Fairy Tail: I'm Not the Most Terrifying Mage

Yefrit said, "If we had brought it out sooner, there would have been no reason to fight. It would have been better to eliminate a dark guild like Iron Forest."

If Jefried had handed it over when he received the flute.

Therefore, Fairy Tail lost its legitimate reason for fighting Iron Forest, so at most it could be described as "crushing the evil guild's conspiracy" rather than "annihilating the dark guild that was carrying out an evil plan".

"Moreover, the opportunity that everyone has finally had—the chance to fight against the entire Dark Guild—is very rare, and this combat experience is invaluable," Yefrit added.

Erza stopped pursuing the matter, clearly agreeing with Yefrit's words.

"Wait, you bastard, when did you switch them out?!" Gray yelled.

“In the very beginning,” Yefrit said.

"The earliest." Gray paused, remembering that the earliest was...

On the departing train!

Natsu was abandoned by them at the time, and later they learned that he had fought with Kageyama, and Yefrit was in the car at the time!

It turns out that Lala Bai was switched at the very beginning!

and so!

There was actually no threat at all!

No wonder this guy has been so calm all day!

"You bastard!" Gray wanted to get angry but had no reason to, because what Yefrit had just said made a lot of sense. He said helplessly, "Although this matter was handled very well, it makes me want to beat you up!"

"Please don't! You were using magic haphazardly in the underground passage, and you almost gave me a cold."

"You still dare to say that!" Gray couldn't stand it anymore. "Isn't it all your fault?!"

"I'm so sorry, this is my apology." Yefrit took out a card, flicked her finger, and it turned into two tickets.

"What is this?" Gray asked, taking the card with great curiosity.

"Natsu." Yefrit handed it to Natsu as well.

"Alex's Machine Show!!!" the two shouted at the same time.

They made the same gesture—holding the ticket in their right hand, placing both hands on their chest, leaning forward, their eyes wide open and radiating a laser-like light, their buttocks swaying back and forth like a puppy's tail.

"What is that?" Lucy asked, puzzled. How could there be something that Natsu liked to such an extent?

“It’s an exhibition of some interesting machines,” Yefrit explained with a smile, then looked at Natsu and Gray, “Let’s go see them together.”

"Yefrit, you're amazing! You even managed to buy tickets like this! I used to only see them in magazines!" Natsu gave a thumbs up.

Yefried smiled slightly.

Buying these three tickets was his limit; he used some connections with nobles and spent a lot of money.

But it's all worth it to experience an interesting machine exhibition!

"Hmph, I forgive you," Gray said smugly.

Yefrit looked at Lucy and apologized sincerely, "I'm sorry, Lucy, this ticket was bought before you joined the guild."

"It's okay, I'm not really interested in machines or anything like that," Lucy waved her hand.

“What about me? I want to go too!” Happy asked eagerly.

“You’re a cat, so you shouldn’t need a ticket,” Yefrit replied.

"Great!" Happy exclaimed excitedly, repeatedly chanting, "Machine exhibition! Machine exhibition!"

“Happy!” Natsu shouted.

“Love!” Harpy responded.

The human and the cat worked in perfect unison, mimicking robot expressions, moving stiffly with their limbs, and imitating robot voices: "robot—I am a robot—"

"Hahaha." Everyone burst out laughing at the antics of the person and the cat.

"Alright," Makarov said. "Children, you must be tired after fighting all day. Go to the inn and rest."

"Yes, Master." Erza looked exhausted. She had already used up a lot of her magic power just from traveling today—running through several cities in her magic four-wheeled vehicle.

Lucy swayed slightly. Her magic was already depleted, and now that she was completely relaxed, all her fatigue burst forth!

"Lucy, are you alright!" Natsu, dressed as a robot, happened to walk up to Lucy. Seeing Lucy swaying, he quickly grabbed her arm and steadied her.

“Lucy has used up a lot of magic power. Natsu, if you still have the strength, carry her down the mountain,” Yefrit said with a smile.

"Oh, oh, oh? No, no need," Lucy quickly said, blushing.

“Natsu, you don’t even have the strength to walk anymore?” Yefrit provoked.

"How is that possible!" Natsu fell for it on the spot, immediately throwing Lucy onto his back and locking her elastic legs with his arms like pincers.

"Ugh!" Lucy's blush had barely faded before it returned. Feeling the teasing gazes of the guild leaders, she was utterly mortified. But she was too weak to resist Natsu, so she could only bury her head in Natsu's scarf and whisper, "Baka!"

"Youth is truly wonderful." Yeffert pulled out her camera and snapped a picture.

“You’re only a year older than Natsu, right?” Gray glanced at him sideways.

'Swish, swish, swish'

The bald, chubby transvestite with angel wings, legs tucked together, took strange little steps, and arrived in front of Yefrit almost instantly, saying in an cloyingly sweet voice, "Little Yefrit, do you want a girl too? Our guild has plenty!"

Chapter 9, Clumsy Natsu

"No need!" Yefrit quickly stepped back as the pungent perfume filled her nostrils.

"So fast!" Lucy was shocked by the other person's speed.

“That’s Bob, the guild master of Blue Pegasus,” Erza explained. “He’s the type that Yefrit isn’t good at dealing with.”

"Really not? Little Yefrit is very popular in our guild. If needed, many girls would be willing to be your girlfriend." Bob continued to move closer.

"Really, no need! Ah—I'm tired after fighting all day. I'm going to rest. Goodbye, Mr. Bob." Yefrit quickly cast a spell, and her figure disappeared.

Bob crossed his legs, struck an eye-catching pose, and said with a smile, "Well, what a shy child."

"Hiss—" Lucy shivered.

"Lucy, are you cold?" Natsu asked, carrying Lucy on his back.

"No, not at all." Lucy buried her face in Natsu's scarf again.

“Let’s go, Natsu,” Gray said.

"Oh."

Take a few steps.

Natsu said, "Lucy, you're so heavy."

"No way! What are you talking about?!" Lucy blushed instantly and punched Natsu hard on the head.

"It's true, he's much heavier than Lisanna."

Natsu's voice was innocent, but Lucy froze upon hearing it.

"Don't let me down, you bastard!" Yefrit suddenly appeared, holding a camera in his left hand and punching Natsu in the face with his right.

"You bastard, what are you doing all of a sudden?!" Natsu said angrily.

“Natsu, serves you right!” Gray said.

“Indeed.” Erza nodded.

"Well, that's just how our Natsu is," Happy said, sounding like a mother hen, her tone full of helplessness.

"This is ridiculous!" Natsu remembered that he was carrying Lucy on his back and couldn't hit her, so he could only puff out his cheeks angrily and turn his head away.

"."

after awhile.

Lucy's voice came from inside Natsu's scarf.

Who is Lisanna?

Everyone fell silent.

Yefrit said, "Grey's childhood sweetheart."

"Why did Natsu carry Gray's childhood friend on his back?" Lucy asked.

"..." Gray looked at Yefrit with amusement, wanting to see how he would talk nonsense.

“Because we’re companions, it’s normal for companions to carry each other, like this,” Yefrit said, climbing onto Erza.

Erza, left with no other choice, turned her back to Yefrit.

This thing is quite heavy.

Erza hasn't carried anyone on her back for several years; the person she carried most often before was Natsu.

Carrying Natsu was much easier than carrying Yefrit, because usually when he carried Natsu, he was too tired to move and fell asleep. But at this moment, Yefrit kept adjusting her position on her back.

Of course, Yefrit was in a lot of pain from Erza's armor digging into his abdomen and thighs. Erza was very strong, and he wasn't as thick-skinned as Natsu.

"."

Seeing Yefrit squirming on Erza's back, Erza wasn't angry. Lucy knew that Erza treated Yefrit, Natsu, Gray, and the others like her younger brothers.

Lucy keenly sensed that Lisanna might be more than just a character to Natsu.

However, Lucy stopped asking. Although she had a feeling that this matter was not simple, she felt that she would not be able to get any information from her at this time, and it seemed that it had nothing to do with her. She had no right to pry into Natsu's past.

"I'm leaving first."

Erza took a few steps, and Yefrit on her back disappeared.

Yefrit couldn't take it anymore. He wasn't Natsu, the kind of person who could bang his head against Erza's chest armor without getting hurt.

After walking a few more steps, Lucy was still somewhat unwilling to give up and wanted to speak, "Something's definitely not right, Natsu..."

Erza and Gray quickly lowered their heads.

Suddenly, Natsu felt his ankle kick something, and he fell flat on his face. His hand involuntarily rose up and pressed against a softer part of his body than his thigh.

The unexpected incident interrupted Lucy's words, and Erza and Gray both breathed a sigh of relief.
