Yep, everything was entirely mute there. The whole village is mute, Gildarts is mute, everything is mute basically. Well, I found the chapter rather unnecessary, especially the last part where some stranger shows Gildarts Fairy Tail's achievements in the Grand Magic Games. Mashima should just continue with the story line and not increase his chapter count with this transition chapter. We had one already.

Nonetheless, it great that he managed to do 300 chapters. We get to see a colored chapter cover after a long while.
