Chereads / Crypto Gold in Fairy Tail / Chapter 2 - The Destroyed Rosemary Village

Chapter 2 - The Destroyed Rosemary Village

Arden, who was exhausted both physically and mentally, walked hard and carefully searched every corner of the nearly ruined village.

Maybe it's God's blessing! In a dilapidated, crumbling house, a huge piece of bread lay quietly on the ground. It had suffered heavy damage and was soaked by rain, but for Arden, who was extremely hungry at that moment, it was undoubtedly a life-saving straw!

Arden no longer cared about anything else. He pounced on the piece of bread like a hungry wolf, grabbed it from the mud without hesitation, and chewed it like an evil ghost reincarnated. I didn't even have time to chew it, so I swallowed it together with the rainwater.

As food slowly filled his empty stomach, Arden finally felt that a long-lost vitality was returning to his body.

As if he had gained a new life, he let out a long sigh of relief. This time, I finally came back to life!

After waiting for the rain to stop in the semi-destroyed house, Arden searched among the ruins and found a few dirty pieces of dry bread that had fallen to the ground. He also found a few books and some damaged records with written texts. 

Although these records were written in words that Arden had never read before, Arden could understand the meaning.

In this regard, Arden believes that this is the body's function.

From these texts and books, Arden collected some information.

First of all, the mountain village he is in now is a small mountain village called Rosemary Village.

Secondly, there is an element of magic in this world.

As for the end...

Arden looked at the magic book in his hand, which had survived because it was well hidden, and at the learning methods for Take Over recorded on it. At this moment, he finally knew what world he had traveled to.

"It's the Fairy Tail world."

Arden murmured to himself, summarizing the information in his mind.

"Rosemary Village, Fairy Tail... Tsk, this is the village where Erza and Kagura lived when they were children!"

Combined with the current situation in the village, it is not difficult for Arden to guess that Rosemary Village has been kidnapped by the Zeref-following cult at this moment, and the people in the village have been forced to become slaves to build the R system in the Tower of Heaven.

In the plot, only the hidden Kagura survived, but her brothers Simon and Erza were captured.

Now, there is one more survivor, Arden Solis.

Arden smiled bitterly. If he hadn't traveled through dimension, the original owner of this body would probably have died.

Not to mention how he hid in the dry well, it was so high that he could have thrown a child to death.

Even if he didn't fall to death, there was no way he could climb out of such a high dry well with the strength of his body!

Then the only thing waiting for this body is to slowly starve to death at the bottom of the well, and no one will notice this!

"If this is the case, then there is only one way before me."

Arden found a rag and wrapped the bread.

There was only one way before him, and that was to defect to Fairy Tail.

This world is still very dangerous, and its combat effectiveness is still quite high.

Even if he has a white card now, he will be a relatively powerful child until he dies. In a world like this, if he doesn't find a safe place, he will probably die very quickly.

Of course, in addition to Fairy Tail, other magician guilds are also available to Arden.

But knowing that the main plot revolves around Fairy Tail, I still feel a little bit shortchanged if I don't join in.

What's more, there are many popular female characters in Fairy Tail, and you wouldn't believe it if they didn't put any thought into it.

"It's a pity. If I could have established a good relationship with Erza and Kagura earlier, wouldn't it be that those who come first get the moon? However, Erza was caught in the Tower of Heaven, and Kagura probably entered the Mermaid Heel as well. Basically, there is no chance."

As Arden left Rosemary Village along the dirt road of the mountain village, he joked happily: "Even If Erza and Kagura are gone, then there are Mirajane, Lisanna, Cana, Wendy, Lucy, Evergreen..."

After talking for a while, Arden finally sighed.

The ideal is beautiful, but the reality is cruel.

Now he has no idea where Fairy Tail is located in Magnolia, he only knows that it is a port city in the Kingdom of Fiore.

So if you want to go, the best way is to take a boat.

Rosemary Village is relatively close to the seaside, so Arden can only take one step at a time, first find a city by the sea, and then find a way to get to Magnolia by boat.

After walking for a day, Arden's feet had blistered several times, but he still couldn't see the shadow of the town while following the road.

The good news is that no dangerous creatures were seen along the way and Arden was safe.

The bad news is that the remaining bread is almost gone, and the free single draw did not appear the next day!

For Arden, this was completely unexpected.

Originally, if he had a chance to draw a single card every day if he was lucky, he would be able to fill up his six card slots in five days. Even if they were all white cards, he recognized that the increase in attributes alone would be a great success. OK

But now, his dream is shattered.

In order to protect himself, Arden looked at the magic book, which recorded the learning method of Take Over Magie.

In the plot, Mirajane awakens Take Over magic, while Elfman and Lisanna learn to Take Over magic through study.

Arden had no hope of awakening magic. Now that he had a way to learn magic, he naturally chose this path.

Therefore, when Arden was on the road, he would take out the magic book and read it, hoping that he could learn to receive magic.

Generally speaking, if you want to learn a certain kind of magic, you must invest a lot of energy and time.

But when Arden decided to start learning to receive magic, he suddenly found that a state of receiving magic (1%) appeared on the skill bar of the character interface.

As Arden read through the magic book, this percentage continued to increase.

This gave Arden a great incentive.

Maybe my Gold Finger is not as bad as I thought. Maybe I can rely on this convenience to learn more magic!

Thinking like this, Arden flipped through the magic book faster.

Arden spent a day reading the magic book while rushing. After reading the entire magic book, the magic reception in the skill bar reached 100%!

The next moment, countless pieces of information rushed into Arden's mind like an initiation. Arden easily understood the information, as if he had practiced it hundreds of thousands of times!

"Take Over Magic: Heroic Soul."

Arden digested all the information and also understood the specific method of using his Take Over magic.

But after knowing everything, Arden became depressed.

Because his Take Over magic is linked to his Gold Finger!

In other words, the only thing he can Take Over is his card, which is the so-called soul of the heroic spirit!

Although, in this case, a lot of dangers are saved. Just look at the dangers of Elfman trying to Take Over the Soul of the Beast King.

But this also means that if Arden doesn't have any good cards, this magic reception is just a decoration!
