Chapter 116 The Fusion of Ice and Fire!
"Chess! Over here!"
Mira, who was chatting with Lucy at the makeshift bar, immediately noticed Chase walking into the construction site and waved her arms vigorously.
Upon hearing this, Chess bypassed the chaotic area where Natsu and Gray were leading the way in Fairy Tail's daily brawls and walked along the edge of the fence.
"Good morning, Mira and Lucy."
He greeted her and casually sat down next to Lucy.
"Early Chess".
Good morning, Chesgo!
After saying that, Mira bent down slightly and took out the breakfast she had hidden from the cabinet at the temporary bar: "Here, in these extraordinary times, let's just have something simple for now."
A pink plate was pushed over, and Chase looked down to see a carton of milk, a red bean bread, and two boiled eggs.
Although it's a "simple meal," it's quite good by nutritional standards for breakfast.
Chess, of course, didn't stand on ceremony at all. He picked up the bread, tore open the packaging, and took a bite out of half of it.
Lucy, however, narrowed her eyes and noticed the details: the quality of the bread and the packaging of the carton milk were completely different from the "work lunch" that Mira had just given her!
"I just happened to pass by the best pastry shop in town and bought it on the spot. How was it?" Mira blinked and asked Lucy with a smile: "Did you really just happen to pass by?!"
"Not bad, but—"
Chase glanced at the half-eaten loaf of bread in his hand. "Is this freshly bought? Why is it still a little warm?"
Judging from the presence of Nazgre and the others, he hadn't arrived early; the bread and such should have been cold by now.
"Because I've been keeping it close to my chest to keep you warm," Mira said with a smile.
"Huh?!" Chase suddenly noticed a hint of milkiness in the bread in his hand.
"Haha, just kidding! There are special magical insulated boxes."
As she spoke, Mira pulled out a pink metal box that looked a bit like a microwave oven from under the counter.
There are no batteries or power cords; you just need to inject magic into the crystal ball at the top to use it normally. "I see, that puts my mind at ease."
Chess breathed a sigh of relief and continued to enjoy his unfinished breakfast.
......
.
Mira's gentle smile immediately froze.
What does "Don't worry, you stinky dealer" mean?!
Lucy sensed something was wrong and was startled. She quietly moved her chair to keep a safe distance from Chase.
Just as Mira was about to get some answers from Satan's spirit, a helmet flew towards her from the scene of the fight with a "whoosh".
Despite being turned away from the dehydrating, boiled egg clothes, Chess reacted quickly, grabbing them firmly without even looking.
Looking at the helmet hovering steadily in front of her, Mira smiled faintly, abandoning the idea of receiving the magic.
Whoosh!
Immediately afterward, a reflective construction vest, which had been tossed high into the air, fell down and landed precisely on Lucy's head, as if it had a navigation system attached to it.
Since she had just created some distance, even if Chase noticed, he couldn't help her.
"By the way, where are the president and Erza?" Chase asked while eating an egg.
"The verdicts for Phantom and Joseph are out today, so the guild master was summoned to the council early this morning."
Mira rested her chin on her hand, tilted her head thoughtfully for a moment, and said, "As for Erza—"
"She probably went to get her equipment repaired and maintained, right? I heard her mention it last night."
"I see. No wonder those guys dared to make such a racket at the construction site."
"Well, it's good that it's lively, since it's always been like this~"
While Chase was chatting with Mira, Lucy, who had just taken off the reflective vest that Gray had casually thrown away, was tragically hit by Elfman's slipper.
So, having taken the blame for all the new guild members, he slunk back to Chess, who was now completely safe, and inwardly cursed himself for his earlier act of running away.
There's no other way! I can't just rush over like Erza and punch each of those monsters, can I?
That would be a terrible death!
"That's true, but if we let them keep causing trouble, the new guild will be stillborn."
Chase finished the last sip of milk, slowly got up, stretched his limbs, and then walked towards the rioting crowd.
"Oh dear, it's good to get some exercise after a good meal." Mira still had a faint smile on her lips.
"Wait, wait, if Chesgo joins, then the new guild is truly doomed, isn't it?!" Lucy exclaimed.
In the time it takes to say two sentences, Chess has already arrived in front of Nazgre and the others.
Hey! You guys, that's enough already!
Lucy was stunned by Erza's tone: She really went to break up the fight?!
"If we're going to fight, let's make it more exciting! This kind of petty squabble is nothing!"
Lucy: So you wanted to make more noise, huh?!
hum!
Chess's body erupted with magical power.
The crowd, still making a ruckus, sensed this terrifying aura. Their fierce eyes instantly cleared, and they all stopped throwing punches at each other's faces.
Having drawn everyone's attention, Chase's fingertips flashed with light, and a card was generated.
"No way? We're going to use that magic card here?"
Lucy recognized the card.
That's right, it's the "fusion" that I witnessed last night!
Seeing this as a rare opportunity, Chase prepared to further test the effects of the fusion and to use the Sky Dragon's God-Slaying Magic, which he had honed for many days, in actual combat.
After all, practice is the only way to test the effectiveness of everything.
Based on these two points, the difference in strength between the objects of fusion cannot be too great, and the magic must also have enough unique features.
Adding a touch of personal emotion, Natsu and Gray, these two excellent "materials," were immediately targeted by Chess.
"Magic Card Fusion, activated!"
Given the irreconcilable differences between these two, they certainly wouldn't obediently accept the fusion, so he didn't even bother to say hello and immediately activated the card effect.
hum!
A fusion magic circle instantly formed beneath their feet.
"Fuse? Feed Chess! Wait, I don't want to fuse with this freakish ice block!!"
"Merge, merge? You damn fireball, what do you mean by that?!"
Having witnessed the fusion firsthand, Natsu looked resistant, while Gray, completely unaware of it, got goosebumps all over.
The two watched helplessly as the merging light completely engulfed them, dragging them toward the center of the magic circle.
Time was of the essence; a blinding light illuminated the entire venue.
Before the others could figure out what was going on, a biting storm suddenly swept out, making them all shiver.
After the cold wind, there is a dry and scorching heat wave, as if you are in the heart of a furnace.
Amidst this contrast of ice and fire, a figure radiating a strange yet powerful magic slowly stepped out and appeared in everyone's sight!
