Fairy Tail: Starting with Fairy Queen Erza

Although Laxus has a bad temper and doesn't like to talk, he seems somewhat distant from the guild members.

However, not a single person in the entire Fairy Tail guild believed that Laxus was unbeatable.

You can say Laxus is difficult to get along with, but you can't say Laxus is bad at cooking...

"Hey, hey, hey! You can't bet everything on one person, you little devils."

When Makarov saw that everyone present had bet their money on Lacussas, he frowned and loudly rebuked them.

Honestly, this makes him want to do something sneaky to prevent Laxus from participating in this year's S-rank mage assessment organized by the guild.

cough cough...

"I'm betting 20,000 J on Erza!"

"I'm betting on Erza too..."

"I'm betting five thousand J on Mirajane!"

"I'm betting 20,000 J on Urutia!"

With Makarov's shout, the choices among the guild's mages began to diversify, and everyone wrote down all the candidates they thought might participate in the S-rank mage assessment.

"I'm betting 10,000 J on Naz!"

"You've got guts!"

"I'm betting 20,000 J on Gray!"

"I'm betting five thousand J on Elfman!"

Following this, more and more dissenting voices emerged within the guild, and they began to select some less popular but still capable members.

After all, these people are highly likely to be selected, and the fewer people bet on them, the more they will earn.

"I bet 3,000 J on Riddasu Jiongna!"

"If we're not brothers, I really didn't want to mention you..."

"You can bet on very unpopular players, because these unpopular but skilled players are prone to upsets! But you can't bet on anything too unorthodox, right?!"

"Why don't you just use three thousand J to buy a meal?"

"Why would you bet on an artist?!"

"If it were a painting competition, Ridasu Jonah would definitely be number one, but this is a competition that requires armed combat..."

As the nominated archmages became increasingly unorthodox, the members of the guild were quite speechless.

Even Ridasu Jonah himself was stunned when he saw his name written on the nomination board. He asked in confusion, "Huh? Me?! Participating in the S-Class Archmage Examination? Competing with Laxus and the others?"

"I'm betting 500,000 J on Erza!"

Just as everyone was having a bit of a fuss, a discordant voice slowly rang out, leaving everyone present speechless with shock.

"hiss……"

"What?! Five hundred thousand J?!"

"Are you kidding me? This is way too much!"

"Even if Erza is your daughter, there's no need to emphasize that, is there?"

"We're all just playing around, you're here to cause trouble, right?"

Upon hearing this, everyone gasped in shock, then looked at the figure slowly walking into the Fairy Tail guild hall and murmured amongst themselves.

Yes, the visitor was none other than Ian, who had just woken up.

"Ah woo~"

Good morning, President!

"Let me see who everyone chose?"

Ian yawned and strode to the bar at the back of the guild hall. He first gave a light greeting to Makarov, the guild leader, and then...

Then they looked at the list that contained the names of the Fairy Tail members who believed they would participate in this year's Fairy Tail S-Class Mage Exam.

The list includes Laxus, Erza, Ultear, and Mirajane, four of whom are widely recognized as powerful. Following them are Natsu, Gray, Lyon, Elfman, and Ridas Gonna.

"what?"

Ian was surprised to see Ridasu Jonah's name on the list.

"Don't look at me, I don't know what happened either..."

"Perhaps it was a prank by a member of one of the guilds?"

Ridsoo Jonah shrugged helplessly. As an artist, a painter who could use magic, he wasn't really interested in fighting or anything like that.

"Isn't Kana there?"

Ian noticed that Kana's name was not on the list, so he picked up a piece of chalk and casually filled in Kana's name, then bet 10,000 J on Kana.

Yes, in Ian's heart, Kana is absolutely worthy of the title of S-class mage seed. In terms of potential magical talent and physical potential, Kana is not much weaker than Mirajane and others.

Although, Kana is definitely out of the running for S-rank in this year's guild...

However, this does not mean that Kana will never have the opportunity to pass the assessment in the future.

In response, Cana said, "Ian, thank you so much! You went to all that trouble to let me experience failure."

After Ian finished doing all this, he frowned deeply, rubbing his chin as he stared blankly at the list of people in front of him, seemingly pondering something important.

“Ian…”

Makarov seemed to notice Ian's unusual behavior. He looked up at Ian, who was staring blankly at the list of names, and asked in confusion, "What's wrong with you? Are you alright?"

"I just think..."

"It seems that something crucial is missing from this list."

"But now, suddenly, I've forgotten something, and I can't remember it for a moment..."

Ian frowned, rubbing his temples as he pondered deeply.

"Um?!"

"Do you think anyone is missing from this list?"

Upon hearing this, Makarov turned to look at the list of people beside him.

To be honest, the names on the list of members voted by the guild members to participate in this year's S-class mage assessment were very close to the list of candidates he had expected to participate in this year's S-class mage assessment...

If there's any difference...

The only difference was the addition of a great painter, Ridas Joanna.

Furthermore, in Makarov's view, Elfman's strength was not sufficient to participate in this year's S-class mage assessment.

We should train for another three or four years before talking about it!

That's about it.

However, since Ian said there was a problem with this list, then there must be something wrong with it. Makarov thought to himself and began to recall the specific performances and mission completion status of all the mages in the guild over the past year.

"correct……"

Just as Makarov was reflecting with Ian, trying to fill in any gaps in his knowledge, wondering if he had overlooked anything due to his age, and identifying capable members within the guild who were eligible to participate in the S-rank mage exam…

A sudden realization flashed across Ian's face. He seemed to have thought of something important. He turned to look at Makarov and said earnestly, "Speaking of which, I just remembered something very important! I wonder if Chairman Makarov has thought of it?"

"What's going on?"

"Just tell me directly!"

"This old man has nothing in his head right now."

Makarov looked up at Ian and asked.

"that is……"

"Is Uru now an S-rank mage in our guild?"

"Because I can't quite remember, I was planning to ask you."

Ian looked at Makarov and asked seriously.

"Eh?!"

Upon hearing this, Makarov's eyes widened. After going through his memories, he said incredulously, "That's right, speaking of which, Uru, who is currently one of the Ten Great Archmages, doesn't seem to be an S-rank Archmage of the guild."

"what?"

"No way! That Uru isn't an S-rank mage from the guild?"

“I remember now! Although Uru joined the guild four years ago, he has been training outside all the time and usually never shows up at the guild.”

"At the same time, in my memory, there is indeed no record of Uru participating in the guild's S-rank mage assessment, which means that Uru is indeed not yet S-rank..."

"Wait, didn't Uru already receive the title of one of the Ten Archmages from the Magic Council? That's the same level as the Guild Master, right?"

"So, she, a mage already recognized by the Magic Council as one of the top ten mages in Ishgar, is going to compete with everyone else in the guild for the only S-rank position this year? Are you kidding me?"

For a moment, the Fairy Tail members present were all stunned, their jaws dropping to the floor.

So, Ulquiorra from the 'Ten Wizard Saints' will also be participating in this year's Fairy Tail guild's S-class mage exam, right?

Since Uru of the 'Ten Saints' also has to participate in the assessment, can the others just withdraw from the assessment?

After all, what's the point of taking the exam?

Yes, Fairy Tail's matchmaking system is as excellent as ever!

You are a rising star just beginning to explore the mysteries of magic.

So the person you will be competing with next is Uru Mirkovich, one of the Ten Holy Archmages, who has already forged his own path in magic, immersed himself in the field of magic for decades, and is the strongest mage on the continent.

Chapter 62 Ian, who has both a son and a daughter at a young age!

"Uruguay is going to win..."

"Guild Master, I bet Uru Mirkovich one million J that he'll pass the S-rank exam and become an S-rank Archmage this year! Don't say anything more, I'm going to sell my house right now..."
