Chapter 279 The Heart of the Devil, News from Ultear

"Excuse me, Chesgo."

No sooner had Lucy left than Lisanna showed up at the door, again claiming that her foot had just happened to be passing by.

After finishing her light tea and remarking on how beautiful the Chase family home was, Lisana casually brought up the battle she had fought on the Necro Duel Platform that day, steer the conversation toward Mira and Erza.

With Lucy's question already in mind, Chase instantly understood the girl's thoughts and gave the same answer without hesitation.

Unsurprisingly, Lisana also blushed and quickly fled the scene.

"Honestly, these two are even more nervous and curious than the people involved—" Chase took a sip of tea, shook his head and sighed helplessly.

Although his current guild life seemed peaceful and perfect for dating, he was well aware of the undercurrents lurking beneath the surface.

The Devil's Heart, the Gates of Tartaros, Acnologia the Black Dragon, Zeref, and even the Five Divine Dragons hiding in the North Continent—almost all these potential dangers are connected to Fairy Tail.

In addition, there are divine mages and gods from the divine realm with extremely limited intelligence!

Given the tight timeframe and the looming crisis, although he was somewhat tempted, Chase felt that becoming stronger was a higher priority, so he had no intention of dating at the moment.

This might sound a bit like a "warrior mentality," but someone who can't even protect the ones they love has no right to talk about love!

Rather than desperately waiting for death in the ruins with his girlfriend in his arms, Chase would rather trample all those Black Dragons and Five Divine Dragons under his feet, then stand with Mira on his left and Erza on his right and declare domineeringly: See this? This is the man you all like!

Even setting aside his own personality, Chase's decision actually protects Mira and Erza to the greatest extent possible.

After all, the enemies he would face in the future were not benevolent, and the identity of "girlfriend" was obviously more eye-catching than "guild partner"—even if he was willing to stay on the continent of Ishgar for the rest of his life, danger would still creep up on him.

Gods exist in the world of Fairy Tail!

Thinking of this, Chess slowly put down his teacup, staring blankly at the remaining tea, a look of regret on his face.

If we didn't know about worldviews, we could probably live our daily lives filled with the saccharine and cheesy smell of romance without any worries, right?

How awful! How absolutely awful!

The next day.

When Chase, having composed himself, headed to the guild as usual, perhaps because he stepped through the door with his left foot, he immediately attracted disdainful and contemptuous looks from Lucy and Lisanna.

The two women, who had been secretly competing with each other yesterday, were now sitting together whispering like very close best friends.

The content is roughly something like "This is terrible," "A lecherous gambler," "A shameless greedy devil," and "Little Loki."

After escaping from Chase's house last night, Lucy and Lisanna, who were acting as wingmen, struggled all night. In the end, they decided to tell Mira and Erza the information they had gathered and expose the lecherous face of Deadcard.

"Yo, good morning!"

Chase greeted them with a smile, only to be met with the unspoken understanding between the two men who turned away and ignored him.

Erza, who was sitting next to me eating strawberry cake, suddenly sat up straight and exclaimed, "Good morning!"

"Cut cut cut cut cut cut"

After learning Chase's true feelings from Lucy, she was in a state of extreme panic. She was happy that Chase had not explicitly rejected her, but she was also shocked by his domineering answer of "I want both of them." Her mind was filled with shy images that she had never experienced before.

It was alright when Chase wasn't around; this tangled mess of emotions could be distracted by eating cake. But when Chase appeared, even his speech became somewhat incoherent.

The serious and earnest fairy queen image is completely gone, giving off a strong sense of déjà vu when she meets Jellal from the original work.

Chase actually wanted to ask her why she ate cake so early in the morning, but given her current state, he figured he wouldn't get a clear answer. He'd better let her calm down on her own.

Good morning, Chess.

Compared to Erza's bewilderment, Mira at the bar was no different from usual, her pretty face still adorned with a sweet and charming smile. "Come and have breakfast first."

Didn't Lisana tell her about what happened last night?

With a hint of suspicion, Chase slowly walked over, and then saw Mira smilingly bring out two dark, grimy...

The fried egg still had some traces of firelight on its surface.

The strong smell of burning food immediately filled my nostrils.

"Um, this breakfast is probably for Natsu, right?" Chess asked tentatively.

"No, Lisana said you seem to have a good appetite."

Mira placed the plate in front of Chase, who had just sat down, and smiled darkly, implying, "So this was specially reserved for you."

"By the way, even Natsu wouldn't eat a burnt fried egg."

So you do know it's burnt!

Chess's lips twitched twice, finally experiencing firsthand the cunning of Fairy Tail's mascot, and realizing that she indeed knew everything.

However, since he dared to say that to Lucy Lisanna, he certainly wouldn't back down in this situation!

"Haha, two is just right, then I'll start eating!"

Without any hesitation, Chase stacked the two black truffle omelets together, grabbed them, and was about to put them in his mouth.

"Forget it, let's just forget about it."

Mira instinctively reached out, but quickly stopped him, taking out a normal-looking milk bread from behind the bar.

She just wanted to tease and get revenge on Chess, but she didn't expect him to be so wild, even daring to eat a burnt fried egg.

What should I do if I get an upset stomach?

"Mira, we can't be soft on this greedy man!" Lisana came to Mira's side, her eyes fixed on Chess with a fierce, wolfish gaze.

Over there, Lucy was even more furious when she saw Erza's heart suddenly racing: Why are you blushing like a teapot?!

"That's strange. I just went out to pick up a client, and suddenly their relationship seems a bit confusing."

In a corner not far away, Fried scratched his newly grown hair (he'd shaved his head during the Civil War), his eyes filled with surprise.

"If I'm not mistaken, it seems our guild's two strongest female mages have both fallen for her. That bastard Chess!"

Biglos's eyes, hidden beneath his mask, were filled with envy.

The five puppets floating behind them repeated, "That bastard! That bastard!" x5

"In a way, he's quite pitiful too," Abba Green said thoughtfully.

Meanwhile, Macao and Wakaba, the two old buddies, were drinking alone, constantly lamenting, "It's so good to be young."

Compared to these seasoned veterans, Wendy was much slower to notice and didn't realize anything was wrong. She asked Happy with concern, "Happy, where's Natsume?"

"Ai~ That idiot forced the use of the Destruction Dragon's power yesterday and suffered a backlash. He's still lying in Lucy's bed right now."

Harpy briefly explained the situation, then took out a fish from the bag behind him. "Charlu, do you want to eat fish?"

"I grabbed this from Lucy's fridge, it's super fresh!"

"Who eats this stuff so early in the morning?!" Xia Lulu scolded angrily, hands on her hips.

Wendy silently thought to herself: Poor Lucy.

"Oh, Mengmeng, would you like some?" Harpy, having been rejected, turned to Mengmeng.

And unsurprisingly, I received a huge eye roll in return.

The cat is definitely a scumbag.

Beside Meng, Eclair ignored the noise around her and was flipping through the magic book in her hands, trying to digest the knowledge inside.

That was a gift from the Silent Magician to her: "An Introduction to the Basic Theoretical System of Silent Magic (Customized Edition)"

At the same time, Juvia was twisting her large indigo needle and constantly nudging Gray, Gajeel was squatting in a dark corner silently gnawing on iron, Nob, who had returned from completing his commission, was still standing in front of the commission board, agonizing over his task, while the idle waitresses chattered amongst themselves about gossip—

The guild atmosphere remained as lively as ever, and was not greatly affected by the changes in Mira and Erza.

"By the way, Chase, there's a commission that would be perfect for you. Would you like to give it a try?"

At the bar, after Chase finished his breakfast, Mira mysteriously held up one finger.

"Let's not do it for now, lest we miss out on that person again." Chess wiped his mouth.

With his current combat strength, he's unlikely to encounter any targets that will yield high-value cards in the Fiore Kingdom's quests. Rather than making a wasted trip, he'd rather stay at the guild and wait for Gildarts, who went out with Cana, to return.

If you're lucky, you might be able to get the Exodia five-piece set!

Mira knew perfectly well that the person she was waiting for was Gildarts, but Lucy and Lisanna, who were kept in the dark, knew nothing about it.

Sensitive to the elements, they assumed that Chase's "missed opportunity" referred to either Mira or Erza, so they immediately came over.

"Brother Chess, the person you're talking about, it wouldn't happen to be Sister Mira, would it?"

"How could that be? I'm sure it's Erza!"

The two who had just been on the same side were now arguing again, their foreheads touching.

"Of course it's Gildarts! I'm really looking forward to fighting that guy!" Chase clenched his fist excitedly. Lucy: ".—."

Lisana:

"...

?

Die, you battle maniac!!

Two days passed quietly amidst the noisy and lively guild activities.

To Chase's surprise, before Gildarts even arrived, a somewhat unexpected situation arose first:

The cards I gave to Ultear earlier are responding!
