Chapter 439: When you are sick, taking medicine won’t work in ten minutes
During this time, Magnolia suddenly broke out with a very serious cold.
The disease was brought from other towns, and many people were infected. No matter men, women, or children, once they caught a cold, they had to stay in bed for at least a week.
As a result, Magnolia residents rarely left their homes, and Kira's business naturally plummeted.
In the Hope Cottage, Kira leaned on his recliner, holding a magic book in his hand, drinking black tea and cake beside him, enjoying the afternoon sunshine and dessert.
After a long while, Kira closed the book and sighed, "It seems that no one has come to buy things recently. Is everyone lying in bed and unable to move?"
Knock, knock, knock... I heard the sound of knocking on the shop door.
“Who is it?!”
The knocks on the door became more and more urgent, and then a familiar voice came: "Kira! Kira! I know you are in there, open the door!!"
"Is it Natsu and Happy? Why are they looking for me at a time like this?" Thinking of this, Kira suddenly shuddered, "Wait! Will these two guys pass on their cold to me?"
Luckily, I just locked the door, so they shouldn't be able to get in for now...
"Stop knocking! What do you want? The store is closed today!" Kira stood close to the store door and shouted outside, completely forgetting that he was complaining about the lack of business in the store just a second ago.
"Kira, come out quickly, we have something very important to discuss with you!"
"Is it something important? Did Natsu break something again, or did Happy fail to catch fish again?"
Happy's anxious voice came: "It's not our problem, Lucy is in trouble!!"
…
Three minutes later, on the street.
Kira was wearing a coat and a mask, wrapping himself tightly like a mysterious wizard in a comic who was carrying out a secret mission; two meters away from him was Natsu, who was wearing a black suit as usual with a white dragon scale scarf around his neck, and Happy who was inseparable from him.
The direction they were heading was Lucy's home.
"So, what happened to Lucy?"
Natsu held his head in his hands, looking a little sullen, "Lucy is sick and is now bedridden with a high fever !"
"If you're sick, go find a doctor! Why are you looking for me?"
"She has taken the doctor's medicine, but she hasn't gotten any better... So I was thinking, didn't you often use magic to heal people in the past? Maybe you have a way."
After hearing what Natsu said, Kira rolled his eyes and said, "Although you guys are smart enough to think of using magic to solve life's problems, shouldn't you ask Wendy for help with this kind of thing? Her expertise is more relevant!"
"It seems that Wendy went somewhere with Senior Pellucica. We can't find her for the time being..."
"No way?! Seniors Wendy and Pellucica? Are they going to discuss a will or something?!" Kira was instantly shocked.
"Uh... I guess not."
Really! As soon as Lucy got sick, these two guys became so lifeless. The cat stopped complaining and the people stopped making trouble. It was boring at all!
"Forget it. Since this is the case, I can only go and see her. Oh, right! How long has she been taking the medicine?"
"Ten minutes."
"Goodbye!" Kira turned and left.
"No! Kira!! You must save Lucy!!"
Seeing that Kira was about to leave, Natsu and Happy flew over directly. One hugged Kira's waist, and the other grabbed Kira's legs. They howled and shouted, holding on tightly in their hands to prevent him from leaving. "She is our companion! Are you just going to leave like this?"
“How cruel!”
“How cruel!”
Kira expressionlessly twisted Natsu's big hands and said, "Let go! Are you two idiots?! I thought the medicine really didn't work. How can it have any effect in just ten minutes? It's not even enough time to eat a meal. Can't you wait a little longer? You have to wait at least ten hours to see no effect before coming to me, right?"
"Ten hours?! That's too long!!"
"That's right...Lucy looks like she's in pain!!"
"If you two could get in front of me and open your eyes to see clearly, you would know that I am in pain too! How can someone take medicine and see results in ten minutes? Even an injection is not that fast!"
"Please! Please go over and take a look!!"
The two men and the cat struggled on the street for several minutes, and finally Kira was defeated.
"Really? I really can't do anything with you guys..."
Just when he was about to say something, he suddenly found the point, "Wait! You two came to see me and then left Lucy alone at home with a high fever?"
The Nazihabi turned and gave Kira a strange look, and answered in unison: "Of course not! Of course someone at home is taking care of her!"
"Who is taking care of her? Erza and Gray? They don't look like they would take care of anyone..."
“Neither!”
"Kira, don't you know?"
Is there something I should know?
"Recently... Selene has been staying at Lucy's house!"
…
Lucy's house.
After being invited by Natsu to enter Lucy's bedroom and cast a "disease removal" spell on her, whose effect was unknown, Kira returned to the living room and started chatting with Selene.
"I never thought you would live in Lucy's house... Is it because the odor in the president's house is too strong?"
Selene's appearance at home is no different from her appearance when she goes out. She is always wearing a loose kimono that reveals her double crescent and long legs. If she lived in Makarov's house, it is really hard to imagine what would happen - I guess we will see the president in a wheelchair in a few days...
"I just thought it would be more convenient to live with a girl, and Lucy agreed readily."
I think you used force to force her to agree!
"What about Kurnuki and Disper?"
"I think he went to the mountains to practice. I heard that the kid liked Kurnuki's swordsmanship more, and they had a quarrel because of it."
Training in the mountains? They are really good. The first disciple hasn't decided yet, and the second disciple is not even there yet. Are they going to teach swordsmanship directly? Wouldn't they say it's unfair then?
"No wonder I haven't seen them recently..."
"You didn't see them, just because you stayed at home?"
After briefly finding out about the recent situation of these guys, Kira and Selene turned the topic to the purpose of this trip.
"How's Lucy? Is she feeling better?"
"How can an illness be cured so easily? She's still sleeping! She's sleeping more contentedly than a harpy hugging a fish. Natsu is watching over her, and I secretly took a photo of her, ready to wait until she wakes up..."
Kira said with interest, and even put his hand into his arms to show something to the other party, but suddenly he remembered that the person in front of him was not interested in CP, and suddenly felt a little disappointed, "Forget it, you probably have no interest in this kind of thing."
Selene continued to drink her tea without caring.
"But then again, I thought you would actually take care of humans..."
"Actually, I didn't do anything. It was all done by the two of them."
The "two of them" that Selene mentioned were, of course, Natsu and Happy. From her, she learned that when Lucy fell ill, these two changed their usual noisy ways and stayed by her side, asking about her health, serving her tea and water, and taking care of her meticulously.
"Eh~really?"
Kira was immediately interested in what the other party said. It must be said that this topic directly aroused his curiosity. "I can almost imagine the scene of their married life..."
"I was just a little impatient," she added.
"I can see that."
Otherwise, he wouldn't have rushed over to find me just ten minutes after taking the medicine.
…
Kira and Selene were drinking tea and chatting in the living room while Natsu was watching over Lucy in her room, and this pattern continued until the sun set and Lucy came out of her bedroom.
"Hey, Lucy, you awake?"
"Kira?! Why are you here?"
"Natsu and Happy pulled me here. How are you?"
"I feel much better now. I feel relaxed all over!"
Kira nodded and stood up to leave, "Really? I'll be back first then. By the way, where are Natsu and Happy?"
Lucy looked a little embarrassed: "Well ..."
"What's wrong?"
Could it be that Lucy is fine, but these two are sick? No, no... idiots shouldn't catch a cold!
"When I woke up, these two were sleeping next to me. They must have been busy with my illness..."
Kira walked to the bedroom door and looked inside curiously, and found that Natsu and Happy were actually fast asleep on Lucy's bed. "Really... have you already developed to the point of sleeping together? Are you really stimulated by Ed Natsu and Ed Lucy?"
Lucy panicked and blushed: "Eh?! No... No..."
"Alright, alright...we're all adults now, I understand!"
"No...what do you know?! It's definitely not what you think!!"
"Still want to quibble? I've recorded the evidence!" Kira laughed mysteriously, "I'll show you the photos in two days. Natsu did this and that while you were sleeping~"
"Eh?!! What did he do?! Don't leave!! Explain yourself clearly!!"
Bang!
"Really... Kira always says things that make me worry..."
…
The autumn night in Magnolia was cooler than a cold shower with ice in your mouth . The evening breeze slapped Kira's thin body, making his coat rustle.
Turning a corner, he caught a glimpse of Gray and Juvia on a date—Kira cursed in his heart and pretended not to see them; turning another corner, he saw Gajeel and Levi on a date—Kira cursed in his heart again and pretended not to see them again...
"Ah Qiu! Ah Qiu!...Oh my god, I'm not catching a cold too...It's all because of that Natsu guy!"
Kira became furious when he thought about how Natsu was probably sleeping soundly in her warm bed with Happy in one hand and Lucy in the other.
"Damn it!! This jealous bastard!! I must find a time to teach him a lesson... That's right! It should be during this year's Harvest Festival!!"
