Chapter 41

【'Only one day?'】

【Listening to Natsu's confident statement, Igneel even felt that something was wrong with his ears.】

【But, just as he wanted to ask, he found that Natsu had already turned his back and was walking toward the depths of the primeval forest!】

【His back was straight, and his pace was not the slightest bit hesitant.】

【Just like what he said, living in the primeval forest for just one day was simply not enough to make Natsu afraid.】

【"This kid..."】

【Watching Natsu's departing back, Igneel muttered blankly.】

【But, immediately after, as if remembering something, a malicious smile hung on his ferocious mouth.】

【"Being too confident is not a good thing. It seems this trial is correct; I must let this kid know that there is always someone better, and mountains beyond mountains!"】

【Without any intention of staying, Igneel immediately flapped his wings.】

【His massive body soared into the sky until he disappeared into the clouds.】

Hades: "This kid, sure enough, is still the same; he is truly confident to the extreme."

Jose Porla: "After all, this is a genius who can learn complex Dragon Slayer Magic just by watching it once. It's understandable to be a bit confident."

"Back then, I also saw such a person, that jerk Jellal, who could learn the Self-Destruction Magic Circle just by looking at it once. They are all monsters."

Jellal: "Uh... although I'm happy you're praising me, this thing is different in difficulty, you better not raise me up."

Jose Porla: "Pfft! What am I raising you up for?"

"I just suddenly remembered it and spoke my mind. You were just as confident back then, but what happened? You were beaten to the point of losing your memory. If it weren't for me, you would have been finished long ago."

Jellal: "But, I'm still alive now, and you're already dead."

"If you keep blabbering, I might even scatter your ashes."

Laxus: "Oh? You're interested in dead people too?"

Jellal: "No, just venting my anger."

Laxus: "Coincidentally, I also want to scatter someone's ashes. Want to team up?"

Hades: "..."

Jose Porla: "..."

Mavis: "Pfft, that's enough, you guys. You're not bringing me along for such fun things?"

Makarov: "???"

Erza: "???"

Mirajane: "???"

Natsu: "???"

Hades: "??? Mavis, you..."

Hades was very depressed and speechless.

He had spent so many years in the first half of his life dedicated to reviving Mavis.

And the result?

In the end, Mavis actually wanted to scatter his ashes?

Mavis: "Just kidding, just kidding, haha. I was just easing the atmosphere; the viewing is still continuing."

Yes, reminded by Mavis, the people who were just bickering remembered that the viewing was still continuing.

So they turned their gazes to the sky screen one after another.

After a moment of silence, Jose Porla couldn't help but jump out and say:

"I'll put it here: being this confident will lead to trouble. You'll know when the Iron Dragon appears later. I've seen many people who are this confident and arrogant, but none of them had a good ending."
