Petrel

Chapter 32

- I wonder if the Phantom Lord Guild Master is a complete idiot or just pretending? - I said, slightly surprised, looking at the ruins of our guild. - I don't believe that he doesn't know about our power.

- In fact. Many people, including those on the council, think that this is an exaggeration and if you were really that strong, you would have come for the titles of the chosen ones a long time ago. - Ultear said slightly embarrassed, under the surprised looks of our entire company. - But you know, it's good that this happened now, while I'm still on the council. After all, although guild wars are prohibited, if at least one representative of the council can confirm the fact of irreconcilable hostility between the guilds, then he can demand an official duel between the two strongest mages of the guilds. Well, and the losing guild will be disbanded.

- Really?! So I can officially punch Jose in the face? - Elsa answered surprisingly happily.

- Hey, why you? I want to turn him into mincemeat too. - I was indignant, pretending to be indignant, although with a bit of sincerity. It was obvious that in our pair I was the stronger one.

- Because you've been taking all the most interesting opponents for yourself lately, I want to stretch my fists too. - Elsa pointed at me accusingly.

- Okay, okay. He's yours. - Having decided not to argue out of the blue, I, like a true henpecked wife, immediately backed down, causing Elsa to smile smugly. The bastard knows how much I don't like conflicts.

- HEY! I want to beat up that old man too! Don't you dare decide everything yourself! - Natsu shouted, heated and angry, but as soon as we both glared at him and Gray, who was preparing to support him, saying , they both immediately pretended that nothing had happened. - Did I say anything? You probably misheard me. - Provoking a mutual nod of satisfaction from me and my friend.

- If that's the case, then Ultear, can you please organize it? At the same time, take Meredy with you and introduce her to grandma. - I turned to Ultear, not paying attention to Ur, who seemed to be pierced by an invisible arrow the moment I called her grandma. And yet, I am amazed at how anime logic affects this world, here even if you don't want to kill the enemy, by hitting harder the enemy simply passes out and doesn't die, something like this has often caused me rather conflicting feelings.

- Of course! - Ultear agreed with a smile. - And I hope that by the time we return, you will have restored the guild building.

- Oh, don't worry, was it in vain that I pumped up time magic? Give me a minute and the building will be as good as new. - Having decided to brag a little, I made sure in advance that for some reason there was no one in the guild, went up to him and activated a huge magic circle.

- Restoration! - Shouting like a true chuunibyou, I activated the spell, echoing which the guild building literally began to rewind back in time, and the metal pins turned into the mana from which they were created. Actually, as promised, a minute later the guild building was restored.

- And, it's ready! Well, come take a look? - Having made an inviting gesture, I turned to our newcomers.

- No, it's better when Meredy is with us, we will all come together to our new home. - Answered Urtear, full of hope for the future.
