The Magic Merchant in Fairy Tail

　On the flying carpet, the happiest person was Natsu. At this moment, he was standing in the center of the carpet, jumping up and down with a cheerful smile on his face: "Happy, look! I'm in good spirits!"

　　The blue cat was equally excited: "Hey hey! This is amazing! Natsu isn't dizzy!"

　　Lucy turned around and looked at Natsu in surprise, who was in great spirits. Suddenly she remembered that this guy was prone to transportation sickness.

　　"Yeah! This should also be considered a means of transportation, right?"

　　"Of course it counts, but because I cast balance magic on the blanket, most of the vehicles I made have this magic, which can ensure that the user will not get carsick, seasick, or flying blanket sickness, so Natsu can be so energetic."

　　Kira explained to Happy and Lucy, "This blanket is very expensive. If Natsu pukes on it, we won't be able to pay for it even if we sell Happy."

　　"I'm not selling Harpy!"

　　"That's right!"

　　"Balance magic?"

　　Seeing that Lucy was a little confused, Kira patiently explained to her, thinking that everyone in the guild is his subordinate and must know this common sense: "The word magic I use is a very comprehensive magic. There is a kind of magic that can use the true meaning of words to transform objects."

　　"For example, now that I have modified the balance of the flying carpet, Natsu will naturally not feel dizzy."

　　Although Lucy didn't quite understand what he said, she was still surprised: "It sounds like a very powerful magic."

　　Then, Kira introduced Erza and Gray's magic to Lucy one by one: "You should already know Natsu's magic, the Fire Dragon Slayer Magic, which makes him immune to fire and can restore his strength by eating fire; Erza uses Knight Magic, which is a kind of costume magic, and can use different armor and equipment to fight; finally, Gray's magic is Ice Shaping Magic."

　　Word spirits, knights, ice?

　　"Gray, show this newcomer your magic."

　　"You are such a trouble..."

　　No one knew whether he was simply listening to the advice or intentionally showing off his skills, but although Gray muttered something to himself, he still did as he was told.

　　"Ice Make!" With his hands together, an ice wall as tall as a person, as wide as two arms, and ten centimeters thick appeared on the blanket, just blocking the oncoming wind.

　　Well, the wind is weaker now, but the air is cooler at high altitudes...

　　Fire? Ice?

　　Lucy seemed to have thought of something, "Oh! So that's why Natsu and Gray's relationship is so bad?"

　　Erza also asked, "Is that so?"

　　Gray curled his lips: "Who cares what you say..."

　　"Although they often fight, they actually have a very good relationship."

　　“Who has a good relationship with him!!!”

　　Natsu and Gray shouted at the same time, their faces full of disdain for each other.

　　"Look, look, this is perfect tacit understanding!"

　　The two of them stopped talking for a moment and turned their heads away awkwardly, which actually made Lucy believe Kira's words a little more.

　　"Isn't it normal for companions to have good relationships with each other?" Erza was very pleased. What she liked to see most was everyone getting along with each other.

　　Kira suddenly thought, is there a possibility that Erza is actually a black-bellied girl who likes to see Natsu and Gray being uncomfortable in front of her but having to pretend to be harmonious, so she deliberately maintains this simple and serious personality?

　　It’s scary to think about it, maybe Erza is the only person in the entire Fairy Tail who is better at acting than me?

　　Unable to think any further, Kira patted his face gently, which made Erza confused. She seemed to feel that Kira was thinking about something strange just now.

　　"Ahem... Well, according to convention, let's make the distribution first!"

　　Lucy asked, "Distribute? Distribute what?"

　　Happy explained to her: "That's Kira's habit when doing missions. When I did missions with him before, he liked to investigate the enemy's information before the battle. If it was a team mission, he would choose his opponent according to his own situation. This way, the mission can be carried out more systematically."

　　Choosing an opponent? I didn't expect this to happen.

　　“How do you choose then?”

　　Lucy asked curiously, but she knew the next second because Natsu and Gray had already shown 'very interesting' expressions, their favorite thing was fighting.

　　Natsu's clenched fists began to smolder with anger: "No need to distribute, just leave it all to me!"

　　Gray's hands also began to tremble with coldness: "Leave the strongest one to me, and leave the small fry to Natsu."

　　How can this be called selecting an opponent? This is clearly just stealing monsters! So the so-called selecting an opponent means you can hit whoever you want?

　　Lucy punched Natsu on the head: "Idiot, our opponent is a guild, and there are only five of us..."

　　"Natsu is still not capable of this. I guess just leave it to me." Gray looked proud.

　　"What did you say?"

　　Seeing the two of them huddled together angrily, Kira was suddenly speechless. Have these two forgotten that Erza is still here?

　　Looking back, Erza acted as if she didn't see anything. She just looked into the distance quietly, completely ignoring the quarrel between Natsu and Gray, like a boss watching his younger brothers quarreling.

　　Since Erza didn't show up, Kira had to speak up to stop them: "Hey, hey, stop making trouble, you two, pay attention to traffic safety..."

　　The effect was obvious. The two of them didn't listen to Kira at all. Although there were many powerful people in the guild, only Erza had enough authority, so the only one who could stop them was...

　　Kira turned his gaze towards Erza.

　　"That's enough! Erza is still watching you! Sit down and listen carefully!"

　　As expected, Erza's reputation worked. As soon as she spoke, Natsu and Gray sat down obediently.

　　"Ahem..." Kira cleared his throat and said calmly, "The Iron Forest isn't very strong, but they have a large number of people... Let's put it this way, leave the minions and a few cadres to Natsu, Gray, and Lucy; Erza can concentrate on dealing with Eligor. By the way, Eligor uses wind magic."

　　Hearing this assignment, Natsu and Gray were a little disappointed: "No! I want to fight Eligore!"

　　Kira shook his head helplessly: "No."

　　"Wait, what do you do?"

　　"I will be responsible for the final coordination and preventing any unexpected events. If Lalabai really loses control, someone with sufficient physical and magical power will be needed to deal with it. Only in this case will I take action."

　　Actually, Kira just wanted to be lazy...

　　"Erusa!"

　　Natsu suddenly called Erza seriously, which made Gray and Lucy look at him sideways. Is this guy trying to steal the monster from Erza? Is he going to die?

　　Gray then heard Natsu say something even crazier than stealing monsters.

　　"I can accept this arrangement, but after this is over, come and fight me!"

　　"What?!" Lucy, Happy, and Gray were all shocked by Natsu's courage, "Doesn't this guy want to live?"

　　The atmosphere on the flying carpet froze for a moment. Erza stared quietly into Natsu's eyes. The cherry blossom-haired boy's eyes were firm, confident, and powerful like flames.

　　It seems that Natsu has really become stronger! Erza thought to herself, feeling relieved like a sister seeing her brother grow up.

　　"Okay, I promise. I'll have a serious fight with you when I get back."

　　"It's a deal then!" Natsu's whole body suddenly became ablaze with passion, "I'm on fire!!!"

　　This action drew Lucy's fist: "You bastard, put out the fire! What if the flying carpet is burned!"

　　"Don't worry! My flying carpet is fireproof..." Kira said with a smile. Suddenly, he felt something flowing through the corner of his eyes, and his expression instantly turned cold. "But, this water is a bit difficult to deal with."

　　A few people looked back and found that the ice that Gray had just created began to liquefy because of the fire on Natsu's body. Half of the flying carpet was wet. A roar scared away the flock of birds not far away.

　　"You two bastards!!!"
