Fairy Tail: All Magic Converges in One Body

"Hey..."

Hope waved her hand. "Let's not talk about that. I have a gift for you."

Kana downed the drink in her glass in one gulp and laughed, "Let me make it clear beforehand, I don't accept gifts other than fine wine~"

"That's such a shame."

Hope pulled out a card case, shook it in her hand, and sighed, "In that case, this set of magic cards that I made for someone can only be used by myself."

"I'm sorry, I had too much to drink earlier. Please, please give me this gift."

Kana slides down her knees at lightning speed.

Hope laughed and tossed the card case to her. "Look at this, it's my masterpiece."

The quality of magic cards on the market can only be described as uneven.

Moreover, high-level magic cards are not only extremely rare, but their prices are also beyond the reach of ordinary mages. Even mid-quality cards, which are considered second-best, can often fetch a high price.

Kana had tried to earn money before, but in the end, she was defeated by the unaffordable price of the cards, and she hasn't bought any new magic cards for more than two years.

After the father and daughter were reunited, Gildarts offered to buy powerful cards for Cana, but Cana refused.

It wasn't that she was worried about her elderly father's money.

Gildarts may look unkempt and a bit slovenly, but he's actually quite wealthy, since he can grind S-rank missions like they're nothing.

The reason Kana is giving up is because the potential of her magic cards is too low.

Unless there are special circumstances, people who make magic cards are generally not powerful mages. Otherwise, they could choose to make weapons or armor that sell for higher prices, so why would they bother making cards?

But Hope is no ordinary mage.

Kana eagerly opened the card box, which contained ten magic cards: "Blue-Eyes White Dragon? Red-Eyes Black Dragon? Cyber ​​Dragon? Star Dragon? Crimson Dragon?"

"No, you need to hold a meeting with so many 'dragons'...?"

Looking at the magic cards that were completely different from what she remembered, Kana was a little confused, but these cards looked very powerful.

Hope smiled slightly, "These five cards are all monster cards. I created them using 'Addition' and various 'Shape' spells. You only need to pay magic power to summon them to fight for you."

"Also, although the electronic dragon is called a dragon, it is not actually a dragon."

Kana scratched her head. "Is there...is there a difference?"

This makes a big difference for dragon cancer patients. Hope shook his head. Sure enough, only a card player can understand a card player.

Hope then introduced the remaining five cards in the card box to Kana.

The "Kuribo" card is a life-saving card that can block attacks at crucial moments.

The Hermit's Cauldron can automatically produce healing and damage potions.

The remaining three are "Holy Shield", "Magic Cylinder", and "Segmentation Wall". The first two can counter enemy physical and magical attacks respectively, while the latter can reduce the power of enemy attacks.

Chapter 197 A Commission from the Council

Hope borrowed the design of Yu-Gi-Oh! cards to create these magic cards, and then used the "Addition Technique" to add various magic to the cards, thereby achieving a variety of effects.

As Gildarts' daughter, Cana has a high potential for magical power, but the 'card' magic limits her, preventing her from unleashing her full potential.

Card magic is a comprehensive form of magic.

Being well-rounded means being good at everything, but not excelling at anything. This type of magic generally has this intractable flaw.

Not to mention that card magic is also limited by the quality of the cards.

To overcome these weaknesses, you'd need a cheat code.

So Hope, who hadn't turned off her cheat code, also gave Kana a little boost.

These ten new cards are actually a collection of several spells.

For example, "Blue-Eyes White Dragon" was created by Hope using "Sacred Dragon Slayer" and "Shaping", and then fused into a blank card using "Additional Technique".

The reason why card mages are so versatile is that they can use cards to cast other spells that they themselves did not have mastery of.

The ten cards created by Hope possess considerable power and effects, but also require a significant amount of magic to activate, which suits Cana perfectly, allowing her to stop wasting her magic power.

Moreover, these ten cards were only Hope's first attempt. With this successful experience, he can confidently and boldly DIY even more powerful magic cards in the future.

Who knows, by then we might be able to create things like the Three Phantom Gods, the Three Evil Gods, or the Three Extreme Gods.

......

Kana closed the card case. She really liked Hope's gift, so she decided to celebrate. "Ginana, give me another bottle... no, a whole barrel of wine! I'm going to drink with Hope until we drop!"

After transforming back into a human from a snake, Ginna quickly adapted to life in Fairy Tail and is now a skilled guild receptionist.

She brought over a small bucket of liquor, but didn't hand it to Kana immediately. Instead, she looked at her suspiciously. "Kana, do you have any money left? It's not that I'm greedy, but Mirajane said she won't let you drink on credit anymore..."

Kana's expression froze instantly. She then remembered that the glass of wine she had just finished was bought with the last bit of money she had on her, and now her pockets were emptier than her face.

Failed!

When they sent Gildarts out to have some fun, they forgot to ask for money for the drinks!

My dearest father, please come back soon. I'll never find you annoying again...

Regretful, Kana turned her head and looked at Hope with pleading eyes.

You accepted my gift and now you want me to buy you drinks?

Hope couldn't bear to watch any longer, so she turned to Ginana and said, "No need for the alcohol, just give me a glass of juice and a glass of water for Kana."

"How stingy..." Kana pouted.

Hope smiled slightly, "I gave you ten powerful cards, and you didn't even reciprocate. Instead, you complained that I was stingy. Ginana, don't even bother serving her plain water."

"hey-hey......"

Kana immediately felt embarrassed, her voice lacking any confidence, "Didn't I already kiss you last time?"

"A kiss on the lips? Can it be used as points?"

Cana complained bitterly, "It's because I kissed you last time that I offended Erza and now Mirajane won't let me drink on credit anymore."

"If you don't have money for drinks, then go do some missions, okay?"

Hope crossed her arms. "And you talk like nobody's ever been in trouble. Erza almost chopped me up that day."

"But didn't you force a kiss on her in the end?"

Cana looked at Hope with disdain and said, "He got the benefits and is still acting innocent. Just like Gildarts, he's a scumbag."

"So what?" Hope said indifferently, after all, he thought so too, and his self-perception was now the same as Hong Shixian's.

Amidst their playful banter, Ginana brought over two glasses of juice, one for Hope and one for Kana, which she was treating herself.

Kana hugged Ginana and said, "You're so nice, unlike some people."

Gina smiled and sat down next to Kana. When she had some free time, she would chat with the guild members.

As Hope watched the girl chatting and laughing with Kana, he suddenly thought of Eric, who was now working for the council and who knew if he would ever atone for his sins.

"Ginana, has your memory returned at all?"

Ginana shook her head. She had also heard Lucy, who had also participated in the campaign against the Oración Seis, ask about it, but she really couldn't remember anything about the Oración Seis.

The aftereffects of that curse that could turn people into snakes were far too severe; even the 'memory' magic couldn't help Ginana regain her memories.

However, on the other hand, Ginana was turned into a snake at least ten years ago. At that time, she was just a child. Who could be so heartless?

Just then, Mirajane returned from shopping and immediately spotted the three people chatting in the lobby.

Upon seeing Mirajane, Hope eagerly ran over to greet her, skillfully taking the bags of daily necessities and groceries from her hands.

Mirajane looked him up and down. "Why are you being so attentive? I think you need something from me?"

"Haha, can't we at least show you some concern?"

Kana chimed in, "Don't believe him, Mirajane, that guy is the most selfish."

"Who said that? I have something good to share with her."

Hope mysteriously took a folded letter out of her pocket and opened it in front of them. Mirajane and Kana curiously crowded around.

This is a letter of authorization from the Freshman Council.

Ask Fairy Tail to investigate the demons that have appeared near the "Croa Grand Canyon". If there are demons, ask them to destroy them.

After receiving the commission, Makarov immediately handed it over to Hope, who spent his days idly in the guild, accumulating a huge pile of useless cards.

Mirajane read the letter again and sighed, "I never thought the council would ask us for help. After all, among the guilds now, only Fairy Tail has experience in dealing with demons."

Mirajane accepted Hope's invitation to form a team without hesitation.

Because of her inner conflict, she hasn't been active for over two years.

Since regaining her magic, Mira Jane had been looking for an exciting raid to warm up, but Hope came knocking on her door.

Don't underestimate this seemingly simple investigation task. Given the Council's pride and desire to save face, they would never have entrusted it to the Mage Guild if they could handle it themselves.

Traces of the devil?

Mirajane suspected that a demon existed in the Crobata Canyon, but the council couldn't handle it and was too embarrassed to say it directly, so they indirectly entrusted Fairy Tail with the task.

Chapter 198 Croba Canyon

"Alright, stop analyzing."

"Let me see how much the payment is."

Kana didn't care about the council's petty schemes; political maneuvering and power balance were far less important to her than a glass of wine.

She stared intently at the commission letter in Hope's hand, her eyes filled with anticipation. She was curious about how much the council was willing to pay for this commission.

When Cana saw the long string of numbers filled in the reward column, her eyes lit up immediately. "Twenty...twenty million J! Those old fogies in the council are so rich! How much wine can that buy!"

With a quick glance, Kana immediately had an idea.

She lunged at Hope, wrapping her arms tightly around his, practically hanging on him.

Kana leaned close to Hope's ear and said in a deliberately soft, teasing voice, "Good brother, count me in on this mission too~ You see, I'm short on cash lately, I don't even have money to buy alcohol~"
