Fairy Tail: My Magic is Yugi Muto's Deck

Chapter 301 The Perfect Candidate for the Next President

Chapter 301 The Perfect Candidate for the Next President

The observation deck at the highest point of the Nirvana Tower.

"Chase, what's with the bump on your head and the shoe print on your face?"

Makarov looked at Chess, who had a somewhat wolfish appearance, with suspicion. He clearly remembered that Chess did not have such strange scars on his body after the fight with Hades.

So this is a fresh wound?

Mira and Erza ultimately softened and didn't beat the weakened Chase to the ground, but only gave him a small lesson.

Chess scratched his head and gave an awkward laugh, saying, "Ahem, I slipped and fell on the way here."

Beside Makarov, Ultear glanced warily at Mira and Erza, who were standing behind him with unfriendly expressions. She immediately guessed the reason and teased with a smile, "As expected of you, you can even leave a shoe print on your face when you wrestle."

Witnessing the destruction of the heart of the demon that represented evil, she felt no sense of relief or redemption. Instead, she was plunged into deep sorrow and confusion, unsure of what to do next.

After all, in a sense, the Demon's Heart was also her "home".

Makarov noticed her unusual behavior, so he took her here alone to talk to her.

In his words, it is "the duty of these old folks from the old era to guide lost young people onto the right path."

After some persuasion, Urudia finally found the meaning of her existence, which is why she is now able to act so relaxed.

Upon hearing Ultear's words, Makarov belatedly realized what was happening, his deep gaze constantly shifting between Chess, Mira, and Erza.

Judging from this, have these three little guys already laid their cards on the table?

As a dedicated Fairy Tail guild master, in addition to silently watching the growth and changes of the guild members, he also cares a lot about the daily gossip, incidents, and conflicts among the members (not just gossiping). He even specially compiled a book of photos of Natsu and the others when they were young and kept it as a treasure.

So long ago, the astute man noticed Mira and Erza's unusual feelings for Chase.

Mira and Erza felt extremely uncomfortable under the old man's ambiguous gaze, and their faces flushed red.

The thick-skinned Chase remained completely unfazed, staring blankly at Makarov.

"throat-"

With a heavy sigh from Makarov, the strange atmosphere in the room was broken.

He actually wanted to say that it was a shame that the two most beautiful flowers in the guild had ended up in the same pile of cow dung, but then he thought that it was just a matter between kids, so he simply ignored it and let things take their course.

"Tell me, Chase, what do Prehito Hades and his men plan to do after we leave?"

Makarov withdrew his scrutinizing gaze and returned to the main topic in a serious tone.

Upon hearing this, Chess was taken aback at first, then sighed, "So, you really did find out, old man."

"Isn't this obvious? You might be able to fool others with your little trick of secretly summoning the Dark Magician, but you can't fool me!"

'

That being said, the fact that Makarov did not object shows that he actually approves of Chase's cautious approach of eliminating potential threats to the guild, and is therefore pleased with it.

-

These are the qualities a guild leader should possess, in addition to strength, experience, and temperament.

In this respect, Chase is truly the perfect candidate for the next president!

Secretly summoning the Dark Magician to monitor Hades?

Mira, Erza, and Ultear all looked at Chess, clearly not expecting him to have such a trick up his sleeve.

Under the watchful eyes of the others, Chase slowly spoke, uttering a startling statement: "Hades and the remnants of the Demon Heart have been completely annihilated."

None escaped unscathed.

He came to Makarov precisely to discuss this matter and, incidentally, to reveal the existence of the black dragon Acnologia.

The calm words exploded like a depth charge, causing the pupils of several people, including Makarov, to shrink sharply, revealing expressions of disbelief.

"Total annihilation means—" Mira asked tentatively.

"That's right, they've all disappeared from this world," Chase replied affirmatively.

"How could this be—" Urudia covered her mouth and murmured.

Despite being a villain who deserved to die, she was still raised under Hades' tutelage and owed him an undeniable debt of gratitude.

Upon hearing the news of Hades' death, who should have been "forgiven," he was momentarily at a loss.

"This shouldn't be happening. The emotions that bastard showed at the end shouldn't be wrong!"

Makarov also appeared somewhat flustered, his hands, hidden in his sleeves, trembling slightly.

Trusting his own judgment, he decided to let Hades go. He believed that Chase would not kill someone who was willing to repent, so he allowed Chase to leave behind his dark magic tricks.

And now, Hades is dead?

He was killed by a dark magician?!

"Chess, what's going on?" Makarov asked anxiously, unable to figure out the reason.

"Not long after we left, a giant black dragon appeared."

Chase pulled out a card with the ability to store images from the void. "If I'm not mistaken, it should be the culprit that caused the failure of Gildarts' century-long mission, the black dragon Acnologia."

Metaphor.

The interplay of light on the card faces creates a magical holographic projection screen.

The scene unfolds from the perspective of the Dark Mage, presenting the entire process of the Black Dragon's descent and attack on Hades and others.

Having witnessed the entire incident with bated breath, Makarov and his companions were visibly grave, frozen in place, speechless for a long time.

Hades' power was evident in the previous battles; if Chase hadn't summoned the Destroyer Dragon and successfully destroyed the heart,

Even if you tied all the fairy tails together, you probably still wouldn't be able to defeat it.

Even Hades, who was so powerful, was as insignificant as an insect in front of the black dragon. Even if he burned all his life force, he could only leave a tiny, barely perceptible scar on the other's palm!

Even though it was just a holographic projection, the overwhelming despair still overflowed, subverting Makarov and the others' definition of "living beings" and constantly impacting their mental will.

Especially the final, furious roar of the black dragon, born from its inability to find the dragon, shattered everything on the scene, even the holographic projection!

"Acnologia, the world-destroying dragon Makarov recorded in the Apocalypse was the first to regain his composure, his voice extremely solemn."

Aside from the lingering heartache from the death of the second-generation guild leader and the intense despair displayed by Black Dragon, he felt mostly relieved.

If I and the guild members were to encounter that kind of monster, our fate would definitely not be much better than Hades'.

"I never imagined that the 'Nature of Evil' that the Council has been searching for actually exists in the world—" Ultear's face turned pale.

As one of the council members, she clearly had access to far more detailed information about Aknologia than Makarov.

For a long time, the council had been secretly searching for Acnologia, a monster capable of destroying the world, but they made no progress and none of the investigators they sent out survived.

"Guild Master, let's hurry up and leave. That monster is too dangerous," Erza said worriedly.

"We absolutely must not encounter it!" Mira shared the same thought.

With the example of the destructive dragon Gandora, they were relatively accepting of the idea that "dragons really exist," and were not so shocked that they were speechless.

"It should be fine. That guy is only interested in dragons. If he really comes in our direction, Nie's good and evil detection will issue a warning."

Knowing Acnologia's madness all too well, Chess offered a different perspective: "Rashly increasing magical power will only increase the likelihood of being noticed."

"I'm sorry, I was too hasty." Erza realized her impulsiveness.

"There's nothing wrong with wanting to think of your partners."

Makarov offered a word of comfort, then solemnly instructed, "Don't tell anyone else about Acnologia's appearance, especially Natsu."

Without any countermeasures, Acnologia's existence will only cause unnecessary panic and severely hinder the children's progress.

"Understood."

Erza and Mira, who understood the implications, nodded emphatically.
