"I have a bad feeling. Will Natsu accidentally burn the surrounding woods? No, Takagi Akira, you must hurry up and stop Natsu before he gets too excited."

Gao Muming looked at the forest not far from Oshibana City, his forehead full of dark lines, and spoke helplessly.

"President, I think you are a little late."

Just as Makarov said this, a huge pillar of fire shot up into the sky from the woods next to the city of Oshibana.

Hearing Gao Muming's words, Makarov turned his head stiffly and looked in the direction of Gao Muming's sight. What he saw was the red sky reflected by the fire.

"what……"

"President! Are you okay? Do you feel any discomfort after consuming so much mana to release super magic?"

Just when Makarov was about to scream, Takagi Akira caught a glimpse of the army that arrived with Erza, and without thinking, he shouted loudly and rushed to the side of President Makarov, covering Makarov's mouth with his hand.

While Makarov was struggling subconsciously, Takagi Akira leaned close to Makarov's ear and lowered the volume.

"President, you don't want the army to know that the burning of the forest is related to our guild, right? If the army finds out that it was Natsu who burned the forest, not to mention how much money we will have to pay, even the credit for recovering Larabai this time will be greatly discounted. You don't want to be scolded, do you?"

After hearing what Gao Muming said, Makarov stopped struggling. Knowing that Makarov had taken his words to heart, Gao Muming let go of Makarov.

After being released by Takagi Akira, Makarov, with a sad face, also lowered his voice.

"Don't you see how badly it's burned over there? It's such an obvious situation, we can't just play dumb and get away with it, right?"

"Hey, there's no way to hide something as obvious as a forest fire, but we can shift the blame for burning the forest."

Gao Muming smiled very cunningly, and at the same time raised his eyebrows proudly at Makarov.

"It just so happens that we have a ready-made target for blame, the dark guild Iron Forest that stole the spell song Lalabi and caused a big commotion in the surrounding area."

After hearing what Gao Muming said, Makarov immediately understood Gao Muming's thoughts and nodded frequently.

"That was done by the wizards of the Iron Forest. They set the forest on fire in order to create chaos and attract the people's attention, giving Eligor an opportunity to release the curse song. That's right."

"What's right? Speaking of which, shouldn't you be in Kroba City attending the regular meeting of the guild leaders? Why are you here?"

Erza's somewhat doubtful voice sounded beside the two of them.

In response to Erza's question, Takagi Akira replied with a smile.

"Didn't I tell you before that I had a backup plan? The night before I set off, I exchanged information with you and notified the president via letter, asking him to help."

Next to Erza, Gray was looking at Makarov nervously.

"President, is it because you released the super magic fairy's law that you lacked magic power and caused your physical illness?"

It's no wonder that Gray was a little nervous. After all, all the old members of the Fairy Tail guild knew that their president Makarov was in poor health and often had to ask Polyusica for medicine.

"I am fine."

Facing the worried eyes of several people, Makarov just shook his head to show that he was fine. After all, he was too embarrassed to tell them that he had just conspired with Takagi Akira to shift the blame of Natsu burning the forest to the Iron Forest.

After confirming that President Makarov was okay, Erza looked at the sealed Larabai and then glanced around. After not seeing Natsu, Erza frowned.

"Where's Natsu?"

"Someone from the Iron Forest set fire to the forest next to Oshibana City and disrupted the order. Natsu went to arrest them."

After hearing Takagi Akira's explanation, Erza nodded with great satisfaction.

"I see. Natsu is indeed a member of our guild. He is very enthusiastic."

Lucy and Gray, who had reacted, looked at Takagi Akira with a look on their face, saying, "You're lying."

The two men first looked at the fire burning in the forest, then looked at the army following them, and somehow they understood why Gao Muming was deceiving people like this.

In order to avoid being captured by the army around them, Gray and Lucy nodded smartly.

After hearing what Gao Muming said, the army captain Nidam thanked the few people and rushed into the forest with his men.

Not long after the army rushed into the fire, Natsu walked out scratching his head and looking unhappy.

"Damn it, that guy Eligore took the opportunity to escape."

After realizing that there was no one behind Natsu, Makarov hurriedly stepped forward and pulled Natsu, and without looking back, he took Takagi Akira and others back to Magnolia.

On the day when the group returned safely to Magnolia, they met the messenger of the Council who had been waiting for a long time at the door of their own guild.

When he saw the envoy of the Magic Council coming towards him and the Crescent Knights behind him, Makarov subconsciously thought that Natsu's burning of the forest had been exposed, and they came to capture him and bring him to the Council for criticism.

Just when Makarov was about to turn around and leave, the messenger of the Council who had been observing the surrounding situation had already discovered Makarov and his party.

"So slow, I've been waiting for you here for a long time, Mr. Makarov."

The Magic Council's messenger immediately came forward with the Crescent Knights behind them.

"You, what do you want from us?"

Seeing that he couldn't avoid it, Makarov spoke with a stammer.

The Council's messenger walked to Makarov, nodded to him, and then spoke slowly.

"The reason I came here to find you is related to the matter of the demon Larabai that you defeated in Oshibana City."

"In fact, not long after the practice, our Magic Council arrived at the battle scene to investigate, but did not find any trace of Larabai."

"After questioning the troops who were dealing with the forest fire nearby, I learned that you had sealed Lalabai and took him away."

"In order to prevent Larabai from being abused by someone with ulterior motives again, I was assigned to bring the forced restraint unit Crescent Knights to recover the curse song Larabai."

"As for the positive role you and your guild members played in the Iron Forest riot, the Council will finalize the rewards for each of you at a later meeting."

Seeing that the Council's envoy did not mention Natsu's intention of burning the forest at all, Makarov was visibly relieved, knowing that the blame was completely put on the Iron Forest.

Taking out Larabai from his arms, Makarov readily handed the cracked Larabai to the Council envoy.
