Chapter 520: “Fairy Tail Chamber of Secrets”

Guild Master, hold on a moment; this is quite sudden, and it seems like such a decision shouldnt be made in haste!

Seeing Makarov on the verge of leaving the office, Jerry quickly reached out, grabbed the back of his collar, and gently placed him back on the desk.

Of course, it was a playful gesture, as Jerry had only been with the Guild for a month, and it was far too early to consider him as a potential Guild Master.

Furthermore, Jerry never aspired to become the Guild Master.

While Fairy Tail might be the most powerful Guild in the kingdom, he wasnt the type to seek leadership.

External power, to him, was always secondary, with personal growth being his primary focus.

He also had plans to explore other places, like the renowned Magic Development Bureau, or visit Bisca and Alzack, the gun magic experts from the West Continent.

Thus, the position of Guild Master held little appeal for him; his true passion lay in magic.

It seemed Makarov could see the disinterest in Jerrys eyes regarding the position.

He stood on the desk and placed a hand on Jerrys shoulder, speaking earnestly, Jerry, even though its only been a little over a month, your contributions to the Guild are indelible.

Youve repaired the buildings damaged by your fellow members, eased the Guilds financial burdens, and even helped resolve council-related issues. If not for your efforts, not only would my life have been in jeopardy, but the entire Guild might have been dismantled due to Josephs conspiracy. Makarov continued.

He paused, then continued, Your contributions are certainly noteworthy, and I believe that with you as Guild Master, Fairy Tail will continue to prosper. You dont need to be modest.

But, Guild Master, I I never even thought about becoming the Guild Master

Jerry was about to decline, but Makarov cut him off mid-sentence, clearing his throat.

Ahem, and as the Guild Master, youll have access to the guilds deepest secret library room, where you can study a plethora of extraordinarily potent magics passed down by previous Guild Masters, he emphasized the words plethora and extraordinarily potent.

In just two months, he could step down as Guild Master and enjoy a more leisurely life.

***

Its amazing how sometimes the solution to a problem can be right at your doorstep without much effort!

Watching Makarov leave, Jerry couldnt help but smile.

He had anticipated a more complex negotiation, but Makarovs agreement seemed to have resolved the matter smoothly.

Not only did Jerry gain access to the Fairy Law and other powerful magics, but he also had the opportunity to explore the extensive repertoire of magic left behind by the Guilds three generations of Guild Masters.

Jerry, Makarov asked me to take you to the librarys secret room. I didnt expect things to wrap up so quickly in the office. I thought it would take much longer!

The door to the Guild Masters office swung open again, but this time, Mirajane entered, not Makarov.

Makarov had informed her about Jerrys succession before asking Jerry to come to the Guild, although she hadnt anticipated such a swift resolution to the matter.

Very well, Miss Mirajane, I appreciate your assistance, Jerry replied, somewhat puzzled by Mirajanes choice of words, but he didnt dwell on it.

Instead, he nodded and followed her down to the Guilds library.

The second basement of the Fairy Tail Guild was dedicated to its library, housing a vast collection of magic books and notes left behind by numerous wizards.

However, except for a few bookworms within the Guild, most Fairy Tail wizards preferred to gain strength through practical combat rather than reading books.

After discovering the library at Fairy Tail, Jerry borrowed magic books to expand his knowledge.

He didnt know until now that the library contained a hidden secret room housing the powerful magic books left behind by the predecessors before Jerry.

This is it. The Guild Master said you can take these books to study and that you can always ask him if you encounter any difficulties. However, he also wanted me to clarify that most of the magic books here are unfamiliar to him. Your progress depends entirely on yourself alone, Mirajane explained.
