Chapter 179 Newcomer Tono
Mira was very happy with Rhodes’ answer.
She put the letter away and said she would think about it.
As for the magazine, she put it on the counter. She remembered that Rhodes liked to read the news.
After the New Year, the guild resumed normal operation and Rhodes returned to normal training.
…
On the third day after that, a boy with glasses who looked young came to the guild.
He had a small round face, a flat head, and a big schoolbag on his back. He looked very well-behaved.
After he came in, he looked around and walked through the noisy tavern to the front desk.
Mira greeted him, “Hello, do you have a commission to issue?”
“No, my name is Tono, Tono Rabitz, I just turned 15 this year, and I use light magic.”
Tono introduced himself in an orderly manner, and then said, “I want to join the guild.”
“So that’s it, hello, I’m Mira Jane.” Mira said, “Please wait a moment, I’ll go find the president.”
“Please sit down.” After Mira left, Rhodes was responsible for receiving the newcomers. “My name is Rhodes. I joined the guild half a year ago. I am also a newcomer. Please don’t be constrained.”
”I know you. The strongest newcomer, right?” Tono said happily, “I have always been following the news of Fairy Tail.”
”Really? Haha, that news was written by the reporter. Maybe you will be the strongest newcomer if you come. Well, do you want something to drink?”
Rhodes felt that this kid always followed the news of Fairy Tail and still liked this place. It must be true love.
Tonno sat on the stool and said honestly: “Just plain water, thank you.”
Rhodes poured a glass of water for Tono, and the president and Mira came over.
Tonno’s joining process was as simple as Rhodes’s. The president simply asked a few basic questions and stamped him with the guild’s emblem.
This was the first time Rhodes witnessed a newcomer joining the guild. It felt… a little strange.
“Having witnessed the newcomer join, do I count myself as a senior wizard?”
Makarov glanced at him and said nothing.
Senior wizard? It’s just that the number of tasks has changed from the second to last to the third to last.
Mira is a good supporting actor: “So Rhode wants to try to guide the newcomer?”
This seems interesting. Rhode asked, “Can I?”
Just in case, Makarov asked, “What are you going to teach him?”
Rhode looked at Mira and smiled, “Just like when Mira led me, help him get familiar with the process from accepting tasks to meeting the client and then completing the tasks.”
Tonno was a little happy. It turned out that there would be a senior wizard to guide him when he joined the guild, and he was the strongest newcomer. He seemed very reliable.
Rhodes thought for a moment and added: “I can also pass on some personal experience, such as…”
”Okay, I have decided, let Tono be guided by Levi.” Makarov said decisively, “You just said you like history, right?”
”That’s right, but Senior Rhodes…”
Makarov said: “Don’t worry about him, he and you don’t get along well.”
Rhodes felt offended.
Mira smiled with her hands covering her mouth. Is the president afraid that the newcomers brought by Rhodes will run around with the Exploding Magic Crystal?
She patted Rhodes on the back to comfort him, and then said to Tono: “Come with me, I’ll take you to find Levi.”
Makarov said: “Don’t look at me like that, there may be a task for you in a few days.”
”Give it to me? What task is left for me?” Rhodes thought about it. It won’t be something about the Council again? That group of people is a bit tricky.
“It’s not certain yet. We have to wait for further information.” Makarov said, “In short, try not to go far these two days.”
”Okay.” Rhodes was a little unsure. Makarov knew his temper and comforted him, “Don’t worry, if you really want to go, I will help you find a reliable person to form a team.”
Rhodes was even more unsure. The president was helping him find teammates in advance. Doesn’t that mean that this mission is particularly troublesome? Makarov shook his head and left with his hands behind his back. He still had a review to write.
That idiot Natsu went out to catch a few thieves and demolished seven houses. Before he came back, the subpoena of the Council had arrived.
Headache.
When Mira came back, she saw Rhodes with a sad face.
”What’s wrong? Did the president say anything? ”
”No, but there may be a big trouble to be thrown to me.”
Mira smiled and said, “Because the president trusts you very much.”
”Trust me, but he won’t let me take the newcomer.”
”Well, well…” Mira didn’t know what to say. In fact, she thought it was not bad to hand over the newcomer to Rhode.
”Oh, let’s not talk about it.” Rhode asked, “Didn’t Rebecca go out to work? Why did the president ask Tono to follow her?”
”Rebecca just came back today. You were in the backyard so you didn’t see her.” Mira said, “Actually, they encountered a little accident during the mission. Now Jet is in the hospital and Troy is taking care of him.”
”So serious?” Rhode frowned, “What happened?”
Mira said with a little sympathy: “It seems that Jet wanted to show off, and then accidentally fell into the trap used by hunters to catch wild animals. As a result, Rebecca and Troy had to protect him while completing the work. ”
”…” It was difficult for Rhode to comment on this matter. This is what the saying goes, wanting to show off but ending up showing off.
”Shall I go to the hospital to see him?”
”It’s better not to go. Rebecca said Jet doesn’t want everyone to see him embarrassed.”
Mira said with a smile, “If you must go, remember to bring Lidas with you.”
”…” Your devilish nature is exposed, Miss Mira.
”By the way, how have you considered that matter?”
”I will go to the Sosara branch the day after tomorrow. The president hopes that I can restore the positive image of Fairy Tail a little bit. ”
Mira smiled. She knew that it was Natsu’s incident that made the president anxious, so she decided to do something.
Rod originally planned to go with Mira.
But he didn’t wait until the day after tomorrow. He was called over by the serious president the next morning.
Beside the president, besides Mira who looked worried, there was also… Erza.
Rod immediately felt something was wrong. Teaming up with Erza? Is it that serious?
Makarov said seriously: “This mission is a bit dangerous. If you think it’s difficult after listening to me, you can choose to refuse.”
Rod glanced at Erza and guessed: “S-level mission?”
Makarov shook his head: “It’s not enough to be directly rated as S-level, but if it’s not rated as S-level, it will be very difficult for others, and it may be life-threatening.”
Erza said: “It’s worth your seriousness. It must be an important mission. You tell me. ”
Rod nodded. He knew it was dangerous but he still wanted to find them. It must be the kind of thing that must be dealt with, right? Makarov said slowly: “A black magic cult that believes in the black magician Zeref appeared near the northern coast of the kingdom. It is called ‘Shadow of the Devil’.
They kidnapped children in nearby villages and towns, intending to use them as sacrifices to summon the demon Caniber in the Book of Zeref. This time the mission is to arrest the black magic cult and rescue the innocent children.
Because the enemy may have dangerous black magic such as bone crushing, blood transformation, and cursed death, and if their action of summoning demons succeeds, the danger of the mission may rise to S-level or above, so Erza is needed.
Because we have to fight and protect the children, I am worried that Erza will not have enough energy alone, so…Rod is the most suitable person. ”
Useless little details: Tono’s shoes, Macao’s vest, and Macao’s son Romeo’s vest all have an S logo on them, so they should be the same brand of clothing.
