Chapter 82 The Strongest Newcomer is Busy
”President.” Mira handed over a towel.
Makarov waved his hand: “No need, it’s already been wiped clean.”
Rod tugged at his clothes: “Are you polite?”
Makarov was very happy that he didn’t have to write a second apology: “Hahaha, don’t care about this little thing.”
Mira reminded: “But President, there are words on your face.”
”Yes.” Rod didn’t notice it just now, and only saw it now, and read it with effort, “Ask, apology?”
The words are reversed and not easy to recognize.
“Ah, I accidentally fell asleep while writing a self-criticism!” Makarov was not embarrassed at all, and naturally took the towel to wipe his face.
”By the way, Rod, come with me, the antidote Polyusica is ready.”
”Okay!” Rod was very happy. With the antidote, he could summon the Magic Swamp Frog with peace of mind, and the safety factor was increased again.
Of course, he had to go home to change clothes before going.
On the way back, Rod bought a copy of “Sosara”.
He was not famous enough, and he didn’t even have a sample issue, unlike Mira, who always sent it to his home.
The 15th anniversary special issue did not issue a supplement, but was a little thicker than usual. The cover did not have a photo of the wizard, but a carefully designed congratulatory picture.
Rod flipped through it, and Mira and Jenny, who participated in the performance, had separate pages.
And “Fairy Tail’s Strongest Newcomer” only occupied a column in the far back corner.
Moreover, only the group photo of him and Hexie was posted, no individual photo.
”From this angle, Hexie is indeed domineering. Mr. Rapper Ter is a talent in taking photos.”
There were not many distortions and changes in the content of the interview, only a few words were added to express the hope that Rhode would be active in the future.
Because it was just afternoon, Goodman hadn’t closed the stall yet: “Isn’t this Rhode? Haven’t seen him for a few days?”
”Brother Goodman, there was a task a few days ago, which took a little time.”
”Oh~ Have you finally become a formal wizard who can stand on your own? Awesome!”
Goodman has always heard Rhode say that he is an apprentice wizard.
”Haha, count it as half.”
Because he may have to practice hard for a while next.
The house is still the same, but it has a strange smell because it hasn’t been ventilated for a few days. I don’t know if it’s a psychological effect.
Rhodes opened the window, watered a few potted plants, came back and punched the sandbags twice, and then went to change clothes.
The house needs to be cleaned up, and there will be a lot of work to do in the evening.
…
Walking on the street with Makarov is quite eye-catching. He is one of the ten most outstanding wizards in the entire continent and has a great reputation.
People who are not familiar with him have to add a respectful title such as “Your Excellency” when talking to him.
Of course, for the residents of Magnolia, Makarov is far more friendly than majestic.
After all, he was as noisy as Natsu when he was young.
Because of the president’s influence, the residents are also quite friendly to him. In fact, if he rides a river crab, it may become the president who benefits from him.
After leaving the town, Rhode hesitated for a long time and finally asked: “President, is there any magic that can revive people?”
Makarov turned his head and stared at him: “Why do you ask such a thing?”
”I heard about Lisanna a few days ago. Mira and Elfman were both hit hard by this incident. I think if there is a magic that can revive Lisanna…”
It may not be appropriate to use this word to describe it as cutting off the fire from under the cauldron, but it is indeed a way to fundamentally eliminate the inner pain of Mira and Elfman. ”Don’t pursue that kind of thing!” Makarov’s tone was a little stern, “The weight of life is incomparable, and blaspheming life is a taboo!
Not only from a legal point of view, studying the magic of resurrecting the dead is also a taboo in itself. It will make you fall into an abyss of no return.”
Rhode rarely saw the president’s serious expression, so he nodded to indicate that he remembered.
But Makarov was still worried. Although Rhodes was steady, he had just entered the magic path and might not understand the seriousness of the problem. [Note ①]
Besides, a steady person might be more terrifying when he goes crazy.
Makarov said: “I have heard such a rumor that someone who lost a loved one kept studying the magic of resurrection and ended up touching the taboo of life.So that person was cursed by the god Anxelram, and everyone he loved would die. ”
”God?” Rhodes asked, “Does God exist?”
”Of course, Anxelram, the god who controls life and death, and Chronos, the god who controls time, are both recorded in the world.” The president said, “But no one knows what kind of existence they are, and as long as no one touches the taboo, they will not take the initiative to bring down miracles. ”
Rod frowned. It’s okay to have dragons and demons, but there are even gods. This world seems to be a bit complicated.
But according to the general routine, gods should be some powerful creatures, right? It’s useless to think about this. Anyway, you can’t afford to offend them.
Listening to the president’s words, Rod felt that his magic knowledge was not enough. He had to continue reading.
Seeing that Rod listened, Makarov breathed a sigh of relief and brought the topic back:
”Lisanna’s matter… That was her own choice. She stood in front of her sister and took the blow.
She protected Mira and awakened the crazy Elfman. Between life and family, she chose to protect her family.
I am sad for the death of my child, and I am proud of Lisanna. She is a child that I am proud of.
If possible, I am willing to exchange with her, but I will never study forbidden magic, because it will not only bring danger to myself, but also bring disaster to the guild. ”
Just after saying that the weight of life is incomparable, now you are willing to use your life to exchange for others? Rhodes asked himself, who is he willing to risk his life for now?
No, before considering risking his life, what should be considered at this stage is to become stronger. If the strength cannot keep up, there is no point in fighting for anything.
”President, I want to learn reception magic.”
”?”
This kid was just talking about resurrection magic, and now it has become reception magic. How did his thoughts turn here?
”Why do you suddenly want to learn this?”
”Because during this mission…”
After Rhodes explained the reason, Makarov said: “Are you worried about your own safety when summoning wild monsters to fight? In fact, there is no need for this.”
”Why?”
”Because the fastest way to solve this problem has been tried.” Makarov said, “Everyone has things they are good at and not good at. Isn’t it better to leave things that you are not good at to your companions? Teaming up with companions is the quickest way, faster than learning any magic. ”
”That’s true, but even companions can’t stick together 24 hours a day.” Rhodes said, “You must master some self-defense magic.”
”…” Makarov felt the difference between Rhodes’ and his thinking.
Why should I consider this? Even if I know self-defense magic, can anyone stay alert 24 hours a day?
Rhodes, this kid…
”Forget it, if you want to learn, you can give it a try, but…”
Makarov thought about Rhodes’ personality and asked, “You should also understand the risks of receiving magic, right?”
Rhodes nodded: “A little bit, I will look up more information before starting to practice, and I will never be reckless. ”
Makarov nodded with satisfaction. He was relieved about this. This was a good boy who wanted to ask him to watch over him and avoid risks when summoning Poro.
But he soon became entangled again. Is this personality good or bad? ① The Path of Magic: In Fairy Tail, the Path of Magic refers to the “path of magic”, not the “demon possession” in our martial arts and fairy tales
