Chapter 42: Lucy, you don’t want the Star Key to be treated maliciously, do you?
In Kira's opinion, after traveling to the world of Fairy Tail, there is no need to struggle desperately like other travelers. He just needs to join Fairy Tail. Being strong or weak will not affect the plot at all. In the end, he will be safe anyway.
It can be said that among the famous comic books, this world is the safest.
I don't have any deep hatred, nor do I have unrealistic dreams. I'm not a master at courting death. I don't chase after fame and fortune, and I'm not greedy for money or lustful. There aren't many regrets in the original work that can be made up for.
Maybe one of them is that Urrutia grew old, one is that Irene died, and one is that the Magic King failed to let Mavis and Zeref know of his existence. And that’s it.
Kira is not like those "protagonists" who say they want to survive but actually cause trouble everywhere. He firmly believes that as long as he makes good use of the known information, he can live a good life.
He would never try those plots where the protagonist plays dumb and tries to eat the tiger, where the enemies are stupid, disgusting and artificial, and are both self-righteous and make people want to vomit. He would let the protagonist fight the boss, and he would silently provide intelligence and support behind the scenes. This is the real stable development, okay!
Kira felt that any time traveler with a bit of brains, after clearly knowing that they wanted to live a peaceful life, would not commit suicide every day in such a situation, but would hide and hold out until the end.
After all, the bosses in the original show were all targeting Fairy Tail! The other guilds didn't suffer any losses at all. The only one that might affect ordinary wizards was the "Face" that appeared in the Hades Gate chapter and might cause the disappearance of the continent's magic.
Thinking about it this way, it suddenly became clear! Anyway, you don’t have to fight the final boss yourself. If you are weaker, you can open a shop to do business. If you are stronger, you can just sit back and watch the show. In short, you can survive to the end anyway.
I am simply a clear stream among time travelers and a model of rebirth in another world.
In this life, economic difficulties can't catch up with him. As for the evil forces? Come on, "We are Fairy Tail"! Who dares to move?
Even more fortunately, he is now one of those people with slightly stronger strength, which helps him solve some trivial troubles in life.
Lucy was completely shocked by Kira's rich collection: "Four... four? Among them is the key to Ophiuchus? I thought it was just a legendary key, but it actually exists?"
"Of course it exists. The so-called legend exists to cover up the truth! There are four keys. Which one do you want to buy?"
After hearing Kira's words, Lucy didn't even think twice: Do I even need to choose? Of course I want them all!
"Or do you want them all? If you buy the keys I have, you will have eight keys. Do you suddenly want to collect all the Star Spirit Keys?"
"Well... well..." Lucy scratched her head and said shyly, "Although I really want them, I'm not a collector. As long as they are treated well, they don't have to be in my hands."
Hiss...what's going on?
Kira felt a dazzling light coming from Lucy, sacred, warm, and as dazzling as the sun!
Is that so? Is this the real Celestial Mage? People say that Celestial Mage uses magic based on love. Is this what it means?
I feel it! It is indeed a level that ordinary wizards like me cannot compare to!
"Well said, Lucy! You are worthy of being the best Celestial Mage!! I didn't expect you to say such a thing. I can feel your intention!" Kira couldn't help but give Lucy a thumbs up. "Just based on what you said, these four keys..."
Hmm? ? Is Kira going to give me these four golden star keys?
Lucy clasped her hands together, and her eyes instantly brightened up, as if they had become a new light in the sunlight!
Ah! I didn't expect things to take such a turn. I didn't expect Kira to be such a good person! He even said that I was the best celestial wizard. What a good judge of character!
Okay, this brother can handle it!
"I'll give you a 10% discount."
Lucy: "Uh... it's all for nothing."
Then she took a deep breath and said pleadingly, "Then you have to be cheaper, I don't have much money at the moment..."
Kira felt like her clothes were about to burst. "Hey, don't try that on me. I haven't used this kind of bargaining tactics since I was eight years old. If you don't buy it, I will sell the Star Spirit Key to those weird people!"
"Kira would never do such a thing!"
Lucy smiled brightly, which made Kira a little confused. "Girl, what's wrong with you? Do you trust me so much?"
"Um...why are you so sure?"
"Because you are my companion! So I believe you will never do such a thing!"
Ah, I can't take it anymore, it's so dazzling! What is this? This feeling? Is this the feeling of being trusted?
You're surprisingly innocent, Lucy... If you hadn't kept your chest so low, I would have almost believed it. It seems that you and Natsu have learned some useful tricks these days!
"Do you know me well? I'm not Natsu! I'm a businessman, and businessmen only care about profit..."
Lucy said seriously, her eyes determined, "But you have companions in your heart, don't you? I can see that Natsu, Happy, and the rest of Fairy Tail trust you, so I trust you too! Besides, you've had the key for so long, if you really wanted to sell it, you would have sold it long ago, right?"
Wow, even though he looks like a naive and romantic person, his intuition is surprisingly accurate!
Aren’t I just waiting for you to give me...money?
Speaking of which, Lucy has always been very smart and quick-witted in the original work. Whether she was the first one to think of the location of Mavis's grave on Tenrou Island, or the first one to think of using the Fairy Ball to seal Acnorolia in the final battle, it proved that her wisdom was not on the same level as Natsu and the others.
Well... not only is it the strongest team, it's probably also one of the best in the guild.
By the way, she can also use star map history, open three gates of star spirits, and rewrite the Book of Demons. From all these, it can be seen that her talent for knowledge is also very good!
Okay, this girl can do it!
As if thinking of something, Kira smiled evilly: "But if you don't buy them, what if their buyers abuse them in the future? Lucy, you don't want to see the Star Spirits being treated maliciously, right?"
Why did this guy's tone suddenly become so strange? Could it be...
Lucy seemed to understand something in an instant, and immediately crossed her arms and looked at Kira with strange eyes.
This actually surprised Kira a little bit... Why did you understand this joke so quickly? ? ! ! ! ! !
"Ahem..." Lucy, who realized that she shouldn't have understood it so quickly, suddenly looked a little embarrassed and shy. She then pretended to cough and looked at Kira seriously and said, "How could a Celestial Mage abuse his companions? Would he still be considered a qualified Celestial Mage?"
Such confidence and serious attitude made Kira speechless.
"There are all kinds of birds in the forest. Not all people in this world are as kind as you, Lucy!" Kira was silent for two seconds and said, "You know Kallen from Blue Pegasus, right? She was a famous weekly model back then. Three years ago--"
"Kira! Lucy! What are you talking about?"
As luck would have it, Rocky, wearing a green leather coat, came up at this time and interrupted what Kira was about to say.
"You've arrived just in time... Rocky! What's the matter?"
Rocky's face was a little heavy: "Kira, I want to ask you something, what you got in the last mission..."
"Look! They've started!"
Just like Rocky interrupted Kira, his words were also interrupted by Passerby A's exclamation. It was strange, why do people in this guild like to interrupt others? I wonder who learned this from?
Anyway, Kira felt that it definitely wasn’t him!
"Just watch it first, and we'll talk about it later if there's anything!"
Kira turned and left, leaving Rocky in silence and Lucy still dreaming of collecting.
