Crossover Anime: I, Shirou Kotomine, King of Uruk

Chapter 223 Taking Over as the 4th Guild Master of Fairy Tail

Chapter 224 Taking Over as the Fourth Chairman of Fairy Tail

"oh!!!"

A burst of enthusiastic cheers erupted from Fairy Tail.

The intense sound resounded throughout the world, so much so that the residents living around Fairy Tail couldn't help but look in that direction and secretly wonder what had happened.

"Great, everyone's still alive!"

"Brother Natsu!"

"Waaaaah!"

Along with those excited voices, the sounds of weeping and wailing also rang out.

Standing in the corner watching this scene, Shirou Kotomine couldn't help but feel deeply moved.

In the original timeline, these seven blank years caused the Fairy Tail members to lose a lot.

Seven years later, when Natsu and his friends returned, Fairy Tail, once the strongest guild in the Kingdom of Fiore, had become the last.

The once bustling guild is now reduced to just a handful of members.

Even so, they are frequently provoked by another newly emerging guild in Magnolia.

That couldn't be more tragic.

"But this time, with me here, I will absolutely not let Fairy Tail fall to that state again."

Looking around at the guild members, some excited and some in tears, Shirou Kotomine seemed to see Natsu and the others in his mind's eye.

Thinking back on the experiences he had shared with them, Shirou Kotomine thought to himself.

As the "Time Clockwork" is perfected, Shirou Kotomine will inevitably spend several years in this world to enhance his strength.

During these years, Shirou Kotomine will be in charge of Fairy Tail.

He won't allow anyone to lay a hand on Fairy Tail.

absolute!

"Shirou, there's something I'd like to ask you."

In the evening, after most of the guild members had left, Macao led Wakaba toward Kotomine Shirou.

"Don't be shy, Macao. Just tell me what you need."

"I replied with a smile," said Shirou Kotomine.

With all of Fairy Tail's main forces now gone, Marcao, a veteran member of Fairy Tail, is the acting chairman.

With Chairman Makarov missing, he is currently the temporary Chairman of Fairy Tail.

Moreover, Shirou Kotomine is well aware of this.

Although it is only temporary now, Marcao will take over as the fourth chairman in the future.

After all, the disappearance of Fairy Tail's main members had only just occurred before Shirou Kotomine appeared, and no one could be sure that Makarov and Natsu were definitely dead.

Perhaps they are just trapped somewhere?

That's what the vast majority of people think.

After all, that was Makarov, one of the Ten Wizard Saints, and all the main forces of Fairy Tail, the strongest guild.

But as time went by, no matter how hard other guilds and the council searched, they could not find any trace of them.

Marcao will become the official president when everyone has given up hope.

This is the story that should have happened.

But the appearance of Shirou Kotomine changed everything.

Everyone knows that Natsu and the others are not dead, and they will definitely come back.

This news was a shot in the arm for Fairy Tail at this time.

This brought the guild, which was on the verge of falling apart, back together.

However, I still admire Shirou Kotomine for keeping Fairy Tail going for seven years and preventing it from completely disappearing from history.

Although his abilities are the weakest among all the previous presidents.

But his will is commendable.

Therefore, Shirou Kotomine is happy to help Macao maintain Fairy Tail.

Upon hearing Shirou Kotomine's response, Macao said earnestly, "Shirou, I hope you can inherit the position of guild master and become the fourth guild master of Fairy Tail."

"ha?"

Upon hearing Marcao's words, Shirou Kotomine was immediately stunned.

He couldn't help but scratch his ear and ask, "I don't think I heard what you said, Macao, could you repeat that?"

"I hope you can succeed as the fourth chairman."

Seeing this, Marcao reiterated his affirmation.

"Wait! Aren't you the student council president now? Why are you handing it over to me?!"

"I'm a little flustered," said Shirou Kotomine.

He never even considered becoming the fourth guild master of Fairy Tail.

"I'm just the acting president; we haven't decided on a new president yet."

"And I believe only you can inherit the position of chairman."

Marcao's expression was very serious.

This was a decision he made after careful consideration.

Although Shirou Kotomine didn't join Fairy Tail for very long, and he was away for quite some time afterward.

However, Shirou Kotomine once saved Fairy Tail during a battle against Phantom Lord.

With this achievement, he is fully qualified to succeed as the Fairy Tail guild master.

"Why!"

After a brief moment of panic, Shirou Kotomine quickly calmed down.

He knew that Macao wouldn't speak carelessly about such things.

There must be a reason why he made this choice.

"Because of strength!"

A hint of helplessness flashed in Marcao's eyes.

As a member of Fairy Tail, who wouldn't want to inherit the position of Fairy Tail's president?

Marcao was certainly willing.

This is also an honor for him.

But he was self-aware enough to know that he simply didn't have the strength to maintain Fairy Tail's status.

This is the world of mages.

To become the strongest guild, you must have the strongest strength.

Like Fairy Tail and Phantom Lord, the two strongest guilds in the Kingdom of Fiore, the reason why these two guilds were the strongest was not only because of the overall strength of the two guilds, but also because of the strength of the guild leaders of the two guilds.

Makarov and Joseph are both among the Ten Wizard Saints.

The Ten Wizard Saints are a collective term for the ten strongest mages on this continent.

Of these, the first four of the Ten Wizard Saints do not hold specific guild positions, but rather serve in the Wizard Council.

Of the remaining six, three are in a guild in the Kingdom of Fiore.

Makarov of Fairy Tail.

Joseph, the Ghost Ruler.

Jura of the Snake Princess Scale.

These three guilds were once the three strongest guilds in the Kingdom of Fiore.

Apart from Jura, who is not the guild leader, both Makarov and Joseph are guild leaders.

In most cases, the guild leader is the flag bearer of a guild.

Like Fairy Tail, before the current generation grew up, Fairy Tail had many strong members, but those were all members from the very beginning.

Fairy Tail did not cultivate any outstanding talents afterward.

Until Makarov became president.

Under his tutelage, a large number of talented individuals gathered in Fairy Tail, directly transforming it into Fiore's most powerful guild.

This demonstrates the importance of the president.

Compared to the leaders of those large guilds, Macao's strength is far too weak.

Even compared to the leaders of small guilds, Macao's strength is too ordinary.

These macao know very well.

But even the most skilled cook can't cook without rice. With the main force gone, apart from the experienced Macao and Wakaba, there was simply no one else who could succeed as guild leader.

Ultimately, only Marcao can inherit it.

But now everything has changed.

In Fairy Tail, there is also the capable Shirou Kotomine.

Everyone in Kotomine Shirou's powerful guild was well aware of the battle against Phantom Lord back then.

At a time like this, no one would dare to disobey him.

That's why Marcao said that Shirou Kotomine was the most suitable candidate.

"I see!"

After listening to Macao's explanation, Shirou Kotomine nodded slightly.

"I understand. I will take on the responsibilities of the fourth chairman!"

Kotomine Shirou responded earnestly.

After hearing Marcao's explanation, Shirou Kotomine no longer had any intention of refusing.

Taking over as the guild master of Fairy Tail at this time is not a good thing.

This is a responsibility.

It is the heavy burden that carries the entire Fairy Tail on its shoulders.

As Marcao said, only he could accomplish this task.

In any case, Shirou Kotomine will be studying and researching here for the next few years.

Seven years.

He only needs to serve as chairman for seven years to wait for Makarov and the others to return, and then he can hand over the chairmanship to the next person.

Moreover, Shirou Kotomine was actually quite happy about inheriting the position of Fairy Tail guild master.

Therefore, no matter what, Shirou Kotomine could not bring himself to refuse.

"That's great!"

"If it were you, Shirou, you would definitely be able to lead Fairy Tail back to its former glory."

Both Macao and Wakaba said happily.

They all saw hope in Shirou Kotomine.

"I will definitely not let the president and the others down when they come back."

Kotomine Shirou promised.

Recalling the scene when Makarov taught him "Fairy Law," perhaps Makarov at that time did not expect that he, who inherited the three great magics of Fairy Tail, would take over his position.

Now that I've taken over the responsibility of being the fourth guild master of Fairy Tail, I must do my best.

Kotomine Shirou thought to himself.

the next day.

"Everyone, let's celebrate together as Shirou Kotomine takes over as the fourth Fairy Tail guild master!"

"oh!!!"

With Marcao presiding, all the Fairy Tail members in the guild shouted loudly.

No one objected to Shirou Kotomine taking over as the guild master of Fairy Tail.

He deserves this because he once saved the guild from the clutches of the Phantom Lord.

Moreover, it was he who brought back the news that everyone was still alive when all the guilds and powerful figures could not find any trace of their companions.

This made everyone believe in him even more.

Amid cheers from the crowd, Shirou Kotomine walked to the front of the stage and addressed everyone standing below.

"Everyone, I am very happy to take over the position of president, but I know that this is both an honor and a responsibility."

"Especially with all the guild's main forces trapped, but I think everyone, like me, is unwilling to let Fairy Tail weaken like this."

"When Natsu and Gray come back, they'll definitely laugh and mock us. Erza might even punish us severely. Just imagine that scene, can you accept it? I certainly can't."

After Kotomine Shirou finished speaking, everyone present couldn't help but imagine the environment he described.

This immediately sent chills down their spines.

They don't want that kind of thing!

"No, I won't accept that either!"

"We absolutely cannot let Natsu laugh at us!"

"Erza's punishment! No!"

Various cries of agony rang out, and looking at the crowd, Shirou Kotomine couldn't help but smile.

Shirou Kotomine knew, of course, that Natsu Gray and Erza wouldn't do that, but their usual behavior did make people unconsciously imagine that.

"If you don't want to, then let's move forward again towards becoming the strongest guild in the Kingdom of Fiore, even if we fall into a slump during this period."

"But I sincerely believe we can still get back to where we are. And if you ask why, it's because we are Fairy Tail!"

Raising his palm high, Shirou Kotomine shouted loudly.

"oh!!!"

"Fairy Tail!"

Fairy Tail!

Fairy Tail!

"7

Looking at Shirou Kotomine on the stage, everyone below the stage shouted "Fairy Tail" loudly.

The sound resounded throughout Magnolia.

After Shirou Kotomine delivered his inaugural address, the entire guild began a lively celebration.

Fairy Tail quickly returned to its active state.

Seeing this scene, Macao and Wakaba were both very excited.

Fairy Tail is back.

"By the way, where's Shirou?"

After a moment of excitement, Macao, who wanted to find Shirou Kotomine to express his feelings, suddenly discovered that Shirou Kotomine was gone.

He quickly asked Wakaba, who was standing next to him.

"It seems he went up to the second floor."

"Let's go upstairs and find him."

After finding Kotomine Shirou's trail, Marcao and Wakaba headed up to the second floor.

The second floor is a place only S-rank mages can go; there are S-rank and above missions that only S-rank mages can accept.

Normally, that's a place only the guild master and S-class mages can go.

However, both Macao and Wakaba were able to go up at this point.

Because both of them were appointed as advisors to Fairy Tail by Shirou Kotomine.

As consultants, they are certainly qualified.

Marcao and Wabaka, who had gone up to the second floor, quickly found Shirou Kotomine standing in front of the quest board, staring at the S-rank quest list.

"What's wrong, Shirou? Why aren't you going down to celebrate with everyone?"

"I'm thinking about how to rebuild the guild's reputation and regain the trust of those who have questioned us because of the disappearance of our main members."

Kotomine Shirou stared at the quest log and said in a low voice.

"Have you got any ideas yet?"

"It already exists."

Kotomine Shirou nodded.

"What method?"

Macao's eyes lit up and he quickly asked.

Regaining the trust of clients is a very important matter.

No matter how much trust Fairy Tail members place in Shirou Kotomine, if he cannot provide them with sufficient responsibilities, a large number of members will still leave.

After all, humans don't live in a vacuum.

Everyone needs money.

Those who are older or have families and children need money even more.

The fact that Fairy Tail suffered such a loss of personnel seven years later does not mean that those who left were heartless. Many of them lived not only for themselves, but also for others.

Therefore, maintaining the trust of the principals and giving these trusting members sufficient entrustment is of utmost importance.

"I plan to complete all of the dozen or so S-level commissions upstairs in one go."

Looking at Macao and Wakaba, whose eyes were full of expectation, Shirou Kotomine smiled and said.
