Chapter 134 Mysterious
Mira wore a white one-shoulder thin sweater today, with a simple and beautiful pattern.
She wore a pair of dark blue wide-leg jeans with a pair of white flat shoes.
She looked elegant and capable in a simple outfit.
However, the design of the sweater with long sleeves that covered half of the palm, but with the shoulders and delicate collarbones exposed outside, made people wonder whether it was for cooling or warmth.
After careful research, Rhode finally figured out that the most important meaning of this design was to look good.
As agreed, the two went out together near noon, leaving the affairs of the tavern to Laqi, Sally and Izzy.
She received Rhode’s gift the day before yesterday, and now she couldn’t even complain.
Other people’s envious eyes were inevitable, but they didn’t turn into geese to block the road again.
“Are you cold?” Rhode knew that asking this was a bit blunt, but he couldn’t help it.
”It’s not cold in the guild, and it’s noon now, so it’s okay.” Mira paused, brushed her hair with her hand, and asked, “Doesn’t it look good?”
Rhode was a little surprised that Mira would ask this.
He pointed to his eyes: “I thought you could see the word ‘good-looking’ in my eyes.”
”Really? Let me take a closer look.” Mira took two quick steps and turned in front of Rhode, looking at his eyes with a smile.
Rhode stopped and looked at her, looking at her eyes with a little light blue, looking at her slightly drooping eyes, looking at her beautiful eyelashes…
He also looked at her unnaturally raising her hand to stroke her hair.
The atmosphere became a little strange, and Rhode could feel the temperature of his cheeks rising slightly.
It is definitely not a good idea to rashly look at a girl you like but have no confirmed relationship with.
Both of them looked away awkwardly, not knowing whether to stop or go.
”Sister Mira! Brother Rod!”
They came just in time, and both of them breathed a sigh of relief.
”Romeo?” Mira recognized the child who often went to the guild to play, “Are you out alone?”
Rod knew the child, he was Makao’s son, only five years old this year, and usually liked to play with Natsu and Happy.
During the period when Rod’s “strongest newcomer” news was popular, Romeo also admired him a little, but he still couldn’t compare with Natsu.
“Yeah.” Romeo nodded and asked, “Sister Mira, is Natsu in the guild?”
”Natsu and Happy are out working. They will probably be back tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.”
Seeing Romeo’s disappointed expression, Mira said, “Your father is in the guild. You can go find him.”
Romeo shook his head: “Dad has his own things to do. I can’t always pester him.
I’m going to play with other friends. Goodbye, Sister Mira, Goodbye, Brother Rod!”
”Goodbye.” Rod and Mira waved at him, and they didn’t have the heart to tell him that Makao was just drinking in the guild.
But Romeo himself should know what his father is like. Maybe in his eyes now, that’s what adults should do.
Rod said, “Romeo seems to be proud that his father is a wizard of Fairy Tail.”
”Yeah, it’s the opposite of Wakaba’s daughter.” Mira remembered that she heard Wakaba complain about family matters a few days ago, “Wakaba doesn’t seem to be liked by his daughter, and he has been arguing with his wife recently.”
”He is really not good at handling family relationships.” Rod remembered that he and Mira happened to help ease the situation in the past.
The two chatted about the gossip in the guild, and unknowingly arrived at the restaurant that Mira mentioned.
The cuisine here is really diverse, and Rod once again experienced this.
The two just ordered chestnut stewed chicken, cumin mushrooms, pine nut corn, original clams, stir-fried pork with green peppers, and a lotus root and pork ribs soup.
Although the signboard, name, and decoration are all common styles in this world, this is actually a Chinese restaurant! Since they always eat in the guild, Mira is more familiar with Rhode’s usual eating habits and taste preferences.
No wonder she said Rhode might like it here.
”What’s wrong?” Mira smiled. Rhode’s surprised expression was quite interesting.
Rhode looked at her: “A little surprised, um, thank you.”
”Ah, it seems that I guessed right.” Mira blinked her left eye slightly,It looked a bit playful.
Rod hoped that she would know that flirting was against the rules.
It was late autumn, and the two ordered some seasonal vegetables, which tasted quite delicious.
In addition, the chef of this restaurant was also very good at cooking, and because of his mood, Rod had a very happy meal.
”Slow down, I won’t fight with you.”
Mira poured a small bowl of soup and pushed it in front of Rod. She was used to his devoted eating.
These dishes don’t look difficult to learn. Do you want to… next time?
Wait a little longer.
After a while, both of them stopped eating and talked with their small soup bowls.
A masked cloaked man with a staff passed by the store. When he noticed the two, he suddenly flicked his cloak and disappeared like a phantom.
Rhode hesitated and said, “That person…”
Mira said, “It’s Mistergang.”
Rhode complained, “Since you are so well covered, why do you use sleep magic every time you come to the guild?”
This guy is too cautious. Not only does he wear a headscarf and a mask, but his arms and calves are also bandaged. He looks like he is seriously injured.
”To be safe.” Mira blinked, “I thought you could understand.”
”How can I understand… Have you classified me as a weirdo?”
”It’s not me who is making the classification, it’s everyone.” Mira smiled, “And even if he is a weirdo, he is a reliable weirdo.”
”…Or should I say Mistergang? Does he always take on difficult tasks?”
Rhode knew that Mira had never personally handed over to Mistergang, but she had the task records.
And since she likes gossip so much, she will definitely pay extra attention.
“No, there are more ordinary missions.” Mira knew. She thought for a moment and said, “Sometimes he takes on missions that are far away, but the rewards are not high for him. It feels like he deliberately wants to go far away.”
Rod guessed, “Is he a person who likes to travel? He wants to travel around the country through missions or something.”
Mira shook her head slightly, “But after the festival, when you and Gray were away, he seemed to be near Magnolia all the time. There is no pattern at all.”
”Has he teamed up with anyone?”
”Absolutely not. He has always been alone.”
”It feels like there is some big secret hidden.” Rhode felt that such a mysterious person would not wander around aimlessly.
Maybe he is looking for someone important through missions like Natsu.
Pay more attention to strange things around the city recently, maybe you can find something.
But the idea of traveling around the country is pretty good…
If I become stronger, maybe I can do that, travel on missions, and invite Mira to form a fixed team.
