However, Ke Wen only enjoyed the relief after the victory for a moment.
The magic of 'Fairy Law' consumed almost half of Kewen's magic power. After his body lost the blessing of many magic powers, Kewen's physique inevitably weakened slightly.
In addition, in the previous battle, the range of movements was too large on several occasions.
Therefore, many factors combined made Kewen completely unable to bear the severe pain in his entire body.
Lying weakly on the ground, Kewen's body kept shaking. Not only his nerves were in continuous severe pain, but his muscles all over his body were also twitching one after another as if they were cramping.
Fortunately, the pain was not as severe as during the 'Activation Ceremony', so Kewen could still endure it.
I gritted my teeth and persisted. After a while, the severe pain in my body gradually eased.
At this time, the huge magic power quickly approached, and not long after, President Makarov's small body appeared.
The whole body was supported by wind magic elements, flew in from the broken wall, and slowly landed next to Ke Wen.
Glancing around the entire broken hall, President Makarov sighed helplessly and asked softly, "Are you okay?"
"Old man..."
Ke Wen seemed weak and had no strength to stand up for the time being. He could only lie on the ground and reluctantly responded, "My condition is not caused by the battle, but because the sequelae of developing the 'second magic source' have not passed yet."
"What about you?" Ke Wen asked, "It seems that Mist Gang has helped you collect the magic power. How about it? Is there any future trouble?"
"Peace of mind." President Makarov said with a kind smile, "The magic power is back."
After responding, President Makarov bent forward and helped Kewen stand up.
Seeing this, Kewen quickly stopped and said, "Wait a minute!"
Amid President Makarov's doubts, Ke Wen smiled bitterly and said, "Don't touch me yet. At this moment, the nerves all over my body are still in severe pain. Let me calm down for a while."
Hearing this, President Makarov couldn't help showing a distressed look, and said in a self-blaming tone, "It's all because of my incompetence as a parent, and the children have suffered severely..."
"You did nothing wrong." Ke Wen comforted, "If you want to blame it, you can only blame the people of 'Ghost' for being too despicable."
President Makarov sighed again, and then sat cross-legged next to Ke Wen.
Turning his head, President Makarov looked at the setting sun outside through the broken wall.
After a moment of silence, he whispered, "This matter is very serious. Kewen, please remember that all accountability after the 'Committee' must be placed on me! Including the matter of Joseph Pola.
That’s right! You must remember it!”
Hearing this, Ke Wen opened his mouth and smiled, but the muscles on his face were involved, causing him to gasp suddenly.
After the severe pain subsided, he said to President Makarov who looked concerned, "Don't worry, old man, this matter is not as serious as you think."
"No." President Makarov shook his head. "The war between the two guilds is already serious, not to mention the casualties. And Joseph Pola is..."
"Listen to me first."
Corwin didn't want to put too much burden on President Makarov, so he interrupted and explained, "In a few days, the 'Ghost' will be judged as a dark union by the 'Council'."
Immediately, Ke Wen briefly told the process of his trip to 'Karna Island'.
Finally, he concluded, "So, with Ulrudiya helping us operate it, even if someone comes to review it later, it will probably be just a formality."
After listening to Kewen's explanation, President Makarov opened his mouth and was speechless.
After a while, he smiled bitterly, shook his head and sighed, "This makes me, an old man who is holding me back, even more useless."
After hearing President Makarov's habit of speaking, Ke Wen knew that the pressure on the other party had been greatly relieved, and he couldn't help but grinned cautiously.
The pain in his body had reached a tolerable level, and Ke Wen slowly sat up.
"Speaking of which." Ke Wen continued to stand up and said, "Old man, this war is not a bad thing."
"Huh?" President Makarov also stood up and asked, "Why do you say that?"
"Because it can help everyone in the guild wake up. Let's go?"
Kewen wrapped the wind element around his body and greeted President Makarov.
After the two of them flew out of the broken wall, Ke Wen continued, "All along, everyone has been too smooth. Relying on the guild's increasingly powerful reputation in the outside world, everyone is not only interested in their own strength.
Laziness, even the mentality began to become arrogant."
While President Makarov nodded thoughtfully, Coven continued, "Although everyone did not show it in their usual words and attitudes, the damage they caused during the mission exposed their true mentality."
"You put it like that..." President Makarov thought for a while and couldn't help but nodded and said, "It seems to make sense."
"Yeah." Ke Wen nodded similarly, "Those of us who grew up in the guild only cause damage unconsciously because of our concentration. But those other people are different. They have some changes because of their mentality.
Unknowingly and recklessly.”
President Makarov's expression became serious and he asked in a deep voice, "So, you said that this war is not a bad thing?"
"Yes." Ke Wen looked at the distant coastline and said, "In this war, even those ghost soldiers can pose a serious threat to everyone. I think they should be able to wake up."
"It's hard to say." President Makarov shook his head and looked at Ke Wen, who was flying with him, in relief, and said, "Your victory over Joseph Pola will probably make them even more proud."
"It's all up to you, old man." Ke Wen smiled and shied away. "It's time for you to fulfill your responsibilities as the president. Remind everyone of the real situation and let everyone focus on themselves instead of sharing the pride from me."
"Well, I will!" President Makarov responded seriously.
"In addition..." Kewen started the topic again, "This war has also improved everyone's strength, which is also a good thing."
President Makarov nodded in agreement, with a pleased smile on his face.
Looking at the people on the coastline, President Makarov smiled and said, "That's right, I feel that the magic aura of Natsu, Elfman, and everyone else is different now."
, everyone’s magic power has generated stronger belief, but..."
Having said this, President Makarov turned to look at Coven again, and said with a slight hesitation, "Your magic power is even greater now, but I still don't feel the belief in your magic power."
"Faith..."
Ke Wen was silent for a moment, then shook his head, "Maybe it's because of my talent in learning that I haven't really realized it yet."
"I guess so." President Makarov said with some regret, "After all, it is not completely perfect."
"It's like you said, your powerful talent has shackled your beliefs."
"When you can truly put your faith and soul into magic in the future, your strength will improve by leaps and bounds."
The exchange between the two ended here, because they had already flown back to the coastline.
After landing, Kewen accepted everyone's celebrations for him, and then everyone cheered loudly because of the victory in the war.
Soon, Lisanna flew to the completely ruined Moving Castle and brought back Natsu, Elfman, and Gray.
After everyone gathered together, under the leadership of President Makarov, everyone gathered all the way back to the front of the guild.
However, the completely collapsed guild building caused everyone's relaxed demeanor to disappear.
Although they knew that both Coven and President Makarov could restore the guild, in any case, the guild was completely destroyed by those ghost soldiers who were unable to take care of it because of everyone's poor protection.
Ultimately, this is everyone's responsibility.
Therefore, everyone was a little embarrassed to face Ke Wen who was fighting against the 'Ten Holy Mages' in front, and they were also embarrassed to face Makarov, the president of the guild.
Amidst the gloomy atmosphere, President Makarov stood in front of everyone and looked at the collapsed guild building in silence for a moment.
He knew that the time had come, so he turned around with a serious face and issued a solemn instruction to everyone, instructing everyone to understand themselves again through this war.
In this atmosphere, President Makarov's words of instruction were carefully listened to by everyone, and a look of introspection appeared on everyone's face.
Seeing this, President Makarov suppressed the joy in his heart, turned his head slightly, and quickly looked at Ke Wen with a smile in his eyes.
At this time, Lucy came forward from the crowd, with tears in her eyes and a regretful look on her face, blaming herself to President Makarov, "I'm sorry...it's all because of me..."
"Don't look like that, little Lucy."
President Makarov returned to his usual demeanor, smiled, raised his head and said to Lucy, "Happy things, sad things, if you can't bear them all, just share them with everyone. This is the so-called guild leader."
family."
As tears welled up in Lucy's eyes, President Makarov raised his arm, stretching it like rubber.
After touching Lucy's head tenderly, President Makarov smiled kindly and said, "Personal happiness is everyone's happiness; personal sadness and indignation are also everyone's sadness and indignation. Your tears are also everyone's tears...
"
"There's no need to blame yourself."
Chairman Makarov turned his head and looked around at all the members, and continued with a pleased tone, "Everyone's thoughts should have been conveyed to you, raise your head, you are also a member of 'Fairy Tail'."
Hearing this, Lucy burst into tears. She no longer suppressed herself, let go of her emotions and cried loudly...
