Chapter 38

"That's too much! They don't even take us seriously!"

"Who are they? We have to teach that guy a lesson!"

Then, they immediately revealed a fierce expression.

Looking like they were about to use force to make others back down.

"..."

Seeing the two acting like this.

Levy was a little speechless, but also found it a bit funny.

Then, she extended her index finger and pointed at the man sitting at the bar.

"Sumo and I have agreed that he will come to me tomorrow to learn Letter Magic."

"Looking at you two, don't tell me you want to challenge Sumo?"

When she said the last sentence, the expression on Levy's face seemed slightly mischievous.

Although her personality has always been gentle, she also has a bit of a dark side.

And after hearing Levy's words.

Salusuke and Droy couldn't help but turn their attention to Sumo.

Then.

"Gulp!"

The two swallowed a mouthful of saliva in unison.

They looked at each other, their legs a little weak.

"It's actually Sumo, that tyrant?"

"If we go to challenge him, we'll be beaten to death, right?"

The two immediately panicked.

In fact, they were just saying angry words before.

As members of the Fairy Tail Guild, they would naturally not do such petty gangster-like things.

They just said that to show their so-called masculine spirit, just to show off a little.

Obviously, they didn't know that this kind of low-level, gangster-style showing off seemed very LOW to Levy, a literary girl, and was completely negative.

Moreover, after learning that the person who made an appointment with Levy was Sumo.

They didn't even dare to show off.

Speaking of the terrifying figures in the guild.

Sumo's terrifying degree is above Erza and Laxus, a veritable tyrant.

Being beaten to death is naturally an exaggeration.

In fact, Sumo's personality is quite good, and he is a very reliable guy as a companion.

The two of them also quite recognized Sumo.

They even felt that he was the only candidate for the next generation of guild master.

However, when it comes to actively opposing him.

Salusuke and Droy completely chickened out, they would rather be scolded by Erza for a day than provoke Sumo.

This guy is almost an invincible backing as a companion.

But, if he becomes an enemy.

Then he really deserves the title of "tyrant".

053 Give the Simp a Crushing Hammer

"Levy, I suddenly remembered that I seem to have diarrhea tomorrow, so I can't invite you."

"Me too, I'm going back to my hometown tomorrow, so I probably can't invite you either."

Losing the battle but not the war.

Salusuke and Droy immediately found two excuses that made people want to complain.

Then, they retreated their invitations in embarrassment.

This kind of behavior of not daring to admit failure and subconsciously looking for excuses.

Made Levy even more disappointed in them.

"...You guys are so lame!"

Wakaba, who saw the whole scene, couldn't help but complain.

Even he could see that these two people had absolutely no chance.

Chickening out at the critical moment, what girl would like this type?

Moreover, they didn't admit defeat decisively.

They also deliberately looked for excuses to give themselves a way out.

Little did they know that doing so would have the opposite effect.

And would make people look down on them even more.

Hearing Uncle Wakaba's words, Salusuke and Droy also showed helpless expressions.

"That's Sumo! Not to mention challenging him, even if we spar, we'll be instantly killed, right?"

They are very clear about their own strength.

"That's true."

Wakaba also admitted this point.

He himself is a veteran A-level mage in the Fairy Tail Guild, but he can still see the strength of the new generation clearly.

Sumo, the number one person in the younger generation, is a proper veteran S-class mage.

Not to mention these two people, even if Natsu and Gray, the most promising people in the guild, go together.

It is estimated that they will be instantly killed.

Salusuke and Droy have no chance of winning the challenge at all.

"So, are you going to give up?"

Wakaba asked curiously.

"Of course not!"

"Absolutely impossible!"

Salusuke and Droy immediately shook their heads.

"Huh?"

Wakaba was a little puzzled.

"Why don't you give up? Don't tell me you think you can beat Sumo?"

He was really curious.

Wakaba's drinking buddy next to him, Macao, who also belongs to the uncle generation of the Fairy Tail Guild, also looked over curiously.

He also didn't understand where these two people got their confidence from.

Only to see Salusuke and Droy say with confident faces.

"As rivals in love, we have carefully observed Sumo."

"Then, we have come to many reliable conclusions."

"Whether it's Erza or Mirajane, they all seem to have a special affection for Sumo, their relationship is exceptionally good."

"Besides, Lisanna has also been Haunt Sumo, and she seems to like him very much."

"With so many girls staring at him, Sumo can't possibly have the energy to chase Levy!"

Salusuke firmly believed in his conclusion.

Then, Droy continued to add.

"We have paid attention to the number of times Sumo chats with Levy, which is much less than the number of times he chats with Mirajane."

"Compared to chatting with Levy, Sumo prefers to study his own magic."

"So, there will definitely be no feelings between them!"

"Even if the two of them are together tomorrow, it must be just purely learning Letter Magic, there is absolutely no possibility of developing into a relationship!"

The two announced their conclusions with confident faces.

After hearing this "strict" reasoning.

Wakaba and Macao couldn't help but look at each other.

After hesitating for a moment, Wakaba used a tactful tone that would not hurt them.

"I think you… …Did you ignore one thing."

"Sumo didn't chase Levy, this phenomenon is indeed correct."

"However, there is still a phenomenon in this world called reverse pursuit—that is, girls actively chasing boys."

"You only considered that Sumo didn't chase Levy."

"Did you forget that Levy might also reverse chase Sumo?"

As soon as Wakaba's words came out.

Salusuke and Droy were dumbfounded.

How, how is that possible!

How could Levy actively chase a man?!

That's their goddess!

Just as their minds were somewhat shaken.

Macao's next words dealt them a heavy blow.

"Speaking of which, although Sumo looks for Levy very few times, Levy actively looks for Sumo many times."

"Moreover, until now, Levy has not accepted your two invitations once."

"But Levy has accepted Sumo's invitations every time."

"Even, many times, Levy took the initiative to propose it."

"Like this time, Levy also took the initiative to propose that she could help Sumo learn Letter Magic."

"No matter how you look at it, it looks like Levy is actively looking for Sumo!"

As soon as he said these words.

Salusuke and Droy's figures suddenly turned pale, and they froze in place as if petrified.

"How, how could it be?!"

"Levy would never actively chase a man!"

They subconsciously didn't want to admit this possibility.

"Even if it's Sumo, he's just a little more handsome than us, a little stronger, and then a little smarter… …He's just stronger in all aspects."

"Yes, just, just has this little advantage!"

The two stuttered.

To this, Macao couldn't help but complain.

"You call this a little stronger?"
