Fairy's Chess Game

Chapter 173 Return of the Overlord

It was another early morning, and with the arrival of people, the guild began to become lively.After a short rest period, a large number of quest bees rushed to Fairy Tail.After the triple filtering by the Senate, Makarov, and Mirajane, nearly a hundred tasks are still posted on the task board every day.The members of the guild also began to get busy.

As the group with the most eye-catching performance recently, Erza's team seems to be very leisurely.Just after the war, President Makarov ordered them to rest in peace.

However, despite the holiday, Lucy still came to the guild early in the morning habitually, and she liked the feeling of being with everyone.

As a newcomer, there are countless new things waiting for her to discover every day.Even simply chatting with your companions is a very pleasant experience.

Except Woz!These days, Lucy is a little reluctant to meet this senior whom she has always respected.

"Hey, good morning, little Lucy!" Someone greeted warmly just after entering the gate, "Hey, your face is a little pale, you should pay more attention to rest!"

The man seemed to think that this was the aftereffect of Lucy's battle against the six demon generals.

Lucy laughed a few times, responded to the other party's greeting, then walked to the bar and sat down, glanced into the corner.

Fortunately, Senior Woz doesn't seem to be here!The girl rubbed her wrists with palpitations, her complexion turned pale again.

Mirajane stayed behind the bar as always, and when she saw Lucy, she immediately walked over: "Good morning, Lucy, didn't you sleep well yesterday? You look a little ugly."

"Hehe, if you are also being bled every day..." Lucy looked bitter, she misread the wrong person, Senior Woz is not a normal person!It seems that only Mirajane can be expected in this guild!
The blond girl couldn't help but complained to Mirajane about Woz's atrocities: "It's been three days, and every day I've been caught and bled by Senior Woz! Every day I have a big cup! Mirajane, is Woz practicing? Turned into a vampire? I heard that vampires love the blood of beautiful girls."

Mirajane patiently listened to Lucy's complaints: "This is a bit too much. But don't worry Lucy, Woz is not a vampire. His words must be researching the amulet that suits you. This point Don't doubt it!"

Miss Mirajane really supported Woz unreservedly, Lucy quickly cheered up: "I know, I just complained just now, and I didn't mean to blame him... I just hope that Senior Woz's research It has ended!"

"Don't worry, I will persuade him well. After all, bloodletting every day is not good for your health."

Mirajane smiled and comforted her.Mirajane also noticed that Lucy actually did not object to cooperating with Woz's experiment, so she obediently asked him to bleed.

At this moment, Woz's voice sounded from the side: "It's okay, the research is going well, just provide a little more blood today."

Lucy jumped to the side like a frightened rabbit, while holding her wrist tightly: "No, at least wait for me to rest for a few days!"

Woz shook his head coldly and vetoed: "No, otherwise the previous blood will not be fresh. Don't worry, it's just a little bit, and it won't affect your health. If you bleed a lot now, it won't...uh...at least you can save your life during the war."

"No, it sounds very unreliable!"

Woz sat down with a serious expression: "The core concept of the blood magic I have just learned is the sentence 'blood is the currency of life, the carrier of the soul', that is to say, blood magic can convert the wizard's The blood becomes the mixed medium between the soul and the body, realizing the unity of magic power and vitality. As long as one of the magic power or life force of the blood mage is endless, he will not die and will not lack magic power. Although you do not know blood magic, but As mages, they basically have a similar tendency. The older a mage is, the deeper his magic power is, the more closely his magic power and vitality are fused. Our president Makarov is like this, That's why I fell into a near-death crisis after being deprived of magic power. If I were an ordinary person, even if I deprived all of my magic power, I wouldn't feel the slightest discomfort. So, what I have to do is to use blood magic to drain your blood into this intermediate medium..."

Lucy got a little dizzy when she heard it: "Senior? What exactly are you trying to say?"

"On the Necessity and Reliability of Moderate Bloodletting!"

Lucy helplessly raised her forehead.

Then Woz, who was quick-eyed and quick-handed, grabbed his wrist: "Mirajane, please get me a cup."

Lucy exclaimed: "No, at least change the left hand..."

There are a lot of people in the guild, but they are all indifferent to what happened here - they are used to it these days.

Lucy twisted her arms, but she didn't dare to move too much, for she was afraid that she would accidentally rub against the knife edge, and it would be a tragedy if she committed suicide by slitting her wrists!

"Boom!" The door was violently pushed open, and a person hurried in, panting, unable to speak clearly.

"...Hoohoo...not good! No, huh...it's too good..."

Just when people were at a loss, the bell tower of the city suddenly sounded a loud bell.

The guy who ran in to report the news heard it, so he stopped forcing himself to speak, and pointed to the door, motioning everyone to listen to the bell.

"This rhythm..." Natsu's expression changed rapidly, and he was overjoyed, "That's right, Kildas is back!"

The people in the guild quickly understood the meaning of the bell, and soon cheers resounded through the sky.

Wendy who just came in was amazed by everyone's enthusiasm and excitement.

"Who is Kildas?" Xia Lulu asked on her behalf.

"It is said that he is the strongest mage in the guild." Lucy also had a half-knowledge, "What a powerful reaction."

The guild fell into a carnival. Although Fairy Tail has never lacked reasons to have a carnival, it was the first time Lucy had seen such an atmosphere because of welcoming someone back.Even when Erza came back, she wasn't exaggerating like this, right?
But Erza's reaction was not much different... Lucy recalled the first time she saw the Fairy Queen.

Mirajane explained: "It's no wonder, after all, Kildas hasn't been back for three years, so everyone is very excited."

"Three years! Are you doing tasks during this period?" Lucy was dumbfounded. She already knew the working conditions of wizards very well. Generally speaking, it takes dozens of days, which is a rare long-term task.Unless you are employed and stationed in a certain place for a long time, there are basically no tasks that take more than one year.

Wendy let out a small exclamation, and her face was full of surprise, but for a little girl with basically zero work experience, she was just amazed at the three years.

Mirajane enthusiastically continued to play the role of explanation for the two newcomers: "First of all, Lucy, you should already know that the missions of mages are divided into ordinary and S ranks, right? In fact, for most mages, this is the Classification is enough - what they can accomplish, and what they absolutely can't. But when it comes to our S-level mages, we need to continue to classify the difficulty of the higher tasks.

"It's the most 'ordinary' S-level, and there are SS-levels at the top. Further up, there are super-difficult tasks that surpass the rated level-'ten-year'-level tasks, that is, tasks that have not been completed in ten years since the release S or SS rank mission."

Lucy listened to the introduction with an expression of listening to the story: "I didn't expect that there is such a classification, the world is really too big..."

Mirajane spit out the last sentence faintly: "And what Kildas is going to complete is the '[-]-year' task that is even more important than the '[-]-year' task!"

A task that no one has completed in 100 years!This length of time has already exceeded the history of the Senate!Lucy couldn't describe the astonishment in her heart. How strong is this Gildas to carry out this kind of task?This is all about challenging the difficulty, right?He is indeed the strongest mage in Fairy Tail in the legend, so domineering!

Just imagining it, thinking about the super difficulty of the century-old mission, the blond girl was fascinated for a while.So much so that his wrist was still bleeding and he no longer paid attention.

Seeing that the girl in front of him was wandering in vain, Woz simply took some more blood, not afraid of the girl losing too much blood. Anyway, Woz got a lot of blood snake fruit from Heiberian, and the blood replenishing effect is first-rate.Just give Lucy two at once.

It wasn't until the end that Mirajane couldn't stand it anymore, so she took the initiative to stop Woz's "greedy".

Woz sneered and sealed the blood with ice.Put two blood snake fruits in front of Lucy's desk, then turned to look towards the door.

The ground trembled, as if an earthquake was about to occur.

Amidst the continuous ringing of bells, the highest alarm was issued throughout the city!
"Citizens, please pay attention, Magnolia is about to enter Gildas mode! Citizens, please pay attention..."

The city split and deformed violently.From the city gate to the gate of the Fairy Tail Guild, a wide and straight road appeared. The buildings here were cracked and lifted along with the city foundation.It stands on both sides of the straight avenue, forming a "valley".

"...Enter Gildarth mode!..." As the siren sounded, more and more areas experienced huge terrain changes, and more avenues were formed straight from the outside of the city to Fairy Tail.

"What's going on with this city!" Xia Lulu exclaimed.

"Because Gildas's magic is too powerful, and he is often distracted, and he always breaks other buildings when he walks. So we transformed Magnolia into a deformable mode, specially for the newly returned Kildath. But don't worry, after a few days, he will get used to it and won't destroy houses casually," said Mirajane.

"It's too exaggerated!" Lucy complained, "To transform the whole city for one person, are you and the citizens crazy!"

Woz smiled: "Because I calculated it at the beginning, it is cheaper to renovate the city than to compensate the buildings damaged by him!"

With excitement, Lucy squeezed to the door with everyone regardless of the dizziness caused by blood loss, waiting for Gildas to appear.

Finally, with the sound of approaching footsteps, the orange-haired vicissitudes man walked to the door of the guild.

After hesitating for a while, Gildas stepped into the gate of the guild, looked at the densely packed group of people in front of him, and asked, "I'm sorry to ask, does anyone know where the original guild Fairy Tail is?"

When he left last time, the guild was still the same century-old building.But what he saw now was a brand new building that was taller and more beautiful.

Mirajane went up to greet her: "This is Fairy Tail. Welcome back, Kildas!"

Everyone cheered together.

Gildas scratched his hair: "So that's how it is. Since when the guild has been replaced by a new one... and everyone's appearance has changed a lot, so I didn't recognize it! Hahahaha!"

Now Fairy Tail personnel are mainly the young generation of the new generation, who are already in the growth stage.Three years is enough to make a big change in their appearance.

"Especially you, are you really Mirajane?" Kildas looked at the extremely gentle, smiling silver-haired girl, but he still couldn't match her with the bad-tempered "little witch" in his memory. .What happened?

In order to prevent the unknowing Kildath from touching the girl's sadness by mistake, Woz quickly changed the subject: "You haven't changed, Kildas."

"Oh! It's Woz." Kildas looked at the magic book on Woz's waist, "It's better for you to identify it."

He looked Woz up and down carefully: "Yes, it seems that you have matured a lot. Your strength... seems to have become very strong. However, your state is a bit bad."

Woz said angrily: "You don't need to worry about my situation, and I have always been mature..."

Kildas ignored Woz's words, and smiled: "It's just right, my condition is not very good, so it's evened." Then, he stretched out his hand and pressed in Woz's direction.

No magic circle appeared, but a powerful and obscure magic fluctuation could be easily felt by all the mages present.

Seeing that Gildas made a move suddenly, instead of panicking, the goblins cheered excitedly.

Kildath vs Woz?What kind of heavyweight confrontation is this!
Woz didn't move, but countless words had floated out of the book, forming a barrier to block Kildath's attack.

The magic of the two collided head-on, and Woz's text wall collapsed at the touch of a touch, and was broken into countless small pieces.But these small blocks are all intact text!Under Woz's control, they piled up again and again, forming a wall again, consuming Kildath's attack magic layer by layer.

Kildas stopped immediately after a blow, and looked at Woz thoughtfully: "You really have, when have you researched a countermeasure against my magic 'shattering'?"

"It's just a trick. It's not a real skill." Woz said modestly.

Naz's blood was boiling, and he rushed over immediately: "Since you guys are done fighting, it's my turn! Kildath sees the move!"

Gildas laughed out loud, picked up Natsu's body with his backhand, threw it into the sky, and embedded it into the ceiling.

The strength gap between the two is too great.
