Chapter 79 The Wizard of Fairy Tail is Too Responsible!
Chapter 79 The Wizard of Fairy Tail is Too Responsible!
”I don’t know how long that kind of day has passed, but today, a group of monsters suddenly attacked me.
Then there appeared a terrible monster with fire all over its body, just like – just like a fire dragon! I tried my best to escape, but I couldn’t escape. In the end, I was blocked by them. It seemed that something clamped me, and I didn’t know anything.
But I seemed to hear someone say that Claudia was still waiting for me at home…
When I woke up again, I was here. I guess I was saved by my benefactors.”
No, I was beaten by my benefactors.
Claudia looked up at Natsu, and little stars almost appeared in her eyes.
Natsu gave her a bright smile.
Rod looked at him, no, you beat up someone’s father and you are still so proud? Oh, I participated too, that’s fine.
Rhodes briefly explained what happened to Chita and asked a few more questions.
Then he told him to remember to learn the receiving magic systematically after his injury healed, and not to use it indiscriminately before he completely mastered the ‘Soul of the Beast King’.
He and Natsu left the room and stopped disturbing the family reunion.
“In the end, I still don’t understand how his receiving magic can last for eight days.”
“Of course it’s because of the desire to protect the village and the longing for his family!” Natsu’s answer was quite idealistic.
“I prefer to believe that it’s because of the first awakening, the magic power is out of control, and then during the transformation, he drank mountain spring water and ate wild beast meat to replenish energy.”
Happi agreed: “Love! Mira seemed to have a situation where her arm couldn’t be transformed back before she came to the guild.”
“Hurry~” Poro said he didn’t understand, but Habby was right.
“How could it be because of that reason? It must be for the village and family that he persisted for so long!” Natsu insisted.
Maybe there is such a possibility. The president said that magic is the power of the heart. If a certain belief in the heart is strong enough, it may really cause miracles.
Rod suddenly asked: “Naz, do you think receiving magic is easy to learn?”
”How should I know? Why do you ask this?”
”Because it is strong, you see that after Chita mastered receiving magic, he became so strong all of a sudden.
Didn’t Mira also become an S-class wizard by receiving magic…”
Rod was moved. After an ordinary person received the soul of the beast king, he was beaten by Natsu and the monsters for so long but didn’t die.
Not to mention the increase in strength, just based on the strong defense and vitality…Rod felt safe when he saw it.
”You will know about that kind of thing when you go back and try it.” Natsu said, “I think your monsters are also very strong.”
”That’s right.” Rod had read the introduction of receiving magic before, and remembered that the risk of this kind of magic is that it may lose control after receiving too powerful targets.
It is because of this risk and the trouble of finding a suitable receiving target that it is not listed as the first option.
But after seeing Qita’s changes, he was very tempted.
And he also had a bold idea – what would happen if he received wild monsters? The usual term for receiving magic is ‘receiving the soul of xx’, but the definition given by the magic world is magic that takes away the body.
Generally speaking, the received target can be regarded as dead, and receiving wild monsters means killing them.
But Rhodes has never seen wild monsters really die, maybe he can find a bug?
And there are also cases where people who use receiving magic actively or passively abandon the targets they have received…
The wild monsters are obedient and can be received and released at any time…
It seems worth a try? …
Due to the doubts about the progress of the current mission, Rhodes and his team had to stay in the village temporarily. On the one hand, he had to see if there would be a large number of wild beasts coming down the mountain to attack the village; on the other hand, he had to pay attention to Qita’s situation to prevent his magic from getting out of control and hurting people.
Qita was quite happy these days.
Because he not only survived and reunited with his family, but also mastered the power that could be used to protect the village in the future.
Seeing his excitement, Rhodes had to repeatedly emphasize to him the danger of losing control of magic.
Fortunately, after experiencing the life-and-death crisis, Qita valued his family more and promised that he would take magic seriously after his injury healed and would never use it indiscriminately.
Obviously, he also knew what the consequences would be if he lost control in the village.
Today was the day when Rhodes and his team brought Qita back.The third day after the tower.
These days, Rhodes often sent river crabs to the mountain to investigate. After the beast king disappeared, the beasts were quiet for a day and began to fight for territory again.
At present, the situation on the mountain has been relatively stable, and because the number of beasts has decreased a lot, carnivorous animals have enough food and have no intention of going down the mountain.
Yesterday, Rhodes also took Natsu up the mountain to deal with the large beasts that ordinary people could not handle.
The rest, as long as the hunters use their brains and dig traps, they can basically deal with them.
Today, the villagers have decided to go out to harvest crops. Rhodes went out to be a bodyguard just in case.
Fortunately, it was calm and their mission was completed here.
In the evening, the village chief organized the villagers to hold a harvest celebration in advance, mainly to thank and entertain the wizards of Fairy Tail.
The villagers lit a bonfire, cheered and danced, drank and sang.
Natsu and Happy had already mixed in. Natsu was holding a torch and eating fire and spitting fire, attracting almost all the children and young people in the village.
Worm was biting something in his mouth and jumping around the campfire. Now he was not too hot.
Rod sat quietly on the periphery, drinking wine and eating meat.
Before crossing, he could be called “lazy and ignorant”, so it was hard for him to understand the joy of farmers when they harvested.
Is it the same as when drawing cards? Is it the same as getting paid? Or is it the same as receiving an admission letter?
“Mr. Rhodes.”
”Village Chief.” Rhodes stood up and helped the old man. “Is Brother Chita better?”
”Still the same. The doctor said it will take at least two or three months to fully recover.”
The village chief looked at the celebrating villagers beside Rhodes. “Mr. Rhodes think they are too noisy?”
”No, it’s far from noisy.” Rhodes thought of the tavern in the guild. “I just paid a little attention to the situation around the village.”
The village chief was stunned: “Village… around?”
”Well, it would be a big disappointment if the celebration was disturbed by wild beasts, so I just kept an eye on it and tried to eliminate this possibility.”
”Ah, this, this is really, you…” The village chief didn’t know what to say for a while, “… You think too much.”
In fact, the day after Chita was brought back, Panther had already asked them for the task list to sign.
But Rod said that we can’t be so careless and insisted on observing for a few more days. By the way, he also went to the mountain to deal with some difficult big guys.
The wizards of Fairy Tail are really dedicated to their duties.
Pansel was filled with emotion. If that stupid son at home was one tenth as cautious as Mr. Rod…
He would retire now and let his son be the village chief.
