When everything was ready, Kira and the others set sail on their way to the Albarez Empire.

In addition to himself, he was accompanied by Makarov, Presitto, Mebis, Dispel, Selene, Kurnuki, Gerald, Urrutia, Silver, a total of ten people.

Volod did not have peers, this was proposed by himself.

There are many reasons, such as Volod is already old and not very capable of fighting, so it makes little sense to go; For example, for Ishgar, the 'Four Heavenly Kings' on the bright side cannot be moved lightly.

Of course, there is one more important reason: although the probability is very small, if the negotiation fails in the end, someone needs to inform the guild of the whereabouts and purpose of Kira and the others, and if war breaks out later, it needs someone of sufficient weight to maneuver between the Senate, the Ten Saint Magi, the Fiore royal family, and the 'Fairy Tail'.

And the best person to do these things is Volod.

Gildas was also forcibly left behind by Makarov, and as for how to persuade him, it was nothing more than using the words "If the negotiation fails, the future guild will need you to lead", which made Gildas hate to replace Kira.

It's a pity that Kira now not only has the most information, but her strength is not inferior to Gildas, and the competition a few days ago has already separated the two of them, so Gildas can't grab this travel place at all.

"Really...... Just leave me out like that, what do you look like......"

Fairy Tail Guild, on the second floor, in a spacious room, Gildas sat alone on the couch, muttering from time to time while drinking sullen wine.

He felt abandoned.

[As an adult, you should stand up and shelter the children].

Makarov's words are still in his ears, but now that the danger has come, he has not fulfilled his responsibilities and stayed in the guild to watch the house, which makes Gildas feel both helpless and frustrated.

"But...... This group of guys really can't be left alone, if Kira stays, it would be nice to go with me......"

Suddenly, with a bang, a familiar figure broke through the door.

"Gildas! Do you know where the president goes? I can't find him anywhere! ”

"Elusa?!"

Gildas's hand shook, and the drink in his glass almost spilled.

It was Elusa who came, and she strode up to Gildath with a vigorous movement: "I can't find Kira in the Hope Hut, and Presitto and Volod are gone......"

She babbled, her originally extremely bright eyes, which vaguely revealed an imperceptible solemnity and panic at this time, as if she had guessed something in her heart.

What a whimsical guy......

Thinking of Makarov's advice before leaving, Gildas could only hide his whereabouts for them: "President, they have gone to Sirius Island......

"Sirius Island?!" Elusa was stunned, and then suddenly remembered that she had indeed heard of this a few days ago.

Gildas pretended to be nothing, and didn't blink his eyes when he said that he was panicked: "That's right, it's Sirius Island!" You also know that Preshito and Volod's predecessors are old friends who founded the guild with the first generation, right? They just went to catch up with the first undead, and then they went to visit some old friends......"

"Old friends? With Kira? ”

"I don't know, don't ask me!"

When it comes to cheating girls, Gildas is a professional!

The key thing is still half-true, because Kira and the others did go to Sirius Island, but they came back, and then went out again.

It was seven days ago to go to Sirius Island, and after quietly returning from Sirius Island, several people first went to the basement of the original guild to 'resurrect' Mebis, and then pulled a helper, it took a total of two days, and now it has been several days since departure.

"Really? I always felt that something was wrong......"

Elusa frowned and looked suspiciously at Gildas in front of her, the woman's instinct telling her that the man in front of her was lying.

Seeing that the atmosphere between the two was gradually embarrassing, Gildas could only stubbornly continue: "It's true! A lot of people know about this, and Laxus should know it too......"

What's going on with this kind of look that you have to raise a knife to slash people if you don't say it right?! I feel like my back is starting to sweat......

At that moment, Laxus suddenly walked in, wearing a knee-length, glittering black plush coat over his shoulders, and took dragging steps, as if he were the boss.

"Don't talk about me! I don't know anything like that! ”

Behind him, followed by Mira and Kana, the trio rushed in and sat down beside Gildas.

"Is the disappearance of the president and Kira at the same time related to the aforementioned Albarez Empire?"

"Could it be that they have already gone to the Western Continent to find out the news?!"

"With their character, it's quite possible!"

"Hey...... I said they were going...... Ay! Never mind! Anyway, I can't hide this kind of thing from you. ”

Gildas was helpless: these little guys have grown up, and they are no longer as stupid as before, and they are not easy to deceive......

Although Kira and his party left quietly and did not inform their companions except for Gildath, since they had a meeting before, Laxus, Elusa and the others quickly guessed where they were going.

"We can't let them go into danger alone, we have to pick them up!!"

"That's right, that's right! Anyway, it's too much to leave without a sound! We're a family!! ”

Elusa and the others completely regarded Gildas as air, and discussed it on their own, one by one, the more they talked, the more excited they became, and after paving the way for a long time, they came to an unexpected result.

"I knew it would be like this...... Gildas helplessly held his forehead, and when he heard the end, he directly reached out and slapped it on the table, interrupting the conversation of several people: "I said you guys, give me a little quiet!" ”

"It's not just the president and Kira who went to the Albarez Empire this time, they are numerous and strong enough to take charge on their own, and their safety is guaranteed, otherwise I wouldn't agree to stay......"

"Your task is to keep me in the guild and not go anywhere!!"

Gildas showed a rare seriousness on his face, and his resolute tone directly silenced several people, and his mood was depressed for a while.

"I see!"

"Laxus?!"

Several people looked at Laxus in amazement, obviously not expecting him to compromise so quickly.

Unexpectedly, Laxus continued: "But since you said that their safety is guaranteed, then we must know who they are and what arrangements will be made after arriving in the Western Continent, right?" ”

Elusa glanced at Laxus, as if she knew what the other was trying to do.

"Well...... OK! ”

Gildas lowered his head and thought about it, anyway, the president didn't say that he had to hide it, so it didn't seem impossible to tell them? And as long as they know the strength of those people, how many of them should be able to stay in the guild with peace of mind? Sure enough, Laxus is a little more mature in comparison!

Thinking of this, Gil Duston's chest was full of certainty, and he couldn't help but smile with relief on his face.

……

An hour later, the port of Harugion.

Laxus was in high spirits and took the Thor on the prepared ship: "Since you don't take us, we'll go by ourselves!" ”

"It's Laxus!!" Fillid touted as usual, and the whole person was immersed in the domineering charm of Laxus.

And then......

"Yo, Laxus!"

"It's finally here, you're so slow!"

On the boat they were preparing for, Elusa was playing with her sword, Natsu and Harpy were playing, Gray was basking in the sun with her upper body bare, and Lucy, Wendy, and Charlulu were sitting obediently.

"Poof——!!!

The unexpected appearance of the person surprised Laxus, and then a roar came out of his throat, "Why are you guys here?!" ”

Elusa said lightly, "From the time you inquired about the president's arrangement, I guessed what you were going to do...... Hurry up, don't grind! ”

The bruises on Laxus's forehead burst out, and he couldn't help but clench his fists: "You dead woman...... Whose ship do you think this is?!! ”
