Chapter 372: Only in the hot spring can we be honest with each other
The Fairy Tail world is a world full of magic, and the Kingdom of Fiore is a country with developed magic.
Because of the abundant magical power, this world is blessed with outstanding people and beautiful scenery; because of the advanced magic, the development of industrial technology is suppressed, and naturally there are many beautiful mountains and rivers.
The "Winter Hot Spring Hotel" is built on the mountainside, which is a dead volcano. There is still uncooled magma under the ground. Under the influence of this heat source, a huge natural hot spring is formed, and the hot spring hotel here has developed .
Due to the excellent effects, every winter, countless people go to the "Winter Hot Spring Hotel" to soak in the hot springs, including many nobles, wealthy businessmen, and celebrities. Over time, this place has become one of the most famous resorts in the Kingdom of Fiore.
Kira got Makarov's hot spring invitation ticket, so he naturally wanted to enjoy it.
This is a group invitation ticket, and in order not to waste it, Kira brought along his younger brothers and sisters, namely Urrutia, Jellal, Melty, and Eric, who had been left alone for a long time.
In the men's bath at a winter hot spring hotel, several people stripped down to nothing except a bath towel, each leaning against the smoothly cut rocks, enjoying this rare and expensive experience.
"It's rare to find a boss like this who's already blessed before he even starts working!"
“This is love!”
"I don't have to worry about the wizarding world during this period of time. It's much more comfortable than before!"
Compared to the others, Gerard was more alert: "Don't be too relaxed! I heard that big shots from the government often hang out here, especially at this time!"
On the side, An Ye said in a deep voice: "Indeed, our identities are special after all, so we should come to occasions like this less often."
“Then why are you enjoying the bath so much?!” Kira emerged from the water with a splash. “If I had known you were so reluctant, I would have brought my guildmates with me. Humph! I won’t look for you next time!”
"No, no, no... I'm not unwilling! Hey! You two, why don't you apologize to the boss!"
After a burst of noise, Kira waved his hand and said, "Alright, alright, I brought you here this time mainly to formally confirm the future guidelines of our organization!"
"Now? Where are the other three?"
Eric was asking about Urrutia, Sono, and Melty, who were not here. The "Winter Hot Spring" was not a mixed bath, so the three of them were naturally in the women's bath next door - this made Kira very disappointed, but in such an expensive place, it was normal for the hot spring to be divided into men's and women's baths.
Kira smiled confidently, and released his magical perception, connecting his magic to the minds of the three people next door: "Don't worry, I can use telepathic magic!"
In the women's bath next door, the heat from the mountain evaporated the spring water into mist, and the thick water vapor formed several layers of mosaics in the air of the bath.
Even though the three women are naked at this moment, due to the effect of the mosaic, except for themselves, everyone else, including the author and readers, can only see their heads and arms.
Sorono lazily stretched his muscles in the spring water, enjoying the feeling of the hot air constantly pouring into his body. His back unconsciously straightened, and he made a dreamy sound: "It's so comfortable~ It's worthy of being the most famous hot spring hotel in the Kingdom of Fiore! I feel like the fatigue of the past few months has been dissipated~"
With long white hair, bangs, and skin as smooth as a baby's, plus the moan coming from the bottom of her heart, she looks pure and lustful. Anyone who sees this scene can understand why she used to be nicknamed "Angel".
Next to Sorono, Urrutia's face was also flushed due to blood circulation, and her naturally long black straight hair was soaked in the water. In the dim light, only her graceful figure and beautiful body could be seen, showing the charm of a beautiful woman taking a bath.
"Although I didn't get paid, it's not impossible to compensate by taking a hot spring bath - it's worth my hard work on Tianlang Island."
Compared to the other two, Myers seemed a little at a loss. It was not known whether it was because he was taking a hot spring bath with Urrutia or because he was taking a hot spring bath with Sorono, a person he was not very familiar with. He shrank into the hot spring, not daring to see anyone, with only his head showing .
Just as the three of them relaxed their bodies and minds to the extreme, Kira's voice sounded in their minds at the same time: "Hello...your boss invites you to join the group chat."
The three of them were stunned at the same time, their bodies froze, and then...
“Ahh——!!!” Melty screamed at over 80 decibels and immediately shrank into the hot spring.
Ultear and Sorono's reactions were not very big, but there was a hint of unnaturalness on their faces, and they were obviously surprised by Kira's behavior.
"No need to scream, no need to blush, and no need to shrink yourself into the hot spring. We can't see it!"
Then Melty's face turned even redder.
In the men's bath next door, Jellal couldn't help but say to Kira, "It would be strange if they didn't blush if you did this, right?"
“Eh——?! Really?” Kira’s big sky-blue eyes were full of doubts, but he continued to speak on the telepathic channel, “Could it be that they are not used to telepathic magic? Then I’ll go over there and talk to them directly…”
"You are obviously pretending to be stupid!!!" Sorono shouted directly, "What do you have to say now?"
Kira answered as a matter of course: "The elders in my family taught me that people can be frank with each other when they are in the hot springs, so it is the best time to communicate openly. I think everyone is not a child anymore, and it is normal to have some secrets in your heart. Perhaps only in this situation can we open our hearts and talk properly?"
"It's in this situation that you can't talk properly! What kind of education did you receive?!"
Urrutia's voice interrupted their conversation: "If you have anything to say, just say it!"
"What else? Of course we have to start the activities we organize!"
"What activity?"
"After the fall of Devil's Heart and Hades' Gate, the dark guilds in Fiore Kingdom are bound to be leaderless! They didn't dare to act rashly before because they had the Balamu Alliance in charge. But now... hehe! The Council is probably worried about those dark guilds."
This situation is like the new world after Whitebeard's death, where all the bad elements and ambitious people who were suppressed are now coming out in anger.
But this is not a bad thing. After all, destruction comes before construction, chaos comes before order, and this process is a good opportunity to fish in troubled waters.
Hearing Kira's words, Jellal immediately guessed: "Do you want us to replace the Balam Alliance and unify the dark world?"
In Jellal's opinion, since Kira mentioned the current situation of the dark world, he must be going to take action against them. Now there are only a few people in the guild (in Jellal's eyes, the "money-making organization" is a guild) and some savings left by Brian. If they want to develop in a short period of time, absorbing those scattered guilds is the fastest way.
Speaking of Brian, after Kira found the information about the Dragon Slayer Research Institute in his mind, he threw it away and no one knew where it went afterwards.
Gerard's words made Eric and the others change their expressions. In the past two months, they have experienced the beauty of freedom. If possible, no one wants to return to the dark world and become a tool for killing again.
Fortunately, Kira's answer did not disappoint them.
"Unifying the dark world... that would be too time-consuming and laborious! I think we should just rob the gangs. Those guys aren't good people anyway, so it doesn't matter if we just take their money!"
"I can't pay so much salary for now, so let's wait until we have more money before hiring people! Also, we should go the elite route. We can have fewer people, but they can't be too weak! Well... at least they can't be weaker than Sorono!"
Hearing this, Sorono's exasperated voice instantly erupted in the telepathic channel and the women's bath at the same time: "What did you say?! I'm weak? Tell me, who made me like this? You know, two months ago I was still a celestial wizard who could open doors twice! If you hadn't given my key to that girl, how could I have fallen into this state now?! Also, didn't you say you would teach me new magic? When are you going to teach me?!..."
After she finished her rant, Kira argued with reason, sticking to the facts, his voice neither humble nor arrogant: "But wasn't it because you were weak that I defeated you? It's because you relied too much on the Star Spirit Key, so you had no fighting power at all after losing the key..."
Konguo was even more unconvinced: "I am a Celestial Mage!! This is what a Celestial Mage is!! I don't believe that the damn girl in your guild can be that strong without the key!!"
"I'm so sorry, she has now learned 'Star Chart History', a super magic that is only available to celestial wizards!"
