Fairy Tail: I'm invincible when I receive anime characters!

It took Qi Yan about three days to get back to the guild. The whole trip took about a week. He completed an S-rank mission in a week, which is quite efficient.

"Everyone! I'm back!!"

Qi Yan returned to the guild. Although the guild was not yet fully established, it still felt like home, unlike anything he had experienced outside.

When Mira saw Qi Yan return safely, her face immediately lit up with joy. Although Qi Yan was very strong, she was still a little worried about him going out on an S-rank mission.

Qi Yan is back!

"Welcome back!!"...

"Hey! I've been gone for a week, and the guild's development seems to be lagging behind! Have you guys been slacking off again?"

Qi Yan glanced at the guild and found that it was not much different from when he left. The guild was full of lazybones, and most of them probably didn't take their work seriously.

Gray argued, "Everyone's on missions, so there's less work to do. Besides, the progress is already pretty good. Don't you see the outer walls are almost finished? And you're on missions too, so what right do you have to criticize others?"

Natsu looked at Qi Yan excitedly and said, "Qi Yan, you've completed another S-rank mission?"

"With me in charge, it'll be a piece of cake."

Happy flew up to Qi Yan and asked curiously, "How much money did you make this time?!"

"1500 J".

The Giant King readily handed over the reward of 1500 million J to Qi Yan. Although the Giant Kingdom did not have much interaction with humans outside, there was still some communication. Some bold and meticulous merchants opened up a trade route to trade some goods. The kingdom would naturally store some foreign exchange for emergencies.

"1500 million J!!"

Lucy's eyes widened when she heard the amount. Although she already knew that Qi Yan's earning power was incredibly exaggerated, she was still shocked.

"I wish Qi Yan was the one I teamed up with!"

Lucy said that she and Natsu had done two missions in the past few days, but most of the money they earned went into the bank, and the little left was only enough to make ends meet. Now she was worried about next month's rent.

If she teamed up with Qi Yan, even just one S-rank mission would earn her enough money to last her a year.

Mira chuckled and said, "You should be glad you didn't team up with Qi Yan. Every mission Qi Yan undertakes is deadly to others."

Because of her close relationship with Qi Yan, Mira often heard him talk about the missions he had done, the difficulty of which even made her, an S-class mage, tremble with fear.

"Uh...that's true!"

Lucy felt very relaxed when she went on the last S-rank mission with Qi Yan, but not all S-rank missions are so easy, and she still cherishes her life.

Mira came to Qi Yan's side and asked, "Welcome back. What would you like to eat?"

"The usual is fine. Where's the chairman?"

Mira smiled and said, "The president has been called away by the council again."

Qi Yan knew what he meant when he heard this: "Being the chairman must be really tough."

Only the old man could allow them to be so presumptuous, even if they had to take the blame and write self-criticisms. They'd rather be dogs than live like fairies.

"Qi Yan, Qi Yan, tell me quickly, what's this S-rank mission like?"

"Yes! Tell me!"

Natsu, Gray, Elfman, and many others gathered around Qi Yan, eager to know what kind of S-rank mission Qi Yan would be undertaking this time.

Within the Fairy Tail guild, S-rank mages can only obtain S-rank quests from Qi Yan.

"This time! This time I went to the Giant Kingdom located in the eastern part of the continent of Ishgar..."

Qi Yan recounted his experiences in the Giant Kingdom, which drew gasps and exclamations from the crowd. They had never imagined that such enormous creatures as giants and trolls existed in the world, standing over thirty meters tall. Wouldn't each of them be a guild leader? How powerful must such a country be?

Qi Yan also talked about the guild leader's affairs. When the guild members heard that the guild leader had actually confessed his feelings to the female giant, they all exclaimed in surprise.

Marcao exclaimed with admiration, "As expected of the guild master! Even the Titaness..."

Just then, a cough came from behind them.

When everyone turned around, they saw that Chairman Makarov had appeared behind them at some point, and his face looked very unpleasant.

"President! You're back!"

"You bunch of brats! If you're so bored, go do some work! Don't just hang around here!"

Upon seeing Makarov's pale face, the crowd immediately dispersed.

"You brat, don't listen to that guy Haiya's nonsense. It was clearly that kid who liked Lina, but he was too scared to help me. How are Haiya and Lina doing?"

"Yes, they are both doing well. One is the king and the other is the queen. They look to be in their early thirties and are both very healthy."

Upon hearing this, Makarov's eyes also revealed a nostalgic look: "I see! It's good that they're doing well."

He missed his two friends just as much, but they were in the western part of the continent of Ishgar, while the Giant Kingdom was in the eastern part.

The journey was too long, and most importantly, he had taken over as the guild master of Fairy Tail, and now he had something even more to protect, so naturally he couldn't leave.

"Hey kid, come with me for a second, I have something to tell you."

Qi Yan was taken aback. Judging from the old man's expression, it was obviously something important, so he followed him.

The two arrived at the first basement floor of the guild, one after the other. This place had been preserved when the guild was destroyed and had not been damaged.

Makarov opened an underground entrance, and a long staircase led down to a point even lower.

"Huh? Guild leader, there's another place like this under the guild!"

"You little rascal, there's a lot you don't know. Just come along."

Soon, the two arrived in front of a large door.

Makarov flicked his finger, and a magic circle appeared on the door.

Then the door slowly opened, revealing a spacious underground hall to the two of them. At the very back of the hall stood a huge magic crystal, inside which was sealed a naked blonde girl.

"This...this is..."

Qi Yan was taken aback at first, but he quickly realized what it was, and his expression changed.

Makarov said with a serious expression:

"This is our guild's biggest secret—Lumen Starshine."

Chapter 125 I really don't want to be the president!

"The girl sealed inside Lumen Starlight is Mavis Viviamilio, the first guild master of our Fairy Tail guild."

"It also has another name: Fairy Heart."

"This is a hidden great magic that surpasses the three great magics of fairies. Its core mechanism is to automatically convert natural magic into its own magic, thereby achieving an unlimited supply of magic."

"In other words, as long as you possess it, you possess infinite magic power and can use magic infinitely."

Makarov explained to Qi Yan, but Qi Yan knew what it was the moment he saw it. As someone who had watched the Fairy Tail anime, he naturally knew about Fairy Heart and its abilities. But the question was why the old man was showing him this, which gave him a very bad feeling.

"President...President, why are you showing me this?!"

"Because you will become the next guild master of Fairy Tail, Qi Yan."

Qi Yan was stunned when he heard this.

"what?!"

"Guild leader, are you kidding me?! I... I've only been in the guild for a year. Guild leader? I can't do it, I definitely can't!"

Qi Yan was about to run back when he said that. He was really panicked this time. Although doing missions could be troublesome at times, he actually enjoyed the life of doing missions and getting rewards.

Most importantly, when he accepts and completes missions, the system will give him a lottery reward. He can rely on the reward to draw cards. What's the point of life if you don't draw cards?

No way! I absolutely cannot be the president!

Qi Yan hadn't even taken two steps when he was grabbed back by a giant hand. It was Makarov using giant magic, his hand enlarging to grab Qi Yan.

Qi Yan was speechless. Lately, he felt like he and the giants were clashing; he had been caught by them several times.

"Hey kid, why are you running away?"

"President, I really don't want to be the president!"

Makarov immediately became somewhat annoyed: "What? Is the position of chairman really that bad?"

"Yeah! Not only do we have to be in charge of the guild every day, but if guild members cause trouble, we have to go to the council to get scolded, write self-criticisms, deal with the interpersonal relationships of guild members, and attend regular meetings. All sorts of things are so annoying."

Makarov had to admit that Qi Yan's words had struck a chord with him.

Qi Yan looked at Makarov pitifully and said, "President, I'm still young, only nineteen years old. How can you bear to let me suffer like this? I just finished an S-rank mission and came back, and then I heard this terrible news. How can you bear it?"

"So you really have the heart to watch an old man like me, almost ninety years old and about to be buried, suffer like this?"

"You can pass the position of guild leader to someone else, like Uncle Gildarts. Isn't he the strongest mage in the guild?"

"Kildarts went to do a century-long mission. I don't know if he'll come back. Even if he does, given his personality, he definitely won't want to become the guild master."

"What about Mistgang?"

“Mistgang is not good at communicating and is not familiar with anyone in the guild.”

"Erza, Erza is very authoritative, even I am afraid of her."

"Erza is indeed a good choice, but she's too young, still a girl..."

Makarov did consider Erza. He had watched her grow up and knew her better. But Erza was, after all, a girl, and becoming the guild master would be a bit of a waste of her time. Girls, after all, eventually have to get married.

Qi Yan is different. He and Mira fell in love and eventually joined the Fairy Tail guild together, which made them a very good match.

"I'm the same age as Erza! If all else fails, I'll just pass it on to Laxus, he's your grandson after all."

"That brat is even worse. If we pass it on to him, he'll make a mess of the guild."

"Then you should keep working hard and keep going."

"No, I'm too old, my body..."

"What are you talking about? You're only in your eighties, the prime of your life."

Makarov patted Qi Yan on the head.

"You brat! Don't try to fool me! I may be getting old, but I'm not senile! I've been thinking about this for a week, and I think you're more suitable."

"..." Qi Yan remained silent.

Makarov looked at Qi Yan helplessly and asked, "You're really that averse to being the guild master of Fairy Tail?"

Qi Yan gave Makarov a look, letting Makarov figure it out for himself.

"In this case……"

Qi Yan, sensing a glimmer of hope, said, "Forget it!"

"Dream on! In that case, I'll work for another two years. You're the probationary president now, and you'll take over as president in two years. That way, your qualifications will be more than enough. You're not allowed to refuse!"

Makarov also considered it for a week before making the decision. He was already quite old, and Lumen Starlight was the most important secret of the Fairy Tail guild.

His health was still not good, so just in case, he still had to pass on this secret that only the chairman was qualified to know.

The most suitable candidate is actually Gildarts. He watched Gildarts grow up since he was a child, and Gildarts is also the most senior member of Fairy Tail guild.

But it's uncertain whether Gildarts will return from his century-long quest. Even if he does, given that brat's personality, he certainly won't stay in the guild. This secret is only for the guild leader to know, so Qi Yan is the most suitable candidate right now.

"……All right!"

Since the old man had said so, Qi Yan had no choice but to agree. Two years—the old man could never have guessed how much would change in two years.

Makarov smiled when Qi Yan agreed, now he had resolved a major life issue.

As an old man who has lived for over eighty years, Makarov is quite confident in his ability to judge people. Although Qi Yan, this brat, is sometimes unreliable.

But people need to be compared. Compared to those even more unreliable brats in the guild, this kid is already very outstanding.

In the evening, Qi Yan and Mila walked home together, hand in hand along the river. Love is like a thin sheet of paper; once you're brave enough to break through it, everything else will fall into place naturally.

"What's wrong? Aren't you always happy when you come back from a mission? Why do you look so down today?"

The observant Mira noticed that Qi Yan's mood was off; he seemed a bit down, completely different from his state after returning from the mission.

Qi Yan then told Mira about Makarov's intention to pass the guild leadership to him, but of course, he concealed the fact that Lumen Starshine was hidden in the guild's underground.

Upon hearing Qi Yan's words, Mira couldn't help but cover her mouth and exclaim in surprise:

"The president has nominated you as the next president?!"
