"How...how could this be...I don't like him. How can someone who doesn't consider his guildmates at all become a guild leader?"
"That depends on the president's decision. The president won't say a word about the selection of the next president."
The president is quite old and should have reached retirement age long ago. Mira knows the president's health very well, so to prevent forgetting, she gives the president his medication on time every day.
Normally, the president should have arranged for a successor long ago, but she had never heard the president mention it.
A crescent moon hung in the sky, illuminating the entire Magnolia.
Makarov sat on the guild's beam, admiring the moon in the sky and drinking beer. He was extremely content, and there was nothing happier in his life than this.
"Retirement...ah..."
Makarov also recalled what his friend Yakima had said during the day. He actually wanted to protect the guild's children for a while longer, but the children's growth rate exceeded his expectations. Before he knew it, they had all become mages capable of standing on their own.
"The guild has been completely revamped, so the guild leader should be changed soon."
"Laxus, that guy has serious psychological problems."
He had also heard about what happened in the guild during the day from Mira. Laxus wanted to invite Qi Yan to create the strongest guild, but Qi Yan refused.
"Kildarts...no!"
Gildarts is indeed the best candidate for guild leader, but he has a free spirit and has spent much more time outside than in the guild since he was a child. If you ask him to stay in the guild, he will definitely run away.
“Mistgang… This guy is completely bad at communicating. No one in the guild has ever seen him before, so he lacks the trust and prestige of the guild members.”
"Erza, Erza is indeed a good candidate, but she is still too young."
"Then there's only one person left."
Among the S-rank mages, Qi Yan joined the guild the latest, having only been a member for a year.
Logically speaking, it's quite inappropriate for someone who has only been a member for such a short time to become the guild leader, since seniority is also a factor in becoming a guild leader.
However, Qi Yan was qualified in all other aspects: character, personality, prestige, and strength.
This kid, at such a young age, is already strong enough to defeat Joseph, one of the Ten Wizard Saints. At the rate at which he's improving, it won't be long before I'm no match for him.
He had never seen a young person with such extraordinary talent.
Such talent can only be matched by Serena, who is ranked first among the Ten Wizard Saints.
The only downside is that they are too young and have too little experience.
But these are not major problems.
"Let's find some time to have a good talk with this kid."
Over the next few days, Qi Yan continued to work on the construction site, which allowed him to exercise and contribute to the guild's development, making his days quite easy.
"Qi Yan!!"
Just then, a voice rang out. Qi Yan looked up and saw Mira waving at him, looking very happy. Mira quickly ran towards him.
"Qi Yan, I have good news! Guess what it is?"
"Good news? Then I guess you want to marry me."
Mira's face immediately turned slightly red: "What nonsense are you talking about? That's not it. Look, it's an 'S' rank mission."
Chapter 113 The Kingdom of Giants
Mira pulled a sealed bag from behind her back, marked with a large red 'S'.
Upon seeing this, Qi Yan's face immediately lit up with a look of surprise. Although the work in the guild was quite fulfilling, doing S-rank missions was definitely more exciting.
Qi Yan quickly took it: "Mira, haven't the others seen it yet?"
Qi Yan noticed that the packaging bag was still sealed with beeswax, indicating that it hadn't been opened yet.
"This... I just got it and came over to give it to you..."
Mira then remembered that the normal procedure was for her to show it to Makarov, register it, and then have him paste it onto the S-rank mission-specific commission board on the second floor, where the S-rank mage who saw the mission would then choose whether to accept it.
But when she saw the S-level mission, she immediately thought of Qi Yan and gave the mission directly to him.
Qi Yan was deeply moved when he saw Mira. He immediately hugged Mira's waist and gave her a big kiss on the cheek.
"mua!!"
"Thanks, Mira."
Qi Yan took the mission and went to find Makarov.
Mira was stunned by Qi Yan's sudden action. After she came to her senses, her face turned bright red, and she quickly looked around, afraid that someone had seen her.
But as soon as she looked up, she saw that almost everyone in the guild was staring at her. Obviously, everyone had seen her, which made her extremely embarrassed. She covered her face with her hands and ran away.
"So Qi Yan really is with Mira after all!"
"They defeated Mira so quickly? Is this the power of an S-class mage?"
"What does this have to do with strength?"
"He's not even an S-class mage, what right does he have to pursue Mira?"
"That's true."
Seeing this scene in the guild wasn't too surprising. Although some things haven't been officially announced, everyone can tell from the little things in daily life.
When Mira was in the guild, whether talking, chatting, or working, she would always show a slight preference for Qi Yan. You can't hide the look in someone's eyes when you like them; your gaze will be drawn to them involuntarily.
Qi Yan took the letter of authorization and went directly to Makarov.
"President, I want to do this job."
Makarov was somewhat surprised. Wasn't this kid the type who only did S-rank missions? Why has he changed his mind now?
Looking down, I saw a file folder with a big red 'S' written on it.
"puff----!"
"You brat, when did you get an S-rank mission?"
"Mira gave it to me."
"Mira... daughters really are hard to keep at home once they grow up!"
Makarov shook his head helplessly. He knew that Mira and Qi Yan were having an affair, but he didn't expect that Mira would secretly give the S-rank mission to Qi Yan, without even knowing what the mission was.
Makarov opened the document bag and took out the authorization letter inside.
[Mission Title: Please Save the Children!]
[Mission Rank: S!]
[Mission Objective: The children of the Kingdom of Ebaf have been kidnapped by villains. Please, powerful mages, rescue them.]
[Mission Reward: 1500 million J!]
Makarov's expression changed slightly when he saw the mission.
Seeing Makarov's expression, Mira asked with some concern, "What's wrong, Guild Master? Is there a problem with this mission?"
If there were any problems, she would advise Qi Yan not to do it. After all, S-rank missions are extremely dangerous. No matter how strong Qi Yan is, he is still just one person. Moreover, Qi Yan's magic power is consumed very quickly. When his magic power is exhausted, he will be no different from an ordinary person, or even worse.
Makarov shook his head: "No, there's no problem. Actually, I'm quite familiar with this Kingdom of Aibaf."
"The Kingdom of Aybaf?"
Mira was a little confused. She had never heard of this name before, and most people in the guild hadn't heard of it either.
"Well... it's normal that you haven't heard of it. Ebaf is an extremely mysterious and closed country that rarely communicates with outsiders, but they have a nickname that you may have heard of."
"Kingdom of Giants!!"
Makarov revealed the alternative name for the Kingdom of Ebaf.
"Kingdom of Giants!!!"
Everyone in the guild was startled.
"Giants? Do legendary giants really exist?!"
"Aren't giants just legends?!"
"Dragons are legends, you know. There are dragons, so it's normal for there to be giants too!"...
Upon hearing Makarov's words, the guild members began to discuss among themselves. The legend of giants had been circulating all over the world, and even their guild leader, Makarov, used giant magic.
"The Kingdom of Giants is extremely powerful. Although giants cannot use magic, their combat strength is greater than that of most mages."
The Fairy Tail guild members wholeheartedly agreed with Makarov's point. This giant was practically equivalent to the guild master directly casting Giant Magic. Giant Magic is a high-level spell, and one can only imagine how terrifying the power of the Giant Kingdom is with its vast population.
“Even such a powerful kingdom has encountered trouble, this matter must be serious. Qi Yan, you need to be extra careful if you are going to take on this mission.”
[Ding! S-rank mission successfully accepted: Please save the children!]
Qi Yan was in a great mood after hearing the system notification.
"Don't worry, President, I'm the most cautious person I can be."
"Then I'll set off."
Qi Yan made a heart shape with his hands at Mira, then skipped away. After not doing an S-rank mission for a long time, doing one again made him feel incredibly refreshed.
Mira couldn't help but smile slightly when she saw Qi Yanbi's heart-shaped handprint. Makarov gave Mira a disapproving look and said, "Don't give this brat preferential treatment like this again next time."
Mira stuck out her little tongue shyly.
She knew it was inappropriate, but she didn't think too much about it at the time. When she saw that it was an S-level mission, she instinctively gave it to Qi Yan immediately.
Actually, it wouldn't make much difference if we didn't do it this way. Right now, Qi Yan is the only S-rank mage in the guild, so the mission will naturally be done by Qi Yan. She was just too hasty.
Qi Yan went home, packed his luggage, and set off lightly. This mission was located in a relatively far place, almost on the other side of the Ishgar continent.
Qi Yan first took a train to the port of Harugeon. It was already late, so he rested for the night in Harugeon. The next day, he picked up Ace at the port and sailed Ace's small boat to the near-sea estuary opposite the continent of Ishgar.
After resting for a night and recovering fully, Ulquiorra is received on the third day. Using Ulquiorra's flying ability, they fly directly across the Taliman Canyon and finally arrive at the Kingdom of Giants.
Qi Yan completed all of this in less than three days, but if he had followed the normal itinerary, this journey would have taken at least a month and a half.
At this moment, Qi Yan stood in front of the walls of the Giant Kingdom and couldn't help but sigh.
"Wow, it's huge!!"
Chapter 114 Observations in the Land of Giants
Qi Yan had seen quite a bit of the world in the past year and considered himself to be very knowledgeable. He had seen the hundreds of meters high walls of Sobea and danced with demons.
However, the high walls of the Kingdom of Sobea are nothing compared to this. Qi Yan estimates that the city walls here are at least 300 meters high.
Besides the high walls, what shocked Qi Yan was the guards at the gate. They must have been twenty or thirty meters tall, and just standing there, they looked like a mountain.
Just as Qi Yan was in a daze, he was suddenly grabbed by a large hand.
"what?!"
The sudden accident caught Qi Yan off guard. Just as he was about to use the receiving magic, he heard a childish voice.
"Mom! Look what I found?! A little dwarf!"
Qi Yan looked up and saw a giant child with a snotty nose, nearly ten meters tall. As for why it was a child, you could tell from its innocent face, its snotty nose, and the fact that it was missing several teeth.
"Bri, what are you doing? Let go of him right now!"
A woman over twenty meters tall saw Qi Yan being grabbed by her own mischievous child and quickly spoke up.
"I'm sorry, are you alright? That brat, Bully, he hit me too hard. I'm so sorry."
The giantess knelt down and apologized to Qi Yan.
"Bri, apologize now!!"
"sorry!"
Qi Yan patted his clothes and said, "It's nothing."
"It's good that you're alright! Hello, my name is Ella, this is my child, Buli. You're human, right? That's quite rare, that a human has actually come to the Kingdom of Aibaf."
"Hmm, what? Do humans rarely come here?"
"Yes! On the one hand, humans are afraid of giants, and on the other hand, there is that great canyon in the Hengduan Mountains, which very few people can pass through."
