Chapter 219

[Besides that, frogs of different colors also appear on the screen.]

Makarov: "This is... the Magic Council?!"

He definitely wouldn't recognize it wrong; after all, he was so familiar with that place that he could find it with his eyes closed.

Yes, it's that exaggerated, even though that place was destroyed during the previous Tower of Heaven incident.

However, before that, he would run there at least a hundred times a year.

Averaged out, it was basically a terrifying frequency of once every three days.

Therefore, even if he hadn't seen it for many years, Makarov still wouldn't forget it.

Or rather, he wouldn't forget it even in death!

Seeing Makarov's appearance, Mavis couldn't help but pat his shoulder with sympathy.

Mavis: "These years... you've suffered."

Seemingly encouraged, Makarov immediately stood up straight.

He spoke righteously: "For the guild! Death is nothing to fear!!!"

Just at this moment, Mirajane walked over, holding a letter with a puzzled expression.

"Master, this is a letter sent from the new Magic Council, saying that yesterday, when Gildarts returned home, he accidentally destroyed three more residential houses."

"Now they require you to pay damages, plus a three-thousand-word letter of apology."

Looking at the letter in Mirajane's hand, Makarov's eyelids twitched wildly.

"I... ah??? Again?!!"

[The screen in the sky continues.]

[As the scene zooms in, the perspective appears in the corridor of the Magic Council.]

[Surrounded by a crowd of frog-men, Black Natsu, Mirajane, and Erza are walking forward nonchalantly.]

[Although the three appear extremely leisurely, with Black Natsu even having his hands in his pockets and humming an unknown tune.]

[However, the frog-men responsible for escorting them behind are all acting as if they are facing a great enemy.]

[Every one of them has their heart hanging in mid-air.]

[Sweat beads are constantly seeping from their foreheads.]

[Soon, the group arrives at the entrance of a hall.]

[The Council members in white robes guarding both sides of the door widen their eyes the moment they see Black Natsu and the others.]

[The weapons in their hands tighten involuntarily.]

[But, seeing that Black Natsu and the others didn't pay them any mind, they silently breathed a sigh of relief.]

[They leaned over to the captain of the frog-man squad and said:]

["What's wrong with you guys? Such dangerous suspects, why didn't you bring magic-suppressing handcuffs?"]

[The questioned frog-man's eye corners were twitching wildly.]

[He pursed his lips toward the three in front: "Are you kidding me??"]

["If I put magic-suppressing handcuffs on them, are you trying to get me killed?"]

["Who doesn't know that they are the most terrifying guys in Fairy Tail? Just the mission to go and arrest them was dangerous enough."]

["And you want magic-suppressing handcuffs??"]

["If I put them on, I probably wouldn't come back!"]

["Even like this, we barely managed to invite these three..."]

[The frog-man complained incessantly; it was obvious how much psychological trauma this operation had caused this frog.]

[Even now, the frog-man couldn't help but curse those high-and-mighty Council members in his heart.]

[How did they get the crazy idea to arrest these three demons all at once?]

[If you're looking for a scapegoat, you don't have to point at the strongest ones to arrest, right?]

[Couldn't you have arrested someone weak like Gray or Lucy??]

Perhaps for the sake of the story's completeness, the screen's powerful function directly peered into the frog-man's inner thoughts.

And thoughtfully provided subtitles.

In an instant!

Inside the Fairy Tail guild, Gray and Lucy exploded!

Gray: "What is that damn frog saying?!!"

"Am I weak?!! Huh??"

Lucy: "Exactly, exactly! What do you mean 'arrest someone weak'? Forget Gray, even I, Lucy, get treated like this??"

Gray looked at Lucy in disbelief: "So, even you think I'm weak?"

Lucy blinked: "Otherwise? Don't forget, I'm the strongest in Fairy Tail now!"

Gray opened his mouth; although he wanted to retort, he was stunned to find that this was actually true!

"Tch!" He curled his lip in annoyance.

Gray pointed at the screen: "Forget all that, wasn't Elfman and Happy also in that operation?"

Happy raised his hand: "I'm very strong in that world!"

Gray froze!

His mouth twitched uncontrollably.

Finally, Mirajane sighed helplessly: "Speaking of which, that's talking about the Gray and Lucy of the black world, why are you two getting so worked up?"

Gray: "That may be so, but who can stand being insulted to their face like that?"

Mirajane covered her mouth and smiled, saying no more.

[In the screen in the sky.]

[Tap, tap, tap...]

[Another sound of high heels stepping on the floor came.]

[Black Natsu and the others looked back.]

[A beautiful figure walked slowly from afar.]

[Long, slender legs took elegant steps, and her long, straight black hair swayed slightly with each step.]

[It is worth mentioning that her extremely eye-catching, magnificent chest was also trembling with her steps.]

0 Asking for flowers

["Lady Ultear."]

[The frog-man immediately lowered his head the moment he saw that figure.]

[Ultear stopped in her tracks.]

[Her gaze fell upon Black Natsu, Erza, and Mirajane.]

[Her red lips curled up slightly.]

["I have long admired the three of you, but I didn't expect our first meeting to be in such a scenario."]

["Who are you?" Mirajane raised her head, showing off that fearless, delinquent girl attitude to the fullest.]

["The current Council member?" Erza raised an eyebrow slightly.]

["Looks like a big shot." Black Natsu crossed his arms.]

[He glanced at the tightly closed door behind him.]

[Then said: "So, will you be the one judging us later?"]

[Ultear shook her head upon hearing this: "You've misunderstood. I'm completely uninterested in such things, but some old geezers can't let go of their pride."]

["Therefore, they decided to hold a formal trial. It's also for this so-called face that I have to come here to listen in, just to... put on a show."]

["Plus, those old guys are afraid that they will be held responsible for this matter, so they are eager to push the responsibility away."]

["Unlike those old guys, I don't want to have a conflict with you. After all, as I just said, I've long admired you, so I'd rather get to know you."]

["My name is Ultear!"]

[As she spoke, Ultear reached out her palm toward Black Natsu.]

[However, Black Natsu merely glanced at it without giving a response, and continued: "The people inside must be impatient, right?"]

[Ultear frowned slightly, but quickly returned to calm.]

[She nodded gently.]

["Yes, then I'll go in first."]

[Ultear's back soon disappeared inside the door.]
