Chapter 62: New Rules for the Demon Entrance Examination
"What? Mr. Ajma is here to preside over the Demon Advancement Exam? ”
In the guild, when Old Man Makarov announced the decision with a smile on the stage, the whole hall exploded.
Renault stood beside Beeswax, mingling in the crowd, this time of year is the most crowded time in the guild, and many guys who don't like to show up on weekdays also return to the guild, the purpose is to participate in this fairy tail event - the Demon Jin Exam.
Becoming an S-class magician is every magician's dream, because it not only symbolizes a level, but also represents an affirmation of strength. According to everyone's convention, becoming an S-level magician can take on ultra-difficult tasks alone, and you don't have to be limited to the constraints of the magician team, and you will inevitably become the core of the team. What's more, S-class magicians are qualified to accept named commissions, and being able to be named and assigned tasks by the entrusting party is a great honor for magicians.
However, there are only a limited number of places that can become S-class magicians every year, so a while ago, everyone worked hard to complete various tasks, wanting to brush up on their presence in front of President Makarov, and even Eluffman and Lishana were very busy. The only two people in the entire guild who are idle are probably Mira Zhen, who has successfully exterminated the White Whale and completed the gambling task with the old man Makarov, and Renault, who has not been interested in being promoted to S-level magician at all.
But looking at everyone so enthusiastic, Renault also has a faint yearning in his heart, if he has the opportunity, he will also intervene, even if there is no idea of promotion, it seems to be quite interesting to join in the fun.
"What's the matter, haven't you been complaining that my review is too strict, so this time I asked Yajima to preside over the exam, he is one of the members of the council, and you don't have anything to say now." President Makarov said proudly to everyone.
"Great, it's finally not the old man who presides, maybe this time I'll have a chance!" Natsu was excited to stop in the audience, opening her mouth and throwing her head up to spew out a stream of flames.
"Idiot, whether you can be promoted or not depends on your brain, and it has nothing to do with the examiner." Gray on the side sneered.
"What are you talking about, you bastard exhibitionist, if you don't accept it, go and go alone!" Natsu was easily provoked by Gray, and the heads of the two were pressed together, neither of them convinced, looking like two excited little bulls.
"Nazgo, Brother Gray, calm down......" Lisana anxiously persuaded beside her.
"The new examiner, it doesn't matter, manhood is to face all difficulties, right, sister." Elufman clenched the joints of his fists with a look of smugness.
"Don't always take me with you when you say 'manly', but this is a good opportunity, Elsa, dare you make a bet to see who can pass the exam first." Mira stared maliciously at the red-haired girl beside her.
"Bet? Yes, but what's the stake? "Elsa is dressed as a knight and speaks like a knight.
"If anyone loses, how about stopping the work of the Magus for a while and going to shoot a photo album in Fairy Tail magazine." Mira looked at Elsa's armor-wrapped chest and smiled evilly.
"Roar, roar, roar! Photo album! Elsa and Mira, we agreed! Macao and a large group of male guild members roared excitedly, white gas coming out of their nostrils.
"It's a wicked bet, but since it's a magic test, then I accept it." Elsa said earnestly, and even conjured a sword to take the oath.
"Yes, yes! Mr. Yajma, please don't let them through! The bad uncles collectively bowed deeply to the examiner.
Mr. Yajma, who had not spoken, finally coughed lightly, and in an instant, the noisy hall was silent, and Natsu, who was half a beat slow to react, also chose to shut up after Elsa and Mira slapped each other.
"The rules of this assessment are not the same as in previous years, although the number of places in the competition still needs to be competitive, but this promotion, there is no quota limit!"
As soon as these words came out, the hall boiled again, especially those simple-minded guys, one by one, happily as if they were participating in the celebration, and those who didn't know thought that they had become S-class magicians.
Renault lowered his head and smiled lightly, poor babies, don't you hear the sound, there is no quota limit for promotion, that is, this number is uncertain, then, it may be "0"!
Compared to the exam, which is cruel but has definite standards, this kind of assessment is quite subjective, and it will be more difficult to say anything, I don't know what you are happy about.
Sure enough, Mr. Yajma spoke again: "In order to better reflect your strength, will, and adaptability in the assessment, the people who participated in the assessment this time must not only complete the task as before, but also deal with the sniping of 'X'. ”
X?
Apparently no one had ever heard of this mysterious word.
The old man Yajima smiled: "The so-called 'X' is an unknown enemy, we will discharge manpower to block you in the assessment, once we succeed in the sneak attack, it will affect your promotion, so, even if you are on the way to the assessment, don't let your guard down, because the attack of the mysterious enemy, but there is no warning." ”
"I see," Elsa nodded seriously, "The ability to deal with emergencies at any time, worthy of being a reviewer, is really thoughtful, so the assessment is much more difficult." ”
"Cut, what a mysterious 'X', although let the horse come, but say in advance, Miss Ben is not responsible for being injured!" Miramo shook his fists, and it looked as if he was planning to attack the mysterious man in turn.
"As for the candidates for blocking, I can reveal some of it to you now, you can refer to it." With an inexplicable smile, the old man Yajima introduced to everyone:
"First of all, Kildas."
The red-haired uncle who had been standing beside the president scratched his head embarrassedly and greeted everyone: "Yo, come on~"
Below, there was a wail: "What, it's Kildas?" That's an exaggeration. ”
Mr. Yajma didn't care about the feelings of the audience in the slightest, and continued: "Second place: Lagerthas! ”
As soon as the words fell, the Thunder Wizard, dressed in a robe and wearing large headphones, also appeared, and he looked like he ignored everyone, standing there with his feet crossed.
The "third ......" Yajma and Chairman Makarov had a meaningful smile on their faces at the same time, and this smile made a cold sweat break out on Renault's back.
"Damn, shouldn't it ......?"
As expected, after a pause in confusion, President Makarov said word for word:
"The third one, our external consultant, Renault!"
?
!
Everyone was stunned for two seconds, and then there was an uproar!
