Chapter 6: Kira's invitation to form a team
Karna Island, also known as Devil Island, is inhabited by demons that have survived from long ago. Although they are numerous, they are weak. They know no magic, nor do they have extraordinary strength and wisdom. Their technology is even more backward. Their only ability is to transform into humans. Therefore, they are not taken seriously by the Council of Law, and they just reproduce silently on the small islands overseas.
Devil's Island is just a small chapter in the original book. In order to prove that he is better than his master Uru, Gray's senior brother Leon moved the demon Deliora sealed by Uru to the island of Karna, hoping to use the "Moon Drop" to eliminate the absolute freeze and then defeat Deliora.
Unexpectedly, the magic circle used to create the Moon Drop condensed a purple magic barrier above the island of Karna, which affected the memories of the islanders and made them believe that they were turned into demons because of the Purple Moon. Therefore, they sent a mission to the Magic Guild in the hope of solving this "curse".
Among them, the only one that Kira is more interested in is the "Moon Drop", which is a legendary magic that gathers the power of moonlight and can eliminate all magic.
As for the rest... After all, it's Devil's Island, and there are things related to demons everywhere. Maybe I can collect some useful materials and maybe even make some good magic equipment.
Kira has always been doing tasks like solving monsters, because these tasks not only do not require much brainpower, but also allow him to collect materials for making magic equipment. But this time he wants to try something different.
In the original book, the key finally fell into the hands of Lucy, a person with an indelible bond with the stars.
Hmm...Kira can already foresee Lucy trying to buy the golden key from him...hehehe...
Ahem... Don't think too much, it's useless!
"If I get the golden key, won't I be able to set any price then?"
"Ah, this is the benefit of foresight!"
The luckiest thing in the world is to cheat, but what is more fascinating than cheating is to keep cheating.
As the saying goes: Cheating feels good for a while, but if you keep cheating... you will be blocked.
But who can so easily reject the beauty in it?
Kira took the task book, went to the registration desk on the first floor, slammed the task on the table, and said to Mira, who was in charge of recording, with some excitement: "Mira Mira, I, Kira, have accepted this task. Please help register it."
Sometimes Kira finds it strange. Fairy Tail is such a big guild, but Mira has to do all the big and small things.
Task registration, new employee orientation, waiter...
Perhaps this is the reason why Mira doesn't seem to be short of money even though she doesn't go on many missions.
Well, she was S-level before, maybe she had a lot of money saved. She is definitely a beautiful, rich and innocent girl, and she is also the type of big and gentle sister. She is simply a perfect character. No wonder those fans regard her as the heroine.
But these alone could not tempt Kira.
You are not as strong as me, not as smart as me, not as popular as me? You don’t have as much savings as me, so you want to win me over with your looks? Am I a superficial person?
Who am I? Kira!
The value of this name is known to all, and it is difficult to explain to those who do not. Readers do not need to search online, after all, all the relevant content on the Internet has been deleted. The rest can only be said to be very complicated. If you really want to know, you can read the comments below:

In fact, it’s not that all the work of the entire guild was done by Mira alone, but the others were just background boards and Kira never noticed them.
"Ah, it's rare that you would accept a mission. Are you interested in the reward?" Mira took the mission sheet, took a closer look, and asked curiously, "Are you interested in this golden key?"
Everyone in the guild knew that Kira ran a magic shop, so naturally he had to purchase some magic items. The Golden Star Key was indeed attractive enough for him to accept the mission.
Kira nodded: "I guess so. Besides, islands inhabited by demons are rare after all. Maybe we can collect unexpected materials."
"By the way, is it okay for you to go alone? This mission doesn't look easy."
Although she believed in Kira's ability, words like 'demon' and 'curse' made Mira a little worried.
"It's okay, I'm very strong..." Kira patted his chest confidently.
Hmm... But what Mira said makes sense, maybe I can find a few thugs.
After all, they might meet Leon, Urrutia and others on Devil's Island. Kira thinks he can bring Gray along, not for the purpose of correcting the plot or anything, but simply to give his fellow apprentices a chance to resolve their past grievances.
Ah, I am really an angel, doing good things without asking for anything in return. Where can I find a companion as trustworthy as me? I really envy these lucky guys.
Thinking of this, Kira walked towards the busiest wine table.
Snapped!
He slapped the mission book in front of the people who were drinking, and clasped three fingers of his left hand: "Everyone, I want to take an S-level mission. Is there anyone who wants to go with me? There are only three places, and of course, each person will only get 1% of the reward."
"Huh? One percent, who wants to go with you?"
"Wait, he just mentioned an S-level mission, did I hear it right?"
"What? S-rank? Really?"
"If it's an S-level mission, one percent should be a lot, right?"
"No, it's rare that you would accept a mission."
"But, isn't this against the guild's rules?"
"Don't worry, I'm here for you if you're in any danger," Kira waved his hand , "President always says that these rules and regulations are bullshit! If you really want to make a fuss, just say that I took the mission and you guys are just traveling along the way."
"...You are truly a genius."
After hearing what Kira said, everyone started to think about it and came forward. The first thing they saw was the mission reward: "What mission? Let me see... What?! 7 million J?!"
"So the rewards for S-level missions are so different from ours?"
"That's 1% which is 70,000 J. It's about the same for one of our missions."
When they saw the reward for the mission, a few guys who were almost drunk suddenly woke up and sprayed out the wine in their mouths.
Gray even raised his head to take a look at the second floor. He was eager to try. He had never expected that the reward for an S-class wizard would be nearly a hundred times that of his own. He absolutely! Absolutely! Absolutely! Absolutely! Absolutely must become an S-class wizard before Natsu, and then laugh at him!
Wait... this might be an opportunity.
Although it was only one percent, 70,000 J was enough. The remuneration for the tasks he usually took was about this amount, and he also had to pay a portion of it for damaging things.
Well, this order can be done!
