Chapter 165 Lucy: What? ! You want me to stop Natsu at a critical moment?
The next day.
"What work should I do next?!"
Natsu stood in front of the guild's task board, looking at the task lists one after another in front of him, his brows furrowed tightly, with a hint of anxiety in his eyes.
"Anyway, it's not okay to continue like this!"
"All the money has been used for compensation, and I almost have no money to eat..."
"Next, I have to find a job with a slightly higher pay."
"That's it! Kill the thieves and get a reward of 160,000 J!"
Natsu said as he took down the task list to eliminate the thieves from the board.
"Grandpa President, something bad has happened."
"My father, he, my father..."
Not long after Natsu took down the mission to eliminate the thieves from the mission board, Macao's son Romeo, with tears in his eyes, ran all the way into the Fairy Tail guild hall and came to the president of the Fairy Tail guild. Karloff spoke nervously in front of him.
"What happened?"
At this moment, Makarov was holding a pipe and smoking it. When he saw Romeo in front of him, there was a hint of doubt in his expression...
It stands to reason that with Romeo's father Macao's current strength, he can travel unimpeded throughout the entire Kingdom of Fiore...
He should not do anything that would worry his son Romeo.
"My father, Makao, had a quarrel with Uncle Wakaba last night because of a small conflict..."
"They all believe that the reason why they lost to Brother Natsu in yesterday's competition was because the other party was too weak and became a drag on them."
"So they ended up having a fight..."
"Of course the final result is no winner!"
"But both of them think that it's because they are too familiar with each other and can't defeat each other, which is why they can't tell the winner..."
"So they formed a team and took over the task of going to Huckabe Mountain to conquer the Warcraft Balkan, and decided to see who could conquer more Warcraft."
"The one who defeats more will prove that he is stronger than the other person."
Romeo wiped away his tears while telling Makarov, the president, what happened yesterday.
"Now, something serious has happened."
When Makarov heard this, his expression suddenly changed.
I saw Makarov looking around the guild, and then asked: "Hey, kids, are Lebby and Bisca in the guild right now?!"
"Have any of you seen Rebby and Bisca?!"
"Lebby and Bisca? I see the records here show that they have gone out to do missions with their respective magister teams. I am afraid they will not be able to come back in a short time."
"President, Rebby's lane engine team and Bisca's Osprey team all went out to do missions yesterday..."
In this regard, the magisters in the guild answered Makarov's question after some exchanges.
"What about other magister teams above T3 level?!"
"No matter who it is, as long as someone is here..."
Makarov frowned and continued to ask.
"Lakusus, including the Thunder Gods, are still performing missions outside..."
"Because Eric really couldn't stand Wo Lian, after completing the task handover in the guild yesterday, he set off from the guild before nightfall to do a new task before it got dark."
"Gray and Leon seemed to be stimulated by Natsu's greatly increased strength. Yesterday they followed their senior sister Urrutia and master Urru out to continue practicing!"
"As for everyone else above level T3, none of them are in the guild at the moment."
The magisters in the guild asked each other and answered Makarov helplessly.
"It's all over now."
Seeing this, Makarov frowned tightly, with a hint of gloom hidden in his eyes.
"What happened?"
At this moment, Lucy, who had just rented a room in the town, returned to the guild, planning to find a task to do...
However, as soon as Lucy entered the guild, she saw Makarov, the guild president, asking everyone about something in a panic, so she asked with confusion: "Why does the guild president look so flustered? ! ”
"Lucy, you're here~"
Lisanna, who is currently working as an employee and poster girl in the guild, saw Lucy coming to the Fairy Tail Guild. She greeted her with a smile and explained: "Guild Master, he is suffering from a headache because no one can use him. It’s because Wakaba and Makao-senpai have taken over the task of going to the Hakbe Mountains to defeat the monster ‘Balkan’, and the president is hoping that someone can go to the Hakbe Mountains to stop them~”
"Eh?!"
"Why?"
"Isn't it a good thing to conquer Warcraft?"
Lucy was stunned for a moment, looked at Lisanna and asked.
"If it is a normal crusade against Warcraft, it is indeed a good thing..."
"But Wakaba and Macao made a bet to see whoever kills more monsters will be stronger. In this case, the nature will completely change..."
"After all, with the strength of Wakaba and Makao, if they let their hands and feet loose, they might be able to kill all the monsters in the Huckabe Mountains!"
"In this case, not only will people in other guilds have no tasks to complete, but it will also cause the elimination of certain species in the area."
Lisanna had a helpless smile on her face.
"Ah?!"
"Is it just an ordinary game that will lead to regional and genocide?!"
"Are all the magisters of Fairy Tail Guild monsters?"
"But this is indeed consistent with the Fairy Tail Guild's style of conduct."
After a brief silence, Lucy continued to complain.
"If you just want to call Wakaba and Makao back, wouldn't it be okay to just send someone over to notify them?!"
After Lucy thought for a while, she looked at Lisanna and asked.
"It won't work~"
"After Wakaba and Senior Makao were beaten on the head, ordinary magisters could not get close to the two of them. It would be good not to be involved in their wanton magic power, let alone stop their fight and kill them. The two of them were brought back by force.”
Lisanna sighed, with helplessness in her eyes.
"It's true..."
When Lucy heard this, she seemed to think of the magic that erupted when Wakaba fought with Makao and Natsu yesterday...
Although Wakaba and Makao were instantly killed by Natsu with one punch, the sense of oppression they carried was definitely not something that ordinary magisters could possess.
"By the way, isn't Natsu here?!"
Then, Lucy seemed to see something. Her eyes suddenly lit up. She pointed at Natsu, who was in a daze in front of the mission board not far away, and asked with a little doubt: "With Natsu's strength, he should be able to hit him on the head." Wakaba and Makao-senpai were brought back to the guild by force, right? After all, Natsu defeated Wakaba and Makao-senpai with just one move!"
"Of course Natsu has the strength to defeat Wakaba and Makao in one move."
"But Natsu will not listen to the president's words! If Natsu goes out to find Wakaba and Makao, it may cause more serious problems, maybe?!"
"For example, Natsu also joined the fight between Wakaba and Macao, and the three of them went on a killing spree in the Huckleberry Mountains, competing to see who could kill more monsters..."
Lisanna still knew Natsu's character very well.
To be precise, everyone in the entire Fairy Tail Guild has a thorough understanding of Natsu's character. They know that if Natsu takes action, it will definitely not be a problem of species extinction in the mountains. If Natsu gets high, I'm afraid it will happen. Maybe a few more towns will be demolished.
"Ahahaha..."
"That's actually true." "With Natsu's character, he can indeed do these things..."
Lucy smiled awkwardly and said helplessly.
"Right..."
Immediately afterwards, Lucy seemed to have thought of something. Her eyes lit up and she said excitedly: "By the way, you can let other people go with Natsu! As long as that person, at the critical moment, persuades Natsu to accept Isn’t it enough to use your hands?”
"This will not only ensure the return of seniors Wakaba and Macao, but also prevent greater disasters in the Kingdom of Fiore."
When Lucy said this, her voice paused slightly.
In about a few seconds...
"So, Lisanna, do you have an answer in your mind regarding the candidate who will go to the Huckabee Mountains with Natsu?!"
Lucy asked, looking at Lisanna.
"Hey! This method is really feasible."
"As for the choice, I do have one in my heart now..."
Lisanna didn't seem to expect that Lucy could actually think of such a clever trick. After she nodded sharply, she turned to look at Makarov, who looked restless not far away, and said loudly: "Makarov President Husband, now I have a good way for Wakaba and Makao to return to the guild with peace of mind before they make a big mistake.”
"What way?!"
Hearing this, Makarov raised his head and asked.
"That is, let Natsu, the only one who has not gone out to do the mission, a member of T3 level or above, go to the Huckabe Mountains to persuade Wakaba and Makao-senpai to come back."
Lisanna explained to Makarov with a smile on her face.
"Let Natsu go?!"
"No, I absolutely disagree..."
"If Natsu goes, this game of hunting monsters will only become more troublesome..."
Makarov immediately shook his head when he heard that Lisanna had chosen the candidate to bring Wakaba and Makao back from the Hakbe Mountains.
Are you kidding me? !
If Natsu is asked to go to the Huckabe Mountains, not to mention the monkey monsters in the mountains, even the wild dogs passing by will have to eat the Flame Dragon's Collapse Fist before leaving...
Makarov was in enough trouble right now and didn't want to be tortured by Natsu anymore.
"Actually, President, you can ask Lucy to follow Natsu, and urge Natsu to bring Wakaba and Makao back after finding them, and try not to cause any complications..."
Lisanna looked at Makarov and said.
"Eh?"
"You said you wanted me to stop Natsu at the critical moment? Are you really or not?"
Lucy was stunned. She was just casually mentioning to Lisanna that she could ask others to follow Natsu to the Huckabee Mountains and keep a close eye on Natsu. Don't do anything that would cause complications. The result would be nothing more. In no time, Lisanna sold her out? !
Lucy: "Lisanna, give me back my trust in you!"
"President, I can't persuade Natsu..."
Lucy looked at Makarov and said.
"This is really a good idea."
Who knew that after listening to Lisanna's words, Makarov's eyes lit up and he said.
"Eh?!"
Lucy was stunned, her face was speechless.
At this moment, Lucy's expression seemed to be asking Makarov: "Really or not? I'll stop Natsu?!"
"After all, Lucy, you and Natsu are members of the same magician team!"
Makarov said, extending his thumb towards Lucy.
"Since when did I become a member of the same magician team as Natsu?"
Lucy's eyes widened and she asked at a loss.
"It was indeed not..."
Makarov said, and took out a Magister Team registration form. In front of Lucy, he wrote the names of Lucy and Natsu in the column of Magister Team members: "But now they are I am the president of the Fairy Tail Guild. I have the final say in everything in the guild. I say that you are members of a magician team, so you are.”
"President, didn't you commit a foul?"
Lucy didn't expect Makarov to do these little tricks in front of her, without even a perfunctory cover-up, and directly told her what the guild leader's rights were.
Anyway...
Just like this, after Lucy was tricked by Makarov, she was put on a train to the Huckabe Mountains by a group of magicians from the Fairy Tail Guild.
"Woooooooo..."
On the train, Natsu's face was ashen, he leaned on the back of his chair, his eyes rolled white, as if he had passed out.
"Eh?!"
At this moment, Lucy, who had already boarded the train, still seemed to have not realized what had happened. She looked at a loss.
"The Huckabee Mountains are here!"
It wasn't until more than an hour later that the conductor announced that the Huckabee Mountains had arrived, which made Lucy calm down and take Natsu off the train.
Ever since.
Lucy, Natsu, and Happy stood in the white storm, messy.
"So, I was really tricked, right?!"
Lucy smiled bitterly and murmured to herself.
"Love!"
Happy echoed after listening to Lucy's soliloquy.
"Damn stupid cat!"
"Don't agree with me here!"
Lucy glanced at Habi with disdain and said angrily.
"Anyway, just bring Wakaba and Macao back, right?!"
Natsu asked as he looked at the vast snow-capped mountains in front of him.
"You just found out?!"
"Speaking of which, how are we going to find traces of two people in such a huge mountain range, despite the violent storm and snow?!"
Lucy looked puzzled. From her point of view, searching for traces of two humans in the boundless mountains was simply impossible.
This is like looking for a needle in a haystack, and is simply unreasonable.
At this moment, Lucy already regretted what she had said before.
"It's very simple! As long as all the mountains are flattened, can't we find it?!"
In this regard, the extremely smart Natsu seems to have thought of a good way.
"I knew it would end up like this."
When Lucy heard this, she smiled sadly and said messily.
First update! I finally changed the title of the book, haha.
