Chapter 5



The next day, in the morning... "Dong Dong Dong --!" Noah, who was still in sleep, was suddenly awakened by a huge knock on the door. Before he could fully react, he heard Gray's cry. "Hello! Noah! Are you awake? " Noah frowned as he looked at his door, which had been pounded so much. Although gray is really not the kind of person who will consider not disturbing people's dreams, he usually calls Noah with this kind of rude and forceful knocking on the door, but Noah feels that today's Gray's knocking on the door is not only much stronger, but also anxious. Is something wrong? This question just appeared in Noah's mind, outside the door, Gray's voice told him the answer. "You fellow! This is not the time to sleep! There's a lot of fun down here! Get up …… Noah, who came down from upstairs with gray in a hurry, had just arrived on the first floor and found that the situation in the guild today was different from that in the past. The excitement was as lively as ever, but the members of the guild gathered around the entrustment column where the task list was posted and surrounded the front of the entrustment column. "Is that the task again?" "It's really hard for the client. Clearly, this task is so unpopular..." "I don't think so. Don't you think the reward after the task is completed is much higher than before?" "That's what I said..." In addition to these remarks, on the bar of the guild, an old man with crutches in his hand, dressed like a clown, with a stature as small as ordinary children, but looking extremely old, also sat there, drinking casually, in sharp contrast to the members of the guild. However, looking at the little old man sitting on the bar table, Noah showed a trace of joy. "Grandfather This man is the chairman of fairytail guild, Makarov dolea! "Well?" Makarov's drinking action slightly stopped, his eyes turned to the direction of the stairs, looking at Noah standing there, his face also showed a trace of peaceful expression, smile eyes are narrowed. "Is it Noah? Are you up yet? " "Grandfather Noah trotted to Makarov. "You haven't been to the guild for days!" "Just get together with a few friends, don't worry!" Makarov touched his head and laughed. "I'm so sorry!" "Old man!" Gray also came to Noah's side, but looking at the direction of the busy Commission column, he asked curiously. "What happened? Why do people seem to be so noisy? " "Let them make trouble first." Makarov glanced in the direction of the Commission bar and continued to drink. "You'll find out later, anyway!" "It will take a long time for everyone in the guild to calm down." Noah said helplessly. "So, grandfather, you'd better explain it first." "That's what I said..." Knowing how noisy the members of his guild were, Makarov also had no choice but to knock on the head, jump off the bar and walk in the direction of the Commission bar. "All right! Calm down for me As soon as Makarov's voice fell, the noisy guild immediately became quiet. The guild members in front of the entrustment column also consciously separated, making way for Makarov to pass. It was not until he came to the front of the Commission bar that Makarov turned around and faced everyone in the guild. He held up his crutch and pointed to a striking order posted in the center of the Commission column. Noah saw the words on the order clearly and read them out. "Lake of rites?" As soon as Noah read it out, he saw Gray on one side, and suddenly asked. "What is the ritual lake?" "You don't know?" Gray was stunned, then nodded. "Yes, you've only been in fairytail for a year." "What's the matter?" Noah asked curiously. "Is it because of this ritual lake that everyone makes such a fuss?""The lake of rites is a famous lake of wishing!" Seeing Noah really didn't know, gray explained. "It is said that if you make a wish in the lake of ceremony, with the witness of the lake of ceremony, the spirit of the lake will realize the wish of the person who makes the wish and make the dream come true!" "Dreams come true?" Noah lost most of his interest. "It's impossible to hear that, isn't it?" "Well, as a matter of fact, not only you, but many people just regard it as a rumor, and have never heard of anyone who makes a wish there. Then the spirit of the lake appears and realizes this man's wish." Gray put on a show. "But there was a man who made a wish on the lake of rites and realized it!" With that, gray looked at Noah. "The Senate, you know?" Hearing this, Noah raised his eyebrows. The so-called Senate is an organization in the kingdom of Fiore responsible for maintaining order in the magic world. This organization is composed of a speaker and eight members of Parliament. Its main task is to monitor the actions of various wizard associations, punish those who violate the rules of the Senate, and hunt down dark guilds that harm the magic world. In the kingdom of Fiore, only the guild recognized by the Senate can be regarded as a regular guild, and the guild of demons approved by the Senate must abide by the treaty made by the Senate, or it will be forced to dissolve, which is equivalent to the supervisor of all regular guilds in the kingdom of Fiore. "It is said that the first speaker of the Council made his wish to form the Council in the lake of rites." Said gray, curling his mouth. "Although it's really good that the speaker was able to set up the Council, since the speaker made a wish to form the Council in the lake of rites before the establishment of the Council, and successfully established the Council, the lake of Rites has become the holy land of the Senate!" "Coincidentally, the ritual lake is also a very strange lake. Once you inject a lot of magic into it, the lake will start to shine!" Gray cast his eyes on Noah, who was thoughtful. "As a result, I don't know when the Council will be filled with rumors that if the lake of rites is not kept shining, the original wish to form the Council will be invalid and the Council will be dissolved. Therefore, the Council will issue a commission to a famous guild every year to let people go to the ritual lake and inject magic power into it." "So, is that the mandate issued by the Senate?" Noah looked at the order sheet posted in the center of the Commission column and asked in some doubt. "But why do people seem to be so reluctant about this commission?" "Because if you want to make the ritual lake shine, the magic that needs to be injected is extremely huge. At least dozens of magic guides are required to go together to complete it. In this way, the remuneration of the Commission needs to be divided into dozens of shares, so that everyone can get a small amount of money!" Gray picked up his arm. "Who will wait to see a task like this, even if it is issued by the Senate?" "However, those bastards in the Senate demanded that the guild that received the commission must complete the task within one month, and this year it is our fairytail's turn to accept the commission!" Standing in front of the Commission column, Makarov's tone was rather grouchy. "Although I'd like to push it off, those guys will definitely take this opportunity to trip me up, so let's finish the task as soon as possible." Hearing Makarov's words, the members of the guild immediately looked at each other. "Finish the task..." "Who would like to go for such a low reward?" "Yeah..." In the face of the whispers of the guild members, Makarov was not surprised. He knocked on his crutch and said. "You don't have to worry about this. I've made up my mind!" With these words, Makarov raised his head and looked straight at Noah standing in front of the bar. "This task, Noah, is up to you." www.mylovenovel.com , the fastest update of the webnovel!
