Chapter 191: Why Is She Asking Me Again?
Chapter 191: Why Is She Asking Me Again?
Makarov said with some distress, "I don't know when it started, but Erza suddenly doesn't want to go to the routine meetings with me anymore."
It's not just that she doesn't want to go; she doesn't even want to hear about it.
Whenever Makarov mentions taking her, Erza looks like she's about to throw up. Makarov can't figure out what young people are thinking these days.
Is it because he's showing off too much?
This time, he might just send someone else to show off.
Mira continued to whisper in Loke's ear, "Actually, it's because during one of the routine meetings, Mr. Yeyu went with the president of the Blue Pegasus, and then..."
Loke remembered this; Erza seemed quite distressed recently because Yeyu kept bothering her during a mission.
She's afraid of running into him again.
"Should I go with the president this time?"
Mira thought for a moment and said, "It might not Be Bad. The president always drinks a lot during the meetings, and sometimes he even causes trouble when he's drunk. You could help take care of him."
Makarov, lacking self-awareness, said, "Am I Really that bad?"
Mira complained, "Of course, a few years ago, you even got into a fight with President Jose when you were drunk, and he hasn't attended a meeting since. Our relationship with Phantom Lord has gotten even worse."
"Anyway, our relationship was already bad. Who asked Him to say that Phantom's dominator is stronger than Fairy Tail?" Makarov said with a straight face, "And I won the fight!"
Loke didn't Know What Expression to make; he was so proud of winning the fight.
That Jose is also a Ten Wizard Saints, and he's in his prime.
The old man, after drinking too much, could still beat him up. That's some serious combat power. No wonder he's our president!
But... isn't this the kind of behavior that leads to a corrupt upper management, making the guild as rowdy as it is now? The president should take 90% of the responsibility.
Actually, it might as well be 100%, considering the most troublesome members were all picked up by him.
He's not wrong to write such a self-criticism.
"Is this really about winning or losing, President?" Mira pouted.
"But when I heard about it, Mira, you were cheering for me," the president said, a bit aggrieved, "I remember you were quite crude. Let me think... What did you say?"
"Stop thinking about it!" Mira blushed a little, "That... That was because... I was young and naive back then!"
Makarov acted childish, "But I was young back then too."
Mira said, "Yes, yes, you were only 82 years old back then."
Loke, realizing the president's age, suddenly felt indignant, "That Jose actually hit an 82-year-old elder, that's just too much, isn't it?"
Even though Jose was the one who got beaten.
Mira corrected him angrily, "He was 82 years old but still young."
"Oh, young." Loke laughed, "So it's the president's fault for being so unruly. How can a young person be so impulsive?"
"You two..." Makarov's face was full of black lines. They were really good at making him feel bad.
Loke and Mira laughed.
Makarov jumped off the counter, deciding to go upstairs to think about how to show off to his old friends: "Anyway, come with me to the station next Wednesday."
"Okay." Loke decided to go out with the president and see the world.
However, he still had a question—what did Mira actually say back then?
...
In the morning, he practiced, worked normally at noon, and in the afternoon, Loke was pulled out by a sneaky Troy.
This was the second time Loke found himself awkwardly drinking coffee with a guy.
This situation inevitably reminded him of Alzack.
Sure enough, Troy fidgeted for a while, clasped his hands together, and pleaded, "Please, Loke, teach me how to win over Levy!"
"..." Loke was silent. Why are you asking me again? I'm single too!
Although he was almost single no longer. "Why don't you consider asking Loki about this?"
Troy replied, "If Loki had a way, Jett would have succeeded long ago."
So he had already asked.
Loke said, "Then it's no use asking me. You and Levy grew up together; you should know what kind of guys she likes better than I do, right?"
Troy was troubled, "Well... we asked her a long time ago, but Levy herself couldn't really say."
Ah, Loke found this hard to understand.
With such a good start as childhood friends, how did Troy and Jett end up in this situation?
"Please, you managed to get through to Alzack, who is so shy. Just give me a bit of advice on what to do."
Alzack and Bisca were recently in a "hot and heavy" state.
These two went out on jobs together every now and then, basically forming a fixed team.
While they always claimed it was "just a team," everyone except Erza could see what was really going on.
Jett and Troy were envious and jealous.
However, they had a bit of an awkward history with Levy a few months back. They had only just reconciled, so they couldn't rush things again.
After interrogating Alzack, Troy finally decided to seek Loke's help.
He took advantage of Loke needing help with the potted plants.
"..." Loke wanted to say this was a completely different level of difficulty.
Alzack and Bisca already had mutual feelings; they just needed someone to take the first step.
Loke just helped create an opportunity.
But Troy and Levy... they were already a fixed team, almost inseparable, and yet there was no progress.
It seemed Troy was completely in love with Levy, while she was the type to take one step forward and two steps back.
Loke was no expert in romance; what could he do in this situation?
"Let me think..." Loke pondered for a moment, "From what I remember, Levy's personality is generally quite cheerful, but she can be a bit timid and lacks confidence at times, right?"
Troy was surprised, "Why? Levy is strong, smart, and excels in many areas."
"..." Loke wanted to leave. Was Troy always seeing Levy through rose-tinted glasses?
Troy realized his mistake, "Um, please continue?"
"I think Levy might like a more mature and reliable type. I can try to get someone to subtly ask for more specific details. The rest is up to you to work on."
Loke definitely wouldn't ask himself; it would be too awkward if he was misunderstood.
Maybe he should just get Mira to ask. She was more interested in such matters anyway.
"Thank you! That's enough!" Troy was quite optimistic, feeling he had already taken a step ahead of Jett.
"Don't mention it, just take good care of the potted plants for me."
Sigh, for the sake of his three sons, he would have to ask Mira for help. A father really does worry a lot.
Hehe.
