Fairy Tail: My Magic is Yugi Muto's Deck

Chapter 627 You old geezer, I'll fight you to the death!

Upon receiving their payment, Lucy's team, disregarding the presence of their veteran strategist Warlord, immediately ran to a distant tree to divide the spoils—cough cough, divide the money.

Mira and Erza respectfully accepted the teacups and thanked her, while Chess was less formal.

"Haha, Chase, it seems you have a low level of trust with them." Warlord glanced at Lucy and the others who were glancing at them warily from time to time, and said with a smile.

The reason Lucy and the others ran so far was to be wary of Chase, fearing that he would come over and take advantage of them.

After all, the Kingdom of Stella still vividly remembers the losses they suffered!

"Your statement is rather one-sided."

Chase picked up his teacup and took a sip, then put his hands on Mira and Erza's shoulders. "To be precise, it's the three of us."

"Oh dear, Senior Warlord, you flatter me. My darling isn't that outstanding either~" Mira leaned into Chase's arms, winking playfully and charmingly.

In front of the guild's senior members, the shy Erza wasn't as bold as her, her whole body stiffening: "That stinky white-haired guy is right!"

Warlord:

—So "low trust level" is actually a compliment?

Chess was one thing, but I never expected that these two seemingly well-behaved girls would be so shameless!

And another thing, I'm inviting you two for tea, and you're just throwing your love around like this?!

As a senior colleague, Warlord felt he should remain calm, at least not like Lucy who unleashed all his pent-up frustrations.

So, after being single for over a hundred years, he took a sip of tea and calmly said, "Yesterday I went to the Council headquarters for a meeting, and the specific procedures for the Ten Saints' assessment a week from now have been finalized."

He naturally knew about Chase's participation in the Holy Ten Trials, and even secretly put in a lot of effort.

Although Fairy Tail has the achievement of destroying Tartaros after its return, Fairy Tail is well-known, and since he and Makarov are both Wizards of Ten, there will inevitably be some opposition.

"Oh? Is Senior Warlord planning to reveal some information in advance?" Chase couldn't help but become interested.

Even Mira stopped being all lovey-dovey and sat up straight, while Erza quietly perked up her ears.

"What are you thinking? I would never do something so unfair, and you don't need to do it at all with your strength."

Recalling yesterday's meeting, Warlord's usually unserious face turned serious for once. "What I want to remind you is that the intensity of your assessment this time may be the highest ever."

"God Serena, the number one ranked Wizard and the strongest mage in Ishgar, that crazy guy heard about your deeds and declared at the meeting that he would not allow anyone on the continent to be madr than him. He also publicly stated that he would put pressure on you during the assessment."

Upon hearing this, Mira and Erza both frowned, their expressions changing slightly.

Unexpectedly, before the Holy Ten assessment even began, her man had already been targeted by someone.

They had absolute faith in Chess's strength, even though he was Ishgar's strongest mage.

Isn't this blatant targeting?

"I see, we were thinking the same thing."

Chase clenched his fist slightly, a fighting spirit gleaming in his eyes, and laughed, "Then let's see who's more arrogant!"

Back when he decided to participate in the Ten Wizard Saints' Trials, he was already planning to spar with Serena, the "Eight Dragon Slayers Mage," but he hadn't yet figured out what excuse to use.

Now you don't need to think about so much, just go up and throw your fists!

Warlord:

"I think I know why you've been targeted."

These two are exactly the same!

The situation is dire. To the north, the Five Divine Dragons are expanding more and more blatantly, and to the west, the restless Alvarez Empire is stirring. If possible, he truly hopes that the powerful figures on the continent of Ishgar can unite as one and stop engaging in internal competition and infighting.

Unfortunately, Serena ignored his advice yesterday.

"So, old Woj, are you telling me not to make things too big?" Chase asked tentatively.

What kind of weird nickname is "Old Wo"?!

Warlord took a deep breath and slowly put down his teacup: "No—"

"I hope you won't hold back then. Give that ungrateful bastard a good beating, a really good beating!"

"Who do you think you are, giving me attitude and then daring to set your sights on Fairy Tail?!"

So what if there's internal competition? It all comes out before Fairy Tail's reputation!

Moreover, people like Serena don't have a strong sense of belonging to Ishgar to begin with. If they aren't defeated, they might just decide to defect to the Northern or Western Continent one day.

Currently, the only one with this ability is Chase; neither he nor Hayberion can do it!

Seeing the usually mild-mannered Warlord suddenly become indignant and passionate, Mira and Erza were now stunned.

Knowing Chase's personality and temperament well, they had just been thinking that if Warlord asked Chase to restrain himself, they would offer a few symbolic words of advice from the sidelines.

I have to say, he truly lives up to his reputation as a senior member of our guild!

"Haha, absolutely!" Chase said, patting his chest.

Meanwhile, Lucy's team finally divided the money.

Everyone's face was beaming with the joy of returning home with a full load.

"Senior Warlord! Didn't you say there would be additional commission fees?"

Lucy strode over, her face beaming with excitement, and approached Warlord. "Information on the Zodiac Key!"

Money is everything; she didn't even remember this matter until she had stuffed the banknotes into her pocket, and she was incredibly looking forward to it.

Unbeknownst to me, I already have ten Zodiac Keys. If I can collect them all and achieve the highest achievement of Celestial Spirit Mage, my mother in heaven will surely be happy and proud!

"About this—"

Just a moment ago, Warlord was full of excitement. He coughed twice, regaining his calm and amiable senior demeanor. His change of expression was incredibly fast.

Not inferior to Lucy, "Sorry, the information about the zodiac was actually a joke. I have no relevant clues."

'

As soon as she finished speaking, the entire room fell silent, and Lucy's bright smile came to an abrupt halt.

A few seconds passed.

"Aaaaaah! You old geezer who loves to make silly jokes, wadashi, wadashi, I'll fight you to the death!!"

"Wow, you actually said it!"

"Oh my, Lucy, you're so brave~"

"Lucy! You can't be rude to Senior Warlord."

"Hiss—it's going to break! Stop! Don't pull on the sapling on my head! I was just joking. Now I'll tell you the information!!"
