Fairy Tail: You said you were just acting, are you serious

After Ron rode away on the wind, Ultear lay on the snow for a long time, her thoughts in unprecedented turmoil.

Finally, she steadied her limp body and stood up, then walked into a nearby tavern.

slap~

Urudia finally found a water source and splashed water on his face at the tavern's restroom, both to wash away the grime and to stay awake.

She opened her eyes, looked up at the mirror, and saw that the ink and tear stains on her face had faded with the sewage.

She wore a complicated expression, unsure of what to do after receiving information that contradicted her own understanding.

She then recalled her many memories with her mother, and then remembered Ron's words, which gave her a vague sense of direction.

"Do we have to find Deliora to find out the truth?"

Although she didn't know why exploring Deliora's information would provide the answer, since it was the same order given by her guild master Hades, she decided to search.

At this moment, her eyes were no longer confused. Now, she only wanted to find the motivation to continue and prepare to move forward.

......

Meanwhile, in a town in the north that is always covered in ice and snow.

A boy with spiky black hair was sitting on the edge of a red brick flower bed, with several hydrangea bushes behind him covered in snow.

Beside him was a boy with short white hair, who looked a bit older than the black-haired boy.

The black-haired boy waited with a bored expression, unlike the white-haired boy who looked on with admiration while waiting.

Their eyes were fixed on the fruit vendors ahead, waiting for their master to lead them away.

"Uru, you've taken on another new disciple? So cute! They both look like they'll grow up to be handsome!"

The fruit shop owner was teasing the female customer in front of her, and even covered her mouth and laughed.

Uru is a woman with short, jet-black hair, delicate features, and a curvaceous figure.

Meanwhile, the beautiful Uru was biting into an apple with a helpless expression.

"Grey is very rebellious, and it's giving me a lot of trouble."

"Hey, when they grow up, give one to me."

"I'll give you both! That way I'll have some peace and quiet; they're always making so much noise I can't get any peace."

Just as they were chatting, the white-haired boy Leo behind them asked the black-haired boy Gray beside him a question.

"Gray, how much longer will it take me to surpass Uru?"

Gray, standing to the side, didn't care at all and wore a sour face.

"I'm not interested; all I want is power."

"Once I defeat Deliora, I'll say goodbye to that bitch!"

thump~

Uru, who had apparently settled the bill sometime earlier, suddenly swung a hammer at Gray's head.

"Who are you calling a stinky woman, you brat!"

"When will you teach me powerful magic?"

"I told you, the magic of transformation is a magic of freedom. Once you find your own form, you can be as strong as you want."

"snort!"

Boom!

Uru swung his hammer at Gray's head again, his face contorted in a rage.

"And why take off your clothes in public?!"

"ah?!"

Gray looked down and froze.

He then realized that he had unknowingly taken off his clothes and was left with only his boxer shorts.

"Damn it, it's all your fault! You made me develop weird habits!"

The neighbors who were passing by couldn't help but laugh as they watched the three of them playfully bickering.

Just as they were about to head back, they overheard some conversations on the side of the road.

"By the way, have you heard about Deliora?"

"He seems to have moved to the northern continent, I heard it's somewhere in the Blago area."

Upon hearing this news, Gray's pupils contracted instantly, and his eyes widened.

Anger and hatred welled up on his face, and he unconsciously clenched his fists.

Meanwhile, high in the sky, quite a distance from Blago.

Phew~!

The giant ink-wash bird glides smoothly beneath the gray clouds.

Ron sat cross-legged steadily on the bird's back, and the strong winds were neutralized by Ron's powerful physique.

After discovering news of Deliora in another town, he continued flying towards Blago.

He recalled his conversation with Urutia on the snowfield not long ago.

He originally wanted to force her to come with him, but given that she was an enemy rather than a friend, he wasn't sure if she would plot against him.

I'm not sure if this conversation will influence her thinking.

He hoped she would eventually come to her senses, but if she remained obstinate, he would have no choice but to continue being her enemy.

Ron then stopped thinking about it and started looking at the changes on the panel.

[Infinite Divine Intelligence Triggered Multiple Times]

[Increases maximum magic and mental power by 52 points]

[Talents: Magic Power (C), Mental Strength (C), ...]

[Rank Rating: First-class actor, C-rank mage]

[Current role-playing level: 100%]

He hadn't had time to check beforehand, but when he cleared out the pack of Icefield Wolves, those forty-odd wolves provided him with a full 50 points of his maximum magic and mental power.

He just didn't expect that his battle with Ultear would be interrupted, and that he would be considered to have defeated Ultear, which would also trigger her infinite consciousness, probably because she had lost the desire to fight.

Therefore, by defeating Ultear, Ron gained an additional 2 points to his cap, for a total increase of 52 points.

And so, his magical power and mental strength finally broke through the bottleneck, and his level rating was finally improved.

This improved his rating, which also meant that new prompts appeared in front of him, and he viewed them all at once this time.

Congratulations on your level upgrade! Rewards have been issued.

[Gain 1 chance to draw a card; you can draw at any time, ignoring the cooldown period]

[The gacha countdown has reached the system limit, therefore you have been granted one chance to participate in a limited-time gacha banner that has appeared in the past.]

"Is one draw a day the limit? This system is really stingy."

Ron shook his head. He wasn't too disappointed now, since drawing cards still depended on luck.

This gacha pool doesn't have a pity system; if you're unlucky, no matter how many pulls you do, it won't matter.

As for the opportunity to have a fixed limited-time gacha pool, I haven't seen any good gacha pools to have since the limited-time gacha pools appeared, so I'll leave it for now.

He has used one fixed card pool chance, so he has two left.

There's not enough time to do the fixed limited-time gacha missions yet; I need to accept Gray's mission first before considering this.

"Since we already have a chance to draw cards, let's give it a try."

Ron sighed as he looked at the Naruto world-limited gacha pool, which he hadn't gotten anything from several times in a row.

I've had terrible luck with gamblers; I haven't drawn a single decent card in the last few days.

Ron's gaze then unconsciously shifted to the permanent multiverse role-playing gacha pool.

"Let's try again later, maybe there will be a surprise."

Swish~!
