The People Strive to Improve Themselves

Early the next morning after everyone returned, they all came to the guild hall, where each person lined up to receive their assigned cleaning duty from Allen.

Students like Natsu only needed to clean the school, while everyone else had to clean the guild from inside to out and put up some New Year decorations in preparation for the New Year of Year X780 a few days later.

Every year around this time, the boys like Natsu would try to escape the cleaning or simply muddle through it, but this year they didn't dare entertain the thought, because Erza was supervising them at school.
