Chapter 11 I am Lucy, not Daisy!
Chapter 11 I am Lucy, not Daisy!
"It's the cute little furball that appeared during the day!"
This time it was Lucy's turn to be attracted, and she excitedly opened her arms to Kuriboh.
The chestnut ball seemed to have a good impression of Lucy. It turned around to ask Chess for his opinion, and after receiving his consent, it floated into the soft and gentle embrace of Lucy.
After petting the fur for a while, the two blonde girls put down the cute creatures they were holding.
Kuriboh and Pru stood on the coffee table, silently staring at each other for two and a half seconds.
"Curry?"
"Pfft?"
"Curry, Curry!"
"Pfft~"
After exchanging greetings via encrypted communication, the two adorable creatures held hands and played together, becoming good friends.
The world of adorable creatures is truly wonderful.
Whether it was Puru or Kuriboh, Natsu clearly had no interest in these cute things, glancing at them before looking away.
He rested his chin on his hand, pondered for a moment, then looked at Chess and asked suspiciously, "Chess, when I came in just now, I sensed a terrifying surge of magical energy. Was that from you?"
"I think I felt it too."
Lucy agreed with this.
"I got a new card monster, and just as I was about to summon it, you guys suddenly barged in," Chase said, shrugging without hiding anything.
"A new card monster?! What is it?!"
Natsu immediately perked up.
"Don't be surprised, Natsu, this is a legendary, incredibly powerful monster, hailed as a god..."
"Osiris the Sky Dragon!"
Chess smiled mysteriously and took out the Sky Dragon card, displaying it on the coffee table.
Natsu and Lucy peered over and were immediately stunned by the imposing image of the Sky Dragon.
Crimson bone wings, double fangs, and a clawed dragon body...
Just one glance was enough to send the overwhelming ferocity emanating from the dragon through the card straight into one's heart, shaking one's mind!
This is the power of a phantom god!
"A dragon?!" Natsu's expression changed drastically.
Whether it was due to the influence of the Dragon Slayer Magic or not, it was very clear that his entire body was trembling violently.
In contrast, Lucy's exclamation was deafening.
"Mr. Chase, are you planning to summon this terrifying behemoth right here in your own house, in the town of Magnolia?!"
The brief words struck Chase like a bolt from the blue.
Belatedly realizing what was happening, his pupils widened and his mouth gaped open, revealing an expression of utter shock.
"It's here! That expression really shows she hasn't considered the consequences!"
Lucy took in Chase's changing expression and sighed, rubbing her forehead.
Chess wants to summon a dragon in the city, and Natsu wants to find a dragon in the city...
No wonder these two seem so close; they're cut from the same cloth!
Lucy's image of the S-class mage as a reliable figure suffered a major setback.
"That's really unexpected, Lucy. You actually had such a comprehensive consideration all at once."
Chase snapped out of his daze, coughed lightly to cover his embarrassment, and nodded with great surprise.
Although he had no hope of successfully summoning the Sky Dragon, he was not worried or even considered that the Sky Dragon's arrival would cause destruction to the town.
—The townspeople are very understanding and will certainly not hold a grudge against him over such a small matter (I'm sure of it).
However, the potential panic this could cause is a serious problem, and the subsequent reporting process to the council is extremely cumbersome and troublesome.
"No, do you think something that any normal person could figure out would surprise Mr. Chase so much?!"
Lucy pointed incredulously at herself, her freshly washed hair bristling with anger.
Mr. Mingchas is the real idiot who doesn't consider the consequences of his actions!
Chase didn't reply. Instead, he leaned close to the puzzled dark mage girl's ear and whispered, "Lucy gives me the impression of being a silly, clumsy, and incredibly gullible little girl."
"...I heard everything."
"Well, anyway, thanks for the reminder, Daisy," Chase said with a chuckle, scratching his head.
Lucy's defenses crumbled: "I'm too lazy to even pretend anymore! I'm Lucy, not Doze off!!"
Just then, a wave of heat suddenly rolled in from the side, and Natsu's impatient urging rang out.
"Chase, what are you waiting for? Summon that dragon now!"
"It looks incredibly powerful! I really want to fight it with Dragon Slayer Magic! I'm so excited!"
Are there more experts?
Looking at Natsu, who hadn't listened to the conversation at all and was now burning fiercely, Lucy sighed and felt utterly exhausted.
In the ideal scenario, I should be lying comfortably in bed right now, hugging a soft and cute pillow.
How did I end up with two such brilliant people by such a strange twist of fate?!
"Oh, that might not be possible for now."
Chase retrieved the Sky Dragon from the coffee table, glanced at the trio of Happy, Blue, and Kuriboh who were awkwardly dancing with their arms around each other, and admitted, "Unfortunately, my current magic power is not enough to summon the Sky Dragon."
He gained this clear understanding while chanting the incantation.
Although the final result was interrupted by Natsu and Lucy's unexpected appearance, at that moment, the extremely imposing giant shadow of the Sky Dragon still appeared in the depths of his consciousness, fleeting like a shooting star.
Then, with the help of secret techniques, his magical power was depleted.
If you force a summon regardless of the cost, you can probably only make the Sky Dragon descend for a second at most.
It's completely useless...
However, Chase did not seem too frustrated, as this was not much different from what he had initially expected.
Conversely, the harder it is to summon the Sky Dragon, the more valuable it is as one of the strongest monsters in the deck!
This is a good thing.
After all, what we'll be facing in the future are monsters of the level of Zeref, Acnologia the Black Dragon, and the Five Divine Dragons!
"What a pity."
Upon learning the situation, Natsu lowered his head in disappointment, and the flames surrounding his body instantly dissipated.
"Lucy, Happy, let's go back." He waved and prepared to leave.
This "night raid" was to get revenge on Chess for what happened during the day. Now that Chess's magic was exhausted and the cool and mysterious Sky Dragon was nowhere to be seen, there was no intention to stay any longer.
Upon hearing this, Lucy stood up at lightning speed and nodded in strong agreement.
Although she still had a lot to say to the super cute Dark Magician girl, she didn't want to stay at Chase's house for another second.
—At least not at this time, and not in this outfit.
"etc."
Chase called out to stop the two people and the cat who were about to climb over the wall (there was no door).
"Lucypul can go first, but Natsu who smashed the door and Happy who scratched the coffee table, don't be in such a hurry."
Chess stretched his limbs, his knuckles cracking, "Come over here and have a few private words, let's reconnect as men."
The dark mage beside him understood immediately, and with a sly chuckle, raised her magic wand.
Natsu and Happy exchanged a glance, immediately sensing something was wrong.
Best buddies can understand each other's thoughts instantly without words, and they both want to slip away at the same time.
However, just as they were about to make a move, Chase suddenly raised his hand.
Open the cover!
Buzz!
Three shimmering golden lightsabers fell from the ceiling, firmly binding Natsu and Happy in place.
【Holy Light Protective Sword】: A binding magic card with power comparable to an S-rank sealing magic.
