Fairy Tail: I want to summon Baron Nash

"Laxus?" Mira stood in front of Rhodes and raised an arm to block him.

"Rhodes is a companion who joined the guild just yesterday. He was just practicing magic."

"Magic? That? Stop making me laugh!" Lagerthas chuckled, "What use can that pitifully weak magic power do?"

Worm was trembling with fear, and Rhodes frowned. This was the person with the worst attitude he had ever seen in the guild.

Even Ms. Porlyusica, who claimed to hate humans, had to be very attentive when caring for the wounded.

And the person in front of me looks like she really hates him...

No, it's not that I hate him, it feels more like contempt. He seems to exude a sense of superiority.

Rhodes was new here and didn't want to cause trouble: "I apologize if I disturbed you just now."

"As expected, not only the magic power, but also the character is pitifully weak... I really don't know what the old man's point is in taking in such a guy."

Laxus looked down, and this time he was no longer talking to Rhodes, nor just to Mira.

"There are enough weaklings in Fairy Tail, why are these guys qualified to be my companions? Huh?"

Such words angered many people in the tavern, especially Natsu and Gray.

The two people who stayed calmly under Erza's suppression slapped the table and stood up: "What did you say?"

The sound of the bottom of a wine glass hitting the table was heard on other tables, and everyone stared at the blond young man upstairs with dissatisfaction:

"That guy Laxus is still like this!"

Erza stopped chatting with her friends and said with a cold face: "No matter what, it is too much to say such things, Laxus."

Lagertha's eyes met Erza's, with a tense look on his face: "Oh? Erza, you are going to do this for these losers..."

"That's enough!" Makarov didn't know when he sobered up. He took out a task list and said,

"Lagersus, there is a commission naming you here. Go and deal with it first."

"..." Laxus looked at Makarov, who didn't even look up at him.

He snorted softly, went downstairs, picked up the task list, and turned to leave: "Boring."

Everyone watched Laxus leave, more or less dissatisfied with him.

Natsu had an angry look on his face, as if he wanted to rush forward and fight at any moment, but Gray put his arm around his neck and stopped him firmly.

In the corner of the tavern, two men and a woman stood up silently and followed Laxus' footsteps.

The atmosphere in the tavern cooled down as a few people left. It took a while for everyone to sit down again, and gradually there was talk.

"Sorry for causing trouble to everyone."

Rhodes felt that there might be something wrong with Laxus, but today's conflict was caused by him. It would be better to go to the yard to practice next time.

"It has nothing to do with you, that guy has always been like this." Lucky curled her lips and said, "If he wasn't the grandson of the president, he would have been kicked out long ago..."

"Raqi!" Mira stopped her from continuing. The president must have felt more uncomfortable than anyone else when Laxus became like this.

"Is he the grandson of the president?" Rhodes compared the tall and straight Laxus with the short and lean president.

I can't tell.

"Yes, he is my grandson, but..." Makarov looked in the direction of the guild gate,

"I'm sorry. It's my responsibility for Laxus to become like this. Don't worry about what he said."

"No, no, no, you don't have to apologize..." Rhodes could almost guess what was going on.

According to the routine of the general story, this child was probably told that he was worthy of being the grandson of the president since he was a child, and then he developed a rebellious mentality.

It didn't matter for a short time, but after a long time, I started to want to be recognized for my 'own' abilities, rather than as the 'grandson of the president'.

Konohamaru on the set next door seemed to be acting like this.

The difference with Lagerthas is that the rebellion lasted a little longer and seemed to go a little awry.

Rhodes recalled it, but he really couldn't remember anything related to Laxus.

But since Tatsuya said it was a happy reunion, then this kid can probably correct himself...

The guild gradually returned to its usual bustle.

——

The sun is setting and night is falling.

The lights have been lit in the guild, and there are only a few guests left in the tavern still drinking and chatting.

Rhodes was ready to divide the work with Lucky and start sweeping the floor.

"Let me come downstairs alone today." Lucky said apologetically, "Because I came so late in the morning."

Rhodes said: "Then I'll go upstairs."

Lucky stopped her and said, "No, I have to leave it to Sister Mira to clean up the upstairs."

"Ah?" Rhodes was puzzled, "I'll do the same, Mira is also having a hard time today."

"No, it just can't be done," Lucky said. "The guild has regulations. Except for a few approved people, no one else is allowed to go to the second floor."

"……Why?"

Why is this like a martial arts novel, with a gang-forbidden area?

"Because there is a special bulletin board on the second floor, which contains extremely difficult S-level tasks." Lucky explained,

"Although the reward is considerable, if you are not careful, you will lose your life. Therefore, only S-class magicians are allowed to accept tasks on the second floor."

S-class magicians are easy to understand, and Rhodes guessed that they are probably the strongest people in the guild.

He asked: "That doesn't mean it's forbidden to go upstairs, right?"

Lucky said helplessly: "Because there are too many daredevils in the guild."

"That's true." Rhodes thought about the appearance of the guild members and immediately understood this rule.

For example, Natsu is so reckless and he is the main character, so he might secretly go on an S-class mission one day.

This rule may have been made just for him.

No wonder only Mira, the most steady among the waiters, is allowed to go up.

"By the way, how many S-class magicians are there in the guild? Who is the most powerful?"

"Hmm..." Lucky thought for a while, "Not to mention the guild president, the strongest one is probably the uncle, but he went out on a mission and hasn't returned to the guild for two years."

"Two years? What mission takes so long?" Rhodes asked in surprise and worry, "He won't encounter anything dangerous..."

"No, no..." Lucky immediately waved her hand in denial, "That Mr. Gildarts is as strong as a monster. Although I don't know what the mission is, he is the only one who will never get into trouble."

It seems that the uncle is quite trusted by Lucky, so Rhodes no longer worries about it: "What about him?"

"Besides him, there are S-classes, including Laxus, Mistgun, Erza, and..."

Lucky changed her words, "No, there are only three of them now. As for which one is the strongest, I don't know."

"You have already met Laxus and Erza. As for Mist Gang... you probably won't be able to see them. It seems that only the president of the entire guild knows his true identity."

Another mysterious person, Rhodes silently wrote down the name of Mystergang.

The most troublesome one is Laxus.

Rhodes was still thinking about when he could help the president teach his ignorant grandson a lesson so that he wouldn't always have his nostrils in the air.

But think about my current summoning magic - Poro, Canyon Swift Crab.

It seems that it cannot be completed in a short time.
