The magic merchant who mingled with Fairy Tail

I didn't go to Philide to ask about it. Nonsense. If he knew, would he still be sitting here?

So Kira turned around and walked towards Bigusro, and found that he was preparing for tomorrow's battle with Natsu. Well... just eating and drinking well to replenish his strength.

Kira asked Bigusro where Laxus was, but he didn't know either, which made Kira confused: "This guy doesn't even want his subordinates. Could it be that he can't stand the blow? He can't find anyone by running alone." Did you secretly wipe your tears wherever you arrived?"

"Hehehe... How is that possible? Laxus is not a child anymore!"

Bigusro smiled and said, he is about the same age as Laxus, about 4 or 5 years older than Natsu and others, and a little more mature mentally.

On the surface, Laxus and the Thunder Gods have a relationship between followers and followers. In fact, they are just another name for a team that forms a group to do tasks. There are only middle school boys like Philid and Abagnale. It was Lin's withdrawn character who would follow her one by one. In contrast, Bigusro joined more because he thought it was fun.

"But I seem to have seen him going out yesterday. He must have gone on a mission, right?"

Kira frowned and said, "Going on a mission at this time? Although the game has nothing to do with him, he doesn't care at all, right?"

"Who knows?"

Originally, during the Harvest Festival, Laxus would organize the Thunder Gods to start a civil strife. In order to seize power, he would not hesitate to take guild members and innocent citizens of Magnolia as hostages. It was simply crazy.

But now, because of Kira's rise in the Demonic Conference, Laxus's plan to seize power has been aborted. What's more, he hasn't even passed the preliminary rounds and hasn't even made it to the top sixteen.

Although everyone knows that this ranking is very important, outsiders don't know it! Among the five S-class wizards, he was the only one who did not enter the semi-finals. People who don't know may think that Laxus is not worthy of his reputation.

For Laxus, it was a shame that he failed to pass the preliminary round. He was already very high-spirited, but it was completely unknown what he would do after suffering repeated blows.

"I just hope he won't do anything too extreme..." Kira sighed, turned around and walked towards Marklov, deciding to talk to him about her worries, "Probably not, after all, according to his nature , Laxus is not a bad person."

After listening to Kira's worries, Marklov said with a solemn face: "Kira, you must not tell anyone about this!"

Kira nodded silently, thinking: 'Sure enough, the president is also feeling troubled by Laxus' rebellion? Now that things are happening as they were without the original plot, can Laxus realize his mistakes and change his ways? ’

"In fact, Laxus was sent on a mission by me!"

Kira: "??!!"

Seeing the shock in Kira's eyes, Marklov nodded with satisfaction: 'Unexpected, right? You kid also shows this expression sometimes! Now you know what I’m doing, right? ’

"You heard it right! I was the one who sent him there. Because the matter involved a lot and needed to be kept secret, I didn't tell anyone else!"

"Wait...wait...what are you talking about?" The development of the matter was beyond Kira's expectation, and she was speechless. "You said you sent Laxus?"

"That's right!" Marklov nodded.

Kira still couldn't believe it: "It doesn't matter if you lied to me. I can be fooled by you and the smile will pass. But when you go home and face an empty house, don't sit on the sofa alone and wipe your tears." …”

Marklov: "..."

Why don't I know you are so eloquent on weekdays?

"That's right." After coughing twice, Marklov leaned closer and whispered: "According to the news from the Senate, the Dark Guild has been making frequent moves recently, so I sent Laxus out to inquire about this matter."

Kira's eyes widened with disbelief on his face: "Nani? Going to spy on the Dark Guild alone? Laxus actually did such...such a dangerous thing?"

Is this still Laxus?

"In order not to be discovered by people from the Dark Guild, I specially divided the Magic Tournament into six days and invited reporters to publicize it. I just wanted to divert the attention of the magic world here and make it easier for Laxus to act secretly. !”

Kira suddenly understood, and was shocked but also a little excited: "So, the reason why Laxus failed to pass the preliminary round is also..."

"Yes, he did it on purpose. Otherwise, with Laxus's familiarity with Felide, how could he fall into his magic trap so easily?" At this time, Marklov chuckled, stroking his beard, He had the attitude of an old military advisor strategizing, "But even Philide doesn't know about this."

Kira glanced at the gloomy Felide and nodded silently. That's right. If Felide acted with Laxus, then his acting skills would be great!

A serious threat to his position as the "Best Actor in Fairy Tail"!

"But how did you convince him?"

Kira still had one final point of confusion. Assuming what Marklov said was true, why did Laxus agree? He had agreed with himself that the decisive battle would take place at the Harvest Festival!

Marklov: "Hahaha, at that time..."

Three days ago, Marklov's house.

"What? You want me to give up this competition and go explore that dark guild who doesn't know where it is?" Laxus asked Marklov loudly, "I refuse! Why should I agree to you do such a thing? !”

"Laxus, calm down!" Marklov said, "Listen to me, those dark guilds are very troublesome. Once they are fully formed, it will be a serious disaster for the magic world! You are the most important person in this matter. Only you can be a good executive candidate!"

Laxus said disdainfully: "What does that have to do with me?! Do you know, I have been waiting for this day for a long time! The 'Fairy Tail First Demonic Convention' held this time is where Kira and I completely separated It’s time to win or lose!”

Marklov was silent for a while and said, "Laxus, this conference is organized by Kira. Are you really convinced?"

"Old man, what do you mean?"

"If you want to completely defeat him, you should set your own rules! Why should you follow the rules he set?" Marklov was like a bewitching demon, his voice full of temptation, "You have to think It’s clear, do you really want to participate in a competition like that?”

Laxus looked at his grandfather in disbelief, as if it was the first day he met him: "What are you going to say? Of course I..."

"Under the rules he sets, you will be like a child playing a game, passing all the way, happily accepting the opponents and victories he arranges for you, and waiting until the last day for the chance to fight him."

Speaking of this, Marklov's tone suddenly became serious and he asked in a loud voice: "You are Laxus, when did you need this kind of hand-in-hand opportunity that is given by others?!"

Laxus was silent for a moment. He didn't know why his grandfather would say such destructive words, but the more he thought about it, the more it made sense: "But...if I just leave like this, wouldn't I admit defeat?"

"How is that possible?" Marklov said with a strange expression, as if he had heard a big joke, "Why do you think so?"

"Everyone knows that, except for me, the strongest mage in Fairy Tail must be Gildarts! While they are still competing for the false title of 'Fairy Tail is the strongest', you are fighting for Isn’t it more noble than them to run for peace in the magical world?”

Sensing that Laxus was a little shaken, Marklov struck while the iron was hot and continued: "The situation needs to be opened up a little. Think about it, when they are holding that 'trophy' and ready to show off in front of you, you just say it directly

‘Is that kind of thing worth fighting over for you? I've long since stopped watching! You ask where I went? While you were playing house, I solved the dark guild that troubled both the old man and the Council by myself! ’

In this case, isn't he more mature than them? "

Laxus's eyes lit up, and he sneered: "Sounds good! I agree!"

Marklov nodded with satisfaction.

Laxus' smile faded and he gave Marklov a complicated look.

"Old man, don't imitate that guy Kira anymore, the acting is too fake!"

"..."
