NOVEL NEXT Chapter 36: Gildarts, Who Can't Bring Himself to Strike: Despicable!
Looking at the person in front of him, he gritted his teeth and said, "Is this your confidence? You little brat...."
Gildarts' expression changed.
He ground his teeth a few times, wanting to strike down, but he just couldn't bring himself to do it. Ultimately, his expression shifted to one of helplessness as he sighed and lowered his hand.
He immediately turned to Cana's side and pointed at Gaal, loudly accusing, "Cana! Did you see that? This despicable little brat Gaal actually forced me to stop by mimicking you! I told you he was the most despicable one! Now you see it, right? We have to stay away from him in the future!!!"
However, the guild members only looked at Gildarts in confusion, their fists raised in front of Gaal, before they started clawing at the air, accusing him of being despicable.
Seeing the bewildered expressions on the guild people's faces, they had no idea what had just happened.
Or rather....
Had nothing happened at all?
Seeing everyone's reactions, Gildarts suddenly realized.
Gaal wasn't using transformation magic.
Instead, he was employing Ivan's illusion magic.
To him, Gaal appeared as Cana, but to them, Gaal was still Gaal himself.
If that's the case....
Gildarts narrowed his eyes, turning to Gaal.
But as soon as he saw Gaal now resembling Cana, he instantly gave up.
He just couldn't bring himself to do it....
Gildarts couldn't help but sigh helplessly, "Alright. Cancel the magic. I'll admit you won this time."
Gaal chuckled and dispelled the illusion magic.
The crowd stared in confusion as the two simply walked over.
What had just happened? They hadn't even blinked; did they miss something?
Was that it?
Everyone appeared puzzled, and neither Gildarts nor Gaal explained. The members returned indoors.
As Gaal passed through the doorway, he lifted his hand and pointed at the ground.
The large door, which had been shattered into countless pieces from the magical impact, quickly began to gather and reassemble into a new door, leaning back against the wall.
The guild hall erupted back into noise.
Gildarts returned to Cana's side, looking like a villain, which made Cana exasperatedly facepalm.
Just as Gaal walked in, Makarov and Laxus approached:
"In a few days, I'll need your help, Gaal."
Gaal shook his head and responded, "You're too kind, Master. It's just a simple task."
Laxus looked at Gaal with a hint of admiration, "Brother Gaal."
Gaal smiled and nodded.
He then turned to Makarov and asked, "Where is Mr. Ivan?"
Makarov replied, "It'll be about half a month from now. He should be landing at the southern port of the Fiore Kingdom. Oh, and about this."
As he spoke, Makarov took out a memory crystal and handed it to Gaal, "This is the procedure for the transplant surgery. Porlyusica asked me to give it to you."
At this point, a helpless expression appeared on Makarov's face.
Porlyusica refused to personally handle the transplant of the magic crystal to his grandson, only throwing out a memory crystal.
She instructed him to give it to Gaal, saying that Gaal would be competent, and then promptly sent him away.
Gaal nodded thoughtfully.
After all, Porlyusica was the Sky Dragon, Grand Dragon Glandr.
Having her implant a dragon heart crystal into a human wasn't something she would do lightly, especially if they weren't close friends for decades.
Gaal examined the contents of the memory crystal, "No problem. Has Laxus had a physical examination?"
When this was brought up, Makarov said, "Porlyusica checked him out. He's ready for the transplant anytime."
Seeing this, Gaal placed his hand on Laxus' shoulder and lightly discerned, speaking to Laxus, "About right. You still have some time before your father returns. It would be best to practice with the magical potion. Because after amplifying the magic crystal, The pressure on your body will increase as well, so the stronger your physical ability, the better. How many times it amplifies will depend on the magic crystal once it's back. But a twofold amplification in its normal state should not be a problem. The upper limit is yet to be determined."
