Chapter 182 Departure! Heading to the Forest of Pauldali

The next morning.

Chase arrived at the guild early to share with Mira the ugly photos he had gotten from under the tree the day before.

Looking at the photo of herself as a "little delinquent" and Erza as a child pulling at each other's mouths, resulting in her face being twisted into an ugly pretzel, Mira didn't react much, but smiled and said that she missed the old days.

Then, without making a sound, she put away the unflattering photo and silently replaced the carefully prepared breakfast she had handed to Chase with a stiff French baguette. "Chase, you can have this today!"

"Hey, I specifically brought your embarrassing old photos with me!"

Chase picked up the breadstick that could be used as a weapon, and stared at it for a long time, but still couldn't bring himself to bite into it.

"So this is my thank-you gift," Mira said matter-of-factly.

Looking at my ugly childhood photos and still wanting to eat delicious food? Dream on!

And the president, he actually secretly took such a wicked photo. Today, he must be punished with a cup of extra spicy strong tea!

At that moment, in front of the magazine store where a long queue had formed, a lecherous old man who had gotten up early to buy the latest issue of a beautiful women's photo book suddenly felt a tightness in his anus.

"Strange, why do I have a feeling that something bad is going to happen today?" Makarov frowned in surprise.

However, this strange feeling soon vanished—he bought the photo album he had been longing for.

In the guild.

"Sigh, I should have known better than to bring these photos," Chase said with some regret, munching on a breadstick.

Having gotten used to all sorts of warm and delicious breakfasts, this tasteless, chewy texture is really unpleasant.

"In that case, this will be the standard from now on!" Mira said seriously, hands on her hips. But in the end, she softened and took the dry bread from Chase's hand, bringing out the original breakfast again.

Based on the principle of not wasting food, she decided to leave the breadsticks for Elfman, who hadn't arrived yet.

Chess was deeply moved and didn't hold back in showing off.

Mira rested her chin on her hands on the bar counter, her beautiful eyes narrowed as she stared straight at him, and said with a smile, "No need to eat so fast, I won't change my mind."

After breakfast, seeing that no one else had arrived yet, Chase started chatting with Mira, mainly about the SS-level commission they had taken on.

Half an hour later, Lucy, dressed in blue and white outdoor gear, rushed in.

"Sorry, sorry, Chess, I overslept." Lucy bowed apologetically with a face full of remorse.

After Natsu's antics, she lay down last night with her mind filled with all sorts of wild thoughts, making it impossible for her to fall asleep.

Finally, with the help of Lyra's singing, I managed to drift off to sleep.

"It's okay, whether it's sooner or later won't make a big difference. Compared to this—"

Chess looked up at Lucy and asked meaningfully, "How did your date with Natsu go last night? It must have been enjoyable, right?"

"Happy my foot!"

Mentioning this made Lucy furious, and she complained indignantly, "Seriously, who invites a girl to dig in the dirt in the middle of the night!"

After venting her frustrations, she suddenly realized an important point and firmly retorted, "No, we weren't even going on a date!"

"Really? Everyone in the guild thinks so, are you just too slow to catch on?" Chase said with a smile.

"This is a huge misunderstanding!" Lucy's lips twitched.

"Lucy hasn't had breakfast yet, has she? Have something to drink first." Mira thoughtfully brought over a glass of hot milk.

"Thank you, Sister Mira."

"Speaking of Lucy, how many children are you planning to have with Natsu? I heard from Juvia that she wants to have thirty with Gray."

"Pfft!!!" Lucy spat out all the milk she hadn't swallowed yet. The zero-frame start was something she couldn't guard against at all.

"I don't think that way at all now! And why compare myself to Juvia?!"

"Because Natsu and Gray are always competing with each other in various areas."

"So what does this have to do with me—"

Lucy sighed heavily, feeling utterly exhausted.

Meanwhile, Chess, standing next to him, was wiping the milk off his face with tired hands.

Lucy spent her breakfast time explaining things to Mira—though in the end, even she wasn't sure if she liked Natsu or not.

"If you're ready, let's go."

Chess stood up and took the lead towards the guild staircase.

"Huh? Why don't we go out through the main door?" Lucy blinked, looking puzzled.

"Normal travel is too slow. We can save a lot of time by flying directly there on the city's protective pterosaurs," Chase said, turning around.

This unconventional yet highly efficient method shattered Lucy's conventional understanding: "You can do that too!"

So what about her meticulously researching the exact location of the commissioned destination, "Baondari Forest," planning the optimal route, and mentally preparing to pay all the travel expenses yesterday?

Does that mean she's diligent and conscientious?!

In contrast, Mira was already used to this, and waved with a smile at the departing siblings, saying, "Have a safe trip!"

And so, Chess and Lucy arrived one after the other on the wide rooftop terrace of the guild.

Chase raised his arm, the cards at his fingertips shimmering with light.

Blue wings flapped, creating gusts of wind, and the city-guarding pterosaur emerged from the lit magic circle, its ferocious, jagged appearance startling Lucy.

Although I knew of the existence of the city-guarding pterosaur, this was the first time I had come into such close contact with it.

No matter what, it was still a legendary "dragon," and that innate racial oppression made her feel a sense of fear.

The city-guarding pterosaur noticed her condition, let out a low cry, then folded its wings and lowered its body slightly.

Beneath his fierce exterior lies a surprisingly warm-hearted man. Seeing this, Lucy no longer hesitated and stepped forward to greet him: "Nice to meet you, City Guardian Wyvern, I'm Lucy."

The guardian pterosaur winked in a friendly gesture, and the human and the pterosaur became acquainted.

As Chase and Lucy sat on its back, the powerful dragon wings stirred up a gale.

The city-guarding pterosaur immediately transformed into a streak of blue light and soared into the sky, flying out of Magnolia's town area in the blink of an eye!

Unlike the last time when it took Mira to the Tower of Paradise, this time it didn't cunningly shake its body to force Lucy to hug Chase tightly. Instead, it opened a magical barrier to block the strong wind coming from the front.

The advantage of this method is that it is extremely stable, but the disadvantage is that it requires more magic power.

"Wow, that's amazing!"

Sitting in the back, Lucy stared wide-eyed at the rapidly receding earth below and couldn't help but gasp in amazement.

This unimaginable visual feast was something she could never have imagined before!

"Flight magic is quite practical. If you're interested, you can learn it from the Dark Magician Girl," Chess suggested.

"Really?!"

Lucy looked delighted, but quickly sighed deeply, "It seems too difficult, let's just give up."

She can't even fully master the Celestial Robe right now, and flying magic is completely out of reach.

"Indeed." Chase nodded affirmatively.

"Chesco is so mean! Couldn't you have been a little more tactful?" Lucy pouted in dissatisfaction.

"Actually, it doesn't necessarily have to be flight magic. Just like Natsu, he can fly by using flames as a propulsion system," Chess said in turn.

Natsu's feat is somewhat understandable, but Gajeel, the Iron Dragon Slayer, has also demonstrated flying, which makes him a little puzzled.

How can we generate thrust by continuously outputting iron filings?

It can only be said that the world of magic is truly full of infinite possibilities—

"Do I look like someone who could do something like that?" Lucy pointed to herself, lacking confidence.

"Lucy, you are our guild's only Celestial Spirit Mage, and you will be the strongest Celestial Spirit Mage in the future."

After a brief pause, Chase said seriously, "Regardless of what others think, this is always how I feel."

"Distance... the strongest distance... I'm still far from that level."

Overwhelmed by the praise from Chesgo, who was as strong as a monster, Lucy became somewhat smug and continued her daydream about becoming an S-class mage and reprimanding Natsume.

"It's not far off. There's an opportunity right in front of us. Let's see how far we can go in this SS commission."

"Hmm! It's entrusted to me, the strongest Celestial Spirit Mage? Chess, you mean, 'That's right, I won't interfere with this commission until you fail.'"

"error?!!!"
