The sun is rising, and the birds are singing.

When the first rays of the morning sun shine on the streets of Kulokas, the morning dew brought by the winter wind also awakens the sleeping royal capital.

Although it is now in the depths of winter and the flowers are withering, the pines and cypresses are still standing tall and more vibrant.

"The weather is good, and it looks like it's another good day for business!"

The owner of the inn opened the door and looked out the window at the scene of Kulocas, feeling refreshed and in good spirits.

"Speaking of which...... What do you seem to have heard in the middle of the night last night? Just to be on the safe side, it's better to take a look, or it won't be good if something happens, after all, it's my dearest guests! ”

Since I ran this hotel, my wallet has become more and more bulging, and not only has my life become nourishing, but I have also saved a lot of private money.

As soon as he thought of this, the innkeeper was overjoyed and smiled.

Until......

"Where did I go?!"

Looking at the empty door frame in front of him, and the door lying in the room, which had become tattered, the smile on the innkeeper's face froze instantly.

……

On the avenue, a modified magic four-wheel drive vehicle sped by, and behind it was the bustling capital of the kingdom.

It was Elusa who drove the car, and it was her punishment for breaking the door and causing everyone to leave early.

In the car, thinking that it was done, Wendy was worried, hugged Xia Lulu tightly, looked at Kira nervously and asked, "That...... Kirasan, is it really okay for us to leave like this? ”

Kira was playing cards with Hopelet and Gray when she heard the voice and looked up at Wendy and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Lucy took the lead in complaining: "You're embarrassed to ask what's wrong?!" Broke the door of the hotel and left like this, how could Wendy be such a kind person with a good conscience?! ”

"Huh? Running away after causing damage or something, I thought you should be familiar with this set for a long time...... Besides, I didn't break the door, it was Elusa! ”

After listening to the reason, Kira replied nonchalantly, and then continued to look down at the cards.

Elusa: Rage +1+1......

They played 'Demon Tail Killing', and after it became popular all over the country, Kira introduced many magicians, as well as new forms of the original magicians, such as [Natsu Fire Mode], [Gray Evil Mode], etc., which greatly increased their popularity in the territory of the Fiore Kingdom.

"Eat my big move! Leprechaun Legal !! Kira confidently typed out [Fairy Law].

"Not good!!"

Hoplet and Gray were shocked at the same time: "It's actually an AOE super magic card?!" ”

"I remember there's only one card in the whole set, right? You've been hiding for so long......"

"Bastard Kira, what a sinister one!!"

"Wha...... Win, win!! After you go back you have a lunch, you have a dinner......"

Lucy, Wendy, and Xia Lulu looked at the three of them in silence, their faces speechless, they felt that these three people were mentally retarded.

Natsu and Harpy looked at the three of them excitedly, their eyes sparkling, they felt that the three of them were so powerful that they wanted to join the game and play together, but they were always confused by the rules of the game.

Seeing that the three-player game was over, Lucy spoke again: "Even if Elusa broke it, at least she should apologize and leave it to make amends, right?" ”

Kira waved her hand casually: "Don't worry, I'll leave the compensation." ”

"Compensation...... How much was left? ”

Lucy and the others blinked, and someone like Kira, who loves money so much, would leave to make amends? Is this the sun hitting the west and coming out? It's so unusual!

For a moment, several people were full of curiosity about how much money Kira had left as compensation.

"Elusa's autograph."

"Huh?!"

The air on the car froze instantly.

Something is wrong, there is a murderous atmosphere!

Kira hurriedly changed her words and told the truth, and at the same time laughed to hide her guilt: "Hahaha...... Just kidding! Where did I get my signed photo of Elusa? ”

Hey? That's right! Where would he have Elusa's signed photo?!

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief at the same time: "Whew...... Scared my ......"

"There are no signatures, only photographs, which were cut out of the hotel's weekly magazine."

In the silence, the corners of everyone's eyes twitched.

"Isn't that just nothing to compensate?!! And it has caused serious damage to the hotel again!! ”

On the rest of the road, Kira only felt that Elusa's driving skills had deteriorated severely, and she had to shake violently every few seconds. If he hadn't added strong anti-shock technology when building the car, I was afraid that it would have fallen apart in less than half an hour.

……

Magnolia, still a familiar atmosphere.

The guild tavern, still familiar air.

In the spacious tavern, there was a lot of noisy laughter and music, and the music that I never got tired of listening to, and today it was rock music, which made the hearts of the magicians in the tavern excited, and they couldn't help but hum and dance while drinking and having fun.

The smell of tobacco and alcohol, the smell of food, and the smell of sweat stains are mixed together, but fortunately, the tavern is well ventilated, and the air freshener is sprayed, but it does not make people feel uncomfortable, but has a warm and cordial atmosphere.

Kira and the others came and went, and it took less than three days in total, and it was less than a week since the end of the S-level assessment in mid-December, and Christmas hadn't arrived yet.

Boom!!

With a loud bang, the tavern door was pushed open, and two figures rushed straight in.

"I'm back!!"

"It's a guild!!"

Harpy and Natsu rushed in first, making a lapse in the first-floor hall as usual, spilling their smell all over the place, before returning to their senses and greeting the magicians.

"I miss you so much!!"

"What do you say about nostalgia...... Haven't you been gone for a few days......"

"Can you miss a few days! Na Na ...... Did you know? We really saw the dragon's graveyard!! ”

"Huh? Didn't you all know about this before you went? There's no need to make a fuss! ”

"But knowing is not the same as seeing!!"

Natsu smiled brightly, and because he was deeply influenced by Igoniru when he was young, he now felt very kind to any dragon, whether alive or dead, bone or ghost, except for Akunororia.

"And Wendy can also summon the ghost of a dragon! We've also had a conversation with the ghost of the dragon!! It's so funny!! ”

Gajiru was stunned: "Wendy? When did she become a necromancer? ”

"You're not a necromancer! It's the mystery of dragon slayer! ”

Natsu excitedly showed off Wendy's magic to the guild a magician, his face full of pride, as if the person who could summon the dragon's undead was not Wendy, but himself.

Kana wondered, "Your dragon slaying magician's dragon slaying mystery? Isn't that for combat? ”

"Of course, it's because Wendy's magic is special! How, that sounds cool, right? ”

"Well...... It's just so-so......"

"Eh?!!"

"Did I say you're so disappointed?!!"

On the other side, Harpy also found his good colleague, the second position of the 'Xia Lu Pusher Party', Mira, and loudly shared the harvest of this outing.

"Miramira...... Natsu and Lucy almost kissed this time! ”

"Oops?! Are you sure?!! Did you kiss at the end? ”

Mira was really interested, and her hands clapped, her eyes burst into star-like flashes, and she looked at Harpy's fleshy face expectantly.

Did you kiss it? Needless to say, just look at my expression!

Harpy helplessly spread his hands: "It's a pity...... Because Natsu didn't take the opportunity and nothing happened in the end! ”

"Huh!! Is it? What a disappointment......"

Mira's face suddenly fell, but she quickly regained her spirits, after all, it was not more than once or twice that Natsu's sluggishness had caused the two of them to miss a step further.

She's endured it for so long, she's used to it, so there's only one word she leaves for Harpy.

"Revisit! Again! ”

"Love!!"

Harpy exchanged a serious and serious salute with Mira, then turned and flew towards Natsu.

As soon as Lucy walked into the guild, she was immediately ashamed and annoyed when she heard this person and a cat chatting unabashedly about her gossip with Natsu in full view.

For Mira, she can't say anything, she is the signboard of the guild, a gentle and considerate sister, and the dream lover of countless men, and it is normal to take care of herself so much and worry about her emotional life.

But! Herbie......

"You stinky cat, you're orchestrating me behind my back! Come here!! ”

As he spoke, he rushed towards the harpy without hesitation, and a man and a cat immediately chased and fought in the guild.

"Alright, alright...... You're so energetic! ”

As soon as Kira entered the door, she saw Harpy flying towards her, and without hesitation, she grabbed his face with her right hand, crumpled it with her left hand, and then stepped on the side of her body, and threw it out like a baseball, just hitting the guild flag hanging on the second floor!

"It's so soft!"

Kira was shocked at how soft Harpy's body was, and the touch was even more wonderful than the droplet-shaped mysterious silicone he had in his store.

"What a feline!"

"Accurate!"

The sorcerers, who were watching the quarrel between Harpy and Lucy, naturally saw Kira's movements, and were shocked by the accuracy of his throws, and of course his reflexes.

"I'm dizzy!"

The Harpy who was smashed on the guild flag had gold stars in his eyes, and in his vision, the entire guild was spinning and shaking.

"You're back?"

Makarov's figure appeared on the second floor, he first looked at Kira and the others who entered the door, and after making sure that the group was not injured, he jumped deep and landed on the table on the first floor with dexterity and skill.

"How? Found the keel you need? ”

Kira shook her head and said, "We didn't have a complete set, but we brought back some of the bones, and I identified them, and they were good magic materials, which can be added when I make a chair for Natsu later." ”

"I think it's ...... too"

Makarov squinted, looking at Kira's gaze as if he was looking at a miserly rich man, and sighed, "Anyway, you are really not empty!" ”

"Even if there are only a few bones left in the graveyard, you have to harvest a wave, which really suits your character......"

"Hahaha...... It's easy to say...... It's all basic! ”

As an adult, Kira certainly knows that she must be humble in doing things, and she can't be praised by the leader, and she can't steal the limelight of the president in public, which is a big taboo!

"I learned it from you! You are an example for us to follow! A bright light that guides the direction of life and the norms of behavior! ”

Makarov was suddenly embarrassed, and for the first time he was modest: "Don't talk nonsense! ”

"The old man is not that kind of person!!"
