Chapter 65 - Tense

The next morning, as usual, Kira and Mirajane woke up together, but soon, such a day wouldn't be the same as they would move into the same house. While many things had to be prepared, such as small renovations, they were as good as together.

Frankly, Kira had to admit that everything moved so fast, yet was it the culture of this world? 

However, he didn't have much of a complaint since it was quite lonely to be alone, and having companionship was better. 

Then again, while he was sure that they could walk into their future together, something had to be done, which was to clear up everything, whether it was Mirajane's little brother or all the women with whom he was close. 

Kira knew that after all of this, he shouldn't make the same mistake that a man had made again. 

Or would he? 

He wasn't sure, but when the two dressed in their best, ready to go out, Erza stopped them. 

"Erza, what are you?" 

While Mirajane was confused, Erza came to Kira and grabbed him tightly, "Come with me and stop Natsu and Gray!" 

"Hmm?" 2x

While Erza was in a hurry and quite impatient, it was impossible for her to treat Kira or Mirajane roughly, getting angry, or beat them up, so she could get Kira, especially when she faced Mirajane, her only rival on the Fairy Tail. 

Even though Mirajane had long retired, especially after a certain incident, she was still strong. 

More importantly, they were her comrades, so Erza tried her best to explain everything as soon as possible, despite how awkward it was. 

"...." 2x

However, Kira and Mirajane were speechless, especially when they heard what Natsu and Gray had done. 

After what had happened yesterday, especially after Mystogan had come to the guild, causing everyone to fall asleep, Natsu, who had woken up, was somehow taunted by Laxus about not being able to come to the 2nd floor. 

The only one who could come to the 2nd floor and take the quest was an S-Class mage, but as Natsu wasn't one, it was impossible for him to come. Even if the other S-Class mages wouldn't stop him, Makarov, as the guild master, would definitely stop him! 

However, as Natsu became agitated and it was impossible to stop him, he went directly to the 2nd floor, where everyone had gone home, and took one of the quests for himself. 

While it was great that Gray somehow had noticed Natsu, they hadn't come back, so Erza thought that she should go there to stop them on her own. 

Naturally, it would take a long time for her to arrive at the place where the S-Class quest was, since it was far away. 

However, Erza still remembered how Kira brought her at the fastest speed to save Makarov during the Eisenwald incident, so this time, when she thought of the need to go to Natsu and Gray, oh, Happy, too, as soon as possible, she thought of his help. 

Lastly, Kira had this unique magic that allowed him to search for people. 

Yes, Erza knew Natsu's destination and the rest, but the place was quite immense, and it definitely took a while to search. However, with Kira's help, everything would be much faster and easier. 

Or rather, she subconsciously thought of him as if... she tried to make an excuse to go after him. 

"...." 2x

Yes, Kira and Mirajane understood Erza's plight, but they planned to meet Mirajane's other sibling! 

Probably talking about their relationship, but all of a sudden, something like this happened. 

Kira didn't say anything and looked at Mirajane since he had promised her. 

Should he leave? Should he not? 

Frankly, if Erza wishes to, she should be able to go after Natsu, Gray, and Happy as soon as possible without any trouble alone. 

If there was a difference, it was that it was much faster with Kira's help. 

"Which quest is it?" Mirajane's expression was tense since, unlike a normal quest, an S-Class quest was on another level and extremely dangerous If there was a reason why Makarov didn't allow the other mages to take this S-Class quest, it was because it was too dangerous, and there was a high chance the one who took this quest would die. 

"The curse of Galuna Island." 

"Cursed of Galuna Island?!" 

Kira looked at Mirajane and asked, "Do you know that place?" 

"...I know. It's pretty close to our city, after all." 

As Mirajane said, she felt an intense headache, thinking about how idiotic Natsu, Gray, and Happy were. She, who had gained the trait of the demon from her Take Over Magic, understood what kind of danger a demon was, and this Galuna Island was a place where people would be cursed to become a demon. 

Yes, the reward of the quest might be good, but money and their lives were more important, right? 

If it were Erza or another S-Class Mage, it would be good, but if it were Natsu or those small fries? 

"...Kira, go with her for a bit." 

"Are you sure?" Kira looked at Mirajane in surprise. 

"We can go anytime, but if we let go of those stupid guys, they will really die." 

Whether it was Natsu, Gray, or Happy, they had broken the rules of the Fairy Tail, and if it was a normal member, they would be expelled directly, but as expected, as the main members of the Fairy Tail and they had been on the guild during the childhood, it was impossible to let them go die. 

"Okay, then." 

Still, Kira didn't really mind saving Natsu, Gray, and Happy since the last antagonist came; they would be the ones who saved him, but then again, could they? 

When he thought of how unreliable they were, he sighed helplessly. 

"Let's go!" 

As everyone had decided, Erza directly took off her armor and jumped into his arms, clinging as if asking to be carried in a bridal carry. 

"..." Mirajane. 

"...Erza, what are you doing?" 

Despite how calm her voice was, it contained the coldness of a demon, yet Erza didn't flinch and said, "He will be flying by using Happy's magic, and of course, this is the only way for me to be carried by him." 

"....." Mirajane. 

Still, Kira was also speechless, but then again, compared to what they had done previously, it was nothing, he thought. However, they were still in front of his girlfriend! 

"Erza, how about we change our method? If I try to use my flying magic to go to another island, I won't have any magic power to protect myself." 

"It's fine. I will protect you." 

No matter who the enemy was, Erza would slay them if they tried to hurt Kira! 

"...." Mirajane. 

"No, let's do a different method?" 

"Huh?" 2x

As they were confused, Kira brought them to the magic vehicle that he had brought, and took out several Lacrima for extra energy, like an extra battery or fuel. 

"...are we going to drive this?" Erza asked with a frown. She didn't really mind, but compared to Kira's speed by using various combinations of magics, she didn't think that it was that fast, and frankly, she wanted to be carried. 

"Wait a moment." 

Taking a deep breath, Kira put his palm on the magic vehicle and said, "Trace on!" 

As he said so, several lines formed on every part of the magic vehicle, which made him understand every detail, even to a tiny part, and as soon as he understood everything, he used his reinforcement ability as he used his Projection Magecraft to change the form of the magic vehicle. 

The two women, Mirajane and Erza, quickly widened their eyes when they saw the sleek, handsome magic vehicle that suddenly transformed with Kira's magic.

Yes, by using the Projection Magecraft to modify, changing the parts of the magic vehicle and strengthening it with his reinforcement magic, Kira had changed the carriage-like vehicle into something similar to an SUV car, similar to that of the Lamborghini Urus. 

Was it too much? 

Yes, but the "Imperial Privilege" was really that cheating skill, after all. 

"Come in." 

"Oh!" 

Erza quickly entered the magic vehicle on the passenger seat as she looked around with excited eyes. 

"Do you want to come with us too, Mira?" Kira asked. 

If it were just to protect Mirajane, Kira could do it, but Mirajane hesitated, especially when she knew that her condition couldn't allow her to leave on such a dangerous quest and instead of being his support and help, she might become a burden, especially when she knew how dangerous an S-Class quest was. "No, I will wait for you." 

"Okay, then." 

Hearing his answer, Mirajane then looked at Erza and said, "Hurry up and go back. Also, don't forget to protect him." 

"I know." Erza nodded firmly. "Leave him to me." 

"Then, we will leave now, Mira." Kira then started his magic vehicle and moved at the speed that startled everyone, but for him, driving was an easy thing, and it was impossible for him to make a mistake, especially when the "Imperial Privilege," allowed him to learn mostly anythings to the master level as long as he wished to instantly. 

So, it was impossible for him to make a mistake or be nervous, but as he felt a touch on his thigh from Erza's fingertips that lightly caressed his thigh in a playful circle, how could he remain calm?!

"Let me drive this one next time," Erza said casually, even though the speed of the magic vehicle was approaching 300 km/h. 

"...okay." 

Taking a deep breath, Kira strengthened his determination to save Natsu, Gray, and Happy!
