"Um... Mr. Kudo, you've probably heard of Fairy Tail's reputation, haven't you?"
Moen's expression was quite strange, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated, but his conscience still led him to remind Judd.
"Of course, how could I not have heard of Fairy Tail's great reputation? You are the number one mage guild in the Kingdom of Fiore, even the king has to give face to Guild Master Makarov! Otherwise, I wouldn't have sought cooperation with you."
Jiude spoke up, quite frankly, explaining that he wanted to cooperate because of Fairy Tail's renowned reputation. In fact, Moen's current fame had reminded him of the immense influence of mages.
"Alright."
Moen pursed his lips and didn't say anything more.
He didn't know if Judo had genuinely never heard of the destructive power of "Fairy Tail," or if he simply thought such things didn't matter, since the Heartfilia Foundation would profit from building the railway anyway.
"How about it? Want to consider it? I'm very sincere. I can offer 30% of the profits as dividends to Fairy Tail. Once the railway is built, you won't have to do anything and you'll have a continuous stream of dividends."
Jude looked at Moen with great anticipation. Moen's great fame was one aspect, but his surname "Doleah" was even more crucial.
In Jude's view, his conversation with Moen could influence Fairy Tail's decisions, especially after witnessing Moen's differences. He was even more convinced that this child must have an extraordinary position in Fairy Tail.
"This is indeed a good thing, and I am personally willing to act as your advocate. However, Mr. Judo, you should think it over carefully. Cooperating with Fairy Tail will certainly bring many conveniences, but it will also bring many constraints. If you do anything wrong in the subsequent cooperation, we will not be lenient."
Moen spoke slowly, always preferring to lay out the unpleasant truths upfront.
If Jude thinks he can do whatever he wants just because of the "Fairy Tail" name, then Moen will make him understand why "Fairy Tail" can still stand strong despite its bad reputation: it is because they never bully the weak, never do anything wrong, and their sense of justice is absolute.
"Please rest assured, our Heartfilia Foundation has always operated with integrity, prioritizing honesty. We would never do anything fraudulent or deceptive, and we would never tarnish Fairy Tail's reputation."
With a serious expression, Jiude immediately made a promise.
"Okay, I'll go back and discuss it with everyone. I'll contact you as soon as I have a result. It won't take too long."
Moen nodded. It was good that they had this attitude for now. As for what would happen next, it would depend on what the Heartfilia Foundation actually did. Talk was useless; we had to see what they actually did.
"Great! I'll wait for your good news!"
Jiude clapped his hands happily. Although he had paid a lot for it, it was all worth it as long as he could break into the southern market. Without it, he didn’t know if he would be able to break into the southern market in the next ten years.
With the matter nearly settled, Jiude became even more enthusiastic towards Moen. However, what he didn't know was that Moen was secretly planning to increase the profit sharing even further. In any case, Jiude definitely couldn't have done this without them, so there was clearly room for negotiation on the profit sharing.
After the two chatted for a while, Master Voltava finally arrived late. He was a very "magical" old man. What does "magical" mean? It means the kind of old mage with a big white beard, wearing a long robe and a pointed hat, probably the type of Gandalf or Dumbledore.
"Master Vltava, hello."
Moen and Jiude both stood up and bowed to the old man to greet him. Regardless of their status, they had to show respect at his age.
"You're Moen Dorrer?"
Looking at Moen, Voltawa sized him up and down, then shook his head and smiled, though it was unclear what he was laughing at.
"That's right."
Moen nodded, wondering what the old man meant. Why was his attitude so strange? They didn't seem to have met before.
"Ahem, actually I'm a mage too."
Noticing the change in Moen's expression, Voltava coughed lightly and then smiled and said, "Moen just noticed that. This old man also has magical energy fluctuations. Although they are not strong, he is indeed a mage."
"Could it be..."
Moen's expression turned strange.
"That's right, I'm also a Celestial Spirit Mage."
Voltava smiled and said, "Now it makes sense. The reason he was scrutinizing Moen like that is because Moen is also a 'Celestial Spirit Mage'."
"Ahem, so it's you, senior."
Now it was Moen's turn to cough. He understood why Voltava's attitude was strange. He guessed that the old man had heard of his magic and knew that his magic was completely different from the Celestial magic.
"Mount, you've really given us Celestial Spirit Mages a lot of credit, but your Celestial Spirit magic is a bit strange."
As expected, Voltava spoke with a smile, but his words were more of a joke than anything else, and he didn't seem to be trying to vindicate Protoss magic.
"What does it matter? It's just a name."
Moen smiled and spoke; the old man's attitude was quite friendly.
"By making Celestial Spirit Magic so famous, I hope others will be more cautious when facing Celestial Spirit Mages, and maybe even reduce some trouble for other Celestial Spirit Mages."
Moen spoke very seriously, which made Voltava pause for a moment.
"So we should thank you?"
Voltava was speechless. Good heavens, after Moen said that, he had become the benefactor of them, the Celestial Spirit Mages.
"You're welcome, I'm just happy to help others."
Moen smiled and waved his hand. Although he didn't consider himself the benefactor of the Celestial Spirit Mages, he still felt that his statement made some sense. For those who didn't know the truth, encountering a Celestial Spirit Mage would definitely make them tremble.
"You little rascal."
Voltava pointed at Moen, then shook his head with a smile.
"You want to learn the harp from me?"
Before he arrived, Vltava clearly already knew why he had been called.
"Yes, Master Vltava, I want to learn the harp."
Moen nodded seriously. He thought that old man Voltava was quite interesting, and he wouldn't feel uncomfortable about becoming his apprentice.
If Voltava is a really annoying guy, then Moen might want to consider whether or not to establish a purely financial relationship.
"You don't need to learn from me. I'll find you a better teacher, a true harp master. I learned all my harp skills from her."
Looking at Moen, Voltava paused for a moment, then suddenly smiled and spoke, his words carrying a strange sense of joy, which made Moen frown slightly, sensing something was amiss.
"I am the one who connects the paths to the Protoss Realm; you, answer my call, pass through the gates. Open, Lyra, the gates of Lyra!"
Under Moen's watchful gaze, Voltava took out a key and summoned the Celestial Spirit, which was none other than the Celestial Spirit of Lyra!
As the Protoss portal opened, a young girl with brown curly hair appeared, with a harp beside her.
"Vltava, why did you suddenly call me out? Have you written a new piece? Play it for me!"
Lyra, a Lyra celestial spirit, is very lively and chattering away as soon as she appears. She and Voltava seem to have a good relationship. Voltava said that he learned to play the harp from Lyra, which is not impossible. Lyra is indeed a true harp master, and the harp is her livelihood.
"No, no, Lila, I called you out because I wanted you to teach this child the harp. The child really wants to learn the harp."
Voltava waved his hand and explained to Lila with a smile. Lila followed his gaze to Moen, who had a strange expression on his face.
"Do you want to learn the harp?"
Lila stared wide-eyed and asked curiously.
".Yes."
Moen nodded. Although Voltava's calling out the Lyra Celestials to teach him was indeed a bit of a publicity stunt, he had to admit that the teacher was absolutely professional!
"Sure! I'd be happy to help!"
Having confirmed Moen's thoughts, Lila said with a smile, "This Protoss always has a smile on her face, and her voice is very pleasant. She's lively and cheerful. She's not the kind of Protoss used for combat; her main function is entertainment, like playing a musical instrument or singing a song."
"How about it, Moen? Is it okay if you learn the harp from Lila?"
Looking at Moen, Voltava asked with a smile. This old man was indeed quite interesting. He wanted Moen, this fake "Celestial Spirit Mage," to learn the harp from a real Celestial Spirit.
"Of course you can, why not?"
Moen smiled helplessly and said, "If the old man wants to get some revenge for the Celestial Spirit Mages, then let him do it. It's not a big deal. Besides, learning the harp directly from the Lyra Celestial Spirits might even help him establish a connection with Lyra."
"Then it's settled. I'll go to Magnolia with you. You can come to study every week except Monday and Tuesday. My contract with Lila only states that I can't summon on Mondays and Tuesdays."
Voltava happily finalized the deal, very decisively, without even discussing compensation.
