Chapter 53: Qualities a Real Man Should Possess
In the northern part of the Kingdom of Fiore, in the sacred peak, Zonia.
It was covered in ice and snow, with the wind blowing bitterly, and it seemed as if there was only one color left between heaven and earth.
Here, there are only endless snow-capped mountains and never-ending wind and snow.
This is deep in the mountains, and it is much colder than the border. The footprints only stayed there for less than a minute before they were covered by snow falling from the sky, making it difficult to identify the way we came.
There is no blue sky when you look up, and there is only white snow when you look down. The distance that pedestrians can see is less than 100 meters, and anything further away is obscured by the wind and snow.
At this time, Natsu, Lucy and Happy were walking with difficulty in the snow.
"Ahem!" Lucy sneezed violently. "Really? Why do I have to do this kind of mission?"
She must be crazy, as the guild clearly forbade non-S-class wizards to accept S-class missions. But seeing Natsu and Happy's firm attitude, Lucy couldn't help but follow them.
"Why... aren't we a team?" Natsu was obviously not afraid of the cold, but he no longer wore the vest and cropped pants he had worn before. Instead, he changed into winter clothes and, of course, the dragon scale scarf that he never took off all year round.
As for Harpy, I have never seen it wearing clothes. I don’t know if it’s because of poverty or because of the cat.
But it's not that it has nothing on it. Just like Natsu who never takes off his scarf, Harpy has been carrying a small green package on his back all the time. As for what's in Harpy's small package, it's not clear. It might be a fish. After all, it's hard to imagine that Harpy would have anything else on him.
"Natsu is right, and doesn't Lucy have to save up money to buy a Celestial Key?"
"If you guys hadn't messed up my photo assignment by catching wild boars, I wouldn't have to come to this place!" Although she was wrapped in a down coat, Lucy couldn't stop shivering: "Besides... even if we were going to do an S-level mission, couldn't we choose a mission with a relatively warm environment?"
"Listen to her, Habby, she would actually say something like that!"
"That's normal. After all, she's Lucy. People like her won't understand."
"???" Lucy was confused and unconvinced.
"Bad weather, dangerous environment, seals and curses, gods and demons, adventures and treasures, these are what an S-level mission should be like!"
"Hey hey!"
Sighing, Lucy thought again about this mission: [Repel the monsters from the snowstorm].
In Ishgar, there is such a legend.
A long time ago, there was a black angel and a white angel . The two angels had great power, but they fought because of a man.
After an unknown amount of time, the two celestial maidens fought to the bitter end. In the end, the White Lady won, but the place where they fought was forever covered in snow.
As time passed, this battlefield was divided into the territory of the human country. Now, it is located in the snow-capped mountains in the north of the Kingdom of Fiore.
I don't know when people gave this battlefield a name, Lingfeng, Zonia.
"Spiritual Peak... Zonia? What is that place?"
In the Fairy Tail guild, Kira curiously asked Markrov , "Is it dangerous?"
"I heard that two goddesses once fought a decisive battle there, and their magic permanently turned the entire landscape into a snowy mountain! Even now, it still snows all year round!"
Although she had never done any dangerous missions, Leibi, who had read many books, immediately exclaimed: "Ah! I've heard of this story. It seems to be a legend about the black goddess and the white goddess fighting for a man! How romantic!"
"Levy! We are willing to fight for you too!!!" ×2
Black and White Goddess? After Levi said this, Kira finally remembered that she appeared in the Empire chapter of the original work.
Elfman yelled, "These two angels are really manly!!! The man they are fighting over is also a man!!!"
"Is it ice magic? It's amazing!" Gray thought of his master Uru and compared it secretly in his heart, "I wonder if Uru can change the terrain permanently?"
For the same story, some people think of it as magic, while others think of it as gossip.
On the side, Rocky held his girlfriends and discussed the goddesses and men: "Hehe, what kind of man can make two such powerful goddesses fall in love with him?"
"Ah~ It must be a handsome man like Rocky~"
"Well said! Hahaha!"
"A goddess of ice and snow? Natsu is a fire dragon! They don't sound like a good match!"
"Ice and Snow Goddess, is she a snow girl or something like that? I really want to meet her!"
"It should be just a title. We still have fairies in our guild!"
"Hahaha, that's true! I don't know which one is more powerful!"
Markrov held his forehead and sighed, "This Natsu always does things that make me worry! Kira, go and bring them back to me!"
"Don't just take it for granted and say something self-righteous!" Kira slammed the table, "Rocky, you are too narcissistic. A man who can be fought over by a goddess must be as good as me!"
I don't know why Kira only heard this among so many discussions...
While Rocky was touching the girl next to him, he looked at Kira with regret: "Sorry, although I admit that you are handsome, but just because you don't have a girlfriend, I won't admit you!"
"Huh?" Kira was a little unconvinced. "If you can judge a man by the number of girlfriends he has, then Gildarts should be the most handsome man in this guild."
Gildarts from the Faraway Sky: Aqiu!! Who is saying bad things about me? ?
Hmm? Kira looked in Kana's direction. Was it an illusion? She seemed to have glared at him just now.
"Besides being handsome, a man should also have great strength, profound knowledge, and a brave and fearless heart. Who else in the entire guild can be better than me! Hahahaha!!!"
Rocky retorted loudly: "No! A real man should have a handsome appearance, a gentlemanly demeanor, and a gentle and loving heart!"
Kana drunkenly said while holding the wine barrel: "Hiccup~ What are you talking about? Men should know how to drink!"
"A man should use his fists!!!" Elfman waved his fists.
"Hey, hey, a man is one who can bravely show himself!"
"Gray, that's not why you're an exhibitionist!"
"Be quiet!" Erza yelled, "Being able to make strawberry cake is the basic requirement!"
"No way!!!"×N
"Are you guys questioning what I said??"
As if they had forgotten that Natsu had secretly accepted an S-rank mission, after a heated discussion, the guild began to quarrel fiercely again.
Drinking contests, flipping tables, fighting, magic, and fistfights...
"Okay! If that's the case, then let's go and see what this man who is being fought over by the two legendary celestial ladies is like! Whoever is closer to the image described by them wins!"
Obviously, no one can resist the words "You win" in this life or in the past life! This is especially true in Fairy Tail!
"Okay! Let's make a bet! If he is the kind of person I say he is, then I win!"
"In that case, I want to go too!!"
“He must be a really good strawberry cake guy!!!”
"It's impossible no matter how you think about it!!!"
At this time, Markov was already furious: "You guys!!! Be serious!!!"
"Huh?" Kira turned around with a puzzled look on his face. "What did you just say, President?"
