The magic merchant who mingled with Fairy Tail

In the Fairy Tail world, the life cycle of every organization is closely related to its strength or status. In other words, if this "Dragon Heart Processing Factory" can exist for so long, it either has an extraordinary status or has an extraordinary status. great power.

The so-called extraordinary status is at least like the Senate, Fairy Tail, or Demisol Magic Academy. And forces with this level of status are rare even in the entire Ishgar.

Therefore, it can basically be confirmed that it is the second type. The people here have extraordinary power. But this made Kira even more curious about the people behind this institute.

Hearing Jellal's words, Kira couldn't help but fell into deep thought: "Did the Magic Guild exist before the emergence of the Magic Guild? It must be at least a hundred years ago, right?"

At this moment, a trembling voice sounded at an inappropriate time: "Isn't it?! It sounds very dangerous. Why don't we go?"

Kira glanced at Korano who was about to retreat and said: "Huh? What nonsense are you talking about?! How could you not go in and find out what's going on when you're already here? You are also a member of the 'Six Demon Generals' after all. Why don’t you have any sense of adventure?”

Korano pouted angrily and said, "Having a spirit of adventure has nothing to do with being a 'Six Demon General', right?"

Kira pretended not to hear, and continued to sigh: "What's going on with the magicians now? Are they just good at complaining? Sorano, you have to be more confident! How can such a degree of danger be so rare? "

Hearing Kira's words, Korano immediately put his hands on his hips, pretending to be a delicate young lady, and sneered: "Confidence? What confidence do I rely on? Those three star spirit keys that you took away?"

Good guy, this girl is still thinking about the key!

Before yesterday, Korano was still a member of the Dark Guild, and Kira and she were enemies, so there was no psychological burden in taking Korano's key away.

Now that he has accepted her as his subordinate, it stands to reason that Kira should return the favor, but Kira did not do so. Not only did he sell the three keys to Lucy, but he also did not make any compensation to Korano.

In his previous life, Kira had been bullied by a black-hearted boss, so he swore that if he had a chance to do business, he must be a conscientious boss!

Pay enough wages and subsidies to employees. Even if you have to use their labor force, you have to let them gain something. At least make them feel that they are with the right person!

But how can any boss directly take away the combat weapons of his subordinates and exploit the assets of his employees in this way like now? So Kira still feels a little indebted to Sora in her heart.

But this little feeling of debt was quickly forgotten by him.

‘I rescued you from the prison of the Senate! Besides, it's not that we don't want to teach Yukino new magic, it's just that learning magic takes a lot of time. It's only been one night, how can we learn a new magic in such a short time? As the saying goes, haste makes waste, this kind of thing should be done slowly! ’

Thinking of this, Kira said tentatively: "Then what...I think girls don't need to rely on external things for their self-confidence! With your appearance and figure, you can go to Magic Weekly to be a model and take photos, and your popularity will definitely be hot! Oh... ...Don’t think too much, I’m talking about serious portraits!”

Korano was stunned for a long time after hearing the words, and thought for a long time before realizing what Kira meant. He immediately got angry and scolded Kira: "I'm not talking about that kind of confidence!! Can you still have a good conversation?! !”

Kira still pretended not to hear, and kept the airship away, heading deeper into the valley, and the rest of the people followed.

Any dangerous retreat is just a joke. They have been active in the dark guild for many years, and they are in a lawless age. Even if they dare to break into the kingdom's prison, how can they be afraid of this mere research institute in front of them.

Besides, with Kira and Jellal, two monsters with strength in the Holy Ten, and Urrutia, who defeated Brian with one move, several people felt that this trip was still very safe.

This valley is very large, surrounded by high mountains, with low terrain and overgrown vegetation, comparable to Demisor Magic Academy. The difference is that the valley in the college is full of things, and nearly half of it is the college, but here there are only towering trees as far as the eye can see.

When they looked down from the airship before, they couldn't see the situation in the valley at all. They could only get off the airship and explore step by step. However, the deeper they go, the more surprised they become, because every minute, the "tallest tree in the world" in their minds is refreshed.

"The trees here are so tall! How many years does it take for them to grow like this!"

Sawyer's sudden sigh opened up a new topic.

Beside him, Richard continued: "Indeed, I have never seen such a tall tree!"

Korano rubbed his long, snow-white legs, and while complaining about the difficult terrain here, he said, "It always feels like the deeper you go, the taller these trees will be!"

"It's not that the trees are getting taller, but that our position is getting lower and lower!" Eric, who was walking at the end of the team, shook his head and said loudly, "Didn't you notice? We have actually been going downhill. !”

As he spoke, the poisonous snake that had been entangled around him, Chuberios, also hissed.

"Downhill?" An Ye recalled it carefully, then took out the pendant and found that there was indeed a slight slope between the pendant and the ground, so he frowned and said, "It seems to be the case, this valley is really strange!"

Korano said suspiciously: "What's so weird? It's not impossible for such a terrain to appear!"

"No, the strange thing is not the terrain, but these trees!" Eric turned around and explained, "Generally speaking, the energy of the plant itself has a constant standard. The farther away from the roots, the weaker the plant's ability to transport nutrients. , that is to say, under the same conditions, only one can be chosen: tall or lush."

"To put it simply, they either grow tall with sparse branches and leaves, or they grow short with lush branches and leaves. But these trees in front of you have both. Isn't it strange?"

A few semi-literate people who had not read anything since they were young were stunned for a moment, and nodded in understanding.

Eric continued: "Of course there are exceptions, but they are only a few, and they are all in places with sufficient land nutrition! But according to the location of this valley, it is simply not enough to support so many trees at the same time!"

"so what?"

Eric smiled confidently: "I think there must be something special here to make them look like this! If nothing else, it's the work of that institute!"

"Eh?! Why do you say that?"

"Do you think these trees are growing so tall and dense just to cover up something?"

"..."

Sawyer said: "This statement is too ridiculous! Is this just your conjecture?"

"No! This is not just a simple guess! Because since entering here, the sounds I can hear have become very limited. This is a phenomenon where the magic is interfered with!"

After speaking, Eric looked at the trio walking at the front and asked, "What do you think?"

Kira rolled her eyes at him: "What do you think? I squinted!"

Eric: "..."

What's wrong with this guy?

Kira said matter-of-factly: "You have said everything you can to show off, what do you want me to say? I said you usually look so smart, how could you make such a mistake? Do you know what it means? 'The rule of survival in the workplace is never to steal the spotlight from your boss'?!"

Everyone: "..."

Sawyer came closer to Eric and asked in a low voice: "Can't you hear the voice of the heart?"

Eric rubbed his brow and replied: "I can't hear his inner voice clearly now!"

Sawyer patted Eric on the shoulder and sighed: "Thank you for your hard work..."

"We are all brothers. We should make life easier for everyone in the future, that's right!"

It may be that they also became exploited, which made their friendship deeper.

Chuberrios: "Hiss..."
