Fairy's Chess Game

Chapter 174 Magic Technician?No, I'm a scientist!
"Kildas is still so powerful and domineering!" People roared with laughter.

Natsu wasn't annoyed by being instantly killed. Instead, he broke free from the ceiling with a burning expression of excitement.

"Still as strong as ever! Kildas, come again!" Natsu challenged again.

"Forget it, I just came back, let me, an old man, take a rest." Kildas was completely informal, and left without putting the skin on his shoulders, "Everyone, I'm sorry, I'll go back and have a rest first, and invite everyone to drink tomorrow!"

Then he said to Naz: "Come to my place right now, I have something to tell you. By the way, if you are free later, Woz, you can come too."

Woz agreed casually, and he himself had already sat back to his original position, and began to process the blood collected just now.

Woz took out a piece of paper folded into a rhombus shape, which was already bright red, shining like a jewel under the light.

Lucy leaned over curiously, looking at where her blood had been used.

I saw Woz took out a brand new quill, and began to write vigorously on the small square inch of the paper with blood as ink.Lucy couldn't understand what was being written at all, and could only be surprised by Woz's writing speed. The full glass of blood was decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

As the last drop of blood melted into the paper, a strange smell diffused out, fishy and sweet.Knowing that it was the smell of blood, Lucy still had a "delicious" feeling.

After the girl came to her senses, she hurriedly took a few steps back covering her mouth and nose, what kind of smell is this?Vampire's blood dishes?He even made himself a normal person to have an appetite for blood!
Woz dropped the pen easily: "Don't be nervous, it's harmless, it means the blood magic has succeeded. You're done, take it!"

"Is all the blood I have drained these days here?" Lucy stretched out her hand cautiously, a little creepy.This rhombus-shaped amulet is no longer made of paper. It feels heavy after you get it. The texture, hardness, and deep and charming red luster... It is no problem to say that it is a ruby.

After thinking of gems, Lucy felt much better. Most women like such shiny things.

"So senior, what's the function of this?"

"It can save your life!" Woz said, "You'd better wear it close to your body, and integrate it into your magic circulation as a part of your body. Since it is made with your own blood, it shouldn't be difficult to do."

Lucy asked in surprise, "Why?"

Woz explained: "In theory, this amulet can be further improved. Under the influence of your own magic power, its ability should continue to improve."

Lucy nodded in agreement with half understanding, and then asked in a daze, "After all, what is the effect of this?"

Woz spread his hands: "It's also the first time I made this kind of amulet, who knows? But... it's best never to have it appear."

Lucy suddenly had black hair, but finally thanked Woz with satisfaction, and wore the amulet as a pendant and hung it around her neck.

Somewhere on the mountain behind Magnolia, an independent small house stands quietly.This place is usually inaccessible, and its remoteness is comparable to that of Woz's forest villa.

This is where Kildas lives. Since he hasn't come back for three years, the appearance of this small house is almost dilapidated, unlike Woz's house, and Rebby often helps clean it and maintain it as her spare library.Natsu and Happy come by from time to time, but you can't expect them to clean the house, they can't even take care of their own nest!

But after all, this is the house where Gildas lived. At the beginning of the construction, President Makarov tried his best to bless it with countless defensive magic and strengthening magic, just to prevent it from being accidentally damaged by his own residents. .It's not an exaggeration to say that even if the mountain behind falls down, nothing will happen to this little house!

So, despite its miserable appearance, the house itself is as strong as ever.

The exchange between Gildas and Nazhabi is currently unfolding in the room.

"...At the last moment, it appeared! I don't know what your father Igniru looks like, but that dragon is definitely not a kind person!" Without the smile that had been hanging on his face, Keir Das's face was extremely serious. He opened the cloak on his body, revealing his scarred and bandaged body underneath, "It just happened in a flash. I didn't even have a chance to fight back, so I was injured like this!"

"Oh my god! How is it possible!" Hubby frowned in surprise, "Even Kildas is no match?"

"Black Dragon...?" Natsu was also lost in thought.

"Yo? Your limbs are still intact!" Woz just came to the door, and was a little surprised when he saw the scene in front of him.

Kildath's forehead twitched: "Why do I feel that you are a little disappointed? Do I have to cut off my limbs before giving up?"

"No, it's just that I have already obtained the highest-level mechanical armor, which is just for you. I didn't expect you to have no limbs?"

Gildas pulled up his cloak: "Hmph, you guys keep sending messages every day, implying that I will encounter Akunorollia, will I still be so careless!"

Woz smiled: "It's fine."

"Why are you alright? My left ribs are all broken!" Kildath smiled wryly, "You have to be careful, that guy is really strong. I'm afraid no one can beat him in this world."

Naz seemed to be still immersed in the news of the black dragon, and suddenly got the news of the real dragon, but it was not the kind of dragon he wanted at all, which made him feel very complicated, and he stayed by the side silently.

"Naz like this is really rare." Kildath muttered, "By the way, why didn't you see Lisanna?" In the guild, Naz and Lisanna were his two favorites. child.

Naz became even more depressed after hearing this, and Hubby also said sadly: "Lisanna passed away two years ago."

Kildas sighed: "So it's like this... That's why Mirajane has changed so much..."

"Lisanna is not dead!" Almost reflexively, Woz said immediately.

Nazhabi looked at Woz with even more grief, and he was the only one who still insisted that Lisanna was alive.

Woz stared at him unflinchingly, refusing to give in at all.

Insisting that Lisanna is not dead has, until now, become an obsession with Woz.Everything that has happened recently has begun to make Woz doubt whether the "original plot" he insists on is still useful.Although the general situation has been maintained with the mutual checks and balances and help of him and the chess players, more details have undergone earth-shaking changes.The more Woz insisted, the more guilty he felt, in case...

Woz once expected that Lisanna would safely return to Fairy Tail and everyone after the Edras incident. This would be the best gift for Mirajane.

Now, Woz is increasingly concerned that this is really just wishful thinking.

Feeling that the atmosphere was a little stiff, Kildas regained his lazy uncle side and began to interrupt: "Okay, okay, let's put this matter aside for now. Woz, I came to you to tell you one thing, that chess piece The hand has also come to Magnolia."

Regarding the fact that Kildas knew the chess game, Woz was very calm. Anyway, the secret of this chess game has become a common thing that everyone will know. One more person knows that Woz is completely too lazy to be surprised.

"What is he here for? How did you know?" However, he still showed a certain degree of curiosity and vigilance about the chess player's arrival.

"We met in Death Canyon, and we walked together for three days. The chess player seems to have something to ask for you. But that guy is too dishonest. He separated from me before entering the city, and he doesn't know where he is now. "Kildas shrugged, "So let me tell you, let you prepare yourself first, and don't fight directly when the time comes."

Regarding the arrival of the "quasi-enemy" chess player, Kildas has always been calm. After all, this is Fairy Tail's home field, and he has always been confident in his own strength.Even after encountering Akunorollia, all Gildas thought of was to practice further.What he said just now was just hitting Natsu.

After hearing this, Woz also frowned and began to think, but soon he gave up thinking, and he could do whatever he wanted.Facing a guy who is good at layout like a chess player, Woz has already worked out a countermeasure - just don't think about it. Anyway, he will never be able to fight against others. It is better to let him take the initiative, and Woz will take over later. That's it.

Chess players also walked into the city at this moment.That's right, for a person like him, doing anything requires planning in advance, making various preparations, and taking specific actions after the layout is complete.Therefore, before officially meeting with Woz, chess players need to make some preparations, even if this is his territory.

First of all, find that woman Daphne!

Originally, the chess player just sent her over to deliver a letter, but she ended up staying in Magnolia on the grounds that she "needed to see the parade", and has stayed there until now!
It's so capricious!The girls under him seem to be so capricious.The chess player had a headache, he took out his chessboard and began to look for Daphne's whereabouts.

Soon, the person was found.In fact, even without the chess player deliberately looking for it, just as he walked into the busiest street, Daphne's very characteristic super-speed voice came from afar.

"...What? You don't even know you want to open a shop here with such a simple structure? Is it amazing to be a mage? Even if you are a mage, you must have basic scientific knowledge. Why must a simple transmission mechanism solve the problem? Do you want to use magic to do it because you are a mage? Are you doing business or do you just want to show off your status as a mage? Although magic power is convenient and easy to use, it is also limited. You made it Not many people can use this puppet, even mages, there are very few people who can bear such a consumption of magic power!"

The chess player held his forehead helplessly, walked over, and saw a spectacled woman in a white coat blocking the door of a magic equipment store, yelling mercilessly.

"I've told you all, give full play to the role of mechanical structural components and save these extra mana consumption, your puppets can at least double their combat effectiveness! Why don't you listen to me and look down on authority figures!"

The tall and strong shopkeeper had no temper at all when he was scolded. He simply bowed his head and admitted his mistake, and kept whispering that he would rectify it immediately.

The crowd onlookers applauded for a while, and the whole process was like watching a play.

Although Daphne scolded very unceremoniously, no one present felt that there was anything wrong.In addition to watching the excitement, some people even started to record carefully.

In just a few days, Daphne was recognized by all the merchants on the street.Her insights on magic equipment and her ability to research and modify directly convinced people.

Seeing that things are basically going well here, some of the onlookers couldn't wait to send invitations to Daphne, hoping that she could help improve their products.

"Master, come to my shop!"

"No, don't listen to him, come to my shop, Master!"

"Grandmaster……"

Daphne frowned, and said unhappily, "Shut up, everyone! I've said it all, don't call me a master, it sounds indistinguishable from your so-called 'masters'!"

The shopkeeper in front of him explained with a smile: "Don't get me wrong, 'Master' is a title given to you because everyone respects you very much. Only the best magician can become an official master!"

"That's enough, I've said it many times, don't call me a master! I'm not a magician, I'm a scientist!"
