Chapter 62 Why?
Chapter 62 Why?
The two wizards, Phantom, are much simpler than Rhode imagined.
They really don’t like the people of Fairy Tail, so they want to teach them a lesson. Since they don’t want to cause trouble in the capital, they specially ran to the wilderness to block the road.
Perhaps they also want to stand out or make merit in their guild.
But it doesn’t affect their simple motives, simple plans, and simple lies.
Rhode is not sure what the guild’s attitude is towards this kind of thing, so he has to seek Mira’s opinion on how to deal with these two people.
Mira thought for a moment: “We can only complain to the Council about this matter. After all, it is just a conflict between a few of us, and it has not risen to the level of a direct war between the guilds.
Even if we complain to the Council, we may be bitten back by the other party, and the Council’s attitude towards our guild…”
Rod understood what she meant. This kind of trivial matter can only be attributed to a fight between children.
If it is really exaggerated and alarmed the Council, both sides may be punished, and the presidents of both sides will write a self-criticism.
Since Fairy Tail is more capable of causing trouble, the president of our own guild may be scolded more severely.
“So the best way is to pretend that nothing happened. We just picked up two people who were attacked by wild beasts on the road?”
Mira nodded: “That’s about it. If you are still angry, you can beat them up at most.”
Rod looked at the two people:
There were marks on their waists from the mouthparts of the stone beetles, and wounds on their arms from the bites of the shadow wolves. I don’t know if they were broken.
Because they were dragged into the ground and dug out by the stone beetles, their bodies were covered with dust and looked miserable.
”Forget it. What’s the point of unilaterally beating people who have no ability to resist.” Rhodes said, “How long will it take for them to wake up?”
Mira said: “If no one comes to disturb them, the magic will be lifted in less than half an hour. When they wake up depends on their usual sleep quality.”
”Then let them sleep well here.” Rhodes said, “How about asking the coachman to bypass this place when we go back?”
There are no ferocious beasts near the main road. Rhodes hopes that they will encounter thieves and robbers passing by.
“Very bad.” Mira laughed, “I agree.”
She didn’t have any extra sympathy for the two people who wanted to teach her a lesson.
…
”Welcome back, Mira!”
It was already evening when they returned to the guild, and the guild was bustling.
Mira was warmly welcomed as soon as she entered the guild, while Rhodes was warmly interrogated.
The leaders were naturally Wakaba and Makao.
“You are so cunning, you actually went to Huadu alone with Mira! Damn, I’m so jealous!”
”It’s a mission, an escort mission.”
”I want to take such a mission too! Hey, you didn’t take the opportunity to do anything to Mira, right? For example, at night…”
”Of course not, the suite we live in has separate rooms.”
”Damn, it’s actually a suite! Duel!”
”…” Rhodes thought that a duel was not impossible. The two he met on the road were too weak, so it would be nice to practice with everyone.
“Elfman, come over and say a few words!”
”I just heard from my sister that Rod did a great job as a guard.” Elfman clenched his fist and bent his arm, “You are a real man!”
”Elfman betrayed!”
”What did you say? How can you put the word betrayal on a man!”
Originally, he was chasing Rod to ask about Mira, but in the end, the topic went off and they started fighting, leaving Rod aside.
Small scenes, I’m used to it.
”Rod, can you come over?”
The president, who was sitting cross-legged on the counter, waved to Rod, and Mira stood aside, as if she was going to get into work mode as soon as she came back.
”President.”
”Yeah.” The president nodded, “How do you feel about the mission?”
Rod thought for a while: “Overall, I’m happy.”
The president smiled with relief. The child who stayed at home every day finally felt the fun of going out. It’s great.
But Rhode changed his tone: “But it’s also quite dangerous. You can be spotted even when you’re just walking down the street. It’s very troublesome.”
The president’s smile disappeared. The annoying ghost came to cause trouble at this time. Why not just fight with them! Makarov was also aThe powder keg that exploded, but his temper has become more restrained as he gets older.
In addition, he has to take care of so many children, so he has to be more cautious in doing things.
If Mira and Rod came back with injuries today, Makarov would definitely bring the whole guild to their door without saying a word.
But the two were safe and sound.
Makarov felt that the matter was not that serious.
And according to Mira’s narration, it was the two guys who wanted to find trouble who suffered a lot, and in the end they didn’t even know who beat them up.
Rod did a good job, but his style of doing things was a little…
But as long as it is to protect himself and his companions, there is no problem.
The willingness to protect companions is the biggest plus point in Fairy Tail.
Makarov admired Rod more and more.
“Oh, Rhodes.” Mira suddenly remembered something, “Give me the letter of entrustment, and then the final process of the task.”
”Oh.” Rhodes put his backpack on the counter and opened it, taking out magic books and crystal balls from it.
Makarov’s face became darker and darker. Do I really admire this kid? ”Oh, President, I haven’t used these. I will send them back to the warehouse later.”
This kind of props does not need to be paid as long as they are not consumed. It is a small benefit for guild members.
But Makarov is now considering whether to charge a little rental fee to help Rhodes change his bad habits.
“Here.” Rhodes took out the letter of authorization, handed it out, and immediately took it back. He asked, “Should it be handed over to the client now, or to the president’s assistant?”
Mira laughed: “Now it’s the client, Mira Jane, who signed to confirm that Mr. Rhodes completed the task, and paid the task reward.”
Laki and the other two little sisters watched Rhodes and Mira complete the task’s finalization process like playing house, and smiled like an aunt.
Hehe, how come they become so tacit after going out once? I’ll have to interrogate Sister Mira later, hehe.
Mira took out the money from her wallet and handed it to Rhodes, and then took out the task record book to write down the time of task completion.
Rhodes felt a little hot holding the two big bills: “Can this really be counted as a mission, President?”
”Why not?” Makarov asked with a smile, “Mira, did Rhodes’ mission violate any rules?”
”No, President.” Mira showed the commission form and the record book, “All the processes were confirmed by me personally, and they are absolutely in line with the rules of the guild.”
”Then there is no problem, don’t worry.” Makarov jumped off the counter and left slowly.
He was going to investigate the ghost.
”Yes.” Rhodes felt their kindness, “Thank you.”
But it’s not good to just accept the money.
Rhodes thought about it and asked Mira: “How about treating you to a meal in a few days?”
Mira seemed to understand Rhodes’ concerns and nodded: “Okay, I’m looking forward to it.”
Oh~~~~~~ Laqi and the others looked at Rhodes with admiration. Why could this man invite Sister Mira out for dinner so naturally? And it was so easy to succeed! The world of Fairy Tail is different from ninjas and pirates. Generally speaking, there is still a set of laws, and wizards are not allowed to take other people’s lives easily.
For example, when the Council activated the magic spirit power, because of the possibility of harming civilians, several councilors argued endlessly, saying things like “our sins will be written into history.”
And the star spirit Leo indirectly caused the death of a scumbag woman, and was willing to use his life to atone for his sins.
No matter who it is, the weight of life is very heavy.
The world view is probably like this. I hope no one will ask me why the protagonist didn’t just kill those two people to silence them.
