Chapter 9: Leaving town and heading to Fairy Tail
Chapter 9: Leaving town and heading to Fairy Tail
After Erza played with her magnetic ability for a while, everyone started today's dinner.
After a while, when everyone had almost eaten, Evan looked at Irene and said softly, "That's right, the time is almost here. I think it's time for us to leave this town."
"Eh? Are you leaving?"
Erza doesn't seem to want to leave here, after all, this is where she grew up.
Evan stroked Erza's little head lightly, and said, "Would you like to go with your brother to a place where we can meet many friends of the same age?"
"...A lot of friends of the same age? Okay!" Erza thought for a moment, then nodded heavily.
Seeing that he had convinced Erza, he looked at Irene again.
"Okay, I know!" Irene smiled and nodded slightly. She supported all of Evan's decisions.
Irene didn't ask any more questions, because she believed in Evan from the bottom of her heart. She knew that Evan must have a reason for them to leave.
A few days later...
Evan, Irene and the others packed up their bags before dawn, and appeared on the edge of the town.
In front of the carriage...
Evan looked at the small town behind him for a long time, and finally looked back, got into the carriage, and under the guidance of Ian and Eden, the carriage moved forward into the distance.
Their goal this time is the Kingdom of Fiore, a permanent neutral country with a population of 17 million, and also the kingdom with the strongest magic power in the entire Ishgar continent.
And what Evan and the others are going to this time is naturally the Mage Guild in the small town of Magnolia in the Kingdom of Fiore, Fairy Tail!
Erza was drowsy in the carriage, and Ilya, who was wearing a black maid outfit, sat beside Erza, recovering the quilt for Erza who kicked off the quilt from time to time.
Irene held a book in her hand and kept flipping through it. This book is the introduction to the Mages Guild in the Ishgar Continent. Although she has lived in this continent for more than 400 years, most of the time, she lives in seclusion in the mountains, so she doesn't know much about the layout of the forces on the mainland.
Evan closed her eyes and rested her mind, adjusting her state.
As the sky gradually brightens...
The small town where Evan and the others lived was gradually waking up. The ordinary town residents opened their doors and prepared to start their daily lives. A basket of bread, and a beautiful letter.
The content of the letter is very short, just a little thanks to the townspeople for their care over the years.
"No way?!"
When the townspeople looked at the letters in their hands and trotted all the way to the bakery, they found that the bakery was empty, and Irene's family had already left.
"Let's go!"
John, who was next door to the bakery, looked at the empty bakery with a complicated expression.
"What? Sad?"
Someone looked at John and joked.
"I'm fine..."
John shook his head. In fact, John had already given up pursuing Irene all these years ago.
For ten years, he did not let of Irene. Over the years, countless wrinkles have appeared on his face, some white hairs have appeared in his hair, and his skin has been burnt red and black because of frequent forging...
But in the past ten years, it seems that Irene has been forgotten, and Irene has not reflected in the slightest in his life. Irene is still Irene, beautiful like a crimson rose, a flower that will never wither.
John had guessed a long time ago that Irene's family is not very ordinary. For ordinary people like him, it is better to live their lives honestly.
"It's better to keep this bakery! If Irene and the others come back, there is still a place to stay. What do you think?" While everyone was whispering and discussing, the mayor of the small town with a gray beard and a cane in his hand asked everyone, seeking their opinions.
"OK!"
"Anyway, this place is useless..."
"Yes, yes! Let's keep it!"
"If Irene, Evan, Erza and the others come back in the future, how sad will it be if there is no place for them to live?"
"Indeed! Indeed!"
"We still want to eat the bread made by Irene again!"
Following the proposal of the mayor of the small town, all the townspeople decided to keep this bakery called Scarlet Goddess.
A group of simple-minded townspeople are looking forward to eating the bread made by Irene again one day...
Time flies...
A week later...
With the horse-drawn carriage driving tirelessly, everyone finally came to the vicinity of the small town of Magnolia.
Compared to the small town where Evan and the others lived before, the small town of Magnolia is much more prosperous, and the streets are full of traffic. It is more like a huge city than a small town.
And at the back of the center of the town, there is the Fairy Tail of the Mages Guild with a long history! At the same time, it is also the destination of Evan and others' operation...
And the carriage of Evan and the others kept driving in front of this guild named Fairy Tail, and then slowly stopped.
"Finally arrived at the place."
Evan looked at the house with a long history in front of him, feeling quite emotional.
"Is it here?"
Irene got out of the carriage and looked at the mage guild in front of her. She didn't need to enter the guild, but just stood outside the door, and she could instantly see through the entire guild.
"Oh~ there are two brats with slightly better strength~. There are a few children with good potential... According to the current standards of this continent, this guild is indeed not bad."
Irene stood outside the door and gave a little evaluation to the guild in front of her.
At the same time...
The two people who were still drinking near the bar in the deepest part of the guild suddenly paused. They stopped their movements as if they sensed something.
"Did you feel it, Gildarts?" On the old bar, a short, little old man dressed like a circus performer was asking the extremely strong and strong demon with short red hair who was chatting with the bar lady in the guild who was sitting next to his instructor.
"Hmm! What a wonderful person! Guild Master!"
The mage named Gildarts put down the wine glass in his hand and looked in the direction of the guild gate.
The next second...
The wooden door of the guild was pushed open...
First came in two lovely children, a boy and a girl, followed by a beautiful woman in casual clothes. The woman's cheeks and figure were in line with the unanimous preferences of the majority of men. Then, there were three lovely girls in maid outfits, one in chef outfits, and one in warrior outfits.
Those three girls obviously follow the lead of the woman in front, and they are obviously servants of the woman.
