Chapter 145 Chase and Mira's Love Hut? Kana's Holy Light Sealing Sword!
The mages still had to prioritize their work. After playing around, the strongest squad set off to carry out their commission.
Seeing Natsume and Erza easily destroy the pool table, Lucy couldn't help but feel apprehensive about subjugation-type commissions—all the money she had worked so hard to earn last time had been used to pay off debts!
Seeing her so worried, Mira immediately recommended a routine task that wouldn't cause any damage:
A theater manager hopes that a magician can use magic to help make the theater more successful.
The location of the commission is Onibas, a commercial city even more prosperous than Magnolia, which is also the city where the strongest squad destroyed most of the train station during the Lalabai incident.
Lucy readily accepted.
With the departure of the guild's most sarcastic person and the two noisiest idiots, the temporary work area suddenly became much quieter.
"It's suddenly become so quiet, it's really a bit unusual—"
Chase sat at the bar, raised his eyes and scanned the surroundings. There were only a few scattered people in the room.
"Indeed, everyone has been very proactive lately, after all, the harvest festival is next month."
Mira sat opposite him, her hands cupping her flawless white face on the table. She blinked, her gaze fixed on Chase. "Chase, aren't you really going to do anything?"
"It's pointless, and I can't accept an S-class rating anyway."
As he spoke, Chase's eyes suddenly lit up, "How about Mira, you—"
"You are someone the president specifically mentioned who needs to be closely monitored."
Mira, instantly guessing what he was going to say, raised her hands, crossed them, and said seriously, "So, secretly opening a back door like that, ta~!"
Makarov wasn't that he didn't trust Chess's abilities; his main concern was that once this gap was opened, some idiots in the guild would be influenced and might do foolish things like secretly accepting S-rank commissions.
The new guild has not yet been established, and as the guild leader, he has many things to arrange and simply doesn't have the time to deal with this potential emergency.
"throat--"
Chess sighed, then asked, "Do you have the contact information for the construction team?"
Since he had nothing better to do, he decided to check on the construction progress of his new home.
Although he promised to pay Lucy's rent, and he and Lucy, who were like siblings, wouldn't mind such a small matter, it was still a girl's place, so it wasn't very convenient.
"Oh my, are we going to build a new house?" Mira asked.
Seeing Chess nod in affirmation, she immediately beamed with joy and reached inside her burgundy dress to feel around.
"Jiang Jiang! I've not only provided you with the construction team's contact information, but I've even designed the blueprints for you!"
Mira smiled and pulled out the blueprints, still warm from her body, and spread them out in front of her, her beautiful eyes filled with anticipation.
Chess was somewhat surprised.
From the assassination of the Three Crows to the battle at the Tower of Paradise, Mira was almost always with him.
In other words, the drawings were completed overnight!
This deep and heartfelt concern is truly touching, but the cute and pinkish children's style is, well, hard to compliment.
"Aha, ahaha, as expected of you. Can you explain the specific details?" Chase scratched his head and asked. He could deduce the previous guild design by combining his impressions of the original work, but he really couldn't understand the plan for this new home at all!
That boomerang-like act of showing off ultimately hit its mark on the back of his head. "No problem!"
Mira, who has a strong desire to share, didn't say much and placed the house design drawings on the table.
Limited by the width of the bar, she pulled the chair closer and leaned forward.
Two enormous objects replaced the freed hands, pressing them into strange shapes on the table.
"First, there's the first floor. As you walk in, there's a spacious living room, and to the side is a separate, independent gym. After all, for someone like you, exercise is definitely essential, right?"
Mira and Chess were lying close together on the table, their fair fingers tapping across the areas on the cute drawing.
"Across from the gym are the kitchen and dining table, and the two rooms behind are the toilet and bathroom."
"Yes, the bathroom definitely needs a super big bathtub; it would be so comfortable to take a bath in winter."
"Then we can install a floor-to-ceiling window on the second-floor wall facing the street; the view and natural light will be excellent!"
After the introduction, Chase became more and more confused, or perhaps shocked.
With a background in civil engineering, he truly never imagined that this children's doodle—no, this design drawing—drew by Mila would contain so much!
The world of magic is truly wondrous.
"These are all very good designs, but—"
Chess pointed to the end of the drawing. "What's that big-headed little man on the roof for?"
"This is a chibi-style statue of Chase, and it's the highlight of the whole room!"
After she finished speaking, Mira's eyes immediately lit up, just like a child eagerly awaiting praise.
"—It's ugly, there's no need for this." Chase rejected it without even thinking.
"How could this be? This is clearly the part I'm most satisfied with!"
Mira's high hopes crumbled instantly; she covered her face with her hands and began to sob.
"Except for the statue, everything else is perfect. The design is fantastic. Let's build it according to your blueprints!"
Cheston panicked immediately and hurriedly tried to comfort him.
More than fighting, what he can't stand is a girl's tears—even if Mira's hidden cunning nature is very likely just an act.
Sure enough, Mira, who was shedding tiny pearls, instantly changed her expression and smiled happily: "Really?!"
Chase was already used to this: "Just to clarify, there are no design fees."
"No way, then I'd be working for nothing!"
Mira first refuted him seriously, then her gaze shifted, and she said with a slightly playful air, "In exchange,"
I want to be the first to visit your new home!
"That's fine," Chase nodded in agreement.
In the distance, at the tables, a seasoned veteran with nothing to do watched the two chatting intimately.
"Damn it, how come the progress is so fast? They've already started designing their love nest!" Macao gritted his teeth in envy.
"I knew it! With Chase's terrifying strength, how could he destroy his own house in the middle of a battle? Turns out it was premeditated!"
Wakaba puffed furiously at the pipe in his mouth, a look of sudden realization on his face.
"I think I vaguely heard something about a nursery. Does this mean I really have no chance? It hurts! It hurts so much!"
"Stop being so sentimental, you guys with kids! My pain is greater than yours!"
"Oh, really? So you still have a wife you're not divorced from!"
Boom!
The sound of a barrel slamming heavily onto the table interrupted their pointless conversation.
With a slightly flushed face, Kana scolded irritably, "Don't you two have any work to do?! You're disturbing my drinking!"
"A drunkard like that has no right to talk about us!" Macao and Wakaba scoffed.
"No, no, no, I was just held up by something important."
Kana raised her hand to wipe the wine from the corner of her mouth and let out a very flavorful hiccup.
"Pfft, haha! Something important? Does it mean drinking so much that you have to pay the bill to the council?" Marcao couldn't help but laugh out loud.
All three were seasoned veterans of the guild and knew very well what kind of person the other was.
However, this time, Macao and Wakaba were destined to miscalculate.
"Hehe, I'm not the same person I used to be."
Kana shook her head, and after regaining some clarity, she pulled out three cards and said mysteriously, "This is a rare opportunity, so I'll show you a couple of tricks."
"My recent progress in spiritual practice!"
hum.
As Kana threw out all three cards, the magic circle lit up in three different locations.
The next second, a flash of light appeared, and a longsword with dazzling light flowing throughout its body slowly materialized, hovering in mid-air.
"Hey, you're kidding, right?!"
"Isn't this Chess's magic?"
Looking at the three familiar lightsabers, Macao and Wakaba, who hadn't paid any attention to them before, were suddenly stunned.
Even Mira, who was chatting with Chess, curiously peeked out and asked, "Oh my, did Kana simulate the Holy Light Seal Sword?"
"Although it doesn't have the restrictive effect of the Holy Light Seal Sword, it seems to have something special about it." Chess saw through the essence of Kana's magic at a glance.
"That's right!" Kana snapped her fingers with a smile.
The card magic circle on the ground started spinning again, and then the three lightsabers trembled violently.
Thick iron chains formed from light magic flew out from the surface of the lightsaber, precisely binding Macao and Wakaba, who were caught off guard.
Macao and Wakaba were shocked and struggled desperately but could not break free.
"I see. So, you hide binding light magic within cards to achieve the same effect as the Holy Light Seal Sword, restricting the target's movement?"
Mira suddenly realized, and exclaimed with some surprise, "That's a very good idea, and the magic is very strong too."
In contrast, Chase appeared much calmer.
Speaking of which, Cana, who inherited Gildaz's bloodline, already possessed very strong magic power; otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to use "Fairy Radiance," the strongest single-target attack among the three great fairy magics.
The reason it lacks performance is that it has failed to be selected as an S-level candidate for several consecutive years.
A bad mindset is one reason, but the more crucial factor is the limitation imposed by card magic with its limited potential.
"Hehe, that's not all!"
Cana raised her hand and used magic on Macao and Wakaba, easily trapping them inside blank cards, which she then held between her fingers.
The two old perverts were frantically running around in the pure white space.
In the original story, Cana learned this card sealing magic from Hugh, but Chess had already told her the basic principles beforehand, so it's not surprising that she has mastered it now.
"Wow, Kana, you're much better than before, both in terms of card activation timing and smoothness," Chase praised.
Strictly speaking, he was also a card-wielding mage, so what he saw was naturally much more detailed than what Mira saw.
"Not bad, not bad. I'm still far behind you, you monster." Kana smiled and wiped her nose.
"That's true."
"hateful!"
Kana's smile immediately froze: This card player has absolutely no sense of social etiquette!
"Thanks anyway. Without your magical inspiration and the book of secret arts, I really wouldn't have been able to achieve such a breakthrough." She expressed her sincere gratitude.
Besides increasing the user's maximum magical power, the Book of Secret Arts also provided her with a lot of inspiration and insights regarding the path of magic.
"Finally, there's hope for this year's S-class!"
Kana clenched her fist, her sparkling eyes filled with emotion.
In that case, I would be qualified to recognize that person and stay in Fairy Tail forever!
"That is, we can't run into Chess," Mira added with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Kana, who was brimming with confidence, instantly deflated.
One speaks hurtfully, the other smiles while hiding a knife; this couple's mouths are truly vicious!
