Chapter 622: The foot of the mountain is not peaceful at night
“Ehhhhh??!!!”
The exclamation echoed throughout the mountain, breaking the tranquility of the night.
"The first king turned out to be..."
"A powerful wizard?!"
“Never heard of it!!!”
Fortunately, this is an isolated mountain outside the city. Otherwise, if it were inside the city, these people’s shouting would probably wake up a large number of people who are dreaming or working on artificial intelligence.
Kira was speechless and complained: "Keep your voice down! I still need my ears!"
Several people fell silent, and their expressions gradually relaxed.
I realized later that it wasn't so surprising that the king knew magic!
Erza was the first to calm down . "Although it was a bit surprising at first, it is true when you think about it carefully. If a leader does not have strong power, how can he convince his subordinates? Moreover, he is the first king to establish a country. If he did not have the power, he would have died of assassination or something else long ago..."
Relatively speaking, Natsu was more concerned about another thing: "Is the current king also a wizard? Is he strong?"
Gray rolled his eyes at him and said sarcastically, "Are you asking this because you want to fight him?"
Natsu's facial features immediately tightened and he fell into deep thought: "Hmm... well..."
"You really want to go?!"
Gray looked shocked and roared in disbelief.
Kira clapped his hands, pulling Natsu's attention back from his thoughts, "What a shame! The current king doesn't seem to know magic. The princess does know a little, but it's not very strong."
"How did you know that, Kirasan? Did you meet the king and princess?"
"Have you forgotten? I once received a commission from the Fiore royal family! That 20 million dollar order!! I met them during that job!"
Speaking of this, Kira couldn't help but look proud, "When we were in close contact, I didn't feel any magic from King Thomas. As for the magic of the Emerald Princess... I can only say that it is about the same as Dolaire's."
Several people were stunned, blinked in disbelief, and exclaimed again: "Dorael?! Are you talking about that Dolaire?! That Emerald Princess..."
Suddenly, several people paused, looked around cautiously, and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that no one was around. However, they still lowered their voices and continued, "Is the Emerald Princess so weak?"
That's Dolor, who is known as the 'weak duo of the guild' together with Jet!
How could a descendant of a powerful wizard who could build a kingdom be someone with such weak magical talent?
Everyone was puzzled.
Kira smacked his lips, glanced at everyone, and said, "Don't look down on me. No matter how weak I am, I am still richer than us! One piece of jewelry may be worth our entire fortune, and my material life is richer than we can imagine! So what if I don't have enough magic talent?"
The air suddenly became quiet.
"This... this is true..."
"What you said makes a lot of sense!"
"What on earth am I so proud of? Damn it!"
Several people lost their temper completely. They lowered their heads in shame, pounding the ground in frustration, and tears of poverty flowed from their eyes.
Sadness always flows like a river, and the few people finally returned to normal before the river overflowed.
"The king is the leader, the general leads the army, the president of the Chamber of Commerce provides funds, and the treasure hunters and warriors also have their own strengths and play irreplaceable roles."
"Looking at it this way, the five of them are really indispensable!"
"And they all seem to know magic. The founding of the Kingdom of Fiore might be more legendary than we imagined!"
Lucy couldn't help but say, "It's just like a story in an adventure novel..."
Erza showed a curious look on her face and said, "After I go back this time, maybe I can look for Levi and see if she has any related books I can borrow."
"Don't you just like to read coloring books?"
Boom! !
Erza knocked Kira to the ground with one punch, then retracted her sandbag-sized fist, blushed and blew continuously, her eyes turned into mosquito coils, and she pointed at Kira on the ground and said stumblingly: "That...that's not the case! You you you...you guy!! Stop talking nonsense!!!"
The expressions of the others suddenly became interesting: "Erusa?! You actually?!"
I can't believe it... You are this kind of Erza?!
Gray and Happy's expressions turned teasing, Lucy, Wendy, and Xia Lulu blushed, and as for Natsu... he didn't understand.
Seeing everyone's eyes full of exploratory desire, Erza became even more panicked: "Don't, don't, don't listen to that bastard Kira! He is slandering me! It's defamation! I haven't watched "Two or Three Things About Girls in Love"! "
“You even said the title of the book !!!!”×N
“Oh no!!”
Erza's face turned even redder. She covered her mouth with her hands in panic, then moved them upwards to cover her entire face. She turned away and dared not look at anyone. "It's not me! I didn't! Don't talk nonsense!!!"
But the voice of denial was so pale and powerless. Under the gaze of everyone, Erza seemed to have lost all her strength and collapsed to the ground, doubting her life.
Gray quickly supported her: "Hey! Erza! Cheer up, Erza!!"
The feeling of social death must be very devastating, right?
Kira stood up, rubbed the big bump on his head, and comforted him: "It's okay, Erza! We are all adults, it's normal to have some adult hobbies, you..."
Kira suddenly stopped talking halfway, as if he had thought of something. His pupils suddenly shrank and his face gradually became filled with fear.
Seeing this, Lucy and the others were instantly worried: "What's wrong, Kira?"
Did something terrible happen?! This is the first time I see Kira with such an expression on his face...
"Oh no! Wendy heard what I just said!!"
Kira screamed and rushed forward, holding Wendy's shoulders with both hands and shaking her hard, "Forget her! Forget her, Wendy!! That is a topic that only adults can listen to, not something a child of your age can get involved in!! If you don't forget it quickly, you will get sore plums in your ears if you hear it!!"
Everyone was speechless: "..."
Lucy complained crazily: "It's too late to say this now! And how can you say sour plums grow in your ears to deceive children?! Besides, Wendy is not an immature child!!"
Xia Lulu was very dissatisfied with Kira's actions. She flew in front of him with her wings spread and shouted, "What are you doing to Wendy?! Let her go! You are too rough!!"
However, whether it was Lucy's complaints or Xia Lulu's complaints, it was too late at this moment.
When Wendy heard the words "sour plums growing in ears", she opened her eyes and screamed: "No!!!"
After screaming, the little girl seemed to have lost all her strength and collapsed.
Xia Lulu and Happy quickly supported her: "Wendy! Cheer up, Wendy!!"
"Oh no, Wendy fainted!!"
Kira looked flustered, grabbing his hair in annoyance: "This is not good! The most horrible thing has happened!!"
"What?!"
"No?"
"Could it be that Wendy really has sour plums growing out of her ears?"
Natsu, Gray, and Happy shouted in shock at the same time.
Lucy and Xia Lulu roared in unison: "Just think about it and you know it's impossible, okay?! You three idiots!!"
"There's nothing I can do. I can only use the memory-erasing magic on Wendy..."
Kira had a look of grief on his face. With one hand, he gathered a ball of magical energy emitting white light and walked towards Wendy who was in a coma and murmured "No... No..." with difficulty.
“Stop it right there! Asshole! Didn’t you hear Wendy say ‘no’? How could you have the heart to do such a cruel thing as erasing the memory of the lovely Wendy? She’s just a child!!”
Natsu and Lucy immediately rushed forward to stop them, and then wrestled with Kira.
"You don't understand! It's because she's a child that needs to be eliminated! Don't worry, it won't cause any harm to her body. I have experience in this area!"
Lucy was shocked again, her voice becoming even more terrified: "What?! You have experience?! What experience?! Where did you get the experience?! I say, you didn't do anything to us secretly, did you?!"
"Oh, right! I see! You must have erased my memory of paying you back! So I still remember that I owe you money, but in fact I have already paid it back, right?!"
"Stop talking nonsense!! Don't think you can get rid of my debt with just one sentence!!"
Lucy burst into tears upon hearing this and stubbornly retorted, "I don't believe it! I must have paid it back! I worked hard for a whole year, the amount owed can't have changed so little!!"
"That's because the amount you pay back every month is so low! If I hadn't calculated the interest, your debt would have been increasing year by year!"
Hearing this heart-wrenching truth, Lucy's expression instantly dimmed, and then, like Erza and Wendy, she seemed to lose all her strength and collapsed.
Natsu quickly supported her: "Lucy!! Cheer up, Lucy!!"
"Oh no! Lucy fainted too!"
"What? This is really serious!" Kira looked at Natsu seriously and said, "Natsu, only you can save Lucy now! Give her artificial respiration!"
"Okay! I'll do it right away! By the way, what is artificial respiration?"
Kira: “…”
