Chapter 187: Makarov
Boom!
Natsu didn't rejoice for a few seconds before he was trampled on the ground by the gigantic Makarov, but fortunately the floor was hard, otherwise Natsu would have been stepped on a humanoid gravure mark.
Seeing such a scene, the newcomer Lucy was directly frightened silly. His mouth was wide open, and he didn't know what to say.
After eliminating the culprits of the brawl, President Makarov also spotted Rick and Lucy next to the bar, and he asked in an unkind tone.
"Are you new here?"
"Yes!"
Rick didn't speak, just looked at each other with a smile on his face, and Lucy was already frightened and subconsciously answered the question.
After Lucy replied that he was a newcomer, Makarov thought that Rick was also a newcomer to the guild, so he lifted the gigantic and returned to his true appearance of less than a meter.
He jumped on the guardrail on the second floor, took out a thick pile of secondary materials and said dissatisfiedly to everyone.
"You guys, you've got me in trouble, and the council has sent you these thick stacks of materials. All of them are here to complain! ”
In the elven world, the Council is the body responsible for governing the Wizards' Guild. In this world, anyone who establishes a Wizard Guild must accept the management of the Council, otherwise a guild that does not obey the management will be defined as a dark guild, and the Council will send other Wizard Guilds to crusade against these dark guilds.
It can be seen how high the power of the council is in this world.
Of course, this is only the superficial content that ordinary people understand. In fact, the power of the council is not that big at all, and the council is basically a soy sauce character in the summary of the demon tail plot that Rick is familiar with, except for wiping the butts of the magicians afterwards, it basically does not play any role.
"You guys! Teacher Cheng Tian was scolded by the people of the council! However, tell the councillors to eat! ”
Lucy thought that the president would severely criticize these guild members who were in trouble, but she didn't expect Makarov's painting style to change and burn the materials in his hand and throw them out.
Natsu, who got up from the ground, saw the burning material, and the desire for the flame made him jump instinctively, and he ate the information wrapped in the flames, and burped when he landed on the ground.
"Listen, the power of transcendence comes from the idea of perseverance! Magic is not a miraculous power, but a magic that exists within us! When it is fused with the magic of the natural world, the capital is manifested as a concrete force.
This is through mental power and concentration. No! This magic can only be formed by infusing all the soul power of oneself. If the teacher cares about the eyes of the high-ranking people, he will not be able to refine his own demonic path.
Don't be afraid of the council guys, go the way you believe in! This is the sorcerer of our fairy tail! ”
President Makarov's impassioned speech instantly aroused the enthusiasm of all the members of the guild, and they raised their index fingers and shouted.
Rick saw this and nodded subconsciously. I have to admire President Makarov's control of people's hearts.
After Makarov's speech, calm returned to the guild. When Mira hears that Lucy wants to join the guild, she takes her to the member registry to get her through the formalities.
Rick saw Makarov sitting at the bar, holding a wooden cup and leisurely drinking beer, so he got up and came to his side.
"Young man, if you want to join the guild, you should go to Mira."
Makarov glanced at Rick and felt the strange magic in him, his pupils shrank, and returned to normal. After reminding Rick that he wanted to join the club, he went to Mira's side and continued to drink the beer in his glass.
"Hello, President Makarov, I'm not here to join. I'm trying to buy the house next to your guild. I don't know if you agree. ”
Rick smiled slightly, not paying any attention to Makarov's rude behavior.
"Oh? You're the stranger Mira mentioned who wants to buy my house! Don't sell! ”
When Makarov heard that Rick was the one who wanted to buy his house, he put down his glass with a little interest and looked at Rick with an uninhibited smile.
"Well, Chairman Makarov, there's an idle house sign outside that house of yours. You don't need that house either. And if you didn't want to sell it, you probably wouldn't have set up that wooden sign. ”
Seeing that the little old man rejected himself cleanly, Rick was very unhappy in his heart, so he directly pointed out that the other party had the intention of selling the house.
"Don't sell it, don't sell it, I don't want to sell it now!"
"10 million!"
"Not for sale!"
"15 million!"
“......”
"20 million!"
"Deal!"
"Okay, you bad old man, treat me as a wronged man, right?!"
Rick didn't expect that the high-spirited and iron-clad old man in front of him was also the master of money. But Rick doesn't care about the amount of money. As soon as he came to the Demon Tail World, he destroyed two bandit gangs and looted no less than 100 million dollars from their bases.
"Hahaha, of course you have to prepare a coffin book for yourself when you are old. Young man, you have to buy my house, but I didn't force you to buy it. You can't blame me! ”
Makarov didn't care about Rick's rude remarks, he laughed and wiped out the beer in his glass.
"Okay, since you've agreed. Then sign a contract with me. ”
Now that Makarov has agreed, Rick also decided not to bargain anymore, and directly took out a house purchase contract and 20 million money in front of Makarov, signaling the other party to hurry up and complete the transaction with him.
"Hmm... The house can be sold to you, but I have one more condition! ”
Makarov looked at the thick stack of money beside him, his eyes froze, he put down the wine glass in his hand, waved his hand at Rick and said.
"Well, President Makarov. You're going a little too far. ”
I thought I would be able to get the key to that house soon, but I didn't expect Makarov to still have the conditions. Rick was a little speechless, but there was nothing he could do about the old man in front of him.
I came into this world to sell Pandora's consoles, not to fight with them. So no matter how unhappy Makarov is, Rick has no other way but to silently write down this revenge in his heart and wait for time to revenge it later.
"Then I won't sell it!"
Makarov turned into a scoundrel and lifted the barrel that Kalian had drunk just now, poured another glass of beer into his wooden cup, and continued to gulp down.
"Well, what conditions do you say. As long as it's not excessive. I promise them all! ”
Although Makarov made Rick feel the urge to beat him, Rick, who was familiar with the plot of Demon Tail, knew that the strange old man in front of him was an out-and-out good person.
