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

Chapter 99 How about I take you home?

"What reason should I use to stop you from moving forward?"

Mira put down the towel, pulled Rhodes to sit up, and then applied the mixed potion on him.

Rhodes smiled: "This scene feels very familiar."

"Yes, there was a man with injuries all over his body. When he couldn't communicate, he needed help in applying medicine. Now that he is not injured and can communicate again, he still needs help in applying medicine."

Rod said: "...Who is this guy? He only causes trouble for others. He's really annoying."

Snap! A slap fell on his back.

"Hiss~~" Rhode took a breath, regardless of whether it hurt or not, just treat it as hurting.

Mira suddenly said: "I will also come to practice with you tomorrow."

"Ah?" Of course it's a good thing to have someone with you, "Why suddenly..."

"I'll help you find the most suitable solution as soon as possible, and then you won't have to end up like this. And..."

Mira's eyebrows were lowered, and she didn't want to remain depressed.

Mira was not sure if some simple training would be useful. It was not easy to regain her magic power and use receiving magic.

But if he could persist in working hard like Rhodes and be as positive as Natsu, it would at least make Elfman feel more at ease.

If this can inspire Elfman to get out of the shadow caused by that incident, is this what a sister should do, right?

Now I can only do this.

…

"It's already so late. Didn't Elfman wait for you?"

"Well, I told him to go back early."

"Then... let me see you off." Rhodes said matter-of-factly, "There have been a lot of tourists coming to the city recently, and it feels unsafe for a girl to walk alone at night."

"Okay." Mira smiled, "But our directions are different. You have to take a long way home."

"It's okay. When I get you here, the magic power I've recovered will be enough to summon the Swift Crab."

In fact, the current magic power is also... that is definitely not possible.

"Sorry to trouble you." Mira held the small bag in her hands and hung it naturally in front of her body, smiling slightly, adding a touching brilliance to the night scene.

It was already past nine o'clock in the evening when the two left the guild.

There are no street lights on the street, so we can only rely on the light from the windows of the houses on the roadside to provide a little light.

There are also small colored lights prepared for the celebration that are twinkling and twinkling, which may seem a bit dazzling if you keep staring at them.

The weather is very good today, with stars in the sky and a crescent moon.

Unlike modern big cities, if you want to see the stars here, you will not be disturbed by lights.

The two of them walked slowly on the road. The street was quiet and no one was there. Occasionally, they could hear the chirping of insects.

Rhodes asked: "Are you renting a house here too?"

Mira said: "No, I bought it a few years ago."

"Bought it?" Rhodes almost forgot that the person next to him might be a young rich woman.

"Well, about three years ago, we decided to settle here. I think both Elfman and Lisanna would feel more at ease if they had a house of their own."

She was already able to mention Lisanna to Rhodes quite naturally.

Three years ago she was only 15 years old, which according to the country's laws was the age at which she could just start drinking.

Rhodes thought about his 15-year-old age...it was incomparable.

It's not just that he can't compare. Many girls in the guild choose to live in dormitories, partly because of convenience, partly because they can't save money.

Like Erza, if she wanted to, she could definitely buy a house in a short time.

But she would rather spend half a million J a month to rent five dormitories to store her armor and various clothes.

Then invest the remaining money into new armor, new clothes, and various desserts.

Kana also has this ability, but she has a house left to her by her deceased mother and unknown father, so she doesn't need to work too hard.

A girl like Mira who saves money to settle down here with her younger brothers and sisters, in addition to her strong earning power, must also be good at running a household.

Rhodes asked: "Isn't it easy?" "Yes, at that time, the three of us suffered a lot in order to save enough money quickly."

If a person thinks that the hard work in the past was worth it and can laugh about it, does it mean that she is still happy now?

Mira said this with a smile:

"During that period, I worked hard, worked hard...and when I came to my senses, I was selected as an S-class candidate."

"..." Good guy, can S-level be earned through hard work?

“I thought you were trying hard to compete with Erza, fighting every day, from the guild to the exam hall.

After defeating an innocent Kana midway, he continued to beat Erza. After beating Erza, he passed the exam. "

"It's not that exaggerated." Mira smiled,

"But it's almost the same. At that time, I heard that Erza was going to be an examiner, and I immediately felt very angry.

Thinking about it now, I was in a hurry to beat Erza, and I felt that my attitude toward Kana during the exam was too much. "

"Kana is so pathetic."

"Speaking of which, Kana was very cute when she was little, and so was Erza. Have you seen their childhood photos?"

"I've never seen them before!" Rhodes didn't just want to see what they looked like when they were children. "Is there a photo album in the guild?"

"Of course, and there is also Lisas's collection of paintings. Let me think about it..." Mira thought for a while, "It should be placed in some corner of the library."

"I'll look for it tomorrow!"

"Are you that interested?"

"Of course, I'm not just curious about them, I'm also curious about what a 'devil' is like."

"Ah la." Mira stroked her cheek with one hand, "I feel a little shy. My appearance at that time will be a little different."

"Then I'm looking forward to it even more." Rhodes said,

"Is it possible that when you were young, you were dark, fat, and had pockmarks all over your face, and then you became so beautiful when you grew up?"

"..." Mira raised her handbag as if to strike. Is this a compliment?

Mira's house is an ordinary two-story building, and its style is no different from the ordinary houses near the guild.

When Rod sent her downstairs, the lights in the room were still on. It was Elfman waiting for her to come back.

Through the lighted windows, it felt really different from the dark room when I went back.

"Want to go in and sit down?"

"It's already late, maybe next time."

Rhodes felt that if he went in now, he might have a fight with Elfman, but there was no need to do so.

He summoned the river crab to sit on it and waved to Mira: "See you tomorrow."

Mira stood at the door and responded: "See you tomorrow."

…

"Home."

Rhodes was a little envious. The big guild family was a kind of happiness, and his own small family was another kind of warmth.

With the cool night wind blowing on the river crab's back, Rhodes waved his hand to summon Worm.

Worm, who has grown to the size of a basketball, is already a qualified pillow. Rhodes hugged him and felt warm and soft.

"Hoo!" Worm struggled to escape from the claws. This man suddenly sent it back before, and now suddenly called it over.

It's still angry!

"I just sent you back to speed up the recovery of magic power."

I definitely don’t dislike light bulbs.

The little horn on Worm's head drooped down, disbelieving and unhappy.

Rhodes whispered like a devil: "Omelette, scrambled egg, poached egg, egg custard, egg drop soup..."

Worm's little corner picked up, and he tried hard to press it down.

Rhodes thought for a moment: "How about I give you a bath, massage your back, and rub your belly for a while?"

"Hululu!"

Worm became happy and arched in Rod's arms.
