The second floor of the Fairy Tail Guild is a place that only S-class magicians can go to. It is a place full of mystery and temptation for most ordinary members of Fairy Tail.
Legend has it that there are various S to SSS level tasks here. Each task can only be completed by the strongest magician. Every time you complete a task, you can gain enough rewards to transform into a lifetime and become a powerful person famous in the mainland.
Sorcerer.
And now, at the top of the mission panel on the second floor, a gold-plated mission with SSS is hanging in the most conspicuous position.
SSS mission: Declare the end of the world.
Mission situation: On the night of June 8, x1035, the moon in the sky turned blood-colored. The moment the blood moon appeared, it began to continuously devour the elemental power of the entire world. Starting with the appearance of the blood moon, three days later, in the endless mountains in the southeast of the mainland, a 100-meter-diameter
A 10,000-meter vortex of elements appeared and grew rapidly using the elemental power of the entire world as nourishment, expanding toward the entire world.
After investigation by all the kingdoms and the Magisters Guild in the entire continent, it is found that the 'Elemental Vortex' is still devouring the elemental power of the entire world at an incredible speed and continues to grow. It is expected that the 'Elemental Vortex' will be completely devoured in up to a year.
The whole world!
Once the elemental power of the entire world is swallowed up, the power of the magicians will come to an end. In all kingdoms, the magician guild will do its best to prevent its growth!!!
In addition, according to the observation of the Blue Pegasus of the Magisters Guild, there are unknown beings behind the 'Elemental Vortex', so they will be the common enemy of the entire continent.
For the sake of the world and the future of the magicians, we will begin our crusade against the elemental vortex in one week and eliminate the people behind the scenes!
Mission requirements: All kingdoms and magician guilds in the entire continent must participate in the war together. During this period, all kingdoms and magician guilds are not allowed to fight. This is a battle to save the world!
If any guild magician or kingdom escapes or fights among themselves during this period, the other kingdoms and magician guilds will be killed without mercy!
"Erza, have you seen this mission?"
Laxus sat on the chair and looked at Erza in front of him solemnly. This mission was a mission jointly issued by all the kingdoms and the Magisters Guild in the mainland two days ago.
This mission is completely different from the usual missions. All members of the Kingdom and the Magisters Guild will participate. It can be said that this mission brings together all the combat power of the entire world.
This is a battle that must be won, because once it fails, it means that the entire world will lose the ability to resist, and can only watch the 'Elemental Vortex' continue to grow until it swallows the entire world!
"Um!"
Erza also looked at Laxus with a solemn expression. Now she finally understood why Laxus showed that expression before. As a person who had personally experienced what happened before, she knew much more than the guilds and kingdoms on the mainland.
No matter it is the real leader of this incident or their goal, as well as the power that is so powerful that it makes people despair.
To be honest, Erza didn't think that gathering all the power of the entire continent would be able to defeat Lu Qiming and the others. You must know that the Fairy Tail Guild is recognized as the strongest guild in the continent.
Most of the strongest magicians in the entire continent have gathered together, but now the first-generation president Mabis, vice-president Zera and 'Hope' Lu Qiming have become the biggest enemies, and in the war with the second generation,
It took the death of the third president, Gildas and others to successfully escape.
"Erza, what should I do?"
Laxus looked at the silent Erza and asked with unprecedented confusion in his eyes. As the current president of the Fairy Tail Guild, he also fell into confusion when faced with this situation.
On one side is the safety of the entire world, but on the other side is his cherished companion. He neither wants the world to be destroyed, nor does he want his companion to die in front of him again and again, but he is powerless.
Laxus never wanted to experience the feeling he had before, the feeling of knowing that his family would die, but he could only give up and run away!
"Laxus, do you still need to ask about this kind of thing?"
Erza stood up and walked behind Laxus, took off the mission card hanging at the top, and looked at the mission information on it, her eyes becoming firmer little by little, and the aura she exuded became more and more powerful.
"Of course we have to go, and we not only have to complete this mission, but also bring our family back. This is what we should do!"
With that said, Erza walked to the fence on the second floor with the task list in her hand and looked at the noisy guild members below. This time she not only wanted to bring back Lu Qiming and the others, but also protect her family!
She never wants to lose her family again!
"Yes! I understand, this time we will definitely bring back Qiming and the others, and we must protect everyone!"
Laxus stood up as he spoke. The confusion on his face had completely disappeared. He walked to Erza and looked at the Fairy Tail members below. He was now the president of Fairy Tail, how could he be confused!
He is the man who will stand at the front and guide the direction of everyone in the guild, bring hope to everyone, and protect them!
"Erza, I have decided that this mission will only allow S-class magician members in the guild to participate. The remaining guild members will stay in the guild, waiting for our return!"
"that is it!"
Erza turned her head and looked at the current Laxus and smiled. This was the president he was familiar with, the man who had always brought despair to the enemy like thunder, and brought warmth and hope to his family!
"However, the mission requires all guild members to participate, and those people will definitely have opinions when the time comes."
After thinking about it, Erza lowered her head and looked at the requirements on the mission and said, she knew that as Fairy Tail, the strongest magician's guild in the mainland, other kingdoms and guilds would definitely pay attention to all the member information.
By then they will definitely find that many Fairy Tail members did not participate in the mission.
"Hmph! So what if you have an opinion? We are Fairy Tail!"
A domineering smile appeared on Laxus's face. He didn't care what the guilds and kingdoms thought. You must know that most of the strongest combatants in this mission were their Fairy Tail members.
If you have any opinions, please defeat yourself first. If you still force yourself if you don’t have the strength, then Laxus doesn’t mind giving them a ride in advance!
Even though he usually looks like a gentle, kind, and reliable guild leader, but that is only for guild members. When facing enemies, he is Laxus, the Thunder Dragon Slayer Mage!
"Should I say that you are truly worthy of being the president?"
Erza looked at Laxus and smiled, but in fact her thoughts were exactly the same as Laxus's. Anyway, she would never let guild members who were not strong enough to participate in this mission.
If anyone has any objections, just ask her about her fists and swords. It doesn’t matter who she is!
"bump!!!"
At this moment, the guild door was suddenly kicked open, and a figure rushed in shouting. When he saw Laxus and Erza standing on the second floor of the guild, he jumped directly from below.
"Laxus, are the second and third presidents really dead?"
Natsu grabbed Laxes' clothes tightly and stared at him with his eyes full of regret and anger. He just heard that Makarov and the others chose to
Sacrifice yourself.
When he thought that he had no idea about this, that he was seriously injured by Lu Qiming before that, and then sent away by Wendy, without any effect at all, Naz's heart was filled with regret and remorse.
"Um!"
Laxus looked at the energetic Natsu in front of him and breathed a sigh of relief. At least now he seemed to have almost recovered from his injuries. Then he told Natsu what happened that day word for word, and also told Erza about the mission in Erza's hands.
The slip was handed to Natsu.
"Bastard Qiming!"
After Natsu confirmed that Makarov and the others were really dead, the anger in his eyes could no longer be suppressed, and he roared full of rage, but in his heart he could never feel any hatred for Lu Qiming, only anger.
Angry, why did he become like this, even killing his most important family members.
"Laxus, I must participate in this mission. When the time comes, I will give Uncle Qiming a good punch!"
Naz looked at the SSS mission in his hand and said firmly that he would definitely bring Lu Qiming and the others back to this home that belonged to them, but before that he would definitely give Lu Qiming a good beating!
"Well, I'll leave it to you then. What about Lucy and the others?"
Erza smiled and nodded. She had absolute trust in her companions. Since Natsu said so, he would definitely do it. Then Erza looked at the guild door, but did not see other members.
asked in confusion.
"Lucy and the others are still recovering from their injuries, and Wendy is taking care of them."
Natsu replied and then lowered his head and continued to look at the task list. He had heard what happened to Makarov and the others and ran over directly regardless of Wendy's stop. As for Lucy and the others, they were forced to the hospital bed by Wendy.
To recuperate, they don't have the physique of a dragon slayer like Natsu + the strongest demon.
"I'm going to see them, and Natsu, get ready, we'll be going back there again soon to bring our families back!"
After saying that, Erza jumped directly from the second floor, said hello to the guild members around her, and then walked towards the Fairy Medical Center next door. As soon as she reached the door, Erza heard Lucy's star spirit inside.
That voice full of helplessness.
"I said Lucy, can you not rush in alone every time we fight? Are you the Celestial Spirit Mage or are we the Celestial Spirit Mage?"
Opening the door, Erza saw several zodiac stars next to Lucy's bed taking care of Lucy who was lying on the bed with helpless expressions. Leo, the boss of the stars, was educating everyone.
Lucy looked impatient, wondering what a real Celestial Mage should do.
"Hey! Leo, please stop talking. You're such a weakling that you'll be killed by the enemy before you can even charge forward. Why don't you cheer for me from behind? And if it doesn't work, you can just imitate Baruch and be a peacekeeper."
Just let the maid take care of me."
Lucy, who was obviously lying on the hospital bed and looked a little pale, looked at the handsome Leo in front of her with disgust. Looking at the thin and frail body, Lucy doubted that she could beat him with one punch.
Cried for a long time.
"I, you, she and I are Leo, Leo, not some thin star spirit, and it is absolutely impossible to be a maid! It is impossible in this life!"
Leo firmly rejected Lucy's idea, his expression full of helplessness. It was clear that the Celestial Spirit Mage who summoned them this time was more powerful than the countless Celestial Spirit Mage in the past, and he also cherished them.
Treat them as family.
To be honest, both Leo and other Celestial Spirits like the current Celestial Spirit Mage Lucy.
But the only thing that makes Leo feel desperate is that he has never participated in a battle since becoming Lucy's Celestial Spirit. Even every time he fought, he and other Celestial Spirits would stand behind and look at Lucy, who was a Celestial Spirit Mage.
Carrying a huge sword the size of a door panel, he charged forward.
They will never be allowed to go up. They who look weak should stay behind, and dangerous things like fighting should be left to me as a Celestial Spirit Mage.
Even for this kind of thing, neither Leo nor the other star spirits of the twelve zodiac signs can make mistakes, because as star spirits, they really can't defeat Lucy without gathering the twelve star spirits to launch the final trick.
Even if they gather all the stars and launch the final trick, to be honest, Leo and the others don't have much confidence in defeating the current Lucy.
"Brother Leo, please stop struggling."
At this time, Aries, the star spirit of Aries, wore a maid uniform and walked up to Leo and patted him on the shoulder, then turned her head and looked at Lucy's eight-pack belly shining in the sun on the hospital bed.
Ji shook his head.
Now they have given up struggling. She and Baruge have become maids dedicated to taking care of Lucy, Aquarius Akuya has gone traveling with her husband Kesha, a Cancer, and the rest are doing other things.
, but it definitely has nothing to do with fighting.
Leo, the only one left, was still struggling, but to no avail. Lucy would never let him participate in every battle. The reason was that he couldn't even catch his own punch, and it was too dangerous to participate in the battle.
"Alyes is right, so Leo you don't want to wear a maid uniform, so I prepared this suit specially for you. The most perfect butler uniform, made by the top master, completely suits Leo's figure and temperament.
, but also to satisfy your unwillingness to become a maid, how about I treat you well!?"
At this moment, Lucy, who was lying on the bed, suddenly sat up and took out a set of black butler uniforms from under the pillow with excitement on her face and placed it in front of Leo. This was what she had specially prepared for Leo before going to the Endless Mountains.
Made to order in Europe.
Lucy has long wanted to let Leo try it on. As for the battle uniform, Lucy has never thought about such a thing from the beginning to the end. As a star spirit wizard, she is not her own family.
I don’t have the habit of letting my family members who are not strong enough fight the enemy while I watch.
But Lucy also saw Leo's hard work and didn't want to let him down, so she wanted Leo to find something to do and give up dangerous things like fighting.
After all, fighting is enough for her. As family members, Leo and the others stay in a safe place. This is also the reason why she has been working hard to exercise and hone her sword skills!
"Miss, you can't sit up right now. You are still recovering from your injuries, so lie down obediently. Also, brother Leo, just accept the wishes of the eldest lady!"
At this time, a pair of small hands pressed on Lucy's shoulders, forcing her to the hospital bed. Then Baluge turned her head and looked at Leo with Sanwu's little face without any expression.
"You are still the same as before. It seems that you are recovering well Lucy, so I feel relieved. Besides, Leo, this suit really suits you!"
Erza walked to Lucy's hospital bed with a smile on her face and looked at Lucy above and Leo Leo, who was standing there blankly with a butler's uniform next to him, a look of despair on his face. Erza had seen this scene before and didn't know.
How many times.
By the way, Erza also agrees with Lucy's idea. After all, in Erza's view, these stars are also part of Fairy Tail, and she doesn't want Leo and the others to get hurt.
"Bargo Erza, why do you even say that? What I said is obviously right. As the Star Spirits, we have always fought to protect the Star Spirit Mage!"
Leo pointed at Erza and Baloo in front of him and said angrily, their star spirits have been protecting the star spirit wizards for countless years, and he will definitely prove that he is right. For this reason, Leo feels that in the future
Double the training!
He must become a powerful star spirit who can protect Lucy and let her stay at his back!
Then, with a determined look on his face, Leo turned around and walked out of the Fairy Medical Center towards the place where Fairy Tail members usually train. However, before leaving, he took away the butler's uniform that Lucy had prepared for him.
"Lucy, won't you stop him?"
Erza glanced at Leo's back as he walked out, lowered his head and looked at the silent Lucy on the hospital bed and asked, Erza believed that Lucy would not be unaware of what Leo had been training.
"Why should I stop him? And I have no reason to stop him. I know that Leo is actually doing this for me. He wants to fight with me and become my helper, instead of being protected by me all the time.
This is his own decision and I should support him instead of stopping him!"
Lucy raised her head and looked at Leo's retreating back and smiled softly. In fact, she always rushed to the front in every battle to protect her family members. At the same time, Lucy also knew that not every star spirit
Everyone wants to be protected by their own Celestial Magicians, and they also want to protect themselves.
Especially for this battle, Lucy didn't even summon a single star spirit for safety. When she summoned them again and saw herself seriously injured, Leo must have felt guilty and guilty at that time.
She blames herself as a Celestial Spirit for not protecting her Celestial Spirit Mage Lucy.
Therefore, whether it is for Leo's self-esteem or his desire to protect himself, Lucy will not stop Leo from training himself and becoming stronger, and there will definitely be a battle next, and Lucy doesn't know that she
Is there any chance of coming back alive?
Once he dies, Leo is strong enough to protect his other family members.
Of course, Lucy still firmly opposed Leo's participation in the battle. She really wanted to participate unless he surpassed her in strength, but was such a thing possible?
She is undergoing hellish training every day, coupled with the perfect foundation she has laid since childhood, her strength is constantly improving every day, so Lucy is absolutely sure that as long as she is alive, Leo will not be able to participate in the battle!
Of course, Lucy would never tell Leo this kind of thing. She also wanted to see Leo wearing the deacon uniform she had carefully prepared for him, standing in front of the bed in the early morning sunshine and saying to her gently, "
Madam, it's morning, it's time to get up.'
"hey-hey!"
Thinking of this scene, Lucy couldn't help but burst into laughter. Baruge and Alias beside her were used to looking at Lucy who had convulsions every day, and took care of themselves.
"Alright, Lucy should hurry up and recover from her injuries. We will successfully bring back Brother Qiming and the first generation president in the near future!"
Erza looked at Lucy who was having convulsions every day and shook her head helplessly. Then with a serious face, she told Lucy in front of her all the things she had agreed with Laxus before. Gray and Rebby were in the hospital bed next to them.
They also turned their heads and looked over.
"knew!"
After Erza finished speaking, both Lucy and the other people beside them nodded, with extremely determined expressions on their faces. This time they would not fail again, and they must bring Lu Qiming and the others back!
For this reason, they will try their best to drag Lu Qiming and the others back to Fairy Tail even if their hands and feet are smashed and only their mouths remain!
At the same time, in the Fairy Tail guild hall, Laxus and Natsu stood on the second floor looking at the Fairy Tail members below. After looking at each other, Natsu threw down the task list in his hand.
The slowly falling task list attracted the attention of all Fairy Tail members below, and they clearly saw the task status and requirements above.
"I believe you have also seen that mission, which requires all kingdom and guild members to participate, but as the fourth generation president of Fairy Tail, I have decided that only S-class magicians in the guild can participate in this mission, and the other members will stay behind
In the guild!”
Laxus looked at the Fairy Tail members below who fell silent after he finished speaking. He knew that his decision would definitely make most of the members below who did not meet the requirements feel aggrieved.
Obviously this mission was to solve the crisis in the entire world and bring back their families, but they could only stay in the guild, waiting for news.
"Laxus, no! Fourth President, we understand, and we agree with your decision!"
At this time, a member of Fairy Tail clenched his hands and raised his head with his whole body closed and looked at Laxus above. After saying this, he turned around and walked towards the outside of the guild in silence.
He wants to train, become stronger, and become a man enough to protect his family. He will never watch his family fight like this again, but he can only watch, with no way to do anything about it.
And he knew that even if he forced himself to go with Laxus and the others, he would only drag them down, and even distract Laxus and the others when they encountered danger.
He must not become the kind of person who drags down his companions and family!
"President, you must come back alive. Even if you can't bring back Qiming and the first generation, you must come back alive. Only alive can there be hope!"
With tears in her eyes, Luolis looked at Laxus who was smiling above her, then bit her lip hard and turned around to follow the companion who left before.
She wants to become stronger! Become stronger, and become a being who can protect her family like Laxus and the others!
Behind Luo Lisi, except for the S-class mage, all the other guild members turned and left, heading towards the Fairy Tail Guild's training ground outside Magnolia.
"Don't worry, we will definitely come back alive and bring our families back!"
Laxus murmured as he looked at the guild members leaving, and then walked down to the second floor of the guild with Natsu, and began to discuss the specifics of this mission with the other Fairy Tail members!
After Laxus discussed it with everyone, each Fairy Tail member left the guild with firm expressions. They also wanted to train and become stronger!
In the next few days, except for necessary circumstances, all Fairy Tail members almost stayed at the training ground, conducting various devilish trainings, improving their strength in the last time before the war.
