"You two did a great job."
Makarov approached Moen and Laxus and spoke.
But to be honest, Makarov didn't expect things to turn out this way. He felt a sense of powerlessness, as if things had spiraled out of control. It all happened so suddenly.
Joseph Pora was eager for revenge, Laxus was eager to prove himself, and Moen couldn't stand seeing Laxus being overwhelmed by Joseph Pora. The battle quickly began and its intensity rapidly increased until it reached an irreconcilable point.
They came here simply to get Joseph Pola to hand over Rabbit Maru, who had already been recognized and was willing to become their companion, but instead they ended up fighting for no reason.
Joseph Paula went mad and completely destroyed half of the town of Ogu. If he and Moen hadn't stopped him, the remaining half of the town would probably have been affected as well. This was truly an unexpected accident.
Of course, as unexpected as it may be, it's still commendable that Moen and Laxus defeated Joseph Pora.
Regardless of whether Joseph Pola was in good form this time, Makarov did not interfere in the battle, only taking action to protect the town afterwards. This achievement was genuine.
I believe it won't be long before news of this battle spreads, and then Moen and Laxus will become famous together.
And Moen's previous achievements will once again be brought up and talked about with great interest, rendering Joseph Pora and the Spectre's hard work in dispelling rumors in vain.
"I hope Rabbit Maru is alright."
Looking at the collapsed Spectre Guild Hall, Moen quietly offered a prayer for Usagi-maru. They had come to take Usagi-maru away; he hoped they wouldn't end up harming her.
"I hope everything is alright."
Makarov was also a little unsure, after all, the Phantom Lord's guild hall looked quite badly collapsed.
If he runs fast enough, he might be able to escape with his life. But if Rabbit Maru is restricted in his freedom again, then he's really doomed.
There was nothing they could do; this guild hall was the building closest to the battlefield, so it naturally suffered the most damage. Moreover, being behind Joseph Pola, they had no way to protect it.
If one had to say something, this guild hall actually helped shield the buildings behind it from some of the damage. The buildings behind it were noticeably better preserved than the other two, so it was a worthwhile destruction, helping Joseph Paula suffer less damage.
"If that guy can't escape, then he's not qualified to join us."
Laxus was very ruthless. He didn't even know Tutu Maru. If that guy named Tutu Maru couldn't even survive the aftermath of the battle, then why did he even bother to recruit him into the guild?
Recruiting him would only bring another one who would drag the guild down. In Laxus's view, the guild should be full of people like him and Moen. Then they wouldn't just be the number one guild in the Kingdom of Fiore, they would be the number one guild in the continent of Ishgar!
Of course, there isn't actually a ranking list for all the mage guilds on the entire continent of Ishgar. If there were, Fairy Tail might be number one right now.
After all, although the Kingdom of Fiore only occupies a small part of the entire continent of Ishgar, it has the most mage guilds on the entire continent, making it a true paradise for mages.
In the Kingdom of Fiore, even in cities primarily reliant on fishing and tourism, and even in cities where the magical atmosphere is not particularly strong, at least one-tenth of the population possesses the basic magical power to use magical items. It is a true magical kingdom.
Of course, this proportion refers to "cities". The urban population of the Kingdom of Fiore is relatively small, while the rural areas are mostly "Muggles". Although the Kingdom of Fiore has a considerable number of registered mages, it would be a bit exaggerated to say that at least one-tenth of its nearly 20 million population are mages.
"Don't say that, Laxus. Usagi-maru is quite strong; he's a very capable fire mage."
Moen defended Tutu, saying that even if Tutu joined Fairy Tail, he could be considered an elite mage, and he was especially skilled at dealing with fire mages, making him almost invincible against mages of the same type.
"What should we do then? Dig him out?"
Looking at the ruins, Laxus curled his lip.
"We definitely have to dig. It's not just about saving him; half of Ogu Town needs rescue. We don't know how many people have been affected."
Makarov took over and gave his instructions: the first priority was to do everything possible to rescue Ogu Town. They couldn't just leave without helping; they had to find a way to assist.
Moreover, the people from the "Magic Council" should be arriving soon, and they'll need to explain the process to them properly.
This time, they weren't the ones causing destruction; instead, they protected half of the town of Ogu from the crazed Joseph Pola.
"Actually, it may not have much impact. Once the fighting gets intense, the residents of Ougu Town will probably have already fled for safety."
Moen picked up where Grandpa Makarov left off, saying that the residents of Ogu Town certainly had that much sensitivity.
Ogu Town, a magical city with a long history even in the magical kingdom of Fiore, is a place where the residents certainly know when to seek refuge; it is an instinct ingrained in their very bones.
Just like Magnolia, there's even a special "Kildari Mode".
A city without any emergency measures against magical attacks will not last long in the Kingdom of Fiore, and people who are not sensitive enough to danger will not survive long in the Kingdom of Fiore either.
"That makes some sense."
Makarov's lips twitched, but he nodded. Although Moen's words sounded a little outrageous, they did apply to the situation in the Kingdom of Fiore.
After all, this country has a special situation, having the most mage guilds and the most dark guilds.
Dark mages from those dark guilds, magical beasts in the mountains and forests, and even "demons" could all threaten the safety of the city, so everyone's safety awareness is naturally very high.
This also explains why the Fairy Tail crew often wreaks havoc in towns but never hurts anyone; firstly, they are careful, and secondly, the residents in each area have a strong sense of emergency preparedness.
"Joseph Paula, what should we do?"
Moen looked at Joseph Pora, who was kneeling on the ground motionless. This powerful "Ten Wizard Saints" was not so easily killed by Laxus's "Fairy Law" attack, after all, he had blocked it with magic before being hit.
"Let's keep this guy under custody for now. We'll hand him over to the Magic Council later; they should be here soon."
Makarov said, "With such a commotion, even the deaf members of the Magic Council should have noticed it."
However, Makarov didn't really know if the Magic Council had an office in this city, but it didn't matter now. Even if it did, it had probably been blown up by Joseph Pola.
"I hope he's alright."
Makarov offered a prayer for the members of the Magic Council, as they would need their help with the follow-up work.
