"Fairytail" is the leading wizard guild in the entire Fiore Kingdom.
In terms of size and strength, there are no more than five guilds in the entire kingdom of Fiore that can rival "Fairytail".
Naturally, "Fairytail" must have a lot of requests from all over the Fiore Kingdom every day, and there are all kinds of strange things.
Noah, who was standing in front of the commission column, saw that there were simple commissions such as finding some items, driving away thieves or robbers and other simple commissions. The power of magic could be used to solve the slightly difficult tasks such as lifting the curse. There are even high-level commissions such as annihilation of lawless wizard organizations and harmful monsters, and so on.
Generally speaking, the more difficult it is to complete the entrusted content, the higher the reward will be, not to mention the life-threatening ones, and the rewards are generally mentioned at a very high level.
And these are not in the consideration of Noah, who has just been able to go out to work.
After discussing with Erza, they both decided that the difficulty of the first mission must not be too high, and it should not be too far away, otherwise, if you are alone, there will be all kinds of troubles, and whether there will be danger for the time being. Not to mention, there is no guarantee of efficiency.
Therefore, those tasks that need to be performed in distant places and are relatively dangerous, as well as those tasks that specify which magic must be possessed to solve, are all excluded by Noah.
Elsa had torn down a consignment form at some point, went to Makarov to pick up the task, and was ready to go out to work.
Noah lingered on the many orders on the order column for a while, then set his eyes on one of them, stretched out his hand, and tore off the order.
"Have you decided yet?"
Makarov has always stood behind Noah, and seeing the content of Noah's chosen mission, he nodded.
"This task may seem a little weird, but it shouldn't be too difficult, but you still need to be careful. If you find that you can't solve it, you may be aware of the danger, don't be brave, just give up the task, you are still young!"
Hearing Makarov's words, Noah nodded, but his hand tightly grasped the order in his hand, and his heart was a little excited.
...
The blue sky is boundless.
The green field full of life is endless.
On the bottomless green field, at the end of an aisle, an eleven- or twelve-year-old boy slung a long cloth bag on one shoulder, just like carrying a long ankle-length backpack. Hand on the strap, the other hand holds a piece of paper and walks forward.
Along the way, many people who were grazing in the green fields cast their curiosity, doubts, scrutiny, etc. on the teenagers walking on the aisles. ?
In fact, along the way, Noah did meet many well-meaning people who came to ask if he was lost.
Or being manipulated by traffickers who ran out of nowhere, making Noah quite helpless.
However, this encounter also ends here.
For a moment, Noah stopped his steps and looked in front of him.
a village.
A village not too far from Magnolia.
At least, even if Noah didn't take a car, he still came to his destination on foot, although it took a lot of time.
Looking at the village that is not very far in front of him, and then turning his eyes to the order in his hand, Noah once again confirmed that his destination is the village in front of him.
This time the commission was issued by the village chief in this village.
Generally speaking, a commission issued by a small village like this is either to drive away some wild beasts or thieves, or to find medicinal herbs and medicinal materials for healing. There are very few commissions that are difficult or dangerous.
Therefore, Noah will choose to accept the commission issued by this village.
Of course, Noah has also confirmed the content of the entrustment.
how to say?
I don’t know if it’s difficult if I say it is difficult, and I don’t know if it will be easy if I say it simple.
With this mood, Noah was led by a villager to a house and met the village chief of the village.
The village chief is an old man who may be older than Makarov, leaning on crutches, bending over, and his gray beard dragging directly to the ground.
"..." The old man first glanced at Noah up and down, and then said this in the tone of the elder.
"Welcome, guest from 'Fairytail'..."
Seeing this, Noah couldn't help but look at the old man in front of him.
Just now, from the eyes of the old man, Noah clearly saw a trace of doubt.
Obviously, the old man was puzzled by the fact that the sorcerer who came to his village to solve his village's difficulties was such a small child.
However, even so, the old man didn't say anything, and he didn't even seem to want to confirm anything with himself. First, he expressed his welcome to himself, and did not have the slightest dissatisfaction because he was too young.
Noah didn't know whether the other party chose to believe that he was capable of completing the task because he was a "Fairytail" person, or whether the other party planned to bow first and then soldiers. Noah felt a lot easier.
Although the key to the last mission to activate the Ritual Lake was Noah, Laxus was basically responsible for contacting, talking, and negotiating with the client.
It is also because of this that, strictly speaking, this is Noah's first time to work independently, and he is inevitably a little nervous.
What the old man did was to dispel the little tension, which made Noah lighthearted and said hello to the old man.
"Hello, village chief, I'm the wizard of "Fairytail", and I'm here to help you solve your problems!"
"Thank you very much for your help." The village chief nodded very slowly.
"Although our village is not large, there are still one or two hotels for the guests on the journey. If necessary, we will entertain you for free. Do you need to rest first?"
"It's really late now, and it's not very suitable for work. I would be very grateful if you could let me rest for a night, but before that, there are some questions I want to ask the village chief." Noah picked up the order in his hand , with a somewhat uncertain question in his tone.
"The order states that the content of the task is to drive away ghosts. What's going on?"
Yes!
Drive away ghosts!
This is the problem that Noah finds incredible!
Although this is a world where magic is quite prevalent and even integrated into people's daily life, there are also some monsters that can endanger people's lives. Noah even heard Makarov say that there are demons in this world.
But ghosts or something, do they really exist?
Maybe it does exist, but Noah has never seen it, so he will inevitably feel a little suspicious.
Not to mention Noah, even if someone else came, he would probably be as full of doubts as Noah.
After all, the knowledge of some ancient villages is not as wide as that of the residents in the towns and cities outside. Sometimes, some special phenomena, the activities of weak monsters, and the pretense of ill-intentioned humans are really regarded as ghosts. Not impossible.
If this is the case, this task is not difficult to solve, I am afraid that there is another hidden situation, and it is something that Noah can't solve.
Therefore, Makarov's suggestion is just to come and see, if there is something wrong, this type of commission is allowed to be abandoned.
Anyway, if it is really a ghost, Noah has no means to drive the ghost away, right?
Therefore, it is necessary to ask clearly.
I don't know if the village chief also understands this. Seeing that Noah directly asked about the work, he began to explain in a leisurely manner.
"Actually, from not long ago, the villagers in the village who went hunting in the forest can often hear the sound of ghosts crying!"
