Chapter 41

Although Phantom had been repelled, life for the Fairy Tail guild wasn't easy.

To be precise, life for Master Makarov wasn't easy.

After all, according to the Magic Council's regulations, fighting between official guilds is prohibited.

This time, Fairy Tail and Phantom Lord had caused such a big commotion, so naturally, they couldn't avoid being held accountable by the Magic Council.

Of course, this incident was unilaterally provoked by Phantom.

However, Fairy Tail's reputation in the Magic Council wasn't very good.

Many councilors couldn't wait for Fairy Tail to cause some big commotion so they could take the opportunity to root out this thorn in their side.

And this time, some councilors proposed dissolving both Fairy Tail and Phantom Lord.

Fortunately, there were people in the Magic Council who had a relatively good relationship with Makarov.

Finally, through the hard work of these people, Fairy Tail managed to survive this disaster safely.

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, seven days had passed since the Phantom incident.

After seven days of recovery, Fairy Tail had returned to its usual daily routine.

In the guild, which had undergone simple repairs, it was still a mess.

Everyone was laughing, talking, and fighting.

Just as everyone was making noise, Makarov walked in.

"Master, you're back!"

Erza saw Makarov enter and immediately walked up to ask, "How does the Council intend to deal with our guild?"

Hearing Erza's words, the noisy hall suddenly went quiet.

All eyes fell on Makarov, as if waiting for his reply.

Makarov scanned everyone, then jumped onto a table to face them.

"Ahem..."

Makarov first cleared his throat, then said, "Regarding the Council's decision, the Phantom Lord guild is hereby dissolved!"

Hearing Makarov's answer, everyone remained unmoved, as if they had expected it.

"What about our guild?"

Brother Na Zi asked impatiently.

"Of course, we're fine!"

Upon hearing Makarov's answer, everyone in the hall cheered.

"However, I have another important matter to announce!"

"Important matter, what important matter?"

Everyone looked at Makarov with confusion.

"Starting today, our guild will welcome a new member!"

"Oh? Is another newcomer joining the guild after Lucy?"

"Who could it be?"

While everyone was discussing, Makarov looked at the door and shouted, "Come in, the person outside!"

Outside?

Hearing Makarov's words, everyone looked toward the door.

Subsequently, under everyone's gaze, a black-haired man wearing a black cloak walked in.

"It's Following Ye Yu!"

Levy looked at the man walking in, her eyes lighting up.

"Following Ye Yu! It really is you!"

Brother Na Zi also shouted excitedly.

Furthermore, Erza, Gray, and the other people who knew Following Ye Yu all revealed expressions of having expected this.

"This is Following Ye Yu; starting today, he is a member of our big family!"

"If anyone has anything they want to ask, go ahead!"

After Following Ye Yu walked over, Makarov jumped down from the table and said to everyone.

"Following Ye Yu, let's have a fight!"

Before anyone else could speak, Brother Na Zi shouted with a fighting spirit.

"Brother Na Zi, you need to stop; today is a good day for Following Ye Yu to join the guild, we should hold a welcome party or something for him!"

Erza walked to Following Ye Yu's side and scolded Brother Na Zi sternly.

Brother Na Zi was still instinctively a bit afraid of Erza.

After hearing Erza's words, he immediately looked dejected.

At this moment, Following Ye Yu said, "No matter, since Brother Na Zi wants to fight, then let's fight!"

Brother Na Zi, who had been dejected a second ago,

was now excited.

However, Erza sighed.

A few minutes later, the people in the Fairy Tail guild had all gathered outside the guild.

And Following Ye Yu and Brother Na Zi were standing in the middle of the crowd, facing each other from a distance.

"Is the newcomer going to fight Brother Na Zi?"

"I wonder what magic this newcomer uses!"

What magic?

Hearing the discussions of the crowd, Lucy immediately recalled the scene of Following Ye Yu fighting Juvia that day.

The magic that turned the Element Four's Sol into a mouse.

The magic that froze Juvia.

And the magic that made Juvia small.

Thinking of this, Lucy looked at Brother Na Zi with an expression of "good luck to you."

"Brother Na Zi, should be fine, right?!"

Just as Lucy was thinking this, Brother Na Zi had already started attacking Following Ye Yu.

Brother Na Zi's feet suddenly sprayed out a burst of flames.

Propelled by the flames, his body blasted toward Following Ye Yu like an arrow from a bow.

Seeing Brother Na Zi rushing over, Following Ye Yu directly activated Brandish's Transformation Magic attribute.

Hum—

In just an instant, Following Ye Yu's body became immensely huge.

"So big!"

Mirajane, Erza, and the others on the side looked up at the immensely huge Following Ye Yu in front of them and exclaimed.

"He doesn't just know how to shrink, he can also grow larger?"

Lucy widened her eyes and said in surprise.

And Brother Na Zi, who was rushing toward Following Ye Yu, saw Following Ye Yu, who was the size of a mountain, and was so scared that he instantly stabilized his figure.

"Giant magic like the Master's? No, this is much bigger than the Master's!"

"Following Ye Yu, your body has become so big, how are we supposed to fight?"

Brother Na Zi shouted at Following Ye Yu in protest.

Hearing Brother Na Zi's words, Following Ye Yu instantly returned to normal, then raised his arm and activated Transformation Magic again.

Hum—

At this moment, that arm of Following Ye Yu's was immensely huge, like a giant hand supporting the sky.

"Oh? He can even make a certain part of his body grow larger; this is truly an interesting ability!"

Erza looked at Following Ye Yu and exclaimed seriously.

A certain part of the body growing larger!

Levy, standing to the side, heard Erza's words, and she immediately thought of something, and then a puff of hot air rose from the top of her head.

"Levy, what's wrong with you? Your face is so red!"

"N... nothing!" ===== CHAPTER 43 =====
