Chapter 754: Pre-War Preparations
In a huge palace, wizards from various guilds were munching on the food prepared for them by the palace chefs.
It was now lunchtime, and in order to prepare for the dragons that might appear at any time, the wizards naturally could not leave the venue to go to Crocus for lunch. And since the king had entrusted them to stay and help resist the dragons, it was only natural that he would provide everyone with a meal.
"The cooking skills of the palace chefs are different. They are much better than what we usually eat in the guild..."
Because of the match with Lacade just now, Kira is already starving, and everything he eats seems extremely delicious, not to mention that the food in front of him is really great!
However, just after he finished saying this, Mira's familiar gentle voice came from behind him: "Haha...really? Then don't order food in the guild in the future!"
Kira's body froze for a moment, looking embarrassed.
Because Mira is not only the housekeeper of the guild, but also the head chef. The food he orders in the guild is basically made by Mira.
He looked around carefully and found that old Thomas was discussing his future plans with Makarov, and Princess Emerald was chatting and laughing with Lucy. Neither of them noticed this side. Kira then felt relieved and whispered to Mira.
"Well... these are just polite words! I'm only saying this to give the king face. We are all adults now, you can understand, right?"
The adult world is like this, full of falsehood and pain.
Even though I don’t like it in my heart, I still force myself to say I like it; even though I think it doesn’t look good, I still force myself to say it looks good; even though I don’t want to work overtime in my heart, I still have to bite the bullet and tell my boss that I can accept it; even though I have greeted the client’s family hundreds of times in my heart, I still have to smile and say that I will change it immediately...
Kira felt that Mira was already 21 years old and was the eldest sister who had raised her younger siblings since childhood, so she should be very clear about this.
Sure enough, Mira smiled sweetly, tilted her head and said softly: “Yeah… I totally understand!”
She really didn't understand!
No, it should be said that I don’t want to understand!
Adults also have another kind of pain: the other party won’t listen even though you have explained it to them; the other party clearly knows their situation after listening, but just won’t accept it; the other party clearly accepts it, but still feels uncomfortable in their heart…
Looking at Mira's back as she turned and left, Kira sighed helplessly: "Girls are really troublesome..."
It’s better to make money!
The short break before the war was not only for the wizards to fill their stomachs, but also to deepen the relationships among them.
You know, they may be comrades fighting side by side in the future. If they don't have a certain degree of understanding of their comrades, they will not be able to entrust their lives to others when they encounter danger, which directly affects the outcome of the battle.
Those who stayed behind were all wizards with certain combat capabilities. Those who were weaker or even completely unable to fight returned to Kurokas first to cooperate with the soldiers in evacuating the city residents.
Because of the prophecy, King Thomas had prepared for the residents of Kurokas to be relocated at any time a few days ago. However, he was not stupid enough to directly tell them that "Ten Thousand Dragons Invaded the Territory", as that would cause panic, so the reason he used was a magic military exercise.
Kira came to Alzak, the man who had just become a father. At this moment, he was looking down at the food in his hands, thinking silently, with a frown on his face, as if he was praying for something.
"You should have gone back with Biska! Let's not talk about whether you can fight with all your heart in your current state. Even if you can fight without distraction, you won't be as useful as those two brats, Stinger and Roger. Besides, Aska was just born. If you accidentally died at this time, we won't be able to explain to Biska and Aska."
Arzak smiled when he heard this. After becoming a father, he was obviously much more mature than before. In response to Kira's reminder, he only answered with one sentence.
"But I'm a wizard from Fairy Tail..."
Boom! !
Before he could finish his sentence, Kira punched Alzak on the head: "Idiot! Speak properly, why are you writing such sad literature?!"
I hate this the most. I was talking to him nicely, but he suddenly said something like this. Is he afraid that he will live too long? This is only in the world of Fairy Tail. Even another anime, if you say something full of flags like this, you will only end up waiting to die.
Arzak covered his head and stared at Kira's back depressedly: "It was you who brought up this topic first..."
It turns out that the mages of 'Fairy Tail' are the most infectious in the entire Kingdom of Fiore. No matter what time or place, they can assimilate the people around them into something they shouldn't be.
At banquets like this, Fairy Tail's favorite thing to do is to make noise, loud noise, and even if people around them give them all kinds of strange looks, the wizards of this guild don't care. They just focus on eating, drinking and having fun, self-centered and proudly, without any scruples.
After eating and drinking, Kira quietly left the palace, walked along the passage, and soon arrived at the venue of the Great Magic Fighting Martial Arts Show. There were quite a few people here, in addition to the kingdom's guards, there were also several familiar wizards , who were from various magic guilds who stayed here to keep abreast of the latest developments.
Of course, they came here after eating their fill, and the shift system had to be strictly followed at times like this. After all, the wizards who were about to fight could not be left hungry.
It was afternoon, the sun was shining brightly overhead, white clouds were floating, the breeze was gentle, and the golden sunlight spread over most of the venue. A group of magicians stood in twos and threes on the stone corridor, leaning against the low wall, talking or staring silently at the stone sculptures in the four corners of the venue.
"This feeling is just like waiting for the end of the world!"
As Kira sighed, he caught a glimpse of two figures, one black and one white, in the distance. They were Zeref and Mavis.
"These two have abandoned their two children to date alone again. What an unreliable pair of parents! I wonder if Lacade's 'kiss, hug and lift' is coming... I guess not, right?"
If it were me, I wouldn't do such a thing to such a grown man. If it was a child, I might be able to accept it... although Kira doesn't like children.
Just then, a sound of footsteps came from behind. Kira turned around and found that the person coming was Wendy No. 5!
"Why are you here?"
Kira was a little surprised. A person who didn't belong to this world actually showed up openly. Was it really okay?
Wendy No. 5 smiled when she heard this, "I came to World No. 7 to stop the changes in World No. 5. Isn't it normal for me to be here?"
This feeling...is not like Wendy!
"Erin?"
The other party nodded and said, "I heard about it. It's really strange. The No. 1 Lucy I met in my world only recorded a few dragons such as Acnorolia and Selene, as well as Zeref and his demons appearing here. I haven't heard of any prophecy letters , nor the appearance of ten thousand dragons..."
Hmm? Is that so?
Kira narrowed his eyes. Familiar with the original plot, he immediately thought of an explanation: "Maybe the world has diverged again?"
Looking at the puzzled look from Irene, Kira analyzed: "You see, just like you came here through the solar eclipse, there may be others who came here in the same or similar way."
"Perhaps someone has experienced the future of 'Ten Thousand Dragons Attack the Realm', so he traveled through time and space to write a letter to remind us. In this case, the other party may be completely unaware of the existence of the parallel world, and just mistakenly thinks that we are their past and wants to change their fate."
"As for 'Acnorolia appears' and 'Ten thousand dragons appear', they may also be closely related to your appearance here."
"In order to avoid the 'Ten Thousand Dragons Invasion', someone did something in our world, which led to the 'Dragon King Festival' you mentioned, and thus caused the changes in World No. 5."
"It's also possible that the cause and effect is exactly the opposite. You successfully prevented the Dragon King Festival from causing changes in the five worlds, but it indirectly caused the Ten Thousand Dragons Invasion in our world, so the other party came through to warn you..."
Kira kept talking as soon as he started, which made Irene dizzy. She quickly raised her hand to stop him: "Okay, okay... stop talking!"
"No matter what, I will prioritize the safety of our world!"
Prioritizing the safety of your own world? Isn't that normal...
Whether it was Irene, who came from World 5 and was possessed by Wendy, or Kira himself, they both knew that both sides had the same idea.
Even though they are all wizards of Fairy Tail, there are differences in closeness among them, and they must be responsible for the safety of their families' lives!
