Chapter 10 Lucy, did you fart?
Chapter 10 Lucy, did you fart?
In Chase's house, several people sat around the coffee table.
"I see. Let's leave that brainless idiot Natsu aside for now."
"Lucy, is this your excuse for showing up at someone's house wearing only a bath towel?"
After listening to the whole story, Chess carefully examined Lucy and said seriously, "I didn't expect you to have a strange hobby similar to Gray's. Joining Fairy Tail was definitely the right choice!"
"Love!" Happy raised his hand in agreement.
Love my ass!
Lucy tightened the towel around her neck, her lips twitching wildly.
While Chase is right, to call someone like Gray an exhibitionist—a pervert who asks girls for their measurements upon first meeting them and is now shirtless and alone in a room with an incredibly cute girl—is ridiculous.
It makes me so angry just thinking about it!
Wait, a super cute girl?!
It was only then that Lucy noticed the dark mage girl sitting next to Chase, her eyebrows furrowed, staring intently like a madman, and she seemed strangely familiar.
It is certain that this girl, who is about the same age as him, is definitely not a Fairy Tail mage.
So, where exactly did you see it?
Lucy racked her brains, thinking hard, until she caught a glimpse of the distinctive magic hat worn by the dark mage girl, and her eyes lit up.
"Hey, you wouldn't happen to be the Dark Magician Girl who was super famous in the weekly magic magazine 'Sorcerer', would you?!"
Lucy's memories gradually became clearer.
That was a year ago. Because she was particularly fond of Fairy Tail, she paid special attention to Mirajane, who was very popular in the Magic Weekly.
Over time, I also developed a deep impression of Dark Magician Girl, who was also very popular at the time and had released many photobooks.
I never expected to meet you in such a situation.
Moreover, it seems that Dark Magician Girl and Mr. Chase have a very close relationship!
"A magic weekly, huh? It really brings back some memories."
The Dark Magician Girl chuckled and sighed, then looked at the guild crest on Lucy's hand. "A new face I've never seen before. You must be new to the guild?"
"Hmm! It's nice to meet you. My name is Lucy Heartfilia, and I just joined the guild a couple of days ago!"
Lucy greeted them excitedly.
The dark magician girl smiled and shook hands with Lucy. After introducing herself, she puffed out her cheeks and muttered to herself, "What a cute girl. Master is probably secretly pleased with himself."
"Master, my master?"
Lucy felt like she had heard something incredible, and her eyes kept darting between Chase and the Dark Magician Girl.
Besides her and Natsu, only Mr. Chess was left here.
Then the person being referred to in that resentful voice is naturally obvious.
Mr. Chase is not only a severe case of chuunibyou (middle school syndrome), but also a super pervert in secret?
There's definitely something going on between them!
Thinking of this, Lucy's face turned bright red, and certain inappropriate images flashed through her mind.
"Hey Lucy, wanna do business with me? I can give you a 20% discount~"
Harpy popped out at the last minute, and having tasted the sweetness of success, it wouldn't miss any opportunity to plunder Lucy's wallet.
Lucy's imagination stopped abruptly, and she stared at Happy with a wary expression.
Come again?
You're offering an 80% discount? I'd love to break your bones!
The girl was furious at the thought of the unprofitable business she had made during the day.
"Doing business? What kind of business?" Chase asked curiously.
If I remember correctly, Lucy and Happy didn't have this kind of interaction at this point in the original story, right?
"Oh, this is...
Just as Harpy was about to speak, a snow-white arm suddenly grabbed his neck and locked it tightly.
"No, no, Happy's drunk, yeah, that's right!"
Lucy gave a forced smile, holding Harpy firmly to her chest, not giving him a chance to speak.
If Mr. Chase finds out that I've been secretly inquiring about his "scandals," it will leave a very bad impression!
Can you get drunk from drinking tea?
The dark magician girl glanced at the tea on the coffee table with surprise, then at Happy, who was being squeezed in the deep ditch and gradually deforming, and said seriously, "It's not impossible that it's just a stupid Happy."
Happy: Waaaaah! (I'm innocent! She's slandering me!)
"It doesn't matter what happens! Compared to this..."
Natsu suddenly stood up, flames erupting from his right fist. "Hey! Dark Magician Girl, long time no see! Come fight me!"
"Are you sure, Natsu? I've become stronger along with my master."
Dark Magician Girl, who had long since blended into the Fairy Tail guild's art style, was not intimidated at all. She rubbed her hands together, and her magic wand shone brightly.
then……
dong dong!
The two men, who were about to start a fight, were each hit by a powerful punch from Chase. In an unusually synchronized motion, they clutched their heads, squatted on the ground, and cried out in pain.
"You all better watch yourselves! Look around! This is my house!" Chase scolded sternly.
Lucy, who had just suffered a terrible misfortune, nodded vigorously in response, feeling an urge to give it a thumbs up.
"If you want to fight, go fight at Lucy's house!"
Lucy: ...
Silently withdrawing a big thumbs up.
Under Chess's "tyranny," Natsu and Dark Magician Girl eventually gave up their idea of fighting each other and obediently returned to their seats.
The chaotic scene finally returned to calm.
After a detailed explanation, Lucy learned from Chase that Dark Magician Girl was a card monster who had made a contract with Chase.
The relationship between the two was similar to that between himself and Aquarius, Talos, and the others.
At the same time, she gained a complete understanding of the magic Chase used—Duelist Soul.
"Thank goodness I didn't fall for that damn cat Happy's trick!" Lucy thought to herself with relief.
To be honest, for a fleeting moment just now, she was indeed tempted to spend money to watch the drama unfold.
"Magic I've never heard of before, Mr. Chase's Duelist Soul," Lucy exclaimed, having finished her inner monologue.
"Although there are more trap and spell cards, they are similar to your Celestial Spirit Spells. The card monsters are also partners that I cherish very much," Chase said earnestly.
It is thanks to the unwavering companionship of the card monsters that he has been able to get to where he is today.
Whether on a physical or mental level.
"Yes, that's right!"
Lucy understood perfectly, nodded emphatically, and a bright smile spread across her face.
As soon as she finished speaking, a strange "poof~poof~hmm~" sound suddenly came from behind her.
"Lucy, did you fart?"
Chase wasn't particular about such things and asked the question bluntly in front of Lucy.
No, not at all!
Lucy was completely speechless and retorted in a shrill voice.
She turned around and picked up a cute creature with white fur, a pointed nose, a round head, and a small, trembling body.
"That voice just now came from this child. His name is Pru, the Canis Minor celestial spirit who just signed a contract with me."
Pru raised his right hand shakily: "Pfft~ Pfft~"
Its adorable, goofy expressions and movements instantly drew the Dark Magician Girl's attention: "What a cute little snowman!"
She has absolutely no resistance to cute things.
"...Uh, not a snowman, it's Canis Minor."
As Lucy patiently explained, she carefully handed Pru to the dark magician girl whose eyes were shining.
The dark magician girl took Pru and hugged him, touching and rubbing him.
Pru's face was filled with utter despair.
"Pluyo, I feel like I should be able to get along well with this guy."
Chase nodded thoughtfully, then drew a card from the void with two fingers, summoning the monster inside.
"Kurri Kurri~"
The chestnut ball floated in the air, blinking its adorable big eyes.
