Chapter 196, Gray and Juvia’s engagement ring It’s a pity that the distance between the two parties is already quite far. By the time the demon chased him to the other side of the forest, Gray and Juvia had already lost track of them. The two sisters hesitated for a while, but decided to follow. The other side, going deeper and deeper. Gray and Juvia were a little confused. Gray said: "Why, let alone animals, there are not even mosquitoes here." “Yes.” Juvia nodded. “Wait a minute, I seem to have an impression of this situation.” Gray began to search for memories. One day a few years ago.
Gray and Natsu, Happy, and Lisanna and Kana. Several people are working on a commission together. An easy task to drive away the wild wolves. To ordinary people, wild wolves are very fierce, but to magicians, even children, the danger is not that high. They drove the wild wolves as far as possible into the forest, preventing them from returning and posing a threat to the lives of the villagers. But as they walked, the wild wolves were unwilling to move forward. Everyone was still wondering, and Natsu's expression suddenly changed. “What’s wrong, Natsu?” Gray and others were confused. "There are no animals, no mosquitoes, and even the wolves dare not move forward." Natsu suddenly turned around and ran: "Everyone, run quickly, there is a big guy ahead!" Everyone was a little confused, but Natsu was an expert in this field, so they followed his instructions and ran away. Whether Naz was correct was not verified at the time. One day later, Gray was doing other tasks nearby. Recalling this incident, he took a closer look and found that there was really a monster entrenched here. Of course, at that time, he could eliminate it without much effort. . Return to the present. Gray pulled Juvia up and ran away. Just like a few years ago, he now does not have the strength to deal with powerful monsters alone. “What’s wrong, Gray-sama?” Juvia was confused. “We have mistakenly entered the lair of a monster. Not only is there no prey here, we may also be attacked.”
It’s better to be sensible now. Juvia heard this and staggered after Gray.
There is no way, she is really a pure mage, and her physical ability is far inferior to Gray's. at this time. "Roar-" Suddenly, a shocking roar came from the right. “Why over there?” Juvia was surprised. "This is the territory of Warcraft. It's not surprising for that guy to appear anywhere." Gray said. He immediately changed direction and continued to run away. But at this moment, he heard. "ah-" dedleg. “I had good intentions to find those two humans.” “Those two humans couldn’t be saved, but we were going to be killed.” “Uuuuuuuuuah, so unlucky.” "It's the devil's voice!" Juvia recognized it. "Is she coming to us? Save us?" Juvia guessed after listening to the devil's words. "But we can't protect ourselves." After Gray finished speaking, he gritted his teeth and said, "Juvia, go back and get reinforcements, and I'll contain it." ’ As he spoke, he took off his long bow, took off an arrow, and ran towards the direction of the noise. “I” Juvia hesitated. To be honest, they have come a long way. At this time, it is up to her to find reinforcements. She gritted her teeth and chased after Gray. "Gray-sama!" Juvia shouted. "Juvia, why are you following me?" Gray said. "I'm here to help you." Juvia said, fearing that Gray would drive her away, and then analyzed: "It's such a long distance, and it's too late for me to run back. It's better to face it with Gray-sama!" “You’re such a bad guy.” Gray said no more. ‘Boom, boom, boom’ Meet each other. A huge monster more than ten meters high was chasing the demon they had just seen in the flower field. “Humans?” The devil was also stunned: “You weren’t eaten?”
"If you hadn't provoked it, I think we would have left here safely," Gray said. “We don’t want to be kind enough to remind you.” The sister in the demon said aggrievedly. “Lower your head!” Gray shouted suddenly. He opened his bow and nocked an arrow, pulled the long bow to a full circle, and then relaxed his fingers.
The arrow cut through the air and pierced the monster's knee directly. pity The wound was very shallow, and the opponent just shook his leg to shake off the arrow. Fortunately, it delayed a little bit, allowing the demon to run further. “You stupid human, shoot your eyes!” the demon shouted. "You're the fool." Gray raised his hand and shot an arrow into the eye of the monster, and the opponent responded quickly and slapped it away. Just now it was scraping, now it is invalid output. “Got it!” Gray said. Juvia nodded, she felt deeply about this. After all, she does this all the time. She doesn't even dodge attacks that are not threatening, and as a result often suffers losses. However, when there are threats, she blocks or dodges them, so she suffers less losses. ‘Boom, boom, boom’ The monster is getting closer. Gray and Juvia also turned around and ran away. However, he had a long bow in his hand, and from time to time he turned around and shot an arrow, slightly blocking the pace of the monster, making it impossible for the opponent to catch up with the two demons. But at this moment. “No, no, we can’t go any further!” the demon shouted. “Why, do you want to stop and seek death?” Gray was puzzled. “The front. The front is our home!” the devil said anxiously: “If the overlord gets there, he will destroy everything!”
As soon as the devil finished speaking, Gray stopped. Because of his fast speed, he still slipped a long way. "Gray-sama?" Juvia and the demon stopped and looked at him. Gray said: "Then you can't go this way." He looked at the demon and smiled: "Hey, demon, when this matter is resolved, just give me the most beautiful flower." The devil was stunned. Then, Gray turned around and ran in the other direction.
You must know that the speed difference between the two sides was not big, and Warcraft was even a little faster. It was Gray who kept shooting arrows that blocked the opponent's speed a little. Now Gray turned around and ran in the other direction, adding to the delay. This time, the monster was so close to him that Gray didn't even have a chance to draw an arrow! "Gray-sama!" Juvia was anxious, pulled out the thin sword on her waist, and chased after him. “Hey, human!” Seeing this, the demon shouted and chased after him. "Don't hurt my Gray-sama!" Juvia raised her sword and slashed at the monster's tail! 'when' The long sword cut into the tail, but it was stuck on the bone. "Roar-" The monster was in pain, and with a flick of its tail, Juvia flew away. Then, the monster turned around and chased after Juvia. “That idiot!” Gray cursed angrily and fired several arrows, but they were all blocked by the monster with its claws. “Hey, human, are you okay?” The demon picked up Juvia and planned to run away.
A huge mountain-like shadow enveloped them. The demon raised his head and looked at the huge monster, frightened. “Damn it!” Gray dropped his longbow, took out his broadsword, and slashed at the wound Juvia had made before. His power is much greater than Juvia's. The sword was cut off, and the tail of the monster was almost cut off by him! “Roar—” the monster roared angrily, turned around and pounced on Gray. Gray was experienced in fighting, and after finishing this slash, he had already circled from the other direction and ran to Juvia's side to join them. "Let's go!" Gray took Juvia, turned around and ran away. “Humans, what are your names?!” the demon caught up and asked. “Why are you asking this at this time?” Gray said anxiously. The monster is injured and has a furious temper. At this time, the pursuit speed is faster than before! As for Gray, carrying Juvia on his back, even if he ran without his life, it was not as easy as running alone. At this time, the distance between the two is closing extremely quickly! It can be said to be a matter of life and death!
The devil said: "We are two devils, sisters, but we were born deformed and joined together!" Obviously, one of the two demons is lively and talkative, while the other is less talkative. “I am my sister.” The devil of few words said, “My name is Luha.” “I am my sister.” said the talkative devil, “My name is Liha.” Liha said: "If you don't mind that we are weak and deformed, then make a contract with us. This is the only way now!" “My name is Gray!” “My name is Juvia!” “Listen up, Gray, Juvia, we don’t have any special requests. We just hope that you will allow us to plant flowers in the future.” Liha said. "No problem!" Juvia said, "With experts like you, I would be very happy to plant many beautiful flowers for Gray-sama and I's future home!" “Then it’s decided!” The two demons each stretched out their hands. Gray and Juvia also extended their hands. Lighted up with a white light. The demon's body disappeared. Then two white lights converged on Gray and Juvia's ring fingers. After final shaping, it is a pair of exquisite and beautiful couple rings. "Gray-sama." Juvia's face turned red with excitement. Couple rings on ring fingers! This is an engagement, this is an engagement! She is engaged to Lord Gray! “It’s actually” Gray was more concerned about the magic he had obtained, which surprised him very much. “Roar—” The monster rushed forward. "Juvia, come to your senses." Gray reminded, and then he raised his hand while pulling Juvia behind him.
Endless water gushes out from the ring. Hash over the monster's body hard, blocking its movement, but not too aggressive. “Oh my God!” Juvia screamed, she was so excited. Gray actually controls water.
And she is. Juvia stretched out her hand.
The monster was instantly frozen into ice! That's right, her magic is - ice control! But it’s not like Gray’s ice shape, where ice is created out of thin air. It is the magic of condensing water into ice. “It’s interesting.” Gray waved his hand, and the ice cube turned into water again. "Roar-" The newly unsealed Warcraft has not yet let out a complete roar. He was immediately frozen into ice by Juvia. "Gray-sama!" Juvia looked at Gray excitedly and said, "Our magic is ours" Is this fate? Is this destiny? ! "Okay." Gray patted her head and smiled: "I will assist you in the future. Now kill this guy first. Natsu must be complaining now." "Um." Juvia nodded, but then said: "We need help from Gray-sama." “Hmm.” Gray waved his hand, and the water flow gathered into a sharp cone above the monster. However, the sharp cone of water flow alone does not have much lethality, unless it is Juvia's own magic, but even so, it is not as destructive as Gray's ice magic. The current experience of magic exchange between two people is definitely not as powerful as before, and it still requires cooperation. Juvia waved her hand, and the cone of water turned into a sharp cone of ice. ∣ The ice block was unsealed, and the monster was in a state of confusion as the falling ice pick penetrated its body. As the overlord of the forest, he fell unwillingly. “Hu—” Juvia breathed out and said, “It feels so good to be able to have magic again.” As a powerful magician, he suddenly became no more powerful than an ordinary person. It was really unaccustomed to him. “Cut some meat and take it back.” Gray said. "Uh-huh."
Camp. “So hungry.” “So hungry.” "Natsu, stop arguing." Laxus frowned. ".So hungry." Natsu lowered his voice. Lucy was sitting on her knees on the ground, and Natsu was lying on her lap, holding his stomach with one hand. Just now, Lucy was chatting with the girls. Natsu was rolling on the other side. Rolling, rolling, he came over. Then, with a nonchalant look on his face, he forcibly took Lucy's knee pillow. The girls saw this, smiled, got up and left. "Tell me." Rebby pulled Kana's arm and whispered, "Natsu, do you know what you are doing?" “If his fool Lucy doesn’t say anything, he will never notice.” Kana shook her head. “I obviously feel a lot closer,” Lebby said. "Natsu is like this." Abba Green said: "He didn't think of it in his heart, but it doesn't mean that he didn't subconsciously, otherwise why wouldn't he rest his head on Erza's legs." “Woo” Erza suddenly looked sad. "Erza, what's wrong with you?" Mirajane looked at her doubtfully. "Won't Natsu take my knee pillow in the future?" Erza felt a little disappointed. She had the feeling that her younger brother was going to get married and would never act coquettishly to her older sister again. "I think he never took the initiative to find your knee pillow." Kana said speechlessly. A few girls nodded. It sounds like Natsu often takes the initiative to ask for Erza's knee pillow. obviously it is Classic scene: On the train, Erza punches Natsu down. However, since Lucy joined the guild, she seems to have really taken away this right that originally belonged to Erza. The key is that Natsu is willing to do it, rather than being knocked down with a punch. “Sniff, sniff—” Natsu suddenly sniffed. "Natsu, what are you smelling?" Lucy immediately misunderstood. After all, her huge thing was not far above Natsu's nose. However, Natsu stood up with a 'shua'.
“The food is coming!”
Everyone looked towards the forest. Gray and Juvia came over, dragging a cart made of ice. "Gray, can you use magic?!" Everyone was suddenly happy. “We all made a pact with the devil,” Gray explained. "It's a ring, it's a ring!" Juvia showed it excitedly: "Gray-sama and I are a pair!" “Gray-sama also gave me the most beautiful flower in the flower field!” Juvia showed everyone a beautiful flower she had stuck in her hair. “Congratulations, Juvia.” The girls congratulated sincerely. “Hahaha—Gray, you actually use water magic.” On the other side, after learning that Gray had water magic, Natsu immediately laughed and patted Gray on the shoulder. “Ah, yes, it’s easier to extinguish the flame with water,” Gray said. "What did you say?" Natsu was immediately dissatisfied. "ah?" "ah?" The two guys started butting heads again. (End of this chapter)
