Chapter 154 Erza: Father held a family banquet, guess who was not invited?
"In that case, we will retreat~"
Erza and Elle said, and with a wave of their little hands, the door to another world and the power of the space magic 'Water Wings' appeared in the hall on the first floor of the Magister Guild Fairy Tail.
"Boom!!"
For a moment, through the gate of the Water Wings, the rich magic power of the Elientia world suddenly surged out, filling the entire Fairy Tail guild hall, making all the magisters present look intoxicated.
"The magic of the world of Elentia is really rich!"
Uru narrowed her eyes. She inexplicably wanted to follow Erza and others to the world of Elientia. In that world full of magic, practicing would definitely be more effective with half the effort.
Of course, if even Uru leaves with Erza and others at this moment, then there will really be no one left to support the Fairy Tail S-Class Mage Examination this year!
Therefore, she stayed.
"Goodbye everyone~"
Erza watched the door of Water Wings open. She smiled and waved gently towards the magicians in the Fairy Tail Hall.
"Wait a moment..."
However, just when Erza and Elle were about to leave hand in hand, Kornuki, who had not spoken a word, walked up to his two 'sisters'...
(Kornuki is the first child born to Ian in this world. Therefore, he claims to be Ian's eldest son and the eldest brother of all Ian's children. However, if the order of pregnancy is followed, Erza is the eldest son of Ian. En's first child in this world should be the eldest sister of all Ian's children. However, in order to prevent Erza from being affected by the side effects of dragon-slaying magic, Irene performed a series of treatments on the embryonic Erza. A certain degree of transformation, which resulted in Erza being born later, so Kornuki did not recognize Erza's identity)
I saw Kornuki holding Erza and Elle who were about to leave, with tears in his eyes, and asked in a loud voice: "Sister! Mother, father, did they mention me? Huh?”
"Dear, brother Kurnuki..."
"Father and mother, for the sake of our little brother who is about to be born in this world, we specially invited everyone in our family, except for one member..."
"You might as well stay in the Fairy Tail Guild and think about it carefully. Who is the person who was not invited by Father and Mother?!"
Ailei tilted her head, looked at Kornuki with a smile, and spoke in a brisk tone.
"Yes, that person is you."
Erza didn't mean to hide it, she directly told Kurnuki the fact that she was not invited.
"No!!!"
"This is not true..."
When Kurnuki heard this, his fragile mind seemed unable to bear all this. He simply couldn't believe what he just heard, and he felt as if he was completely broken.
"I was bullied!"
Kornuki kept wiping his tears and cried loudly in a translator's voice: "Oh, my God, I can't believe it! I was actually beaten so hard by my own brothers and sisters and my biological parents. Bullying! You are going too far.”
Well, at this moment, Kornuki is trying to use his tears to awaken the consciences of his two sisters and let them understand that the family gathering without him, Kornuki, is incomplete.
"Gone~"
Unfortunately, Erza and Irene ignored Kornuki and left.
"Really gone?"
"It's too much to bully the dragon."
Kurnuki was dumbfounded when he saw this.
He originally thought that his two sisters were joking with him.
But now it seems that this is not a joke at all.
"It's okay, Kornuki, I understand you."
At the moment when Kurnuki's eyes burst into tears...
Kana put down the wine bottle and moved to Kornuki's side. She gently patted Kornuki on the shoulder and gave Kornuki a look that I knew.
Well, after all, just now, her good father Gildarts and Kana's good mother Cornelia, who didn't even look at her, went out for a trip together, holding hands and smiling.
Sure enough, parents are true love, and Kana is just an accident.
Gildas and Cornelia: "Dear Kanna, there is one thing we must tell you. First of all, I am really sorry. You were born when we were 'happy' and forgot to take protective measures. It symbolizes the culmination of our love! But it is precisely because of this that we have the cutest you in the world~”
Kana: "Stop talking, okay?! I'm convinced."
"Ahem..."
"Okay, it's time for you all to come to your senses..."
"Don't forget, we are currently conducting the most important event of the year for the Fairy Tail Guild! It is the S-Class Mage upgrade assessment."
On the other side, after Makarov saw Gildarts, Erza, and Elle all leaving, he coughed twice tactically to attract everyone's attention!
Only then has the progress begun, the next steps for this year's Magister Guild Fairy Tail, S-class magister assessment.
There is no way, even though the current assessment has become a mess...
But after all, he is the president of the guild, and he is also the chief examiner of this Fairy Tail S-class mage assessment. He has to go on with this assessment regardless.
"All in all..."
"Because of various force majeure reasons!"
"Gildas Clive, Erza Belserion and Elle Belserion, the Belserion sisters..."
"Nothing can be done. Our Magister Guild, Fairy Tail, is holding this year's S-Class Magister Examination. The examiners are present."
"Therefore, the number of examiners has been reduced from the original seven to four."
"They are Lacusas Dolea, Milaj Strauss, Uru Milkovich and Urrutiya Milkovich."
Makarov stroked his forehead, looking quite helpless, and announced in public that Gildarts and others were temporarily unable to participate in the Fairy Tail Guild's S-class magister assessment this year.
Immediately afterwards, Makarov seemed to have thought of something again. He slowly approached his grandson, Lacusus, and whispered in a low voice: "Well, then again, Lacusus, you Can you really be a good examiner for our Fairy Tail Guild’s S-class magister exam this year?”
"You know, the candidates who participated in our guild's S-level magister assessment this year are not very strong."
Makarov seemed not to trust the strength of his grandson Lacusus. He was afraid that his grandson would mess everything up.
"You underestimate me, don't you? Grandpa..."
When Lacusus heard this, his eyes twitched slightly...
He admitted that his strength was indeed still some distance away from Uru and Erza.
But as an examiner for this year's S-class magister assessment, it should still be enough.
Although, simply looking at the amount of magic power, Lakusas is indeed not as good as Neinhardt and Jacob, the former members of the Twelve Shields of the Alvares Empire!
But the battle of the magister has never been a game of simply comparing the amount of magic power!
The compatibility of experience, skills, mind, and magic is the key to determining the outcome of a game.
(Of course, this refers to the magic power of both parties. If the difference is not big, or you can explode, you are a member of the Magister Guild Fairy Tail. If you do not meet the above two conditions, please follow the Magister's instructions. Combat is a competition in magic, this is the first element)
"Ahem..."
"Of course, due to the temporary lack of three examiners for this year's S-level magister examination, our examination rules will be slightly changed this year!"
"The S-class magister assessment, which was originally going to be held on Tenrou Island, the Holy Land of Fairy Tail of the Magister Guild, will be changed to a one-on-one drawing of lots!"
"The rules for drawing lots are very simple. After a while, all the members who participated in this year's S-level assessment will come to my place to draw lots..."
"After drawing the numbered tickets, I will write your names under the corresponding numbers on this blackboard. Number one will fight against number two, number two will fight against number three, and so on!"
"The winners of the group competition will be promoted and continue to fight until the last person standing, and the final winner will be selected!"
"In other words, the final winner of this competition will become our Fairy Tail Guild, this year's S-class mage."
"How about it? The rules are simple, right?!"
Makarov wiped the cold sweat from his forehead...
He loudly announced the Fairy Tail Guild's rules for this year's S-class magister assessment.
It can be said that the rules for this year's S-class magister assessment are the simplest compared to previous years.
This is also because the members who participated in Fairy Tail's S-class magician examination this year are all extremely powerful.
The first is Kornuki. The power of other people's forms is at the level of a strong 'shield'!
The power of the dragon form surpasses the elite dragon. Like his sister Ailei, it is a monster second only to the Dragon King level.
Let’s talk about Animus, the king of Stella Kingdom...
Although he looked out of place, he was originally an elite dragon level existence.
Even with Sonya's human body, the Animus cannot use its full power, but it still has a 'shield' level strength.
As for Bradman, Jacob Lessio and Neinhardt, they were originally members of the 'Twelve Shields of the Saints', so they naturally possess 'shield' level strength.
It can be said that the strength of the above five people is completely in line with Makarov's positioning and standards for Fairy Tail Guild's S-class magister.
Makarov was just thinking about how he could make Kornuki and others pass the S-class magister assessment rules at the moment.
Therefore, Makarov played a trick. He first held a big competition to let the strongest member of the group who participated in the S-class magister assessment this year pass.
Then, when the competition was over, Makarov revealed the rules for the second round of this year's S-class magister examination: "If any member who failed in this year's S-class competition is unconvinced, they can choose to challenge. At the moment, In the guild, any active S-level magician who can defeat the current S-level magician will be allowed to pass this year's assessment."
In this case, let the strongest person among the five pass first...
Let the remaining four of the five people defeat Uru, Urrutia, Lacusas and Milaje, who are currently serving as examiners in the guild!
At this point, the achievement of all members passing the test has been completed.
Moreover, no one present would say anything, not even Kornuki, who was a thorn, would say: "When did the Animus, after using the soul dragon magic, even the host... A weak dragon who can't escape even with his body is worthy of being compared with me and passed this year's S-class magician examination held by the Fairy Tail Guild?" Such words!
Well, it can be said that Makarov has predicted everything.
“Simple indeed!”
As Makarov finished speaking, Animus and the others nodded gently, indicating that they had clearly understood the rules for this year's Fairy Tail Guild S-level magister assessment.
"Lucky, I'm going to trouble you next!"
"Please follow my requirements and make a number box for drawing lots and a number ball with numbers written on it. Please..."
Makarov said, and asked Lucky to use the wood modeling magic to make an opaque number box and wooden balls with Arabic numerals for him on the spot in front of many members of the Fairy Tail guild.
“Simple~”
Lucky smiled softly and completed Makarov's request with a wave of his hand.
"In that case..."
"You brats who are preparing to take part in this year's S-Class Magister Examination, all come here to line up and come to me to draw number plates."
After Makarov placed these small wooden balls with numbers written on them into the opaque wooden box made by Lucky, which only allowed one hand to reach in, he shouted to the candidates present, Come up and draw lots.
"I'll come first!"
First of all, the first person to rush to Makarov to draw lots was naturally the enthusiastic Natsu. He put his hand into the number box held by Makarov and fiddled with it for a while, and finally shouted: "It's decided. It’s you!”
Then in front of everyone present, the number ball with the number three written on it was drawn from the number box.
"Number three, Natsu."
Seeing this, Makarov muttered softly while taking the number ball from Natsu's hand.
"Number three, Natsu."
As Makarov finished speaking, Mirajane wrote Natsu's name on the blackboard in front of everyone, in the column with the number three.
"Next."
After Makarov confirmed that Mirajane had written Natsu's name, he immediately looked disgusted and waved his hand towards Natsu, indicating that Natsu should leave quickly and not to be an eyesore.
"I'll come."
The second person who came to draw the number was Gray.
"Come on, Master Gray!"
Juvia looked at Gray who walked up to Makarov to draw lots, feeling anxious.
"My number is number five."
"It seems that I can't face Natsu in the first round. It's a pity."
Gray looked at the number on the number ball in his hand and sighed.
"Next."
After Makarov wrote Gray's name under the number five on the blackboard, Makarov still called the next member expressionlessly to come to him and draw the number. He was like a ruthless calling machine.
"It's my turn..."
The third person who came was none other than Kana.
I saw that Kana didn't talk nonsense. She drew a numbered ball from the number box in front of Makarov and left without letting Makarov talk nonsense.
"Be the first one?!" "Not bad, die early and be reborn early."
But Kana came to the audience and murmured to herself.
After Kana, Mistergang, Bradman, Neinhardt, Jacob Lesio, and Kurnuki came over to draw numbers.
They are No. 7, No. 8, No. 4, No. 2 and No. 6.
So the final result of the battle is.
In the first game, No. 1 Kana faced off against No. 2 Jacob.
In the second game, No. 3 Natsu faced off against No. 4 Neinhardt.
In the third game, No. 5 Gray played against No. 6 Kurnuki.
In the fourth game, No. 7 Mystergang played against No. 8 Bradman.
The animus that did not draw a number card naturally had a bye.
"Hahaha..."
"It seems luck is still on my side."
Animus laughed and said happily.
"President, are you sure this is not a BUG?!"
In response, Mirajane and others, who were examiners, got behind Makarov. As long as they were not blind or deaf, they all knew that Makarov had tampered with the drawing.
Isn't this cheating a bit too obvious? !
"Be patient, this is our guild's number one sponsor."
"The so-called offending, you must not offend our God of Wealth, right?!"
In response, Makarov turned around, looked at Mirajane and the others, and said helplessly.
Yes, as long as you have money, you can skip the preliminaries even for the Fairy Tail Guild's S-class mage assessment. It can be said that the emotional value is directly given to you!
Just asking you whether the money spent is worth it? !
However, whether you can really pass the assessment still depends on your personal strength.
"Vulgar."
In this regard, Lacusus frowned. He felt that his grandfather had changed.
Makarov: "I'm sorry, you're not the one who wipes out the guild's demolition maniacs and dog gamblers every year?! People who don't manage a household have no idea how difficult it is to run a household!"
"Okay, Makarov, the third generation president of Fairy Tail, the Magister Guild, is here to announce that in the year X781 of the Fairy Tail Guild, the S-class magister assessment has officially begun!"
Makarov stood on the podium with his hands behind his back, wearing a golden coat with the 'Holy Ten' logo on it, and loudly announced with a serious face the beginning of the S-class magister examination.
"First of all, the first game, Kana versus Jacob."
Makarov announced the first game of the match.
The No. 1 Kana will fight against the No. 2 Jacob.
Well, the place where Kana and Jacob fought was naturally in the arena behind the Fairy Tail Guild.
Well, Makarov asked Lucky to build this arena, and he claimed that even if he leaves the arena, he loses.
Makarov still knows right from wrong. He knows that there must be some restrictions on the competition of these brats, otherwise these brats can destroy the entire town of Magnolia and the Kingdom of Fiore without hesitation.
Well...
For a time, this troubled Fairy Tail Mountain once again gathered a group of Fairy Tail mages who were not too concerned about the trouble. They were all looking forward to the fight between Kana and Jacob.
"I bet on Kana..."
"She is that Gildarts' daughter after all."
"I bet on Jacob..."
"How can the guards Ian found for Erza be inferior in strength?!"
Yes, everyone in Fairy Tail is looking forward to a quick victory between Kana and Jacob, so that they can make a lot of money.
"Front row, front row..."
“Selling popcorn, melon seeds, mineral water, and beer!”
This was said by Makarov. He will not only serve as the examiner for this S-class magician examination, but also as a logistics staff, providing everyone with various snacks that can relieve tension when watching the game. Of course There is a charge for these snacks.
"Sorry, uncle!"
"I know you are very strong, but I don't intend to give up just like that. After all, I have been preparing seriously for the guild's S-level magician assessment this year for more than a year..."
As soon as Kana appeared on the stage, she first apologized to Jack, and then raised her arm without any hesitation.
"Gather together! The river of light that guides the fairies!"
"Light up! To destroy the evil minions!"
"One of the three great magics of Fairy Tail...the radiance of the Fairy!"
Yes, Kana started with Fairy's Glory, one of Fairy Tail's three major magics.
"Hey, hey, are you kidding me?!"
"Kana, she used super magic when she came up?"
"With Kana's current magic power, using the fairy's brilliance, I'm afraid she can blow the entire mountain into ashes, right?!"
As Kana's body erupted with earth-shattering magic power, all the Fairy Tail magisters present who acted as spectators were shocked inwardly.
"Speaking of which, Ian just moved back from abroad a few days ago..."
By the way, Fairy Tail's back mountain has been blown up countless times.
The current Fairy Tail Mountain was brought back by Ian from abroad using gravity magic.
"Oh, the radiance of fairies?!"
"This is really dangerous magic."
"But this kind of magic is not suitable for you as a little girl to use~"
Jacob looked at Kana who had exploded with astonishing magic power. His eyes flashed with admiration, and then he lightly snapped his fingers at Kana.
"Pa~"
Just listen, a snap.
Kana's figure disappeared instantly.
"Kana disappeared?!"
"What happened?"
After Kana disappeared, everyone watching the match, including the magicians of the Fairy Tail Guild, including Makarov as the guild leader, all widened their eyes in confusion. They couldn't understand what Jacob had done? !
"Jacob is the most powerful assassin in history on the Western Continent of Alakidasia! He can use all the assassination techniques in the world..."
"And he controls an entire death space that belongs to him alone. In that space, Jacob is the only master and can control the life and death of everything in the space. The girl named Kana is now being controlled by Jacob Sent to this space!”
"In other words, no matter how powerful the magic that the girl used just now was, she lost the game from the moment she fell into Jacob's space."
At the moment when everyone was confused, Neinhard yawned slightly and said this.
"I see, I understand..."
Makarov looked at Neinhardt who was telling the truth and did not doubt that he was there. He announced the result of the game in public: "Because player Kana suddenly disappeared! She also has no ability to come back on her own. So Kana The contestant left the ring! Therefore, the winner of the first game is Jacob Lesio. ”
"Thank you~"
After Jacob received Makarov's verdict, he first bowed slightly towards Makarov, thanked Makarov for his fairness in the verdict, and gently snapped his fingers again.
"Pa~"
There was another soft sound...
Kana's figure suddenly appeared in front of everyone present.
It was as if Kana had never left the ring from the beginning.
"I lost?!"
Kana seemed dazed.
In fact, Kana knew from the beginning that there was a huge gap in strength between herself and Jacob, which is why Kana started using super magic!
But what Kana didn't expect was that she would be killed by Jacob? !
Kana: "Starting with super magic, can you kill me?"
Jacob: "Otherwise?!"
"Natsu..."
Seeing this, Gray called Natsu's name softly.
"I'm here."
Natsu frowned and looked serious.
"The strength of Erza's guards seems to be far beyond our imagination."
Gray said with a serious face.
"Yeah..."
"I'm already on fire."
Natsu said excitedly.
"The second game..."
"No. 3 Natsu will fight against No. 4 Neinhardt."
Just when Natsu felt his blood boiling, Makarov announced the start of the second match of the S-Class Mage Examination.
"I went first."
After Natsu finished speaking, he jumped onto the ring in a flying step.
"I didn't expect it would be my turn so soon."
Neinhardt sighed helplessly when he heard the sound.
"To be honest, I'm not very interested in fighting and killing."
"Even though my magic is dealing with dead people~"
"So, little pink-haired devil! Can you be smart, recognize the huge gap in strength between you and me, and then walk off the ring yourself and admit defeat?!"
Neinhardt first smoothed his long purple bangs, and then jumped onto the competition ring just like Natsu did. After looking at Natsu up and down, he spoke with a look of disgust and arrogance.
"Are you kidding me?"
When Natsu heard this, he roared furiously.
"Okay, okay!"
"I know, I know..."
Neinhardt looked at the frizzy Natsu and shrugged helplessly.
"Everyone, please allow me to apologize first and borrow the dead person in your memory."
Neinhardt glanced at Natsu first. After he discovered that there was no suitable candidate in Natsu's memory, he looked at Mirajane not far away. He nodded with satisfaction and snapped his fingers. .
"Boom!"
The next second, a huge demon that was hundreds of meters tall and as powerful as a mountain suddenly appeared in front of everyone.
"What is this?!"
For a moment, all the magicians in the Fairy Tail Guild were dumbfounded.
"Impossible! This is the Eighteen Demon Fighting Gods, but it is already dead..."
As for Mirajane, she even showed a look of disbelief.
"Everyone, nothing is impossible. In front of my magic, any dead things can come back to life to fight for me! In other words, death will only make me stronger, and I hate it the most. The most important thing is death..."
Neinhardt yawned and explained his magic softly.
First update, a 7,000-word chapter!
