Simultaneous travel: invincible from the beginning of the anime!

Chapter 693 You seem to have a lot of rivals in love...

Juvia was clearly deeply moved after hearing Seiya's words.

"Great, the sky has finally cleared up."

"You know what, even though it's annoying that it keeps raining, the air after the rain is exceptionally fresh and cool."

Hearing the murmurs around her, Jubilee looked up at the window in surprise and quickly realized that the rain that had been falling steadily had indeed stopped.

And the rainbow hanging in the clear sky looked exceptionally beautiful.

"Mr. Seiya..."

Juvia looked at the rainbow outside the window with a longing expression on her face. Just as she was about to express her gratitude to Seiya beside her, she realized that the figure that had been sitting next to her had disappeared without her noticing.

And soon, Juvia saw Ms. Mira, who was very popular in the guild, and suddenly walked up to her and said, "You are Ms. Juvia, who recently joined the guild, right? Did you see where the man who was just sitting here went?"

Faced with the question from the guild's most popular female idol, Juvia regained her previous anxious expression and said, "If you mean Mr. Seiya, he was indeed here just now."

But for some reason, in the blink of an eye, he disappeared somewhere.

Upon hearing Juvia's reply, Mira also showed a sullen expression and said, "Did that guy Seiya get away again? I can't stand him. He always slacks off and avoids work."

Ms. Juvia, actually I have a pretty good job offer here that should suit you quite well. I wonder if you'd be interested?

From that day on, Juvia's impression of Seiya completely changed.

In Juvia's memory, Seiya had always been a terrifying person. After all, he was so young yet possessed the strength to defeat President Joseph and was awarded the title of "Ten Wizard Saints".

However, through continued observation, Juvia discovered that Seiya's personality was not only not scary, but also very gentle.

Despite possessing great strength and talent, he lacks any arrogance and is remarkably down-to-earth.

She is gentle yet strong, and extremely considerate and caring towards her companions. This same applies to newcomers like her who have just joined the guild.

As for its drawbacks, well, there are some. Just as Ms. Mira said, Mr. Seiya uses magic to reduce his presence and avoid work.

And in order to avoid being discovered by Miss Mira, he would always find an inconspicuous corner to hide in.

And it was for this reason that Juvia often sat with Seiya.

One of them was avoiding work, while the other was simply socially anxious. After a while, their relationship actually improved quite a bit.

Since that day, whenever Juvia had free time, she would arrive at the guild early and find the most inconspicuous corner to stay in.

If she were to "bump into" someone, she could happily chat with that person all day long until Miss Mira came to catch her.

As they talked more, Juvia's personality became more cheerful, and since she could fully control her magic, it no longer rained heavily every time she appeared.

However, Seiya soon realized that something was wrong.

When he first met Juvia, he only saw her as someone like his childhood friends who had just joined the guild. People like Erza, Gray, and Cana were all as quiet and reserved as Juvia when they first came to Fairy Tail, and even seemed out of place.

Considering that the other person had already joined their guild and would be one of their partners in the future, and that they just happened to run into the other person in the corner, Seiya decided to give them some advice.

But in the days that followed, Seiya discovered that even though Juvia had resolved her inner conflict and started to adapt to the guild's atmosphere, why did she still wait for him in the corner every time?

Just kidding, he's not a professional chat partner. He likes to hide in the corner to slack off and avoid work.

But every time he chats with Juvia, the magic that makes him less noticeable is greatly reduced in effectiveness!
Therefore, Seiya believed that although Juvia's original inner conflict had been resolved, she had contracted another illness.

Because he reached out to help her when she was most helpless, Juvia saw him as her savior and developed a certain dependence on him.

But how could this be! Seiya's original intention was to get Juvia to accept him and gradually integrate him into Fairy Tail.

But now Juvia doesn't communicate with him but only with him. What's the difference between that and before?
So, in order to change Juvia's mind, when Lucy invited Seiya to go to the resort together, Seiya resolutely said that he would take Juvia with him.

Lucy invites Seiya to the resort to thank everyone for helping her during the guild war.

After the Phantom Lords disbanded, Lucy, on the advice of Seiya, Natsu, and others, returned home and talked with her father, thus resolving their past grievances.

Therefore, to thank Seiya and the others for their help, Lucy invited everyone to visit this resort.

Lucy had originally invited Mila as well, but Mila was too busy with her front desk job and had recently taken on a cover model job, so she didn't have time to come.

Thinking that it would be a waste not to use the tickets, Seiya suggested that they could bring Juvia along.

Seiya's reason for bringing Juvia along was simple: he wanted Juvia to interact more with other people so that she wouldn't feel like she was special.

Putting aside other aspects for now, Lucy and Natsu's team has a strong personal charm and infectious energy.

Therefore, Seiya believes that as long as Juvia spends more time with Lucy and the others, she will soon become friends with the other members of the guild and gradually integrate into the community.

And as it turned out, Seiya's idea was absolutely right. With Lucy and Natsu's carefree and outgoing personalities, they didn't care at all about Juvia's original identity as a "Phantom Lord" mage, and they quickly became friends.

However, during the outing, Lucy noticed that Juvia was occasionally glancing at Seiya, and quickly realized something was amiss.

"Juvia, you wouldn't be having an affair with Seiya..."

Before Lucy could finish speaking, Happy, who had flown by, had already provided the assist, sticking out his tongue and saying, "They're having an affair~"

"Miss Lucy, you wouldn't happen to also have feelings for Lord Seiya..."

Seeing Juvia's instantly hostile gaze, Lucy quickly shook her head like a rattle-drum and said, "No, no, although Seiya helped me a lot and I am very grateful to him, it's not this kind of feeling."

However, Juvia, your enemies are all very powerful. I don't think you might be a match for them..."

As Lucy said those words, she couldn't help but recall the scene where Erza and Mira were at odds.
