Chapter 692 Seiya is flirting with the new girl again.

Fiore Kingdom, Green Resort.

Wearing only a pair of swim trunks, Seiya sat on a deck chair, watching Lucy, Erza, and Juvia playing in the water in their swimsuits not far away, with a peaceful expression on his face.

More than a month has passed since the guild war between Fairy Tail and Phantom Lord.

After the Phantom Lords were forcibly disbanded by the Magic Council, many of the original Phantom Lords mages became homeless.

Since the Phantom Lords already had a bad reputation, and now their guild master Joseph is in jail, the Phantom Lords' mages have become pariahs.

Whether a legitimate mage guild can prosper depends on the strength of its mages, as well as factors such as reputation and fame.

After all, only guilds with a good reputation and strong capabilities can get more work.

Only with a good source of commissions can the guild have better benefits and attract more powerful mages.

The guild "Spectre Dominator" was disbanded, which made its original members pariahs.

Normally, any mage with sufficient strength would have no trouble finding a good mage guild.

The key issue is that the actions of the "Spectre Dominator" are similar to those of some dark guilds. Some legitimate guilds also covet the excellent mages left behind by the Spectre Guild.

However, they also worried that recruiting these mages into their guild might damage their reputation and offend Fairy Tail.
Since the disbandment of Phantom Lord and Seiya's rise to become one of the Ten Wizard Saints, Fairy Tail has become the first true guild in the Kingdom of Fiore.

The presence of two Wizarding Masters from the Ten Wizard Saints propelled Fairy Tail to the height of its prestige and fame.

However, the more famous Fairy Tail became, the less likely any of the original mages of Phantom Lord would dare to take them in.

Without joining a legitimate mage guild, it's difficult to find a job, and without a job, there's no source of income.

一
So Jubilee, one of the original "four elements", quickly fell into homelessness after losing his source of income and met Makarov.

After realizing that Juvia was different from most Phantom Lord mages, had never done anything evil, and was an excellent mage himself, Makarov ultimately chose to take him in.

Juvia, who had just joined the Fairy Tail guild, was initially extremely apprehensive and worried, even though Makarov had taken her in when she had nowhere else to go.

However, she herself was quite aware that as a former enemy of Fairy Tail, it was not surprising that people in the guild disliked her or even rejected and hated her.

So in the first few days after joining the guild, Juvia was always on edge and didn't dare to talk to anyone else in the guild.

Juvia is the "Rain Woman," and it always rains wherever she is. Because of this ability, she never had any playmates when she was a child, so she could only sew teru teru bozu dolls all by herself.

During the few days since joining Fairy Tail, Zhu has been hiding in a corner, observing the others around her.

She soon discovered that the guild atmosphere in "Fairy Tail" was really different from that in "Phantom Lord".

It's always so lively here, and the bond between guild members is something she greatly envies.

On several occasions, Jubilee also mustered up the courage to try and strike up a conversation with other members of the guild.

But when she heard people around her saying things like, "Why is it raining again? It's been raining for days, it's so annoying," Juvia's newly mustered courage was instantly extinguished. "It's okay. It was the same back in Phantom Lord. Apart from Mr. Gajeel occasionally saying a few words to me, everyone else hated rain women like Juvia."

Jubilee was already used to it, so this was nothing to her...

However, just as Juvia was sitting in the corner of the guild, muttering to herself, a voice suddenly rang in her ear, startling her.

"I was just wondering how someone could have gotten to such an inconspicuous corner spot so quickly. Oh, it was you."

If I remember correctly, you should be one of the four elements in Phantom Lord, right? Your name seems to be... Zhu Biji? You've joined Fairy Tail too?

At first, Zhu Biya was quite puzzled when she heard someone talking to her, but when she looked up and saw who it was, she was immediately terrified.

If we were to say who Juvia remembers most vividly from the entire "Fairy Tail" series, then without a doubt, it would be Seiya.

After all, it was this man in front of them who defeated the "Four Elements," and could even be said to have single-handedly dismantled their "Phantom Lords."

Having experienced that previous battle, Juvia still harbors a fear of Seiya's power, so when she saw Seiya sitting down next to her, Juvia's body couldn't help but tremble.

"You don't need to be so afraid of me, do you? Although we were enemies before, since the guild leader invited you to join the guild, it means that your character and strength are not a problem."

Now that you're a member of Fairy Tail, we'll naturally be partners and friends from now on; that's always been the guild's motto.

Partner? Friend? Hearing such unfamiliar words from Seiya's mouth, Juvia was clearly taken aback.

Although she still harbored some fear of Seiya, Juvia wanted to integrate into the lively guild and try to communicate with others, so she finally mustered up her courage and spoke in a soft, mosquito-like voice.

“But Juvia is a rain woman. Even if they don’t mind that I was once one of the ‘Four Elements,’ no one would want to be friends with a rain woman…”

"Rain Woman? So it's because of you that it's been raining in the guild these past few days."

Hearing Seiya's words, Zhu lowered her head even further. She had thought that Seiya would say something that showed his disgust for her, just like the other people she had met before. But what the man next to her said next was completely unexpected.

"In that case, I really have to thank you. Because of the continuous rain, I've been able to slack off in the guild these past few days."

"Doesn't Mr. Seiya hate rain?"

Upon hearing Seiya's words, Juvia asked in astonishment.

"Why should we hate it? Rain nourishes all things and is the source of life for many creatures."

Furthermore, I think your claim of being the Rain Woman is utter nonsense. Even powerful beings like the Ten Wizard Saints and dragons cannot easily influence celestial phenomena. With your meager strength, how could you possibly do that?

The reason why it rains wherever you appear is probably because you have powerful magic, but you can't control it perfectly. Combined with the influence of your mood and other factors, it has become like this.

You need to learn to believe in yourself and accept yourself. After all, even the heaviest rain eventually clears up, doesn't it?
