Chapter 42 Offline? Natural?
Chapter 42 Offline? Natural?
The unlucky president often gets low-paying but high-difficulty tasks, and he can’t do everything himself, so he can only leave it to the children.
Originally, the most ideal candidate was Laxus, but his personality was really difficult to deal with.
So Erza, who has a strong sense of responsibility and sufficient strength, often stands up to solve these problems for the president.
Rod thought about it carefully. Erza’s ability to speak well in the guild may not only be due to her strength.
”Wait, wait!” Rod suddenly found a blind spot, “What does Erza mean by completing the task ahead of time just now… Is it what I imagined?”
Erza nodded: “It’s just a single challenge to the entire guild, no big deal.”
”…” Rod was silent, what a no big deal.
Could it be that the outside world is not as dangerous as he imagined? Rhode hesitated and said, “Isn’t it unsafe to do this?”
”Well, this hasty decision was a bit hasty.” Erza reflected on herself seriously, but immediately said,
”Because I was looking forward to the strawberry cake in this store, I couldn’t wait for the reinforcements. I will consider it carefully next time.”
”…”
Very good, because I was in a hurry to go home and eat cake, I single-handedly killed a dark guild, which was reasonable.
Mira was not surprised at all, this was indeed Erza’s style.
And she had read the information about the poisonous scorpion tail, and Erza could handle it completely.
The waiter quickly brought Erza’s order, and small plates filled the table.
Erza was immersed in the world of desserts, and from time to time she showed a cute expression that was completely different from usual.
Rhode secretly calculated: ’Erza defeated the entire dark guild, and I was defeated by Erza.
So my strength is about equal to that of a dark guild, with rigorous logic.
Hahaha, low-key, low-key. ’
After finishing his dessert, Rod amused himself.
Eluza pushed the strawberry cake she ordered in front of Mira and Rod: “Let’s eat together.”
Rod asked: “Don’t you like strawberry cake the most?”
”That’s why we have to share it. Sharing with companions will make it more delicious.” Erza said this with an intoxicated look on her face, and her tone was almost awesome.
”Since it’s Erza’s intention, then eat a little more.” Mira cut a small cake in half and gave it to Rod.
Then Erza felt something was wrong as she ate more: “Speaking of which, why did you two come here together… Is it… a date?”
Before Rod responded, Erza’s face turned red and she couldn’t speak clearly, “You, you… what, when are you getting married?”
”Puff…” Rod covered his mouth and almost sprayed coffee on her face, “You think too far!”
”No, isn’t it?”
”It’s just that Wakaba’s wife gave us two invitations.” Mira explained, and then held her face with one hand, saying with a little smirk, “Ah… but it seems that it can be counted as a date.”
”Date, date, date, date…” Erza continued to stutter.
Mira laughed even more happily: “Shy Erza is also very interesting, but it’s a pity that Rod doesn’t blush, so it’s not as fun as before.”
Rod breathed a sigh of relief. A month of experience made him thicker-skinned, or more receptive.
The most important thing is… when I went out today, it seemed that I had the attitude of treating a date.
Now that Mira said this in a teasing tone, I couldn’t be shy at all.
Then Rhode found that Erza was a bit innocent.
When he and Mira had already talked about the next topic, Erza was still confirming with Mira whether it was a joke.
After finally explaining it to Erza, and waiting for her to finish her snacks, the three of them left together. ”Please take care, welcome next time!”
The waiter at the door bowed politely, but Erza suddenly stopped and said to Mira and Rhode: “Wait for me.”
Rhode asked: “What’s wrong with her?”
Mira thought for a while: “Want to pack a few cakes to take back? Probably.”
A few minutes later, Erza returned, but her clothes had changed into the waitress uniform of this store.
Rhode didn’t understand the situation at all. A heroic female knight went in, and a soft female knight came out.Waiter?
Are you a real person? ”Welcome, two guests, what would you like to order?” Erza bowed slightly, made a gesture of invitation, then stood up and asked, “How is it?”
The girl in charge of welcoming guests has been fascinated by Erza.
”Very…” Rhodes’s words “very beautiful” got stuck in his throat, and he changed them to “very suitable for you.”
Mira smiled and clapped: “Very beautiful, why did you suddenly change into this?”
”Because I think this dress is very cute, I asked the boss if she could sell it to me.” Erza pulled the collar, ”Then she said it’s not for sale, but as long as I work here for half a day, she can give it to me.”
Rhodes was a little stunned: “…So you agreed?”
Eluza nodded as a matter of course: “Yes, so I have to start working. I’ll ask you to help take the luggage back to the guild first, right?”
”No…” Rhodes’ head was buzzing.
You are an S-class wizard, and you can earn millions for a mission. Are you selling yourself for an ordinary uniform?
Mira had no intention of stopping Erza. Instead, she encouraged Erza: “Come on, we will take care of the luggage.”
…
After all, it was Erza who took on everything. Not only did he have to pull the luggage cart, but he also had to carry Rhode and Mira.
”Don’t you understand Erza’s actions?”
Mira sat sideways, her legs together, her skirt tightly pressed together, like a mermaid.
”A little bit. Is her personality like this? She seems a little off-line and innocent.”
Rhode recalled Erza’s expression. She seemed to enjoy it.
Mira said: “I prefer to call it freedom and casualness. Erza just likes all kinds of distinctive clothes and likes to try interesting professions.
As for how much reward she gets, it is not within her consideration. It is better to say that as long as she is happy doing so, it is the biggest reward.
Compared with Erza, no, not just Erza, compared with most people in the guild, Rhodes, you seem too worried and tense.
I don’t know what you have been through, what kind of worries and pressures you are carrying, so I am not qualified to advise you to relax like everyone else.
But at least today, at least in the little time in the dessert house, I hope you are happy.”
The same bright smile as when they first met, the same gentle words as when they first heard, word by word, flowed into Rhodes’ heart like a trickle.
Soft and warm.
Rhodes is sure to find the reason why he is moved.
“Thank you, I’m…very happy.”
”Every day I spend in Fairy Tail is very happy.”
”Today I’m especially happy.”
