Magic Council - Fiore Branch.
Zorn and the humanoid toads also appeared in the long corridor at this moment.
Just then, they saw the Blue-Haired Young Man leaning against a pillar, looking at Zorn with a smile.
The toad saw that the Council Member, Siegrain, who also held the title of Ten Wizard Saints, was waiting there, and was so frightened that he lay down on the ground.
"Nice to meet you, Siegrain!"
"Oh, really? I don't think this is our first meeting, after all..." Zorn casually put his hands on his hips, not finishing his sentence, and then teased, "Besides, you're not here waiting for me, are you? You're waiting for Erza, aren't you?"
"After all, Erza and I were indeed 'friends' before, and what do you know?" Siegrain was only being unfriendly to him because Zorn had only heard Erza mention him.
But what he didn't know was that Zorn knew far more than he imagined.
"I really helped you a lot this time, and I spoke well of you Fairy Tail, so there's no need to be so hostile towards me." Zeklayin was also trying to ease the tension.
"Thank you so much!" Zorn didn't believe what Siegrain moment. Although he eventually realized his mistake, doing something wrong is still doing something wrong, and no matter what happens afterward, it can only be made up for.
"One thing to note is that those old men inside are also afraid of being implicated and held accountable in this matter, so they're looking for a scapegoat."
"Then that's settled. I'll wait for you inside." After saying this to Zorn, Siegrain disappeared from the spot.
"Erza, I hope you won't tell Zorn what you didn't say."
Siegrain was still hoping for something at the gate, he didn't let it slip out.
The Courtroom scene.
"Zorn, what brings you here?"
The Council Member stared in shock at Zorn, who stood in his seat below.
"Some of you are really only good at superficial work! You've neglected quite a few things that you should be in charge of." Zorn spoke bluntly and without any mercy. As soon as he said this, the expressions of some of the Council Member in high positions froze, and the Courtroom immediately fell silent.
Only a few people who were indifferent watched this scene with smiles on their faces.
"Bang~"
One of the Council Member slammed his fist on the table and stood up. "Zorn, what do you mean by this? Don't think that just because you're one of the Ten Wizard Saints you can act like this. You were given that title by the Magic Council."
"Boom~"
"Oh!" Upon hearing this, Zorn, Council Member still showed no remorse, unleashed a torrent of Magic Power, filling the entire Courtroom with a terrifying aura that made even the jurors feel suffocated.
Everything around Zorn shattered instantly, floating in the air as Magic Power surged.
The Council Member opposite him stared at Zorn in shock, especially Ultear was also looking at Zorn intently. The Council Member had been shouting just moments before was now so frightened that he sat down in his chair, struggling to withstand Zorn's pressure.
"Now do you think I got this title?" Zorn looked up at the Council Member who was already sweating profusely.
"Enough, Zorn!" the Chairman shouted. Seeing this, Zorn also took the opportunity to back down and withdrew his Magic Power.
The clamoring Council Member finally breathed a sigh of relief and slumped down.
My suggestion:
"First, severely punish the Council Member failed to properly supervise the process."
"Secondly, compensation should be provided to all those affected by this incident."
"Third, intensify the crackdown on the Dark Guilds."
Who agrees, and who disagrees?
"This..." The Council Member exchanged glances, unsure of what to do.
Zorn did not urge them, allowing them a moment to consider.
"Well, I think these opinions are quite reasonable, and they should be the choices our Magic Council should make, shouldn't they?" Siegrain first affirmed Zorn's opinion.
"Yes, yes, that's right, it should have been done a long time ago," Yajima the second to agree.
Agreed!
Aside from the Council Member who made the mistake, the other Council Member also expressed their agreement, whether due to pressure from Zorn's power is unknown.
"Then this matter is settled. As for the charge of negligence, that will be decided separately. Zorn will be responsible for the damage caused to the site. Is that alright?"
Seeing that things had developed to this point, and that nearly half of the Council Member Chairman no choice but to agree as well.
"No problem, Chairman."
"This is a one-time exception, Zorn." The Chairman gave Zorn a deep look, then brought down the gavel, sealing the matter.
--Separator--
On the Fairy Tail side... the battle is also nearing its end.
Every attack Natsu launched was blocked by Erza. To outsiders, the fight seemed evenly matched, but the Fairy Tail members knew that Natsu was about to lose, because Natsu breathing had become erratic.
"The Fire Dragon's Sword Horn"
After being punched away by Erza high in the air, Natsu stomped his foot on the ground, pushed off forcefully, and his whole body surged with flames as he spun rapidly toward Erza.
Erza immediately blocked Natsu's attack with both fists. Just as Natsu was exhausted, Erza punched Natsu in the abdomen, slamming Natsu to the ground.
"So strong!" Lucy was also impressed by Erza's strength, who wasn't even out of breath.
"Of course! This is Erza, one of the six S-Class Mages in the Fairy Tail."
"The victor Erza."
"Oh!"
Natsu failed his challenge again, haha.
"Let's go back to the Fairy Tail."
As the battle ended, the crowd slowly dispersed.
"Natsu, DIY tape"
Happy, however, worriedly pulled Natsu up and slowly carried Natsu as they flew towards the Fairy Tail.
Zorn was also waiting for everyone at the Fairy Tail; he had returned just as the two were finishing up.
The crowd was also excitedly discussing the exciting battle that had just taken place.
Lucy, Cana, Levy, and Erza, being the girls, huddled together discussing private matters. Cana even shooed Zorn away, preventing him from getting close.
So I sat down at the bar with the Guild Master and we had a few drinks together.
"Everything's been resolved, right? No surprises, right?" The Guild Master suddenly put down his wine glass and asked Zorn.
"Yes, don't worry, Grandpa, it's all taken care of."
Zorn smiled faintly, inwardly sighing, realizing he couldn't hide anything from the Guild Master.
"That's good, but I'm a little sleepy now!" The Guild Master said, then started yawning. Lisanna was the first to fall asleep, and just as she was about to collapse, Elfman pounced on her and caught her in his arms.
However, Elfman couldn't resist sleepiness and fell asleep as well.
The Fairy Tail members collapsed amidst a chorus of questions.
Cana and Erza managed to hold out, but under the intense Sleep Magic, they finally succumbed after seeing the blurry figures.
Zorn also gently scooped up Cana and pulled her into his arms, looking up at Mystogan, who was still wrapped up tightly as before.
"Haven't seen you for a long time"
"Okay, Guild Master, you'll take this mission."
"Sigh, still so aloof, Mystogan. Haven't you noticed there are other people in the Fairy Tail from the same world as you?"
Zorn pointed to Lisanna, who was lying on Elfman.
"Oh, really? I'm at ease with her in the Fairy Tail, and it'll be quick."
I'm leaving now.
"5 4 3 2 1" The moment Mystogan stepped out of the Fairy Tail, the Sleep Magic was instantly dispelled.
