Watching You Is Giving You Face

Everyone in the guild had arrived, except for Gildarts, who was off fooling around, and Mistgun, who was too ashamed to show his face.

They all craned their necks toward Makarov at the bar counter, because today was a very important day.

"I hereby announce that the nominee for the S-Class examination is..."

Here it came! A mage who did not want to become S-Class was no good mage!

"Laxus!"

And then that was it!

"Master, that's all? There's no one else?"

Makarov looked at everyone and said, "Feiyang's strength was originally sufficient, but he hasn't accumulated enough missions. He can only wait until next year!"

Feiyang Yun curled his lips in displeasure. Even though he had worked hard to complete more than a dozen missions over the past two months, he still fell short. He had joined the guild too late, and there was nothing he could do about that.

"As for the rest of you... train harder. You're still far from ready!"

The crowd let out a chorus of wails!

"No helping it. I can only keep working hard!"

That was Erza!

"Damn it, next year I'll definitely get nominated before some bastard... no, two bastards!"

That was Mira!

"I'll definitely become an S-Class Mage! I'm fired up!"

That was Natsu!

"What a hot-blooded idiot! You'll definitely be slower than me!"

That was Gray!

Gulp, gulp, gulp!

That was Kana!

If anyone wanted to become S-Class the most, it was undoubtedly her. Only then could she get closer to her father!

But as for her strength... she should just drown her sorrows in drink!

Gulp, gulp, gulp...

"Laxus, this is an S-Class mission. Complete it, and you'll become an S-Class Mage!"

Laxus rose and took the mission order. After glancing at it, he showed no concern and instead turned his gaze toward Yun Feiyang.

"What a shame. I got there before you!"

Yun Feiyang curled his lips. "What are you showing off for? It won't be too late for me next year. Don't forget, you're four years older than me!"

Laxus's face darkened. "The fact remains that I became an S-Class Mage before you!"

As for whether he could complete the mission, he never doubted himself. Yun Feiyang did not doubt his strength either.

"You're four years older than me!"

"I'll be able to go to the second floor from now on!"

"You're four years older than me!"

"The entire Magic World will know that Fairy Tail has gained an S-Class Mage. His name is Laxus Dreyar, not Feiyang Yun."

"You're four years older than me!"

"Is that the only thing you know how to say?"

"I'm just telling the truth. You're four years older than me!"

"You bastard!"

An irritated Laxus left directly, looking thoroughly exasperated!

Yun Someone wore a smug grin. Trying to compete with me? You're still too green!

Makarov shook his head with an amused smile. "Feiyang, don't slack off either. I have high hopes for you next year!"

"Don't worry, Master. Next year's S-Class title is mine. I said it—Gildarts won't be able to stop me even if he comes back!"

"Very good. That's exactly the spirit you should have!"

There were no surprises in Laxus's examination. He passed smoothly.

From then on, aside from veteran Gildarts, Fairy Tail had another S-Class Mage. It also signified that the new generation had begun stepping onto the stage of the strong!

Yun Feiyang kept to his usual routine. Other than necessary training, meditation, and doing missions with reasonable diligence, he spent the rest of his time enjoying life.

Half a year passed, and the date became July 1st, 779.

"We're heading out to do a mission!"

"Mm, go on. Keep your younger brother and sister safe!"

"Got it! Do you really need to tell me that? I'll definitely take good care of them!"

"No, I meant keep them safe. As for taking care of someone... Lisanna is more likely to be taking care of you!"

"You... bastard!"

Fourteen-year-old Mira had started to develop. She was already quite well-endowed, and when she got angry, they even trembled a little!

"Hehe... Brother-in-law, make sure to take care of yourself while we're gone!"

"Got it, got it. I'll have to trouble you to worry about your sister and brother!"

"It's only right!"

The three siblings had already begun teaming up to take missions outside the guild. Mira could now use Satan's Soul skillfully, so protecting her younger siblings was no problem.

And then there was Little White. It clung to Lisanna all day long and had become her personal pet dog.

Though it was a pet dog, it had grown as well, and its strength was not weak!

Watching the three of them and the dog leave the guild, someone sprawled over the bar counter and began loafing around.

"Feiyang, aren't you going on a mission?"

Kana sat nearby, gulping down her drink!

"Nope, I'm taking a break. There has to be a balance between work and rest."

"Then do you want to go on a date with me? While Mira isn't here!"

"What do you mean by that? Why would I need to wait until she isn't around to date a woman?"

"You tell me?"

Kana shot him a look of contempt!

"That's enough. Let me say this seriously one more time: I have nothing to do with her. She isn't anything to me, and she has no right to control what I do!"

Everyone in the guild went, "Tch!"

"You people... forget it. I can't be bothered with you!"

"So, are you going or not?"

Feiyang waved his hand in disdain. "No! I told you, you're still too young. Besides, I don't like drunk women!"

Kana lowered her head and looked. They really were a little too small. In another two years, they would be about right!

"Feiyang!"

Makarov walked over at that moment!

"What?"

"Stop looking so listless and take a walk with me!"

"Where to?"

"The routine meeting between guilds!"

"Huh? Is it already that time?"

The annual routine meeting was always held in July and lasted half a month.

"Yes, come with me!"

"Why? You old men just eat, drink, brag, and shoot the breeze. What does that have to do with me?"

"So you can get familiar with everyone and meet the masters of the other guilds. They'll bring members too. Get acquainted so there won't be conflicts over missions later."

"I see... sure. Going along to mooch food and drinks doesn't sound bad!"

The two arrived at Magnolia Station and boarded a train for Clover Town, where the routine meeting would be held.

Across from them sat a scruffy-looking young man and woman, but that was not the important part!

The important part was the woman. Her chest was extremely generous, and she dressed very boldly. The deep, ravine-like cleavage was impossible to ignore.

Sure enough, Yun Feiyang and Makarov leaned together, their gazes drifting to exactly where they ought to be.

"This must be a blessing from the Goddess of Luck!"

"I couldn't agree more!"

"How big do you think they are? I'm guessing D!"

"Isn't that inappropriate? We're respectable people!"

"Old Man, do you need me to expose those magazines you've been collecting?"

"Ahem... based on this old man's eighty years of seasoned judgment, they're more than D. At least E!"

"That exaggerated?"

"Isn't it obvious? They're far too prominent!"

"Truly gifted!"

"Who could deny it!"

The two were being utterly lecherous. Even though they were whispering, they still angered the owner of those assets!

Little flyer snapped, "You two, fine, you were peeking—but you even dared to make comments? Do you think I don't exist?"

"Were we? Did we peek?"

"We were looking openly and honestly!"

"Besides, this isn't called making comments. It's called appreciating and critiquing beautiful things!"

The two wore expressions that said, We're only looking at you because we think highly of you. Their shamelessness made the noses of the two people opposite them practically twist with rage!

They had never seen such brazenly shameless people!
