Chapter Forty-Eight: Magnoria
Although it is said that Mira and the others are like arrows, if they want to return to the tail of the fairy, they still have to finish what needs to be done in Harugion.
After a period of "hard work", (it was really a literal effort, because the power system of the boat failed halfway, so the last part of the journey was completely human...... Renault finally got his "shape-shifting mini-cutie" back to the docks.
You probably can't even imagine the look on the ship's face when the shipowner sees the Pearl Oyster.
That's probably ...... What does it look like you have all your facial features gathered like folds in a bun?
"Gods, you ...... What the hell have you done to my ship! The boss threw himself in front of the dock, fell to his knees, and looked at the "boat" with a look of pity in his eyes.
"Accident, really just an accident......," Renault explained weakly, and he really couldn't find any excuse to prevaricate. We compensate according to the price. ”
The boss stood up with a "rub", his eyes were bright, he didn't know where to take out a calculator from his body, pressed it crackling for a long time, and then held up the display screen in front of Renault's eyes: "1 million J!" ”
"What did you say?" Mira on the side broke out first, "It's such a small broken ship, you dare to ask for 1 million J?" You might as well grab it! ”
"Little girl, can you be reasonable?" The shopkeeper angrily pointed to his boat, "When I rented the boat to you, it was fine, right, now?" Except that the shape is like a ship, every other part has nothing to do with the ship, okay, do you know how much it costs to fix it? ”
He counted on his fingers: "This ship is equipped with a hybrid system......
"Stop!" When Mira heard this, she immediately began to blow up: "It's okay not to mention this, your ship's magic acceleration system is obviously broken." Such an important matter, you, as the boss, actually concealed it, just because of this, we were directly swallowed by the monster into the stomach, how are we going to calculate this account? ”
Mira winked, and Elufman also exuded a murderous aura in cooperation, and combined with his appearance of not being allowed to enter, it was really quite bluffing.
"This ......" The boss finally remembered, it seems that this type of ship does have such a function, but this ship is rarely rented to fight, and he is not a magician himself, so he did not take it to heart, and now Mira's attack on this point made him difficult to cope with for a while.
After all, maliciously concealing a flaw in his equipment and putting the mage in danger is much worse than the damage to his equipment in battle. If this crime is confirmed, I am afraid he will not be able to mix in this line of work.
At this time, Renault suddenly interjected to play a round.
"Okay Mira, I think about this matter, the boss may also have a hard time, let's get down to business first." He gave Mira and Elufman a look of approval, then turned his gaze to the shipowner, a mixed smile on his lips.
Half an hour later, on the return train
"Brother Renault, you are so powerful, how do you know that as long as we say those words, that boss will let go?" Lisanna looked at Renault adoringly.
Renault himself didn't care, and casually explained: "It's very simple, negotiating with the owner of the boat shop is also a kind of negotiation, the first thing in the negotiation is to let both sides stand on an equal footing, although it is a fact that we destroyed his ship, but if we have been bitten by him, we will always be passive." However, once he finds that he also has omissions, his position of accusation does not exist, and at this time, no matter what conditions we propose, it is possible to achieve, and in fact, there is no need for us to take the initiative at all, and the boss himself lowers his posture, isn't it. ”
He sighed with a face full of vicissitudes: "Pursuing advantages and avoiding disadvantages is the true nature of businessmen, if you want to deal with them, you need to know more about them, you know?" ”
"Uh-huh!" Lisanna's eyes were full of little stars and nodded.
"You guy don't get carried away with me! Do you really think that you have become our division commander? Mira was particularly upset with Renault's man-so-like style, and her face was turned out of the window, and she snorted angrily.
"What a nuisance, isn't it, Elufman."
"But...... I think what he said makes sense. Ayluffman thought for a moment and said.
"Hey!" Mira instantly felt a sense of frustration that everyone had betrayed her relatives, and she slammed the seat, her silver hair was about to explode, and she roared at her younger siblings: "Which side are you on!" ”
For some reason, she had a vague feeling that if this guy did get to her guild, her poor team would become even more precarious.
"Okay, don't make a fuss, it's a public place." Renaud chuckled, he actually enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere as well.
"By the way, Brother Renault, what the hell do you want to go to our guild?" Lisanna asked.
"It's to find someone, she's also a star spirit magician, and her name seems to be ...... Karen? This person may have some relationship with one of my elders, and I need to check it out. By the way, have you heard of this person? ”
"The name...... Ah, it seems to be a member of the [Cyan Pegasus] guild, and I heard that she is a very beautiful big sister. Lisanna's eyes lit up.
"Cut, an old woman......" Mira snorted.
"That'...... If you're done on your own, would you be interested in joining our guild? Lisana asked, seemingly unintentionally, and Mira, on the other side, pricked up her ears when she heard this.
Renaud scratched his head, he really hadn't thought about this, in fact, he was still a member of the mercenary guild [Southern Wolf] in name, although there was no conflict between the mercenary guild and the magician guild in terms of identity and position.
"Join us!" Lishana enthusiastically pitched her guild to Renault, "Everyone in the guild is a very interesting person, like Nazgo and Brother Gray. If it were Renault's brother, it would definitely be very popular. ”
"This ......"
Renault didn't say anything explicit, just prevaricated casually, and Lisana didn't dwell on the issue anymore, instead chatting with Renault about magic and adventures.
The long journey, because of this girl, has become much more cheerful.
Doodle~
The whistle sounded, indicating that they had finally arrived at their destination, the small town of Magnoria.
The town of Magnolia is a magical commercial city with a long history. Magic flourished far more than Harugion, with the streets lined with strange signs of magic shops, and the town surrounded by a turquoise canal with small boats drifting slowly across the water.
"It's really prosperous." Renault looked around at the terroir around him, and his tone was full of admiration.
"Of course." Mira was very satisfied with Renault's attitude, he pointed to the tallest building in the distance and said, "See, that's our guild, and the most powerful guild in the whole of Fiore - [Fairy Tail]!" ”
Renault followed her fingertips to see a grand building standing on the mayor's central axis, a road leading straight to the guild's gate.
"Is there only one guild of yours here, and it really deserves to be the first in the country." Renault exclaimed again, "I think your usual work must be very heavy, after all, you have to build roads alone." "With Renault's eyesight, how could he not see that this straight path was obviously built specifically for the sake of [Fairy Tail], which shows how much this guild has to rely on on weekdays.
Mira's face, however, was a little weird.
"That...... In fact...... Forget it, I'll tell you when I have a chance. ”
She hesitated, but still couldn't tell the truth of the matter. After all, it doesn't seem to be a very glorious thing because some idiot guy in the guild forced the whole town to undergo a special transformation.
"Come on, show you our guild!" With that, Mira grabbed Renault's arm, called her younger siblings, and ran towards the guild in front of her.
