After Evan and Erza were brought home by Irene...
"That..." Evan looked at Irene and planned to say something.
"Anyway, you've come back safely! Let's eat first!" Irene didn't blame Evan for arbitrarily accepting the task of crusade against Deliora. She just stroked Evan's little head lightly and spoke lovingly.
"Okay!" Evan felt Irene's deep maternal love, and her heart warmed up.
"Master Evan, long time no see~" At the same time, Ilya, Ian, and Eden, who suddenly appeared from the shadows, came to Evan and greeted him.
"Anyway, let's eat together!" In this regard, Evan smiled lightly.
As for Evan's situation along the way, in fact, the reason why Irene didn't ask a single question was because she had watched the whole live broadcast through Eden's eyes...
That's much better than Evan's storytelling...
In fact, during the time when Evan and Erza were constantly working hard, Irene didn't want to be idle. She would look at the job status of Evan and Erza from time to time, and at the same time check whether they were in danger.
However, the reason why Irene never mentioned to Evan and Erza what she did to them is probably because the old mother loves her cubs, okay?!
On the other side, in the Fairy Tail guild...
Gray is worrying about one thing, that is, making friends of the same age...
Perhaps it was because the color of his hair was rather eye-catching, Gray, like Erza who had just joined the guild at that time, went directly to Laxus who was sitting alone in a corner in a daze.
Of course, according to what Laxus said, the reason why he sat alone in the corner with his chin resting was not because he was in a daze, but because he was meditating, reviewing and summarizing the battle he had experienced.
"My name is Gray Fullbuster! What's your name, please? Can we be friends?" Gray looked at Laxus and asked in a very friendly manner.
"..."
Laxus in the corner glanced at Gray casually after hearing the words, but did not speak.
"Um..."
Gray was a little strange. He didn't know if there was something wrong with his introduction.
"Gray, you are still too immature! Learn, the real self-introduction should be like this~" Lyon looked at Gray who failed to strike up a conversation with Laxus, and immediately walked in front of Laxus, like a Like an elegant gentleman, he introduced to Laxus: "Hello, handsome little brother, I am Lyon Vastia from the north, I don't know your name? Can you be our second brother? What about our friends?!"
"..." After Laxus looked Lyon up and down, a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes, but his mouth remained silent.
"Um..."
Looking at the scene in front of them, Lyon and Gray immediately fell silent.
"Is this guy deaf?!" Gray hesitated for a moment, looked at Lyon curiously and asked.
"Yes, there's such a possibility!" Lyon nodded upon hearing that. If Laxus is deaf, then it can fully explain why Laxus has been ignoring the two of them.
"Tsk~ two idiots..." At the moment when Gray and Lyon were looking at Laxus and having a heated discussion, Laxus, who looked impatient, stood up from his seat. He looked Gray and Lyon up and down, and then showed a trace of disdainful smile, he deliberately said when passing Gray and Lyon.
"Gh..."
Gray and Lyon immediately gritted their teeth at Laxus' words.
"Hold, Gray! We can't cause trouble as soon as we enter the guild!" Lyon pressed Gray's shoulder, there was a trace of coldness in his eyes.
"You too, Lyon, put away your modeling magic..." Gray looked at Lyon, who was releasing modeling magic with one hand and was about to sneak attack Laxus, but he was still persuading him not to do it, and immediately stopped him.
"Ah! Sorry, I almost couldn't help it, I'm about to make a move!" After Lyon heard Gray's words, he immediately put away the magic he was about to release.
"Patience! Patience!"
The brothers of Gray and Lyon suppressed each other in this way. Watching Laxus' advancing back, they continued to endure, fearing that if they couldn't help it, they would launch their own magic on Laxus.
"Ha ha... Laxus has always been like this. He didn't mean to target you or anything like that. Don't worry about it!" Just as Gray and Lyon were gnashing their teeth while staring at Laxus' back, a little girl with long brown hair and wearing a long white dress walked up to the two of them, smiling and preaching.
"Is that guy called Laxus? Very good, I'll remember it!" Gray and Lyon exchanged glances, and the two of them wrote down Laxus's name.
"You two are the ones who returned to the guild with the guild master, Gildarts, and Evan, right?!"
"My name is Cana, Cana Alberona, pleased to meet you~" As Cana said, she stretched out her little hand towards Gray and Lyon.
"My name is Gray Fullbuster!"
"Lyon Vastia!"
After shaking hands with Cana, Gray and Lyon introduced themselves respectively.
"That Cana, are you familiar with the guild?" After Gray and Cana introduced each other, they immediately started chatting with each other.
After hearing Gray's words, Cana was taken aback for a moment, then asked with a smile. "Um... It's still familiar! After all, I have joined Fairy Tail for more than two years, and it will be the three years mark soon... I can barely be regarded as a veteran of the guild... What's wrong?! Do you have any questions? You can ask me, as long as I know, I will tell you..."
"Then do you know who is the strongest person in the guild?"
After hearing what Cana said, Gray looked eager to try. Although Gray is young and lacking in strength, it doesn't mean that he is cowardly. If he wants to do it, he will be the strongest.
"Who is the strongest in the guild?!"
Cana heard the words, looked up and down the age of Gray and Lyon, and thought that the kid at this age is indeed the kind of age who talks about being the strongest all day long.
After thinking for a while, Cana spoke to Gray and Lyon. "The word strongest has too many meanings! If you are talking about who has the greatest power in this guild? Then it must be Guild Master Makarov! The power of the guild master is above all other members, so it should be about right that the guild master is the strongest one!"
"But when it comes to strength, it's very interesting. Whether it's Gildarts or Evan, they are all incredible monsters! Possessing the strength to destroy the world..."
"Oh!" Gray and Lyon listened to Cana's words very seriously, nodding their heads from time to time.
However, when Gray heard Cana talking about Gildarts and Evan, he felt a little bit of doubt in his heart, so he asked: "So who is the strongest one, Gildarts or Evan?"
"Um... That's a problem! Actually, it's hard for me to say. The two fought in the back mountain of the guild before, but they were stopped by the guild master in the end. Unfortunately, the battle between the two did not result in a winner." Cana smiled wryly and shook her head. The topic of who is stronger, Gildarts or Evan, is a sensitive topic, so it's hard for her to say.
In fact, as far as the specific strength of Evan and Gildarts is concerned, probably in the entire guild, only the two of them know about it, right?
"If you really want to ask who is the strongest person between Evan and Gildarts, you might as well ask them themselves~" Cana continued: "But besides Gildarts and Evan, the strength of Erza and Laxus should not be underestimated too!"
"Laxus?! Isn't that the blond fart guy just now?" When Gray heard the name Laxus, he remembered the blond boy with a stinking face and extreme arrogance just now.
"Yes! Don't look at Laxus like that all day long~ Laxus Dreyar is our Guild Master Makarov Dreyar's grandson! He and Erza nearly wiped out the entire Dark Guild the other day, especially since the guild master of the Dark Guild is still an S-class criminal who has offered a reward from the Magic Council... And I heard that Erza and Laxus defeated the S-class bounty criminal with just one blow! By the way, Erza Belserion is also Evan Belserion's sister..." Cana introduced Erza and Laxus to Gray and Lyon.
Hearing this, Gray put away his previous contempt for Laxus, but was eager to try it out. He wanted to see the gap in strength between himself and Laxus. "So that blond boy is so powerful? There seems a competition with him!"
"Erza..." Lyon muttered Erza's name softly. For a while, Brother Gray and Lyon had their own goals.
Although Gray and Lyon knew that there was still a big gap between them and the real powerhouses in the guild!
But if they were the same age, Gray and Lyon were still very confident. After all, they were Ur's disciples, so the two brothers were not intimidated by the backgrounds of Laxus and Erza! Instead, they were eager to try!
As for Evan Belserion... In the eyes of Lyon and Gray, Evan is no longer his peers!
In the eyes of Lyon and Gray, Evan is a person of the same generation as their teacher Ur, and they haven't thought about surpassing Evan at all for the time being, at least not yet.
However, after the two set up their small goals, they still don't know who the strongest mage in the Fairy Tail guild is, which makes them quite distressed...
