A magic merchant infiltrating Fairy Tail

"Exactly! At this point, why go back to the dorm?!"

After a long while, the voices of two people came from ahead again.

"Um...that...ah—you seem to have arrived."

"that……"

"what happened?"

"No, it's nothing. Be careful on your way back!"

"Ok!"

After staring at each other for a long time, the two turned and left.

"No way?! That's it?! That's it?!" Kira grabbed Loki by the neck and shook him violently. "I watched all day, and this is how you guys end it?! You failed to cause any trouble, and now you haven't even gotten enough of your lovey-dovey moments! What the hell were they doing all day?!?"

The two dragged Alzak, who was hopping and skipping towards them, into the grove of trees and attacked him with punches and kicks.

Kira: "You bastard! Why didn't you take the opportunity to hug me just now?!"

Rocky: "Exactly! How long are you going to drag this stalemate out?!"

Still immersed in joy, Alzak was completely taken aback and was utterly bewildered by the two of them: "Kira, Loki? Wait... why are you two here?"

Kira: "You brat, is being in love really that great? Huh!"

Rocky: "Don't you men know how to take the initiative?!"

Alzak sat on the ground like a bullied schoolchild: "But...but I don't know Bisca's feelings yet...what if..."

Isn't that clear enough?

Is it really a case of those involved being blinded by their own perspective?

"Idiot!" Kira grabbed Alzak by the collar and yelled, "What are you afraid of? If you like someone, you should confess! Even if you fail, you can at least make a fool of yourself and have everyone laugh! It's best to do it when the guild is at its busiest, so everyone can..."

"Kira, you bastard, just shut up!"

Rocky immediately covered Kira's mouth and then taunted Alzac, "If you don't talk, Bisca is mine, how about that?"

"Huh? No way!"

Rocky's provocation was clearly effective; Alzac's eyes changed instantly, becoming as focused as when he fired a gun: "Bisca is mine!"

"Isn't this a great momentum!" Kira broke free from Loki's grasp. "Go and talk to her face to face!"

After saying that, he leaned close to Alzak and whispered, "Let me tell you, today at the water park, Rocky was leering at Bisca. If we hadn't stopped him, he almost would have gone and caused trouble!"

"What did you say?!"

Alzak was so caught up in Kira's words that he didn't even think about why the two of them were at the water park.

High spirits and soaring momentum!

……

On the other side, Bisca ran into Erza as soon as she entered the dormitory.

"How about going on a date with Alzac?"

One sentence made Bisca blush: "Huh? You... how did you know?"

“Everyone’s talking about it,” Erza said casually. “I heard it’s been all over the guild since yesterday. A lot of people followed you all day today: Mira, Cana, Kira, Loki, Elfman, Marcus, Warren… I didn’t go because I had other things to do with Natsu and the others.”

Bisca was taken aback, then blushed deeply: "What?! Everyone... why didn't I notice at all?"

"Because you guys had a lot of fun!" Kana and the others, who had been following her all day, walked in from outside, looking at Biska with a teasing gaze. "A girl immersed in love can hardly notice the existence of anyone else!"

"I was so disappointed! There wasn't even a goodbye kiss! I was really looking forward to it..."

"I'm telling you, Kira definitely did this on the water slide!"

"What movie did that guy even pick? Couples should choose romance movies for dates! What an idiot!"

"Keep it up, Bisca!"

When are you two getting married?

Surrounded by everyone, Bisca's mind went blank. After a long while, she stammered, "Actually... we haven't officially become a couple yet..."

The sound was very soft, but everyone heard it.

Erza said, "Alzak seems like a shy person, maybe you'll have to take the initiative!"

"But...I don't have the courage..."

"How could you say such a thing?" Erza roared. "You don't even have the courage to confess? That's the behavior of a weakling! We're Fairy Tail!"

Password correct √

Back in her room, Bisca collapsed onto the bed. Erza's words struck her like a blow to the head.

After pondering for a long time, she took a deep breath and made a momentous decision: "How about... I confess to him tomorrow!"

Chapter 117 The Remaining Members of the Spectre

"Ah, it's another sunny day!"

Early in the morning, Kira pushed open the door, stretched, and then turned around and shouted, "You better watch the shop! If you've delayed any customers, you can get out of here!"

"Yes...yes...I understand!" Dispel answered weakly, without looking up, leaning on the counter of Hope House, holding a novel from Kira's shop in his hands.

He looked several years older, with a few strands of red hair turning white, heavy dark circles under his eyes, and a gaunt face, completely lacking the spiritedness he had when he first appeared.

After several days and nights of intense reading, Dispel was completely immersed in the world of the novel. He felt uncomfortable if he didn't read a novel for a day, as if something was missing from his heart.

Women might slow down my sword-drawing speed, but novels won't!

Ten days ago, Dispel would never have believed he would say such a thing, but when Kira advised him not to get too obsessed, he blurted it out without hesitation, then cried, then laughed, acting like a complete idiot.

Kira was initially a little confused, but after thinking about it, he roughly understood Dispel's feelings.

For twenty years, a person whose heart, eyes, and hands have been filled with nothing but swords and knives has become addicted and depraved after accidentally coming into contact with novels. He ignores his health every day and only thinks about getting the supreme pleasure from them. Isn't this a kind of NTR?

There's a mix of self-reproach and a visceral sense of pleasure... oh, I should say the thrill of reading a novel. It's understandable to have this reaction; Dispel has been corrupted by novels...

Kira was furious at how this guy worked for him just to read novels!

"I never imagined you'd be such a novel addict! How pathetic! Is this what you call Kira?!"

Dispel ignored him.

Kira shook his head helplessly, hoping that his reputation as a 'sage' would have some effect, allowing him to recover from this torment and break free as soon as possible.

After entrusting the shop to Dispel's care, Kira walked along the main street for a few minutes and arrived at the construction site of the new guild, where he began another day of supervision.

"Natsu, move that piece of wood over there..."

"Gray, move this piece of wood over there..."

"Elfman, chop this log..."

Under Kira's orders, this group of guys, whose strength seemed to have nowhere to go, kept fiddling with the wood on the construction site...

"It's so noisy! What's the point of moving things around like this?!"

"Why doesn't Kira have to do any work, yet he can order us around?!"

"Damn it, I wish I could command them like that too!"

Erza, wearing a construction hat and work clothes, walked over with a piece of wood on her shoulder: "There's nothing we can do. He's the one who bought this land. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to build a guild here."

If Kira is the supervisor, then Erza is the foreman. She is always serious about her work, so she does both the work and the supervision.

"Damn it, even the old man was helping, Kira is going too far!"

Erza pointed to the side: "As for the guild master, he just went over there with Kira for tea!"

"Hey, good luck!" Noticing Natsu and the others looking over, Makarov, who was resting at the makeshift tea table under the tree while drinking red tea, waved and greeted them with a smile. "Make sure to build up our guild properly!"

"What?!" ×N

Ignoring the commotion, Maklov and Kira began to talk.

"So, President, do you mean you plan to personally go and bring that Iron Dragon back on track?"

“Yes, according to the new girl, he’s not a bad person by nature and has good talent, but unfortunately he was corrupted by Joseph in Ghost Revenge,” Makarov sighed. “If left unchecked, he might cause something even more serious in the future.”

"You know, it's a veteran's mission to bring misguided young people back to the right path!"

“That’s just like you,” Kira said, taking a sip of his black tea. “Speaking of which, Professor Bellno said something similar when we met at the Council.”

"Really? It seems all old people think the same way. So you agree with my decision?"

Kira nodded and took a sip of his black tea: "Although I often say that I am the guild's chief of staff, that's just for fun. You are the guild leader, so of course you have the final say on this kind of thing!"

"Speaking of which, the new girl you mentioned..." Kira said, but before he could finish, he saw Juvia hiding behind a tree.

"She was originally Juvia, one of the four Phantom Elementals. Because she had nowhere to go, Mira asked me to take her in. She's also..."

This time Kira answered first: "A child who was kind by nature but was corrupted by Joseph?"

"Ahem...that's right."

Kira figured Makarov probably agreed because Jubia was a pretty young lady, but since he was an old man, it wasn't good to expose him directly; it was better to save him some face.

After exchanging a few more casual words, the two quickly ended the conversation and got down to building the new guild.

A few days later, Maklov set off for Vokol to search for Gajeel's whereabouts, and Kira went with him, claiming that he wanted to learn the art of persuasion from him.

Although Kira's statement was somewhat strange, Maklov didn't think it was a bad thing.

Amidst the ruins, Gajeel, dressed in rags, sat alone atop a pile of rubble, devouring his food.

Since the Ghosts disbanded, he has been without a job. Without a job, he has no income, so he can only look for food here. Discarded iron blocks, iron sheets, and iron nails are food that can replenish his physical strength and magic.

Seriously, it eats garbage, specifically metal garbage.

"Wow, is iron really that delicious?"

A somewhat familiar voice came from behind. Gajeel turned around and saw Makolov standing beside the ruins, greeting him, with Kira standing behind him.

Upon seeing the two men, Gajeel trembled slightly. He felt that they had come to settle scores with him, and he knew he was no match for them.
