Fairy Tail: I'm invincible when I receive anime characters!

The most dangerous job is the subjugation class, which mainly involves subjugating various powerful monsters. This world has abundant magic power; humans have mages, and animals have monsters.

A powerful monster, even stronger than the Ten Wizard Saints.

Qi Yan scanned the list and chose one with a reward of 100 million J. This mission was not too far from Fairy Tail. It would take about a day and a half to travel there and back, about three days in total. If the mission itself was included, it would take about four or five days in total.

After deducting some rest time, I can complete one A-level task about once a week, which is four A-level tasks a month. In addition, the system gives me one card draw opportunity every month, which means it takes about two months to have one ten-draw opportunity.

Just as Qi Yan was about to tear up the commission.

Makarov's authoritative voice rang out: "No! You cannot do this job."

Qi Yan looked in Makarov's direction and saw a striking head of long red hair, a beautiful face, wearing silver-gray armor, a black pleated skirt, and a pair of black boots, looking heroic and dashing.

Qi Yan recognized the other party's identity at a glance.

"Fairy Queen - Erza!"

Chapter 16: Another S-Rank Mission

Erza, the Fairy Queen, is the female protagonist of the Fairy Tail anime. Although she is technically the second female lead, she is more popular than the first female lead.

Qi Yan also really likes the character Erza, so he was able to recognize her at a glance.

This was the first time he had seen Erza in real life. When he joined the guild before, Erza was not there; she seemed to be on a mission.

"What's going on here?"

"It seems that Erza was going to do an S-rank request, but the chairman refused."

"S-level?!"

S-rank commissions are extremely difficult, and even for S-rank mages, it's a life-or-death job; one wrong move and they could be doomed.

Aside from extremely powerful S-class mages, such as Gildarts, even S-class mages rarely accept S-class requests under normal circumstances.

"President! I am confident that I can complete this S-rank mission!"

Erza looked at Makarov and said that Erza had been an S-class mage for three years. She passed the S-class mage exam at the age of fifteen and became the youngest S-class mage in the history of Fairy Tail guild.

After becoming an S-rank, she didn't rush to take on S-rank missions because she knew her strength was insufficient, so she patiently honed her abilities.

She originally planned to take on an S-level job last year, but then Mira's incident happened, so she patiently honed her skills for another year, and now she is eighteen years old.

Hearing that a newcomer in the guild completed an S-rank mission on his very first job greatly aroused Erza's competitive spirit. She had become an S-rank guild member but had not yet completed an S-rank mission, while a newcomer had done it.

Therefore, she plans to take on an S-rank mission.

"No! This job is too dangerous. It's not a matter of confidence, it's a matter of ability."

"I have the ability to complete this task!"

"You stubborn brat, why are you so headstrong?!"

Makarov was so angry that he slammed his fist on the table.

Elfman remarked, "Why does this scene look so familiar?"

As he spoke, he glanced at Qi Yan, who seemed to have had the same conversation with the president a few days ago.

"President, I'm not being stubborn, I'm genuinely confident that I can complete this task."

Makarov sighed and said, "Oh! You silly girl, S-rank commissions aren't that simple. This commission was actually posted more than two years ago. In those two years, seven or eight powerful mages have chosen to take on the challenge, but none of them have returned. You know why I didn't let you go, right?"

"what?!"

"Seven or eight mages have all fallen?!"

The guild members were shocked. Mages who could accept S-rank missions must be powerful mages. So many powerful mages had fallen. This S-rank mission must be too dangerous.

"President, I still want to give it a try!"

Erza said seriously, "Every mission is dangerous. Only by constantly challenging ourselves can we break through our limits."

"You child, I just can't understand you."

Makarov was furious.

At this moment, Makarov glanced at Qi Yan in front of the commission board and thought to himself: This kid seems to have been thinking about the mission on the second floor all along.

"Okay! I agree."

"real?!"

Erza was pleasantly surprised. Judging from the president's attitude, she thought he would definitely not agree.

"However, I have one condition!"

"What conditions?"

"That means you can't do this job alone. It's too dangerous for you to do it alone. I'll assign someone to go with you so I can feel at ease."

As he spoke, Makarov pointed at Qi Yan in front of the request board: "Qi Yan, you go with Erza!"

Qi Yan was also a little confused, pointing at himself: "Me?!!"

"Huh?!"

Everyone in the guild was taken aback by Makarov's words.

Qi Yan is just a newcomer who recently joined the guild. He just completed an S-rank mission not long ago, and now he's going to do a second S-rank mission? That's too outrageous.

"That's right! It's you, kid. Haven't you always wanted to do an S-rank mission? I'll give you a chance to do this S-rank mission with Erza. Are you in or not?"

[Ding! Accept S-rank quest: Legendary Sword? Quest reward: One 10-pull!]

"Do it! Do it! Do it!"

Upon seeing the system notification, Qi Yan immediately raised his hand and shouted.

How could I not do it? One S-rank commission is worth 10 A-rank commissions. Besides, doing 10 A-rank commissions is too troublesome, requiring running around. It's not as convenient as doing one S-rank commission.

Qi Yan quickly came over: "President, I'll do it!"

"Erza, this mission will be completed by you and Qi Yan working together. If you don't agree, then I can't allow you to do this job alone."

Makarov looked at Erza and said, "S-rank missions are too dangerous. Although Erza's overall abilities are very strong, the possibility of failure is also very high. Although Qi Yan is a newcomer, he already has experience in completing S-rank missions. And judging from Elfman's description, although Qi Yan's endurance is a bit lacking, if he goes all out, the strength he unleashes will definitely be among the top of the S-rank mages."

If it weren't for the fear that this kid would get too arrogant, we could have made him an S-class mage directly.

Only when Qi Yan went with Erza could he feel a little at ease.

"I agree!"

Erza didn't hesitate at all. She wasn't the kind of person who would deliberately risk her life. She wouldn't refuse if it was possible to complete the mission more safely.

"Hello, I'm Erza, nice to meet you."

Erza extended her hand to Qi Yan in a very generous manner to introduce herself.

Qi Yan also extended his hand and shook hands with Erza: "My name is Qi Yan, nice to meet you."

"Hmm, I've heard of you. You single-handedly defeated the Phantom Thieves and completed an S-rank mission. You're very reliable!"

"It's just a coincidence."

"An S-rank mission isn't something you can complete by chance. We can spar sometime in the future."

"Uh... well!"

Qi Yan saw the fierce competitive spirit in Erza's eyes, as if she wanted to defeat him.

"Qi Yan, take a look at the mission."

Makarov handed the letter of authorization to Qi Yan.

Qi Yan accepted the letter of authorization; this was the first time he had ever formally seen an S-level letter of authorization.

The letter of authorization was marked with a large red 'S' to highlight the dangerous nature of the mission.

[Legendary Sword (S): There is a legendary sword in a temple deep in the western forest of the Kingdom of Sobea. Pull out the legendary sword and return it to the Sobea Royal Palace.]

"The mission doesn't seem that complicated!"

Makarov said with a serious expression, "The simpler the mission, the more dangerous it is. Seven or eight powerful mages have already perished on this mission."

"I don't know much about this mission, but I do know about the Western Great Forest of the Kingdom of Sobea. Its official name is the Western Great Forest, but it also has another name: the 'Monster Great Forest'!"

Chapter 17 Kingdom of Swords

"Monster Forest?!!"

Levy gasped when she heard the name.

Salusuk looked at Levy and said, "What? Levy, you know?"

Levy nodded: "It is recorded in the Magic Chronicles that the Demon Forest is one of the legendary forbidden zones for humans, and it is said that millions of demons live there."

"A million heads?! How much is a million? I can't count them all! Happy, lend me your finger!!"

Natsu was startled and started counting on his fingers in a panic.

Harpy complained, "Don't even mention your fingers, you wouldn't have enough fur on my body to go around!"

Gray asked in confusion, "Since there are so many monsters in this forest, isn't this country afraid of being destroyed by them?"

Makarov explained, "This brings us to the Kingdom of Sobea. The Kingdom of Sobea is also known as the Kingdom of Swordsmen. The entire nation there reveres swordsmanship. Compared to our Mage Guild, there are far more Swordsmen Guilds there."

"The Swordsman Guild mainly goes to the Monster Forest to hunt, defeat monsters, and bring back monster materials to sell. The number of monsters hunted determines the level up, from one-star swordsman to nine-star swordsman."

"Among them, the Nine-Star Swordsman is roughly equivalent to an S-rank mage in our Mage Guild."

"Thanks to the hunting efforts of many swordsmen, the Kingdom of Sobea managed to withstand the attacks of the magical beasts, and thanks to the materials produced from the bodies of the monsters, its national strength ranks among the top in the entire continent of Ishgar."

"That's about all I know. I've heard about the legendary sword for a long time, but I thought it was just a rumor."

"I'm saying all this just to make you realize how dangerous this mission is. This mission was initially posted in those swordsman guilds, and countless seven-star, eight-star, and even nine-star swordsmen went to challenge it one after another, only to all of them fall in the Demon Forest."

"Later, when the missions could not be completed, they were distributed to various mage guilds, and some mages who went to challenge them all ended in failure."

"This mission may seem to be only S-rank, but all of our guild leaders believe that its difficulty is approaching SS-rank, which is why I'm stopping you from going."

"SS-rank?!"

Everyone in the guild was shocked to hear this. SS-level work is above S-level, and it is twice as difficult and dangerous as S-level work.

"My advice to you is that if you think the mission is too difficult and cannot be completed, retreat immediately. Staying alive is more important than anything else."

"Yes! President!"

Qi Yan and Erza both nodded seriously in agreement.

Qi Yan also felt that things were getting a bit tricky. The Demon Forest, with its countless demons, was a considerable challenge for him, and it was the most troublesome type he had ever encountered.

However, this did not stop him from giving up the mission; on the contrary, he felt a sense of excitement and anticipation.

During his battle with the Phantom Thieves, he also felt an unprecedented and exhilarating sensation.

Could it be that I'm actually warlike at heart? No, before I transmigrated, I never fought, and I only cursed when my teammates were bad at King of Glory.

Erza said to Qi Yan, "Qi Yan, let's split up and go back to pack our luggage. We'll meet at Magnolia train station in an hour."

After they finished talking, the two left the guild.

"Oh my gosh! I really want to do an S-rank mission too!!"

Natsu watched the two figures walk away, his face full of envy.

Gray chimed in, "It's precisely because we lack the ability that we can't complete S-rank missions!"

"Didn't Elfman also do S-rank missions?"

Elfman said helplessly, "I was just standing around doing nothing. Qi Yan did all the work. If it were me, I probably would have been killed long ago."

Despite participating in an S-rank mission, he was still shaken. This S-rank mission was even more dangerous than the one he and his sister had done a year ago. Every mage in the Phantom Thieves was a formidable opponent, especially their leader, whose Total Reflection magic was extremely troublesome.

After returning home, Qi Yan quickly packed his luggage and headed to the train station.

After a while.

"Sorry to keep you waiting."

"I just arrived too...so much luggage!!"

Qi Yan couldn't help but complain when he saw Erza. Erza was pulling a car full of bags and suitcases. Was she going out to do a mission? Was she moving? No, even if Qi Yan were moving, he wouldn't have this much luggage.
