Fairy Tail: I'm just an archaeologist

As we all know, the wizards of Fairy Tail have a bad habit to some extent, which is to occasionally cause a little bit of damage that is difficult to control.

This"little" destructive power can be as low as breaking tables, chairs and benches, and the upper limit is to accidentally destroy a port for the time being.

And if you break someone else's things, you have to pay compensation.

Since the second-generation president took over the position of president, Makarov has led the guild through more than fifty springs, summers, autumns and winters. Although the compensation money is not an astronomical figure, it has also emptied Makarov's small treasury.

After working diligently for a lifetime, in the end, all the pensions saved were used to fill the holes for the younger generations.

Although Makarov is willing to help the younger generations fill the holes, he still feels a little uncomfortable when he thinks that he can only eat lobsters, drink red wine, and barely maintain his retirement life in a big house in the future.

But now, seeing that Urrutia has restored the damaged wall with magic, Makarov only feels:

Our Fairy Tail is saved!

Although he didn't know what the girl's magic was, Makarov had already made up his mind to offer the best conditions to let the girl join his guild.

The only repairing entry washed out from a pile of destruction entries, the value of this can be imagined.

At this moment, in Makarov's eyes, Urrutia was like a white lotus that was unstained by mud, so holy, so noble.

Then, Makarov saw Bai Lianhua being pulled away by someone hand in hand.

Who is it! Dare to snatch someone under my nose!

Oh, it's Xia Zuo, that's okay.

Makarov remembered that Xia Zuo and Erza had told him after returning from the crusade against the six demons that new companions would join the guild in the next few days. I think it was Bai Lianhua and his group. Thinking of the other party's original identity, Makarov had to take it seriously. After all, it was the president of [Demon Cat Inn] who brought people to surrender, and he, as the president, should come forward in person to avoid poor hospitality.

Half an hour later.

All the new members who joined the guild were tattooed with the guild emblem of Fairy Tail.

Wendy and Melty's guild emblem is on their arms, Xia Lulu's guild emblem is on her back, Robinlu's emblem is on the back of her hand, and Jinana chose to tattoo the guild emblem on her calf.

"Hahaha! Brother Robinlu, you are really amazing. You have supported a guild all by yourself for the children."

"Hahahaha, it's not easy for you, brother Ma. It must have taken a lot of effort to maintain such a large guild."

Makarov and Robinlu, two short old men, drank wine arm in arm, and became good brothers. (Although there is a 400-year age difference between them, Makarov doesn't know. Xia Zuo only told Makarov that Robinlu used the thought body to establish a guild, and did not mention the relationship between Nirvana and Robinlu.)

Xia Zuo curled his lips,"Hey, I don't know who said he would entertain us personally, but it turned out to be just a simple drink. How stingy!"

"Huh?!"

Hearing Xia Zuo's sarcastic remarks, Makarov jumped up and slapped Xia Zuo,"Wine is the best thing that can promote friendship between men, apologize to the wine now! Bad boy!"

Xia Zuo sighed,"Ah... You've drunk so much in just half an hour... You're drunk and talking nonsense."

"You bastard! How dare you question my alcohol tolerance! Mira, give me another drink." Makarov knocked on the table.

However, Mira was possessed by the devil at this time, and she was just adding fuel to the fire,"Hey, hey, President, can you just have one drink? Xia Zuo must despise you in his heart, people who don't know would think that the dignified Fairy Tail President can't afford to drink."

"Then bring a bucket, one for me and brother Robinlu!"

Robinlu had no objection to Makarov's bravado. After all, he was made of energy and would not get drunk no matter how much he drank.

In this way, Makarov won face, and the guild's income from selling alcohol today also increased. It was a win-win situation.

Then what about Xia Zuo, the source of Makarov's bravado?

Xia Zuo said it was none of his business, so he complained that Makarov had used up all his skills by himself. Did Xia Zuo have anything to do with him from beginning to end?

"The president is really something. He is so old and still has to worry about the guild. Wouldn't it be better to retire early?"

Xia Zuo felt that Makarov had done enough. Now that Erza was the pillar of support to suppress the guild, Makarov might be able to take a good rest and relax.

"You little brat, it's rare that you still worry about an old man like me, hiccup~"

"Oh, President, you are not drunk yet."

""Hic~ Who do you think I am?"

Makarov was certainly not drunk. As a powerful wizard who had experienced countless battles in his life, how could alcohol knock him down? He was just intoxicated by the momentary happiness.

In fact, seeing the new generation of members emerging, Makarov wanted to abdicate and live out his retirement years ago. Unexpectedly, his designated successor took a big task and ran away, and is still wandering around outside.

But now, Makarov thinks that Xia Zuo and Erza are not bad as his successors, but they both have some shortcomings.

Xia Zuo's strength and mentality have met Makarov's requirements, but this kid is too... He rarely showed his strength, and he was unwilling to fight with his companions. Makarov was afraid that Xia Zuo would not be able to convince the others after becoming the president, especially his rebellious grandson.

Erza could control those who were making trouble in the guild, but now Erza's strength has not grown to the peak. If she took over as the president, it would only hinder Erza's growth. After all, the president has a lot of things to deal with.

Makarov sighed. It seemed that he had to hold on for a few more years so that the children could grow up freely.

Thinking of this, Makarov drank a gulp of wine. It was all the fault of the abominable Gildarts. Why did you challenge the century-long task for no reason?

"By the way, Xia Zuo, you asked Laxus to get you an S-rank commission, right? Go and get it done for me quickly."

Makarov glanced at Xia Zuo. He had always turned a blind eye to Xia Zuo's violation of the rules. As a wizard of Fairy Tail, who hasn't violated the rules?

Even Makarov himself, when he was young, caused a lot of headaches for his teacher, the second-generation president.

Xia Zuo scratched his head. If Makarov hadn't reminded him, Xia Zuo really forgot that he had accepted an S-rank mission.

Originally, Xia Zuo wanted to take his mother to the Demon Cat Inn to visit Ultear and others, and then Xia Zuo would solve the commission.

Unexpectedly, the Six Demon Generals and Nirvana incidents disrupted Xia Zuo's arrangements. After staying in the Demon Cat Inn for two days, he completely forgot about the commission.

Xia Zuo found the S-rank commission from his body:

【The reward for undoing the curse of Karna Island is 7 million J and a golden star spirit key. 】

Xia Zuo frowned slightly. Why did he take this task in the first place?

Oh, it was because Xia Zuo received a message from the Dark Guild's informant that someone intended to revive the dead Destruction Demon"Deliora" on Karna Island.

At the beginning, Xia Zuo wanted to collect"Deliora's" soul to fill the [Devil's Note], and accepted the S commission just because it happened to be on the way.

But now...

Xia Zuo's eyes swept over Gray, and then stopped at Urrutia who was talking and laughing with Mira and Erza.

Should we help those people revive"Deliora" and let Urrutia and Gray personally avenge their mother and master?

Ten years ago, the"Holy Ten" wizard candidate,"Ice Incarnation" Uru and"Destruction Demon" Deliora died together.

In order to commemorate this great wizard, the Magic Council at that time reserved the only remaining vacant seat of the"Holy Ten" and would no longer grant it to other wizards, in order to remember Uru's achievements.
