Chapter 141: Ch 141 : Royal Council Meeting
At the same time, in the conference room of Edolas royal capital.
"Heh heh, just as the legends say, it has been confirmed that the wizards from Earthland all possess magic within their bodies."
Seated around a long table were all the Magic Warfare Squad captains except for Erza Knightwalker, along with the Kingdom's Supreme Commander, Noel, and two elderly men—six people in total.
The first to speak was a short, wrinkled old man, the trusted advisor of the Edolas king and the kingdom's chief strategist—Byro.
"Hmm, just like the Exceeds," mused the fourth Magic Warfare Squad captain, Sugarboy, who had yellow hair and wore pink armor, rubbing his chin with interest.
"But this magic power cannot be compared to that of the Exceeds."
"So, does that mean that girl named Lucy also has magic inside her?" asked Coco, an energetic young girl standing to the side, her curiosity piqued.
"It should be," someone replied.
"Wouldn't it be a waste to kill her?" questioned Hughes, the captain of the Third Magic Warfare Squad.
In the magic-starved world of Edolas, every bit of magic was precious.
Now that a person with considerable magic power was imprisoned, Hughes found it a waste to simply execute her, given his values regarding the importance of magic.
