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

Erza gently touched her eyelids with her fingertips, a subtle sense of guilt rising in her heart. A possibility formed in her mind, making her nose tingle slightly.

She immediately stood up straight, bowed deeply to Riyao with her eyes lowered, and said in a sincere voice, "Thank you, Senior Riyao."

Riyao's eye twitched uncontrollably twice. He quickly turned away from her overly serious posture, his tone carrying a hint of helpless teasing.

"Oh, I'm a senior again? It's nothing, don't worry about it."

Honest Man Yao: "Besides, it might not be this. I don't have the ability to foresee the future. Maybe it's for some other reason."

Makarov stroked his graying beard with his fingertips, his brow furrowed as he fell into deep thought. He suddenly remembered the bottle of "eye drops" that he had prepared long ago.

The other members of the guild whispered among themselves, their faces showing a mixture of disbelief and skepticism, since the idiocy here was always contagious.

But she still had great intelligence. Levy raised her hand and pushed up her glasses on the bridge of her nose. The lenses reflected a shimmering light, and her tone was as confident as if she had everything under control.

"According to what was just recorded, the magic of foresight should have helped that mage avoid danger, but he only lasted a day."

"The cunning frog kept touching your stomach. That mage saved his entire hometown, affecting a large number of people and having a huge impact, so the accident he encountered was even more severe."

"Sunlight unintentionally altered the future of Erza's eyes, but the impact was much smaller, so the accident was also much less serious."

Riyao immediately gave a thumbs up, his eyes shining with approval, and nodded vigorously. Then he rubbed his hands together, his eyes filled with a mischievous anticipation.

"By the way, the records don't mention the name of this curse, do they?"

Gildarts raised his hand and scratched his messy hair, tilted his head and thought for two and a half seconds before answering in a vague tone.

"I didn't see it. Maybe it was originally there, but the records are incomplete. I just filled in the gaps in my memory based on the context."

"How about calling it 'Aha Moment'?" Riyao grinned, a sly glint in his eyes.

Kana casually fiddled with the cards in her hand, rolled her eyes, and spoke with a hint of disdain.

"What kind of ridiculous naming is this? And why even bother naming it? Aren't you afraid God will give you another 'surprise'?"

Makarov looked at Riyao with a complicated expression. He knew it was definitely not "accidental." Riyao didn't want to talk about it, and he didn't intend to expose it.

While everyone was still arguing about the topic of "gods," Erza carefully took out an exquisite strawberry cake box. The moment the lid was opened, a faint aroma of cream mixed with the sweetness of strawberries wafted out.

She held the cake, her eyes filled with a hint of reluctance yet utter sincerity. Her fingers gripped the cake plate tightly, and she hesitated for a long time before finally handing it to Riyao.

"This is my gift of gratitude."

Riyao reached out and grabbed the cake plate without hesitation, his fingertips already touching the cool porcelain edge, a triumphant smile on his face.

"Then I won't stand on ceremony, let go!"

"You must treat it well." Erza pursed her lips, still holding on.

"Don't worry, it will live a happy life in my stomach." Riyao raised an eyebrow.

"I queued for half an hour to buy this limited edition!" Erza emphasized, her tone full of appreciation.

"Yes, yes, I know, I'll enjoy it." Riyao nodded vigorously.

"I haven't even had a taste myself," Erza's voice softened, tinged with a hint of aggrieved anticipation.

"After you finish eating, you must tell me in detail what it tasted like!"

(ー_ー)!!

Seeing her on the verge of tears, Riyao's lips twitched. He helplessly let go of her and sighed, feigning distress.

"Never mind, I won't eat it. My teeth have been hurting lately."

Erza's eyes instantly lit up like stars, her reluctance vanished, and she quickly put away the cake, her tone filled with barely concealed surprise.

"Really? No, no, I mean I really can't eat sweets when I have a toothache. I'll treat you to some when you're better!"

She happily hugged the cake back to her arms, and eagerly scooped out a big spoonful and stuffed it into her mouth, not even bothering to wipe the cream off her lips.

Gray and Cana turned their backs, their shoulders shrugging as they tried to suppress their laughter, their cheeks turning red and even their ears burning.

Riyao rolled his eyes in annoyance and picked up the letter of authorization on the table to read it carefully.

On the surface, he stared at the handwriting on the letter of commission, but his mind was in turmoil: There were actually other gods? The reason for triggering this curse was definitely not as simple as altering the future, otherwise Igniel and the others would have suffered this curse when they traveled from the past to X777.

If they hadn't traveled through time, Natsu and his friends would have died of old age in the past long ago, and there would have been no way they could have defeated Acnologia in the future. That would have been a huge change that affected the entire world.

I can't figure out the triggering condition at all.

Fortunately, it only lasted seven days. If it had gone on like Jelf, it would have been better to find a hole and bury myself, with the inscription "Unlucky in old age, do not disturb" on the tombstone.

That little devil goddess... probably didn't know this would happen, right? So she just randomly gave me a healing spell? Holy crap, think about it.

Oh no, I completely forgot to ask her name! Otherwise, I could have at least offered my prayers and asked for peace of mind.

Female... Ugh, Goddess, please bless me!

A little girl, nicknamed "Goddess Little Girl," suddenly slammed the thick book in her hand onto the ground with a loud "thud," startling the office worker in front of her who had just died from overwork and was still in shock, causing him to nearly slip off his chair.

"Um, female..." The office worker swallowed hard, but swallowed the words back down.

The little girl narrowed her eyes, giving her a dangerous look: "Hmm? What did you call me?" →_→

"Goddess!" The office worker quickly corrected himself, cold sweat dripping from his forehead.

Sunrise had already packed up the medical entrustment form and got up to walk out of the guild gate.

While he was down on his luck, Makarov quietly adjusted the pricing of his medical contracts.

In the past, Riyao was young and needed to take on small jobs gradually to practice. Now that he is capable enough, it would be a waste of his talent to take on those trivial jobs. So most of them were simply screened out.

However, the local residents of Magnolia still followed the original rules. Thanks to their usual tolerance, in other towns, the mere fact that Gildarts would occasionally be distracted and crash into other people's houses would be enough to give the guild a mountain of complaints.

Riyao happily returned to his lodgings to pack his luggage and take good care of the fruit trees and medicinal herbs in the garden.

After finishing all that, I headed towards Magnolia's train station, where I managed to settle the medical responsibilities for both families along the way, and I was also given a lot of snacks along the way.
