Fairy Tail: I want to summon Baron Nash

Chapter 232 What is Rhodes's last name?

At the reminder of the frog messenger, Rod took Wendy and Xia Lulu back to the testimony stand.

Happy wanted to get close to Xia Lulu, but was still rejected.

Natsu and Erza asked if Wendy was bullied by the people in the Council.

Before they could chat for a few words, the speaker knocked on the table to signal silence.

"Let's start the inquiry meeting now!"

"On the evening of March 15, the cannibal demon Kanib appeared in a valley near the north coast of the Kingdom of Fiore and was defeated by the wizard that night.

According to the investigation of the Council, the people who took action at that time were: Erza Scarlett, Natsu Dragunelu, Wendy Mabel, and Rod..."

When Rod's name was read, everyone couldn't help but look at him.

Because he only had a name, "no" surname.

Generally speaking, even if they were orphans, grew up in an orphanage or a church, or wandered outside, they would always get a surname or give themselves one.

There were very few cases like Rod who had only one name.

Erza felt this the most. Even though the person who gave her the surname Scarlett had almost completely changed, she never abandoned this surname.

Jellal at this moment might be feared and resented by her, but Jellal at that moment was not only the benefactor who saved her life, but also gave her hope and saved her soul.

But the more this happened, the more painful Erza felt when she thought of Jellal's changes.

Although it was inappropriate now, Erza couldn't help but ask: "Rod, you... don't you have a last name?"

"Yes, my last name is Luo."

"Love? Your name is Rod Luo?"

"No, last name Luo first name De, full name Rod."

Natsu asked curiously: "Shouldn't it be called 'De Luo'?"

"Just Rod, in the past, I was occasionally called Lao Luo, Ade, Xiao De, De Ge, Keshi, Luo teacher, Zhang San, etc... whatever you want to call me."

"Pfft, Xiao De." This name may have touched the happy point, he covered his mouth, and his cheeks puffed up.

Rod clarified: "Don't laugh, Xiao De is a very powerful profession, not my nickname."

They were chatting happily below, and many of the judges had dark faces.

"Silence! Since Mr. Makarov is here, I guess he has already learned the details, so please explain what happened that day."

"zzZ..." Makarov nodded, nodded again, and continued to nod.

Erza pushed Makarov's back and reminded him, "President, it's your turn to speak."

Makarov suddenly woke up and said subconsciously, "Yes, what Rhode said is what I mean!"

Rhode patted his forehead. It's bad. He has only attended two regular meetings and has spoiled the president like this.

I really can't go there again!

The faces of the judges became even uglier. This is the trial court! Don't these people feel nervous at all?

A beautiful judge with long black hair covered her mouth and laughed;

The blue-haired young man who just appeared at the door also looked dumbly laughing.

Mr. Yajima had a hard time holding back his laughter. He needed to try his best to maintain the dignity of the judge so that he would appear more important when speaking for Fairy Tail.

But Xiao Ma and his group of children are really funny.

"Mr. Makarov! Please be serious. If you can't tell what happened that day, then the crime of releasing the devil privately will be borne by Fairy Tail!"

"Ahem..." It's really not polite to sleep in court. Makarov felt a little guilty. "Then, let me explain the situation at that time..." The councilors nodded while listening. They believed that a wizard like Makarov would not lie about such things.

At most, he would be biased towards those children when speaking, or he himself was deceived by his own wizard.

After listening to him, the speaker asked: "Does anyone else have anything to add to Mr. Makarov's speech?"

Wendy didn't dare to speak, and she and Xia Lulu didn't know the details of the battle.

Natsu... The president didn't let him speak.

Only Erza and Rhodes added some details one after another.

Rhodes focused on complaining about the professional issues in the aftermath of the Council.

The councilors silently wrote down some useful information:

It turns out that Caniber is an earth demon.

It turns out that the two mountains at the scene were not all destroyed by the wizards of Fairy Tail.

It turns out that the sudden awakening of the demon is mostly the responsibility of the Council...

Wait, whose responsibility?

Oger, who ranked second among the councilors, asked: "Do you want to put all the responsibility on the Council?"

Rhodes said: "Absolutely not, but the seal is not our responsibility, and it is definitely not our decision whether it is reliable or not."

"Then what about your responsibility for trespassing into the seal?"

Rhodes looked at him strangely: "First of all, it is wrong to confuse cause and effect. The seal was abnormal first, and then we went to check it out. Moreover, your seal... is something that will explode at a glance?"

"Specious arguments! How do we know whether the seal had problems first, or you broke in first and caused the problem!"

It was tiring and unpleasant to keep looking up at people, and Rhodes spoke more and more impolitely:

"You didn't know that such an important seal had problems, so are you blaming us for not sending people to guard it?"

Oger could not fail to hear that Rhode was saying that they were negligent: "The Council is responsible for maintaining the stability of the entire Ishgar continent. How could it send people to guard the seal of a remote area?

And you should report the problem to the Council as soon as you find it, instead of handling it yourself!"

"By the time we report it, and by the time you send people, everyone in the two towns will be dead!"

"Compared to the order of the entire continent, two remote towns..."

"Oger!" Mr. Yajima couldn't help but stop him, "In this occasion, we are speaking on behalf of the Council, please don't bring personal emotions."

Oger kept silent. The sacrifice of a few people in exchange for the stability of the majority is often the principle of the Council's work.

What about Deliora ten years ago? Did no one report to the Council after destroying several cities in succession?

No, they have more important things to solve. The problems in the magic world are always piling up, and they can't spare any extra power to deal with them.

Things have priorities, and it's just a matter of choice.

Put it now, two border towns are nothing compared to the entire continent.

They always do this, and are prepared to bear the blame, but such words of disregard for life are not what the councilors should say.

"Rod, those who can sit here are all people who have contributed to the magic world. Even if you have complaints, please keep a little respect."

Mr. Yajima advised, "I promise that the Council will judge this incident fairly."

Makarov also signaled that he didn't need to say anything more, just listen to Yajima.
