Fairy Tail: I don't want to be the president

Chapter 292: Newcomer Rhodes, Final Chapter

Mira pouted. "You're not coming because you got up late? You made me wait for so long."

Rhodes looked at the lunch box Mira brought and asked shamelessly, "Is that for me?"

"no!"

"Oh."

Oh what! Mira wants to hit someone. Where is your courage to do something weird yesterday? Why don't you open the basket and take a look!

Rhode immediately felt something was wrong. He recognized the lunch box, which was a prop used to carry meals and had a magic function to keep warm.

Although it might sound a bit conceited to think so, who else could Mira bring breakfast to besides him?
Elfman?
Rhode thought for a moment and came over with the registration book:

"Is there something wrong here? Do you remember when was Natsu and Happy's last mission?"

Mira's train of thought was interrupted: "I remember it was..."

She saw a hand touch the lunch box while she was thinking.

Mira grabbed Rhodes' wrist, holding back her smile and keeping a straight face: "What are you doing?"

Rhodes remained calm and said, "I saw a hair on it. I'll help you remove it."

Mira looked at him: "Really?"

Gululu...

Rhodes, feeling betrayed by himself, looked up at the ceiling. He had consumed so much magic power yesterday and had not eaten breakfast.

Mira laughed, opened the food box and pushed it in front of Rhodes: "Eat quickly."

Omelet, ham and vegetable porridge, and some pickles.

It’s not complicated, but it feels like a lot of thought went into it. When I see these, I can almost see her busying around in her apron.

Rhodes hugged her first before sitting down to eat.

"good to eat!"

Mira sat on the side, holding her chin and watching him finish his meal. When he took the last bite of porridge, she suddenly said:

"Actually, this was made by Elfman, and he didn't wash his hands before cooking."

"Uh... cough... cough..." Rhodes was choked and couldn't stop coughing.

"I was kidding." Mira smiled and patted Rhodes' back gently.

Once you are bullied by her, you will get back at her sooner or later.

"Sister...sister?" Elfman hesitated. "I want to go out to work."

"Well, let me see."

Mira looked at the task list carefully.

Rod looked at Elfman seriously. He found that his brother-in-law's face was a little swollen: "What's wrong with your face?"

Elfman touched his face and said guiltily, "I fell accidentally."

"How could a fall like this happen?"

"Man...manly man!"

Rhodes looked at Mira. She should know, right?
"He did fall, and he accidentally hit something hard." Mira smiled, "Don't worry, I've already applied medicine to him."

"That's good." Rhodes nodded, "I'm so lucky to have such a good sister like you."

"Really?" Mira smiled as she was praised by her boyfriend.

"What a man!" Elfman also felt very lucky.

His sister even offered to help him apply medicine after training with him, and he was so moved that he wanted to cry.

Although it was a common task, Rhode still gave Elfman some instructions as usual.

"Don't worry, the man will be fully prepared!" Elfman left impatiently.

After a while, Makarov came downstairs with a stack of papers, dressed in formal clothes.

Mira asked, "President, are you going out?"

Makarov nodded. "I need to go apologize to the mayor and mail these out."

That was the self-criticism he wrote these days.

Rhodes' conscience hurt a little: "I'll go for you?"

Mira followed and said, “I’ll go too.”

"No need! You just need to look after the guild. This kind of thing is the guildmaster's responsibility."

Makarov seemed a little stressed. He was afraid that these two people would sneak off on vacation after they left.

You can even make up an excuse, for example, it's too insincere to mail the apology letter to the Council, so you have to deliver it in person. And it can't be sent to the branch in Fiore, but to the headquarters abroad.

Makarov has just had a few days of peace and quiet, and doesn't want to go back to the beginning of the month.

Rhodes swore to God that he really wanted to help and didn't mean to desert.

But he couldn't do anything if the president didn't agree: "Mira, why don't you just keep those two bottles of good wine."

Mira nodded: "Okay, I'll send him off when the president comes back."

While the two of them were out playing, in addition to bringing things for Elfman, they also bought some good wine for the president and picked some uncommon herbs for Grandma Polyusica.

It was just that when she just came back, Mira believed Rhodes's slander and controlled the president's drinking a little more strictly, and she didn't rush to give him the wine she bought.

Now... Rhodes felt guilty.

In addition, when he went to visit Grandma Polyusica, he asked her about it. She said that the president was in good health recently and his old illness had not recurred, so he could relax a little.

By the way, Grandma Polyusica expressed disdain for Rhodes's method of picking herbs, but Rhodes could see that she liked such gifts.

……

In the afternoon, Erza came to the guild to take on a mission.

I asked Mira and Rhodes to help me choose it yesterday.

Fortunately, there was a mission with a reward of 500,000, which was just enough to rent Erza's five rooms. It also didn't take too long and could be solved basically by just one fight.

"That's it." Erza was very satisfied. "By the way, Rhode, can you wait until I come back for the sparring?"

"no problem."

Anyway, Erza's mission won't take a few days, so he can take the opportunity to practice more with Mira.

……

"Receive the soul of the mountain dragon with your whole body!"

There was a flash of light on his body, and his hands and feet had turned into khaki dragon claws. A pair of wings grew behind him, and a few scales appeared on his cheeks.

Powerful magic power erupted from Rhodes, and his imposing aura was almost equal to Mira's Satanic Soul.

He opened his eyes, revealing brown dragon pupils in his eyes, and the corners of his eyes were slightly raised, revealing a fierce aura.

"Rod?" Mira called out tentatively.

Rhodes knew what she was worried about and smiled at her: "Don't worry, my will has not been affected."

Mira breathed a sigh of relief. The biggest risk of receiving magic was that a powerful target might influence the caster's will.

It's great that Rod has no such risk.

And...the smile he just gave was completely different from usual.

It's not gentle, nor sunny...

It seems that the changes in his eyes and the four canine teeth that have become noticeably sharper have given him a wilder temperament.

Mira's heart was pounding. She felt that she might understand how Rhodes felt when he saw her Satan Soul.

"Although my magic power is consumed a lot, I feel very strong, and..." Rhodes stomped his feet.

A circular stone wall rose up with a rumble, surrounding him and Mira.

It was like a smaller version of the magic used by the mountain dragon that day.

In this state, he can use earth magic!
Rhode raised his right arm that had turned into a dragon claw, stretched it over Mira's left shoulder and pressed it against the stone wall, with his forehead against Mira's forehead:

"This way, you can't escape."

Mira blushed: "Receive Satan's Soul!"

She stretched out her right hand and hooked it around Rhodes' neck, licking her lips with her tongue: "Who can't escape?"

The two smiled at each other, tacitly...

They started fighting.

Rhodes' transformation wouldn't last long, so he had to test his combat abilities.

The stone wall that had just been built was quickly broken into pieces by the two men. They punched and kicked each other, one advancing and the other retreating.

After more than twenty rounds of quick fighting, Mira flapped her wings and flew into the sky, with a purple-black sphere condensing between her hands.

Rhodes also flew up and opened his mouth to spit out a dragon breath made up of countless rocks.
