Chapter 690 Seiya: You want me to be the candidate for president!
"President, you're not kidding, are you...?"

Seeing Makarov nod with a smile, Seiya's lips twitched. He felt like he had been tricked by the old man.

"No, I refuse! Being the president is too much trouble, and with my personality, I'm definitely not suited to be the president of Fairy Tail."

There are plenty of people more suitable than me, aren't there? Like Gildarts, and Laxus, especially Laxus, he's always wanted to be the next guild master, hasn't he?"

Seiya truly had no interest in becoming the president of Fairy Tail.

Putting aside the fact that Seiya himself is not cut out for management, just thinking about Natsu and his gang, Seiya can already imagine how much trouble he will face after taking over as chairman.

It's commonplace for Fairy Tail mages to receive complaints; just look at how Makarov is constantly being summoned to the Magic Council and scolded.

Now Makarov wants him to succeed as chairman, which is clearly a trap for him!
"I did mention this to Gildarts, but he said that he was not suitable to serve as chairman because he was homeless."

As for Laxus... I think you should know the answer by now. If he were to become the guild master, would "Fairy Tail" still be "Fairy Tail"?

Makarov's words silenced Seiya. Laxus's strength was undeniable; even in Fairy Tail, he could definitely rank in the top five.

Even Erza and Mira are no match for Laxus now.

However, Laxus was also influenced by his father Ivan, and coupled with the expectations and pressures brought by his grandfather Makarov's reputation, he broke off his relationship with Makarov.

As a child, Laxus idolized Makarov.

But after Makarov expelled his father Ivan from Fairy Tail, Laxus began to harbor resentment towards Makarov and was determined to surpass Makarov to prove himself.

As time went by, Laxus's personality became arrogant, and he also looked down on the weak.

The weak he looked down upon included most of the mages in "Fairy Tail".

However, as one of the people who grew up with Laxus, Seiya knew very well that Laxus loved Fairy Tail and Makarov very deeply.

She was simply not good at expressing herself and didn't know the real reason why the guild master expelled her father from the guild, so she always thought that the weak didn't deserve to stay in "Fairy Tail".

If Laxus were to inherit the position of guild leader, Seiya could be certain that he would kick out most of the guild's mages.

He would completely destroy the atmosphere of Fairy Tail, which was originally like a big family.

"But even if Gildarts and Laxus aren't suitable, aren't there many other suitable candidates in the guild?"

Mistressan…that doesn’t seem right, Erza…her personality doesn’t seem suitable either, then Mira…

In short, I'm definitely not cut out to be the president; I'm clearly not suited for it.

Besides, guild leader, why did you suddenly take a liking to me? Is it just because I defeated Joseph?

“Strength is certainly one aspect, but more importantly, your performance in the Magic Council really impressed me.”

For so many years, Fairy Tail has been missing a mage with your silver tongue. With you as guild leader, we'll never have to worry about being disbanded due to too many complaints again.

Seiya: (*｀へ*)
"And now you know our Fairy Tail's biggest secret..."

Looking at Lumen Starshine in front of him, and then at Makarov, Seiya immediately understood that Makarov, that old man, had been setting a trap for him all along.

He didn't mention it at all before entering the underground room, but only after seeing the "Fairy Heart" did he tell him that this was something only the president and the president-elect could see...

Admittedly, Lumen Starlight is amazing, especially the first chairman Mavis in the crystal, which gave Seiya a considerable visual impact.

Just because he glanced at a naked girl a few times, he was asked to become the head of the male escort club? This is practically a honey trap!
Furthermore, while the first president, Mavis, was indeed beautiful, her figure was really nothing to look at.

As a candidate for president, it's nice to be able to come down and appreciate art by myself every few days, but damn, the price is just too high.

If you're going to watch the game, Seiya might as well join Lucy and Erza's team.

After all, as a fanservice... oh no, I mean shonen action anime, it's commonplace for female characters to have their clothes ripped off during battles.

The first president, Mavis, had a loli-like figure and was supposedly already married, so she was nowhere near as alluring as young girls like Lucy and Erza.

Seeing that Seiya was unmoved and even offered to seal his related memories, Makarov changed his strategy and began to discuss things with Seiya.

Makarov can continue to serve as the president of Fairy Tail, but Seiya must also accept the position of president-designate.

If no one else becomes more suitable to serve as chairman, or if Makarov encounters some misfortune, then Seiya will have to step up and take over the mantle.

After hesitating for a moment, Seiya finally agreed to Makarov's conditions.

Anyway, as long as we don't insist on him being the chairman, it's fine. Although Makarov looks old, he's still very energetic. In another ten or eight years, he should be fine.

As for whether a suitable candidate will emerge in the future? Seiya has already decided that when Laxus returns to the guild next time, he will give this troublesome old man a little lesson to get him back on track.

Makarov showed a satisfied expression when he heard that Seiya had accepted his conditions.

This battle with the "Spectre Ruler" made Makarov realize that finding a reliable guild successor was indeed something that needed to be put on the agenda.

He was ambushed and nearly died this time. If he had really met with misfortune, then the entire Fairy Tail would have been like a pile of loose sand.

Natsu and Gray are both impulsive and hot-headed individuals. Even when choosing a successor, it's necessary to find someone who can keep them in check.

It is quite obvious that Seiya is the most suitable candidate Makarov can see at the moment, both in terms of strength and ability.

With the title of "Ten Wizard Saints" and Seiya's reputation in the guild, even if Makarov had fallen that day, Seiya would still be able to lead the wizards of "Fairy Tail" forward and even reach higher peaks!

To prevent Seiya from going back on his word, Makarov announced the news to the Fairy Tail members upon returning to the celebration banquet.
