The review work of the Senate is a bit cumbersome. After everyone has been questioned once, they have to be called several times.

Sometimes it's to corroborate the confessions of my companions, sometimes it's to corroborate the ghost's confessions, sometimes it's because there's news from the Senate headquarters and I hope to get some necessary testimony.

Inadequate testimony and evidence will be supplemented, and any discrepancies will be re-examined.

Repeated investigations and inquiries lasted for a full week.

Rhodes thought it was a bit long, but seeing that Lahar and the others were already working at their best, it was hard for him to complain.

Fortunately it's all over.

Laharl announced that the investigation and evidence collection were complete, and all Fairy Tail members could go home.

Only Makarov may need to go to the Senate in a few days, and the final verdict will be officially issued at that time.

Things like compensation will also be announced at that time.

Joseph had woken up three days ago, and it is still difficult to move around now. This time he will be taken directly to the Senate House, and it may be difficult for him to come out again.

Rhodes glanced at him from a distance and felt that this man would be useless even if he was released. It wasn't that his body was too seriously injured, but that his eyes had lost their sparkle.

Being defeated by a group of people he considers to be weak, ants, and the like may cast a shadow over his life. If he cannot get out, his magic power may also decline.

It's easy to get out of the shadows, just admit that Fairy Tail is very strong and he and his guild have taken the wrong path.

But this thing was almost impossible for Joseph.

In addition to Joseph, some tough-tongued ordinary members were also taken away, as well as Aliyah and Thor among the four elements, and the iron dragon Gajeel.

These people refuse to admit their mistakes and show no repentance. They will be taken away for a few days of education and released if they behave well. If they behave worse, they will be sentenced to short-term imprisonment.

As expected, the ruler of the ghosts was forcibly disbanded, and the members of the headquarters and branches were dismissed together.

Since the main responsibility lies with Joseph, they, ordinary members, will basically not be punished as long as they admit their mistakes and have a good attitude.

The only loss is that I have to pay for the medical expenses myself, and I will have to find another way to make a living later.

Makarov generously said that if you don’t know where to go, just come to Fairy Tail.

But no one among hundreds of people was willing.

A small number of them don’t even want to be magicians anymore after this incident, and are planning to start some small business or something like that.

Most of them were beaten too hard. Although they were moved by Makarov's tolerance, they couldn't let go immediately.

Instead of joining Fairy Tail, they would rather find some small guilds to try.

Originally, they joined Ghost because of Fiore's reputation as the number one, but now that they think about it, it's not that easy to stay in the first guild.

There are many monsters in the guild, and the guild's enemies may also be more terrifying monsters. They feel that it may be easier for a small guild.

During this seven-day review period, the news of the battle between Fairy Tail and Ghost had already spread throughout the country.

The detailed process has not been spread out yet, but rumors are flying all over the sky. So far, everyone knows that the headquarters of the two guilds have been destroyed, and both guild leaders have fallen. Even the reason for the war is not clear.

Many civilians are worried about this. The Kingdom of Fiore has been peaceful for a long time, and they don't know whether such a vicious incident will affect their lives.

In a few days, when the Council of Review's decision is official, this situation should be alleviated.

But before that, the former Ghost members who were lucky enough to witness the scene where Joseph was knocked down revealed the news first.

Although it was Joseph who combined everyone's efforts to win, Mira, Erza, Rhodes and Natsu who launched the final round of attacks greatly gained their reputation.

When more detailed news spread, Rhodes' name as the goblin strategist became known and recognized by more people.

They themselves were not very clear about these matters, because as soon as they left the Senate camp, everyone immediately began to prepare for the reconstruction of the guild.

The first thing to do is to organize and transfer important information. The president will take the lead, and girls such as Rebby, Lucy, and Lucky will be responsible for this (Erza and Kana are excluded from the girls).

Erza was responsible for leading people to dismantle the old guild, sort out the usable materials, and sell or throw away the useless ones.

Natsu, Gray and Elfman are particularly active in doing these things.

Mira and Rod are naturally responsible for purchasing necessary building materials such as stone and wood. Although Lucky can provide some wood, it is not easy to squeeze it too hard.

In addition, the two of them also need to hire some reliable craftsmen and ask professionals to correct the design drawings of the new guild.

In the past few days, the president and Lidas each drew a set, but one was too abstract and the other was too artistic, and they felt that they could not be used to guide construction.

After running around for a long time, Rhodes stopped and looked at the shopping list: "I just need paint. I can buy it later... Hey, I think I passed by a hardware store just now, right?"

Mira shook her head: "That one is too expensive, go to West Street and buy it." She calculated and opened her five fingers to Rhodes, "You can almost save this amount."

Mira's careful calculation was very cute. Rhodes grabbed the little hand waving in front of his eyes.

It was a white hand with neatly manicured nails and thin fingers. No one could have imagined that this little hand could crack mountains and crack rocks.

Rhode's fingertips gently touched a bloody scab on the back of her hand: "Does it still hurt?"

Mira smiled: "The pain has stopped a long time ago. I have been itching for the past two days." She was a little worried as she said that, "I don't know if there will be scars."

"It doesn't matter, I also like the scars all over my body." Rhodes put her hand to her lips and kissed it. The scab was hard, but the skin next to it was equally delicate.

Mira took out her hand and patted him gently: "You are the one covered in scars!"

"If you are really concerned about it, you can go to Wendy. She is also good at removing scars with magic. But she might be disliked by Xia Lulu..."

Rhodes looked like he was ready to die, "It doesn't matter, I'll speak up. At worst, I'll hold her thigh and beg her."

‘Please, Wendy, Xia Lulu, as long as it can cure Mira, you can do whatever you want!’ How about I say this? Or add another sentence…”

Mira said angrily: "Add whatever you want, it's not as exaggerated as you said."

She smiled, and all the worries in her heart disappeared.

Then Rhodes hugged her: "Okay, now it's your turn to recharge my batteries."

"Charge?"

"It's probably equivalent to the act of replenishing magic power to a magic crystal." Rhodes gently sniffed the fragrance on her hair, "I am currently lacking 'Mira Energy' and need to replenish it."

"Okay, okay~" Mira also hugged him.

After a while she asked: "How much longer are you going to hold me?"
