Chapter 370 Some Are Happy While Others Are Sad
Some are happy and some are sad.
Lucy was so worried that she could hardly sleep.
When she arrived at the guild the next day, Lucy cried to Mira in front of the counter about her experience.
It was obvious that they had agreed to drive people out, and then take action outside the town, or be more restrained when doing so.
But after finding the target, no one except Lucy and Happy could bear it.
Under the attack of Erza, Natsu and Gray, the magic cult could only flee wildly.
The result of escaping was that they destroyed two more streets.
"In the end, it was all in vain, and I didn't make any money at all, wuwuwu..."
"Ah la ah la..." Mira sympathized with Lucy and comforted her, "At least there is no additional compensation, right?"
"Well, because we stopped the other party from committing the crime in time and recovered a lot of property from their den, the client temporarily forgave us and only deducted the entire reward."
Rhodes said: "Look on the bright side, you have to pay half a million J for destroying three streets. You are lucky enough."
"That being said..." Lucy also felt that she was lucky to only pay half a million dollars for destroying so many things. "But what about my rent? There are only three days left!"
Lucy and her landlord agreed that rent should be paid on the 5th of every month, and today is already the 2nd.
Although I could ask the landlady to give me a few days' grace, the lady didn't seem to be easy to talk to. Lucy really didn't want to mention this kind of thing unless she had to.
Mira thought for a while and said, "I think a mission such as conquering Warcraft that is far away from human settlements is suitable for you guys."
"It feels a little sad to be said like that..." Lucy complained first, and then asked, "There is nothing we can do anyway. Is there such a mission?"
"There have been a few recently, but they are either very far away, or they are 'roving' monsters. It is difficult to find traces of them. In short, they are not the type that can be solved within a few days."
Rhodes knew a lot about this kind of mission, because it was very suitable for him and Mira to go on it.
"It doesn't matter if you can't make money, Lucy." Hubby was eating a steamed fish. "If you can't pay the rent, you can sleep with me and Natsu."
Lucy glared at him: "If you are serious about what you say, be careful and I will pull out your beard."
Natsu passed by pushing a cart and shouted: "Lucy, stop being lazy and push the stone quickly, or you will lose to Erza!"
"I'm choosing my next mission!" Lucy looked at Natsu with a ferocious expression, "And why am I pushing rocks with Erza?"
Erza pushed the car lightly and passed by, smiling at Lucy: "Do you want to compete with me? Come on, you are still far behind."
Lucy asked helplessly: "Do I look like such a motivated person?"
Gray was pushing a cart by while shirtless. Lucy looked at him, and Gray looked at Lucy, but in the end he just sighed and left.
Lucy felt even more uncomfortable: "You should tell me something!"
Juvia, who was hiding in the corner, bit her handkerchief, tears welling up in her eyes. Her love rival appeared! How could he talk to Gray-sama so naturally!
Lucy shivered and suddenly felt a little cold.
Mira looked at Gray and then at Lucy, imitating Hubby's tone: "Have a leg? (Not a standard flick of the tongue)"
Lucy rarely shouted loudly to Mira: "No!"
The fish in Habi's mouth fell on the plate, and the soup splashed on his belly: "We... our lines! Lucy is too much! Woohoo..."
Happy ran away crying and squatted in the corner of the tent.
"It's just a sentence, why are you crying? And it was obviously Miss Mira who snatched it, why should you blame me!"
Lucy put her head in her hands, feeling like she was going to collapse.
"Lucy is so interesting." Mira covered her mouth and laughed for a while. She nudged Rhodes, "Can you help Lucy choose a suitable mission?"
Rhodes nodded: "Well, for the sake of making Miss Mirajane happy with her performance, I will reluctantly help."
Why did you suddenly change your name to your full name...and also use your honorific title...and I'm not acting!
Lucy looked confused, there were so many flaws, she didn't know where to start, and she suddenly felt very tired.
Mira smiled even more happily, and while she was in a good mood, she brought a plate of steamed fish to coax Habi.
"Is there any type of mission that you particularly like? I remember that you seemed to like adventure types before."
Lucy said frustratedly: "That's true, but I've had a lot of adventures recently. Now as long as I can earn rent, I can do anything."
Terrible lines.
Rhodes flipped through the information, found one and handed it to Lucy: "Try this, there is a newly opened billiard hall that has encountered some difficulties.
Since there have been people making trouble and destroying the place since the opening day, it has been difficult to attract customers. Try to think of a way, right? "
"The billiard hall?" Lucy looked at it, "It won't be destroyed by Natsu because of cleaning up the troublemakers, right?"
"Those who cause trouble are usually little gangsters. The instigators may be competitors or regional bosses. Even if we have to fight in a billiards hall, we can smash a few billiard tables and break a few pieces of glass at most. If we don't use magic, it won't be a problem. big."
Rhodes said, "The difficult problem is how to make the other party not dare to go back after you leave, or to make the people behind the scenes stop causing trouble. Think of a solution."
"Hey~~~ Do I need to think about the strategy? It seems quite interesting." Lucy looked at the reward, 180,000 J. After dividing it, plus the money she had left, it would be enough to pay the rent.
"I'll go find Erza now!"
"Don't worry, smashing the place may also be another technical way of smashing it. You may need to study how to play billiards carefully. Remember to make full preparations before setting off."
Lucy was full of energy: "I know, I must get the reward this time!"
Rhodes checked the accounts of last month and began to check the various expenditures and the number of materials on the construction site in the past few days.
There will be a batch of wine and stones to be delivered later. Just write them down and let Mira go to hand them over later.
He looked around and it seemed that no one else came to take the task, so he said hello to Mira and joined the team of moving bricks.
The guild is his first home in this world, and he also wants to build it and move in one day earlier.
Wanting to go out and play with Mira after the guild is completed is secondary.
In the busyness, time passed day by day.
The first batch of people who went out to work have received news about the share of self-reviews earned by the president.
Fortunately, they were not big mistakes, as long as the old man sat down and wrote a little in between work at the construction site.
After completing the task, Elfman returned to the construction of the guild with full energy, but after working for a few days, he chose another task to go out.
He is really serious about saving money.
Mira did not stop him or explain. Anyway, looking at her brother's savings and the amount of the task, he must not save money as fast as she and Rod.
Give him a little surprise when the time comes.
Lucy didn't frown when she came back this time, but she was a little helpless and incomprehensible.
Because Gray and Natsu, who followed behind, each carried a billiard table, looking very happy.
There was an extra box on Erza's luggage cart, which contained two sets of billiard balls and four cues tied to them.
