"Regarding the candidates for the remaining six council mber positions, if you have any suggestions or candidates you wish to recomnd, please put them forward. We will then vote to select, and those with the highest number of votes will be appointed."
After being elected Chairman, Gran Doma didn't get carried away.
He still brought the selection of these six council mber positions out into the open.
However, in Gran Doma's heart, he was very unhappy.
Under normal procedures and circumstances, these were all internal matters of the "Council."
Even the selection of council mbers would be resolved internally without needing to cede power like this.
Of course, being unhappy was one thing, but doing what needed to be done was another.
Gran Doma still had a clear understanding of the current situation.
With such a scandal, this council mber nomination process had to be handed over to everyone.
Only in this way could they gain everyone's trust and officially form this "Council Team."
Once they started operating officially, this power would naturally not be shared anymore and would beco the "Magic Council's" own power.
After all, he was currently dealing with the ss left by his predecessor, and would be for a long ti.
"I have so ideas. Perhaps we can let the Wizard Saints serve concurrently." Marco proposed a suggestion.
He thought this was a very good choice.
The "Wizard Saints" were powerful and knowledgeable, unlikely to be fooled by petty tricks, and could provide stable power support for the Magic Council.
"..."
Hearing Marco's suggestion, Gran Doma's mouth twitched involuntarily.
The "Ten Wizard Saints" held a transcendent status in the entire Ishgar Continent, far beyond what ordinary mages could compare to.
Once they entered the Council, what presence would he, the Chairman, have left?
He might as well just abdicate and let the strong take over!
The Ten Wizard Saints Marco ntioned were definitely different from the likes of Siegrain.
Siegrain could beco one of Ten Wizard Saint largely because of his pure roots as one of the "Magic Council's" own, and the support of council mbers led by Org and Michelo.
Org and Michelo supported Siegrain because his competitor was Marco.
They didn't want Fairy Tail's reputation to be too heavy, so they deliberately suppressed it, resolutely preventing Marco from becoming a Ten Wizard Saint as well.
In short, Siegrain's position as a "Ten Wizard Saint" had low public recognition due to various reasons.
He was a "Custom-made Saint" completely dependent on the Magic Council, and his prestige couldn't compare to other Ten Wizard Saints.
Marco's existence had once given Siegrain quite a headache.
Without Marco, he wouldn't have suffered so much criticism.
The remaining "Ten Wizard Saints" were mostly veterans.
In terms of prestige and connections, they were naturally top-tier.
Gran Doma dared not imagine how suppressed he would be after those Ten Wizard Saints entered the council.
"This is inappropriate."
Without hesitation, Gran Doma voiced his refusal directly.
It wasn't just Gran Doma; quite a few people chose to refuse this ti.
Among the existing five of the Ten Wizard Saints, two were from Fairy Tail—one being Guild Master Makarov, and the other being Warrod Sequen, one of the guild's founders.
If Jose Porla, the vanguard of the Anti-Fairy Tail faction were still around or if Siegrain, representing the "Magic Council," were still here, this suggestion might have been adopted.
Because there would be people among the Ten Wizard Saints who could rival Fairy Tail.
But now, this suggestion was hard to pass; the "Fairy Tail" content was too high.
"There is no need to disturb the highly respected Ten Wizard Saints to co out for these trivial matters of the Magic Council for the ti being."
Gran Doma's refusal was crisp and decisive.
He resolutely would not adopt this suggestion, and for this, he was willing to pay a price.
"Then I have no other ideas." Marco shrugged.
When he recomnded the "Ten Wizard Saints" as council mbers this ti, he really didn't overthink it.
He just felt the "Magic Council" needed security guarantees, and the "Ten Wizard Saints" obviously had no issues with qualifications or strength.
The "Magic Council" had been infiltrated right under their noses.
If they still didn't pay attention to this, in case Jellal and Ultear had suddenly attacked back then, they might have wiped them all out in one pot!
"Actually, I'm not very willing to take up this council mber position either." Makarov whispered from the side.
As one of the Ten Wizard Saint, he didn't want to be a council mber.
There were too many things to do.
He was almost a hands-off boss in his own guild; how could he want to be a council mber?
"..."
seeing his well-intentioned suggestion rejected, Marco didn't bother saying more.
He shut his mouth directly, watching Org, Belno, and Leiji begin to recomnd people from within the Magic Council to serve as council mbers.
The mage guilds also put forward a council mber candidate: "Iron Rock" Jura Neekis from Lamia Scale.
Most mages weren't interested in this position because they felt being a Council mber restricted freedom too much.
Not only did they have to stay in the "Magic Council" every day to deal with various issues, but vacations were pitifully few.
Although there was a fixed salary, this was a real job. Unlike their usual lives, as long as they had money, they could work for three days and slack off for two.
Anyway, for the mages of Fairy Tail, the allure of this "Council mber" position was extrely low, so Makarov and Marco didn't recomnd anyone for it at all.
That "Iron Rock" Jura Neekis was willing to be this council mber actually surprised everyone.
After all, this guy's strength was quite good.
It was said that the old lady Ooba Babasaama of Lamia Scale was pushing him to beco one of the Ten Wizard Saint.
Why would he be so unable to think it through and want to be a council mber of the Magic Council?
