In the evening,
Lucy, who was reluctant to go home, was helping Mira clean up the dishes. She remembered the scene in the morning and couldn't help but ask Mira suspiciously.
"Mira-chan, what the president just said, you can't go to the second floor... What does that mean?"
When Mira heard Lucy's question, she stopped what she was doing and said to Lucy with a smile:"Well, it's too early for you, but I can tell you in advance."
"Do you remember Makao's mission?"Mira did not explain it directly, but asked Lucy a small question first.
"Makao... Is it the mission to conquer Balkan?" Lucy recalled and asked Mira.
"Yes, what do you think of that mission?"
"Looking back now, it was quite dangerous, if Natsu hadn't saved Makao at that time... But does this have anything to do with the mission on the second floor?"
"Makao's mission is on the first floor, and the mission on the second floor is a hundred times more difficult than the mission on the first floor."Miraje smiled and pointed to the upper floor.
"A hundred times?! Doesn't that mean that we have to kill thousands of Balkans?"Lucy was shocked.
"If you only deal with a few thousand, it is still simple, and it is not a hundred times more powerful. To be considered a hundred times more powerful, it would have to be ten times more powerful than a few thousand."
Mila's words shocked Lucy so much that she was speechless. She didn't expect that the mission on the second floor would be so dangerous.
"Therefore, the tasks on the second floor are all S-level tasks. If you misjudge a detail, the whole army will be wiped out. Therefore, these tasks must be approved by the president."
"There are only a few people in our guild who are approved by the president, including Laxus, Raphael, Erza and Mistgun, so this is why the president does not allow Natsu to go to the second floor. s reason."
Then Mira came closer to Lucy, smiled at Lucy and asked:"You must not worry about the commission above. Although the reward for the task is very high, it is easy to lose your life."
Lucy was so frightened that she nodded repeatedly.
Early the next morning, Mira hurriedly ran down the stairs on the second floor, shouting anxiously as she ran.
"Oh no, President, there is one power of attorney missing on the second floor!"
"puff!"
Guild President Makarov, who was drinking, immediately spit out the wine in his mouth, and other people in the guild also turned to look at Mira in surprise.
Raphael drank milk quietly. I remember this plot. In order to prove himself, Natsu asked Happy to steal a commission on the second floor.
This plot is nothing, but the next ghost incident is the real priority, Raphael's. He looked at the milk in the cup with solemn eyes. It seemed that he would be sitting in the guild all the time recently, so that the ghosts would never come back.
"This... what idiot would take that kind of thing away!"
"That is, a mission that is so dangerous and can only be solved by an S-class magician. Who would be stupid enough to secretly take it away and complete it?"
After the brief surprise, people in the guild began to talk about it.
"I saw a cat with wings sneaking it away last night~"
Laxus said calmly, holding his hands, sitting on the second floor leisurely drinking wine and smoking a cigar.
"A cat with wings?!"
"Hubby?!"
"Doesn't that mean Natsu and Lucy are involved too?!"
"These idiots! They've made a killing!"
Everyone was shocked, and then they started to worry. After all, S-level missions can really kill people.
"This is a serious violation of the rules. They will be kicked out of the guild when they come back, right, old man! Laxus squinted at Makarov and let out a few mocking chuckles,"But I hope they can come back. After all, with their three-legged cat skills...hehehe"
"Laxus, you knew why you didn't stop them?!"Mira stared at Laxus seriously, her eyes showing a terrifying light.
"Your expression scares me. Besides, how do I know it's not a stray cat that just came up and took away something it thought was food?"
Laxus looked at Mirajane with contempt and arrogance as he continued to mock them.
""Laxus!"
Raphael's voice came from behind Laxus. Laxus was startled. In an instant, he felt an irresistible force pressing his head and punching through from the second floor to the first floor.
"I don't care what you want to do, and I don't care who you want to provoke, but you shouldn't put your friends in danger!"
Raphael said angrily to Laxus.
"Raphael!!!" Laxus felt extremely ashamed that he was being pressed on the head in front of a group of people he thought were weak. He instantly became furious, shouting Raphael's name and charging towards him like lightning!
"Since the old man can't control you, I will teach you a lesson in my own way!" Raphael punched him hard, and everyone in the guild seemed to see a fist that covered the sky and the sun, which kept growing in front of them.
"Bang!"
With a loud bang, Laxus was knocked unconscious by Raphael.
"Don't worry, he's fine. I just knocked him out and he'll wake up after a while."Raphael looked at Makarov's concerned eyes, clapped his hands angrily and said
"ε=(´ο｀*)))Alas." Makarov shook his head, sighed helplessly, turned to look at Mira and asked,"Have you found out which order sheet is missing?"
"It's the cursed island - Karna Island!"
"What? That Devil's Island?" Makarov shouted in surprise, and then said to Raphael anxiously,"Raphael, go and bring them back to me!"
Raphael was stunned. Why did he have something to do here? But when he turned around and saw Laxus who was knocked down by him and Erza who was not in the guild for the time being, he covered his head helplessly. It seemed that he was the only one who was suitable.
"All right, then in that case I'll take this mission, Natsu and the others will be in the same team with me, let's go explore the way first, is that ok, President?" Seeing Makarov nodded in agreement, he turned to Gray and said,"Let's go, you can't be without this mission, there will be something you are interested in over there."
Gray was puzzled when he heard what Raphael said, but he still agreed. After all, he actually wanted to see how terrible the S-level mission was.
Halfway through the walk, Raphael remembered something, turned to Makarov and said,"By the way, President, if Erza comes back, remember to tell Erza not to take any missions in the near future. Something big may happen. Wait until I come back to continue taking missions."
Makarov looked up at Raphael:"What did you find?"
"No, this is just my intuition. I hope it won't happen. But it's okay if Erza doesn't come back. We still have Mira...."
Raphael waved his hand and turned around and walked out of the guild with Gray, leaving Raphael's last words in the air.
"Please... you must protect the guild!"
