Fairy Tail: You call this Celestial Magic?!

Chapter 253 Gourmet Research (Please Subscribe!)
Finally, as dusk fell, Moen went to Mira's house with Lucy and Emerald. He had brought his two disciples with him; he couldn't just leave them behind and run off with others.

Mirajane naturally wouldn't refuse, otherwise it would be too deliberate. Anyway, she has younger siblings at home, and it's impossible for her and Moen to be alone together. So it wouldn't matter if two more apprentices came along.

Lucy and Emerald came along as guests, which gave Lisanna and Elfman some company and allowed her and Moen more time alone.

'Plan is in place!'
Mira's expression as she looked at Lucy and Emerald had turned into a gentle smile, which sent a chill down the spines of the two girls.

Although Mirajane has undergone a huge change since her last S-rank mission almost resulted in disaster, she has become more peaceful and gentle, no longer so aggressive, no longer fighting with Erza every day, and no longer always looking like she's in a hurry.

But the impressions Mirajane had left on them in the past made them see her gentle face now and imagine that beneath that smile was still the wicked, delinquent girl with a sinister grin.

It's as if behind the gentle and dignified Mira Jane in front of you, there's another delinquent girl named Mira with a single ponytail, wearing a tank top and hot pants, raising her fist, exuding demonic energy, and laughing strangely with "hehehe." Thinking about it this way, even the red dress Mira is wearing seems to have become glaringly bright.

"Sigh~"

Emerald and Lucy exchanged a glance, both seeing the fear in each other's eyes. Even though there were two of them, their presence was completely suppressed, which could only mean that they hadn't yet adapted to the current Mirajane.

"Please have a seat, I'll go cook."

After entering the house, Mira smiled gently and told Moen to bring Lucy and Emerald to sit down wherever they liked. She had to cook, so she couldn't chat with Moen and the others.

However, she didn't need to accompany them. Lisanna and Elfman soon peeked out of the room, having heard that someone had come to visit.

"Moenge! Lucy! Emerald!"

The two happily came down and sat down to chat with the three of them. Lisanna became the center of attention because she was also going to take over from Elo.

"Hehe, I'll just be the mascot. I'm not a good cook, so I definitely won't cook. If you want to eat any delicious food, you'll have to go when my sister is on duty. It's no use asking me."

Lisanna stuck out her tongue. Her job was pretty routine, just registering task assignments and such.

"That's quite impressive, considering how tedious the work is."

Jade spoke up, aiming to be a high-EQ supporter, but what she said was not wrong. Fairy Tail is growing bigger and bigger, with more and more missions and requests, so being the "signboard girl" is definitely not an easy job.

This is why Airo stayed. She was very responsible and wouldn't leave until she had thoroughly taught Mirajane and Lisanna.

No matter what, she's the mascot of "Fairy Tail," so her sense of belonging to the guild is unquestionable. She won't get married until she's properly trained her successor. It's heartbreaking.

When the topic of Ai Luo leaving the guild to get married came up, everyone couldn't help but feel a little sad.

The last time we talked about this was at Mira's house. Back then, we laughed at Airo for not having a boyfriend. But now, she's really getting married and leaving the guild to focus on her family.

"Time flies."

Moen couldn't help but sigh, thinking back now, even Natsu has been with the guild for more than five years.

The scene of that wild boy being taken in is still vivid in my mind; now he's already a well-known "Fire Dragon."

There's still no news about the "Fire Dragon King" Natsu is looking for, but he's already become known as the "Fire Dragon" in people's mouths. That's one way; maybe his "Fire Dragon Father" will come looking for him after hearing his reputation. As the group chatted, Moen got up and left, entering the kitchen where he saw Mira wearing an apron and diligently preparing ingredients.

"Do you need help?"

After Mira looked up at him with a puzzled expression, Moen smiled and spoke.

"No"

Just as Mira was about to refuse, Moen picked up an apron, put it on, and walked over to the sink to start washing vegetables.

"Don't worry, although I don't have any talent for cooking, I'm not so bad that I can't even enter the kitchen. I can help out, and I've been researching food recently."

Moen spoke as he helped wash the vegetables.

"Studying food?"

Moen's words surprised Mirajane. She really didn't know that Moen had such a hobby. Moreover, Moen was indeed not good at cooking. It wasn't that he couldn't cook or didn't know how, but the food he made was just very ordinary and average. What kind of gourmet food could he possibly research?
Moen has never been the kind of man with superb culinary skills who can win a woman's heart through her stomach. Asking him to create food in another world is really asking too much of him, since he doesn't even recognize all the seasonings in that world.

But even if you haven't eaten pork, you've surely seen pigs run, right? Moen has eaten out before and watched cooking videos before. Just because he can't cook doesn't mean others can't.

"This culinary research requires your cooperation. I will provide the general ingredients and describe the approximate taste and appearance of the dish, and then you will refine and prepare it."

Moen raised a finger and spoke of his brilliant idea: it would be a waste not to make good use of a talented little chef like Mira. He believed that with Mira's culinary skills, she would definitely be able to replicate the dishes he was familiar with.

"That sounds really interesting!"

Mira's eyes lit up, and she seemed quite interested in the suggestion. She enjoyed cooking, so she didn't think Moen was deliberately making things difficult for her; she genuinely thought it would be fun.

"I knew you'd be interested."

Moen smiled and winked at Mira. He wouldn't say that this was a project specifically prepared for Mira, but the girl should understand.

"I'll get angry if all the dishes you're talking about are unreliable."

Mira wrinkled her nose cutely and spoke very seriously, looking like she was doomed if Moen dared to play her tricks.

It's clear that she's really looking forward to working on this project with Moen, where Moen will come up with the ideas and she will bring them to fruition. This project is probably just between the two of them, right?
"Mirajane!"

As Mira blushed slightly, an uninvited guest barged into the kitchen, sounding rather angry.

"Didn't we agree that we'd be having a cooking class today?"

Erza, with her red hair and armor, frowned and spoke with displeasure. Then she saw Moen and Mira turn to look at her. Moen looked puzzled, while Mira seemed a bit dazed, as if she didn't remember anything about it.
