Chapter 414: Searching for the Dragon
"Uh... ...using a dragon...as a mount...?"
Kira 's answer stunned everyone at the same time, but he said it as if it was just a casual remark: "Yeah, it sounds cool, right?! What else can you do? Eating dragon meat will make you crazy!"
"You are truly worthy of me!"
Erza looked excited: "Dragon Knight? It seems very interesting!"
"It's decided! I'm going to find a dragon as a mount too!! I'm excited!!"
"Don't you already have a harpy?"
"Then don't you also have a magic airship?"
"How can an airship and a dragon be the same?"
"Then harpies and dragons are different too!"
"Aren't they all companions to you?"
Now Natsu was speechless, and squinted his eyes in distress and said: "Well... this... but it's still different, right?"
Happy nodded cooperatively: "Yeah! Yeah! It's different!"
"Really? Do you guys know what kind of impact it would have if you had a dragon as a mount?"
Natsu looked confused, "Um...what's the impact?"
"I'll become a famous person, right?" Habib said excitedly, "The kind where people will ask for my autograph when I walk on the street! Maybe someone will treat me to fish every day."
"Ahh~ That will be very tiring~ But if I can have a dragon, it doesn't matter if I'm a little tired..."
"Natsu, Happy, Erza's point is that if we bring a dragon, it will attract Acnorolia!"
Seeing that Natsu, Happy, and even Kira didn't understand what she meant, Erza sighed and said, "Uh... I actually wanted to say that it would cause trouble to the citizens and the president... But now it seems that there is one more thing."
"What's the problem?! If there are dragons, Magnolia will definitely become one of the most prosperous cities in Fiore, right?" Kira waved his hand disdainfully, immersed in his perfect plan for the future. "Then we can build a huge zoo, charge admission to tourists, and provide services such as 'touch', 'kiss', 'ride', and 'chat' with dragons. I guarantee we'll make a lot of money!!"
Lucy Gray complained helplessly: "I say, what do you think of dragons?"
"opponent!"
“Mount!”
"Cash cow!"
Just as the three were answering, a violent, huge, familiar yet unfamiliar magical fluctuation suddenly came from the distant mountains. Everyone was startled and their eyes widened unconsciously!
Kira was the first to react: "This type of magic... is a dragon!! Judging from the direction, it's in the mountains. We came to the right place this time!"
Before he could finish his sentence, there was another long, earth-shattering sound. The entire mountain seemed to come alive, with terrifying noises coming out continuously. Soon, a strong wind blew from afar, carrying with it a strong or weak smell, hitting everyone's face.
Natsu sniffed the air hard and said seriously, "Although it's very faint, there is indeed the smell of dragon in the wind!"
Wendy closed her eyes and felt the message of the wind, listening carefully to the sound of the wind. After a moment, she opened her eyes and said to everyone, "This mountain range seems to be the territory of a dragon, and the dragon is fighting with people now!"
Kira was surprised by the girl's action: "Wendy, can you communicate with the wind to this extent now?"
Isn't this too much? Does the current support have to work as a scout? Kira originally thought that it was ridiculous that the Heavenly Attribute Dragon Slayer Magic could use additional magic, so how come it can even talk to the wind now?
What Kira didn't know was that after entering Dragon Power last year, Wendy's affinity for wind increased significantly. Not long ago, she learned two dragon-slaying techniques from Grandine from Pelusica, "Sky Pierce" and "Galaxy". Now, not only is her combat skills in the second tier of the guild, but she can also use other magic with ease.
Hearing Kira's genuine surprise and praise, Wendy immediately lowered her head shyly and said modestly: "I can only read simple information!"
Xia Lulu was speechless after watching this scene, and couldn't help but teach: "I say, you should be a little more confident in yourself!"
"That dragon is fighting someone... who could it be?"
"It should be Diabolos' wizards, right? They are the only ones who dare to do this and can do this."
"It's useless to think too much here . Let's go over and check it out!" Kira took out a flying carpet from his personal space, threw it on the ground, spread it out, and walked on it, "Get on the carpet!"
Three minutes later, the flying carpet brought several people into the mountains. The unknown movement continued, sometimes it shook like blood bursting and pulse beating, sometimes it was like a landslide and the sea tide pouring back. The manic magic power pulled everyone's heart; when it stopped, it was silent again, and the magic power continued to climb and rise, brewing the next attack.
"Even if they are fighting, this dragon is a little too aggressive, isn't it? It's not spring now!"
Kira felt the fluctuations of magic power and the movement of the mountain in the distance, and complained, "Wendy, are you sure what the wind elf told you about was a battle? Seriously?"
However, Wendy obviously didn't understand what Kira meant: "Huh? Is there any such thing as a serious battle? What is a wind spirit?"
"Sylphs are wind spirits, just like fire spirits and water spirits."
"So, do such things as elves really exist?"
Kira lied seriously, "Of course! They are creatures like 'fairies'. Aren't they all in the books? They are probably only the size of a finger, can use all kinds of magic, and most of them are very good at household magic. They will also come to help their owners when they are having difficulties in life, fail in love, or are bullied by other children. They are good partners for humans. But they have some shortcomings, such as loving to eat snacks..."
Wendy believed it, and her eyes lit up as she listened. She couldn't help but ask, "Huh?! Really? Kilasan knows so much! Which book did he write that in?"
"A book of fairy tales."
Wendy was petrified instantly.
"Isn't that just a lie to children?"
The conversation between the two caused the complaining queen Lucy to complain again. Natsu and Happy, who had been listening silently, were also dumbfounded and exclaimed at the same time: "Is it fake?"
Lucy was even more incredulous than them: "You two actually believed it too?!"
"Isn't it normal that they would believe it?"
“That’s true…”
The conversation of several people did not affect Erza. She looked straight at the direction where the magic power came from, with a serious face, and murmured softly: "How strange..."
"What's wrong, Erza?"
"Wendy just said that the dragon was fighting with humans, right? If it was fighting and making such a big noise, why did I only feel a surge of magic power?"
Kira thought about it and speculated: "Maybe they are fighting against treasure hunters or alchemists? The top fighters on this continent are not simple! In addition to the Diabolos guild leader Jorg Lessen mentioned before, I heard that in the alchemy guild Golden Owl, there are also three strong men who are not weaker than the Holy Ten!"
Erza glanced at Kira curiously: "This is the first time I've heard you say the word 'I heard' so seriously."
"Yes, because I know very little information about this continent."
Several people were instantly moved. You know, Kira has always been very confident in his intelligence. He even knew about 'Diabolos', but he didn't know this?
"Why are you looking at me like that? They're not wizards, so why should I ask so many questions? It's enough for me to have a basic understanding of their strength!"
"To what extent did you say 'not weaker than the Holy Ten'?"
Kira answered bluntly: "It's a level higher!"
"On the same level?"
"Let me tell you this. Before I became one of the 'Holy Ten', Serena, who was at the top of the 'Holy Ten', could beat the other nine by herself, and they were stronger than Serena!"
"What?!" Kira's answer immediately made everyone exclaim loudly, "Are alchemists so strong?"
"Yes! 'I heard', it is that strong!!!"
