Chapter 220: Two Men in the Night
When Calvin returned to his home, he found that there had been an uninvited guest at some point. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
This uninvited guest is very familiar, in fact, they only met yesterday.
"Are you sick, wait for me at my house at this time!"
Shouting while opening the door, Calvin said in an extremely impatient tone, with his perceptual ability, he would naturally know the identity of the person who came before entering the house.
Gerald, the escaped prisoner, came looking for him again.
He sat on the comfortable and soft sofa and waited.
"I'm sorry to harass you at this time, but there's something about it, and I hope to discuss it with you. Gerald said lightly, his expression very serious.
"It's really troublesome, don't you have any other friends? Calvin didn't want to discuss anything with Gerald, and when he saw Gerald's expression, he knew it was definitely a nuisance.
In the face of Calvin's evil words, Gerald just smiled slightly, didn't mind, and continued to say what he wanted to say: "As far as I know, you Demon Tail will send two teams to participate in the Great Demon Director Martial Arts. ā
"Your intelligence is amazing, and I just found out about it. Calvin was really scared at this moment, "You're actually a ninja, you must often sneak into the middle of nowhere to steal information, and you like to wear tights so much, you must be right!"
It looks like it's going to be serious.
Even if he was as calm as Gerald, he couldn't help but pull the corners of his mouth for a while, not knowing what to say.
Faced with a thinking out-of-the-box, Calvin said he really couldn't keep up.
The best thing to do, I'm afraid, is to ignore Calvin and continue to talk to himself.
"One of the teams, His Highness Makarov has already decided, but it seems that the personnel of the other team, he is still troubled. ā
"I don't know, but the other team is none other than Laxus, Mira, Gogiru and Jubian. Calvin said uninterestedly.
"As you know, with the alternates, a team has to have at least six magicians, so I'd like you to advise Makaroff to let me go as Misgang. ā
When Calvin heard this, he was stunned, dumbfounded, and looked at Gerald.
The latter looked at him with an absolutely serious look as I did.
This annoyed Calvin.
"You want to pretend to be Mixgang to play?" Calvin cautiously confirmed, but his expression was very exciting.
Gerald felt that the gaze was like that of looking at an idiot, and that made him feel good.
But he still insisted on his opinion, and said sincerely: "I hope that I can help you Fairy Tail by himself!"
He was met with a disdainful chuckle from Calvin and a roll of his eyes that rolled up to the ceiling.
"What kind of expression do you have? "No matter how well Gerald is well-educated, he will still be angry in the face of this kind of reaction.
Calvin's eyes widened, and he looked Gerald up and down for a moment before he said slowly, "I used to think you were a real genius, but today I found out that you are an idiot." ā
A tic-tac-toe-shaped green tendon suddenly appeared on Gerald's forehead.
"Didn't you just want to avoid approaching the venue that you commissioned us to investigate the truth about that strange magic for you?"
"You're telling me now that you're going to pretend to be Misgang and sneak into the race?"
"Do you think you'll be able to show your true strength when you're competing? Or do you want to fight with all your might, and then let the whole country know that our fairy tail is shielding you as an escapee!"
"Please, before you make such an idiotic decision, can you discuss it with Urrutia?"
Calvin shouted angrily, scolding Gerald in embarrassment.
"Uh...... Urrutia would certainly not agree. ā
"You know that, too!" Calvin replied directly, and Gerald's words were once again speechless.
Now that he thinks about it, he knows that it was a decision that would do more harm than good, but he was still a little unwilling.
The two fell silent one after another, and the room suddenly became silent, except for the slight breathing of the two of them.
Suddenly, Calvin said.
"But you reminded me that Misgang had never seen a face, and that could be put to good use. ā
Gerald's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he thought that Calvin agreed with his idea.
It was just Calvin's next sentence that made his mood low again.
"There are many humanoid summoned beasts in my summoning card, as long as he puts on a cloak, he can completely disguise Mysgang! Few people know about Mystergan's magic anyway!" Calvin became more and more excited, as if he couldn't wait to propose to Makarov.
His previous summoned beasts were already real S-level strength, let alone now.
Seeing Calvin's eyes shining, Gerald was also sure that his proposal was 100% unrealizable, and lowered his head a little, with a hint of gloom flashing in his eyes.
"I say, do you have to be so melancholy?" Karl sputtered coldly as Gerald wowed in his haggard state.
Gerald reacted immediately, his cheeks were a little hot, and he said embarrassedly, "No... No... I was just...... I hope to make up for my past mistakes. ā
"Actually, you're trying to please Elusa. Calvin said coldly.
This sentence immediately made Gerald panic, and he quickly shook his head in denial.
"What else are you pretending, an idiot can see that you like her, you went to Elusa the day before yesterday, didn't you confess to her?" Calvin said in a somewhat low tone, but there was a strong sense of curiosity in it.
Gerald smiled bitterly and sighed softly.
"How can someone like me be qualified to accompany Elusa...... I hurt her too deeply. ā
This sentence is full of bitterness.
Calvin is also silent, and he still knows about the previous grievances between the two.
I saw him go to his wine cabinet, take out a bottle of wine, open it, pour out two glasses, and then say quietly.
"Not necessarily, although you were a bastard before, aren't you also a prodigal son? Although you deceived your former partner, no one died after all, right, although Elusa occasionally plays petty, but in essence she is very open. ā
"Don't pretend you don't understand, you and I can see that Elusa has forgiven you a long time ago, and she is not smart enough to hide her resentment. Calvin said lightly, and Gerald, after hearing this, was silent for a long time, and sat like this without moving.
"A woman's youth is short, don't let her wait for you too long. Calvin patted Gerald on the shoulder and handed him a glass of rum.
Gerald was not pretentious, and just killed it in one bite.
"Calvin, I'm a criminal, and I can't walk with her openly. Gerald said with a slight dazedness. "I just want Elusa to be happy. ā
"Then I'll go after her. Calvin said in a relaxed tone.
Hearing this, Geraldden stood up and subconsciously grabbed Calvin by the collar, revealing an angry expression.
What I saw was Calvin's grinning face.
"Look, don't be so great, you can't accept Elusa being with another man. ā
Gerald could only be silent.
"Actually, in your heart, you want Elusa and you to maintain such a relationship all the time, relying on the unbreakable bond between the two of you, you know that Elusa can't forget you, so that you can always wait for each other. ā
"It's selfish. ā
Calvin's words pierced his heart like the most painful needle.
He wanted to refute it, but he couldn't think of anything to refute.
There can only be silence.
Seeing this, Calvin shook his head and said, "You go back and think about it, is the reason that hinders you from being together really an identity problem between the two of you?"
"Or because you still won't forgive yourself for what you've done. ā
"Gerald, though we're not friends and don't know each other very well, I'd love to ask you. ā
"Elusa has forgiven you, so when will you forgive yourself?"
Hearing this, Gerald was silent for a long time before he raised his head.
His expression was no longer gloomy.
"Is there an answer?" Calvin asked, smiling.
"I'm going to meet with my former friends at the Tower of Paradise, and I can't forgive myself until I get their forgiveness. Gerald said softly, his expression still solemn, but there was a little more relief between his eyebrows.
"Look, there's a solution!" Calvin smiled with satisfaction and patted Gerald's shoulder vigorously.
