Mr. Mo En! We can raise the offer!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rejected reporter grew desperate, unwilling to leave; landing this exclusive interview would skyrocket his standing at the newspaper.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How much?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mo En asked curiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Uh—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reporter froze for a moment, then his face lit up with ecstatic joy; he held up one finger and declared firmly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“One million J, plus another one million J!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After speaking, the reporter stared hopefully at Mo En—they weren’t afraid he’d demand more money; they were terrified he wouldn’t take any at all!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh, sorry, no interviews.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mo En lost interest and repeated his refusal; two million J for one interview was indeed a substantial sum, but he still declined—primarily because he simply didn’t need the money.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reporter stood stunned, utterly bewildered—he’d doubled his offer, and Mo En still wasn’t satisfied?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We can go higher!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reporter chased after Mo En all the way to the Fairy Tail guild hall, where he was blocked at the entrance by the two gatekeepers, forced to watch helplessly as Mo En stepped inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do Itachi have a job to request?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gray, wearing nothing but a pair of oversized shorts, spoke sternly, extending both arms to block the reporter’s path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Uh—yes!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reporter paused, then had a sudden idea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What kind of job?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Natsu, beside Gray, widened his eyes; if there was a legitimate request, they couldn’t just refuse entry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I want to hire someone to interview Mr. Mo En Doreaga of Fairy Tail!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reporter shouted it out—his bold maneuver left Gray and Natsu speechless; the two gatekeepers stared dumbly before letting him inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, alright, Itachi’re playing it this way, huh?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mo En was utterly speechless; he watched the reporter, waiting for him to submit the request, eager to see what new trick he’d pull.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’d already turned down countless reporters lately; this one was the most persistent, even resorting to job requests.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How may I assist Itachi, sir?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aera greeted the sweating reporter with her professional smile, leading him to the request board.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m submitting a request: to hire someone to interview Mr. Mo En Doreaga of Fairy Tail, with a reward of three million five hundred thousand J!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment of hesitation, the reporter went all-in, staking everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Are Itachi certain?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aera opened her mouth, inhaling sharply; she looked at the reporter and confirmed the request and reward amount again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Certain!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reporter nodded firmly; he knew this tactic was questionable—almost coercive—as he was using money to pressure other Fairy Tail members into convincing Mo En, effectively forcing him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Other reporters may have thought of this, but he was the first to actually do it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, please wait a moment.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aera smiled as she completed the form, collected a fee that made the reporter wince, then posted the request on the guild board.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A reward of three million five hundred thousand J, no eligibility restrictions—even a novice mage could accept it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After posting, the reporter waited eagerly; three and a half million J meant he wouldn’t have to worry about money for at least two or three years. With so many mages in Fairy Tail, he was sure someone would bite!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But reality always delivers the cruelest blows; after posting this bizarre request, it didn’t spark any buzz—not even a ripple. Everyone glanced at it and moved on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How could...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reporter stood dumbfounded, unable to comprehend it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why wouldn’t it? What do Itachi think Fairy Tail is? Why do Itachi think we’re Fiore’s top guild? Itachi should’ve learned something before coming.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the reporter’s bewildered expression, Aera smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Using emotional manipulation to pressure Mo En into an interview, then pocketing the money meant for him—Fairy Tail members would never do such a thing; it would earn them scorn, and the guilt would eat at their conscience.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reporter was stunned; watching the laughing, chatting members of Fairy Tail, he felt he’d gained a whole new understanding of the guild—perhaps he should report on something else?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mo En watched the reporter, thinking this had been a lesson for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In truth, Mo En hadn’t refused every interview—he’d accepted one from The Mage Weekly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But that was solely to promote “The Great Detective Holmes,” and he’d said almost nothing about defeating Joseph Bola.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s why other reporters still came seeking exclusive interviews.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Mo En truly had no intention of discussing it further—he couldn’t, and he didn’t want to clear Joseph Bola’s name.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Let the rumors fly a little longer; let “The Great Detective Holmes” soak up more traffic. The last interview had worked perfectly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once it became known that the author of “The Great Detective Holmes” was the newly famous “Rose Star God,” the still-unreleased novel sparked massive excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no help for it—the “Rose Star God,” as the hottest topic of the moment, had this kind of magnetic pull, instantly devouring traffic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the buzz generated by “The Great Detective Holmes” fed back to the “Rose Star God”; everyone was curious what kind of story this young “heaven-sent star god” could write.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many doubted it—inevitably so; if the quality was poor, the moment it launched, the traffic backlash would crush him, and his reputation would turn toxic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But neither Mo En nor The Mage Weekly worried—because they had absolute confidence in the story.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The certainty of its future success brought peace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Go out on a mission to avoid this.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mo En scanned the request board, selecting a task.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Great Detective Holmes” was about to be published; he could expect even more reporters to swarm in the coming weeks—Fairy Tail’s guild hall would become chaotic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mo En didn’t want to deal with reporters; he decided to go out on missions—increasing his strength was the priority.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After careful consideration, Mo En accepted a mission that seemed like pure combat fun: wiping out a gang of bandits hiding in the woods. But that was just a side task—the real prize was a monster to be slain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This village... surrounded by monsters and bandits, yet still standing? It must have something going for it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mo En held the request slip, staring at the location; the village was surprisingly close to both the bandits’ hideout and the monster’s mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll go take a look.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he thought, Mo En went to Aera to complete the mission pickup, ignoring the reporter entirely, then set off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walking through Magnolia’s streets, Mo En felt relaxed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the initial frenzy faded, the citizens of Magnolia returned to their usual attitude toward him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mostly because they already knew him well; though initially surprised, they’d quickly adapted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mo En greeted acquaintances along the way, soon reaching the station; he’d deliberately chosen a distant, remote mission to avoid drawing undue attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Mo En boarded the train and departed, a group from Phantom Lord arrived—Gajeel stepped off the train just as Mo En left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But luck was with him; as soon as he stepped down, he heard the station staff talking about the recently departed Mo En.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mo En! Did that guy just leave Magnolia?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gajeel forgot his pain, lunging forward to confront the two chatting staff members, his face terrifyingly fierce, startling them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who are Itachi, kid? Why are Itachi asking about Mo En?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though startled by the spiked-faced youth, the two staff members grew wary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, only slightly—so many people had been asking about Mo En lately, reporters arriving in droves; had Gajeel not looked so unconventional and been so young, they’d have assumed he was another reporter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gajeel froze under the question; he couldn’t just say he’d come for revenge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But then he thought—why not? He wanted to make a scene! Make everyone know!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1336,"2026-06-21T03:49:57.516Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","54396d470187a7c800552609c70c483283a14e91158303f253bf059374840672","fairy-tail-you-call-this-spirit-magic-chapter-99","fairy-tail-you-call-this-spirit-magic-chapter-97",103,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ffairy-tail-you-call-this-spirit-magic-cover.jpg"]
