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

Chapter 8 Open the door to another world!

"Good morning, Miss Mirajane, Miss Lucky."

When Rhodes arrived at the guild, Mirajane and Lucky were already wiping the table.

Although it was wiped down last night, it still needs to be wiped down again before starting business.

"Good morning, Rod."

Mirajane's smile was still as bright as ever, "Also, please don't use the honorific. Just call me Mira like everyone else."

"Me too, just call me Lucky."

"Mira, Lucky?" Rhodes tried to shout and said politely, "Then I have overstepped my bounds."

Mira corrected: "This context does not reach the level of using 'transgression'."

Lucky held her face, her long purple hair half covering her hands, showing a narcissistic expression:

"Perhaps Rhodes wants to express that he treats us as princesses or queens?"

Rhodes denied: "Sorry, there is no such thing."

After helping a little bit, Rhodes sat at the counter and had breakfast, which was a very ordinary combination of milk and sandwich.

The price is much cheaper than the curry rice I had yesterday, but it tastes great.

I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but it’s obviously the same food, but it tastes better the day I woke up—maybe I was too hungry at that time.

Rhodes was half leaning against the counter and enjoying his breakfast while watching the people entering the guild one after another.

There are many styles of clothing in this world, including Chinese cheongsam and mandarin jacket, Japanese kimono and yukata, and European dresses and tuxedos.

Modern and simple casual wear sweatshirts like what Rod is wearing now are not uncommon.

In addition to these, there are also some quite peculiar costumes. For example, there is a very beautiful girl who wears double horns on her head, a tiger-print chest-high slit dress, tiger-print sleeves on her arms, and long tiger-stripes on her feet. Boots, the soles are even shaped like tiger claws.

The whole person looks like a little tiger with long horns, full of wild beauty.

"That's Honey, Honey Chikintag." Mira introduced, "She's nicknamed the Ghost Princess."

"ah?"

"Rhode has been staring at her since the beginning. Could it be that..." Mira showed a gossipy expression and enthusiastically gave Rhodes advice.

"Miji likes fighting very much. If you care, go and have a fight with her. If you can win, she will definitely look at her differently."

"No, it's not..." There were a lot of flaws in this statement, so Rhodes sorted out his thoughts.

"I just think her costume is unusual, and... aren't we all magicians? Why do we like fighting?"

Mira asked strangely: "Shouldn't magicians be good at fighting?"

"Demon..." Rhodes was silent. Could it be that my perception is strange?

Thinking about it carefully, during the past few days in the guild, I often saw everyone fighting and punching each other.

Yesterday I saw the president punching two guys who overturned the table into the floor...

The magicians in this world don't follow the melee combat route of magic warriors, right? —

The tavern was usually not too busy in the morning. After Makarov arrived, Rhodes started his first magic class.

"Generally speaking, if you want to use magic, you need something called magic power."

"Magic is a special kind of 'qi' that exists not only in our bodies, but also widely in nature."

"When the 'qi' in our bodies harmonizes with the fluctuations of 'qi' in nature, magic will manifest."

"To do this requires a considerable degree of mental strength and concentration..."

Since Rhodes knew nothing about magic, Makarov had to start from the most basic things.

As for more profound theories, about emotions, about the soul, and about the power of the 'heart', we have to wait until Rhodes' magic practice reaches a certain level before talking about it, or until he understands it on his own. "Is there magic in my body?" Rhodes has always been worried about this. He is not even a person in this world.

Fortunately, Makarov gave him reassurance: "Of course there is, but it's not easy to detect it yet."

"It's not easy for ordinary people to discover and strengthen the 'qi' in their bodies. The usual method is meditation."

"But for you, you can feel the magic through another way first."

Rhodes asked: "What to do?"

"First, focus on the pendant and try to call it in your heart. Then, try the spell I adapted from the magic of the stars."

Makarov taught Rhodes the spell word for word, and Rhodes followed it like a parrot.

"Just try it if you remember it."

"Here?" Rhodes looked at his companions in the tavern worriedly, "Will he cause trouble?"

Makarov said: "Don't worry, with your current magic power, you can't summon a creature that's too powerful. Even if you can, you can't maintain it."

"..." Rhodes didn't like this answer at all.

But since the president said it doesn’t matter, then we’ll do it.

He held the necklace pendant and stared closely at the gold and blue icon. After a few seconds, he seemed to really feel some connection between himself and it.

Rhodes hurriedly recited the magic spell: "I am the person who bridges the road between the two worlds. You, a creature from another world, answer my call and pass through the door!"

The pendant emitted golden and blue light, and there was magic power gathering in the air. Rhodes squeezed the pendant tightly and shouted the last words:

"Open the door to another world!"

Buzz~~~

A thick and atmospheric sound effect sounded, and a vortex emitting blue light appeared in front of Rhodes, with little stars twinkling in the vortex.

Through this whirlpool, it seems that you can feel the cold air of another world and hear the sound of the cold wind whistling across the cliff.

In such a cold and chilling atmosphere, a figure leaped out from the whirlpool.

The light and sound of magic attracted the attention of most people in the tavern.

This must be a powerful and ruthless creature!

Everyone thinks so, and Rhodes thinks so too.

However, when the vortex disappeared, there was only a palm-sized, furry white object on the ground.

"Ululu?" The little guy made a strange cry, seeming a little confused.

But soon its eyes were fixed on Rhodes, and then it spit out its big pink tongue, ran towards Rhodes on its short legs, and hugged his calf.

Rhodes was a little confused. He looked at the little fur ball and thought it looked familiar. He bent down and picked it up to take a closer look.

Black eyes, round body. It has white and soft hair like a sheep, a pair of small curved horns on its head, and a long tongue sticking out like a puppy.

Rod put it on the counter and touched his head. The little guy turned over comfortably, revealing his heart-shaped pink belly.

"Poro?" Rhodes recognized this cute little guy based on his experience in the Howling Abyss.

"Uluru~" The little Poro's voice was full of happiness, as if he had found a meal ticket.

Rhodes: "..."

The thing summoned by this magic seems to be different from what I thought!
