Fairy Tail: I Don’t Want to Be the President

Chapter 13 Lane Engine Team

Receiving magic: Magic that can absorb the body of an animal for its own use and enhance its own power.

The risk of this magic is that if you forcefully accept a monster that is too powerful, but you do not have enough strength or willpower, you may lose your mind, or even go berserk until you die of exhaustion.

The basic practice methods are as follows…

Snap!

Rhodes closed the book and looked at the cover carefully. It was the Encyclopedia of Magic.

Just open an encyclopedia, and the methods of practicing magic are clearly written in it?

Is this content I can watch without paying?

Boom! Worm fell off Rhode's shoulder and hit the book cover. He turned over in a daze, somewhat confused about the situation.

"I see, you really don't like studying."

Rhodes put Worm back on his shoulders, and then left the library holding the large encyclopedia - just in case, he had to confirm whether he could read the book.

…

"Encyclopedia of Magic? Of course, no problem." Mira said, "There are no books in the library that are not allowed to be read."

"But there are even methods for learning various magics, won't there be any problems?"

"But the purpose of putting this kind of books in the library is for people to learn."

Mira probably guessed what Rhode was worried about, "Don't worry, some dangerous magic will not be placed there casually."

Rhodes nodded: "Oh... Then I will be unscrupulous."

"That's not the way to be unscrupulous..."

Rhodes waved his hand and returned to the library, reading quietly.

Celestial magic is divided into holding magic based on how it is used, and space magic based on the type of action.

At the same time, it is an ancient magic that has been passed down for more than 400 years.

Each star spirit corresponds to a constellation in the sky, and has its own 'medium', which is a key.

Ordinary star spirits correspond to silver keys, while the twelve most powerful star spirits correspond to twelve gold keys.

Because Rhodes was reading a magic encyclopedia rather than a specialized book on Star Spirit magic, the above introduction is relatively superficial.

The learning method actually records the method of opening the door after holding the key and the process of signing a contract with the protoss.

But Rhodes had already learned the important part from the president.

More detailed content requires Rhodes to look for specialized information, such as books on ancient magic and space magic.

He looked around at the sea of ​​books... This was really no small project.

Rod spent hours in the library.

Worm fell asleep and woke up on the desk, woke up and fell asleep again, and finally woke up from hunger, making a slight "snoring" sound to remind Rod that it was almost time to eat.

Rhodes stood up and stretched and looked at the time: "It's almost five o'clock. I have worked harder than when I studied at school... If I keep working hard like this, I will become a magic master sooner or later!"

"Uluru~" Worm's little horn drooped, as if urging him to finish bragging and leave quickly.

It was impossible to go fast. Rhodes had to put the book in his hand back to its original place, and then went to the bathroom to wash his hands again before returning to the tavern to work.

As a waiter, I usually start the meal earlier or later so as not to be too busy when it’s time for the meal.

Rhodes and Mira also chose to go in advance. During this period, when guests came to the tavern to order food, someone had to immediately put down their jobs and go over to receive them, which was quite troublesome.

"Sister Mira, we are back!"

A girl with blue hair walked in together with two tall and thin boys.

"Lebby! Welcome back! Jet and Troy too!" Some people chatting in the tavern welcomed the three of them immediately. It seemed that they were quite popular.

Mira immediately put down her bowls and chopsticks and greeted him: "Welcome, it's two days later than expected. Is the mission going well?"

"Well!" Lebby said excitedly, "The client is a good person and invited us to spend two more days at the Shiloh store."

"Hey~~" Mira deliberately showed a difficult expression, "If you increase the reward without authorization, it will be against the rules."

"I'm not increasing the remuneration without authorization." Lebby hugged Mira's arm and used a slightly coquettish tone.

"The client said it was just in case something unexpected happened in the future...it was just used as 'after-sales service' or something..."

Her height is only a little higher than Mira's shoulders, and she is a quite petite and cute girl.

Sitting next to Mira like this makes it even more adorable. At least Jet and Troy both have envious expressions on their faces—envy of Mira.

"Then... let's consider you passing." Mira closed one eye. It seemed that they had a good relationship.

"Thank you, Sister Mira!" Lebi let go of Mira, handed the task list back to her for registration, and asked, "Have there been any changes in the guild?"

"It's basically the same as before...but a new guy came here recently, and I wanted to ask you for help because of the language problem a few days ago."

Lebby stood on tiptoes, put her hands on the counter, and asked, "What? What's going on?"

The magic she uses is three-dimensional writing, which can use magic to write words and give them real meaning.

For example, if you write a word that represents fire, the words will actually turn into flames and be emitted.

Perhaps it is because of this magic that Lebby knows many ancient texts and is full of interest in everything related to language and writing.

"That's it..." Mira briefly talked about Rhodes while helping Lebby register the mission.

"...I'll introduce him to you later. Now Rhodes should also need your help."

Jett and Troy, who were standing behind Lebby like two generals, instantly noticed the key word: "Him?"

Rhodes had already finished his meal at a fast pace and was ready to come over to take over.

It happened that Mira introduced him: "This is Rod. This is Rebby, Jet and Troy."

In fact, Rod had already been introduced to Lucky once, but before he could say hello, Jet had jumped onto the nearest table.

Rebby also jumped on the stool next to the table, while Troy stepped on the stool with one foot and the table with the other.

The three of them each posed handsomely and said loudly:

"We are—the Lane Engine Team!"

Two buddies who were drinking nearby were startled by the three of them.

Rhodes was also embarrassed by these three. Seeing the performance of these three, he could only think of the Rockets.

Rhodes raised his hand, not knowing whether to applaud or scratch his goosebumps.

He covered his mouth with one hand and leaned into Mira's ear: "Um...they are not the type who are very independent and can cause trouble, right?"

Mira thought for a while: "How should I put it...compared to Natsu, they cause very little trouble."

Rhodes already knew that Natsu was a troublemaker, and most of the reward from each job was used to compensate for the things he destroyed.

If he caused less trouble than Natsu... Rhodes sighed, which is a very disturbing description.

Could such a petite and cute girl like Lebby be a troublemaker?

Lane Engine, also called Shadow Gear, translation problem

Jet is also called Jed and Jet, which is actually a nickname. His original name is Salusuke.
