Chapter 384: 384. Meeting with Zeref

In a lively restaurant filled with the sound of young men celebrating, their laughter and voices blending with the clinking of glasses and plates, three individuals sat quietly in a corner. Tracy, Erza, and Ray Wiser appeared relaxed as they chatted amongst themselves.

The atmosphere at their table was warm, with laughter, shared smiles, and occasional bursts of excitement as they discussed the final assessment they had completed the day before.

"We fought Zeref hard. Erza attacked from long range, trying to keep her ice waves at bay, while I and some other participants attacked from the front. But our attacks just bounced back at us. It was strange. I attacked her many times, but every time my sword touched her, it was me who got blasted back, and she didn't even do anything," Tracy explained to Orion, recounting the battle after he left.
