With the successful promotion of Elusa to an S-rank Magic Shooter, the S-rank Magic Shooter assessment for this year also came to an end. Elusa also finally ascended to the second floor of Fairy's Tail with dignity.
She had a calm and steady personality. Although she had successfully promoted to S-rank, she was not overly arrogant and did not start to come into contact with S-rank missions early. Instead, she listened to Makarov's reminder and spent most of her time only taking on missions that were not S-rank and had relatively higher rewards.
Only when she felt the need to train herself and formed a team with her companions would she take on S-rank missions. Of course, the process was arduous, but in the end, it was all completed.
One year.
In just one year, Elusa had completely stabilized her reputation as an S-rank Magic Shooter. She had gained the admiration of those in the guild and the respect of those outside the guild.
On this day, almost a year later, an old man with a walking stick staggered into the Fairy's Tail Guild with some difficulty.
He came to the counter and looked at Makarov with one eye. He took out a commission form from his pocket with some difficulty and handed it to Makarov.
"…"
Makarov's gaze was a little dignified. He reached out and took the commission form. After glancing at it, his eyes widened slightly and his forehead overflowed with cold sweat.
"Oh … This is …"
Surprisingly, there was a unique mark on the letter of entrustment.
Hundred Year Mission:
Expedition to Spirit Peak Zonya!
The so-called hundred-year mission was a mission that no one could complete in a hundred years. In the entire magic world, there were very few missions that no one could complete in a hundred years, or it could be said that there were only a few. Every mission even had a certain degree of fame!
These were missions that could not be completed in a hundred years. Countless Magic Shooters had failed and even lost their lives. They were the most dangerous missions in the world!
Of course.
The reward was also the highest!
In addition to the extremely high reward, such a mission, once completed, the Magic Shooter would immediately become famous in the magic world. Even the reputation of his guild would be greatly shaken.
Think about it, a guild that could complete a 'Hundred Year Mission', what kind of mission could not be completed?
Once completed, the number of missions received by the entire guild would skyrocket.
More commissions meant more work, more money, and a better life for all the Magic Shooters in the guild.
"Someone else failed again …"
"I … will … hand it … over to you …"
The old man with a walking stick said with difficulty.
Cold sweat trickled down Makarov's forehead. He was well aware of the difficulty of a hundred-year mission. Even a sorcerer of the Ten Great Saint Magi would face great danger and pressure.
He looked at the old man in front of him and said in a deep voice, "We can post this mission here, but I can't guarantee that someone will accept it."
"…"
The old man looked at Makarov dejectedly. "You … are the Fairy's tail, this request is …"
Makarov said in a low voice, "This is a century-long mission, not just anyone can complete it. I heard that three years ago, there was a very powerful sorcerer who took it on, but still failed."
The old man with the walking stick remained silent.
At this moment, a hearty voice sounded from the side.
"Guild Master, what are you holding? Let me see."
Kildas walked in boldly with a cloak draped over his shoulders. He went to the counter and ordered a glass of wine while tilting his head to look at the mission slip in Makarov's hand.
Makarov did not refuse. He closed his eyes and handed the mission slip over.
"Oh, a century-long mission, Expedition to Spirit Peak …"
Kildas took the mission slip, and his hearty expression gradually turned serious. He stared at the mission slip, and after a while, he thought of something and finally made a decision. "It seems that the last person failed again, and this mission has appeared again. Guild Master, if that's the case, why don't I give it a try?"
The old man with the cane and Makarov looked at Kildas together. Even some of the Magic Shooters next to the guild stopped what they were doing and looked at Kildas in shock.
"Are you serious?"
Makarov looked dignified and said to Kildas in a deep voice, "This is a century-long mission from Spirit Peak Chonia!"
Kildas snorted with a serious expression and said, "I've never been careless, Guild Master. Recently, I've felt that I've reached a bottleneck. I want to break through this bottleneck, and this mission may be the best test for me."
"Kildas?"
Naz stopped swinging his fist at Gray.
Gray also looked over with cold sweat on his forehead and said, "Kildas … Are you going to take on a century-long mission?"
Although they could not go up to the second floor, they had heard of the highest level and the most difficult century-long mission, which was above the SSS-level mission.
"Yo, I'm burning up!"
Flames spewed out of Naz's mouth and he looked very excited.
Gray glanced at Naz and said, "Idiot, that kind of mission is very dangerous!"
The news that Kildas was going to take on a century-long mission quickly spread throughout the guild. Everyone in the guild could not help but gather and look at Kildas nervously and excitedly.
Some people felt that this kind of mission was extremely difficult and dangerous, but some people felt that this kind of mission could only be completed by a powerful Archmage like Kildas!
After all, Kildas was one of the strongest Archmages in the guild, second only to Maples!
"Have you made up your mind?"
Makarov looked at Kildas.
Kildas lowered his head and looked at the mission list and said, "Yes, I've made up my mind."
Then, he put the mission list in his pocket and stood up. He looked into the distance and said, "But before I go on this mission, I have one more thing to do."
"You want to …"
Makarov was slightly startled and then quickly thought of something.
Kildas snorted and grinned. His eyes showed a touch of conviction and said, "Yes, I want to go and challenge that guy Maples!"
"I've been training for this year, so I have to beat him before I leave!"
Along with his words.
The guild was silent at first.
Then, there was a burst of shouts as if the whole roof was going to be overturned.
"Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh!!!!"
The earliest S-level Archmage in the guild, Kildas … was going to challenge Maples!
This was a competition for the title of 'strongest'!
