Chapter 312: Be Careful on the Road!
Chapter 312: Be Careful on the Road!
"It worked! Should I demonstrate it?" Mira handed the flute to Erza for safekeeping.
Erza asked in confusion, "How can Curse Magic be demonstrated?"
Mira explained, "It's not just Curse Magic that I gained. Let's give it a try; it's not dangerous."
"Wait a moment." Rod whispered a question into Mira's ear.
Mira's face turned red, and she slapped his hand away.
Knowing what Rod was concerned about, she released her Reception Magic, allowing everyone to see her true self, and then she re-received Lullaby.
"Is this okay now?" She glared at Rod. Why ask such an embarrassing question over something so simple?
But Rod shook his head. "No, what if Lullaby is using Transformation Magic to deceive us?"
Natsu was puzzled, while Erza nodded in approval of Rod's caution. Gray, on the other hand, thought that the stupid flute didn't have such intelligence.
Mira's three eyes simultaneously rolled their eyes at Rod. Wasn't he an expert in Reception Magic? How could he not tell the difference between reception and transformation?
She leaned in and whispered something into Rod's ear, her cheeks slightly flushed.
Rod smiled in satisfaction. "Alright, I'm good now."
The others also got ready.
In truth, there wasn't much they needed to prepare. Mira cleared her throat, opened her mouth, and sang a simple syllable, similar to a singer warming up their voice: "Ah~~ Ah—Ah~~~~"
Perhaps due to Mira's musical background, the simple syllable she sang sounded incredibly pleasant.
However, the focus wasn't on the sound itself. Instead, after hearing it, the people present suddenly yawned and started to feel sleepy.
"Huh?"
Lucy and Happy, who had come over out of curiosity, had just entered the crater area when their bodies went limp and they fell to the ground, entering a dream state.
Erza, Gray, and Natsu's eyelids were also drooping, but they didn't fall asleep because Mira stopped in time.
As for Rod, it seemed like he was specifically targeted by Mira. He closed his eyes and fell forward.
Mira took a step forward and caught him, then freed one hand to ruffle his hair, tug his ears, and pinch his face.
"I told you to ask, to be cautious, to not be so annoying..."
Rod lay quietly in her arms, completely unresponsive.
Erza rubbed her temples and sighed, "Such a powerful ability, it's almost like being hit by Mistgun's Sleep Magic."
"Lullaby should be used this way, to make enemies sleep forever if needed," Mira smiled, "but I won't do that."
"Mira is becoming more and more terrifying." Today, not only Mira, but Natsu and Rod's performances also made Gray feel a lot of pressure.
If he had the chance to participate in the S-Class exam this year and face them as opponents...
If he didn't work harder, he would truly fall behind his companions.
He glanced at Rod, who was being manhandled by Mira, and asked with concern, "What's wrong with Rod?"
"He's exhausted from excessive magic consumption, so he's easily affected," Mira smiled, "Let him sleep for a bit."
She didn't stop her actions, and Rod's hair became a mess, his face turning red from her tugging.
Gray hesitated, "Is... is that so?"
Mira assured him, "Of course."
Gray remained silent. It was a private matter between the couple; let them have their fun.
But how did Rod fall for Mira in the first place? Didn't he already know what she was like before?
"Hahaha, Rod is so lame!" Natsu chuckled, a flame appearing in his hand, "I'll wake him up like this!"
Mira shook her head, "No, you'll hurt him."
Natsu suggested, "Then I'll burn his bangs."
Mira refused, "No, I like his current hairstyle."
The flame in Natsu's hand went out, "Let me pinch his cheeks!"
Mira protectively held Rod close, "No, he's mine."
"So stingy," Natsu pouted, crossing his arms.
Gray patted Natsu's shoulder, "Why don't you go check on Happy and Lucy first?"
"Oh, right, Lucy too!" Natsu grinned and ran over, poking Lucy's cheek with his finger.
How should he tease her?
Natsu summoned a flame in his hand, but Lucy was mumbling incoherently.
He leaned in to listen.
"Fairy Tail... I love it the most."
Natsu noticed the smile on Lucy's lips and couldn't help but laugh along.
He placed Happy in Lucy's arms and then picked her up horizontally.
Mira had also finished playing with Rod's face and helped him fix his hair before also picking him up horizontally.
Erza looked at Mira and Rod, then at Natsu and Lucy, and stared at Gray thoughtfully.
A drop of cold sweat formed on Gray's temple, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
Erza spread her arms, eager to try, "Should I carry you out too?"
Gray's face turned red, "No, it's fine, I can walk by myself."
Erza looked disappointed.
Mira gave her a mischievous idea, "Just knock Gray out and carry him away."
Gray was shocked, "Hey!"
But Erza suddenly understood, "So that's it!"
Gray took off running, certain that Erza didn't have those intentions towards him and was just trying to match Mira and Natsu.
But... being knocked out and carried away by Erza for no reason was too embarrassing. He felt like Natsu would laugh at him for a year! In the end, Erza didn't catch up.
Makarov only saw Gray sprint past and hide behind him.
"What happened?"
Gray shook his head, "Nothing, La-La-Bai has been dealt with. I came early to ask how you'd like to handle things from here."
"Of course, seal it and hand it over to the Council Chamber. You guys did a great job this time."
Makarov's face lit up with a smile, proud of his exceptional children, which gave him face in front of his old friends.
As for La-La-Bai, he believed that after such a beating from the kids, he was probably out of commission.
"Guild Master, this is for you." Erza, who had followed behind, handed the flute to Makarov.
"Good job," Makarov took the flute, intending to give it and Kagaama to the Council Chamber.
He looked at Rod, Lucy, and Happy, "What about them?"
Mira said, "They're fine, just asleep."
Makarov examined Rod's face, wondering if he was asleep or knocked out. "Come with me, there's an empty room here. Come in and rest."
But Mira said, "No, Guild Master, we plan to head back tonight."
"Why?"
"I didn't inform the others before I left..." Mira looked at the Guild Master, then at Rod in her arms, and finally at Erza, "If we're all here, then in the guild..."
Makarov broke out in a sweat and made a quick decision, "Be careful on your way back!"
