Chapter 24 Surprises in Magazines
Chapter 24 Surprises in Magazines
”Another ad of this kind, so annoying.”
Laki’s attitude towards this kind of ad is similar to Rhode’s attitude towards software splash ads before. It’s fresh at first, but he gets tired of it after seeing it too much.
She said mysteriously: “Turn a few more pages, there’s a surprise~”
”Surprise?” Rhode turned the pages as he was told, and the column behind the ad was exactly the news column he wanted to see.
The surprise that Luqi was talking about was obviously not this, but Rhode still glanced at it.
”The boyfriend of the popular actress of Ryder Entertainment Company is exposed”
It’s said to be exposed, but it’s actually just a photo of the two of them from behind. Rhode doesn’t know the popular actress, but he thinks the rumored boyfriend looks like a handsome guy in the guild.
“The Council decided to increase the crackdown on dark guilds.”
It looked like an official article, but it had nothing to do with Rhode. He had asked indirectly, and Fairy Tail was really not a dark guild.
”Fairy Tail Wizards wiped out the Bandit Bandits in one fell swoop.”
The title was normal, but there seemed to be a sentence in the content: “The bandits were extremely vicious, and the battle was so fierce that the pine forest on the mountainside was burned to ashes.”
Laki said this was a magazine from a few weeks ago, and Rhode was too lazy to guess who did it.
After flipping through the news column, Rhode finally saw the surprise that Laqi mentioned.
”This, this, this… isn’t this…”
Isn’t this Mira? That iconic white hair, the hairstyle is the same as now, the bangs are tied into a bunch and combed on the top of the head.
The smile is different from what he has seen, more charming than usual.
The key point is that Mira in the photo is wearing a sea-blue swimsuit, standing naturally on a beach, holding her hair with one hand.
There is not much fabric on the upper body, which is the type that Rhode can’t tell whether it is underwear or not.
Even if you try to move your eyes away from the place with strong gravity, you will be attracted by the smooth shoulders and delicate collarbones.
The lower body is a high-slit long skirt, or simply a large piece of cloth tied randomly, hanging diagonally on the waist, showing off the waist that is enough to make countless girls envy.
Mira’s right leg is completely covered by the long skirt, and the left leg is exposed to the air through the slit of the long skirt.
——Rhode knew for the first time that Mira’s emblem is white and printed on the side of her left thigh.
”Is it beautiful? Are you stunned?”
”Hmm… Hmm?” Rhode nodded subconsciously at first, and then shook his head in denial when he felt something was wrong.
But I still feel it’s wrong. It’s really against my will to say Mira is not pretty.
”Really?” Laqi looked regretful.
”I have weekly Sosara from the past year, and more than 20 of them have photos of Mira…Does Rhode really not want to see it?”
”No…” Rhode said no because of shame, but he always felt that he would regret it if he refused.
He looked tangled: “I just want to learn more about the situation here, so I want to borrow the magazine. After you asked me like this, it feels weird whether I borrow it or not!”
”Hahaha…” Laqi couldn’t help laughing, covering her waist with one hand and patting the counter with the other hand, “Just like Kana said, Rhode’s reaction is so funny!”
Different from the completely stupid Natsu, and also different from the thick-skinned uncles like Makao and Wakaba.
Only people like Rhode who know what they should know but are very shy are interesting to tease.
“Kana…” Rhode thought of the alcoholic ‘bad woman’…
Although Mira said she was a good person, Rhode wanted to take notes.
Laki laughed for a long time, and finally stopped when Rhode wanted to run away: ”Sis Mira received the invitation to be Sosara’s special model last year, and she was very popular since the first photo shoot.”
”Sis Mira has appeared on magazine covers more times than them.” Laqi pointed to the boy band on the cover,
”Now, she should be the best cover girl among all the wizards in Fiore, and the signature girl of our guild.”
So she is a poster girl… Rhode felt that he seemed to have figured out Mira’s position: “Mira is also very powerful.”
Fairy Tail is really full of hidden talents. Those who can fight like S-class wizards are particularly good at fighting, and those who can’t fight like Mira are also very famous in other fields.
It seems that the reason why Fairy Tail can becomeIt is one of the most famous guilds in the country, not only because of its outstanding ability to cause trouble.
…
Although he was slightly tricked, Rhode finally borrowed the magazine.
The price of the weekly Soshara is 300J.
It is roughly equivalent to two cups of the cheapest beer. If the weekly magazine is published once a week, Rhode can afford it.
It is a bit troublesome to buy the previous issues of the magazine. It is better to borrow others and buy the future ones by yourself.
Laki has promised to bring it over tomorrow. In her words, it is useless to put it away anyway, and it can make room for one more collection.
She seems to have a grudge against this magazine.
Because Soshara claims to introduce the latest high-quality magic products on the market, but her favorite torture instruments have never been seen in the magazine.
”Well, it’s too much. It’s simply false propaganda.” Seeing that she borrowed his things, Rhode decided to agree.
“That’s right, false advertising.” With Rhode’s ‘support’, Laqi completely determined that it was the publisher’s fault, and clenched her fist, “I will accuse them in the opinion survey of this week’s magazine!”
Looking at the other party’s serious look, Rhode felt that he might have said something wrong:
“Well… how about you be more decisive?”
“Decisive?” Laqi thought about it and nodded heavily, “Yes, decisive, let them understand my attitude!”
Did I say something wrong again? ——
“Well, I just tried it when I was invited by chance, and later it was difficult to refuse.”
Mira herself was not very interested in being a model, but she didn’t have any objection.
After all, she and Elfman lost their sister last year, so for quite a long time, both of them were immersed in grief.
It was even almost impossible to do any magician’s work.
If it weren’t for the income from the photo shoot and the little savings they had before, the siblings might have been in debt like Rhode.
It was precisely because of this that Mira didn’t want to refuse the invitation from the magazine, even though she didn’t really need the income now.
”Let’s not talk about that for now. How’s your practice, Rhode?”
”Not bad. I feel like I can try to summon new monsters in a few days.”
”Monsters?”
Rhode nodded: “Yeah, it’s a general term for my summons.”
Is Poro considered a monster? It’s almost the same anyway.
”Then do you want to find someone to try actual combat?”
”Actual combat? With whom?”
”Well…” Mira pointed her finger at her chin, ”You also know that there are many militants in the guild. Just find one. If it’s your first time, just choose the one you hate the most.”
Based on Mira’s sinister personality, Rhode suspected that she was trying to make trouble.
But it doesn’t matter. It’s not good to practice alone. He pointed at a handsome guy in the tavern and said, “The one I dislike the most is him! Loki!”
”Ah?” Loki, who had just been fed a sip of wine by a beautiful woman not far away, looked up in confusion.
Mirajane’s photo… Find it yourself. Even illustrations won’t pass the review
