Fairy Tail: I Don’t Want to Be the President

Chapter 63 Work, Work

Mira found some excuse at random and drove away the noisy Lucky and others.

He asked Rhodes in a low voice: "If we want to treat guests, what about the rent?"

She has not forgotten the reason why Rhodes wanted to take on the mission.

Rhodes grimaced: "Let's take on another mission in the next two days... Please help me keep an eye on it. I'll also ask if anyone wants to form a team."

Mira smiled and said: "Okay~"

Rhodes is always moving forward, so the president doesn’t need to worry too much.

It was still early before the guild closed, so Rhodes went to the backyard to do some iron training and boxing. He couldn't move his muscles in the past two days, so he felt uncomfortable.

After exercising for a while, he stopped, borrowed the guild's bathroom to take a shower, and returned to the tavern to chat with Marcus and the others.

There are enough manpower today, Rhodes only needs to help occasionally.

With Rhodes around, the conversation naturally turned to him and Mira going out alone.

But Rhodes' main purpose was to remind everyone to be more careful when going out to work, so he tried very hard to bring the topic to the ghost.

"A ghost's people actually do such a thing!" Alzak was a little angry, but then he was a little envious.

"But during the team formation process, you perfectly protected the people you wanted to protect. Isn't it cool?"

He wanted to invite Bisika to form a team together, and then protect Bisika well. In that case...

Rhodes looked at Alzack's expression and secretly reflected on whether he had ever shown such a stupid expression.

"The ghosts are really annoying." Nabu condemned the ghosts and comforted him,

"But this should be considered a rare event. The chance of magicians from different guilds meeting is not high."

Rhodes glanced at the speaker and said after careful consideration, "Nabu, it's hard for me to believe what you said."

Nabu was stunned: "Huh?"

Marcus laughed loudly: "That's right, Nabu, you have to complete at least one or two tasks to be qualified to say such things!"

"Rhode, this is for you." Lidas suddenly handed Rhodes a piece of paper.

Rhodes took it, and what was painted on it was the scene when he and Mira went out together.

At that time, he smiled and waved at the backs of the two people. Everyone was noisy in the tavern. Lucky and other people gathered together and covered their mouths and laughed, while a few people looked at the door in surprise or envy.

Rhodes and Mira stepped out of the guild door with one foot, turned their heads and looked at each other, saying something.

The smiles on their faces were as bright as the sunshine that morning.

Lidas said: "Because I thought the scene was beautiful, I drew it as a souvenir of your first time going out to work."

"The painting is so good, Lidas!" Rhodes was full of surprise, "I will keep it well!"

Lidas was also very happy. Rhodes's expression when he saw the painting was the best compliment to him.

Nabu is still arguing with Marcus that he is not not going to work, but that he is looking for work that only he can complete.

But seeing such a good painting, I immediately stopped arguing:

"Lidas, I go in and out every day, why are there no paintings of mine?"

Lidas held up the brim of his hat and said calmly: "If you decide to go out to work, I can draw you as many pictures as you want."

He picked up the cloth and slapped the table: "That's so disrespectful. I'm going to look at the bulletin board now!"

Rhodes couldn't help but remind him: "Don't be impulsive. Think carefully before choosing!"

Lidas said: "Don't be nervous, I bet Nabu will be back in ten minutes."

Marcus smiled and said, "No, there are quite a few tasks on the bulletin board today, maybe twenty minutes."

Famous scene from Fairy Tail: Nabu looking at the bulletin board.

A scene that doesn't exist in Fairy Tail: taking a cloth and going to work.

"..." Rhodes still doesn't understand what kind of psychological problem Nabu has, even though he is obviously very strong.

His enchantment magic, the spirit of the bear, can give Nabu the power of a bear, and his punch is always very exciting.

If Rhodes wanted to defeat him, he would have to be surrounded by several wild monsters. Although it only lasted less than two days, everything I saw after returning from a long trip felt familiar.

Not only in the guild, but also at home.

Familiar tables and chairs, familiar beds, familiar sandbags...

Seeing the sandbag, Rod landed another set of punches.

Exercise and meditation cannot be put down, nor can exploration of Summoner's Rift.

According to the previous progress, there should be a red or blue one in a few days, not far from the dragon.

…

Early the next morning, Rhodes went to work in the guild as usual.

After finishing a bunch of trivial matters, I went to look at the bulletin board.

The highest rewards are usually those for defeating giant monsters, capturing dangerous criminals, etc. There are many tasks with rewards as high as millions.

It's just that the difficulty of these tasks is close to S level. Even if Rhodes dares to take them, Mira will reject them.

Those with low pay are a bit more complicated, and most of them are tasks in Magnolia and nearby villages and towns.

What about irrigating fields, collecting rare flowers and plants, catching idiots, finding lost things...

It can be as big as related to the livelihood of a village or town, or as small as it can solve the troubles of adolescence for young girls.

Rhodes looked at them one by one, and found that either they were not in his area of ​​expertise, or the remuneration was not enough to compensate for lost work time.

It's not just him, many people have this trouble when looking for tasks that suit them.

While he was looking at it, a hand with a ring stretched out and tore off a piece of paper with the task of "catching the idiot".

Rhodes turned his head and saw a handsome guy: "Loki?"

"Huh? How are you?" Before he could finish saying hello, Loki had already retreated five meters away.

Rhodes was not happy, and the experience of being treated like a dirty thing and hiding away was not good at all:

"I said you should know by now that my magic is different from the magic of the stars."

"Um, ah, sorry, I'm used to it." Loki held the task list and walked towards the counter stiffly.

"Would you like to form a team? I have someone who is good at searching..."

Swish - Loki suddenly appeared in front of Mira as if the fast forward button was pressed: "Single mission, arrest the suspicious person who is following and harassing the client."

Mira looked at the task list and just nodded when Loki rushed out of the guild like the wind.

Rhodes: "..."

Okay, it's not that easy to untie the knot in my heart, even though I don't know what the knot is.

Rhodes decided to go to the backyard to practice magic for a while and wait to see if there would be any new commissions today.

Oh, let Worm go to the kitchen to eat and drink first.

…

In the afternoon, the guild was still noisy.

Natsu had just shown off a special flame meal and was leaning on the table with contentment.

Gray was not here today, it was awkward, and he wanted to punch him in the face.

Hubby also cooked two grilled fish and spread his bulging belly on the table: "Natsu, we don't seem to have much money."

"Ah?" Natsu opened his wallet and poured it on the table. Several coins clattered down, along with two fluttering banknotes.

The total amount was less than 10,000 J, which was probably enough to feed him and Hubby for two or three days.

"No way, go to work!" Natsu stood up and punched the palm of his left hand with his right fist, "Look for a fun mission!"

Happy raised the cat's paw: "Love!"
