Makarov heard Gar's question and said,
"It's nothing much, mainly due to the impact of this incident."
"The influx of a large number of Dark Magicians into the Fiore Kingdom has brought some chaos to the maintenance of order in the Kingdom."
"Many ministers in the Kingdom have used this matter to attack us."
"Just now, the Town Chief also came to inform me that the Kingdom has stopped supporting the town, and its future development can only rely on the town itself."
"To regain the Kingdom's support, it will probably have to wait until after this matter is over."
"Anyway, the Town Chief's tone was full of complaints."
"Also, many people in the Council have condemned our rash act of starting a war."
"Saying some nonsense about affecting the order of the Magic world on the Ishgar Continent, and even wanting us to pay a fine?"
"Are you kidding me."
"They've already started giving orders to hunt down our members, and they still care about their damn order."
Makarov said indifferently, evidently not taking those guys to heart.
Gar nodded and asked,
"What about Grimoire Heart?"
"What did the Council decide?"
Makarov said,
"Although there are many who condemn us, there are also many who support us."
"And because there are more people supporting us."
"The Council has already started sending troops to clear out the Dark Guilds in various places."
"After this time, Grimoire Heart will definitely be severely weakened."
"If you want to make a move, you'd better hurry."
"These guys regretted giving the information and are now eager to reap the rewards."
Gar nodded and said,
"I'll set off in the next couple of days."
"This situation..."
"It seems our 'thank you letter' worked."
They were clearly preparing to strike Grimoire Heart, yet they still took a swipe at Fairy Tail.
Knowing they couldn't touch Fairy Tail for now, they came up with something like a fine to annoy them.
Makarov was stunned for a moment, then said with some realization,
"You mean... the Black Magic Cult?"
"No wonder."
"I was wondering why things suddenly got so chaotic these past few days."
"It's not a coincidence."
Before, Makarov hadn't paid attention, thinking only that more Council members had returned these past few days, leading to significant disagreements.
But now, hearing Gar say this, he instantly reacted.
Both sides were being dealt with.
The town where Fairy Tail is located had its support policy from the Kingdom stopped, and its development had to rely on itself, while many Council members also criticized them.
Grimoire Heart was specifically targeted, and under the vote of the majority of first and second-tier Council members in the Council, a cleanup operation was launched against Grimoire Heart's subordinate Guilds.
Yet, it was done so quietly that even Makarov, who was discussing it in the Council, didn't notice anything was wrong.
Makarov's brow furrowed:
"Looking at it this way."
"The forces controlled by the Black Magic Cult are quite large."
"Never mind those ministers in the Kingdom."
"So many first and second-tier Council members in the Council are actually intricately connected...."
The Magic Council is composed of a Speaker and nine Council members, as well as many first and second-tier Council members who jointly monitor the actions of Magician Guilds and Magicians in various places.
These first and second-tier Council members are qualified to make proposals and vote.
The decision to specifically target Grimoire Heart this time was made through voting.
Gar, however, was indifferent, shrugging his shoulders and saying,
"No choice."
"That's what they specialize in."
"Once we have a chance to find their base, we'll just kill them all."
Makarov's mouth twitched slightly:
"You're really not holding back."
"If it were that easy to find, the Magic Council would have found it long ago...."
