Chapter 486: Identity Disguise
"Just pay it back...why are you yelling so loudly?"
After finally sending Silver away, Kira rubbed his ears and muttered in dissatisfaction, "He's obviously a robot, but he's also a guy who's obsessed with money!"
Wait... why did I say "also"? Oh, yes, there's also Disper! That guy is also a money-grubber! Why do I only have friends like him?
Soon, several people got off the boat one after another.
In full view of the crowd, Kira once again demonstrated his unfathomable skills and used space magic to take the ship away, which immediately shocked the spectators around him.
Albares is a magic empire. Almost every soldier is a magician. The proportion of magicians to the total population is far greater than that of the Kingdom of Fiore. The magical atmosphere is very strong.
In this case, even ordinary people who don't know magic are familiar with the rare magic of space.
"Was that space magic just now?"
"How much magic power does it take to be able to take a ship in?"
"Who is this super handsome guy? He's too strong!!"
A group of passers-by were whispering to each other and pointing at Kira and his group. Among them, many young and beautiful girls with slim figures were attracted by Kira's handsome face . Then, they didn't know what they thought of, their cheeks suddenly turned red and they squeezed their legs together.
Just then, an old man suddenly thought of something and exclaimed, "Wait! They came from overseas? Could it be for 'that'?"
"You mean the 'that' that's been making so much noise lately?"
“Maybe…”
…
On the street, ten people were walking in groups of three or four towards the most lively place in the city, and nineteen eyes were observing the customs and practices of the town.
If you ignore the incredible magic they displayed earlier, they look just like a family going on a trip together.
There are two grandfathers, Preshito and Makarov, Selene is a well-maintained noble lady, and the rest are grandchildren, including a pair of twins.
Makarov frowned and said in a deep voice: "At the same time, this coastal city seems to have a more magical atmosphere than Hargeon and Magnolia..."
Preshito looked calm. He had expected such a situation. "Of course. After all, almost everyone is practicing magic here!"
"Compared to this, is it really okay to demonstrate that level of magic in public like you did just now?"
Jellal, wearing his blue cloak and almost wrapping himself up tightly, asked in a low voice, "Since our main purpose is to gather intelligence, shouldn't we keep a low profile?"
It was clear that he still adhered to the traditional spy code.
"Huh! So skilled? It seems you haven't fallen behind at all?" Preshito complained without any curiosity.
Gerald was suddenly embarrassed and kept silent; Urutia trembled and hugged Kira tightly.
A few hours ago, when Urrutia saw Preshito at the dock, he was completely stunned. There was only one voice in his mind: Can anyone tell me why Lord Hades appeared here? ? ! !
At that moment, she felt her hands and feet go cold, and even the foundation she had put on early in the morning almost fell off.
Who can understand the feeling of working together with the boss who was betrayed by you?
Kira, you bastard! Why didn't you tell me this earlier? ! ! If I knew Hades was here, I would never have agreed to this operation! !
Fortunately, Preshito just looked at her quietly at that time, turned his head and stopped talking.
But during the next few hours of sailing, Urutia never dared to leave Kira's side, and everyone else almost thought that the two were secretly in love.
"What are you talking about? What information?" Silver looked at Gerard in confusion and said indifferently, "We are obviously merchants who come here to trade!"
“…”
Gerald: This scene seems familiar to me...
I remember that when I went to their 'Dragon Slayer Research Institute', Kira was like this. He made up an image of a team of adventurers who were accidentally lost (although it was useless in the end). Is it no wonder that they became friends?
Silver ignored the confused Jellal and started making up a story: "I was originally the heir to a famous armed consortium in a kingdom of Ishgar, but my family's business went bankrupt due to my father's poor management, so I, the young master, brought my family to the Western Continent to develop and decided to make a comeback here!"
"They are accompanied by two experienced butlers (Preshito and Makarov), their mother, brother and sister (Selene, Kurnuki, and Mavis), a pair of powerful twin bodyguards (Kira and Disper), and two servants (Jellal and Urrutia )."
"Since the purpose is to do business here and revive the family, it is necessary to show your cards appropriately at the beginning. This is in line with the mentality of a businessman..."
One has to admit that this disguise does fit the profile of a noble who is down and out but still has some assets.
Especially Selene, Kurnuki, Silver and Mavis who pretended to be a family. All four of them had light blonde hair, and the men were handsome and the women were pretty. Almost no one would disbelieve it if you told them about it.
Hearing that the other party had already prepared such an argument, even Mavis and others nodded secretly, thinking that this boy was thoughtful and a talented person.
But others were not happy!
After hearing this, Disper flew into a rage, pointing at his own handsome face and yelling, "Your titanium eyes are blind! Look carefully, how can I be like a bodyguard? Kira, tell me about him!"
Kira nodded and gave his suggestion: "What Disper said makes sense! How about this, we are the twins, you are the stepmother and her children, and the others remain unchanged..."
"Then explain to me, why did your stepmother bring her whole family with her and accompany you across the ocean to do business here, instead of just taking away your property and leaving?"
"Well..."
Kira pondered for a moment, glanced at Selene secretly, and then asked, "Have you ever heard of 'stepmother's...' Ouch! Who hit me?!"
He turned around angrily and found that it was the president Makarov who hit him. At this time, he was looking at him seriously and said in a deep voice: "Stop talking nonsense and talk about business!"
“…”
This old man knows you have seen it! It's not serious! !
"Okay, okay, then you two are half brothers..." Silver waved his hands, showing that he didn't care at all.
Gerard/Urrutia: So we can only be servants?
But they did not express their dissatisfaction like Kira and Disper. Besides being more mature, they were also the weakest here and could not beat others, so they naturally did not dare to shout casually.
There's nothing we can do since everyone present is a big shot.
Ten minutes later, they arrived at a nearby hotel and stayed there.
Inside the room, ten people were sitting in groups of three or four, holding a meeting.
“When you arrive in a new place, it’s common sense to first establish your own persona.”
"We have almost finished the play of 'the down-and-out young master and his family' along the way, but the next thing is the most important thing - gathering intelligence!"
Disper asked doubtfully, "Haven't you gathered almost all the information?"
Kira shook his head and explained, "What I have collected is information about the other party's abilities, but we still don't know where they live, who is around them, where they usually stay, what hobbies they have... Without knowing these, we can't approach the target in the most peaceful way, and that will inevitably cause a big commotion!"
"Kira is right!"
Mavis suddenly stood up and said, "In order to stop the war at its source, we must deal with the most difficult person, that is, Zeref and his 'Twelve Holy Shields'!"
"The goal of our operation this time is to persuade them to stand on the same front with us and prevent the start of the war!"
