Chapter 73 The Gift
The top floor of the Phantom Lords headquarters.
This place originally belonged to the Wraith Lords.
It is also an important place that other members of the Phantom Lords find difficult to enter.
But at this moment, those standing here are all members of Fairy Tail, who are celebrating their victory in a lively atmosphere.
"President, I'm so glad you're alright!"
In the crowd, Erza immediately picked up Chairman Makarov and hugged him tightly.
As the one being embraced by Erza, Makarov was in immense pain.
After all, Erza is wearing armor!
The suffocating feeling of having a steel plate pressed against your face is something no normal person can experience.
In fact, many people in the guild have suffered from the harm caused by Erza's armor.
Because she is older and more reliable among her peers, Erza has always been regarded as an older sister.
She also treated Nazgre and the others like younger brothers.
Therefore, she cares for her younger brother as an older sister.
Natsu and Gray have both experienced the suffocating feeling of having a steel plate pressed against their face quite often.
After all, Erza's arm, which was also covered in armor, was quite strong.
"Calm down, Erza! The guild master is about to faint."
At the critical moment of Chairman Makarov, Mirajane quickly reminded Erza.
This made the excited Erza notice the president's condition.
"I'm sorry, President, are you alright?"
Erza quickly released Commander Makarov from her embrace and apologized repeatedly.
Seeing this, Shirou Natsu, Gray, and the other two onlookers couldn't help but take a step back.
Erza is absolutely ruthless.
Seeing this, Natsu and Gray were both awakened to painful memories of the past, while Shirou Kenshin worried that he would be the next person to suffer this torture.
If Mira were to inflict this torture on him, Shirou Kotomine would naturally not refuse.
On the contrary, he will be extremely proactive.
But if it were Erza, he firmly refused.
"No, it's nothing!"
Makarov, who had just woken up, never expected that he would lose half his life at the hands of his own people.
He was originally prepared to fight Joseph to the death!
However, he also knew that this was just Erza's momentary impulse.
He knew very well how much pressure Erza would be under when he was seriously injured and unconscious, facing the aggressive onslaught of Joseph and the Phantom Lords.
"cough!!!"
After coughing a few times to compose himself, Chairman Makarov then adopted his usual authoritative demeanor.
Upon seeing this, the people around who were celebrating and sharing their feelings fell silent.
They surrounded Shirou Kotomine, Erza Mirajane, and Chairman Makarov, listening quietly to the Chairman's speech.
"Shirou, Erza, and Mira, the three of you did a fantastic job, better than I expected!"
"While I was unconscious, everyone fought to protect the guild. Without a doubt, you are all the pride of Fairy Tail!"
"And the three of you even joined forces to defeat Joseph, the guild master of Phantom Lord! This is a miraculous achievement; you are heroes of Fairy Tail!"
Makarov praised him sincerely.
To be honest, Makarov was filled with remorse as he was about to faint.
He was annoyed by his carelessness.
They actually led the guild members into such a dangerous situation.
At that time, none of the reliable combatants in the guild were by his side.
He was worried that someone might die here.
When he awoke, Joseph's magic was raging across the sky.
Although he was in very poor condition at the time, he immediately stood up and went to meet Joseph.
To his surprise, Joseph's magic soon disappeared completely.
What came into his view was the arrow of light streaking across the sky.
That's the magic of Shirou Kotomine.
Makarov knew it very well.
He knew that Joseph had been defeated, and was even dead.
At that moment, Makarov finally felt completely at ease.
Makarov knew very well that at that moment, it wasn't just everyone in the guild who was saved, but also him.
Especially when it is known that no one in the guild has died.
He couldn't imagine waking up to find many of his members already dead.
That was too painful for him.
"Oh! Hero!"
Upon hearing the president's praise, the crowd gathered around cheered loudly.
It wasn't just Makarov who thought they were heroes; everyone else in the guild thought so too.
After all, the guild master who defeated the Phantom Lord was Joseph, one of the Ten Wizard Saints.
This is truly a miracle.
Moreover, in the early stages of this war, they didn't have much of an advantage at all.
The victory was entirely due to Kotomine Shirou and his men breaking into the enemy ranks and killing the enemy leader.
The cheers from the crowd grew louder and louder.
"Wait, wait! What about us? You haven't forgotten about us, have you?!"
Amid cheers from the crowd, Natsu immediately jumped out.
Gray and Elfman followed closely behind.
They were also part of the infiltration into enemy territory, so how can you only praise Kotomine Shirou and his two companions and not praise them?
The three were very dissatisfied with this.
"Haha, of course you guys are too!"
Watching this scene, Makarov's smile grew wider and wider.
Gray and his two companions laughed after hearing the praise.
Upon seeing this, everyone around burst into laughter.
Laughter and cheers immediately filled the entire Phantom Lord guild.
.
After a lively celebration, Makarov led everyone toward his guild.
According to him, the council's army would probably be arriving soon.
After all, the Phantom Lord really caused a huge stir this time.
The council will not let this matter go easily.
As for the victims, all they need to do is return to their base, wait for the army to arrive, and cooperate with their investigation.
So they returned to the guild to wait for the council's army.
However, Shirou Kotomine did not leave immediately.
He wandered around the headquarters of the Phantom Lords all by himself.
He was searching for the Phantom Lord's library.
To be honest, there are many interesting aspects to Phantom Lord Shirou Kotomine.
For example, the Magical Machinery Guild building and the Magical Cluster Cannon deeply attracted Shirou Kotomine's attention.
Shirou Kotomine plans to present their information as a gift to Gilgamesh, the wise king of Uruk.
As the two people who had been of great help to him on this trip, Shirou Kotomine planned to bring back some gifts for Merlin and King Gilgamesh.
Like Merlin's Gift, Shirou Kotomine felt that the magic system of this world was sufficient.
The gift from the Wise King is the technology for magical machinery and magical cluster cannons that he is currently searching for.
Shirou Kotomine thinks this should be useful for Uruk now.
In order to prepare for the impending war, the Wise King Flash is constantly designing suitable buildings and mechanisms, and the magical machinery of this world should inspire him.
The Magic Cluster Cannon can be used on the North Wall.
Although there was a divine seal placed there by the wise king Shan.
But those cannonballs were all treasures of the wise King Shan.
Therefore, the seal of divine authority is only used in dangerous situations.
However, the magic cluster cannon only requires magic power, and the concentration of magic power in Uruk, located in the Age of Gods, is even higher than in this world.
Therefore, Shirou Kotomine believes that the Magic Cluster Cannon should be very useful in Uruk.
