Tsutomu and whispered: "Hey, what are they doing..."

"Well, we're just discussing, there's no chance of fighting!" Nishimiya Tsutomu, who was already used to it, smiled.

"Oh!"

Lucy nodded slightly.

"Brother Siyi, let me add some tea for you."

"Thank you Lisanna!"

"Hey, Tsuyoshi."

Mira and Erza looked at Nishimiya Tsukasa at the same time, their eyes widening: "Who do you think is more reasonable?"

"Hmm? Oh..."

Nishimiya Tsuyoshi, who had been mentally prepared, said calmly, "You both have your reasons. Erza emphasized the importance of guild independence. Guilds that rely on others to survive lack the pride and cohesion of truly powerful guilds. Mira emphasized the importance of stability. After all, survival is the first priority, so..."

The eternal question: Which side are you on?

As for the current situation, Nishimiya Tsuyoshi is very lucky to have an intermediate station.

"Forget about the great god, President Markov, but Mira, Kana, and Lisanna, are you willing to stay and help Black and White?"

"Of course!" Lisanna said without hesitation.

"Since you said so..." This Kana.

Mira nodded directly.

Pole!

Nishimiya Tsuyoshi raised his hand and snapped his fingers, and three waiters came over holding three sets of uniforms.

Mira, Kana: →→

Lucy, Bisca: (o)...

Are you even ready for this???

"The uniform is..."

"After all, the other party's goal is black and white. If you participate as Fairy Tail, it is very likely to bring trouble to Fairy Tail!"

Nishimiya Tsuyoshi said seriously and then smiled: "Don't worry, it's not like you are mine just because you put on my clothes."

After the three women put on their windbreakers, Nishimiya Tsuyoshi examined them carefully. "Hmm... they might not fit you well. Leave your measurements before you leave, and I'll make them for you myself."

Mira, Cana, Lisanna: ""

Why can't I see in you the sense of urgency of facing a powerful enemy?

After drinking and chatting, it was noon in the blink of an eye. The time of the ghost's attack in the afternoon that Yeso had detected was getting closer and closer, but this did not affect the meal of everyone in the Black and White Guild.

Dong~dong~dong~

A man who rushed into the hall attracted the attention of everyone in black and white.

The man looked around: "Mira, where is Mira?"

Mira, who recognized the person, stood up and said, "Makao? Why are you here?"

Makao quickly said, "Alia, the Spectre and the Four Elements, attacked the guild. The guild leader was ambushed. Although they forced him back,... the guild leader seems to have been seriously injured."

Mira's pretty face instantly darkened.
