Fairy Tail: I'm Not the Most Terrifying Mage

"Okay, then it'll be the three of us."

Yefried said.

“Five,” Rector and Frosty stepped forward.

“You don’t count.” Yefrit shook her head directly: “I don’t fish with cats.”

Everyone: "."

Yefrit reiterated, "You may come along, but you are not allowed to bring fishing rods."

Yevlit, who had competed with Harpies in fishing many times, knew just how skilled these cats were at fishing.

“Okay.” Rector and Frosty didn’t seem to mind.

Stinger and Roger didn't even have fishing rods, so they had to buy them at a fishing tackle shop.

When Yefrit saw that they had only bought relatively inexpensive fishing gear, she couldn't suppress her smile.

They really are both amateurs!

Mirajane shook his head helplessly.

Faced with this situation, Yefrit's intelligence was about the same as Natsu's on ordinary days.

Yefried wasn't incapable of fishing, but he genuinely lacked the talent. It was as if, when he was reincarnated, he allocated all his skill points to other more practical areas, completely forgetting to allocate even a single point to his own hobby.

Chapter 258, Yefried: Whose subordinate is this?!

The afternoon is spent in different ways for everyone.

On Erza's side—the battle is fierce.

Meanwhile, on Natsu's side—a sweet and heartwarming scene: Natsu and Lucy strolled through the streets with Asuka, attracting many comments about how "perfectly matched" they were, making Lucy blush. But when she shyly looked at Natsu, she discovered he had seemingly lost his mind and was playing like a complete child. This made Lucy feel like her affections had been wasted, and though she wanted to get angry, she couldn't find a reason. In the end, she deliberately let Natsu bump into her, then kicked him hard. Natsu just laughed it off, completely unperturbed, which made Lucy feel a little guilty.

Over in Yevlit—dark clouds loomed.

"Ahem." Roger coughed twice.

Stinger turned his head in confusion and found Roger facing him, but winking and gesturing for him to look at Yefried.

Stinger's gaze passed over Rogge and looked over there—

Yefried was staring intently at the river; if you looked closely, you would notice his cheeks trembling slightly.

Next to him is Mirajane.

previously--

Yefrit was still lying in the chair, looking relaxed and confident. Mirajane washed her hands and sat down next to him, feeding him grapes—a scene that would make Stinger and Roger, two single guys, want to explode with envy.

It can be done gradually.

Stinger and Roger caught the fish one by one.

Yefrit shook her head, refusing Mirajane's offer to feed her, then sat up straight and began to prepare for battle.

And at this time——

Yefrit had half her buttocks on the stool, her whole body leaning forward with her neck stretched out, looking like a goose monster about to transform.

Current record -

Jefried: 3 stripes, each two fingers wide.

Stinger: 11, all larger than a palm.

Rogge: 4, but the smallest weighs over three jin and the largest weighs seven jin.

Frosty and Rector, bored out of their minds, used their tails to catch two large fish weighing over twenty pounds each. Then, under Yefried's gaze that seemed to want to eat the cat, they deliberately lost the big fish—not a big deal, they were just fish of that weight, and for the two cats, it was as easy as catching small crucian carp.

"Hey--"

Mirajane sighed softly.

Yefrit's emotions are probably even more intense now than when she fought Acnologia.

His whole face turned red, his fists were clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white, and the veins on his neck were bulging.

Mirajane recalled for a moment and then realized that since Lucy joined Fairy Tail, there had never been a battle that made Yefrit's veins bulge to this extent!

‘Gudong——’

Stinger swallowed hard.

He had a feeling.

If they don't do something to salvage the situation now, he and Rogge might not be able to return to the guild safely.

Roger nodded slightly as well.

Then--

"Hey—" Roger started to stretch, his upper body bent backward, and then his legs involuntarily stretched forward, and then he "accidentally" kicked into the bucket of fish.

"Wow--"

The bucket tipped over into the river, and the fish inside swam away.

"Ah!" Roger exclaimed, and hurriedly plunged into the river as if it were extremely difficult to catch these fish. He shouted, "Ah, my fish! I've been fishing for so many years, and this is the first time I've caught so many!"

As he spoke, he started grabbing at things haphazardly in the water.

"Rogge!" Stinger shouted, having learned his lesson. "I'll help you!"

But he accidentally kicked over his own bucket, and his fish returned to the river.

"Ah, my fish!"

Stinger also jumped into the river, trying to "save" him.

Of course it's a waste of time.

Yefried turned around abruptly, her eyes wide with surprise.

Mirajane couldn't hold it in any longer, covering her mouth and struggling to suppress her laughter: "Those two lads are trying too hard!"

Frosty and Rector were speechless: Stinger and Roger, how come we never noticed how flexible you two were before?

Stinger and Rogue: Nonsense—even if they angered Natsume and Gajeel, they'd only get a punch at most. But if they angered this one... this one is someone who makes anyone tremble just thinking about her! Even their two fearless idols have repeatedly warned them: Don't mess with Yefrit, or you'll experience the most regrettable thing in your life!

“What two idiots,” Yefrit laughed.

He quickly moved his bucket further away to avoid repeating the same mistake the two men made.

Mirajane: "." Yefrit's IQ in these kinds of things is usually about the same as Natsu's.

Seeing Yefritte smile, Stinger and Roger finally managed to exchange a glance amidst their "struggle": this desperate act was almost over!

So the two of them climbed out of the river, looking utterly dejected and heartbroken.

Roger pounded the ground: "I regret it—if this were the case, wouldn't I be an Air Force pilot today?!"

Yefried laughed gleefully, "Young people are still inexperienced. Look at me, I put the bucket a little further away."

“Oh, I had no idea about such things,” Roger cried. “It seems I still have a lot to learn from Mr. Yefrit.”

"Damn it—" Stinger pounded his chest and said, "I'm an innocent victim here too! I was trying to save Roger, but I ended up getting shot myself!"

“So you see—” Yefrit laughed, “young people are just impulsive and don’t pay attention to details.”

“Oh—” Stinger said, wiping away his tears, “It was Mr. Yefriedt’s reprimand.”

"What a pity." At this moment, seeing Stinger and Roger putting on such a great show, Yefried, who had previously shown signs of an impending volcanic eruption, now had a happy smile on his face. Frosty and Rector quickly said, "It seems that Mr. Yefried has won today."

We can't wait for Yefrit to react!

Stinger, Roger, Rector, and Frosty all looked at Mirajane with the same reverence one would show when looking at a goddess descending from heaven.

Miss Mirajane—it's all up to you now!

Mirajane suppressed a smile, took Yefrit's arm, and said, "It's getting late, the sun is about to set, let's go back and rest. You're coming to the orphanage with me tonight."

“Okay.” Yevlite nodded.

"call--"

Stinger and Roger both breathed a sigh of relief.

Crisis averted!

The two exchanged a glance and wiped away their sweat, feeling a sense of unease even more intense than when they fought the dragon.

the other side.

"Yay—" Asuka jumped for joy.

"That's how you make enough money!"

After eating and playing for a while, Asuka wanted to do some commissions to earn some money.

So Harpy went to find a few simple commissions.

With Natsu and Lucy's help, it was naturally easy to complete.

"What does Asuka want to buy? Toys?" Lucy asked curiously.

"That's not childish at all!" Asuka said. "I'm not a three-year-old anymore!"

Harpy retorted, "You're only six years old."

"La la la——"

Asuka, her chubby little hands clutching the money tightly, hummed a nursery rhyme as she led Natsu and the others to a pawnshop.

She pressed her face against the shop window, looking at a crystal ball—inside which were snowmen, the moon, a castle, and stars.

“Fifty thousand J.” Lucy saw the price.

The commission they made was exactly that amount; Asuka's math skills are pretty good.

"I want this!"

Asuka successfully bought it, and then, holding the crystal ball, she walked back to the guild, feeling very happy.

"Is there anything special about this?" Lucy asked.
