Although everyone knows it in their hearts.
The only ones with that strength in the guild were Luo Xingchen and Laxus.
However, these two people are not necessarily the only ones participating in the assessment.
In case, my efforts during this period of time are seen in the eyes.
It is not impossible to become the third person by then.
After all, dreams still exist.
What if it happens that day?
The people in the guild got together in twos and threes, discussing constantly.
"S-rank wizard! I'm already on fire!"
Natsu clenched his fists and became inexplicably excited.
"Why are you so excited for a person who can only perform D-level tasks?"
Gray did not hesitate to hit his deadly opponent.
"Huh? What are you talking about, drooping eyes!"
Natsu was immediately annoyed.
The drum boss's eyes were fixed on Gray.
Retorted: "Aren't you the same?"
Gray curled his lips in disdain, and replied:
"I'm different from you. I'm a person who has performed A-level missions."
"It's just luck, Xingchen took you there, and you didn't seem to have done anything in that mission, so come back."
Natsu crossed her arms,
Telling about the news that was inquired from Karna.
"That's better than you, too."
"How are you better than me?"
"Everywhere!"
"asshole!"
"..."
Kana on the side ignored the mutual confrontation between the two.
Put your hands on your chest and make a prayer: "I'm so nervous..."
"S-rank mage? I must choose it!" Miraj clenched his hands.
Appear confident.
"That... Sister Mira, I think it seems a bit impossible..."
Lisanna reminded her sister in a low voice.
"After all, we've only been here for a month. Sister Mira, you haven't completed any tasks yet."
Hear Lisanna's words.
Milaj suddenly said: "That's right, then..."
He glanced at Erza who was on the side:
"Then I curse Erza not to be chosen!"
Coincidentally, this sentence was completely heard by Ersha.
Immediately, Erza's face darkened.
Shen Sheng said:
"I didn't hear wrong just now, you must have said something bad, bad girl?"
"Bad? Who are you calling bad?! You and this tough woman!"
Milaj didn't show any sign of weakness.
"I'm talking about you, the woman with her navel exposed!"
"Armor girl!"
"Skinny girl!"
"Fat pig!"
"..."
Lisanna on the side helplessly supported her forehead, and sighed:
"Why did it become like this?"
—————
After entering the guild,
Luo Xingchen saw the blond-haired boy standing in the corner at a glance.
Not discussed with others.
He just leaned against the corner of the wall and closed his eyes.
It seemed a little out of place.
Shaking his head, regarding the character of Laxus,
Luo Xingchen had no choice.
He will never listen to any of your words.
Then Luo Xingchen turned his gaze back.
But Laxus on the other side seemed to notice Luo Xingchen's gaze.
He opened his eyes and pondered for a while.
He moved his steps and walked towards Luo Xingchen.
"Laxus? What's the matter?"
Seeing Laxus' arrival, Luo Xingchen was a little taken aback.
After all, this was the first time that Laxus took the initiative to find someone.
"This time the S-rank mage upgrade assessment, let's fight!"
without too many words,
Laxus issued a gauntlet directly to Luo Xingchen.
"It seems that you have been looking forward to it for a long time. Are you not afraid that I am not selected?"
Luo Xingchen responded.
But Laxus shook his head and said:
"You and I both understand that the two of us are bound to be selected,"
"In the same way, if you can't even be selected for the S-rank wizard upgrade assessment, I won't come to you."
After a pause, he looked directly at Luo Xingchen,
His eyes were full of seriousness: "I will prove that I am stronger than you!"
Looking at Laxus at this moment.
Luo Xingchen was also silent for a moment, then nodded: "Okay, I agree!"
Seeing this, Laxus smiled slightly.
"Very well, then see you during the assessment!"
After putting down these words, Laxus turned around directly,
He left here without hesitation.
————
On the other side, Gray and Natsu were head to head.
Sparks flickered in the four eyes.
The mouth is still talking nonsense.
And Erza, who should have appeared to stop the two of them,
Now I don't have the mood to deal with Naz and Gray.
At this moment, she was pulling Milaj's cheek desperately with both hands.
And his crimson hair was also firmly held by Milaj in his hands.
The two fell into a stalemate.
No one is willing to let go first.
But fortunately, Makarov's voice stopped the two of them in time.
"Be quiet, little ones!"
The curtain on the stage was slowly opened, and two voices, one high and one low, appeared in front of everyone.
One is the third generation chairman of Fairy Tail - Makarov.
One is Fairy Tail's current strongest S rank,
It is also the only S-rank mage, Kildas who hurried back a few days ago.
His eyes scanned the audience, waiting until everyone quieted down.
Makarov coughed twice and said:
"I won't go into too much detail, let's get straight to the point."
"In this year, there are only two people who are eligible to participate in the S-rank wizard assessment."
"Their strength, intelligence, and beliefs are all seen by the old man, so they are qualified to climb the S-rank ladder!"
"First of all, it's Laxus Dolea!"
Makarov announced the first name.
He looked at his grandson,
No mood swings were found in him.
Without hesitation, Makarov announced the second name again.
"Then, it's Luo Xingchen!"
"The above are the candidates for the S-rank mage this time."
Under the stage, Luo Xingchen who heard his name turned to look in Laxus' direction.
Coincidentally.
At this moment, Laxus is also watching here.
The eyes of the two looked at each other across the distance of dozens of seats and benches.
It's like a silent declaration before a battle.
