The magic merchant who mingled with Fairy Tail

Wendy only lost to Urrutia in this move, but she didn't fall down yet.

The assessment rule for this level is that candidates can advance as long as they last until sunset. Kira still has confidence in her strength. Besides, Urrutia also takes good care of this little girl and does not show any seriousness from beginning to end.

Compared to using all her strength to eliminate Wendy, this fighting method of relying on time afterimages to attack while hiding herself is more like Urrutia training her combat intuition.

Indeed, as both the first-generation dragon slayers, Wendy's abilities in this area are far inferior to those of Natsu and Gajeel.

What Kira didn't know was that in addition to admiring Wendy, there was also a relationship with Melty.

Because Melty is one of Wendy's few friends of the same age, Urrutia, as the former's guardian like a sister and a mother, naturally has to take more care of the latter. In other words, Urrutia had no intention of letting Wendy stop here from the beginning.

As for Gray? Excuse me! Boys should practice more.

Bang bang bang... bang bang bang... bang bang bang...

At this time, Gray was practicing with Timaria. From time to time, the two used magic to fight each other, or used ice swords and daggers to cut each other. They struck without mercy, leaving several afterimages in the air with each move.

Gray's swordsmanship is only so-so. The 'Ice Demon Sword' and 'Ice Holy Sword' basically rely on strength and the stability and coldness of the ice shape during the battle. There is not much skill to speak of; while Timaria has ' The reputation of a female knight who gallops on the battlefield is basically gained by suspending time. Their melee combat abilities are not as strong as Erza's.

Fortunately, their strength is very similar, so the visual effect of the fight is pretty good.

Suddenly, an inexplicable telepathy came to his mind. Gray's hair suddenly became cold. His hand movement slowed down a beat at the same time. Timaria spotted the flaw and kicked him several meters away. He slid directly on the ice for several meters. , didn't stop until it smashed a piece of ice grass.

"What's wrong?" Timaria stopped and looked curiously at Gray, who was like a rag on the floor.

Gray shook his head and stood up, confused in his mind: What was going on with this inexplicable malice? It seems to be exactly the same as the feeling of being tricked by Kira before!

He raised his head and looked around, and found that except for Juvia, who was standing on the edge of the battlefield, paying attention to the fighting all the time, and looking anxious at this time, the other people had long since disappeared.

What about the Kira people? Wendy and Urrutia are also missing...

Is Kira harming me? No, that's not right! He has no reason to attack me at this level! But he doesn’t seem to need to look at the time and place to do this kind of thing...

"No, it's nothing!"

Regardless of whether it's Kira or anyone else, he'd better resolve the battle in front of him quickly!

Gray shook his head and once again focused on Timaria in front of him.

…

At the highest peak of the examination room, more than a dozen people gathered here, either training, playing, or having meetings, each busy with their own affairs.

Mabius stood on the tallest big rock, holding a special telescope and looking into the distance. From her condescending position, and with her extraordinary sense of magic power, she could basically have a panoramic view of every battlefield.

Precito and Makarov were nearby, discussing how the third level should be held.

In this assessment, each candidate is asked to bring a supporter after consideration by the three of them. The original intention is to let these supporters hone the candidates, just like in previous years, the S-level magicians in the guild were asked to examine the S-level Like the candidates, this group of brats can feel for themselves how big the world is and how powerful the magicians outside are.

The development of the situation was not far different from what they thought. Everyone has made considerable progress, even the S-class brats.

"Ebagarin and Felide were both eliminated and exposed, Juvia had nothing to do, Natsu and Gajeel were still undecided, Wendy was temporarily at a disadvantage, and Gray was in an anxious situation."

"It's pretty much what I expected!"

Once again, his wisdom and calculation ability were confirmed. Mabius felt very proud. His petite and delicate face smiled brightly, like a pure white angel.

Ogast nodded fondly, but in the end he did not say words such as "You are awesome" or "Well done", because that would make him feel that this girl was not his mother, but his granddaughter.

But he still answered Mavis's words very cooperatively and asked pretending to be curious: "There are still several hours until sunset. I wonder how many people will be left by then?"

"Well... you'll know when the time comes." Mavis smiled and did not answer directly.

She has now learned not to pretend to be a prophet in front of others easily, because it turns out that there are too many things in the world that cannot be calculated. Even if she is quite confident in herself, she does not want to experience the embarrassment of being slapped in the face.

There was a hint of fatigue in Makarov's voice: "It looks like this game won't eliminate many people. Do you have any good suggestions for the next level?"

"Wouldn't it be nice to let them draw lots and fight?"

Precito squinted his remaining left eye, acting as if the matter had nothing to do with him, "Being able to reach that point has proven their strength."

The wind blowing from the peak blew up his white hair and white beard. Even though he was sitting cross-legged on the ground, he still did not lose his magnanimity.

A fight?

Makarov shook his head silently. It would be great if this was a problem that could be solved in one fight!

Now we are selecting the S-class magicians of the guild. It is a very important assessment. It is not some kind of magic tournament. It cannot just be based on strength!

The questions asked by Mavis and Precito in the first two levels are very good. At least they test the candidates' strength, intelligence, luck, etc. It would be unavoidable if they just have to play one game when it is their turn. It’s too untechnical! It will appear that the contemporary president of the country is far inferior to the first and second generations! ——Although this is actually the case...

Based on the personalities of those little guys, they would definitely like a draw or a melee between everyone, right?

Thinking of this, Makarov couldn't help but frowned: "Let's think about it again..."

Sensing the worry of the person in front of him, Precito suddenly said: "You are getting old too, Makarov! After this time, do you want to consider stepping down from the position of president?"

It has been 49 years since Prechto stepped down and Makarov took over as the third generation president of Fairy Tail. Next year will be the 50th year and the 100th anniversary of the founding of the guild. Makarov will also be there. Entering the age of 90 at that time is indeed a good opportunity for the replacement of the old with the new!

Makarov suddenly realized something: ‘Have I been in office for so long? It’s almost the same time as the previous two generations combined…’

"Resigning? It doesn't seem impossible!" Makarov murmured softly. This time he really took the idea of ​​resigning as president to his heart.

Whether it was Mavis, the first-generation president who was enjoying the family relationship between mother and son, or Precito, the second-generation president who was in a state of health, they all made this little old man envious.

You have been busy for most of your life, so it’s time to enjoy yourself, right?

Can! Decided! I will retire next year!

…

Above the woods, Kira was flying rapidly in one direction with her wings spread, leaving behind a few familiar complaints as she passed: "This guy Disper... seems to have been heading straight towards Natsu and Ga from the beginning. If you rush in the direction of Giroud, isn't that cheating?"

At this time, Kira had already left the center of the examination room and hurried to the battlefield where Natsu and Gajeel were fighting. The two of them had been fighting for a while. Judging from the changes and stability of their magic power, it was basically a deadlock. The reason why Kira rushed there in such a hurry was because Disper was almost there.

Disper has no magic power, and Kira's ordinary method of sensing magic power does not apply to him, but they have been together for so long, and they are in the same position, so they can still locate themselves by breath.

It's just that Kira is not sensing all the time, which gives the other party a chance to sneak into Yinping.

Well, the truth is that Kira was negligent.

"Wait for me, Natsu!!"
