Chapter 523: The Successor of the Guild Master (Second Update)
"This Magic!"
Feeling the warm light enveloping the entire city, including himself, Jerry's eyes widened in surprise.
As a master of several world Magics, Jerry had a solid understanding of almost all the Magics that appeared in this world.
Though the forms of manifestation were different, the principles were often the same.
Like elemental Magics, time and Spatial Magics, and so on.
So, as long as he knew a small part of what was different, he could quickly grasp the Magic.
For example, the Knight Armament that Erza taught him, he could use it almost as well as she could. The Reception Magic he learned from Mira, he had also mastered it to a considerable degree.
However, the large-scale light Magic, Fairy Law, that Makarov just cast, felt very different to him.
He could understand the principles of the light Magic it contained, but the main components of this Magic seemed to be more than just light Magic. There was a deeper, unseen Magic that he had never encountered before.
And the results confirmed this.
The immense Magic light generated by Fairy Law spread throughout the city and then dissipated. Everyone discovered that all the Mages from Phantom Lord, including the powerful Ten Wizard Saint, Jose, were knocked out.
But all the Mages from Fairy Tail, as well as the ordinary residents who had not yet evacuated, were completely unharmed.
In other words, Makarov's Fairy Law had instantly and precisely eliminated all the Mages from Phantom Lord without harming anyone else.
This was truly terrifying.
No matter how strong a Mage's control, when casting a Magic, it was possible to manipulate it to attack enemies while avoiding allies. However, it was impossible to hit enemies without harming allies in the same range after the Magic took effect.
For example, if I cast a large Fireball, I can try to avoid my allies, but I can't have it burn only the enemies and not my allies when it hits both.
Moreover, this was not just one person, but an entire city.
Another point was that Jose, a Ten Wizard Saint, was instantly brought to his knees the moment the light enveloped him, which was also very strange.
With Jerry's strength, he could defeat Jose, but it would be through overwhelming power, visible and tangible, not this kind of silent and mysterious resolution.
It was as if he had been directly sanctioned by some rule.
So, if he were the enemy, would Makarov's Fairy Law also silently and mysteriously resolve him?
"This Magic is interesting!"
Seeing the effects of Fairy Law, Jerry's interest was immediately piqued. He felt that if he could learn this Magic, it might significantly boost his strength.
Not like the Golden Armor or Demon Transformation, which were used as last-resort life-saving measures, but a decisive move that could turn the tide of a major battle.
Therefore, he was determined to learn this Magic!
After instantly eliminating all the Mages from Phantom Lord, Makarov's body wavered slightly, and then he immediately laughed heartily and shouted to everyone:
"This time, it's a victory for Fairy Tail!"
"Victory!"
At that moment, all the Fairy Tail mages, whether injured or not, cheered with joy.
From today on, Fairy Tail would be the undisputed number one mage guild in the kingdom!
"Any injured comrades, come over and line up for treatment, and then we can return!"
At that moment, Jerry also descended from the sky and loudly called out to the jubilant mages.
Two minutes later, as Jerry was still treating the injured Fairy Tail mages, a massive Magic circle appeared in the sky above the city.
However, this was not an attack Magic circle, but the Council's Large Teleportation Magic Circle that he had seen once before.
Sure enough, after the Magic circle disappeared, countless Rune Knights in uniform, holding wands, appeared on the mountaintop, led by a short, old councilor.
They quickly surrounded the entire mountaintop, including all the mages from Phantom Lord and Fairy Tail.
"This is troublesome. I can't be arrested and locked up, can I?"
Makarov's face fell when he saw the councilors appear, and the good mood from the guild battle victory vanished instantly.
However, when he recognized the leading councilor, his face lit up again.
"Yajima, I didn't expect it to be you!"
"Ah, Makarov, you're getting so old, can't you stop acting recklessly? Because of this guild battle, the Council has been in an uproar. Makao and Ooba have been insisting on dissolving your guild."
Yajima, who was a bit older and similarly short and hunched, shook his head helplessly.
Upon hearing that the Council wanted to dissolve their guild, Makarov immediately pulled Yajima aside and explained the entire situation.
After listening, Yajima sighed in relief and waved his hand, ordering the Rune Knights to arrest all the Phantom Lord mages.
"If that's the case, the problem shouldn't be too big."
"You've always been the one to worry!"
Makarov patted Yajima's shoulder. He knew that Yajima must have feared that other councilors would come and directly sanction Fairy Tail, so he had vied for this leadership role.
Yajima shook his head, still looking concerned at Makarov.
"We're old friends, and even though I've left the guild, I was once part of it. I'll do my best to speak up for the guild at the Council.
But Makarov, your body can't handle that Magic anymore. If you keep using it, something will go wrong. It's time to retire."
It turned out that Yajima had once been a member of Fairy Tail, part of the strongest team with Makarov, Gildarts, Bob, and Porlyusica.
Later, Makarov took over as the guild master, Yajima, tired of fighting, joined the Council, and Porlyusica retired to the forest east of the guild.
Roby was captured and taken to the Tower of Paradise, becoming Erza's Magic mentor and eventually dying to protect her.
Gildarts, Bob, and Roby chose to leave Fairy Tail and explore the world. Gildarts and Bob are now the guild masters of the famous Quatro Cerberus and Blue Pegasus guilds.
So, apart from the Phantom Lord, most of the top-ranked guilds in the country have deep ties to Fairy Tail.
Hearing his friend Yajima's words, Makarov fell into deep thought.
Yes, he was already eighty-eight this year, and it was time to choose a suitable successor.
But, who should it be?
