Fairy Tail: Capturing the Demon Mirajane at the Start

Brother, this is a joint order of attack issued by four 'Heavenly Kings'. Do we still need to discuss it?

Just do it.

Even if the Jerenil family is truly innocent, they still must be punished.

Moreover, none of these nobles are good people.

Besides, which of these noble forces that survived the first and second trade wars was clean?

"As ordered."

Upon receiving Crawford's orders, the council member did not hesitate and went off to prepare the troops.

Before long, several magical knight orders set off from the Magic Council ERA and headed towards the heart of the Jerenil family.

On the other side.

The capital of the Kingdom of Fiore is 'City of Flowers' Clocas.

'Hua Deng Palace'.

"Hehe, what do you all think about the fact that the five 'Ten Wizard Saints' have collectively petitioned us to attack the Jelenieru family?"

Old Thomas sat on his throne and passed the letters sent to him by Igor and others to the assembled officials.

“Your Majesty, I believe that these mages who have been awarded the title of ‘Ten Wizards’ by the ‘Magic Council ERA’ are far too arrogant. They actually dared to place the judgment on the Jerenil family on your behalf. This is a complete overstepping of authority.”

After reading the letter sent by Ig and others, the royal minister was furious, his face turning red and his expression filled with rage. In his view, this was a trampling of royal authority by the powerful people of the continent of Ishgar.

"Moreover, although they are all ranked among the 'Ten Wizard Saints,' in the end, they are just a group of mages without any titles."

"However, this group of mages who are not even 'knights' dared to directly issue orders to His Majesty the King to deal with Prince Jerenilu. I believe this has reached the level of 'insubordination' and should be severely punished."

Besides the ministers, some court members from noble families broke out in a cold sweat after seeing the letter. As they read its contents, they couldn't help but feel a sense of shared fate, realizing that the Jerenilu family's fate today might very well be their family's tomorrow.

"That's right! They must be severely punished!"

“Your Majesty, you must not compromise with these mages.”

In an instant, the entire council hall in front of the king was in chaos. Everyone was arguing in their own favor. Their consensus was that they absolutely could not give in to the wishes of these 'Ten Holy Mages' and they had to let these 'Ten Holy Mages' know who the master of the kingdom really was.

"hehe."

Old Thomas scoffed, a mocking glint in his eyes, and said sarcastically, "It's not as serious as you make it out to be. It's as if I would be trampling on the honor of the 'Fiore' family if I acted according to the contents of the letter."

"Your Majesty the King."

"Our 'Fiore' family has ruled the kingdom for four hundred years, relying on fairness, justice, and treating everyone equally."

Before old Thomas could finish speaking, the Emerald Princess, who was sitting beside him, had already risen from her throne. Ignoring the group of Fiends present, she bowed to old King Thomas and said earnestly, "Therefore, I believe that, rather than the ministers' suggestion to severely punish these 'Ten Wizard Saints'..."

“I think that if we let the Jerelan family run rampant, it would be a real trampling on the honor of our 'Fiore' family.”

As Princess Emerald finished speaking, she glanced at the nobles below the stage with disdain in her eyes. These noble knights were no different from the Jerelan family; they were all burdens that hindered the kingdom's progress.

"Your Highness, how can you say that?"

"The Jerenil family has also made outstanding contributions to the Kingdom of Fiore, and the head of the family is one of the kingdom's princes."

Princess Emerald's words shocked the nobles and knights present, who all stared at her in disbelief.

“I think Jade makes a good point.”

“My 'Fiore' family rules the kingdom not through personal connections, but through impartial laws. Even princes cannot break the law.”

But old Thomas ignored the opinions of the courtiers present. He looked at them coldly and said, "Dispatch the 'Hungry Wolf Knights' to capture all members of the Jerelan family."

"Uh."

As soon as old Thomas finished speaking, the ministers present all changed their expressions.

Many of the court officials, who were of noble birth or had received favors from the Gereneru family, resigned on the spot, threatening old Thomas.

Then he was captured and imprisoned by the 'Hungry Wolf Knights'.

Old Thomas: "If I can't handle the 'Ten Wizards of the Ages,' then I can't handle you guys?"

Moreover, old Thomas had long wanted to get rid of these powerful nobles and reclaim his power, which could be considered a way of getting along with Igor.

Chapter 157 What does it mean that Princess Emerald went to join Fairy Tail? (Part 1)

Once the King of the Kingdom of Fiore and the Chairman of the Magic Council ERA reached an agreement, the Jerenil family no longer needed to exist.

And so it is.

When the Kingdom's strongest mage knight order, the 'Greek Knights' known as the 'Executioners of Mages', and the army dispatched by the 'Magic Council ERA' arrived at the territory of the Jerenil family, the Jerenil family, which had once held sway over the 'Fiore' Kingdom and even the 'Ishgar' continent, collapsed in a spectacular fashion.

"Dad! I don't want to be arrested..."

Savaru, the son of the Jerenilu family, clung to his father's leg, weeping incessantly.

Although Savaru held the title of Duke, he actually had no ability whatsoever and was a complete good-for-nothing who rose to power through 'bloodline'.

"You can't treat me like this!"

"Do you, these inherently lowly people, really know who I am?"

“I am the head of the Jerenil family and one of the princes of the Kingdom of 'Fiore'. My noble and great mother is the biological sister of the mother of the current King of 'Fiore', Thomas E. Fiore.”

"In other words, I have the same blood as the king flowing through my veins; I am your king's cousin!!"

"Even your esteemed King addresses me as 'brother' when he sees me. How dare you treat me with such disrespect?!"

Valentine was already overwhelmed with his own problems. He was pinned to the ground by the leader of the 'Hungry Wolf Knights' with one hand, but he was still defiant, struggling and roaring.

“Your Highness, why don’t you use your brain and think about it? The fact that our ‘Hungry Wolf Knights’ have appeared here already explains everything.”

The leader of the 'Ghost Riders', a man cloaked in black with two enormous sickles strapped to his back, resembling the 'Grim Reaper', spoke coldly to Valentine.

"Really?"

"So it really was Thomas who gave the order?"

Valentine's eyes were filled with despair as he roared, "Damn old Thomas! Your 'Fiore' family is so heartless that the entire kingdom will be in turmoil! No old noble family in this world will obey a king who even wants to exterminate the royal family."

"The king's affairs are none of your business."

As the leader of the 'Hungry Wolf Knights' spoke, he lifted Valentine off the ground and led his entire knightly order out of the manor.

At the same time, the army of the Magic Council ERA also defeated all the major knightly orders and private armies under the Jerenil family.

Meanwhile, the Magic Council ERA and the Hungry Wolf Knights did indeed find evidence of collusion between the Jerenil family and the Dark Mage Guild during the process of eliminating the Jerenil family.

Of course, this evidence has nothing to do with Igor.

Just as Jiude said before, there are no clean nobles in this world. If you investigate carefully, you can find out the problems in them all.

Two weeks later.

Crocus, the capital of the Kingdom of 'Fiore'.

Aristocratic Tribunal.

Because the nobles sentenced this time numbered over three hundred, from the lowest-ranking baron to the highest-ranking prince, and all were members of the Jerenilu family, King Thomas E. Fiore of the Kingdom of Fiore personally came to the scene.

"Valentine, you have disappointed me greatly."

Old Thomas sat in the Chief Justice's seat, coldly looking at Valentine E. Jerenilu kneeling before him, his voice filled with sorrow.

"Don't be so wicked, you hypocritical king."

Valentine stared coldly at old Thomas on the throne, roaring at the top of his lungs.

"Ugh."

Old Thomas ignored Valentin's roar, shook his head and said: "In view of the fact that the Jeleniru family ignored the laws of the kingdom and the regulations of the Council, and hired members of the Dark Magister Guild without authorization to achieve their illegal purposes! Now deprive Jeleniru. The title of the three hundred and thirty-four members of the Nilu family was sentenced to exile. The others were confiscated and demoted to civilians. "

"Gentlemen, thank His Majesty for his mercy."

"According to the judgment of the council members, you should have been sentenced to death."

The chief justice, seeing that old Thomas had sentenced these members of the Jerenilu family, immediately added.

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty."

"Thank you for His Majesty Thomas's kindness."

Upon hearing this, a member of the Jeremylin family repeatedly thanked old Thomas.

"Go to hell! You treacherous villain, you despicable robber, you actually expect me to thank you? Even if I die, I will never thank you..."

Of course, some elders of the Jerenilu family scoffed at His Majesty the Elder Thomas, who sat on the throne, and roared angrily.

"presumptuous!"

In response, the soldiers standing beside old Thomas drew their swords and aimed them at the elder of the Gereneru family.

"Give him his wish."

Old Thomas smiled, pointed at the old man, and uttered three words indifferently. Then, his sharp gaze swept across the entire scene, and he said coldly, "Anyone else who wants to die can register with my knights."

After saying this, old Thomas opened a 'court of nobles' in a small room.

No sooner had old Thomas left than the elder of the Gereneru family was slashed to death by one of old Thomas's knights, his blood splattering across the entire courtroom.

"what!!"

For a moment, piercing screams echoed throughout the courtroom.

"Ugh."

As for the judges in the court, they could only sigh repeatedly, yet they were helpless. At that moment, they wanted to say, "The world is going to the dogs," but they dared not.

After all, according to the past trials of nobles, exile was already the highest level of punishment; the death penalty had never been imposed, and the execution was always carried out immediately.

Unfortunately, the one who broke this century-old rule was their king.

Moreover, there is a high probability that this unconventional king is the greatest king in the history of their 'Fiore' Kingdom.

"Strange."

Not long after, when old Thomas returned to the palace, he suddenly discovered that his beloved daughter, Emerald E. Fiore, was missing. He frowned and asked the guard, "Where did my daughter Emerald go?"

"Uh."

"Princess Emerald just left the Palace of Lights with her maid, saying she's going to the Fairy Tail guild for some training."

Upon hearing this, the guard answered truthfully.

"puff…"

Upon hearing this, old Thomas immediately spat out the tea he had just drunk.

He looked horrified and said, "What did you say? You said my precious daughter actually ran off to that infamous den of evil, Fairy Tail, the Mage Guild?"

"Jade, have you gone mad?"

Old Thomas was terrified, fearing that something might happen to his precious daughter in Fairy Tail.

Chapter 158 Princess, what lies ahead of you is not Fairy Tail, but Hell! (Part Two)

Several days later.

The border of the Kingdom of 'Fiore'.

"I will definitely come back, Thomas! I will come back to take my revenge..."

Valentine stood on the border of the kingdom and roared in the direction of the capital of the Kingdom of 'Fiore'.

"Father, I'm so hungry."

"I really want to eat."

Savaruru rubbed his emaciated belly and complained to Valentine.

"Idiot, now is not the time to eat. We have more important things to do."

Valentine's stomach was growling with hunger. After rubbing his belly, he said angrily, "I've got it! Let's go to the neighboring country! Let's go with your father to seek refuge with your aunt."

Incidentally, after Valentine and Savaru were sentenced to exile by old Thomas, not a single member of the Jerenilu family left the Kingdom of Fiore with them.

After all, the other members of the Gereneru family had only had their titles and some assets confiscated. They still had some connections in the kingdom, so even if they couldn't make a comeback, they were at least financially secure.

Valentine was furious and roared, "A bunch of good-for-nothings! You've completely disgraced the Jerenilu family! The decline of the Jerenilu family is because it's full of cowards!"
