The Things Girls Talk About~
Fairy Tail...
The year 780 was a lively one, with Fairy Tail gaining many new faces.
Marcus Arozie, a blond mage who uses Sand Magic, is a boy with a bowl haircut. This guy talks a lot, even Eleven can't stand his nagging. It seems that because he didn't have many friends when he was young, he cherishes every opportunity to communicate with others.
Vijeeter Ecor Echo is a strange child who always wears a bodysuit and loves to dance. He originally wanted to study at the dance mecca "Minstrel," but because he didn't have the money, he joined Fairy Tail instead, planning to become a mage to save some money.
Warren Raco, the mole boy who taught Eleven Telepathy Magic, has finally arrived in the big city of his dreams and joined Fairy Tail. However, Eleven, whom he cherishes dearly, has completely forgotten about him, leaving Warren somewhat heartbroken.
Finally, there's Laki Aurietta, a girl who uses Wood Make. "What a strange girl!" That's Eleven's comment. She's clearly a cute girl, but the way she talks is a headache. Eleven still can't understand why she describes eating as "filling her stomach." Every time Laki says that, the bread in her hand immediately loses its appeal!
New recruits are springing up like mushrooms after rain, making Eleven overjoyed. There are even more new recruits to train! Hahaha, I'm getting a little too excited!
The guild hall is now much livelier than before, but amidst this lively atmosphere, there is a slightly gloomy little corner.
"Waaah..." Kinana slumped listlessly on the table, looking unhappy.
"What's wrong? Kinana -chan, what's bothering you? Tell your big sister, hiccup!" Cana, who was holding a bottle of alcohol and was obviously a little drunk, looked at Kinana with a grin and even hiccuped.
Actually, Kinana is a year older than Cana, but because of her baby face and gentle personality, Cana has an advantage over her.
"Um... it's because of that guy Erik," Kinana said, burying her face in the table, sounding a little annoyed.
"Oh? A relationship problem? Tell me, tell me, let me give you some advice!" Upon hearing this, Cana immediately sobered up, her eyes shining as she leaned in. No girl can resist gossip and chat.
Yes, no girls are acceptable!
So, before anyone knew it, Erza and Mira joined in, perking up their ears and looking all ears. Despite their usual fighting and brawling demeanor, these two had actually reached the age where they were interested in topics about romance.
"Hmm, I feel like Erik has been really cold to me lately..." Kinana, who had been slumped over the table, didn't realize that she had suddenly gained an audience and started talking to herself.
"Lately, Erik hasn't been doing missions with me much. And sometimes he even stays out all night and doesn't explain where he went the next day... Ugh, Cana, do you think he might be having an affair?"
"Hehe, I don't think Erik would run off and be a womanizer..." Cana thought of Erik's smug face and felt that apart from Kinana, probably no one else would be interested in Erik.
"However, I think this might just be the legendary burnout period."
Although she didn't think Erik would be a womanizer, Cana still seriously analyzed the situation for Kinana, using some profound terms that she herself didn't understand, acting like a love guru.
"Huh? Really? Sister Cana, then what should I do...? Wait, when did everyone gather here?"
Kinana was startled by Cana's words. The term "burnout period" sounded terrifying. She quickly looked up and asked Cana for help, only to find that she was already surrounded by a group of people.
Not only Mira and Erza were eavesdropping, but even Levy and the newly joined Rachel blushed and came over.
Mira and Erza, who had been eavesdropping there the first, were now completely blushing. Erza was even dazed and stammering.
"Um... Kinana, you just said Erik doesn't come home at night, is it possible that you two are currently together...?"
Erza struggled to say "together" for a long time, but couldn't squeeze out the word "together" no matter what. Her face turned as red as if it were about to bleed. The other girls also blushed after Erza's words and didn't dare to look at Kinana.
"Yes, Erik is living with me now!" Kinana readily admitted it.
None of the girls were astonished by Kinana's words and were completely speechless. The group of newbies looked at Kinana with the same adoration they would show to a great figure.
"Wow, wow, wow... same... same... a real man! Kinana is such a man!!"
A voice that utterly ruined the atmosphere burst in; Elfman had somehow joined the small girls' club.
There was a muscular, light-bodied guy, his face flushed with embarrassment, fidgeting and muttering nonsensical things like "manly" in his head. To be honest, it was a bit disgusting.
Ever since Eleven returned from his Mira -hunting trip a few months ago, Elfman has been acting strangely. The gentle and timid Elfman of the past has completely disappeared, replaced by this muscular, macho man who constantly spouts "manly" phrases, which has left everyone quite unsettled.
However, Mira was quite satisfied with her brother's transformation; she thought it made him very masculine.
At this point, no one cared about Elfman's nonsense anymore; the girls were more concerned about Kinana. As their representative, Erza, the bravest yet shyest of them all, asked another question.
"So... so... how far have you gotten? Have you kissed... kissed yet?!" Erza was so embarrassed she was almost out of breath.
Wow Erza so bold! She actually asked such a shy question!
Looking at the group of shy young girls, Kinana also became a little embarrassed, blushing as she said, "Hehehe, yes... yes, it happened before, but Erik doesn't seem to like it."
It was as if puffs of steam were rising from the girls' heads.
"Wow!! A real man! A real man should chirp... a real man!!"
"Shut up, Elfman! You're so noisy!!"
Several sharp shouts rang out simultaneously, and the burly Elfman, too embarrassed, was sent flying out of the guild.
"Man!!"
