In a cafe with a beautiful environment, the interior decoration style was simple and bright, and melodious music drifted through the air. Customers could read books or chat here, enjoying a rare leisurely time.
"I am a writer. My favorite thing is to travel to beautiful cities to find inspiration for my writing."
"Indeed, different scenery always makes one feel pleasant."
"Are you a writer too?"
"I wouldn't call myself a writer, I just occasionally write novels as a part-time job."
Lucy sat opposite a black-haired young man, the atmosphere appearing somewhat harmonious.
The black-haired youth smiled and said, "By the way, my name is Youjiu Yue. I'll give you this book. I saw you were just about to pick it up earlier."
He handed a book to Lucy and said gently and elegantly, "How about it, can you spend the day with me?"
Lucy thought for a moment. Yesterday, Natsu had said he wanted to take her to earn money for rent, but she didn't know if he had found a mission yet.
Since he hadn't come looking for her, there probably wasn't one.
Lucy smiled gently and said, "Then I'll show you around!"
Soon the two arrived at a magnificent cathedral, a beautiful garden, an amusement park, and the guild entrance.
At noon, the two came to a grassy field, chatting leisurely with constant laughter and joy.
Acnologia, Irene, Natsu, and Happy were hiding behind a tree peeping. They felt a wave of displeasure in their hearts. This four-eyed guy was trying to snatch away their heroine and was actually talking and laughing with Lucy; it was truly detestable.
The three people and one cat looked at each other, and the plan began.
Magic power surged around Acnologia and Irene. With a shake of their bodies, they transformed into a muscular tattooed man and a delinquent older sister.
The two stepped forward aggressively. Lucy and the black-haired youth Youjiu Yue, who had been talking and laughing, suddenly felt a shadow loom over them.
Acnologia had a fierce expression as he lifted the panicked Youjiu Yue with one hand: "Hey, four-eyes, nice chick you got there. Where'd you find her? Let your brothers have some fun too."
It had to be said that Acnologia's acting was truly on point. The four-eyed guy almost wet himself in fear; what on earth was that full-back tattoo?
Lucy was instantly startled. Where did these bullies come from? She shouted angrily in reprimand: "What are you doing? Let him go quickly!"
Irene, transformed into a delinquent sister, had a piece of grass in her mouth. she reached out to hook her arm around Lucy, pinched her chest, and teased: "You've got quite the figure, little sister. Come hang out with big sister, and I'll show you the charm of a real man."
Saying that, she glanced at the black-haired youth and sneered: "This kind of rookie looks boring at first glance. If you're going to play, play with something exciting."
What kind of perverted remark was this?
Lucy's face turned red as she heard this. She dodged the wandering hand and shouted in fury: "I am a Fairy Tail Mage, don't you dare try anything reckless!"
Youjiu Yue seemed to have a bit of backbone as he said angrily: "Let go of Miss Lucy! If you have a problem, take it out on me!"
"Oh?"
Acnologia raised an eyebrow: "I could tell at a glance that you're not a good person. Tell me, how do you usually hook up with women? My magic can detect lies. If you dare tell a single lie..."
"Watch out or your little bird will fly away from home!"
As he spoke, Acnologia pulled out a pair of scissors from somewhere and gestured toward his crotch, scaring Youjiu Yue into a cold sweat.
"I'm not afraid..."
Slap! Slap!!
Just as he was about to act tough for a couple of sentences, he was slapped twice by Acnologia, and his eyes cleared up considerably.
Youjiu Yue did indeed like to hook up with girls, usually maintaining a literary persona. He hadn't expected that upon arriving in a new city, before he could hook up with a girl, he would run into bullies.
He was a bit panicked. Playing the hero definitely wouldn't work, but Lucy was beautiful, and he didn't want to lose too much face.
But that bully might actually follow through... Seeing Youjiu Yue's hesitant expression, Lucy felt suspicious. What was going on? Could it be that the bully was right?
In fact, she didn't feel any malice from this male-female duo, which was why she hadn't summoned a celestial spirit to take action.
Acnologia frowned slightly: "I'll count to three..."
"Three!"
"Two!"
Youjiu Yue dared not hesitate any longer and recounted his past in full detail, leaving the three of them dumbfounded.
This guy's luck with women was incredibly abundant. He'd hit on teachers, guild masters, waitresses; he could even hook up with a middle-aged woman picking through trash just by going for a walk.
Most importantly, he never used force, relying entirely on his temperament and smooth talking, never spending a single cent on women.
Acnologia was shocked. Dammit, are you the reincarnation of a Teddy dog?
This guy could already publish a book titled 'My Life of Picking Up Girls'; there would surely be many admirers.
"This has to be fake!"
Lucy listened with a face full of collapse. What kind of person was this?
She had thought this was her child of destiny, but it turned out to be a one-in-a-million scumbag. If this were true, she might as well just bang her head against a wall and end it.
Youjiu Yue didn't care. Of course I approached you because I wanted to pick you up. Could it have been for love?
"Big brother, I've confessed everything. Can you let me go?"
Acnologia shook his head and said, "As a warrior of pure love, I'll give you a little lesson today!"
It's normal for men to like beautiful women. Most people are just thinkers, but this guy was a man of action.
He didn't care if the guy hit on others, but if this guy wanted to hit on Lucy, then it wouldn't do.
Most importantly, Irene was watching from the side. He had to draw a clear line between himself and this kind of scumbag.
Acnologia threw away the scissors; using those would be too bloody. Instead, a surge of magic power invaded Youjiu Yue's lower abdomen, directly giving him a vasectomy and ensuring he could never get hard again.
Youjiu Yue was about to scream when Acnologia instantly sealed his mouth and tossed him aside like trash.
"Scram, you eyesore of a piece of trash!"
Youjiu Yue scrambled away. He was still feeling lucky, thinking he could find a powerful Mage later who might be able to undo it.
Irene saw the kid could still run and jump and felt the punishment was too light. She decided to find someone to throw him in prison later and find a few rough men to give him a hard time.
"Don't come any closer!"
Lucy backed away in fear. Although she didn't know what the bully had done, seeing that scumbag's tearful and snotty appearance, it must have been absolutely terrifying.
Acnologia gave a wicked smile: "Now no one will disturb us. Since big brother identified a scumbag for you, shouldn't you offer yourself in return?"
"I am a Celestial..."
Lucy's expression turned cold. Just as she wanted to use magic, she felt her pocket and was instantly dumbfounded.
The celestial spirit keys were actually gone?
Irene chuckled and shook the golden keys in her hand: "Little sister, are you looking for these?"
"Give them back to me!"
Lucy shouted and lunged forward, only to be pinned to the ground by Irene in the next moment.
Irene sat on her slender waist and slapped her bottom twice: "Quite perky!"
"How hateful..."
"Let me go!"
Fear gradually grew in Lucy's heart. These two were real bullies. Although she didn't know why she couldn't feel any hostility, they certainly couldn't be good people.
With the celestial spirit keys taken away, she was completely finished.
She was already imagining being locked in a dark basement, or sold to some old man, or sold to work in a mine... Lucy suddenly broke down, wailing loudly: "I want to go home! Natsu! Save me! Waaaah!"
Irene paused for a moment and patted Lucy's small head: "She really cried?"
Was it really worth it just for two slaps on the bottom?
Acnologia was also very helpless. Was it because the two of them were too good at acting?
He winked at the two hiding behind the tree watching the show. Lucy had already called for help, why haven't you jumped out with your exclusive BGM yet.
Lucy suddenly looked up to the sky and shouted: "Natsu, save me!"
At this moment, she felt incredibly helpless and could only hope her partner could hear her voice.
"Lucy! We're here to save you!"
Natsu jumped out excitedly and charged at Acnologia with a swung fist.
"Natsu! Happy!"
Lucy had a face full of pleasant surprise. All the suppressed fear dissipated, and the sky returned to its usual cheerfulness and clarity.
At this moment, she suddenly realized how good that idiot Natsu truly was. No matter when, he could always rush to save her.
Happy flew up and kicked Irene's bottom, then took the celestial spirit keys and gave them to Lucy: "Let's fight together!"
Lucy had a look of joy: "Thank you, Happy!"
Compared to some child of destiny, partners were indeed the most important.
"Fire Dragon's Iron Fist!"
"Fire Dragon's Roar!"
Acnologia feigned great anger: "The Fire Dragon Slayer Mage, you are Fairy Tail's Natsu!"
"I will never let you bully my partner. I will protect Lucy!"
Natsu was like a god descending to earth, giving Acnologia a beating. Finally, with a magnificent burst of flame attacks, he sent Irene and Acnologia flying.
This wasn't just flying dozens or hundreds of meters; they disappeared directly into the horizon, with not even a shadow left to be seen.
Natsu also felt he was cooler than ever today, having toppled both Acnologia and Irene by himself.
Even though it was acted out, it still felt great.
He laughed happily and said: "Lucy!"
Before he could even finish his lines, Lucy pounced on him in the next moment, hugging him tightly.
