Chaotic Town

Yun Feiyang studied the map, looking rather troubled.

"Are you sure you didn't get the direction wrong? Don't tell me you're lost?"

"Lost? Impossible! I could never get lost in my life! Absolutely impossible!"

Mira jumped in fright. "I was just asking casually. Why are you reacting so strongly?"

"Was I? This is a normal reaction!"

Lisanna suddenly cried out, "Look! There are buildings ahead!"

The group looked up, and sure enough, there were!

"Come on, let's go take a look!"

As they drew closer, they discovered it was a small town.

"Toma Town!"

"There's actually a place like this in the forest!"

"It seems pretty lively. Let's go in and have a look!"

It was indeed lively—far too lively!

People could be seen arguing and brawling everywhere. There were even bodies lying in the depths of the alleys. In short, the place was a complete mess.

Yet none of this affected the vendors' cries. They turned a blind eye to the chaos before them, as though they had long since gotten used to it.

Moreover, Yun Feiyang could sense many ill-intentioned gazes frequently falling on them from the shadows the moment the four of them entered the town.

"Looks like this isn't a good place."

"Yeah. I suddenly have the urge to destroy this place."

"Brother-in-law, Mira, why don't we leave?"

Lisanna was a little scared.

"It's fine. I'm here."

Mages—Yun Feiyang could sense many Mages here, though they were all quite weak!

"You think you can leave after stealing something?"

"No, I didn't!"

That was Elfman's voice!

The three hurriedly turned around and saw a vendor grabbing Elfman. The two were in the middle of an argument.

"What happened?"

"Let go of Elfman!"

The vendor looked the group up and down before chuckling. "You're together, right? Your partner stole something from me. What do you think should be done about that?"

"Bullshit! My brother would never steal!"

"Exactly! You don't look like a good person at all!"

The vendor snarled, "Trying to deny it? You're in this together! Causing trouble here? Believe it or not, I can make sure none of you leave this town alive!"

"Are you trying to kill us? How scary."

Yun Feiyang asked Elfman, "What happened?"

"He framed me!"

Elfman pointed at a stuffed doll. "He wanted one hundred thousand J for it. I didn't want to buy it, so he said I stole it!"

"I had another identical one, and it disappeared. You must have stolen it!"

"I didn't!"

Well, the matter was clear now. The vendor saw that Elfman was honest and was trying to extort him.

"Your word doesn't count. You have to be searched, and since you're together, none of you are getting away!"

The vendor leered as he walked toward Lisanna. "Little cutie, we'll start with you!"

"Go die!"

Mira kicked him to the ground and kept stomping on him. "Search you, search you! I'll let you search!"

"Haha... Lal, looks like you ran into someone tough this time!"

"So even a pervert like you has a day like this!"

"You deserved it!"

The people around them were unfazed, watching the show with amused expressions.

"Stop! How dare you hit me? Do you know who I am?"

"I don't care who you are! You bullied my brother and now you want to bully my sister? I'll kill you!"

Still not satisfied after beating the vendor half to death, Mira began smashing his stall.

"Woof woof woof~~~"

Little White's urgent barking caught Yun Feiyang's attention. When he turned around, he saw—

Good grief, Lisanna had already been forcibly carried away, her mouth tightly covered!

"Courting death!"

Yun Feiyang flashed after them and rescued Lisanna from the trafficker's hands.

"Brother-in-law! Sob sob~~~"

"It's all right now, it's all right!"

Yun Feiyang comforted Lisanna as he walked back.

"This damned place really doesn't allow even the slightest carelessness!"

As the two walked away, the trafficker, who had been standing there blankly, suddenly had a wound split open across his neck. Blood gushed out as he toppled over!

The nearby people's hearts skipped a beat!

"That's an expert!"

"We didn't even see how he made his move!"

"Scatter, scatter! He's not someone we can afford to provoke!"

That small display was enough to intimidate everyone, and the ill-intentioned gazes finally disappeared.

"Are you okay, Lisanna?"

"I'm fine. Luckily, brother-in-law saved me in time!"

"What kind of awful place is this? Why is it so chaotic?"

"Forget it. Let's find somewhere to rest, then leave!"

The four found a fairly decent tavern and walked inside.

The moment they entered, everyone turned to look at them.

Seeing that they were only a few children, the people present either looked at them mockingly or with ill intent!

"What are you looking at? Want me to beat you up?"

Mira even revealed her Demon arm.

Unexpectedly, not only were those people unafraid, they burst into laughter!

"Little girl, fierceness isn't something you can fake!"

"That thing of yours can't scare us!"

Still, they withdrew their unrestrained stares, which counted as acknowledging the four of them.

The four casually found a table and sat down.

"Boss, bring us anything edible!"

"Please wait a moment!"

Mira was both frustrated and confused. "Why weren't they afraid of me?"

"Because they're all Mages!"

"Mages aren't afraid of Demons?"

"That's not quite it. I told you before that there are countless strange kinds of Magic. They're just used to it."

"So that's how it is!"

"Mages only pursue power. Nothing else matters. Only a country bumpkin like you would care whether someone is a Demon or not."

"Bastard, would you die if you went a day without bullying me?"

Yun Feiyang shrugged, picked up the food that had been brought over, and began eating. He also downed a large cup of alcohol in one gulp.

"Refreshing!"

"Hey—you're underage. You can't drink alcohol!"

"None of your business!"

What a joke. Having lived two lives, his combined age was old enough to be her ancestor. How could he not drink?

"By the way, you asked us to join the Guild, but you still haven't told us the Guild's name."

"Huh? Didn't I?"

Mira roared, "No!"

Lisanna and Elfman shook their heads as well.

"Then that was truly rude of me! Our Guild is called Fairy Tail!"

"Fairy Tail?"

A man at the next table frowned. "I remember that being a legitimate Guild, isn't it?"

"That's right. I know that Guild. Their Guild Master is one of the Ten Great, a powerful mage. But as for the other members, their strength is rather ordinary!"

"If it's a legitimate Guild..."

All three people at that table stood up and shouted, "Everyone, flies from a legitimate Guild have slipped in! They're from Fairy Tail!"

Those words caused a huge reaction. The people in the tavern rose one after another and surrounded them!

"What's going on? What happened?"

Mira and the others looked completely confused!

"Hey, what exactly did your Guild do? Why are they reacting like this?"

Yun Feiyang shrugged. "Looks like we've stumbled into a den of thieves!"

On the second floor, a blond-haired boy had been watching the situation downstairs ever since he heard the name Fairy Tail.

"Newcomers? What idiots!"

"It's because they take in too many Idiots like this that the Guild gets looked down on!"
