The door closed behind the three Thunder God Tribe, leaving Laxus alone in the dim room to continue contemplating.
The three of them walked along the quiet corridor and soon walked out of the hotel door.
This hotel is located on the outskirts of town, with few people on the street. Just walk a little further and you will find Magnolia.
They deliberately chose to meet in such a remote place in order to operate in secret, so that no one in the guild would notice their gathering and subsequent actions.
On the way out of the town, Bickslow, who had been holding back for a long time, couldn't help but muttered, "Ah~ It's really unfair. You two have missions, but I don't. It's really disappointing."
"Keep your voice down, don't forget that the three of us are going to hide our whereabouts next." Evergreen unfolded Folding Fan in a flash, covering most of his face, with a dangerous light flashing in his squinted eyes.
"If my operation fails because you expose your whereabouts, I won't forgive you! This time on Fairy Tail Miss Selection Contest, I will definitely make a splash!"
A trace of jealousy crept onto her face, and her voice rose unconsciously even though she had just been asked to keep it down.
"What Titania, what Weekly Sosara's ace model... Humph, I should be the one who best represents the fairy!"
"Look how I can defeat all those self-righteous women in the selection competition!"
Bickslow and the treasures around him shook their heads and sighed in unison, "It's scary~women's jealousy~"
Evergreen's unkind eyes instantly glanced over. "What did you say?!"
"Ahem, no, I didn't say anything."
Bickslow froze, laughed dryly, and quickly changed the subject, his eyes falling on Freed who was walking in the front.
"Freed, is your Jutsu Shiki okay? Guild Master is old and frail. But those two guys, Gildarts and Blanc, are out-and-out monsters. If you lose the chain, then we will have to surrender directly and we won't be able to play anymore."
Freed's steps were steady and there was no wavering in his voice. "Jutsu Shiki's rules are absolute!"
He tilted his head slightly, and under his green bangs were a pair of confident eyes:
"Jutsu Shiki, as Set Magic, requires a lot of time to write in advance, in exchange for absolute execution of the rules."
"As long as I successfully deploy Jutsu Shiki, it will be absolutely foolproof!"
Hearing Freed's firm assurance, Bickslow stuck out his tongue and licked his lips, with a fanatical smile on his face:
"Hey... then I'm going to start looking forward to it, a game field of cannibalism!"
Soon, the three of them arrived at the Magnolia border. Freed stopped and solemnly reminded:
"The best way to hide is to leave. There are still a few days left before Harvest Festival. You two leave the town first and come back on the day of Harvest Festival. As for the early preparations, it's enough for me to stay here alone!"
"Okay~Okay~, ugh, it's really boring."
"It's boring! It's boring!" Dollss followed.
"Then I'll leave it all to you, Freed."
Bickslow and Evergreen left together, while Freed, who stayed behind, immediately started to arrange the arrangements.
It was a terrifying workload to write about the Jutsu Shiki traps all over the town. He was already running out of time in a few days, so he had to hurry up and work hard.
[Jutsu Shiki: Wizard cannot leave the Jutsu Shiki range]
[Jutsu Shiki: Using magic within the range of Jutsu Shiki will cause hypoxia]
[Jutsu Shiki: Magic cannot be used within the range of Jutsu Shiki]
[Jutsu Shiki: Only the winner of the battle can leave within the range of Jutsu Shiki]
... Many Jutsu Shikis were arranged one by one.
From that day on, there was a sneaky figure in the town, hunched over, holding Rapier and constantly writing and drawing on the ground and in the air.
Freed worked overtime from dawn to dusk every day, and deployed countless Jutsu Shiki around the town. It was okay at first. It was not easy to be found on the edge of the town, and it was easy to arrange.
But as the layout area gets closer to the center of the town, there are more and more people, and the probability of being discovered by the guild people increases.
In order not to attract attention, Freed had to start working shifts, sleeping during the day and getting up secretly late at night to decorate Jutsu Shiki.
The complicated work has made him almost tired and thin in the past few days, and his eye sockets are sunken. Fortunately, Jutsu Shiki has almost finished the arrangement, with only the last place left.
Tonight, Freed dragged his tired body and stood in front of the guild's gate, looking at the brand-new style of the guild and he was slightly stunned.
They Thunder God Tribe have been working outside for a long time and have not been back for almost half a year.
Although news of the completion of the new guild had long spread through newspapers, this was the first time he had seen the real thing with his own eyes.
'It's so beautiful... It seems that the guild is not all idiots.'
He sighed slightly in his heart.
'What a pity, the newly established guild may become a battlefield again.'
He shook his head mockingly, then suppressed his excess sympathy and arranged it again.
However, before placing the restriction Jutsu Shiki on the guild, he carefully placed a circle of Warning Jutsu Shiki [Wizard cannot enter] around the guild, and then launched it.
What he is going to arrange in the guild tonight is Advanced Jutsu Shiki, which contains multiple restrictions. Compared with the single rule Jutsu Shiki previously arranged, the multiple Jutsu Shiki is far from the same level in terms of restriction effects and difficulty of arrangement.
This requires him to spend a lot of time and great concentration to arrange it. If someone comes, there will be trouble.
Therefore, first arrange a circle of Warning Jutsu Shiki support. Once a guild member approaches, it will not only be blocked, but also give him enough reaction time to deal with it.
Then, Freed began to move around the guild. The tip of the sword flashed with the light of magic and passed through the air silently, leaving dense lines of Purple Runes in the air.
This is the final trap. As the final finishing stage approaches, the nerves that have been tense for several days are slightly relaxed, and Freed's mood inevitably begins to diverge.
'Laxus... can it really work?'
Although he has never seen with his own eyes how strong Gildarts and Blanc are, they would never take action seriously in the guild.
But... the name of a person, the shadow of a tree, Blanc and Gildarts are recognized as powerful, even above Laxus.
If I were young and frivolous, I would probably have dismissed these so-called reputations and arrogantly believed that they were just bragging by the weak and that I was no worse than anyone else.
Just like when he first met Laxus.
But Laxus made him realize his own weakness and made him clearly understand that those who are famous are not in vain.
Even if Jutsu Shiki is used to temporarily trap Blanc and Gildarts, it is only trapped. The duration of Jutsu Shiki is limited after all.
Once the battle is over and Jutsu Shiki fails, after the two people come out--
