In a steamy, hot bath, three figures were present.
These three were none other than Erza, Lucy, and Wendy.
"After a day's work, a soak in the bath feels so comfortable!"
Lucy, leaning against the bath wall, relaxed completely and spoke with an expression of enjoyment.
Wendy, with just her head above water, also said contentedly: "It really does!"
As soon as Wendy finished speaking, the cat girl Millianna suddenly pounced into the bath from the edge: "Erza, here I come!"
"Wait..."
Seeing Millianna pounce directly, Erza was startled and hurriedly tried to stop her.
But before Erza could finish, Millianna's body had already landed in the bath.
Splash-
For a moment, water splashed everywhere, and the briefly rising water level completely submerged the heads of Wendy and Lucy.
"She's really full of energy!"
Wendy emerged from the water, looked at Millianna, and said with a wry smile.
"Millianna, what are you doing? Don't disturb others!"
At that moment, Kagura's voice came from the bathroom.
Hearing Kagura's scolding, Millianna scratched her head and said without a hint of apology: "Sorry, sorry, I was just too happy!"
Wendy glanced at the approaching Kagura. At first, she didn't pay much attention, but suddenly, her gaze fell on Kagura's impressive bust.
At that moment, Wendy was startled.
During the day, Kagura wore a white formal suit, so it didn't seem very obvious then.
But now, after shedding that suit, Wendy realized Kagura was much more well-endowed than she had imagined.
Then, Wendy involuntarily shifted her gaze to Lucy and Erza.
Upon discovering that neither Lucy nor Erza lost out to Kagura in that department, Wendy felt as if struck by lightning.
"Hmm? Wendy, what's wrong?"
Seeing Wendy's strange expression, Lucy, who was beside her, casually asked.
Wendy's little face instantly turned bright red. She shook her head, then her head gurgled and sank beneath the water.
Kenichi could naturally hear the boisterous sounds from the bathroom clearly.
He smiled and shook his head, then turned his gaze to the full moon in the sky.
Kenichi stared intently at the full moon, when suddenly, the figure of a black dragon appeared superimposed on it.
This black dragon was naturally the Acnologia of Kenichi's imagination.
From what Kenichi knew, Acnologia would also go to Tenrou Island during this S-Class Mage promotion trial.
Of course, Kenichi wasn't afraid of Acnologia.
He was just thinking about when he, like Acnologia, would turn into a dragon.
All Dragon Slayers eventually turn into dragons.
Acnologia was like that.
Irene was also like that.
Unless there was a dragon inside helping to suppress it.
Kenichi was now also considered a Dragon Slayer, and one who had fused several attributes at that.
In Kenichi's view, his dragonification was only a matter of time.
Kenichi didn't think dragonification was necessarily bad.
The key point was that he still didn't know how to turn back into a human after becoming a dragon.
Both Irene and Acnologia could freely switch between human and dragon forms.
Kenichi could probably find the method to switch forms from them.
It's just that neither of them was easy to deal with.
Finally, Kenichi set his sights on Elefseria.
Elefseria was the client for the 100 Years Quest and also a member of Guiltina's mage guild, Magia Dragon.
Like Acnologia and Irene, he could freely switch between human and dragon forms.
Compared to Irene and Acnologia, Elefseria was much easier to deal with.
'After the S-Class Mage promotion trial ends, I'll make a trip to the Magia Dragon Guild. It'll be a good chance to collect the attributes of the Five Dragon Gods!'
In Kenichi's view, if he collected the Magic, Magic Power, and combat power attributes of the Five Dragon Gods, by the time he returned, he was confident he could defeat even Acnologia.
Just as Kenichi was thinking this, a familiar female voice suddenly came from behind.
'Thinking about the S-Class Mage promotion trial?'
Hearing this, Kenichi turned around and saw Erza standing gracefully before him.
At this moment, Erza had shed the silver-white armor from the day and changed into loose sleepwear.
Perhaps because she had just bathed, there was a faint blush on her fair, pretty face.
Set against the moonlight, Erza actually gave off a captivating feeling.
Perhaps he was too used to Erza's heroic, imposing appearance, but seeing Erza in this rare state, Kenichi was briefly mesmerized.
"Something like that."
Kenichi leaned against the railing and replied while looking at Erza.
"Master has seen your performance. Although only eight can take the exam, you're definitely one of them. And with your strength, passing this exam shouldn't be difficult. You don't need to worry at all."
Thinking that Kenichi was worried about failing the S-Class Mage exam, Erza offered these words of comfort.
However, in reality, Kenichi wasn't thinking about the S-Class Mage exam itself.
He was thinking about Acnologia and Grimoire Heart.
"Oh oh, so you're here!"
Just as Kenichi was about to speak, Millianna pushed Kagura towards them.
Hearing Millianna, Kenichi looked up and saw Kagura dressed in a gray gown, looking quite different from her usual cool, aloof self.
"Stop it, Millianna!"
Seeing Kenichi's gaze upon her, Kagura said to Millianna with a somewhat unnatural expression.
After all, it was her first time wearing such flashy clothes.
If Millianna hadn't talked her into it, she would never have worn it.
"It's fine, it's fine!"
Millianna smiled and reassured her, then pulled Kagura in front of Kenichi.
"So, what do you think? I picked this outfit for Kagura!"
Millianna asked Kenichi proudly.
Hearing Millianna's words, Kagura looked at Kenichi with evasive eyes.
Her feelings were very complex at this moment.
There was anticipation.
There was also shyness.
"It suits you, very pretty."
Kenichi appraised Kagura and then said.
Hearing Kenichi's words, Kagura maintained her composure on the surface, but inwardly she was delighted.
Meanwhile, Erza beside them had a flash of inspiration.
"Requip!"
She directly activated her Requip Magic, and in the next second, her sleepwear was replaced by a black gown.
"Kenichi, how do I look in this?"
"Uh..."
At the same time, Lucy emerged from the bathroom, saw this scene, and said in confusion: "What's going on? A fashion show?"
