"Please... just once, okay?"
This "face-changing stunt" made Lu Chongwei stunned.
One second he was a grumpy little wild cat, and the next second he turned into a clingy little milk cat?
Under this double attack, Lu Chongwei completely surrendered.
"Okay, okay, I'm afraid of you."
Lu Chongwei waved his hands helplessly, stood up and stretched.
"I'll take you there, take you there, okay? But let's agree first, I'll be the one to pick the mission. It won't be too dangerous."
"Yeah! Lu Chongwei is the best!"
Mirajane suddenly turned cloudy and sunny, jumped up excitedly, and even sent a good guy card to Lu Chongwei.
Just when Lu Chongwei was about to go to the taskbar to see if there were any suitable tasks,
Sudden changes occur.
A strange fluctuation of magic power enveloped the entire guild without warning.
This magical power is not aggressive, but it is like a thick mist that instantly penetrates into everyone's pores.
"Ha... Huh..."
Macao, who was still bragging loudly, suddenly yawned greatly, and his eyelids seemed as heavy as lead.
"What's going on... I feel so sleepy suddenly..."
Wakaba The pipe in his hand fell to the ground with a "clack", and he slid down the back of the chair, making a snoring sound before he even hit the ground.
Immediately afterwards, there were Cana, Levy, and the guild members who were drinking and chatting.
"Thump, thump, thump."
Like dominoes, people in the guild fell one after another.
In just a few seconds, the originally noisy guild hall suddenly became silent.
Only the sound of snoring echoed one after another.
"This is..."
Lu Chongwei's expression changed slightly.
He felt a powerful wave of sleepiness impacting his brain, trying to forcibly turn off the switch of his consciousness.
"You want me to sleep? It's a hundred years too early."
Lu Chongwei snorted coldly.
The spiritual pressure in the body shook slightly.
"Buzz--"
An invisible wave of air spread around him.
The sleep magic that invaded the body, the moment it encountered this spiritual pressure, was like a mouse meeting a cat, being driven away completely.
Lu Chongwei woke up instantly.
He turned his head and looked at Mirajane beside him.
At this time, Mirajane is obviously not in good condition.
She covered her head with both hands and her body was swaying. Her originally bright eyes had lost focus and her eyelids were trembling.
"So... so sleepy..."
Mirajane murmured, and his body fell backwards uncontrollably.
"Mira!"
Lu Chongwei, with quick eyes and quick hands, took a step forward and put his arms around her waist.
A warm and soft touch came from the palm of my hand.
Mirajane fell into Lu Chongwei's arms, her head resting on his chest, her breathing became long and steady, and she had obviously fallen asleep completely.
"Have you been hit by even magic power of Mira's level in an instant?"
Lu Chongwei frowned.
He looked around.
In the entire guild, except for him and Makarov, who also used magic to hold on, everyone fell down.
This range, this intensity.
It's definitely not a natural phenomenon.
"Someone is casting a spell."
Lu Chongwei gently placed Mirajane in his arms on the bench next to him, and took off his coat to cover her.
Then, he slowly turned around and stared closely at the guild door.
The source of the magical power that makes people sleep is right outside the door.
"Now that you're here, don't act like a fool."
Lu Chongwei put his hand on Ryujin Jakka on his waist, and his tone was cold.
"You are very brave to dare to act wild in Fairy Tail."
Outside the guild gate, yellow sand rolled in.
A slender figure slowly walked out of the wind and sand.
The man's whole body was wrapped tightly.
Wearing a dark blue turban and mask on his head, only a pair of eyes are exposed. He wears a thick cloak, and carries five magic wands of different shapes on his back that exude powerful magic waves.
As he got closer, the drowsy magic wave became more intense.
Lu Chongwei stood in the center of the guild hall, with his feet slightly apart, in a posture to attack.
"Run--"
Ryujin Jakka is half an inch out of the sheath.
Although it was not completely pulled out, the fiery spiritual pressure had already locked onto the person coming at the door.
As long as the opponent makes any aggressive move, Lu Chongwei will definitely swing the knife without hesitation.
"Who are you?"
Lu Chongwei's voice is deep and dignified.
"Isn't this kind of greeting gift too rude?"
The visitor stopped and stood on the steps in front of the guild.
Facing Lu Chongwei's spiritual pressure lock, he did not show the slightest panic and still maintained a calm posture.
"I mean no harm."
The man's voice came out through the mask and seemed a little muffled.
"This is just to avoid unnecessary trouble."
"Trouble?"
Lu Chongwei sneered, opened the knife with his thumb, and a wisp of flame shot out instantly.
"You knocked our guild members unconscious all over the place. Do you call this avoiding trouble?"
"Lu Chongwei, don't do anything yet."
Just as the situation was tense, the voice of Makarov came from behind the bar.
The old president jumped down from his chair, walked to Lu Chongwei with his hands behind his back, and looked at the mysterious man at the door.
"This unique Sleep Magic... I seem to have heard of it somewhere."
Makarov touched his chin, his eyes became sharp.
"Since Your Excellency said there is no malice, why don't you dare to show your true colors?"
"If you want to entrust a task, you will be blacklisted if you appear in this way."
The mysterious man was silent for a moment.
He slowly raised his hand and took off the mask on his head.
"I'm here to join Fairy Tail."
As the mask fell, a young and handsome face was revealed.
She has short blue hair and a red tattoo on her right eye.
The moment they saw this face, Lu Chongwei and Makarov were surprised at the same time.
"This is..."
Lu Chongwei's hand holding the knife tightened.
This face is so familiar.
Magic Council's young member of parliament, one of Ten Wizard Saints, Jellal Fernandes.
"Are you Jellal Fernandes?"
Lu Chongwei frowned, the vigilance in his eyes getting stronger.
What are the people from Magic Council doing here at Fairy Tail? And they want to join the guild? Are they going to be undercover?
"No, that's not right."
Makarov shook his head, staring closely into the other person's eyes.
"Although they look exactly the same, their temperaments are completely different."
"Jellal Fernandes That guy's eyes are sinister and evil. But this kid's eyes..."
Makarov paused, seeming to confirm something.
"Are you the twin brother of Jellal Fernandes? Jellal?"
Upon hearing this name, the mysterious man's expression did not change much.
He looked at the two of them calmly and shook his head.
"I am not Jellal Fernandes, nor am I Jellal."
"My name is Mystogan."
"As for this face..."
