Chapter 91, Ikaruga: This little girl is not talented, please give me some advice in the future!
“If it is a machine exhibition, although there is no way this time, you will definitely be able to see it next time.”
Suddenly a man spoke.
Everyone looked over.
Edward came over with a large group of people.
One of them was wearing overalls stained with machine oil and paint. His hair was messy and greasy. It looked like he hadn't washed his hair for many days.
"Alex!" Natsu's eyes shone, and Gray also sat up.
Edward said: "To thank you all, I kindly ask Mr. Alex to hold a machine exhibition in the town of Magnolia where your guild is located."
“No, it's not a plea.” Alex scratched his head and said shyly, “It's my thanks. You can all come and see me then.”
“Great!” Everit and others became happy.
“Lucy.”
When her name was called, Lucy turned around and was stunned, "Father?"
The person coming was none other than Lucy's father, Jud Heartfilia.
Jiude looked at his daughter - there was no serious injury. He felt relieved, but his face still had a serious expression. He said: "I have something to do here."
After saying that, he walked towards Turtle Dove coldly.
“Mr. Jiude.” Ikaruga shouted quickly.
"I'm late." Jiude said apologetically.
"No, no one expected this to happen." Turtle Dove shook his head.
“Wait a minute, Father, what's going on?” Lucy chased after him and asked.
“Miss, it's like this,” Jiude's assistant explained.
Turtledove also added from the side.
I see-
Shortly before.
When Jiude was on a business trip, he was attacked by a dark magician hired by a business competitor. Ikaruga happened to be passing by and saved him.
In order to repay the favor of saving his life, Jiude said that he could grant Ikaruga a request.
Ikaruga just happened to take over the mission to go to the Tower of Paradise at this time.
She knew that if she went on this trip, she would probably not be able to come back.
So I sent a letter to Jiude, hoping that he could support Ryder and the others in living and studying, and preferably treat Emily.
But before Jiude came to Hanita Town, something like this happened unexpectedly.
But it's okay.
The ending is good.
“No wonder you chose to die.” Erza sighed.
She has fought Ikaruga before. This woman is very strong. If she fights to the death, it will indeed consume a lot of her physical strength and magic power.
But she didn't expect that the opponent gave up the attack during the final blow and was defeated by her.
"I'm sorry to excuse you." At this time, Edward said: "Mr. Jiude, I can't leave these children to you."
Everyone looked at him.
"In the new Ahhanita Town, there will no longer be an east town or a west town." Edward said: "I will serve as the mayor. Ryder and the others don't have to leave their hometown. I will give them a place to live, food to eat, and education. superior."
Jiude thought for a while and said, "Then I will invest in the schools and businesses here."
“That's great!” Edward also became happy.
The turtle dove let out a long breath, fell back, and fell asleep.
You can completely let go of the worries in your heart.
She could no longer hold on to her exhaustion.
Ahhanita Town suffered heavy losses due to this battle.
But fortunately Edward is a good mayor.
Especially the Ahanita family left him a huge amount of property.
This is also a mayor who is not pedantic.
Anyway, before the battle, the town was controlled by the former mayor John. After the battle, the barrier fell again. In addition, during the battle, weak people dared to explore.
So even if there are spies from the palace, they will never know the details - especially how much wealth the Hanita family has left behind.
Although John paid a large tribute to certain people in the palace every year.
John has made a decision - to give away all the inheritance of the Ahanita family, so that those people can have a good meal. As for if they want more - anyway, what he holds in his hand is enough to make those people settle down!
This money will be used to rebuild Ahhanita Town.
The previous business model can be used as a reference, but the main thing is to allocate resources more rationally and bring Dongzhen back into his embrace. From now on, there will be no distinction between east and west. In order to have no grudges against each other, he plans to take advantage of the reconstruction to disrupt the pattern of the town again. Plan and turn the commercial street into a commercial city.
Sometimes, if a big man loosens his fingers a little and lets some wisdom flow out from his fingers, countless small people can gain unimaginable benefits.
What's more, Edward didn't take a penny from this wealth.
Not only that.
There is also the investment from Lucy's father, Jiude.
Ahhanita Town will not decline after this battle, and may even become more prosperous.
Of course, by then the town of Hanita will have been renamed—Edward will ask the palace to rename the town "Felix".
Natsu and others were extremely happy—after a rare commotion, there was no compensation, and instead, something good happened.
The school had not yet been built, so Ryder and others stayed in the hotel where Everit had lived.
They have already used some of their spare money to buy books and study before they enter school. Jiude invested in them, so they naturally have to cherish this hard-won opportunity.
Except for Emily, she did not enter the school.
Some time has passed since the battle.
In the hotel.
Ryder said seriously: "Sister Turtledove, we have no problem here. After the school is built, we can live in the school dormitory. We will all find our own goals and study for the goals."
“What is Brother Ryder's goal?” Emily asked doubtfully.
Her illness has recovered. After these days of recuperation, although it is very strenuous, she can stand up and walk. She has gained some flesh on her body, and her face has regained a healthy light red color.
Lyder said: "I want to learn from Mr. Edward, and I want to become the mayor of Ahhanita Town!"
“Then you must work hard.” Emily said.
"Emily, you must work hard to learn magic." Ryder said.
Before leaving Ahhanita Town, Everit had promised to take in Emily.
"Of course, I will not let Master down!" Emily raised her fist.
"So." Ryder looked at Turtle Dove and said, "Sister Turtle Dove, you don't have to protect us anymore. You should pursue your dreams."
“.” Turtle Dove looked complicated.
Underground church.
The candlelight flickered, and in the darkness, there was a three-meter-tall stone statue.
It has two wings on its back and eight arms.
His face is compassionate and kind.
Available in the next second.
The stone statue opened its eyes.
Blood red irises, vertical pupils.
These are definitely not human eyes!
Alex is a good man.
Things he promised.
It will definitely be done.
The Alex Machine Exhibition was held in Magnolia.
And all members of the Fairy Tail guild received tickets.
Everit and others were satisfied at the exhibition. After enjoying themselves, he, Natsu, and Gray formed a group, holding each other's shoulders and staggering home in the sunset.
Lucy and Juvia followed behind.
Looking at the three of them stumbling and dangling around, they looked like three drunkards.
Juvia said: "Miss Lucy, are they really not drinking?"
"Probably not." Lucy said: "If he really touched the wine, they should be the ones carrying Everit back now."
"I really don't understand. The machine exhibition and other things have turned Gray-sama into a child." Juvia shook her head and said.
Recalling that before, Gray, who had always been at odds with Natsu, actually wore a double-controlled mecha with Natsu and fought against Everit and Habi's Dragon Knight mecha in the ring. Although the equipment was upgraded, what do you think? It's like a few children playing on the sand.
She said she couldn't understand.
“Well” Lucy smiled and said, “Isn't it quite cute?”
“That's true, it's rare.” Juvia nodded.
"Oops—I'm out of gas—" Natsu made a mechanical sound.
"I-here-have-" Everit also made a mechanical voice, took out a card, and then conjured a drink.
"Thank you—No. 003—" Natsu's arms stiffened and he imitated the robot's gesture.
"You're welcome—No. 001—" Everit also handed it to him with a stiff arm.
“I also—need—” Gray also made a mechanical voice.
Lucy and Juvia behind them covered their mouths and laughed.
At the end of the alley.
Everit waved stiffly, "Goodbye—No. 001—No. 002—"
"Goodbye-" Natsu and Gray replied, then turned around and continued walking away arm in arm.
Laughter came from behind.
Evrit turned back in confusion and was stunned.
A tall pink-haired beauty is holding a white-haired beauty.
The two of them were covering their mouths and laughing.
Ah this
Seems a bit social.
But Everit was in a strong mood. He pretended to be nonchalant and said: "Emily, your body has recovered a lot."
“Well, it's already healed.” Emily rushed over with a smile, hugged Everit's arm, and sweetly shouted: “Master~”
“There is still me, Mr. Evelit.” Ikaruga said.
"You want it?" Everit was a little confused, and then said, "Let's talk about it in the room first."
He took the two of them into the house.
But as soon as he entered the house, Ikaruga straightened his clothes, then knelt down in a dignified manner, lowered his head, joined his fingers, and gently pressed them against the floor.
I just heard her say: "Mr. Evelet, I want to find a job with you and apply to be a clerk in your store."
“Okay.” Everit nodded.
Ikaruga slightly raised the corner of her mouth and said, "This little girl is not talented, please give me some advice in the future!"
“Okay, get up.” Everit said.
Ikaruga raised his head, his chest was all white, which made Everit dizzy. He quickly threw out a card, which turned into a key in the air and was caught by Ikaruga.
“The key to the store and the price are all written down, it's up to you.” Everit didn't care much about the store.
Purpose at the beginning—
It's just because I'm idle and bored, sometimes I'll have some inspiration and come up with some messy stuff.
And these piled up more and more, and finally the warehouse was full.
It would be a pity to throw it away, so I might as well sell it, but who knows, the business is quite good.
"Yes." Ikaruga nodded. She looked back at the sky outside and said, "Mr. Evelit, do you want to make dinner now?"
"No need." Everit shook his head and said, "By the way, where do you live?"
Ikaruga said, "Emily and I will also join the Fairy Tail guild. We have already contacted Miss Erza today and she has arranged a girls' dormitory for us."
“Okay, there's nothing to do today, so you can go back first.” Everit said.
"Hey? Can't you play with Master for a little longer?" Emily said with some disappointment.
"Okay, let's have dinner here." Everit said, "I'm going to take a shower. You can have fun in the store. By the way, don't go to the second floor."
The first floor is a shop, and behind the shop is the yard.
The second floor is Everit's living area.
He values privacy and does not like others to hang out in his bedroom, laboratory, study, etc.
“Yes.” Ikaruga and Emily nodded obediently.
Wait for Everit to go upstairs.
Ikaruga and Emily looked around cautiously, and then Emily waved her little hand towards the empty stairs and said, "Hello, Miss Miko."
“Miss Miko, please give me more advice in the future.” Ikaruga also said.
They heard from Miss Mirajane that Mr. Evelit had an invisible assistant—it was said to be a powerful demon!
No one has ever seen it except Everit!
Only a few people in the guild knew about it, and because of the tacit understanding that no one would speak out, Mirajane could only be sure that besides her, the president and Gildarts also knew about it. As for others, she didn't know. .
But even if you don't know the details, you can still guess a little bit due to some anomalies over the years.
Of course, they all ignored it tacitly.
They will have more interactions with Everit in the future, so it is better to say hello in advance.
"Huh?" Emily suddenly exclaimed. She felt as if her head had been rubbed a few times, but she didn't see anything!
Although the movement was very gentle, it scared her so much that she didn't dare to move, and Ikaruga was also a little nervous.
But nothing unusual happened after that, and the two of them breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that they had the approval of the person.
The water is misty.
Ephrit is taking a bath.
Suddenly it seemed like someone was speaking to him.
“What?” He listened carefully, and after a moment, he exclaimed.
“95-64-95?!”
“So big?!”
"Stop, stop, stop talking!" Everit said quickly: "I'm a teenager, so I can't listen to this, and this is other people's privacy."
“Shut up, you can't even cover your mouth with four hands.”
"Emily's ability is indeed good, very rare." Everit smiled and said: "She may really inherit my deception magic."
“In case my descendant is too stupid to inherit the deception magic, you can still make a contract with her after I die.”
"Everyone is going to die, but it's still early for me. I want to live to be hundreds of years old." Everit said calmly.
"Don't, don't curse me. I have never had any desire to live forever." He is very accepting of ending his life and has no thoughts of everlasting life or forcibly extending his life. It may be because he is young and healthy and does not need to consider these things.
As for whether he will become life-conscious or change his mind when he gets older, that will only happen in seventy or eighty years. Let's talk about it then - at that time, he must have already touched the taboo areas of life.
"Why are you still crying? Well, it's my fault. I shouldn't have said that I will die."
“Oh, if you cry again, I'll throw water on you.”
“Come in!”
Everit jumped out of the bathtub, hugged something, and jumped back again, causing water to splash everywhere.
"Hahah"
Finished taking a bath.
Everit wiped her hair and came downstairs.
It was already dark by this time.
Turtledove and Emily sat obediently, both holding books and reading.
The difference is that Emily is reading a magic book, while Ikaruga is reading "The Evil Shopkeeper Wants No More".
Seeing Everit coming down, Emily put down the book, while Turtledove hid the novel behind her very quickly.
"Let's eat." Everit took out three cards and threw them on the table in front of the two of them, and three steaming dinners appeared.
As Everit sat down and moved his chopsticks, Ikaruga and Emily began to eat with some restraint.
"Delicious!"
As soon as the food entered their mouths, Emily and Ikaruga exclaimed.
"Yeah." Evelit nodded in approval, and then said: "Emily, you can come to me at five o'clock every afternoon from now on. If I'm not at home, then you can move around freely."
"Five o'clock?" Emily asked, "What's the time during the day?"
"My magic is called deception magic." Everit said: "There are not many things you need to learn from me. It is mainly practice and the accumulation of knowledge. As for knowledge."
Ephrit took out a card and threw it out.
A huge bookshelf appeared, filled with many books.
He waved, and the bookshelf turned into cards and flew into his palm. He put the cards on the table and said, "Just read these and have a general understanding."
"So many." Emily couldn't help but swallowed. The bookshelf was taller than a person, and it was too wide to be measured with both hands.
"After all, it is not a type of magic that improves actual combat." Evelit smiled: "From getting started to becoming proficient, you need a lot of theoretical knowledge to support it. If you don't understand theory, you won't be as refined as neurons or even smaller, and you won't be deep into emotions. Even the soul cannot use this magic."
"That's why I asked you to think carefully before - if you have this time, learning other magics will be easier than this."
“No!” Emily picked up the card and said firmly: “I must learn this magic, and I will definitely be able to learn this magic!”
"Yeah." Yevrit nodded, looked at Turtle Dove, and said, "Tell me about your request later. I have some materials that can make you a good knife."
"How can I trouble you?" Turtle Dove was very happy, but wanted to refuse.
"It's just a small thing, just take it as your first month's salary, that's it." Everit's tone was firm and she could not refuse.
"Yes, thank you, Mr. Evelit." Ikaruga said happily.
Night.
Ephrit was lying on the bed. There was something invisible, so he pulled the quilt over him.
It seemed that someone said something to him. He smiled and replied: "Ikaruga is indeed good. She is very strong. She is also a swordsman. She has steady hands and is very agile. She is a rare talent."
There was some expectation in his voice.
“What's rare is that she is very humble. Many strong people of this level have their own pride and ideas, but Ikaruga appears to be strong, but in fact she has a low self-esteem. By the way, she also loves 'dedication'.”
“I just did it casually at first, but I didn't expect that I got a big benefit—”
“She will definitely be my magic assistant!”
Evrit's tone was very happy - after all, over the years, he had been envious of the fact that his colleagues had assistant girls, but he didn't have one, but Ikaruga seemed very suitable!
His magic show will be even better!
It makes me so excited just thinking about it!
The Demon Girl will officially appear in the next chapter [Six Demon Generals]
