Chapter 88 Laxus Returns (Ch 88)

Lucy asked curiously, “Why do you have to hide your appearance? Is he an idol like Anke?”

Anke shook his head and said vaguely: “No, I just don’t want people to see his face.”

“Also, besides me and the president, there is another person who has seen his true face…”

“Yes, I have seen it too.”

Before Anke could finish his words, a defiant voice rang out above everyone’s heads from upstairs.

Everyone was stunned, and then looked towards the second floor in disbelief.

I saw a young man wearing a black coat and a yellow spotted shirt leaning against the railing, with spiked headphones on his ears, his chin supported by his hand, and a frivolous smile on his face.

“Laxus…you’re back too.” Gray looked at the second floor and said in surprise.

Lucy tilted her head, remembering what everyone had told her before, about the true strength levels of the guild members.

Natsu and Gray are indeed very strong, basically far superior to all other members.

But in the guild, they are still not among the group of members vying for the strongest position in the guild, that is, the “strongest candidates.”

Among that group of strongest candidates were the two strongest women in Fairy Tail.

One is Erza, and Lucy already knew this.

But when she later learned that Mirajane was also a wizard of the same name, her jaw almost dropped to the ground.

Such a gentle Mirajane is actually one of the strongest women in Fairy Tail, and she also has the title of a demon…

Among boys, the competition is more intense.

Anke, Miston, and now Laxus in front of Lucy are all the strongest candidates.

The oppressive Laxus stood on the second floor, looking down at everyone. His domineering attitude seemed to show that he didn’t take anyone seriously.

“Miston Ge is very introverted. You’d better not disturb him.”

Laxus spoke lightly, staring at everyone with disdain, and suddenly said this.

Anke couldn’t help but curl the corners of his mouth.

Even though she suffered a small loss at the hands of Miston Ge, she is still helping him conceal his identity…

After all, he is still a dishonest guy.

When Natsu saw Laxus, he couldn’t help himself again. He jumped up and said, “Laxus, come and fight me!”

Everyone’s eyelids jumped.

You are really not afraid of death…Laxus’s personality is not Anke’s.

“I heard that you just challenged Anke and were killed instantly.”

Laxus glanced at Anke who was leisurely beside him, curled his lips and said, “Yeah, you’re lucky to be alive.”

Hearing this, everyone who knew Laxus’ temper thought it was normal, except Lucy who was stunned for a moment.

The tone seems different from before… It seems that Laxus and Anke have a good relationship.

“But.” Laxus glanced at Erza who was leaning against Anker, then changed the subject, stared at Natsu and said mockingly:

“You can’t even beat Erza, and you still want to challenge me?”

Erza’s face suddenly darkened, she stood up and shouted in a deep voice: “Laxus! What do you mean!”

Laxus suddenly raised his hands, his smile became more arrogant, and he said loudly:

“What I mean is, in this guild, I am the strongest!”

Laxus’ voice rang out in the hall like a loud bell, and everyone secretly looked at Anke…

Anke still sat in his seat calmly and didn’t say anything.

What? What’s there to say?

What can you argue with a rebellious kid…

Natsu didn’t want to listen to Laxus’s arrogant words, and couldn’t help but shout to the second floor: “You guy, come down and duel!”

Laxus looked at me with a look of “what can you do to me?” and sneered, “Come up if you have the guts!”

“Just what I want!”

Upon hearing this, the stubborn Natsu took two steps at a time and immediately stepped onto the bar, wanting to jump directly up, but before he could exert any strength, a huge shadow suddenly fell from the sky.

“Bang!”

Everyone’s throat rolled, and they looked at the huge fist smashing down from above in panic, and…

Natsu was pinned to the ground and fell to the ground again…

Makarov retracted his giant fist and said seriously: “You can’t go up to the second floor right now!”

“Ha ha ha ha!!”

Seeing Natsu being punched to the ground by Makarov, Laxus laughed even more unscrupulously. After the laughter ended, his deafening voice sounded again:

“I will never give up the throne of the strongest Fairy Tail!”

“Whether it’s Anke or Mistonge, it’s the same!!”

Anke glanced at Laxus calmly, and couldn’t help feeling a chill in his heart.

As time went by, Laxus’ outward personality became more and more distorted.

Even with Anker’s intervention, Laxus’ rebellious mentality would not completely disappear, at most it would be suppressed.

The guild civil war started by Laxus might happen again in the future, but that would not be the worst case scenario.

Anke didn’t dare to say that he had completely stopped the civil war, but he had already made a plan.

Simply put, civil war can be fought, but it cannot be held by Laxus under the threat of hostages.

In the original work, Laxus left the guild after the civil war, and Myston left the guild after the adventure in the other world. Fairy Tail’s top combat power suddenly became scarce and reached a low point.

Just imagine, if at the beginning of the battle on Tenrou Island, Laxus was there and Myston didn’t leave, and there were only the two of them, what would the Seven Followers of Purgatory have to do?

Anke ignored Laxus’s arrogant remarks, and after saying hello to the president, he planned to go home.

Before leaving, Anke said to Erza, “When you are done with the guild’s affairs, come to my house. I have something to ask you.”

Erza nodded and agreed.

Laxus was standing on the second floor, still provoking Natsu who was on the first floor. The scene looked quite humorous.

Laxus is not a cold and cruel person. To be honest, the affection he devotes to this guild is no less than any other member.

This young man… is actually very gentle, but his gentleness is a little clumsy and very obscure.

Those who are not attentive to life will never be able to feel Laxus’s imperceptible tenderness and protection.

It was for this reason that Anke decided to be friends with him and patiently helped Laxus correct his mistakes.

Anke returned to his manor home. As soon as he opened the door, the chubby maid came to greet him happily.

The fat maid bowed her head very respectfully and asked, “Master! You are back. What would you like to eat for dinner?”

Anke thought for a while and ordered: “Prepare more steak and seafood soup, Erza will be here soon… Oh, and strawberry cake.”

The fat maid nodded repeatedly, her eyes narrowed into slits due to smiling.

The master of this house is very generous and treats his servants very well. Of course, the fat maid and the others are willing to continue working here.

According to their observation, Miss Erza is one of the people they should serve best.

Although, he is the master’s sister…

But the fat maid couldn’t see any similarities between the two people…
