"Alright, you can all go back now. Don't go out until this is completely over, and be ready to be summoned at any time."
Seeing that Rabbit Maru was so honest and cooperative, Dekelis nodded in satisfaction and then said to the four of them.
As the four people involved in this matter, they will definitely be summoned later. DeKalis could have taken them all back with him, but considering that Makarov was willing to take the "responsibility" voluntarily, he let them go back to wait for the summons.
Therefore, no matter when or what the situation, being willing to spend more money will definitely have some effect; money makes the world go round.
"Okay, we will definitely cooperate with the investigation."
Makarov nodded and said that Moen would cooperate with the Magic Council. He also nudged Laxus, who was looking indignant, silencing him who was about to retort.
You can complain about someone in private, but you have to save face for them in front of them. If you embarrass them, they might retaliate, and then Grandpa Makarov will get scolded again.
Since Fairy Tail cannot escape the control of the Magic Council, managing their relationship with these members of the Magic Council well can bring them a lot of convenience and minimize trouble.
With Dekellis's permission, Moen and his group of four were able to leave. However, when they left, there were no longer just four people, but five, with a little one joining them.
"Gajeel, don't be afraid. We're comrades now, aren't we?"
Looking at Gajeel, who was cowering and far away from him, Moen spoke with a smile, but his words were obviously of no use.
Gajeel gave Moen an ugly smile, but showed no intention of moving closer to him.
Gagiru was invited to join by Makarov.
Makarov was very concerned about the child who used "Dragon Slayer Magic." He felt that the child would definitely be corrupted by the Phantom Lords, so he earnestly tried to persuade Gajeel to go with them.
The old man's passive ability to love talent and pick up children has been triggered again, only this time he picked them up from someone else's guild.
Gajeel was initially reluctant because he had a psychological trauma from Moen, but Makarov's words eventually moved him.
"In Phantom Lord, you could never defeat Moon, but in Fairy Tail, you might grow to the point where you can defeat Moon, because I am much stronger than Joseph Paula. What he couldn't do, I might be able to do as well."
Makarov's words struck a chord with Gajeel. Whether it was bragging or not, they were undeniably captivating.
Gajeel's only goal now is to defeat Moen, dispel the fear that haunts him, and avenge his previous defeat.
But Joseph Pora, the strongest leader of the Spectre Masters, has now been defeated by the combination of Moen and Laxus.
How can he defeat Moen by following Joseph Paula?
There is absolutely no hope in sight.
Therefore, Gajeel ultimately decided to join Fairy Tail, hoping to become stronger under Makarov's guidance and become even more powerful than Moon.
Of course, Usagi-maru's persuasion also had some effect; having an acquaintance with him made it easier for Gajeel to accept.
DeKalis turned a blind eye to this matter, and besides, poaching someone's talent isn't illegal.
Given the relationship between Phantom Lord and Fairy Tail, poaching each other's members is nothing to worry about; being able to poach them is a skill in itself!
Gajeel is clearly not used to the atmosphere of Fairy Tail yet. His fear of Moen is obvious. He is afraid that Moen will suddenly give him another injection.
This idea is outrageous, but it's quite normal in Phantom Lords, where the strong can bully the weak.
Gajeel can bully and boss around those weaker than him at will. If you're not used to it at first, you'll start to like it after you get a taste of it.
Makarov's decision to bring Gajeel away from the Phantom Lords has indeed saved him, preventing him from being led astray.
"What kind of meritocratic guild is this?"
Moen muttered a complaint, then glanced at Laxus.
Will the fate of Spectre have any impact on Laxus?
The Phantom Lords is a guild that truly operates on merit, where the strongest members wield immense influence.
"Such a guild has no cohesion. Once it encounters setbacks, it will basically fall apart immediately and will never be able to make a comeback. To put it bluntly, it is just Joseph Pola's one-man guild."
Makarov offered his insightful assessment, proving that the old man was indeed knowledgeable and insightful, directly pointing out the true nature of the Phantom Lord.
"This is a guild without a spiritual legacy."
Moen chimed in, saying that if the Spectre Ruler were to disband, no one would ever think of rebuilding it, and those who had actually worked and lived within it would have no attachment to it whatsoever.
"Although I really want to refute it, I don't know how."
Rabbit Maru listened from the side, and could only shake his head with a wry smile.
He also had to admit that what Chairman Makarov and Moen said was quite right.
"."
Gajeel didn't understand much; he only knew that when he left, he wasn't particularly reluctant to part or feel any nostalgia.
But isn't that how guilds are? Is there anything different?
The environment has a significant impact on a person, especially on children. Although Gajeel was originally a bit irritable, if he had received proper guidance, he wouldn't have become like this, but would have gradually learned to control himself.
He should be grateful that he had crossed paths with Fairy Tail early on, which led to Makarov inviting him to join the guild.
"."
Laxus listened silently.
Laxus frowned as Tutu and Gajeel recounted their story, but he didn't actually agree much with the Spectre's style.
Laxus wanted to create a guild full of elite, powerful individuals. He had no intention of keeping weak members in the guild, so naturally, there would be no instances of the strong bullying the weak.
The group of five returned to Magnolia City by car and went back to the Fairy Tail guild hall. Makarov immediately went to the account to withdraw the funds, which was the promised compensation. The sooner the funds arrived, the sooner the Magic Council members could start their work.
Of course, the Magic Council members had already started working on it a long time ago.
They still highly regarded Fairy Tail's reputation. Since Makarov had said he would fund the project, he certainly wouldn't renege on his promise. The old man was never ambiguous about such matters, especially since it involved many homeless people.
"President! How come we have to lose so much money just from going out?!"
Upon learning that Makarov had mobilized a large amount of funds, the "butler" Airo was stunned. He almost emptied the account of all the money he had painstakingly saved up over this period of time!
"It's all that Joseph Paula's fault!"
Makarov cursed Joseph Bora, saying that if the old man hadn't suddenly gone mad, they wouldn't have had to pay so much money.
"."
After learning what had happened, Airo sighed but didn't say anything more. They were indeed wronged this time, and the compensation was out of a sense of public duty and responsibility.
"If anyone gets into trouble again recently, we won't have enough money to pay for it."
Airo said worriedly, "Although the guild's funds will be replenished soon, it's rare to see such a shortage. Everyone in the guild really needs to be careful lately."
"Don't worry, Sister Airo, money is not a problem."
Moen, who was listening nearby, immediately spoke up. He said it with great confidence, saying that this is what it means to have money in your pocket.
In fact, the guild's normal expenses are more than enough. What Airo is worried about is that something like this will happen again. Sometimes, when there is such large-scale destruction, the "culprit" may not be able to come up with that much money to compensate at the moment. The guild will take care of it, and the "culprit" will slowly pay back the guild afterwards.
In a sense, the Fairy Tail guild is indeed a solid backing for its members to cause chaos everywhere.
No matter what happens, the guild will always cover for them. And because of Fairy Tail's status and Makarov's existence, most of the time the "culprits" just have to pay compensation and don't have to bear any other responsibility.
"I really need to emphasize this, so that everyone can pay attention and keep a low profile recently, and avoid causing any more big trouble."
Makarov nodded. Although Moen had money and could lend it to guild members who couldn't afford to pay, the evidence Dekelis had listed still touched him somewhat.
In just two months, they caused so much destruction, reportedly even more destructive than the Dark Guild.
Makarov rubbed his temples. While he was indeed indulging the children and supporting their all-out efforts in battle,
"We still have to give it our all."
After thinking it over, Makarov remained firm in his decision.
In contrast, for Makarov, the safety of his own children was certainly more important. He could only do his best to reduce the damage, such as moving the battlefield to open areas as much as possible, which would also reduce the risk of injuring others.
Makarov had actually emphasized these issues before, but with little effect. The guys in the guild weren't deliberately trying to cause trouble; they just couldn't stop once they started fighting.
"Should we call everyone together? Hold a general meeting?"
Moen looked at Grandpa Makarov and asked.
"Open! Open it tonight."
Makarov nodded; this matter definitely needed to be brought up.
"Okay, I'll go and inform everyone right away."
Moen nodded and immediately went to inform everyone. Informing everyone was very simple; Moen didn't need to run around. He just needed to shout in the guild and ask everyone to inform each other. At the same time, he also posted the notice on the bulletin board.
By evening, the Fairy Tail guild hall was packed with guild members from Magnolia.
Let me first introduce our two new members.
Makarov stood on the bar table and first called over Rabbit Maru and Gajeel, introducing them to everyone.
Everyone in the guild naturally knows these two.
Gajeel, needless to say, had a pretty good fight with Natsu before. He's the "Iron Dragon Slayer Mage" and his strength is not bad.
Although Gajeel was instantly killed by Moen, no one thought it was a big deal. After all, how many people could avoid being instantly killed by Moen?
"I am Gajeel, and I use Iron Dragon Slayer Magic. I hope to get along well with everyone. My goal is to defeat Moen and become the strongest mage in Fairy Tail!"
Gajeel's self-introduction was very passionate.
"Defeat me first!"
Natsu was yelling from below, immediately undermining Gajeel's efforts, which made Gajeel look over at Natsu, who was jumping around.
The two glared at each other, neither willing to concede. Gajeel's arrival gave Natsu another rival.
"I am Tutu Maru. I am planning to open a fire magic academy in the guild. Anyone who wants to learn can contact me to sign up."
After Gajeel finished his introduction, Usagi-maru continued.
Rabbit Maru's words immediately caused quite a stir, and all the fire magic users in the guild were tempted.
If we were to dismiss Gajeel's seemingly serious boasts as mere childish ramblings, we could simply laugh it off.
The fact that Usagi-maru, who has already proven himself by defeating Macao and demonstrated his superb fire magic abilities, is going to start teaching is something to pay close attention to. Usagi-maru's fire magic is so masterful that he is fully capable of teaching.
"Really? Rabbit Maru, are you really going to start teaching classes?"
Marcao was the first to step forward. Although he was a bit older than Usagi, he would definitely learn if Usagi was willing to teach him. Magic is all about skill, and he was indeed far inferior to Usagi in fire magic.
"Of course, Mr. Marcao, would you like to sign up?"
Rabbit Maru answered confidently that he didn't plan to go out on missions anymore and would make a living by teaching. With Fairy Tail as his backer, he should be able to attract more students.
His initial idea was to give a share of the tuition fees to the guild, so that he could openly use the guild's name and use the guild's facilities as classrooms.
Makarov refused to accept them. Makarov had only one request: that the apprentices who were learning from Usagi join Fairy Tail. Of course, he wanted as many as possible to join, but he couldn't force anyone to. If someone insisted on leaving, he didn't have to keep them.
Rabbit Maru naturally had no reason to refuse this.
He was originally a member of "Fairy Tail," and during the teaching process, he would naturally instill in his apprentices the benefits of joining "Fairy Tail" and the guild spirit of "Fairy Tail." He believed that in this way, no one could resist the temptation to join "Fairy Tail."
