Natsu roared, fists colliding, and flames instantly enveloped his whole body.
"I want to have a big fight too! Fire Dragon's-Iron Fist!"
Natsu was like a humanoid cannonball, rushing into those Bora men who were trying to escape.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Each punch was accompanied by a scream and a figure flying into the sky.
"Fire Dragon's--the Roar!"
Natsu took a deep breath, and a huge pillar of fire spurted out from his mouth, roasting all the remaining defeated soldiers into charcoal. By the way, it also set fire to the few remaining intact buildings in the port.
"Wow! So awesome!" Happy was flying in the air, waving its little paws to cheer.
Lucy looked at the scene in front of him, and the corners of his mouth twitched crazily.
"This... this is Fairy Tail?"
Where is the Mage Guild? This is simply a demolition brigade!
At this moment, the sound of neat footsteps and the sound of armor clashing came from the distance.
"The army is coming! Surround them quickly!"
"Catch those thugs who destroyed the port!"
Lu Chongwei's eyes darkened, he jumped down from the container, and grabbed the wrist of Lucy, who was still in a daze.
"Let's go!"
"Eh? Where are you going?" Lucy hasn't reacted yet.
"Of course I'm running away! Do you want to stay and pay for it?"
Lu Chongwei picked up Natsu's back collar with his other hand and lifted him up like a chicken.
"Happy! Keep up!"
"As you command!"
The four people rushed out from the gap in the guard's encirclement and ran wildly on the streets of Hargeon.
The wind whistled in my ears.
Lucy was pulled by Lu Chongwei, staggering in her steps, but her eyes were fixed on the tall figure in front of her.
"That..."
Lucy panted and shouted loudly:
"Why take me with you?"
Lu Chongwei did not look back, but the voice came clearly:
"Don't you want to join Fairy Tail?"
Lucy was stunned.
Lu Chongwei turned his head and showed a bright smile to her.
"Then come with us! Although our guild is a bit noisy, a bit chaotic, and often gets into trouble..."
"But, it's fun there."
Lucy Looking at that smile, the fear and anxiety in my heart disappeared at this moment.
Her face brightened and she nodded vigorously.
"Yeah!"
Two days later, Magnolia.
Lucy stood in front of the huge wooden door, his heart pounding.
This is the legendary Fairy Tail.
"Don't be nervous, just go in."
Lu Chongwei patted her shoulder, and then winked at Natsu.
Natsu grinned and raised his feet.
Bang!
The door was kicked open.
"We are back!!!"
Natsu's loud voice instantly echoed throughout the hall.
However, what greeted them was not applause and flowers, but a flying wine bottle.
Snap!
Natsu skillfully turned his head to avoid it, and the wine bottle hit the door frame, causing pieces to fly everywhere.
"Natsu! You bastard! When will you pay back the money you owed me last time!"
"Gray! Put your clothes on before you talk! Pervert!"
"Who do you think is a pervert? Do you want to fight? Hang your eyes!"
"Come on! Droopy eyes!"
In just a moment, the hall turned into a mess.
The table was flying in the sky, and the chairs were rolling on the ground. The light of magic was flying everywhere, and flames, ice cubes, and cards were intertwined.
Some people were drinking, some were wrestling, and some were standing on the table and doing a striptease.
Lucy stood at the door, dumbfounded.
"What... what is going on?"
The elite guild in her imagination should be a group of wise men wearing robes, holding staffs, and elegantly discussing the mysteries of magic.
And the group of people in front of me... are simply a bunch of hooligans!
"Just get used to it."
Lu Chongwei walked into the battlefield calmly, caught a flying chair and sat down.
"This is our daily life."
At this moment, a huge black shadow suddenly enveloped the entire hall.
Boom!
A huge foot stepped down from the second floor, crushing Natsu and Gray who were fighting.
"Quiet everyone!!!"
A roar made the glass tremble.
Lucy looked up in horror and saw a giant-like figure standing on the second floor, looking down at everyone.
"Giant... giant?!" Lucy was so frightened that his legs were weak.
However, the next second, the huge figure suddenly shrank and turned into a little old man wearing a clown suit and a mustache.
Makarov jumped down from the second floor and landed on the bar.
"Welcome back, idiots."
Makarov glanced around the crowd, and finally his eyes fell on Lucy, who was standing at the door with a look of astonishment on his face.
"Oh? Is this the new guy?"
Lu Chongwei walked over and pulled Lucy in.
"She is Lucy and wants to join us."
Makarov looked at Lucy with a kind smile on his face.
"Welcome to Fairy Tail."
The old president raised the wine glass in his hand and shouted:
"No matter what happened in the past, no matter what happens in the future!"
"As soon as you enter this door, everyone becomes family!"
"To the new family! Cheers!"
"Cheers!!!"
A deafening cheer erupted in the hall.
Lucy looked at the sincere smiling faces around him, feeling the enthusiasm rushing towards his face, and his eyes were slightly moist.
She raised her right hand and cheered along with everyone.
"Cheers!"
At this moment, she knew.
She finally found her own place.
The carnival lasted the whole afternoon.
It wasn't until the sun set that the noise in the guild subsided a little.
Makarov was sitting on the bar, holding a glass of beer in his hand, his face slightly red. He looked at Lu Chongwei sitting opposite, with a hint of inquiry in his eyes.
"Lu Chongwei, that Decade Quest... how is it?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone around who was still chatting instantly fell silent.
Decade Quest.
That was an existence that even S-Class Mage regarded as a forbidden area. It had been two years since Lu Chongwei left, and everyone was curious about what he had gone through.
Lu Chongwei leaned on the back of the chair, looking lazy.
"It's okay, just a bit cold."
He said it in an understatement, as if he just went to the next town to buy groceries.
"That so-called Eternal Flame does have some skills. Those Frost Giant are also quite resistant to beatings."
Lu Chongwei pointed at Ryujin Jakka at the waist.
"However, I burned them all."
"Hiss--"
There was a gasp of air all around.
Wakaba almost dropped the pipe in his mouth.
"Burn all Frost Giant...?"
"That's a monster with ancient bloodline! I heard that its skin is harder than steel!"
"As expected of Lu Chongwei... I'm afraid this strength has surpassed the ordinary Ten Wizard Saints, right?"
Everyone whispered and looked at Lu Chongwei with awe in their eyes.
Makarov nodded happily.
"I hope you come back safely. The reward for this mission, Magic Council, has been sent over. Please check it yourself."
"Got it."
Lu Chongwei waved his hand and turned to look at Mirajane who was busy at the bar.
"Mira, milk refill."
Mirajane was wearing the familiar burgundy dress today, with her long silver hair draped smoothly over her shoulders. Upon hearing Lu Chongwei's voice, she immediately put down the rag in her hand, turned around, poured a glass of hot milk and handed it over.
"Here, be careful because it's hot."
Mirajane had a gentle smile on his face, and his eyes were full of doting.
