Chapter 76
The two of them were in a state of panic.
What Leila didn't know was that his feeling was not wrong.
The night before yesterday, Makarov deliberately left one person behind.
The guild was closed, so he immediately opened the barrier inside the guild, and after confirming that there was no one around, the two began to talk.
"You want me to sneak into the Council?" Mester looked solemnly, looking at Makarov in disbelief.
"You're the only one who can do this." Makarov narrowed his eyes and answered seriously.
"Is it to steal something?" Mester asked immediately.
"It's not this kind of mission. I hope you can provide me with all the information about the Western Continent." Makarov said his purpose in a calm voice.
"Then you go find Leila. Can't you search for her with her magic?" Mest was stunned for a moment when he heard Makarov's words, and then asked with doubt.
"No, he shouldn't be able to get it. The information is a bit secret, and his magic shouldn't have any information." Makarov shook his head and denied this method.
"Okay, but why?" Mest spread his hands and accepted the task, but still couldn't help asking curiously.
"I hope you promise me not to ask too much. This is to protect the guild and my family." Makarov opened his eyes, his eyes were firm, and he said to Mest in a solemn tone.
His eyes were sharp and pierced Mest's heart.
When Mest saw Makarov's expression, he knew that this matter was not simple at all. Since it was for everyone in the guild, he had to be more cautious.
"In this case, we must do it perfectly. By the way, just erase your memory." Mest suddenly became excited, his eyes were full of wisdom, and the smile on his face overflowed.
"Let's forget about it." Makarov was ashamed and advised.
After that, Mester was ready and told Makarov about the method he had set to remove the memory erasure magic.
In just two days, the memories of the guild members were completely erased. However, when he erased Leila's memory, he heard a few words from Leila, and then returned to the guild, reported the progress to Makarov, and prepared to set off.
"President, I think Leila seems to have noticed something." Mester was a little worried. Leila was too sensitive.
"How was the memory erasure?" Makarov didn't care, just asked about the memory erasure.
"Everything about me in the past few years has been erased."
"That's enough. Leila's soul power is relatively strong, so it's not surprising that she has noticed something." Makarov immediately explained.
"Well, I'll start now."
"Be careful." Makarov said earnestly.
"Don't worry, President." Mester smiled slightly, then cast a teleportation magic, disappeared instantly, and rushed towards the Council.
Makarov had already made arrangements and rented a room in a town not far from the Council for Mester to stay.
When Mester arrived, he would erase his memory and add some fictitious memories.
Next, he would participate in the Council's personnel assessment and successfully enter the Council's intelligence department, so that he could obtain the information Makarov needed.
"Alas, I hope everything goes well." Makarov recalled Mester's appearance and sighed helplessly.
When Yajima communicated with him, he said that he invited Gildarts to become the "Holy Ten", and he didn't understand it. Usually, the group of councilors couldn't accept this situation.
Later, he learned some things through Yajima's words, but because of Yajima's identity as a councilor, he couldn't tell Makarov too much, and he only knew some ordinary information.
What Makarov wanted to know was the purpose of the Albares Empire's attack.
For such a long time, the Albares Empire had not made any moves. It already had the weapons of the Council to deter it. How could it suddenly prepare to start a war at this time?
The only thing that could attract their attention on this continent was that.
Perhaps Makarov could get the answer by asking Leila directly, but unfortunately, he thought too much.
Leila's ancient script magic might not be able to know the truth, but his memory remembered it clearly.
On the other side, August attended the meeting. As the head of the Twelve Holy Shields, he had to be present for such things. If he was not there, no one could make the decision on their own. After all, this country was created and developed by him and His Majesty.
Development.
After learning the content of the meeting, Augustus strongly opposed it. Although some other radical Twelve Shields wanted to start a war, they were all rejected by Augustus, and they were warned not to try to make decisions for His Majesty.
Zeref took Obra to sit on the emperor's seat. His expression was full of pity, his eyes were empty, and he stared at the table blankly, as if he recalled something.
Finally, Zeref issued an ultimatum, prohibiting the war against Ishgar.
What's more, Augustus could see that Zeref still had some nostalgia for that place, which carried the happiest time of his life. That thing would basically not happen, at least before Zeref changed his mind.
After Augustus went back, he did not tell Mavis and Leila about this matter. After all, it was not launched in the end, and telling it out would only add to the trouble.
A few days later, Dolanbart took his materials and walked towards the Council.
After arriving at the good department, he handed the information to the staff.
After that, you have to wait for the review to pass, and then prepare for the magic test, interviewer assessment and other steps before you can join the Council.
Dolanbart's information is very complete, and his experience is also perfect. He has passed the assessment in the first trial.
After the second item - magic test, Dolanbart's magic nature was determined to be suitable for working in the intelligence department.
For the final assessment, Dolanbart waited excitedly. After watching the people in the queue in front of him go in, he felt a little nervous.
However, after entering, he quickly adjusted his state. Facing the questions raised by the interviewer sitting there, he talked freely and finally successfully entered the Council. However, at the beginning, he was just an ordinary intelligence officer and could not access any important news.
"Thank you, Lord Zikrein."
"It's okay, don't be so polite. I'm not much older than you. I hope you can shine in the Council."
"Yeah!" Dolanbart nodded heavily with a bright smile on his face.
"Next."
After Dolanbart left, the person behind him just now walked in, wearing a pair of glasses and looking gentle and refined.
"Hello, my name is Lahar..."
One month later, in the secluded corridor outside the intelligence department in the Magic Council.
"Since we have severed diplomatic relations with the Western Continent, intelligence is also as difficult as a tangled mess."
"Really." Makarov replied calmly. Intelligence is indeed difficult to obtain. From the moment he decided to let Mester infiltrate, he had made long-term preparations.
"By the way, the councilors really hate our guild." Dolanbart said to Makarov with a helpless tone.
"I think so too." Makarov didn't have any expression. After all, he knew about this kind of thing a long time ago.
"Really." Mester saw Makarov's indifferent look and knew that it was useless to say anything.
"You too, you really erased your memory to infiltrate." Makarov complained.
"It's okay, as long as the president helps me solve it, I will recover my memory." Mester didn't care. Being able to infiltrate perfectly was the most important thing.
"You are really smart, Mester." Makarov also praised.
"No, I used the name Dolanbart during the infiltration." Mester accepted it happily, but corrected his name.
"Then I will leave first, I will come to you again, Dolanbart." Makarov also cooperated.
In the days that followed, the old man basically came to see Mester once every few months, but there was no accurate news, so everything had to be done slowly.
