Chapter 44 It’s used anyway
Rhodes was assigned the task of searching for Volian’s trace by Erza.
Mira had to stay behind. After finding out the truth, she would be responsible for comforting the nearby residents. In the worst case, she would guide the civilians to take refuge.
At Erza’s command, the guild members took quick action and spared no effort to do what they could.
This was the first time that Rhodes saw the guild running at high speed.
This guild that quarreled and fought every day had such strong cohesion.
”Respond to my call, Shadow Wolf!” Rhodes was infected by this atmosphere and summoned six wolves in one breath.
In the Summoner’s Rift, there are two groups of Shadow Wolves, a total of six.
“Erza, they have a strong sense of smell. If there is something that Volian used, they should be able to find it quickly.
If anyone needs to hurry, I still have swift crabs.”
Nabu said, “I know where Volian’s home is. Send a few of them to follow me!”
Mira also said, “There may be something Volian left behind in the guild. I’ll go and look for it.”
”You’re so helpful. I thought Natsu wasn’t here and couldn’t track it by smell.” Erza said, “That’s it. Let’s split up.”
”Okay.” Rhodes sent a group of shadow wolves to follow Nabu, leaving a group with Mira to look for things in the guild.
”It’s so high, so scary, help!”
The people in charge of the search paused and narrowed the search range to a place with relatively high terrain.
On the one hand, Rhodes was worried about Volian’s safety, and on the other hand, he was relieved that he could help.
But this relief completely disappeared in a few minutes.
The other companions also put aside their worries and even wanted to beat up Volian.
Because…
”We’re saved! We’re finally off that damn suspension bridge. We’ll never date at such a high place again!”
”Oh no! Could it be that my ‘telepathy’ has always been…”
Volian’s voice stopped abruptly.
There was a chorus of curses inside and outside the guild.
”Volian!”
”Are you kidding us, you bastard?”
”I won’t let you off!”
”Another Fairy Tail wizard? What are you doing this time?”
”I thought they were quiet for a while!”
”It’s too much to play a city-wide prank like this!”
Various voices rang out throughout Magnolia, and the condemnation of people on the street could be heard in the guild.
Erza covered her forehead with one hand. She had just been so majestic in commanding everyone to do things, but the result was like this.
Mira stopped rummaging around and smiled again: “Ah, ah, ah… it’s a big deal again this time.”
Rod was in a complicated mood: “So, this is Volian going on a date with his girlfriend on the suspension bridge, and then because of fear, his magic went out of control, and the whole city heard his voice?”
Erza nodded: “Ah, that guy seems to have a serious fear of heights.”
”…” This matter was so absurd that Rod couldn’t believe it. “Because this kind of thing affects the whole city, won’t our guild be demolished by the residents?”
” No, no.” Mira waved her hand, “This kind of thing is not uncommon. There is an even more exaggerated uncle in the guild. Once he comes back, the whole city will be turned upside down.”
”But you still have to apologize and strive for everyone’s understanding. I’ll go find him now.” Erza’s eyes became sharp, “Rod, Swift Crab.”
”Ah, okay.” Rhodes summoned the river crab, “It’s similar to riding a horse, using the tentacles as reins.”
”I know.” Erza jumped on the crab’s back, threw the “reins”, and the river crab carried her out of the guild gate quickly.
Rhodes thought about Erza’s scary eyes just now: “Will Volian be chopped to death by her?”
Mira said: “He shouldn’t be chopped to death.”
So he will be chopped? Rhodes found that his common language had improved again, and he could easily understand the meaning of Mira’s words. Besides, if something like this happened, even if he was not chopped to death by Erza, he would be killed, right?
Rhode imagined himself crying in front of everyone in the city because of his fear of heights…
How can I go out if Taishe is dead!
Out of concern, Rhode decided to connect to the river crab’s vision and check on Volian’s condition.
The river crab’s vision came into his mind, and the scenery in front of him quickly retreated. It was obvious that Erza was driving the river crab at full speed.Go forward.
A second later, Rhode took the initiative to cut off the visual connection.
The perspective of the river crab is relatively wide. It’s okay if I didn’t think of it just now. If I continue to watch… it’s a bit rude.
Be on your own, Wallian.
…
The ‘city-wide prank’ incident caused a very bad impact.
On the day of the incident, Erza and Mira came forward and took Wallian to explain and apologize to many citizens. After the president came back, he personally went to the city hall.
However, both the mayor and the citizens were very tolerant of this matter.
‘It’s just a shouting in the hearts of the people of the city, not destroying the entire city. ’
According to the gossip spread by non-Mira, this is what the mayor said when he met with the president.
After the citizens complained for a few days, this matter became a joke.
‘Do you know that the wizard of Fairy Tail a few days ago…’
The citizens had more things to talk about after dinner, and this guild that liked to make trouble had a bad record.
Even Brother Goodman couldn’t help asking Rhode what kind of magic that day was, and what kind of person that Volian was.
The matter was barely resolved at this point.
However, Volian had not appeared in the guild for quite a long time since then.
When he had no money and had to take a task, he would hide in a corner outside the guild and whisper to Mira.
Mira would carefully select tasks suitable for Volian, and then find a way to send the task list out.
Well, this is what Mira told Rhode.
Because the person responsible for sending the task list was Rhode’s Shadow Wolf.
A few days ago, Erza used the ‘fast speed’ characteristic of the river crab to catch Volian.
Now the characteristics of Shadow Wolf’s ‘good at stealth’ and ‘sensitive sense of smell’ were used to find Volian and secretly deliver the task list to him.
”Originally, I wanted them to help rescue Volian, but now it’s gone.” Rhode shook his head gently. No matter how it was used, it was used anyway.
…
Since the interim goal of shortening the magic chanting has made a breakthrough, Rhode has more time to read the magic encyclopedia recently.
He is choosing the magic that suits his ‘minor’.
Of course, for the sake of safety, he still needs to consult the president before starting to practice to see if there is any danger.
”Most magic will not be dangerous as long as it is practiced step by step and there is no problem with ‘compatibility’.”
The president said so.
The so-called compatibility is easy to understand. It is probably a talent suitable for a certain magic. It often determines the entry threshold of a magic and its future height.
As for how to confirm the affinity, generally speaking, the one who can awaken on his own is the most suitable.
For example, Erza suddenly mastered magic in a critical moment when she was young.
For those who cannot awaken on their own, they can only choose the magic they are interested in and try to get started quickly.
Rod has already selected several targets of interest.
The incident of Volian was not drawn in the feature film, but it was mentioned in the setting. I guess old fans of Fairy Tail don’t know much about it. (End of this chapter)
