A magic merchant infiltrating Fairy Tail

Gray and his two companions were a little embarrassed and wanted to explain: "...Um...actually..."

"Do it now!" Kira interrupted him bluntly. "Have you forgotten? These people won't believe the truth we tell them, so just do it! They may have given us the mission, but how we do it is up to us mages!"

"Often, ignorance, foolishness, prejudice, and superstition can affect a client's emotions and judgment, but we must not be misled by this. Instead, we should think about the reasons for the problem and what to do next! We cannot blindly follow the advice of those who are ignorant. Remember, we are the professionals!"

The three nodded, seemingly understanding but not quite.

Sure enough, although they were only a year or two younger than him, how could these guys who had grown up in warm families compare to him, a big shot who had traveled all over the country with an adventurer team since he was a young age?

Upon hearing Kira's words, the villagers all showed expressions of joy: "Great! The curse can finally be lifted!"

"Thank you so much! But what do you need me to do?"

Haha, you know it's difficult to destroy the moon, huh?

Kira inwardly scoffed, but his face exuded a reassuring confidence: "Leave everything to me!"

Looking at the purple membrane in the sky, Kira seemed to remember something and said to Cana, "Oh right, I promised to show you the power of that card set, so you'd better watch carefully!"

This statement piqued the curiosity of all three, especially Kana.

Kira has spared no effort in promoting his cards along the way, and now we can finally see just how powerful they really are.

Actually, Cana had a pretty good idea about Kira's magical items, after all, she had been using his cards for so many years. They were indeed powerful, but also incredibly expensive.

As for those cards, all Kana can say is, buy them early and you'll be broke; buy them late and you'll be miserable.

The magic shop, run by the renowned "Sage" of the magic world, has an unimaginably high monthly income!

The exquisitely crafted magical weapons endorsed by Kira, like real estate, have seen their prices rise rapidly, reaching exorbitant levels on the market every year.

Not only within the Kingdom of Fiore, but also in other surrounding countries, many magic guilds, adventurer guilds, and bounty guilds regard the weapons, armor, and various magical items produced by 'Hope Hut' as treasures. In addition, due to their limited quantity, they are even more precious.

Therefore, she didn't believe Kira's nonsense in the guild before, such as "those cards are for Cana," because everyone knew in their hearts that Kira's items would sell well.

Kira turned and walked to a clearing nearby, took out the cards he had prepared beforehand from his pocket, looked up at the sky, and held the cards in his hand. Everything was ready.

He struck a super cool pose for the villagers, grinned, and said, "Watch closely, this is an attack that can shatter the sky in one strike!"

"Oh oh oh!!!" the villagers shouted, full of anticipation.

Rocky and his two companions were also keeping a close eye on the cards in Kira's hand.

Silence...

wait……

Everyone stared blankly at Kira, who remained in the pose of holding the card and gazing at the sky, and a full minute passed like that...

"What the hell are you doing?!" (Third angry shout)

Kira's eyes narrowed, and he gave a soft shout: "They're here!"

"Ok?"

Silence...waiting...

"If you're going to do it, then hurry up!"

"I can't stand you!"

"Don't pull me! I'm going to beat him up today!"

Although the villagers were also nervous, they were relatively patient, pulling back the three who were about to attack Kira, afraid of disturbing Kira's 'Shattered Moon' technique: "Please calm down, all you magicians. That master must be finding the right angle to unleash his attack, so please don't be impulsive! Don't disturb that master and destroy the moon!"

Kira seemed to have made a decision, and shouted, "It's the one I've chosen!"

"Go! Shattering Moon Cannon!"

He threw the card in his hand into the air with force, and the card shot towards the moon overhead like a swift arrow!

"So you were thinking of a move name?!" ×N

The flying cards emitted a dazzling white light in the air. At the same time, the surrounding energy surged, whipping up an irresistible gale. For a moment, sand and stones flew everywhere, and everyone almost lost their footing. Those who were lighter even showed signs of floating.

Chapter 22 Mission Completed

The platinum cloak fluttered in the wind, making a whooshing sound.

Kira stared intently at the cards in the air, seemingly pleased with his own item or its name.

The magic floating in the air converged towards the white light, as if to power up a cannonball about to be launched, compressing it again and again in a place invisible to the naked eye...

"What is this frenzied magic?"

"And the concentration of magic power... it's so strong!"

"Just one card, yet it possesses such powerful offensive force!"

"Is this... the power of an S-class mage?"

The three were surprised, and the villagers were even more excited.

"Wow! That magician might actually be able to destroy the moon!"

"I entrust everything to you; please lift the curse on this island!"

Suddenly, the wind stopped, the surrounding magic ceased to flow, and the magic absorbed by the card within the white light stopped compressing.

Like a raging torrent bursting its banks, all the magic seemed to find an outlet, converging into a beam, condensing into a cannon, and the light instantly transformed into a thick white beam, shooting towards the purple moon overhead!

This power looks like it could really shatter the moon!

boom!!!

The light cannon accurately hit the purple moon in the air!

Crackling sounds!

The sky shattered! Revealing the real, bright, and enchanting white moon behind the gas membrane!

Apart from the four people who already knew the reason, everyone else present was stunned.

"What happened?" All the villagers were stunned, but then, memories came flooding back.

Oh, I remember now, it seems we really were demons! How could something so absurd happen? Oh well, it's great that we can recover!

Wait, so Bobo didn't die either? (Bobo is the village chief's son, the guy the villagers killed because they thought he was possessed by a demon.)

Although my memory is still a bit messy, everyone is happy!

Yay! Let's have a party!

These villagers are so simple and unpretentious...

The banquet lasted for a full day and two nights. Halfway through, Bobo, the son of the village chief who had left the island, returned, much to everyone's delight.

After a hearty meal and a banquet on Galna Island, and a period of rest thereafter, the fatigue, hunger, and injuries accumulated from the battle with Leon and the others were completely healed.

Of the four, Rocky and Cana only suffered minor injuries, Kira was completely unharmed, and only Gray was more seriously injured, but he was young, healthy, and had a strong recovery ability, and was full of energy again the next day.

So, they weren't actually that tired or injured, but they could eat quite a lot when it came to hunger.

The following day, after the villagers delivered their payment, Kira and his companions bid farewell to the hospitable demons amidst laughter and cheers.

On the sailboat leaving Garna Island...

"I never expected that they were all kind people, even though they were demons."

"That's right, not a penny less than 700 million J, plus this golden Protoss key, they're so hospitable! I wish every mission could have a client like this." Kira nodded as he counted the money.

"Hey, shouldn't my 7 J be in here?"

"Huh? Didn't we say yesterday that there wasn't any?"

"What are you saying, you swindler? Hey, Gray! At least say something!"

"Kira, actually this money..."

"Ok?"

"No...it's nothing..."

"Let's just leave Gray be, after all, he was the one who agreed not to it, we didn't agree to it!"

"that is!"

"A little bit..."

"You want to fight, huh?"

In the end, the kind-hearted Kira still gave everyone 7 J, including Gray. After all, it was they who were fighting to the death against Leon.

Sigh, I should take good care of the chives I grew myself. I'm still waiting for them to continue delivering them to me... oh wait, I mean, to help me make money.

Let's take stock of our haul...

Mission reward: 700 million J + key, received;

Project Moon Drop: Gray and Leon reconcile and start anew, completed;

Fun game: Successfully outwitted everyone with Deliola;

Material Collection: Moon Power, obtained one point; Demon Factor, successfully collected!

Card marketing: Still needs improvement...

Damn it! What should have been a perfect mission was ruined by that woman, Kana, at the very last moment...

Hmph, no way! I'm only one step away from the perfect mission, I won't be satisfied until I sell it!

After taking another sip of her drink, Kana suddenly felt like she was being watched by something...

……

Just as Kira and the others finished their mission on Karna Island and were returning to Fairy Tail...

In a tavern in Ghost Lotus City, Erza, who had just finished a mission, stopped to rest temporarily, carrying a cart full of luggage.

The noisy atmosphere around her made Erza a little uncomfortable. A rude and offensive voice rang out in the store.

"Help! Where's my wine?!"

Erza turned around and saw several fierce-looking men gathered around a table. The one speaking was a guy with three long beards on each side of his face who looked very arrogant.
