Chapter 17 The Fairy Queen

At noon today, the tavern was noisier than yesterday.

The main reason is that Natsu has returned from a mission, but Gray hasn't left yet.

The two people were ten meters apart, but suddenly they looked into each other's eyes and started arguing for no reason.

Natsu yelled things like "droopy eyes" and "ice cube bastard".

Gray also shouted words like "hanging eye" and "flaming fool".

After no more than ten seconds at most, the two's foreheads touched each other, and then they fought together.

These two guys didn't fight as measuredly as Makao and Wakaba, and soon a stool leg flew out and hit Elfman on the back.

Elfman yelled "man" and other words and waved his fists to join the battle group, but was soon punched away by Natsu and Gray each.

Elfman flew away and knocked over Kana's wine table. The wine bottle thrown by Kana hit a handsome guy on the head.

The handsome guy who was chatting with two beauties did not show any anger, but let go of the two beauties in a graceful manner:

"Please wait a moment, I'll get involved."

He also winked at him before leaving. Two beauties were shocked by his eyes and screamed to cheer him on.

The tavern became increasingly chaotic, and one member after another was involved in the battle. Even Lidas who was painting, Nabu who was looking at the task board, and Lebby's team were not spared.

Mira, as before, was watching the excitement from inside the counter with a smile.

Lucky... is already fighting, and this girl is not an economical person.

Rhodes decisively placed the food he was about to deliver on the counter and left it next to the drunk president.

Feel safe.

He was concentrating on the various 'battlefields' in the tavern, not to watch the excitement, but to avoid the unidentified flying props that might fly at any time.

Rhodes is already an old employee who has joined Fairy Tail for two days. When working in the guild, you must learn to protect yourself.

Seeing that the scene was getting more and more intense, and the hand-to-hand combat was about to escalate into a magic battle, Rhodes felt that it was time to wake up the president to stop them.

This step seems to be a routine.

But before he could take action, the door of the guild opened with a bang, and the bright sunlight at noon shone in through the door, outlining a graceful figure.

When Rhodes' eyes gradually adapted to the sunlight, the figure had already walked in steadily.

She has long crimson hair, no emotion or anger on her delicate face, and her black boots and blue skirt perfectly modify her beautiful legs, but...

However, the upper body he wore was a piece of metal armor, complete with shoulder armor, arm armor and gauntlets.

If you put armor plates on the skirt and put a sword in her hand, she will look like a female knight.

But what she was holding at the moment was a three-meter-long rope. When she walked in the door, she could see that the rope was pulling a flatbed truck.

The car contained a mountain of suitcases that were taller than her.

He must be a tough guy. Rhodes made this judgment in his mind.

Then Rhodes noticed her crimson hair and remembered what Mira mentioned just yesterday - Erza!

The noisy guild fell into silence as Erza walked through the door with her luggage.

The people who were noisy just now were frozen as if the pause button had been pressed, even if some people were still grabbing others by their collars or hair.

Mira smiled happily: "Welcome back, Erza!"

"Ah, I'm back." Erza responded politely, then looked at the others, her expression immediately becoming serious.

Everyone was silent, and only a few brave ones tried to talk: "Miss Erza, is the mission going well?"

He even added a special honorific.

"Don't try to get away with it. I heard that you have caused a lot of trouble again!"

"Those things aside, Pidgeda, don't dance on the table! Nabu, don't just wave in front of the bulletin board, take on a commission! Wakaba, watch your cigarette ashes! Kana..."

When Erza came up, she named and criticized a group of problem children and uncles. Those who broke tables and chairs were severely reprimanded.

No one she named dared to talk back. Especially Natsu and Gray, the two guys who had just fought the hardest were now arm in arm, looking like they had a good relationship.

Erza nodded with satisfaction: "It's good to live in harmony, but Gray, your clothes."

"Ah? When?" Gray hurriedly found his pants and put them on.

However, Erza has not stopped outputting yet: "President, they are drunk in broad daylight, so we should restrain them somewhat, right?"

"What does it matter..." Makarov seemed not to be very sober, and was even burping from wine.

Rhodes suddenly discovered that the tavern had returned to its normal state, and the people who had been fighting in groups just now were drinking and chatting normally.

Natsu and Gray sat opposite each other, still unconvinced when their eyes met, but once Erza's eyes glanced over, they immediately clinked glasses and laughed in tacit understanding.

This is simply the dean of education.

At this time, Erza's eyes fell on Rhodes. Fortunately, he was still kind: "Where is the new member? Is he a new member or a resident of Magnolia?"

Rhodes greeted him politely: "Hello, I'm Rhodes. I just joined the guild two days ago.

I heard Mira mention your bad deeds before, it was like thunder. "

"Madara, Banban's evil deeds..." Erza seemed to have been hit by something, and looked at Mira in shock.

She only knew that Mira liked gossip, but she didn't know that Mira would speak ill of people behind their backs.

"That's not the case. There is something wrong with Rhodes' Common Language..." Mira had a headache, and it finally caused a misunderstanding.

She explained how Rod learned the language and added,

"Anyway, while Rhodes is still learning magic and common language, he will temporarily work part-time as a waiter in a tavern."

"I see, I am Erza." Erza's attitude towards the new members is quite friendly.

"Since you have joined the guild, you are like family. If you have any difficulties, you can come to me and I will try my best to help you!"

When she said the word 'full strength', Erza clenched her fists, her tone and expression very serious.

"Ah...thank you." Rhodes didn't know whether he should be happy or not.

Good news, Erza and Erza from the protagonist group have become 'family'.

Bad news, Erza just took care of a large group of 'family members', and judging from how skillful she was, it was definitely not the first time.

Erza sat in the guild for a while, drank something, and left with the luggage trolley, saying that she had been out for too long and had to go back to clean the room and sort out the loot.

Rhodes curiously asked Mira what Erza's mission was.

But Mira said that the client requested to keep the specific situation confidential. Basically, he was helping a remote border town deal with a difficult criminal gang.

"Erza solved dozens of criminals in one go~" Mira smiled, "How about it, our 'Fairy Queen' is very handsome, isn't she?"

Rhodes nodded: "Yeah... he is very handsome."

To be fair, Erza is powerful, her personality... currently seems to be a rare decent person in the guild.

And her appearance is no worse than Mira's. Rhodes estimates that she is definitely the target of many people's hearts.

But...he didn't dare to have any random thoughts.

Because Mira gave him the glorious record of popularizing Erza:

For example, she beat Natsu who challenged her to the point where Hobby couldn't even recognize him, repaired Gray who was walking around naked until he was almost buried in the ground, and beat Loki who pursued her until he was barely alive...

Rhodes suddenly felt that the word 'stained with bad records' he used earlier was not wrong.

"Raki? What is that?"

Mira noticed that Lucky came back with a gift box as tall as a person after sending Erza out.

"It's a specialty that Erza brought back for me."

Lucky happily put the red gift box down with a thud, which sounded very weighty.
