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

Chapter 68 Dendrobium Orchid Village

Dendrobium Orchid Village is built about two kilometers away from Dendrobium Orchid Mountain. It is right to say that it is at the foot of the mountain, so it is named after the mountain.

The Dendrobium Mountain Range has five peaks and stretches for dozens of kilometers. Because the mountains are relatively gentle, it provides a good growing environment for many plants and a good living environment for animals.

It is said that people rely on mountains to eat mountains and rely on water to drink water. In the past, when the harvest was not good, the villagers of Dendrobium Village often went to the mountains to pick and hunt. At the same time, they would also guard against wild beasts that occasionally came down the mountains to look for food.

Because of this, the villagers cut down wood and used rough wood to build a tall wooden wall outside the village.

There are even two guard towers on the left and right inside the wall and on both sides of the gate.

Two members of the Orion team were standing guard on the guard tower.

They saw a strange big crab running nearby and then suddenly disappeared. They thought it was because they were too tired and their eyesight was dazzled, so now they are complaining about why their companions haven't come to change shifts.

At this moment, they saw six strange beasts slowly walking towards the gate.

"Bit! A strange beast is coming!"

"I saw it, Mastiff! It shouldn't be a dazzle this time." The young man known as Bit picked up the bow and arrow,

"Ring the bell and tell everyone...wait a moment! There is someone, there is someone on the back of the beast."

As the six figures approached, the two guards saw two of the strange beasts carrying a black-haired boy, a cherry-haired boy, and what appeared to be a cat on their backs.

Not only that, those beasts are walking backwards, because they are dragging something. If you look closely, it seems to be a wild boar?

Rhodes noticed someone on the sentry tower pointing bows and arrows at them, and quickly raised his hand to tell the stone beetles to stop.

Natsu looked at the man holding the bow and arrow warily, and shouted, "We are the magicians of Fairy Tail, and we have accepted the commission to conquer the beasts!"

When they heard that it was a magician, the two of them relaxed their vigilance slightly, but Mastiff still held on to the rope that rang the bell and asked, "What's going on with those monsters?"

"It's my magic, used to transport wild boars defeated on the road." Rhodes waved his hand, making the three stone beetles disappear, and the wild boar they dragged fell to the ground.

Bit finally put away his bow and arrows, but said again: "Please come closer, we need to confirm your coat of arms before we can open the door."

Natsu and Happy jumped off the stone beetle and went to the gate to display their crests, one on their right arm and one on their back.

Rhodes sat on the stone beetle and walked forward. He was worried that the opponent would have a brain attack, so he immediately pulled Natsu and Habi to escape.

Fortunately, this didn't happen.

The two guards confirmed that they both had the Fairy Tail crest and immediately turned the winch and raised the gate.

This way of opening the door made Rhodes very uneasy. He always felt that the rope might suddenly break when passing through, and then the door would fall and crush him.

"I'm very sorry, I was so rude just now." Mastiff looked at the stone beetles dragging the wild boars into the door and asked, "Excuse me, these wild boars..."

"On the way here, we encountered these wild boars destroying the wheat fields, so we took them away."

Rhodes said, "But a large area of ​​wheat fields was also destroyed during the battle. I don't know if we can use them to compensate."

Mastiff said quickly: "So that's it. Please don't blame yourself. If you don't stop them, they will also destroy it."

Natsu smiled at Rhodes and said, "How about I just say it's no problem?"

Rhodes looked at him and said, "No problem. If I hadn't come today, this guy would regret what he said."

Rhodes asked Naz to take out the power of attorney and asked:

"May I ask where Mr. Panser Leopard lives? We need to confirm the details of the mission with the client."

"That's the name of the village chief. I'll take you there." Mastiff said, "Bit, this place is left to you."

Bit nodded: "Remember to call someone to deal with the wild boar."

Mastiff waved his hand and walked in front to guide Rhodes, Natsu and Habi.

The village chief's house is located on a street in the center of the village. The main body is a two-story building with a large yard attached.

"Village Chief, the magician from Fairy Tail is here!" Because the door to the courtyard was open, Mastiff shouted outside the door and led Rhodes and the others in, waiting in the courtyard.

Rhodes took the opportunity to observe the terrain.

The yard of the village chief's house is not small. There is a cowshed on the left side near the door. A cow stands there chewing something.

On the right side is the chicken coop. Because it is getting late, there are no chickens running around outside. Occasionally, there will be a clucking sound in the chicken coop.

Further inside, there is a slightly crude house on each side, which may be a woodshed and a warehouse.

‘If the situation is urgent, you can ask the stone beetle to escape and run away. The courtyard wall is not too high, so you can probably ask the sharp-beaked bird to fly out on its back. It is not impossible to ask the river crab to hit the wall. ’

‘If you don’t have time to call the wild monster, you can also climb over the wall directly by stepping on the chicken coop, or climb the cowshed. ’

Rhodes planned several escape routes and felt much more at ease.

At this time, an old man about fifty years old walked out with a cane, followed by a beautiful woman less than thirty years old.

The old man has sunken eyes and a sad face. He may be worried about things in the village.

The beautiful woman's lips were slightly white, and her face looked sad, as if she had just cried.

"Are you two the magicians who accepted the commission?" The village chief's voice was old and a little tired.

"There are three of them. Our name is Happy, and he is also a wizard of Fairy Tail!"

Hubby sprouted wings from his back and flew up, turning his back to show his coat of arms.

Natsu and Rhodes said their names.

"I'm sorry, I'm rude. I am the village chief here, Panser Leopard. This is my daughter-in-law, Snow." After the village chief introduced him, he made a gesture of invitation, "Please sit inside, you three." Bar."

"Village Chief, there is one more thing..." Mastiff told him about the wild boar.

"That kind of thing doesn't matter. Let's wait until the wizard gentlemen resolve the matter and then check whose wheat it is."

Panser leaned on his crutches with both hands, "Let's do what the wizards want at that time. If it's not enough, it doesn't matter if I pay the compensation."

"No, Grandpa Village Elder." Natsu was the first to retort, "We must pay for the things our Fairy Tail wizards destroy! Right, Happy, Rhodes?"

You are so proud!

This is indeed the rule, Rhodes nodded helplessly.

"Then it's decided, Mastiff, you go do your own thing first."

"Yes, village chief."

Mastiff left, and Rhodes frowned. He felt that the village chief seemed a little anxious, wouldn't there be any problem?

Several people followed Panser and Sino into the living room. The beautiful woman Sino poured tea for them and stood quietly behind Panser.

He picked up the teacup and put it to his mouth, pretending to drink it, and taking a look at the layout of the living room, Rhodes finally discovered the problem.

A picture of a grown man hangs on the living room wall—black and white.

If you look closely, you can see that Panser and Snow both have black cloth belts on their sleeves.

Was it one of their relatives who recently lost their life to a wild beast?

There is actually one more step to take on the task, but I have omitted it.

The guild will usually notify the client that the task has been accepted after the wizard sets off, using a communication magic crystal or a communication bird to send a letter. Sometimes, brief information of the acceptor will be attached to facilitate both parties to confirm their identity to avoid counterfeiting.

A similar method can be used to issue a commission, and the trustee does not necessarily need to go to the guild in person.
