Fairy Tail: You can become stronger by spending money.

"I feel relieved to see you come back safely."

Mistgang accepted a commission and said to Cheng Feng who was sitting with Makarov, "You can call me if you need anything in the future."

"I'm too lazy to team up with a man. Mira is fine."

Cheng Feng waved his hand and said, "Remove it quickly, it's making me sleepy."

"I know. Thank you for last time."

Mistgang nodded, turned around and left the guild.

As Mistgang left, everyone in the guild woke up one after another.

Naturally, everyone complained about Mistgang's actions, but with Makarov's permission, they could only complain.

Makarov glanced at Cheng Feng, who was still eating without being affected. He suddenly touched his chin and said to Cheng Feng, "Cheng Feng, how old are you this year?"

"18."

Cheng Feng responded.

"It goes by so fast. I still remember when you first came to the guild, you were as skinny as a little monkey. Seven years have passed in a flash. The little brat has grown into an adult who can stand on his own."

Makarov laughed, and then with a hint of gossip, he poked Cheng Feng's arm and gestured towards Mirajane.

Cheng Feng rolled his eyes silently.

Is it true that when people get older, they always worry about the future of their younger generations?

I was talking to Mirajane and everything was going well, so why did Makarov seem to be urging us to get married?

Cheng Feng looked up at Mirajane, who was now standing with her hands on her hips, finger raised, teaching Elfman and Lisanna a lesson.

It seems that these two younger brothers and sisters have caused Mirajane a lot of worry during the days they were away.

Even though Mirajane has become gentler now, her inner temper is not as suppressed as in the original plot and is almost completely gone.

Since Cheng Feng intervened, Mirajane has never retreated from the front line of the battle. It can be seen that if Mirajane really encounters trouble, he will instantly turn into that "devil" Mira.

Should I speed up the progress myself?

Cheng Feng picked up a piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth, thinking silently in his heart.

Looking at Mirajane, a plan emerged in Cheng Feng's mind.

……

"got engaged?!"

That night, when Mirajane heard what Cheng Feng said to her, her face was full of disbelief. Then, she felt dizzy, as if she was drunk.

"Well, will you marry me?"

Cheng Feng looked at Milajie and said, "If you are willing, then we can get engaged first and set a wedding date..."

"I am willing."

There was no romantic ceremony, only a simple sentence. Mirajane snuggled in Cheng Feng's arms, stretched out her finger, and pressed it on Cheng Feng's mouth, interrupting Cheng Feng's next words.

Cheng Feng picked up Milaja and spun her around before putting her down.

"But why don't you tell others?"

Mirajane's face flushed as she looked at Cheng Feng and asked.

"Of course it was announced. But..."

Cheng Feng laughed and told Mirajane about his plan.

After hearing this, Mirajane immediately revealed a little devilish smile.

The two of them had highly consistent opinions at this moment, and they were ready to go.

……

"Is there something wrong with everyone lately?"

Makarov looked at the bustling guild and always felt that something was wrong.

"How could it be wrong?"

Cheng Feng smiled and shook his head: "Grandpa President, you think too much."

"really?"

Makarov was confused.

"Yes, you think too much, President."

Erza said stiffly.

Makarov looked at Erza. How could she be okay like this?!

Cheng Feng covered his face in his heart, as expected, Erza had no acting skills at all. Who had the guts to tell Erza that?

However, although Makarov felt something was wrong, he didn't like to ask too many questions, so he didn't ask anything and just drank.

Seeing Makarov like this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Makarov: ...It's suspicious indeed!

Although Makarov really wanted to know what happened, everyone kept silent, and Makarov felt helpless.

Time passed by little by little, and Makarov's doubts grew bigger and bigger.

Because there are fewer and fewer people in my guild. Why did many people leave when they clearly did not accept any commissions?

Makarov was a little confused, but in the face of his doubts, everyone still kept it secret.

This made Makarov feel that his credibility as the president seemed to have declined.

He wanted to figure it out, but the guild president's meeting had started again. He had no choice but to leave for the meeting, and take Erza with him to broaden his horizons.

Originally, he wanted to bring Cheng Feng with him, but Cheng Feng refused, and by the way, he sold Erza, whose acting skills were not up to standard.

Erza was full of resentment about this, and then she had no choice but to follow Makarov away.

Inside the Cardea Cathedral, many Fairy Tail guild members hurriedly made arrangements, and they all breathed a sigh of relief when they heard the news that Makarov had left.

Finally, I don’t have to be sneaky anymore.

But in this case, time is very tight and they have to speed up.

……

After the meeting, Makarov took Erza back to Magnolia.

As soon as he got off the train, a group of guild imagers surrounded him. After a while, Makarov was confused by the imagers and then willingly covered his eyes with a magic blindfold.

Makarov was overjoyed as the poster girl pulled his hands forward.

"So everyone has been preparing for so long, it's a surprise for me. Haha, they are really thoughtful."

Just as Makarov was wondering what kind of surprise it would be, he felt himself being brought to a chair, and then the poster girl took him to sit on the chair.

"Um, this is...a cathedral?"

Feeling the chair beneath him and some sounds coming from his ears, Makarov immediately determined where he was.

Just then, the blindfold was taken off.

Then, Makarov saw that the scene before his eyes was filled with festive red.

Cheng Feng and Mirajane, wearing festive red dresses, were standing in front of Makarov.

"This...you guys?"

Makarov was stunned and looked around quickly, only to find that he was now on the grass outside the cathedral. He was overwhelmed by all the festive decorations.

"Grandpa President."

When Makarov was a little confused, Cheng Feng picked up a cup of tea, handed it to Makarov and said, "Mira and I don't have any elders, so we feel that if we two want to get engaged and married, you must be the most suitable. In our hearts, we have always regarded you as our grandfather. This cup of tea is for you, and we hope you can be a witness to our engagement."

Makarov then understood why everyone was hiding things from him and why they were so secretive.

It turns out that the so-called surprise is this.

Makarov gently wiped the slightly wet corners of his eyes, tears rolling in his eyes, as if they would fall at any time. These children, they were like his own children, every moment of their growth was deeply imprinted in his heart.

At this moment, no one could be more excited than him. He witnessed the whole process of these children from being ignorant to gradually becoming mature and sensible, and witnessed their unyielding and firm belief in moving forward courageously in the face of difficulties.

Now, seeing that they have finally ushered in their own happy moment, Makarov's inner joy and pride are beyond words.

Makarov took the tea handed to him by Cheng Feng, took a sip, and put the cup back on the table.

Then Mirajane also handed over a cup of steaming hot tea. Makarov took the cup with a smile and took a sip slowly.

At this moment, Makarov, as the head of the family and the biggest witness of this ceremony, stood up and said in a loud voice: "Today, I am very honored to be here to witness the love between two young people, Cheng Feng and Mirajane."

After that, Cheng Feng and Mirajane stood face to face, stared into each other's eyes lovingly, then carefully took out the engagement ring and solemnly put it on each other's finger.

This simple yet solemn action seemed to symbolize the promise they made to each other.

Stay together for life and never leave.

At this exciting moment, Cheng Feng and Mirajane held each other's hands tightly and announced to everyone in unison: "We are engaged!"

As soon as the words fell, thunderous applause and cheers rang out at the scene. Everyone's face was filled with joyful smiles, and their eyes showed the most sincere blessings to the newlyweds.

At this moment, the whole scene was surrounded by a happy atmosphere and everyone was immersed in this beauty.

Everyone rushed forward to hug Cheng Feng and Mirajane and express their congratulations. These blessings came not only from friends, but also from the ups and downs they had experienced together, and the good times they had spent together.

In this moment full of love and warmth, Cheng Feng and Mirage felt endless happiness and satisfaction. They knew that there would be more challenges waiting for them in the days ahead, but as long as they supported each other and moved forward hand in hand, they would be able to create their own happy future!
