Fairy Tail: My Magic is Yugi Muto's Deck

Chapter 307 Makarov: Thank goodness, it's the heart! I'm saved!

Chapter 307 Makarov: Thank goodness, it's the heart! I'm saved!

Looking at the grinning brat in front of him, Makarov sighed heavily and sat back down in his seat.

He knew Chase's personality and temperament very well; no matter how many times he warned him, it was to no avail, as Chase would occasionally do something that would shock people.

Even so, he still firmly believed that Chess was the best candidate for the next chairman, after all, compared to idiots like Naz Elfman,

This guy has a much clearer understanding of many things.

For example, the underhanded tactics the council engaged in behind the scenes this time.

Makarov himself had gone through a phase of youthful impetuosity and causing trouble, so he knew very well that time would allow Chase to become more mature and stable.

"Although the council and the guild have a manager-managed relationship, in the end, we are just mutually benefiting from each other."

After a brief pause, Makarov said in a deep voice, "As long as the guild's interests are not substantially harmed, let those idiots make a fuss. Just remember not to place too much hope in them."

Magic is freedom. Worrying about the opinions of those above will only hinder your growth. There's no need to care about that pile of crap from the Magic Council. Just move forward on the path you believe in. That's what a Fairy Tail mage should do!

He said something like that when Lucy first joined the guild.

"I see."

Chase smiled and nodded, saying, "As long as our fists are strong enough, even if we tear down the Council, people will still applaud us for doing a good job."

"..." Makarov's lips twitched.

Which word did you hear that made you think I meant that?!

"After the battle with Hades, I feel the burden on my body is getting heavier and heavier. I even have a slight heartache now. I may not be able to hold on for many more years."

Knowing that ordinary persuasion would have no effect, the old man's eyes lit up, and he immediately clutched his chest and started playing the emotional card.

"So, Chess, you don't want to see the guild fall into chaos without a leader after I'm no longer able to function, do you?"

The old man is putting on quite a show, and the flavor is a bit too strong!

Chase silently complained to himself, and for some reason, certain scenes that only appeared in his notebooks inexplicably surfaced before his eyes.

"Alright then, for the future of the guild, I will try my best to become a qualified guild leader." He helplessly spread his hands.

"Really?!" Makarov immediately perked up.

The surprise came so suddenly that even he, who had experienced many ups and downs, felt a sense of unreality.

"Well, but only if your body really reaches a point where you can't keep going."

Chase picked up his teacup and took a sip to hide the barely concealed smile on his face.

"Great, great, great!" Makarov laughed like a child.

Could Chase know his physical condition better than him?

Leaving aside the various functions of natural aging, the hidden injuries accumulated from years of fighting, and common symptoms of the elderly such as high blood pressure, the heart disease alone, which even Polius had no solution for, is more than enough.

This is a fact known to the entire guild, and even if Chess wanted to refute or refuse, he couldn't find any reason to do so!

Old Ma never imagined that the illness that had plagued him for so many years could now become powerful proof of his glorious retirement!

"Grandpa, what do you think of the 'heart' magic that Hades developed?" Chess asked with a smile.

Makarov, already picturing a leisurely life of sitting in a cabin in the woods with Yajima at sunset, subconsciously replied, "It's flawless in every way. Not only can it provide almost unlimited magic power, but it can also enhance various bodily functions, thus extending lifespan."

"Without this magic, Hades would probably have already—"

As he was speaking, as if realizing something terrible, Makarov's expression froze instantly, and he stopped talking abruptly.

If I remember correctly, all of Hades' magical research materials were packed up by Ultear and handed over to Chess.

Those knowledgeable dark mages must have already begun studying those books.

With Nirvana's example as a precedent, it's estimated that a more perfect "Devil's Heart" will be developed soon!

In other words—

"That's right, old man, you're saved!" Chase finally laughed out loud.

Only then did Makarov realize he had completely fallen into a trap set by the cunning card player, and he immediately covered his forehead, tears streaming down his face: "A tonic! This kind of thing!!!"

"Hey neighbor, can you be a little quieter?!"

The grief-stricken sobs even penetrated the excellent soundproofing of the VIP carriage, drawing a scolding from the passenger next to me.

Because it was a special meeting about the heart of the most powerful dark guild, the Demon's Heart, its importance far exceeded that of ordinary meetings, so the meeting was held directly at the headquarters of the Ishgar Council.

Upon arrival, disembark and board the welcoming carriage sent by the council. Pass through the bustling town streets and follow the Pea Mountain Road straight to the top of the mountain, where the majestic building built at the highest point comes into view.

Led by the council's envoy, the Frogman, Chess and Makarov successfully arrived at the meeting hall.

The hall was already filled with people, mostly guild leaders who had come from all over.

"Hey, it's been a long time! Makarov-chan and Chess-kun too!"

Against a pink special effects backdrop, a bald, greasy monster with heavy makeup and brightly colored clothes comes dancing lightly.

Bobu, the president of the Blue Pegasus Guild, rested his chubby cheek on one hand and said with a shy expression, "I heard about it! You guys actually managed to take down that demon's heart in one go, so cool~"

"Hey Bob, long time no see," Makarov greeted with a smile.

Chase quietly hid behind the old man, trying to minimize his presence.

Even he could only avoid a beauty like Bob.

However, you can escape one pervert, but you can't escape another.

"The scenes of fighting the Oración Seis alongside me are still vivid in my mind. During this time apart, I have been thinking of you day and night, my best friend."

A handsome face, practically glowing with its own special effects, suddenly appeared, and Ye Yi rushed over to Chase, sniffing him frantically. "Mr. Chase's scent is still as masculine as ever, so manly!"

Chase: "....."

"I was really shocked when I heard the news, Makarov, you guys have really turned the whole forest upside down."

"Hahaha, as expected of you, Chase! I approve of your wildness!"

Two voices came from the side; they were Goldman, the guild leader of the Four-Headed Hounds, and Pakas, the guild's ace mage.

"Just imagining the scene of battling the heart of a demon makes me want to spin around and spin around~"

Oba Barbama, the guild master of Boa Princess Scale, appeared shortly after. Jura, who had come with her, greeted Makarov and then turned to join the team of three young mages: Chess, Ichiya, and Pakas.

They were all old acquaintances from the Brotherhood of Guilds. Apart from Pacas, they had even participated in the operation to defeat Oración Seis together. Since they met here, they were bound to catch up.

This also shows that all the guilds attach great importance to this special meeting on the Heart of the Demon, and each brought their core members who are expected to become the next guild leader.

With the arrival of the main characters, Makarov and Chase, the previously somber atmosphere of the hall suddenly became lively and bustling.
