Chapter 17 Fairy Queen
Chapter 17 Fairy Queen
Today at noon, the tavern was even more noisy than yesterday.
The main reason was that Natsu had returned from his mission, and Gray hadn’t left yet.
The two men were originally ten meters apart, but suddenly their eyes met and they started arguing for no apparent reason.
Natsu yelled “droopy eyes” and “ice bastard”.
Gray also yelled “hanging eyes” and “fire idiot”.
After no more than ten seconds, the two men’s foreheads touched each other, and then they fought.
These two guys were not as measured as Makao and Wakaba when they fought, and soon a stool leg flew out and hit Elfman on the back.
Elfman yelled “manly” and waved his fists to join the battle, but was soon knocked out by Natsu and Gray one by one.
The flying Elfman knocked over Kana’s table, and the bottle Kana threw hit a handsome guy’s head.
The handsome guy who was chatting with two beauties did not show any anger, but let go of the two beauties gracefully:
”Please wait a moment, I’ll go and get involved.”
Before leaving, he threw a wink, and the two beauties were electrified by his eyes and screamed to cheer him on.
The tavern became more and more chaotic, and one member after another was involved in the battle, even Lidas who was painting, Nabu who was looking at the task bar, and Levi’s team were not spared.
Mira, like before, was watching the excitement with a smile inside the counter.
Laki… is already fighting, this girl is not a pushover.
Rod decisively put the food he was about to deliver on the counter and stayed next to the drunken president.
Feel safe.
He focused on the various “battlefields” in the tavern, not to watch the excitement, but to avoid the unidentified flying props that might fly at any time.
Rod has been a veteran employee of Fairy Tail for two days. He must learn to protect himself when working in the guild.
Seeing the situation getting more and more intense, the melee is about to escalate into a magic battle, and Rod feels it is time to wake up the president to stop them.
This step seems to be a routine.
However, before he can act, the door of the guild opens with a bang, and the bright sunlight at noon shines in through the door, outlining a slender figure.
When Rod’s eyes gradually adapt to the sunlight, the figure has already walked in steadily.
She had long crimson hair and a delicate face that showed no emotion. Her black boots and blue skirt perfectly embellished her beautiful legs, but…
She was wearing a piece of metal armor, including shoulder armor, arm armor, and gauntlet.
If she had armor plates on her skirt and a sword in her hand, she would look like a female knight.
But at this moment, she was holding a three-meter-long rope. When she walked into the door, she could see that the rope was pulling a flatbed truck.
The truck was loaded with suitcases piled up like a mountain, taller than her.
She should be a tough guy. Rhode made such a judgment in his heart.
Then Rhode noticed her crimson hair and remembered what Mira had mentioned yesterday—Erusa!
As Erza pulled her luggage into the door, the noisy guild fell silent.
The people who were noisy just now seemed to be frozen as if the pause button was pressed, even though some people were still grabbing others’ collars or hair.
Mira smiled happily: “Welcome back, Erza!”
”Ah, I’m back.” Erza responded politely, then looked at the others, and her expression immediately became serious.
Everyone was silent, and only a few brave ones tried to talk: “Erza…Miss, is the mission going well?”
He even deliberately added honorifics.
”Don’t try to get away with it. I heard that you have caused a lot of trouble again!”
”Let’s not talk about those for now. Bijida, don’t dance on the table! Nabu, don’t just know how to hang around in front of the bulletin board, take a good commission! Wakaba, watch your cigarette ash! Kana…”
Erza came up and criticized a group of problem children and problem uncles by name, and those who broke the tables and chairs were severely reprimanded.
None of the people she named dared to talk back. Especially Natsu and Gray, the two guys who had just fought the most fiercely were now arm in arm, looking like they had a good relationship.
Erza nodded with satisfaction: “It’s good to get along well, but GrayLei, your clothes.”
”Ah? When?” Gray hurriedly found his pants and put them on.
However, Erza had not stopped: “President, they are drunk in broad daylight again, shouldn’t you restrain them a little?”
”What does it matter…” Makarov didn’t seem to be very sober, and was even burping.
Rod suddenly found that the tavern had returned to its normal state. The people who were fighting just now turned into normal drinking and chatting.
Natsu and Gray sat opposite each other, and they were still unconvinced when their eyes met, but once Erza’s eyes swept over, they would immediately clink glasses and laugh tacitly.
This is simply the dean of teaching.
At this time, Erza’s eyes fell on Rod, fortunately she was kind: “A new face, is it a new member, or a resident of Magnolia?”
Rod greeted politely: “Hello, I am Rod, I have just joined the guild for two days.
I heard Mira mention your bad deeds before, and they are well-known. ”
“Bad, bad deeds…” Erza seemed to have been hit by something, and looked at Mira in shock.
She only knew that Mira liked gossip, but she didn’t know that Mira would say bad things about people behind their backs.
“That’s not the case. There are some problems with Rhode’s common language…” Mira had a headache, and finally caused misunderstandings.
She explained how Rhode learned the language, and added,
“In short, Rhode is learning magic and common language, and is temporarily working as a waiter in the tavern.”
“So that’s it, I’m Erza.” Erza’s attitude towards new members is quite friendly,
“Since you have joined the guild, you are family. If you have any difficulties, you can come to me, and I will do my best to help you!”
When saying the word ‘with all my strength’, Erza clenched her fists, and her tone and expression were very serious.
“Ah… Thank you. “For a moment, Rod didn’t know whether he should be happy or not.
Good news, he became a ‘family’ with Erza from the protagonist group.
Bad news, Erza just dealt with a large group of ‘family’, and judging from her skilled appearance, it must not be her first time.
Erza sat in the guild for a while, had a drink, and then left with a luggage cart, saying that she had been out for too long and had to go back to clean the room and sort out the spoils.
Rod curiously asked Mira what Erza’s mission was.
But Mira said that the client requested confidentiality for the specific situation, and roughly helped a remote border town to deal with a difficult criminal gang.
”Erza dealt with dozens of criminals in one go~” Mira smiled, “How about it, our ‘Fairy Queen’ is very handsome, right?”
Rod nodded: “Well… very handsome. ”
To be fair, Erza is powerful and has a personality… She seems to be a rare serious person in the guild.
And her appearance is not worse than Mira’s. Rhode estimated that she is definitely the object of many people’s affection.
But… He dared not have any messy thoughts.
Because Mira had popularized Erza’s glorious achievements: For example, she beat Natsu who challenged her so hard that even Happy could not recognize him, beat Gray who was wandering naked and almost buried him, and beat Loki who pursued her until he was only left with one breath…
Rhode suddenly felt that the word “bad record” he used earlier seemed to be correct.
”Laki? What is that?”
Mira noticed that after Luki sent Erza out, she brought back a gift box that was more than one person tall.
”It’s a specialty that Erza brought back for me.”
Laki happily put down the red gift box with a thump, which sounded very heavy.
