"Her name is Artoria Pendragon. And the president?"
"The guild master has been summoned by the Magic Council."
"Uh... I was called away again?"
It's never a good thing for the old man to be called to the Magic Council every time.
"President, you're back!"
"Ok!"
Makarov walked in looking annoyed.
"President, did you get scolded by the council members again?"
Seeing the old man's displeased expression, Lu Li knew he had guessed correctly.
"It's all because of those idiots, they're all just causing trouble. Look at this, it's all documents sent by the council, and I got a real dressing down from the council members."
At this moment, the old man saw Saber next to Lu Li, and his eyes immediately lit up.
Saber's beauty is irresistible, let alone that lecherous old man, the president.
"Oh! A newcomer? I'm Makarov, the guild master of Fairy Tail. Nice to meet you!"
Saber shook her head: "No, I'm not..." Saber looked at Lu Li.
Lu Li smiled and said, "It's okay. I brought you here to help you register. You'll be here with me for a long time, so joining a guild would be more suitable for you."
"Oh oh oh oh oh oh!"
"Great!"
"Fairy Tail has finally welcomed a super beautiful girl!"
The men in the guild all cheered.
Neither Mira nor Erza has grown up yet, and even if they did, they might be slightly less beautiful than Saber.
Makarov quickly completed Saber's membership application process.
Everyone in the guild enthusiastically gathered around, leaving Saber somewhat bewildered.
Makarov asked curiously, "You rascal, where did you find such a beautiful girl?"
"Hehe, isn't it beautiful?"
"Beautiful! Absolutely beautiful!"
Makarov's mouth was practically watering.
"Being pretty is mine too!"
"You brat, don't talk nonsense. What do you mean 'yours'? Artoria belongs to the guild."
“I’m not making this up. Haven’t you noticed yet? She’s not entirely human.”
"Not human? Then what is it?"
"She is a heroic spirit."
"Heroic Spirit?"
"You know Celestial Spirit Mages, right? She's not much different from a Celestial Spirit."
Celestial Spirit magic is also a relatively common form of summoning magic, and in essence, it is not much different from Heroic Spirit magic.
However, Celestial Spirit Mages can open a portal to summon Celestial Spirits at any time.
The summoning of Heroic Spirits requires 60 years of accumulated magical energy from the land of Fuyuki City to be activated.
"What? Such a beautiful girl is actually a Celestial Spirit?"
Makarov was somewhat incredulous.
"Yes! I summoned it; this is the Command Seal for summoning."
Lu Li showed Makarov the Command Seals on the back of his right hand, so that the old man wouldn't think he had joined another guild.
Makarov's eyes lit up: "How did you summon it? Teach me!"
"Forget it, you won't be able to learn it."
"Who says I can't learn it? I'm one of the Ten Wizard Saints, after all."
"For the sake of your health, you'd better behave yourself."
"Saber!"
"Master!"
Upon hearing Lu Li's call, Saber quickly ran over from the crowd. Saber had just told everyone in the guild about her identity as a Heroic Spirit.
As a result, the guild members became even more curious.
The enthusiasm of the crowd made Saber, who was somewhat socially awkward, feel very uncomfortable.
Hearing Lu Li's call, he quickly ran over.
"Come on, choose a task to assign..."
When Saber arrived, Lu Li had already told her what the Mage Guild did.
"Everything is up to Master!"
"No, you decide for yourself."
Lu Li had no intention of letting Saber leave. If he had summoned another Servant, he would have let it go, but since he had summoned Saber, he naturally wouldn't let her go.
Therefore, he wanted Saber to adapt to life in this world as quickly as possible.
Should I make the decision?
Saber didn't expect Lu Li to let her make the decision, but since it was Master's order, she naturally had to carry it out.
Saber carefully looked at the quest board and saw a wide variety of quests before finally choosing a subjugation quest.
This is a monster-slaying quest, and the reward is 30 J.
"Now that we've made up our minds, let's set off."
Saber handed the mission assignment to Makarov for a quick glance. Normally, Makarov wouldn't allow a newcomer whose abilities he didn't know to do such a dangerous job.
But with Lu Li by my side, let alone a job worth 300 J, he would give the green light even if it were worth 3000 million J or 30 million J.
But this brat is actually able to summon such a beautiful heroic spirit; it's truly enviable.
On the way, Lu Li began explaining the basics of this world to Saber. 3.8
The job that paid 30 J wasn't too difficult for Saber, but she still went through a fierce battle.
Lu Li assessed Saber's combat strength. If we take the adult Mira and Erza from the anime as the S-rank evaluation standard, Saber's strength would be considered A-rank without using her Noble Phantasm.
He's roughly equivalent to Natsu and Gray at the beginning of the anime, but he might be slightly weaker in a real fight.
However, if Saber uses her Noble Phantasm to unleash her full power, she can reach the level of an S-rank mage.
"Master, this is the reward for the mission."
Saber handed the money bag to Lu Li.
Lu Li pushed it back with a smile:
"No, this is your payment."
Chapter 133 The Arrival of Demon Slayer
"mine?"
"Yes, you accepted the commission, you completed the work, and the reward naturally belongs to you."
"But I am the Master's Servant, so the rewards I earn naturally belong to the Master."
Lu Li shook his head: "I am indeed your Master, but I would prefer to get along with you like friends."
Do you know why I brought you to the Fairy Tail guild?
"I just want you to interact with more people from other places and learn more about how to live in this world."
"This money, um..."
Lu Li said, taking out 10 J from Qian Chong: "This 10 J is your rent for one month's stay at my place. The remaining 20 J can be used for your daily expenses."
"You can use it to buy food, clothes, and even armor. The magical armor in this world is just as good as the Noble Phantasms of Heroic Spirits."
"Of course, this is just this month's rent. To avoid being strapped for cash, you'll have to earn your own rent next month."
"In short, how you spend this money is entirely up to you."
Saber was completely bewildered after hearing Lu Li's words. Work? Salary? Rent?
These almost all involve areas where her knowledge is lacking.
She didn't understand why Lu Li would go to such lengths. Wouldn't it have been better to let her take on missions and earn rewards for her?
However, when Lu Li let her make her own decision, she felt a warmth she had never felt before.
"Yes!"
Although she didn't understand, these were Master's orders, so she just had to execute them.
"Mission accomplished, let's go back."
Over the next period of time, Saber gradually became familiar with life in Fairy Tail.
Although the people in the guild were different from the noble magicians she remembered, they were all very kind.
She was trained as a queen from a young age, and after growing up, she almost always led the army in the British War.
Everyone feared her, and she had no one she could confide in.
But here, she is not that high and mighty king, but an ordinary person, and even after everyone knows her identity as a heroic spirit, they do not treat her differently.
These were feelings she had never had before.
She also learned about Lu Li from other people.
Only then did she realize how powerful her Master was.
Any magic can be learned after seeing it once, mastered after casting it once, and can even be easily modified to create magic capable of destroying a city.
She is currently one of only three S-class mages in the Fairy Tail guild.
Based on the descriptions from the guild members, she knew that even if she used her Noble Phantasm, she might not be a match for these three S-rank mages.
The Fairy Tail Guild Master is a very important figure, one of the Ten Wizard Saints of the Ishgard continent.
She could hardly believe that a mage guild in just one city could possess such power.
If this guild had appeared in her era, it probably would have swept away all national powers.
Yet this powerful guild simply resides in a corner of an ordinary city.
This was almost incomprehensible to her.
With such great power, why not expand your territory?
It wasn't until later that she learned there were many other guilds in the world, and those mage guilds were no less powerful.
They were all brought under the management of the Magic Council.
In addition, as she gradually learned about the guild's history, she discovered that the Mage Guild had indeed experienced wars in the past.
At that time, various countries hired mages to fight, resulting in heavy casualties. The mages' combat power far exceeded that of ordinary people.
A large number of people were sacrificed, which led to the formation of the Magic Council to manage the mages.
Mages are no longer allowed to participate in wars.
This led to a gradual return to peace among the various countries.
Without war, mages would naturally need to take on missions to support themselves.
The characters in Fairy Tail don't pursue power; they value freedom and a joyful, adventurous life more.
This sense of freedom and joy deeply touched her.
