Fairy Tail: This Healing Mage's hits hurt so much!

After a few minutes of meticulous cleaning, Riyao relaxed and couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

The breath, carrying the rich aroma of freshly eaten garlic, wafted straight towards Erza's face.

Erza's face instantly tensed, her lips pressed into a straight line, and she held her breath, afraid to breathe too loudly; even the tip of her nose wrinkled slightly.

(´～`)

Riyao himself could smell it, and far from being embarrassed, he scratched the back of his head and laughed heartily.

"Ugh, I rushed back this morning and had a bowl of bone broth noodles, along with two cloves of pickled garlic from the saucepan. It was so delicious, haha."

Then he reached out and straightened Erza's head, taking the opportunity to pinch it a couple of times. Before the Fairy Queen rose to power, he had to bully her a bit.

"Alright, keep your neck straight and hold this position. I'm going to pour the regeneration aid."

After giving Erza his instructions, he turned and shouted at the top of his lungs at the door.

"Old man! Don't let those reckless fools barge in and ruin my plans for the next half hour!"

Makarov's lazy reply came from outside the door, mixed with the old man's slow yawn.

"Alright, alright, I'll just grab a stool and stand guard at the door. Anyone who tries to break in, I'll knock them on the head. You can go ahead and treat them!"

Riyao then took out a tube of emerald green potion from his magical space. The bottle was made like a large eye dropper, and there were still his handwritten words on the label.

He unscrewed the cap, carefully aimed it at Erza's eye socket, and poured the cool potion little by little along the bone wall. In no time, the entire eye socket was filled, and he held Erza's head steadily without daring to move.

"It's a little itchy... Is this normal?" Erza couldn't help but flutter her eyelashes and asked softly.

"Okay, don't move it. If you spill it, you'll have to make it all over again, which is a hassle."

As soon as he finished speaking, a faint fluorescent green halo appeared in Riyao's palm, and a warm life force seeped into Erza's eyes from his palm. While his hands were busy, his mouth was also busy, laughing and teasing her.

"Hey Erza, how about I get you heterochromatic eyes? Crimson in your left eye and turquoise in your right. You'll definitely turn heads wherever you go, and they'll look way better than your original colors. Seriously, don't you want to consider it?"

"Senior Riyou, there's no need to trouble yourself... The original color is fine."

Erza quickly refused.

"Really not considering it? It looks amazing, all the girls in the guild will be so envious of you."

"don't want."

Erza pursed her lips, her tone resolute.

"Okay, okay."

Riyao clicked his tongue twice and then came up with another crooked idea, speaking in a tone like a street vendor.

"How about we change to a special function? Do you want a precognitive eye that can see into the future, or a mind-reading eye that can read people's minds? The function is up to you."

"Huh? You can add this kind of ability? Is it really possible?"

Erza took the bait and couldn't resist asking questions out of curiosity.

"No way! Hahaha, just kidding!"

Riyao laughed so hard his shoulders were shaking.

Erza was instantly speechless, overcome with drowsiness, and her voice was weak and tinged with helplessness.

"Sunrise-senpai... you really have... such a twisted sense of humor..."

"Feeling sleepy is normal. The medicine contains sedative ingredients. Just close your eyes and sleep for a while. You'll feel better when you wake up."

Riyao stopped laughing, softened his tone, and patted his chest to assure her.

"Don't worry, I'm a proper gentleman, I would never take advantage of you."

Erza had only known him for half an hour, but she had already figured him out. Although he was a smooth talker and liked to tease people, he was not a bad person at heart. So she put her mind at ease and obediently closed her eyes.

Just two seconds after she closed her eyes, Erza heard a sinister chuckle from Sunrise, which startled her so much that she immediately opened them again.

Riyao coughed in a mocking manner, then gently placed his hand on her eyelids and closed her eyes manually.

He then completely abandoned his playful demeanor, unleashing the healing magic to its fullest potential. The green light in his palm surged instantly, and a rich, lustrous cyan mist slowly spread out.

The entire reception room's tables, chairs, and decorations were painted a gentle turquoise, and the room was filled with a fresh, budding fragrance.

After 81 minutes, using simple ingredients and the most basic methods, a fragrant braised beef noodle soup is ready.

Riyao sat comfortably at the bar, holding a huge bowl bigger than his face, with his legs crossed. He picked up a noodle and started slurping it up with relish, making a series of "slurp slurp" sounds that made the people around him swallow hard.

Makarov, who had been waiting outside and was starving, quickly brought over a bowl of noodles and slurped them down with him. After finishing a large piece of beef, he wiped his mouth and tilted his head towards the reception room.

"That girl has been sleeping for almost an hour and a half and hasn't stirred yet? How long will it take for her to wake up?"

After slurping up a mouthful of noodles smeared with broth, Riyao took a sip of hot soup before casually lifting his eyelids.

"You'll wake up naturally when you're ready to sleep."

Makarov, furious, puffed out his beard, banged his chopsticks against the rim of his bowl, and laughed as he scolded, "You brat, what you said is as good as nothing at all! What is this if not nonsense!"

"Oh dear, how am I supposed to know how long she'll sleep? Erza hasn't had a good night's sleep in ages, so I might as well go all out and get her a good night's rest."

Upon hearing this, Makarov's smile faded slightly. He took a sip of his old wine, sighed, and softened his tone.

"You're right, this child has suffered enough since he was little. It's good that he can finally get a good night's sleep."

No sooner had the two finished speaking than they heard a sudden uproar on the other side of the guild. Magic flew everywhere, and all sorts of cups, plates, bowls, and chopsticks were thrown into the air and rained down on them.

Hahahaha

Riyao turned his head and glanced at Makarov.

"Old man, could you please stop laughing so creepily? It's really unsettling."

"What? I wasn't laughing."

Riyao stopped arguing and was about to slurp up the last bite of noodles when, before he could dodge, an empty glass smashed solidly into the back of his head.

The force was so great that it shoved half of his face into the bowl of noodles, smearing his face with noodles and hot soup.

The next second he suddenly raised his head, his forehead covered in oily soup dripping with soup. His previously lazy eyes instantly became sharp like a drawn sword, and his entire aura changed. The hunt had begun.

(#` Pan´)

He ripped the noodles stuck to the tip of his nose, rolled up his sleeves, and gritted his teeth.

"Fine! Fine! If I don't hang you all on the guild's exterior wall as decorations today, I'll write my name, Sunrise, backwards!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than he jumped up with a shout and rushed into the chaotic crowd, instantly getting tangled up with the two instigators.

The shouts and laughter of fighting and killing suddenly lifted the roof off, amplifying the unique liveliness of Fairy Tail even more.

Makarov slurped up the last mouthful of noodles, sighed, and looked at the frolicking crowd, preparing to suppress them if they threatened guild property.
