Fairy Tail: All Magic Converges in One Body

The system's voice sounded in my mind again.

[Successfully accelerated by 7 days, 8 hours, and 12 minutes]

[Crack complete. Congratulations, host, you have gained extraordinary power—the magic 'Divine Foot'!]

In an instant, Hope mastered the magic that greatly increased her running speed.

This breakthrough also allowed Hope to discover the rule: a complete magic crystal can accelerate the progress of the breakthrough by one day.

Looking at the remaining 22 magic crystals, he didn't hesitate and used them directly to break the "Wooden Shape".

Instantly, all 16 magic crystals were consumed.

The system's voice was also transmitted at almost the same time.

【ding~】

[Successfully accelerated by 15 days, 20 hours, and 36 minutes]

[Crack complete. Congratulations, host, you have gained extraordinary power—the magic 'Wood Shaping'!]

Having acquired two spells at once, Hope was quite satisfied and put "Receive Magic" (20 days) and "Plant Magic" (12 days) into the unlock slots before closing the system panel.

With the remaining six magic crystals tucked into his pocket, Hope greeted Kana, who was returning from buying alcohol, with a broad smile. "Kana, meeting you is truly my luck."

Kana was taken aback and subconsciously shook her head.

He wasn't drunk, so why is this guy suddenly praising himself?

It must be because of my irresistible charm.

Chapter 12 What kind of life-risking is this?

Hope was unaware of Kana's narcissism.

The two rested on two relatively intact stones in the ruins for a while. Hope suddenly said, "Kana, find an inn in Oshibana to rest. I don't think the Iron Forest will be locked down for too long."

Kana thought so too. After all, even if the council was useless, it was not something a small dark guild like Iron Forest would dare to provoke too much.

"I'll go find a hotel? What about you?"

Hope smiled, took out the recording magic crystal and the bottle of quick-acting heart medicine that Mirajane had given him, and waved them in front of her. "Of course I'm going to Clover City to find the guild master. Mirajane very kindly asked me to do that."

Kana looked at her with disdain, "I think you're just bewitched by Mirajane's beauty."

"Who said that? I'm just a womanizer."

Kana was amused by Hope's shamelessness, "You actually admitted it so openly!"

Oshibana City isn't far from Clover City; it takes about half an hour by magic train. Kana stared at Hope for a few seconds, then shrugged. "Fine, you can deliver the letter to the guild master yourself. But I didn't get to enjoy the wine at the event, so you'll have to treat me to a meal when we get back."

Hope readily agreed, "If it's just a drink, I'm fine with it."

"Tch, what a cheapskate!" Kana pouted.

After teasing Kana a couple more times, Hope left the city and went straight into the mountains outside the city.

Seeing that no one was around, he activated "Divine Speed".

You won't know until you try it, and you'll be amazed when you do.

After using "Divine Speed," Hope found that her speed easily surpassed Bolt's record. Moreover, this magic not only greatly increased running speed but also reduced the stamina consumption during the run.

Unfortunately, this magic can only increase speed; if it could directly strengthen both legs, it would truly be called "divine feet."

After Hope left, Kana didn't go to the hotel, but instead headed to a bar on the street.

Kana casually ordered two beers and listened silently to the patrons' discussion, which was full of anger over Iron Forest's destruction of the city and occupation of the train station, as well as dissatisfaction with the council's failure to send anyone to resolve the issue.

Kana strongly agrees with this.

The Magic Council is now run by a bunch of old fogies.

These people occupy their positions and refuse to relinquish power, while their own abilities have declined significantly, to the point that many countries and mage guilds are privately dissatisfied with the current leaders of the council.

However, there was no way around it; the Magic Council held a rather special position on the continent of Ishgar, and unless the council itself reformed, no one could interfere.

Of course, getting into the council is also a good option.

Unfortunately, no one has done this yet.

Just as Kana was listening to the uncles next door chatting about Old Wang in the city being cuckolded, a burly man excitedly pushed open the tavern door.

"Everyone! Something good is about to happen!"

"Fairy Tail mages are here to deal with those bastards from the Iron Forest!"

"The leader is the Fairy Queen!"

Watching a spectacle is a habit for most humans. When they hear that an S-class mage has appeared, especially the Fairy Queen who has been in the limelight for the past two years, they are naturally excited.

You know, the Fairy Queen's use of "dress-up magic" is like a magical girl transforming, and both men and women can't help but want to watch it several times.

Everyone couldn't sit still any longer and rushed to the train station. Witnessing the Fairy Queen's battle was worth it, even if it meant dying!

Kana naturally followed the crowd towards the train station.

However, to everyone's dismay, a massive wind wall enveloped the entire train station, making it difficult for even mages, let alone ordinary people, to break through its barrier.

Clanging and banging, along with screams, came from the other side of the wind wall.

Just as everyone was lamenting that they hadn't seen the Fairy Queen's battle, a powerful burst of magic erupted from inside the train station, followed by a wind-elemental magical strike that shattered the obstructing wind wall.

Appearing amidst the swirling winds was a red-haired girl dressed in light blue armor.

"It's the Fairy Queen!"

"Wow wow wow!"

"Your Majesty, I'm a fan of yours!"

"..."

For a time, the train station was like a scene from a fan meeting.

As a powerful female mage, Erza has never lacked admirers, but unfortunately, she is not a celebrity and doesn't care about fans.

The strong winds quickly subsided, revealing the train station, which had been severely damaged in the fierce battle. The onlookers couldn't help but take a deep breath at the sight of the Iron Forest Mages scattered on the ground.

Cana stepped out of the crowd and approached Erza, who was wearing the "Wind Emperor Armor." "Wow~ you've really made a splash."

"Kana, what are you doing here?"

Erza seemed quite surprised by Cana's appearance, but then asked, "Where are the Hopes? Is Lalabai in your hands?"

"Hope went to Clover City alone to find the Guild Master, and that broken flute is on him too." At this point, Cana suddenly felt something was off. How did Erza know he was with Hope? And what about Lalabai's existence...?

So that's how it is. Erza teamed up with Natsu and the others just to rub it in.

Cana immediately understood that it was, after all, a demon created by the legendary "Dark Mage," and even someone as powerful as Erza had to be careful.

To everyone's surprise, Erza's expression changed drastically upon hearing Cana's answer. "Oh no! Hope is in danger!"

Ignoring Cana's still bewildered expression, Erza pulled her and shoved her into the magical four-wheeled vehicle parked outside the train station.

Immediately afterwards, Erza stuffed Natsu, Gray, Lucy, and Happy into the room.

The magical four-wheeled vehicle quickly drove out of Oshibana City. As Erza drove, she explained the reason to the four people and the cat who were staring at each other in disbelief.

"Elrigol, who rules the Iron Forest, is not at the train station."

“I learned something from a member of the Iron Forest: Erigor actually set up a one-time positioning spell on Lalabai.”

"That Wind Mage, who's known as the 'Grim Reaper,' must be chasing after Hope right now!"

......

......

Just as Erza had predicted.

At this moment, Hope was blocked by a shirtless man wearing a battle skirt and holding a scythe, with wind walls blocking her way from all sides.

"I don't know how you got Lalabai from Kageyama."

In mid-air, Erigor, lifted up by wind magic, carried a scythe and looked down at Hope, saying, "But if you hand over Lalabai to me obediently, I will spare your life."

"Oh, then you can take it."

Before the threat could be finished, Eligoll saw the bartender throw a flute carved with a three-eyed skull at him.

Because it was so unexpected, Ericoer, caught off guard, hurriedly caught "Lalabai".

After examining it carefully and confirming that it was real, Eligoll looked back at Hope with a complicated expression, "You're just handing it over to me like this?"

Hope shrugged. "What else? I'm just a small-time bartender. How much do I earn in a month? Why would I risk my life?"

He makes a lot of sense...

Eric Gor gave Hope a deep look. He would have killed Hope whether he handed him over or not, but after hearing what he said, he suddenly didn't want to kill him anymore.

Watching Ericoer flee into the distance, Hope casually pulled a wooden flute from his sleeve, its shape exactly the same as the one he had just given to Ericoer.

"Hehe, you got fooled."

"The 'Wooden Shape' is easy to use."

Chapter 13 The Unconventional Presidents

Looking in the direction where Ericoer disappeared, Hope played with the real "Lalabai" in her hand, a sly smile playing on her lips.

We need to hurry on our way.

"Otherwise, it would be a shame to miss out on a great show."

Brushing the dust off his clothes, Hope activated "Divine Speed" again, his figure weaving through the roads like the wind, speeding towards Clover City.

This time, everything went smoothly along the way.

More than an hour later, Hope finally arrived in Clover City.

Actually, "Croba" is the town's real name, but because the terrain around Croba resembles three leaves, over time everyone started calling the town "Clover."

I had no interest in appreciating the scenery and headed straight for the routine meeting hall on the north side of the city.
