At night, except for the members who took the task and went out to work, everyone else had worked for a day and set up tents in the open space behind the construction site to rest.
The only ones who haven't rested yet are President Makarov, Ke Wen, and Mira.
President Makarov ran off somewhere, while Ke Wen sat behind the bar and sifted through numerous task lists, classified various types of tasks, and entered them into the 'Fairy Terminal'.
As for Mira, she was running back and forth, moving drinks and food to the temporary bar, and preparing supplies for tomorrow in advance.
At this moment, there was a noise on the magic fax machine, and soon, several pages of paper were automatically printed.
Mira walked over and picked up the paper, then came back and handed it to Ke Wen.
Kewen looked down and couldn't help but shook his head helplessly, and said to the curious Mira, "Erza and the others have completed their mission."
"Ah, so fast?" Mira covered her mouth softly and chuckled. "It seems that they are worthy of being the strongest team. In just one afternoon, they completed the crusade mission."
Kewen smiled and sighed, shook his head and said, "They came back directly without using the 'teleportation scroll'. Can't you guess the reason?"
Mira was stunned for a moment, then looked at the fax in Ke Wen's hand.
Seeing this, Ke Wen handed a few pages of fax in his hand to Mira, and said with a smile, "Obviously, those guys have caused trouble outside again, and they are probably dealing with the issue of compensation. Go, find the old man, and get this
Give him the letter of accountability from the 'Council'."
Mira covered her mouth and chuckled, then walked out of the bar to look for President Makarov.
At the same time, on the top of a construction frame outside, President Makarov was sitting cross-legged on the edge of the crossbar, inviting Yue to taste beer.
After taking a sip of beer, President Makarov made a pleasant sound of "poof".
Putting down the wine glass, he looked up at the crescent moon and murmured softly, "Retire...?"
Thinking of the reminders given to him by several old friends when he was in the 'Council', President Makarov murmured a little belatedly, "That's right... The guild is about to get a new look. In that case, the leader should also be replaced.
…”
Thinking about one candidate after another in his mind, temporarily putting aside the most suitable Kovin, President Makarov thought of his grandson Laxus.
However, thinking of Laxus' current state of mind, he immediately shook his head and eliminated him as a candidate.
Thinking of Gildarts again, but also thinking of his prodigal character, President Makarov could only exclude him.
As for Mistergang, not only is his identity a problem, but his character is also a complete boring gourd.
Mira is so gentle, and over the past few years, her personality has become completely fixed.
Finally, there's Erza.
However, although Erza is quite sensible and understands things better than others, she often seems too old-fashioned and has a big problem with flexibility.
In this way, after much calculation, the most suitable candidate is still Kewen.
but……
With a somewhat helpless sigh, President Makarov muttered in a slightly distressed voice, "That kid Kevin... is a bit murderous... I can't get the sand out of my eyes."
Lifting the glass and taking another sip, President Makarov played with the glass while looking up at the crescent moon and said, "If the guild is handed over to his hands, although it will not cause everyone to suffer, it will make the guild change in the outside world."
We have to get tougher and tougher... In the end, I'm afraid it will make the guild become aloof and lonely..."
At this time, Mira's voice sounded from below: "President Father, it turns out you are here."
"Huh?" President Makarov leaned over and looked at Mira below and asked, "What's wrong, little Mira? What's the matter?"
Mira smiled and raised the 'accountability book' in her hand, and said at the same time, "They seem to have caused trouble again."
"Who is it this time?" President Makarov asked subconsciously.
"It's Erza's team." Mira replied in a cheerful voice, "They accidentally destroyed half of the street during their crusade mission."
"The Council sent a fax, asking Dad to submit a letter of apology and a fine as soon as possible~ Eh? Dad, what's wrong with you?"
President Makarov seemed to have lost his soul at this time, his whole body was stiff, and his expression was sad and pitiful.
His body trembled for a long time, and President Makarov couldn't help but raise his head and howl out, "How can I retire with peace of mind?"
Inside the temporary bar, Ke Wen couldn't help but be startled after hearing the miserable howl.
He raised his head and looked in the direction of the sound, and then he couldn't help laughing.
Retirement? The old man’s thinking is too simple. In this life, he will never retire from the position of president...
…
Because manpower is needed to quickly complete those time-limited tasks to avoid tarnishing the guild's reputation.
Therefore, Ke Wen estimated the strength of the members in the guild and forced them to send most of them out to work.
Although the backlog of tasks has been temporarily relieved, the construction speed of new guilds has slowed down.
In the blink of an eye, more than half a month has passed, and the guild has completely completed the construction of the walls and roof, turning it into a small castle-like building like a rough house, only needing to be carefully decorated.
On this day, Kewen was using the calculation function of the ‘terminal’ behind the bar to write calculations.
Suddenly there was a sound of "empty", causing him to shift his gaze and look over.
But it was Lucy who came to the bar. Since there were no chairs arranged yet, the girl brought an empty wine barrel to serve as a seat.
After putting down the wine barrel and taking a seat, Lucy looked weak and slumped her entire upper body on the bar while sighing in distress.
"What's wrong Lucy?" Mira put down the account list of food and wine in her hand and asked Lucy with a smile, "Why do you look so lethargic? Are you worried about something?"
"Do you even need to ask?" Ke Wen interrupted with a smile, "One word, poor."
"Don't expose my scar!" Lucy's pretty face turned red instantly, and she slapped the table and said shyly, "Such a thing! It would make me feel very embarrassed if it were said by someone other than myself!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Uh-huh..." Mira covered her mouth and let out a soft chuckle, then said, "How could this happen? Haven't you been doing tasks during this time?
?”
"Speaking of this..." Lucy pursed her lips and made a pitiful look, pretending to sob as she said, "It's not like Natsu and Gray, even if they get a job with a higher salary, it will still be because of them.
The two of them always destroy things, which ultimately cuts most of the reward into half."
Covering her forehead helplessly, Lucy sighed and said, "In the end, we have to share it equally among the five of us. The commission money we can get in the end is just enough for the usual meal expenses. My rent this month has not been affected at all."
Well...well, I'm so pitiful..."
The sound of the cup rubbing against the table surface was heard.
Ke Wen slid a glass of juice in front of Lucy, smiled at the slightly stunned girl, "Seeing how pitiful you are, here, I'll treat you to a drink."
Lucy originally wanted to express her gratitude politely, but after seeing the smile on Ke Wen's face, she couldn't help but feel depressed for a moment, and shouted with sharp teeth, "Hey! Take the gloating away from your face!"
"Pfft! Hahaha..."
Mira failed to suppress her laughter again. After laughing, she quickly helped Lucy and said softly to Ke Wen, "Really, don't tease little Lucy."
"Oh!" Lucy stood across the table, threw herself into Mira's huge softness, and said with a cry, "Mila is still the gentlest, give me a hug."
"Oh no~" Mira folded her arms gently, and while holding Lucy, she turned to Ke Wen and said, "Help little Lucy, help her think of a way."
"Fine."
Ke Wen stopped joking, waved his hand to cancel the calculation program on the magic screen, and called up the task program.
After searching for a moment among the many tasks, Ke Wen's eyes suddenly stopped on a commission.
That was a mission related to the 'Immortal Flower Village', which is located not far to the west of the town where the guild is located.
The reason why I stayed on this mission is because it is related to the original plot.
Seeing this mission reminded Coven of 'Loki', that is, Leo.
Although because the guild has the benefit of "mana potion", Leo is not as weak as in the original plot.
But for Leo's problem, Kewen felt that it would be better to solve it as soon as possible.
Thinking of this, he immediately pushed the magic screen in front of Lucy, pointed at the task and said, "That's it."
"Another subjugation mission?" After reading it, Lucy couldn't help but said helplessly, "What kind of help is this? As long as there is a mission that requires combat, Natsu and Gray will definitely cause damage..."
"This mission is different." Ke Wen pointed to the mission description, "Look carefully, this mission to defeat the bandit group requires you to go to the bandit group's lair to fight."
Lucy re-read the instructions carefully, her eyes immediately lit up, and she cheered in a low voice, "Great! The thieves' lair is outside the village! This way there is no need to worry about causing damage!"
"That's right." Ke Wen said with a smile, "Even if you completely destroy the den of thieves, no one will ask you for compensation. How about it? Do you want to register?"
"Yes, yes!" Lucy nodded repeatedly, "That's it for this mission! Coven, just register for me! I'll go find Natsu and the others right now!"
"Go ahead." Ke Wen pulled the magic screen back in front of him. "I will register the mission for you right now. Later, I will upload the information about the thieves group to the database of the 'Fairy Terminal' for you to do."
Please check anytime during the mission.”
"So reliable!" Lucy jumped off the barrel and hurried away outside. She turned back and waved to Ke Wen and Mira. "Thank you! Mira-chan, Ke Wen, I'm leaving."
"Be careful on the road~" Mira waved with a smile.
Ke Wen took out a bottle of "lychee" juice from his pocket, expanded the inside and filled the ten-liter juice bottle with magic and quickly sent it to Lucy.
"Please give me some beauty treatment."
"Thanks~" Lucy took the bottle and walked briskly out of the doorway where the door had not yet been installed...
