Chapter 65: The Runaway Girl and the Boy Looking for the Fire Dragon (Part I)
x784, the port city of Harugion. X
If you want to talk about the history of the city, there may not be anything surprising about it, just an ordinary fishing port.
But I don't know if it's fate or coincidence, whether it's 100 years ago or 100 years later, everything can be said to have started here......
……
“…… Quack! Why is there only one magic shop in such a big city!! ”
"What's even infuriating! That perverted old man!! Is my beauty only worth a thousand gold coins?! ”
On the shopping street, a fashionably dressed young girl shouted frantically that the failure of the bargain had hit her 'girlish heart' deeply.
"The only thing that's pretty good is this little canine's ......"
"Poof...... Hahaha!! ”
Just as the blonde girl was relieved that she had finally bought a star spirit key, a hearty laugh suddenly came from above her head.
Well, it's really coming from overhead.
“…… Stop laughing at me! Brand! ”
"And! Hurry up and get off my head and walk on your own! Can magic still be used like this?! ”
Angrily moving her gaze upwards, lying on top of her head was another girl with an emerald green hairstyle with bangs, but only the size of a palm.
witnessed the whole process of his best friend's 'bowing down and making a fuss', but it made this 'doll girl' laugh.
"Don't be embarrassed~ It's more comfortable like this~"
Squinting and turning over in enjoyment, the girl who was called 'Bran' by the blonde girl lazily refused.
Being lazy if she can be lazy is her code of action.
"Before, you asked me to bring you out 'smaller', now it's time for you to repay me~Lucy~"
"Huh!"
The girl named 'Lucy' screamed in alarm after being caught with a 'sore foot', and then walked towards the train station with her head down.
“…… I can't help it, my mother is really, I'm only seventeen years old!! Arrange a blind date for me once a week! ”
Complaining about what her mother did, Lucy at this time misses her gentle mother when she was a child.
Sure enough, people will become more when they get older, right? It's just a little over 40......
"Hmm...... It's not hard for me to understand Aunt Layla's thoughts, who made our Miss Lucy almost an adult and so innocent~"
“…… Who, who said it! I've handed it over, three...... Wrong! Four boyfriends! ”
Protesting to the top of his head with a weak heart, it is a pity that this kind of imposing words are reckless at first glance.
"Anyway! That's all right, I've run away from home anyway, I have to prove it to my dad and mom! I can live on my own! ”
“…… Ah............hh So, how do you prove it? ”
Muttering perfunctorily as if remembering someone, Bran tapped his 'golden mattress' lightly.
"Hee-hee...... Needless to say! ”
The sea breeze blows her hair, and the blonde girl, who has already made a decision in her heart, smiles very brightly.
"I want to join the Wizard Guild!"
……

"Hiccup...... Dizzy...... I'm so hungry......"
Staggering off the train from Magunolia, the cherry-haired young man with his luggage looked dejected for the rest of his life.
As the legendary dragon slayer, the only thing he has no problem with is transportation.
"Ouch! Natsu is useless! ”
“…… Hello Babpy! Cut, I definitely won't do a train again......"
'Mocked' by his peers who grew up with him, the teenager named Natsu also knew his weakness and could only pull the corners of his mouth.
As for the ...... who was walking with him next to him That is, the Harpy in the words just now is a blue kitten with human habits and human speech......
“…… Na Harpy, is Iguniru really in this city? ”
There was hope in his low tone, but as soon as he heard the news of his adoptive father, Natsu completely lost his basic judgment.
You must know that the Iguniru he is looking for, but how can a fire dragon appear in a human city.
Although this guy's personality is usually very off-line......
"Ouch! I do not know! ”
Stretching out his cat's paws, Harpy, who heard the question, shook his head as a matter of course.
"Ha ......"
Weakly exhaling turbidity, the news he understood was that there was a fire dragon here, and now he had to cheer up and find it himself.
He patted his cheek vigorously, and his recovered body seemed to exude heat.
"Good! I've been going to find Igu here! ”
"Yikes! It's a fire dragon!! ”
"Oh !! really"
“……!”
Wait, what are these people talking about?!
The clenched fist hadn't relaxed yet, what did he want to do just now?
There was a clue so quickly!
"Harpy!"
"Ouch!"
Running after the screaming crowd as fast as he could, Natsu was thrilled.
Someone mentioned the fire dragon, and there was only one possibility for this hot-blooded teenager.
(…… Iguniru! )
……
************************************************************************************************************************
I said...... Bran ......"
"What is this passion that is pounding in my heart right now......
Standing in the alley to the train station with a red face and looking at the man known as the 'Fire Dragon' surrounded by a group of girls, Lucy felt ...... You may be in love......
(…… )
(Thanks to the leader who instructed her, this kid is too easy to deceive...... )
Pulling Lucy's hair with one hand to show her displeasure, the doll girl snapped her fingers with the other hand.
Syllable.
“……!”
"I'm ......"
Confused, she glanced at the person in the crowd again, and this time, the blonde girl only felt a disgusting feeling welling up.
This is the counter-effect of the forced release of magic.
"Stupid. That's charm. ”
“!”
As soon as she was reminded, Lucy reacted.
The so-called charm is actually a kind of magic that can bewitch people's hearts, but it was strictly forbidden a few years ago.
“…… It's so nasty! Can that be considered a magician?! ”
With a gloomy face, he stretched out his hand to the leather whip on his waist, and Miss Lucy, who was uneven, was going to ...... today
"Igoniru !!"
At this moment, on the corner of the shopping street, a cherry-haired teenager suddenly rushed out shouting a name that Lucy didn't recognize.
And the other party is like that, obviously it's too late to brake.
"Wait, wait...... Front...... Front! Yes! ”
"Wow!"
With two screams, the collision accident that made people cover their faces occurred.
Perhaps, this is ...... 'fateful encounter'?
Looking at the two people who were tumbling and crashing into the wall, Bran, who immediately jumped down when he noticed the 'rollover crisis', spread his hands.
Then, the 'puppet girl' turned around and looked at the 'fire dragon' who was using magic to leave.
('Fire Dragon'...... )
(It's okay to leave it alone, but if the boss and the aunt find out that someone is using 'that name' when I go back, I'm still there...... )
(…… )
(It's really troublesome...... )
Under the 'pressure', she had to move her body.
After all, this lazy girl whose full name is Brantish hates the most,
