Fairy Tail: Capturing the Demon Mirajane at the Start

Second place: Mirajane Strauss, a member of the Fairy Tail guild, who hunted over two hundred Balkans.

Third place: Fred Justin, a member of the Fairy Tail guild, with 78 Balkans hunted.

Fourth place: Elfman Strauss, a member of the Fairy Tail guild, with 73 Balkans hunted.

Fifth place: Cana Alperona, a member of the Fairy Tail guild, with 69 Balkans hunted.

Yes, the record has been completely updated. Now, the top five hunters of the Balkans are all mages from the Fairy Tail guild.

"Uh."

Susan stared at the names inscribed on the monument before her, her pupils dilated, and she muttered to herself, "Are all the mages in the Fairy Tail guild monsters?"

Chapter 99 Igor: What do you mean someone registered the Town and the Mage Guild in my name? (Part 1)

Before the Fairy Tail guild's mages launched a massive invasion of the Halber Mountains, the highest record set by adventurers in Ig Town on the Records Monument was the consecutive killing of forty-eight Balkans within six months.

To be honest, this data is already quite impressive.

If you do the math, their average pre-tax income is around 800,000 J per month, making them an undisputed high-income group.

However, the record held by the other side was broken by the mages of the Fairy Tail guild in just half a month.

This truly shocked everyone in Adventurer's Town.

"Is this the strength of a member of a legitimate mage guild? That's a bit too exaggerated!"

The adventurers in the small town were deeply moved as they watched the data on the record monument rise.

As expected, the members of the legitimate mage guild with their deep foundations are indeed extraordinary in strength, completely different from these lone wolves.

It should be noted that the official mage guilds of the 'Fiore' Kingdom not only have senior masters who have trained for many years to guide them, but also various magic books, as well as resources such as missions and materials, which are far beyond what these wandering mages can compare to.

Therefore, members of the regular mage guilds are generally much stronger than these lone wolves.

In particular, once these lone wolves provoke members of a legitimate mage guild, they are often attacked by the mob, and end up in jail, forced to apologize and pay compensation.

"Why don't we establish a mage guild?"

Hearing the envious whispers around her, Susan thought for a moment and then made a suggestion.

"Huh?!"

As Susan finished speaking, all the lone wolves present froze in place, looking at each other before finally nodding and saying, "I think it's a good idea!"

"We've known each other for a long time, and we've fought together in the Halber Mountains. We're all trustworthy people! Why don't we start a mage guild together?"

Susan's suggestion was quickly accepted by those present.

Honestly, they were fed up with the lone wolf life and wanted a place to call home.

"So, what should we call our newly established Mage Guild?"

After thinking for a while, one of the mages asked in confusion.

“Since we were guided by Lord Ig to gather at the foot of the Halber Mountains and establish this adventurer's town, and since Lord Ig is a member of the Fairy Tail Mage Guild, why don't we name our Mage Guild 'Fairy of Ice and Snow'?”

Susan could never forget the beautiful figure of Igor when he fought against Pakas, the ace S-class mage of the "Four-Headed Hound" mage of the Mage Guild after receiving the soul of the "Ice Demon," and she said this to the other mages present.

"it is good!"

"Let's call the mage guild we've established the 'Fairy of Ice and Snow'."

As Susan finished speaking, the other mages present echoed her words, all displaying an extremely excited attitude.

After all, this is the mage guild they founded together!

Since everyone's strength is mediocre and they are not qualified to join those top-tier mage guilds, let's all establish a mage guild together.

At least in this way, everyone can have a home.

"Igor, thank you."

“You have helped us once again.”

Susan glanced at the excited mages surrounding her, a slight smile playing on her lips, and silently prayed to Igor.

In Susan's eyes, Igor had become like a guardian angel.

Incidentally, the mage guild 'Fairies of the Snow' founded by Susan and others was originally intended to protect Mount Halberd, which is home to high-altitude and extreme-climate magical beasts. Therefore, the Magic Council ERA directly approved their guild's application and granted them a tax rate far lower than that of other mage guilds.

Similar to the mage guild 'Fairy of Ice and Snow' established by Susan and others, there is also the mage guild 'Neko no Okura' (Cat's Abode) which is responsible for overseeing the ancient magic 'Nirvana'.

These responsible mage guilds do indeed enjoy certain privileges within the 'ERA Magic Council'.

In that sense, the Magic Council ERA is also doing something worthwhile.

Well, on this point, Mester, who was sent by the former guild master of Fairy Tail, Makarov, to be an undercover agent in the Magic Council ERA, is the most qualified to speak on this matter.

Mester: "I have two sets of arguments prepared!"

Before Mester infiltrated the Magic Council ERA and regained his memories, he thought the Fairy Tail guild was a complete disaster, constantly causing trouble for the Magic Council ERA and considered a global scourge.

After Mester fully regained her memories and remembered that she was originally a mage of the Fairy Tail guild, she angrily scolded the Magic Council ERA for making trouble for no reason. She said that if it weren't for their magic guild Fairy Tail, the Magic Council ERA would have been wiped out by the Dark Magician Guild long ago with its weak fighting power.

Well, to put it simply, your position determines your thinking.

cough cough.

Of course, Igor himself was unaware of what was happening in the Halber Mountains.

Even if he knew that his influence had united a large number of wandering, lone mages and formed a mage guild in his image, he wouldn't say anything.

After all, when Igor first chose to go to the Harbe Mountains, he was really just doing it on a commission from the Magic Council to hunt down a few Balkan monsters and exchange them for some money from the Magic Council ERA.

As for Igor at this moment, he did not appear in the Halberd Mountains.

He entrusted Laxus and Erza with the responsibility of assessing the Halber Mountains and the Fairy Tail guild's S-class mage examination.

At this moment, Igor and Gildarts were standing on a deserted island about two hundred nautical miles from the coastline of the continent of Ishgar and about twenty kilometers in diameter.

"Kildas, I'm ready."

Igor and Gildarts exchanged glances, both constantly mobilizing the magic within their bodies.

As Igor said, he will also participate in Fairy Tail's S-class mage examination this year.

However, the 'S-class' mage exam that Igor participated in was rather special, as he was the only candidate and Gildarts was the only examiner.

"Igor, attack me with all your might!"

"To be honest, I'm also very curious to know, in the more than three years since we last met, how much progress have you made?!"

Gildarts looked at Igor with a hint of curiosity in his eyes.

"it is good."

"That's what I meant."

Igor nodded slightly and released a magical power like a tsunami.

Chapter 100 [The following appears to be a fragmented and nonsensical string of characters: 兴苤矁葢祛牟涣炭郑。 ǘ�]

"Boom!!"

When Igor released all the magic within him, the terrifying power caused the entire island to tremble.

"What powerful magic!"

Gildarts, facing the immense magical power within Ig, laughed and said, "It seems I underestimated your talent, Ig! You will likely become the sixth Heavenly King of the continent of Ishgar before long."

"It's the seventh one."

Eagle corrected.

"Igor, I've already included Chairman Makarov in my list~"

"But even so, no matter how I calculate it, there are only six Heavenly Kings on this continent~ So, Igor, how exactly did you figure out there's a seventh Heavenly King?"

Gildarts smiled and asked Igor.

"Of course, it's because I included you, Gildarts."

Igor smiled and answered truthfully.

As long as Gildarts doesn't go looking for trouble with 'Black Dragon' Acnologia, then their 'Fairy Tail' guild, and even the continent of 'Ishgard', will have one more top-tier mage of the 'Strong Shield' level.

"Aha?"

Gildarts' eye twitched slightly, and he waved at Igor, saying, "Don't count me in the Heavenly Kings' ranks, kid. I don't want to take on such a big responsibility."

"hehe."

Igor shook his head with a smile and explained, "Gildas, it's fine if you're just a figurehead. After all, Serena, the current number one of the 'Ten Wizard Saints,' is just a figurehead, just there to make up the numbers! I haven't seen him make any outstanding contributions to the mages of the continent of Ishgard."

"Ugh."

After realizing he couldn't persuade Igor, Gildarts sighed helplessly and lowered his voice, saying, "In short, I will not be among the 'Ten Wizard Saints'..."

"Of course, if you can beat me, that's a different story."

Gildarts then gestured slightly towards Igor's direction with his finger and said in a deep voice, "Alright, enough of the nonsense!"

"Igor, hurry up and attack me with all your might."

In fact, Gildarts and Natsu have very similar personalities; Gildarts is also a battle maniac.

As for why Gildarts grew tired of Natsu's challenges, it was simply because Natsu's strength was far too weak for Gildarts to handle...

As a result, Gildarts had to be extremely careful to control his strength every time he fought Natsu, for fear that he might accidentally crush Natsu into dust.

It's fair to say that to get Gildarts to fight seriously, you'd need to be at least a 'King' level mage.

However, there are far too few "Heavenly King" level mages on the continent of Ishgar.

Even if you include Prehito, who is now known as Hades, Mardo Gil, the "Lord of the Underworld," and the Underworld Beasts who are the true forms of the "Gates of the Underworld," there are only seven of them. Each of them is a mysterious being who appears only briefly and never appears again. Even if Gildarts wanted to find them to fight, he would not be able to find them at all.

The 'Heavenly King' level mages that Gildarts could find were either too old or didn't want to fight him.

Now that Gildarts has encountered Igor, a mage whose true strength has reached the 'limits of humanity', a fighting spirit immediately rises in his heart.

Of course, Gildarts will still control his output.

Otherwise, even if Igor's current strength is only one step away from becoming a 'King' level mage, he would still be easily killed by Gildarts.

This is the difference between the Heavenly Kings who have stepped into the 'Inhuman Realm' and the mages who are below the 'Inhuman Realm'.

"In that case, I won't stand on ceremony."

As Igor spoke, the smile on his face vanished, and he said coldly, "Receive the Soul of the Bomb Demon!"

"Boom!!"

As Igor finished speaking, a dazzling magic circle immediately formed beneath his feet.

The next second, Igor transformed into a demon wearing a bomb-like dress and with a head resembling a torpedo.

"Igor, you've transformed into that familiar form again~"

Gildarts looked at Igor, who had transformed into a bomb-like monster, and laughed.

"Although his appearance is the same as before, his strength is vastly different!"

At this point, Igor burst into laughter and shouted, "Take this, the progenitor of super bombs!"

"Buzz!"

As Igor spoke, his right arm transformed into a rocket, its warhead containing tens of thousands of tons of TNT, comparable to a small nuclear weapon.

And Igor can fire several of these attacks in succession.

"call out!!"

Igor knew perfectly well just how exaggerated Gildarts's strength was.

If Gildarts were serious, he could probably pulverize the entire island beneath his feet into dust in an instant.

Therefore, when faced with Gildarts, whose strength was so great that he could destroy an entire island, Igor used all his power.

"Fire!"

At Igor's command, the Progenitor of Bombs on his arm immediately shot out, hurtling toward Gildarts at Mach 10.

"Crush!"
