The magic merchant who mingled with Fairy Tail

Because Kira destroyed a mountain yesterday, it is now in ruins.

Various rocks of various shapes and sizes and broken trees were scattered messily on the ground, occupying the area of ​​several mountains. There was also a pile of dust that was taller than a person, which was a shapeless mountain.

Everyone worked together to clear an open space as the venue for today's final assessment.

Ogast stood in the middle of the examination room holding a magic wand. Natsu and others stood opposite him. They looked like teachers and students taking an outdoor class.

Ogast's hand was very steady. His skin was obviously wrinkled due to old age, but his hand strength was completely unlike that of an octogenarian. He held the magic wand without even shaking.

His eyes were very gentle, like the grandfather next door who was unconcerned with the world, but also a little stern, more dignified than the strictest lecturer in the school.

With his long pale hair, tall and straight posture, and aloof temperament, everyone who sees Olgaste can feel his erudition and elegance, and can't help but admire him.

"The final level of this assessment, the rules are as follows:"

"The four alternates play against the other three in turn. The winner gets 2 points, the tie gets 1 point, the loser gets no points, and the one with the highest score passes the assessment."

"In other words, the supporters will not participate in the war?" Gray asked.

"Yes!"

Ogast nodded, "I think that in the first two assessments, the supporters have helped you enough. After all, this is your assessment and you need to work hard on your own."

As soon as these words came out, Gray felt reassured.

Among the remaining four supporters, Kira is undoubtedly the strongest, Gildarts is second, and Brandish's magic restrains Urrutia, so if it is a team battle, his winning rate is actually not high. But since today's assessment only tests the candidates, then his confidence is coming!

In terms of strength, I will not lose to Natsu, Lucy and Juvia!

"Listen! President! This is the way a good examiner should set questions!"

"Stop talking! You bastards!"

Makarov's face was dark, and he roared in front of Gray, spraying spittle in his face, "I have worked hard for the guild for so many years, and now I am complaining about the poor test results?! You know, I am the one who knows how to do it?" long!!"

"Yes...yes...just take a little rest today, Sandaime!"

Mavis came over with a smile on her face, gently patted Makarov, who was several heads shorter than her, and comforted him softly.

"The first generation?! Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...I am suffering!!"

Thinking of his military life, but in the end he was in danger, Makarov couldn't help but feel a sense of desolation, and he burst into tears and was filled with grief.

However, instead of feeling distressed, everyone felt... so embarrassed.

Of course, there are also people who are neither distressed nor embarrassed, but full of envy, and that is Olgaste.

‘I want my mother to touch my head like this too! Unfortunately, height does not allow! ! Damn Makarov, he can act like a spoiled brat in the arms of his mother without restraint. This kind of thing is just... so enviable! ! ! ’

Just when Ogast couldn't help but want to step forward and pull Makarov away and shout, 'Mother is mine,' a voice interrupted his random thoughts and saved the old man's image.

"What if there is not just one person with the highest score in the end, but two or three people?"

"Ahem...The winner is the winner in their battle with each other!"

Ogast seemed to have been prepared for this situation. After coming to his senses, he quickly answered several people's questions, "For example, if Natsu and Gray both score 4 points in the end, then it will be 'Natsu VS Gray' The winner of this battle emerges; if they are a tie, no one passes!"

"The same is true for three people with the same score or four people with the same score. As long as you can't beat the other three, you won't be able to become this year's S-class mage!"

"Eh...it's so harsh!"

As Ogast said the rules, everyone around him immediately fell into discussion.

"However, this method is much simpler and clearer than the president's assessment!"

"Sure enough, a man should use this kind of battle to decide the outcome!"

"If we use the scoring method to play one-on-one, we have to play six games, right? If we do it at the same time, it should shorten the time..."

"In other words, if the assessment is conducted in this way, the distribution of magic power will be very important!"

As people who had experienced the S-class assessment, Erza, Mira and others immediately realized what needed to be paid attention to in this assessment, and immediately reminded Lucy.

Lucy is also a clever girl. When Erza said this, she understood instantly: "Indeed... each person needs to fight three times. If too much is consumed in the inevitable defeat, resulting in insufficient magic power and losing the assessment that could have been successful. , the final score will drop..."

"correct!"

Ogast said suddenly, "Since Natsu and Lucy already played yesterday, they don't have to fight today, and the points will be automatically counted! That means Natsu has 2 points and Lucy has 0 points."

"Ehhhhhhh??!!"

"Didn't you say that what happened yesterday doesn't count?"

"Isn't this unfair to Gray and Juvia?"

"We lost a game from the beginning..."

Lucy frowned, with a frustrated face, and her golden hair drooped on her temples. She didn't expect that the battle between herself and Natsu yesterday was also included in the battle.

"Well...even though I can't beat Natsu in the first place..."

Wendy and Erza stepped forward to comfort them: "Actually, this is good. One less game will allow you to be in better condition to face Gray and Juvia."

"Gray and Juvia...I guess they can't beat them either..."

In Lucy's impression, Gray was about the same strength as Natsu, and Juvia was also very strong. She actually had little confidence that she could win from these two people.

"I guess I am the one with the lowest score in this assessment..."

At this moment, a wheat-colored arm holding a large wooden wine glass went around Lucy's neck from behind and hugged her. There was still 70% of the wine in his hand, and a few drops dripped down as the arm shook. The wine spilled on Lucy's white clothes on her chest, leaving a few eye-catching wine stains.

"Don't belittle yourself, you are very strong too, Lucy!"

The familiar smell of alcohol and hot body temperature came to her. Lucy looked back and saw Kana looking at her with a smile.

"Also, people who usually say 'I'm going to fail this time' before taking the exam will get higher grades than they imagined!"

Where did you hear this rumor? !

"Really?!" Lucy clapped her little hand in front of her body, and her eyes suddenly shone like stars.

She didn't care where Kana was talking about the rumors she heard from hearsay, as long as it was beneficial to her, wouldn't it be enough?

"Of course! This is the curse of the 'Spear and Shield'!"

Kira suddenly emerged from the side, smiling and explaining seriously, "The more you worry about failing in the exam, the better your grades will be; the more you want to win when fighting, the faster you will lose... The first generation and Zell My husband is under this kind of 'curse'!"

"What nonsense are you talking about?!"

“No matter how you think about it, it’s wrong?! Is the curse of ‘Spear and Shield’ such a funny thing?!”

Amidst the yelling and yelling, the game started.

Gray VS Lucy, Natsu VS Juvia, both sides played at the same time.

"I said, Senior Ogast, why do we have to do it at the same time?"

"save time!"

"Are we pressed for time?"

"No, but the key to using magic is efficiency! If you want to be an excellent magician, you must use every magic power where it should be used. The same goes for time."

"But I don't think Kira has ever considered the issue of magic power distribution?"

"That's because you didn't see his efforts behind the scenes!"

"Really, Kira?"

Everyone looked at Kira.

Kira took a long breath and said calmly: "Of course!"

Everyone suddenly realized, and their eyes on Kira changed instantly: Oh! ! No wonder this guy is so strong, he was secretly involved behind our back! Pooh! Volume King!

Ogast showed a faint smile and nodded gently: I knew...

"Not only did you not see it, I didn't see it either! Because I didn't get involved at all! I, Kira, never bother to do such little tricks behind others' backs!"

"Eh?!"×N

Auguste: Nani? ? !

"Then... how did you practice Kirasan?" Wendy couldn't help but ask.

Now not only the young people like Lucy and Lebby, but also the old people like Precito and the guests from the Western Continent were also curious.

Without involution, how do you have such huge magic power at this age?

Kira thought for a moment and said, "Well, let me teach you some useful methods!"

"Yeah!!" Everyone looked forward to it.

"The secret to my being so strong is: eat well, have good luck, rest well, play well, study well, and live happily every day!"

Kira once again moved out of Teacher Wutian's teachings.

Everyone was stunned and didn't react for a while.

This was the first time they heard Kira share his 'cultivation method'. Although they knew it would be weird, they didn't expect it to be so weird.

"Um...that is to say..."

"It all depends on talent!"
