In the thirteen years since Moen came to this world, even when he was a child, he had never met that senior, Warold Sinken. He was a true senior, four generations above him! Even Grandpa Makarov would have to call him uncle.
The senior member had left the guild a long time ago, and Moen didn't know the specific reason. Grandpa Makarov was very tight-lipped about it, probably because he didn't want to talk about the elders.
Moen estimated that Warlord Sinken must be at least 120 or 130 years old, but he was still very active and energetic, and his strength was among the top of the "Ten Wizard Saints". It can only be said that powerful wizards can really live a long life!
After a moment of reflection, Moen stopped paying attention to the matter. With a senior figure escorting him, Joseph Pola was sure to get away.
As for whether the Magic Council could actually judge Joseph Pola and what kind of crime they could ultimately convict him of, Moen didn't really have high expectations. The Magic Council might not even have the courage to deal with Joseph Pola.
Furthermore, although it was affected by the "Fairy Tail" buff, it is a fact that Joseph Pola's magic did not cause any casualties in the end, which greatly reduced his guilt.
The members of "Fairy Tail" who caused trouble were not sentenced, so naturally we can't use that to judge Joseph Paula.
In the end, the only crime that could be charged with Joseph Pola was "not allowing mages to leave the guild and forcibly imprisoning mages," which was a crime for which a flexible sentence was truly possible.
"In the end, it will probably just be handled with care."
Moen concluded that the society of mages was no different from that of ordinary people; to survive, one either needed strength or a powerful background, otherwise, one should behave oneself and avoid trouble.
As for Joseph Bora, he clearly has both strength and background. Unless Fairy Tail goes after him and forces the Magic Council to take over, he is unlikely to be dealt with too severely.
Judging from Grandpa Makarov's attitude toward this matter, he clearly didn't intend to make a scene with Joseph Pola. He probably just wanted to teach him a lesson and humiliate him.
It can only be said that Joseph Pola did not cross Grandpa Makarov's line, otherwise the old man would never have cared about his reputation and would never have given the Magic Council any face.
After checking the news, Moen didn't return to the guild. He figured it must be a chaotic mess inside, with another big battle brewing. He decided to go back later.
Moen could already picture Laki's helpless face. Laki spent her days repairing tables and chairs with magic in the guild. Although she got paid, the high-intensity overtime work every day was really tough!
Laki doesn't need to specifically set aside time to practice her magic. Repairing tables and chairs every night can already replace magic practice, which is a kind of part-time work and part-time study.
Moen then went to the newly built "Harp Concert Hall," which had cost a fortune to build.
First of all, this location cost a lot of money to acquire. Several shops were demolished, and small plots of land around it were used to build this rather grand "Harp Concert Hall".
The concert hall's full name is "Hatephilia Harp Concert Hall," which clearly indicates that it is the property of the "Hatephilia Foundation." Of course, the usage rights are now held by Vltava.
When Jude built this concert hall, it was purely an investment to cultivate personal relationships; he didn't consider any commercial interests whatsoever, since he even gave the concert hall's profits to Vltava.
The profits went to Vltava, but the overall operation and maintenance were still handled by the Heartfilia Foundation. Vltava wasn't burdened at all; all he had to do was hold concerts whenever he had free time. It was essentially a matter of him spending his own money to gain favors.
When Moen arrived at the concert hall, there was a long queue at the entrance.
There's a performance at the concert hall today. It's really convenient for the nearby residents to enjoy art, as Maestro Vltava has settled in Magnolia.
The concert hall gave Magnolia another reason to attract people. Maestro Vltava was already very famous, which made Magnolia, which already had a large number of visitors, even more prosperous.
As soon as Moen arrived, people immediately noticed him. The people queuing up here were not only Magnolias, but also many who had come from surrounding cities. They were naturally very curious about Moen, after all, Moen had just made a splash again.
The fact that he defeated Joseph Bora last time was vehemently denied by both the Spectre and Joseph Bora, leading to some doubts about Moen's strength and the feeling that he wasn't as powerful as he seemed.
But this time, Moen and Laxus teamed up and defeated Joseph Porra once again, and in a head-on victory at that. What do you, Joseph Porra and the Spectre, have to say?
We can't say that all the credit goes to Laxus this time, and that Moen was just a freeloader, right?
Moen himself didn't mind, after all, the main attacker this time was Laxus, whose move "Fairy Law" showed people what the foundation of "the number one guild in the Kingdom of Fiore" was!
But Laxus certainly wouldn't be happy. He knew his own situation best. If Moen hadn't stepped in to help and diverted most of Joseph Pora's attention, he wouldn't have had the chance to use "Fairy Law" to defeat Joseph Pora.
If anyone dares to say that Moen is a lazy winner, Laxus will be the first to stand up and refute it.
Laxus would never take credit for Moen's achievements; that would only make him feel extremely humiliated. He certainly wouldn't steal the credit from his younger brother, who was three or four years younger than him.
"Rose Star Goddess!"
"It's Sherlock Holmes!"
"Moen! Moen!"
A shout from the crowd was enough to show how popular Moen was. A powerful and handsome mage, the author of "Sherlock Holmes," the author of "Masayume Chasing," and the last disciple of Master Voltava, Moen had all the buffs stacked up, so it was no wonder that he had a huge following.
"Hiss~"
Hearing the shouts of the crowd, Moen felt a pang of unease and fled in panic, entering the concert hall through the VIP passage.
To be honest, Moen felt a little embarrassed hearing a bunch of people calling her "Rose Star God." Maybe he should just call her "Star God," which would correspond to "Thor," the other Laxus in the "Twin Stars."
Adding "rose" in front of his name not only makes him sound a bit effeminate, but also makes him seem like some kind of pretty boy idol.
Moen is a real man, and he's definitely very handsome. He doesn't look like a chick at all; he's quite muscular. But maybe because he's young, he does look a little bit babyish. There's nothing we can do about it; it's just the effect of age. He'll be fine in time.
Having managed to escape the crowd of fans in a disheveled state, Moen was almost drenched in sweat. A dignified mage, almost being overpowered by a group of ordinary people—who could he complain to?
There was no other way. Faced with a group of enthusiastic fans, Moen couldn't just unleash a Pegasus Meteor Fist and clear them out; that would be utterly insane.
So Moen could only squeeze through little by little, and he had no bodyguards with him, so he had to rely entirely on himself to get out.
"Hahaha! Little brother Moen, you should really hire a few bodyguards, otherwise you'll have a hard time going out in the future. Your fame is too great now!"
Backstage at the concert hall, Jude laughed and teased Moen, who was quite surprised to see the guy there.
"Mr. Jiude, what brings you here?"
Moen asked in confusion, "Isn't this guy always very busy?"
Jude has probably been preparing for "Going South" recently, yet he still has time to come to Magnolia to listen to a concert?
"The Heartfilia Foundation is almost ready, so I've had a bit more free time lately. I heard that Maestro Vltava is starting a concert, so I made a special trip here to make sure this first concert at the concert hall is a complete success!"
Jiude spoke with a smile, appearing ready to ensure the success of the concert.
But Moen had already figured out that although Jude said he came for the concert, he actually came to find "Fairy Tail".
The Heartfilia Foundation is ready, so shouldn't it be time for them and Fairy Tail to cooperate? The collaboration between the two sides should now be put into practice.
"Mr. Jude is very kind. Maestro Vltava will surely be very happy. This concert will be a great success and will have a positive impact on the entire Magnolia. I believe the city government will also respond and cooperate actively, which will save our concert hall a lot of trouble."
Moen smiled and replied, expressing goodwill. Fairy Tail would never do anything that violated the spirit of the contract, which is the foundation of a mage guild.
It must be said that Jude is indeed very shrewd. This expensively sponsored concert hall is a stroke of genius, directly bringing him closer to the entire Magnolia.
The Magnolia municipal government currently has a positive view of him and is willing to accept this foreign capital for further investment and development.
"Little Moen, are you performing today?"
After hearing Moen's words, Jude smiled and asked Moen what he meant. He understood Moen's meaning, so he stopped talking about other things and focused his attention on the concert.
"I'll see how it goes."
Moen hadn't thought about it, but if Master Voltava asked him to go on stage, he wouldn't mind, since he was skilled enough to be on stage anyway.
But Jiude kept calling him "little brother," which made Moen a little awkward. Jiude was at least in his thirties or forties, and Moen usually called him "uncle."
Moreover, Jiude's daughter is about the same age as Moen, only a year or two younger. Jiude calls Moen "little brother," so what should his daughter call Moen?
Uncle?
Moen found it a bit strange, so why not just call each other their own names? Jiude called him little brother, and Jiude's daughter called him brother.
