Gray is sitting on the table not far away.
He was holding a glass of ice water in his hand, with a mocking expression on his face.
"Going to trouble Brother Zhongwei early in the morning is not asking for abuse."
Lucy covered his face helplessly.
She sighed deeply, completely despairing of Natsu's single-cell brain.
"Love! The winner has been decided!"
Happy took out a small wooden sign from somewhere and raised it high above his head.
It flew in mid-air and announced the result loudly.
"In this duel, Lu Chongwei wins!"
Lu Chongwei slowly retracted his right fist.
He moved his wrist, and the bones made a crisp clicking sound.
Looking at Happy in mid-air, Lu Chongwei suddenly remembered something.
"Hey, Happy, don't leave in a hurry yet."
Lu Chongwei called out and stopped the blue cat who was about to fly off to eat fish.
He walked to the bar, pulled out a high stool and sat down.
"I met a flying cat on the street yesterday."
Lu Chongwei picked up the coffee on the table.
He blew the hot air gently and his tone was casual.
"It's also white, a female cat. She's pretty cute."
Upon hearing these words, Happy's body paused in mid-air.
"Female... female cat?!"
Happy's eyes turned into big heart shapes.
It dropped the wooden sign in its hand and rushed in front of Lu Chongwei like a whirlwind.
"What's her name? Where does she live? Does she like fish!"
Happy was so excited that he was incoherent.
Its two little paws clawed at Lu Chongwei's arm, and its saliva almost flowed out.
"Her name is Carla, and she comes from a guild called Cait Shelter."
Lu Chongwei pulled Happy's claws away in disgust.
He took out a tissue and wiped the cat drool on his sleeve.
"If you are interested, you can go find her yourself."
"Carla... What a beautiful name!"
Happy held his hot cheeks in his hands.
It has completely fallen into a pink fantasy, and its body is twisting and turning in mid-air.
"No! I have to prepare a gift quickly! I want to give her the most delicious fish!"
Happy shouted excitedly.
It immediately turned around and rushed out of the guild gate like a blue cannonball.
Just then.
The sound of slow footsteps came from the stairs on the second floor.
"Zhongwei, come with me."
Makarov's voice sounded in the hall.
Everyone looked up and were stunned.
Makarov is wearing an extremely complicated and solemn white uniform.
His chest was covered with shiny medals, shining brightly under the magic lamp.
There is also a large white cloak on the back, with golden tassels on the edges.
This outfit looked extremely funny on his short and withered body.
Like a child who has stolen an adult's clothes.
"Pfft..."
Cana covered his mouth and tried not to laugh out loud.
"President, what happened today? Are you going to attend some weird Bal Masqué?"
Macao turned his head, trying hard to hold back his laughter, and his shoulders twitched violently.
"Stop talking nonsense! Just be quiet!"
Makarov blushed and glared at everyone in embarrassment.
He quickly walked to the bar and grabbed Lu Chongwei's wrist.
"Hurry up and follow me, Magic Council is still waiting over there!"
Makarov couldn't help but drag Lu Chongwei towards the door.
"Magic Council? What are you doing there?"
Lu Chongwei frowned slightly.
He fell back resistingly, with a look of disgust on his face.
"Old man, what the hell are you doing?"
Walking on the streets of Magnolia.
Makarov put his hands behind his back and his expression became extremely serious.
"Tower of Heaven's incident has become too big, and the entire magical world has been shaken."
Makarov sighed, with helplessness in his tone.
"Coupled with the fact that Phantom Lord was completely disbanded before, Magic Council is now facing great pressure from public opinion."
He turned his head and looked at Lu Chongwei, who was much taller than him.
"The newly reorganized Magic Council urgently needs to produce some dazzling results to appease the people's panic."
Makarov stopped.
He stretched out his withered finger and pointed at Lu Chongwei.
"And you have a very high prestige among the people, and you have outstanding military exploits in defeating Phantom Lord and destroying Tower of Heaven."
"You are now the perfect candidate to fill the vacant seat of Ten Wizard Saints."
I heard the words Ten Wizard Saints.
Lu Chongwei's brows furrowed even more.
"I'm not interested."
Lu Chongwei refused without hesitation.
He put his hands in his trouser pockets and turned around to walk back.
"With a bad title, I will be used as free labor by those old antiques like Magic Council. It will be very troublesome."
"You brat! Stop!"
Makarov was so anxious that he jumped.
He hugged Lu Chongwei's thigh and dragged him hard.
"This is the honor of the entire guild! Even if you climb today, you have to climb to Magic Council for me!"
Under Makarov's constant bullying and constant stalking.
Lu Chongwei finally compromised reluctantly.
A few hours later.
Magic Council Headquarters.
Two magnificent bronze doors tens of meters high were tightly closed.
The door is carved with complex magic circles and ancient runes, exuding a solemn atmosphere.
"Squeak--"
The thick door was slowly pushed open.
A Frog Messenger wearing a robe stood respectfully behind the door.
"President Makarov, Your Excellency Lu Chongwei, Lord Chairman have been waiting for a long time."
Frog Messenger bowed deeply and led the way.
Lu Chongwei followed Makarov expressionlessly into the spacious hall.
Both sides of the main hall were filled with newly-appointed members Magic Council.
All eyes were focused on Lu Chongwei.
There is curiosity, awe, and scrutiny.
On the high platform in the center of the hall.
The new Chairman Gulam Doma stood up.
He was wearing a luxurious purple robe and looked solemn.
"Lu Chongwei."
Gulam Doma's voice was amplified by magic and echoed in the hall.
"In the battle against the dark guild Phantom Lord, you showed amazing strength and protected the civilians of Magnolia."
Gulam Doma opened the parchment scroll in his hand and read it loudly.
"In the Tower of Heaven incident, you turned the tide. Crush defeated Jellal's conspiracy and saved countless innocent lives."
The congressmen below nodded and whispered.
No one can question these solid achievements.
"In view of your outstanding achievements and noble character."
Gulam Doma closed the scroll and looked at Lu Chongwei with burning eyes.
"Magic Council unanimously decided to grant you the supreme title of 'Ten Wizard Saints'!"
Two maids carried trays and walked slowly to Lu Chongwei.
In the tray, there is a white gold-inlaid cloak that symbolizes Ten Wizard Saints's identity, and an exclusive badge that exudes bright light.
