Chapter 300 A Book
"Eighteen Vulcans?" Rhodes said in surprise, "Didn't you say that you only need to defeat 3 of them?"
"Well..." Macao scratched the back of his head in embarrassment.
"Actually, if you include the two that Natsu defeated, we encountered a total of 20 - I seem to have accidentally wandered into their gathering place."
"...It's really yours."
Natsu tilted his head: "But I clearly defeated three monsters."
Lucy said frantically: "I told you that's my star spirit! It's Talos of Taurus! I have to apologize to him next time!"
"Anyway, I want to thank you this time. I owe you a favor."
Macao was almost at his limit after defeating 18 Vulcans, and he really didn't have much confidence in the remaining two.
Although he could hide in the cave temporarily, he was cold and hungry, and his condition would only get worse. If Natsu and Lucy hadn't arrived, he would have been ready for a last ditch effort.
Natsu smiled broadly: "Because we are companions."
Romeo thanked politely: "Thank you Natsu-san, Happy, Lucy-san, and Rod Rod and Mira-san."
Mira said: "If you have anything to say, let's talk tomorrow. Now Macao needs to rest."
Rhodes handed the medicine box to Macao: "Give this to you, I'll ask He Crab to take you back."
Several people watched Macao and his son leave. Natsu jumped directly on the back of another river crab: "Rhode, lend me this crab!"
"Go, go, tomorrow..."
"Run!" Natsu didn't even hear the second half of Rhode's words and rushed out directly. Habi grabbed Natsu's scarf and floated it behind him.
Although He Crab could go back and beat him to his knees, Rhodes felt that it was necessary to maintain a stable image in front of newcomers and not be dragged down to the same level by Naz.
Anyway, let’s talk about that matter tomorrow.
"I feel like I have experienced a lot today." Lucy sighed, and then said goodbye, "Miss Mirajane, Mr. Rhodes, then I have to go back."
Seeing that she turned around without hesitation, Rhodes asked smoothly: "Where are you going back?"
"Hey? Of course...Hey~~~~" Lucy covered her head with her hands, "Oops! I haven't rented a house yet! What should I do?!"
This kid is no ordinary idiot.
Rhodes felt more and more that she was suitable for Fairy Tail.
Mira said to her gently: "If you don't mind, come to my house to stay for one night first, and then look for a house tomorrow."
"Can you?" Lucy's eyes sparkled, "Thank you so much!"
Rhodes looked at Mira longingly, everything he wanted to say was in his eyes.
Mira pushed his face away, indicating that there was no need to say those words.
Rhodes had no choice but to send the two of them to Mira's house and then go back by himself.
After the daily practice, Rhodes lay on the bed and thought about his inner thoughts.
Mira's savings and his savings combined can already buy a house similar to the one he is renting now.
But for future considerations, you should buy a bigger one, or consider tearing it down and rebuilding it or adding a higher floor.
Either way, additional money is needed.
But if two people make money together, it will be much easier. Just take one or two higher-paying tasks every month, and a few months will be enough.
A million-J level mission is the most suitable, the pay is suitable and it is safe enough.
"After you save enough money..." Rhodes fell into sleep happily.
…
The next morning, at Mira's house, there were four people sitting around the dining table today.
"Why is Mr. Rhodes here?"
"Ah? You were eating and sleeping at my girlfriend's house and you asked me why I came here?" "Sorry, I forgot!" Lucy blushed. She slept so comfortably at night that she almost regarded this place as her own home.
"But the relationship between Mr. Rhodes and Miss Mira is really good, isn't it?"
Lucy's name for Mira has changed a little, she seems to get along well, and now she even tries to tease her.
However, compared to Kana and Lucky, Lucy's rank was too low. Mira leaned against Rhodes affectionately and winked at her: "Because during the period of love, of course we are very close."
"Hot...hot love..." Lucy blushed instead. For her who had no experience in love, this word was already very exciting.
Mira asked: "Hasn't Lucy been in love?"
"Of course! Three, three times!" Lucy lied in a panic.
Like Kana, she likes to show off on such issues.
Rhodes then said: "Lucy is so carefree. Mira and I both found true love in no time."
Lucy quickly argued again: "I-I don't have any trouble!"
The unscrupulous couple laughed, having fun teasing the new couple.
Elfman was used to it. He finished his breakfast normally and said, "Sister, I'm going to the guild first. I want to go out to work today."
"Well, let us know when you have chosen."
After he left the door, Lucy finally said what she had been holding back all night:
"I didn't expect that Mr. Elfman is actually Miss Mira's brother."
"Is it that unbelievable?"
"Because apart from the hair color, they don't look alike at all."
Miss Mira is so gentle, beautiful, and has fair skin. That Mr. Elfman is... the complete opposite.
Rhodes made nonsense: "Because Mira is stronger and takes away all the advantages."
"That's too much." Mira looked at Rhodes angrily, "Elfman is already pitiful enough."
Lucy complained: "I think it's even more pitiful to be said like this by Miss Mira."
Lucy was not as discerning as Elfman, so she went out with Mira and Rod after eating.
For the sake of being a newcomer, Rhodes didn't care about her. By the way, one more concern: “Have you figured out where to live?”
"Well, Miss Mira said that the guild has a dormitory for girls, but the monthly rent is 100,000 J..." Lucy grimaced, she didn't have much money left, "I want to look outside first, if it's not cheaper Just stay in the dormitory.”
Lucy is lucky.
After running around for a long time, she finally found a house with a rent of only 70,000 J.
The location is right by the canal and very close to the shopping street.
In terms of convenience of life, the location is better than the house rented by Rhodes.
After negotiating the price with the landlady and getting the keys, Lucy happily ran back to the guild to pick up her luggage.
She said that she would tidy up and take a rest today, and she would officially start working as a magician tomorrow.
In the afternoon, Natsu and Happy picked and chose a mission to find Rhodes.
"Take out a book from Duke Aibal's house in Shiloh City..." Rhodes confirmed the content of the task and wondered,
"When I saw this mission, I wanted to ask, should we also do stealing?"
Mira said: "Of course ordinary theft of property is not possible. But if it is originally the client's property and cannot be retrieved through normal channels, we can also help. Occasionally, such a situation will occur."
"Okay, when are you leaving?" Rhodes said to Naz, "If it's tomorrow, I'll show you something tonight, you'll be interested."
Ah, I’m back safely. I walked 15,000 steps on the Great Wall. I still have to code when I come back. I’m so tired.
