In this chapter, we learn that laxus is in the "braf group" and that he has a key code of four. He is going to get rid of Erza and the phantom chick. He tells the others to go and finish the fairy hunting. He says that he doesn't care if either of them are in his tail, as long as they're not guild mates. He's going to show them his true power. Now is the time, he says, when they can show him their true power, but make sure that they don't get killed. He also says that they have to get people out of the thunder palace so that the festival can go on without a hitch. He adds that he's heard that the "Cobra loving queen" tricked him into believing that they were going to murder him, but he can't figure out how she tricked him. They're in a rough game right now, and he'll be the master by the time the game ends. He asks her to open the gate to the horse palace, but she refuses to do so, saying that she's about to be "sacrificially" to laxus
