Fairy Tail: You call this Celestial Magic?!

Chapter 145 Moen's Attack (Please Subscribe!)

On the same day, Jiude returned home on a "special plane".

Several big crows were pulling an "airplane" flying in the sky at a very fast speed and with good stability. As the first guest of the "Crow Express", Jiude gave a good evaluation. Apart from being a little nervous, there were no other problems.

"Dad! What is this?!"

Lucy was surprised to see Jiude coming back.

The "plane" pulled by several big crows naturally attracted her attention, and the little girl asked curiously.

"This is a Corvus."

Jiude replied with a rather strange expression on his face. According to Moon, controlling these crows was an ability given to him by the Corvus constellation.

Although Jiude himself is not a celestial wizard, his wife is a very good celestial wizard. Leila has three keys to the zodiac, so Jiude knows a lot about the celestial spirits.

how to say?

Now he could see that what Morn was using was definitely not Celestial Magic, at least it was completely different from the Celestial Magic he knew. No wonder Morn was reluctant to teach Lucy Celestial Magic before.
They are not the same thing at all, so naturally they cannot be taught.

"A Corvus?"

Lucy widened her eyes and stared at the crows curiously. Are these crows all the star spirits of the "Corvus" constellation?
“It doesn’t seem like it.”

Although Lucy is not very old, she knows more about the Star Spirits than Jiude. She can naturally see that there is something wrong with these crows, and they are obviously very different from the Star Spirits.

"Lucy, here you go."

Jiude took out the book and interrupted Lucy who was staring at the crows with great curiosity.

"What is it?"

Lucy's eyes widened as she took the book in surprise. Although she hadn't seen the whole picture yet, she already had an idea of ​​what the book was.

"The Great Detective Sherlock Holmes! It's Mr. Moon's signature!"

After taking the book, Lucy shouted happily. Looking at the words written on the pages, Lucy read carefully and excitedly.

"To Lucy, I hope you can grow up happily and become the person you want to be! - Morn Dolea."

Looking at the words above, Lucy was deeply moved. Although she had never met Moon, she really regarded him as her idol.

Well, Moon’s “Star Magic” seems a bit strange.

"Thank you dad!"

Lucy hugged Sherlock Holmes tightly and thanked Jiude sincerely. She didn't expect that her father would actually help her get Moon's autograph. She thought her father didn't remember it at all.
"Well, I happened to go to him for something, so I asked for his autograph."

Jiude stroked his beard and spoke in a calm tone.

In front of his daughter, he always has a stern face and acts in a pretentious manner, appearing calm and serious. Perhaps as a father, he thinks this is normal.

"Have you finished your homework for today?"

After saying a few words, Jiude shifted the focus to homework. He really didn't know what to say to his daughter.

"I've finished everything, and the teacher praised me for doing a great job."

Lucy replied happily, this was the first time her father cared about her in a while, he never asked before.

"Oh, all right."

Jiude replied dryly and then stopped talking.

The father and daughter walked back to the house together. The "Crow Express" stopped directly in front of his house. It took a while for the two of them to enter the house. This was enough to show how big his house was.

There are several hills around here, and the market that looks like a city belongs to his family. This is his private territory. His family is even completely self-sufficient, forming an internal circulation.

"Get some rest."

After saying this, Jiude returned to his room, feeling like he was running away. This was the limit of what he could do.

"."

Watching her father walk away quickly, Lucy pursed her lips and hugged the book tightly in her arms. In fact, if it was just a signed book by Moon, she wouldn't be so excited. This was the main reason why her father specially asked for it for her.

Lucy sensed that her father seemed to have changed a little, but not by much, which gave her an awkward feeling. Three days later, Moen and Jude Heartfilia set off together on the "Raven Express," flying from Magnolia to the important southern city of Servilia, where many nobles were also heading.

"The Duke of Savalou of the Giulenolo family is the main troublemaker. The Giulenolo family has great influence in the south. If we develop a railway in the south, it will inevitably affect their interests. In fact, I don't think they necessarily oppose the construction of the railway, but just object to it not being under their control."

In "Crow Express", Jiude talked about the information he collected. He emphasized a special person, the Duke of Savalou of the Julenoru family, a great nobleman in the south.

The Julenoru family has been entrenched in the south for a long time and has deep-rooted power. They can influence many things and even lead other nobles to resist the kingdom's policies. The kingdom has no way to deal with them. It can't force them to rebel directly, right?
"They don't want to build a railway, perhaps because they want to reduce the influence of some kingdoms on them?"

Moon listened silently, and probably guessed some of the reasons why the Duke of Savalou did not support the construction of the railway. If the railway was built, the entire southern region would be more closely connected with the kingdom, and the kingdom's influence on the south would be deeper.

This is certainly a good thing for the Kingdom of Fiore, but it is not a good thing for the princes and nobles who are local tyrants in the south. Once the royal power is extended, they will have to bow their heads and their interests will definitely be damaged.

"That's definitely a factor. Otherwise, building a railway would be very convenient for them, and there's no reason for them to refuse."

Jiude nodded and agreed with Moon's statement. Therefore, if one wants to build a railway network connecting the whole country in the south, there will be many complex problems to be faced, and the resistance encountered will definitely not be small.

"It's okay, I'm sure they'll understand."

Moon smiled and spoke with confidence. He wanted to see whether his fist was harder or those local tyrants in the south were more stubborn!

Soon, the "Raven Express" arrived at its destination, Seville, a large city in the south, known as the "Royal Capital" of the South.

As famous as Crocus, the capital of the Kingdom of Fiore, Crocus is known as the "City of Flowers" because of the different flowers that bloom in the city. Seville is also known as the "City of Roses" because of the variety of roses grown here.

"Gah!"

The crow cried hoarsely and stopped the "plane" in the venue. The venue chosen by Jiude was located in the suburbs of Seville, on a mountain, which was a hunting ground.

"Will hunting be a conversation?"

Moon smiled, this was quite the way it was.

"There's no other way. We have to cater to the preferences of these nobles."

Jiude looked helpless. Although he had accumulated a huge fortune, he himself was not a very extravagant and indulgent person. Of course, this was compared with these nobles. In fact, his family was also extremely large.

However, Jiude really doesn't have any messy hobbies. His mind is still on work and he has no thoughts of enjoyment. He usually doesn't go hunting very often.

"Catering to their preferences? That's wrong. We're already at a disadvantage right from the start."

Moon shook his head and said that he didn't think Jiude's flattery would be of any use, and those nobles would not give up their interests because of this.

“You have to make them want to come.”

Jiude shrugged his shoulders. There was nothing he could do about it. His reputation was limited, and it was not easy to call people over.

"Just follow my arrangements. Forget hunting. Let's just arrange a dinner party. Let's sit together and have a good talk. If we can reach an agreement, everyone will be happy. If we can't reach an agreement..."

Moen smiled and said, "They've already tricked them here, so what's left is up to them." Now that they're here, can these nobles just go back? Even if their tempers are truly that bad, they've already climbed the mountain. Can they just go down whenever they want?
"."

Jiude looked at Moon in shock, speechless for a moment. Although he knew that they certainly couldn't keep compromising with these great nobles, and compromise would not be useful, but were they going to tear their faces apart right at the beginning of the contact?
"Is it a bit urgent?"

Jiude thought he was already a radical, but in front of Moon, he seemed a little conservative.

"Why are you in such a hurry? Of course not. We are just expressing our attitude. This is our first meeting, and we want them to understand our attitude so that they won't misjudge us. Otherwise, what if they really think we are easy to bully?"

Moon said with a smile. Although he had a smile on his face, his tone was not polite at all and his eyes were narrowed.

"If there are fewer people who misjudge, there will be less sin of killing, so consider it as accumulating merit."

Moen bared his teeth and spoke in a stern tone. He already knew that these noble oppositions would definitely take action against Jiude, and what he had to do was to protect Jiude, find something against these people, and then uproot them all!
"Then let's do as you say?"

Jiude was a little hesitant, he still felt that Moon's approach was too radical.

There is no way. Jiude is a businessman after all, and he has a businessman's mindset. Most of the time, he still wants to solve the problem through discussion and negotiation.

Jiude invited Moon over just to gain an opportunity to negotiate with those nobles, to let Moon intimidate those nobles, and then give him the opportunity to have an equal negotiation.

"Just do as I say."

Moen nodded and asked Jiude to listen to him.

After accepting the mission, Moon had no intention of playing around with these southern nobles. Instead, he attacked them head-on. He wanted to see who dared to stand in his way of obtaining the Gold Cloth.
