Card Master in Fairy Tail

A flat piece of ground, the breeze blows, carrying the aroma of charcoal fire and barbecue into the distance.

Somewhere in the forest.

On the grill, the oil dripped down the golden roasted meat onto the red charcoal fire, making a sizzling sound.

An attractive aroma emanated from a pot, and a spoon picked up the broth in the pot and poured it into two noodle bowls.

"It's not good for us, Gildarts, suck it up."

"There's nothing wrong with it, President. You have to trust the juniors, suck it up."

"Indeed, Gildarts, please pass me the chili noodles."

"By the way, President, can you eat spicy food?"

"Thirty years ago, I was the spicy food champion."

"Oh! As expected of the president, can I ask where you won the championship?"

"Tiantian Cake Shop is the cake shop on our Guild Street."

"... "

Hearing this, Gildas silently changed the regular spicy to deviled spicy and handed it to Makarov.

Makarov didn't look at it and put a large spoonful of chili powder into the bowl.

"President, is it spicy?"

"Hiss...not spicy..."

Looking at Makarov who was blushing but still speaking harshly, Gildarts couldn't help laughing.

Makarov didn't know yet that Gildarts was up to something, but now he just wanted to drink something to relieve the heat.

"President, drink some milk to relieve the spiciness."

A hand offered a glass of milk. Makarov, who was so hot that he couldn't find the north, south, east or west, took the milk.

After a glass of milk, Makarov felt much better. Wait, who gave me the milk?

"President, your companions are fighting on the front line, and you and Gildas are feasting and drinking in the back. Is this okay?" A cold and majestic voice sounded.

Who else but Erza could use such a tone, Makarov suddenly felt a chill in his back.

"Wait, Erza, it's not just me, but also Gildarts..."

"President, it is wrong to shirk responsibility."

"Oh, Erza, how can you say that? After all, the old man is the president. Come on, president, give me another glass of milk."

Yu Xuan smiled and filled the cup in Makarov's hand with milk.

How could Makarov not know that You Xuan was trying to support the fire.

How long has it been, is this kid so vindictive? Makarov suddenly regretted letting Yu Xuan lead the team to complete the mission on Karna Island.

"Hmph, the old guy should abdicate as soon as possible and go back to his old age." Rebellious words came out of Laxus' mouth.

"Wow, is this a banquet? President."

Natsu and Gray came over carrying a thick branch. On the branch, Huayuan was trapped like a pig.

"Erza, we are back and the operation went smoothly."

On the other side, Jellal led the Witch's Sin back, and Zancrow was also captured alive by them.

"Well done, boys." Makarov finally found the opportunity to change the subject, "Yu Xuan, where is your opponent?"

"Gone."

"Ah? Didn't you agree to try to capture them alive?"

You Xuan could only explain Caplico's affairs to everyone, and by the way emphasized Leo's "great achievements".

Sure enough, everyone's attention was attracted by Leo's past.

"You can earn 400 million J just by picking up girls! As expected of Rocky (Leo), I want to learn how to pick up girls!"

"Forget it, Natsu, no woman will fall in love with you like this, except Lucy."

"Gray what do you mean!"

"By the way, Lucy has another golden key. Can she be considered the strongest Celestial Spirit Mage now?"

"Of course it doesn't count. What's the use of so many keys? There's not enough magic power. You can only use one or two keys in each battle to reach your limit."

"It's troublesome to hold magic. It relies too much on magic items."

"Lucy, call Leo out quickly. This guy with bad habits should be taught a lesson."

"Wait a minute, Erza, why are you pretending all of a sudden? Jellal should take care of her!"

"Erza, don't use violence. If it doesn't work, you can come at me."

"Jeral, are you awake?"

In the star spirit world, Leo, who was reminiscing with Caplico, scratched his head, completely unaware that he had already experienced life and death.

After a brief fight, everyone began to discuss the next battle.

"There is only one left of the Seven Familiar of Purgatory, Azuma who controls the Lost Demon 'Arc of the Big Tree'."

"And Hades and Brunot should be alert now. It will be difficult for us to seduce them out."

"How about a full-scale attack?"

"Gildarts and Yugen go deal with Brunot."

"The rest of the S-class magicians go and kill Azuma. Don't let him use magic to control the magic in the ground. That will cause us a lot of trouble."

"The president and Jellal are going to deal with Hades. We will take care of Brunotte and Azuma as soon as possible and then rush to assist."

"The remaining people will guard the prisoners and provide support if something unexpected happens to us."

"... "

In the end, after everyone discussed it, Natsu, Gray, Gajeel, Lucy and Angel were left to guard the rear.

Of course Natsu and I wanted to fight on the front line, but Erza gave him a glare and he was convinced.

Seeing Natsu's appearance, Gray didn't dare to say anything.

Gajeel took the initiative to stay because his injury from the Ghost Ruler had not yet healed.

Lucy and Angel did not object. One of them did not want to cause trouble to everyone, and the other was a Celestial Spirit Mage who had lost the Celestial Spirit Key and had no fighting power.

Everyone agreed with Erza's arrangement. Counting the number of people in the venue, there were 16 people. Excluding the five people guarding the prisoners, there were only 9 people left.

You Xuan looked at this scene, and for some reason, a sentence suddenly came to his mind: There are more people than others, and the advantage is mine.

. . .

Dark forest, top of the spaceship.

"What on earth are you doing? Of the seven descendants of Purgatory, two defected, one was crippled, and three are missing. What use do you have!"

Brunotte cursed at Azuma, the only remaining member of the Seven Families of Purgatory.

Azuma's face was filled with displeasure, but he had no choice but to do anything about it. Although the Seven Families of Purgatory were not managed by Brunot, it was really embarrassing to be like this now.

"That's enough, Brunotte." Hades stopped Brunotte, "How about the Mechanical Fortress."

"It can be activated at any time, but I don't know if Rastilos, a loser, can hold on."

"Don't worry, Brunot. Although Rastilos was defeated and became a cripple, his huge magic power has not disappeared, so just let him be a magic energy source with peace of mind."

"You are too kind."

"Haha, it seems we have an enemy coming."

Hades's eyes seemed to see far away.

"The Ghost Dominator planned to use it to deal with Fairy Tail, but now that the Ghost is gone, let us use it in their place."

"Notify us and activate the mechanical fortress."

"Yes."

As the mechanical fortress was activated, the energy room inside the fortress let out a desperate scream.
