The chat panel vibrated.
Whitebeard: "@Everyone, did you all get home safely?"
[Rin Tohsaka: "We're home, Whitebeard."]
Erica: "Arrived safely."
Kanae: "Yes, I'm back. Dad, don't worry."
[Lu Li: "Same."]
Whitebeard: "Kid, those brats are always trying to push me to the position of Pirate King. They're all a bit impatient, so don't mind them."
[Lu Li: "I understand. I don't mind. They just don't know we're not from that world."]
Whitebeard: "That's good. These brats have been trying to make me the Pirate King, but they don't realize that becoming the Pirate King isn't easy."
Whitebeard: "If I were young, I could fight for these sons, but now my greatest wish is to protect them."
Whitebeard: "I know my body; I don't know how many more years I can hold on. That's why I took the liberty of making you the vice-captain of the Whitebeard Pirates. I know my actions were somewhat selfish."
[Lu Li: "Father, what are you saying? Your affairs are my affairs. Besides, you're still in good health. Don't say such unlucky things."]
[Rin Tohsaka: "Yeah! Old Whitebeard, you're sure to live to be a hundred."]
Whitebeard: "Gurararara (addi)! Don't worry, I, Whitebeard, have lived for so many years, I've seen all kinds of sights, I've long since disregarded life and death. If it weren't for worrying about those wretched sons, I would have wanted to rest long ago."
Whitebeard appeared very nonchalant about life and death, and his words also revealed his deep affection for his family.
After chatting for a while longer, the group logged off.
A short while later, the magic power was fully replenished.
Lu Li stood up and stretched.
"I've rested for a bit too long, it's time to get back to work."
Lu Li strode toward the Fairy Tail guild.
Even though he is now the richest man in the Fairy Tail guild, that's just how people are—the richer they are, the more they want to make money.
He also really enjoys saving money, and seeing the balance in his bank account gives him a great sense of satisfaction.
Moreover, as a traditional good man, I always feel like something is missing if I don't work for a long time.
After all, work is a part of life.
Lu Li arrived at the second floor of the guild and saw several new S-rank commissions, which made his eyes light up.
His favorite tasks are those with high pay; he immediately accepts the highest-paying one.
After inquiring with the guild leader, it turned out that not long ago, during the local guild's regular meeting, Makarov proudly boasted that his guild had gained two new S-rank mages.
Furthermore, they completed four S-rank missions, so other guilds transferred their S-rank missions to Fairy Tail.
This is why Fairy Tail has so many S-rank missions.
Lu Li can now do whatever he wants without worry.
A month passed quietly, and Lu Li once again broke his mission record, completing 5 S-level mission commissions in one month.
The efficiency of this task surprised everyone in the guild.
Makarov was overjoyed. He had previously complained that the brat hadn't done any work in a long time, but Lu Li gave him such a big surprise.
It seems that this brat no longer cares about missions below S-rank after becoming an S-rank mage.
It seems he'll have to contact his old friends in the local guilds more often to try and get some more jobs.
Looking at the numbers in his bank card, Lu Li realized that after completing five S-level missions, his bank account balance had exceeded 100 million.
His heart was filled with happiness.
What is a billion? For him, let alone a billion, even ten thousand would be difficult.
He always felt that there was a saying that made a lot of sense: money isn't everything, but you can't do anything without it.
Suddenly, buzz—!
Lu Li felt the chat group vibrate, clearly someone had tagged him again.
[Erica: @Lu Li, darling, emergency! The God of Disobedience has appeared again!!]
Chapter 101 God-King Mercato
These disobedient gods are really annoying.
[Lu Li: "Call my name!"]
Erica was already very skilled at summoning Lu Li.
As a divine skill for infidelity—no, a divine skill that transcends world barriers—Lu Li is also very skilled at using 'Strong Wind'.
Swish! !
A tornado appeared around Lu Li's body, which floated up and then disappeared instantly.
When Lu Li reappeared, he was already beside Erica.
Rumble—!
As soon as Lu Li arrived here, he heard the roar of thunder.
The sky was covered with dark clouds, and dense lightning bolts danced within them, turning the dim sky a bluish-white.
It was pouring rain in the city because of the excessive rainfall.
By this time, the city roads were already flooded, and many vehicles were submerged. Looking at the continuous rain in the sky, it was only a matter of time before the entire city was flooded.
Lu Li saw a giant standing over fifteen meters tall in the center of the city.
With disheveled hair, a thick beard, and bulging muscles, he exuded a sacred majesty despite wearing very tight clothing.
With just one glance, Lu Li knew that this guy was the one who caused all this trouble—the God of Disobedience.
“My dear, you’ve come.”
Seeing Lu Li appear, Erica finally felt more confident.
"Who is this guy?"
Lu Li looked at the disobedient god in the distance and asked.
"Mecarto is the king of the gods, a great warrior, and the strongest hunter who slays dragons."
"never heard of that."
Lu Li knew very little about mythology. He had only occasionally heard of some Greek and Chinese mythology in his previous life, and knew nothing else.
"But all we need to do is take him down, right?"
Not knowing someone doesn't prevent him from dealing with them.
"Wait a minute, let me go and communicate first. Fighting can only be used as a last resort."
This is a city after all. Although she has managed to get everyone away from here through her magic society, the loss would still be significant if the entire place were destroyed.
"I see! It's certainly good to be able to solve things with words, but in my experience, the probability of something being solved by words alone is less than one percent."
Lu Li did not approve of this method.
"We should give it a try."
"Then let's go over there."
Lu Li reached out and put his arm around Erica's slender waist, then flew towards the God of Disobedience.
Soon the two landed on top of the building next to the giant, and Erica jumped towards the position of the God of Disobedience.
"God!"
"You must be Lord Mercator, the god-king worshipped by the Phoenicians in the past!"
Mercato, hearing that someone knew him, looked at Erica:
"Oh! There are people in the world who know of the former me; that is commendable."
"I am Mercator, the king who was once known to all on this island, no, throughout the world!"
Erica breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Mercato was paying attention to her; she was afraid that these gods were too arrogant to communicate with humans like them.
“God! I have heard of your mercy. Why have you descended upon this place? You were once the protector of this land. Why have you chosen to bring disaster here?”
Mercato became somewhat angry upon hearing this: "Hmph! This sea was once the territory that served my people, but what has become of it now?"
"The people here have actually forgotten the name Mercator and defiled my sacred domain. Although I am a magnanimous god-king, I will not tolerate such folly!"
"Therefore, I have decided to punish these ignorant people with the most severe punishment. I will sink these islands, and then sink all the ancient territories I have seen!"
Rumble—!
The lightning streaked across the sky, as if the god was angry that the people he once protected no longer believed in him.
"God! Although they have forgotten your heroic deeds, this is a legacy of history. These people are innocent. We beg you to have mercy and spare these ignorant people."
"Hmph! Witch, are you trying to teach the gods how to do things? I'll spare your life just because you know my name. Now get lost!"

"God!"
Snap!
A bolt of lightning ripped through the sky and struck Erica.
Snapped!
Lu Li snapped his fingers.
Swish——!
A white, honeycomb-like magical shield enveloped Erica's body.
boom----! !
The lightning struck the magic shield, but it did not penetrate its defenses.
Lu Li slowly flew to Erica's side: "See? I told you it wouldn't work. I'll do it instead."
Erica nodded. These disobedient gods already looked down on humans, so her persuasion was useless.
. ...... ...
Mercato looked at Lu Li, his brows furrowing slightly, his eyes narrowing: "Kid, I sense the aura of a very annoying guy on you, Vereslana, yes, that guy's aura."
“Vereslana? I’ve already taken care of him.”
"You killed Vereslana? No wonder I sensed his challenge before, and then he vanished without a trace. So he was taken down!!"
"Hahahaha!! This is the best news I've heard since I woke up, but why don't I sense the aura of a god-slayer on you?"
"You mean Pandora? After I killed Veleslana, she didn't dare to show up and didn't perform the Godslayer reincarnation ritual on me, but she did give me Veleslana's powers, so I guess I'm half a Godslayer."
He certainly didn't want to be reincarnated as some kind of god-slayer, and thus walk the path of divine power.
He is a mage, and the best way to become stronger is naturally to cultivate magic. Simply put, he looks down on these so-called powers.
"Half a god-slayer? That's an interesting statement. Kid, are you here to stop me?"
Lu Li scratched the back of his head: "To be honest, I'm not particularly interested in powers or anything like that, and naturally I'm not interested in killing gods or anything like that either. If you choose to leave on your own, that would be the best outcome."
"If you don't leave, I wouldn't mind killing one more god." (Little)
Chapter 102 Magic VS Power
"Crazy!!!"
Rumble—!
A bolt of lightning struck Lu Li from the sky.
Lu Li didn't move at all, letting the lightning strike him. The current flowed through Lu Li's body and then quickly disappeared.
Mercato was somewhat surprised to see that his lightning had not caused any harm to Lu Li.
