If you are lucky, you can arrive in the evening, but today is obviously a case of bad luck.

There were strong winds and waves on this route, and we did not arrive at the port until the next morning.

When they went to the Cat's Lodge again, Naz refused to ride in the carriage, so Rhodes had to transfer one of the river crabs responsible for exploring the path back and let Naz ride on it.

After passing through the rugged path they walked last time, the group finally arrived at Hiruwelin, where the cat's lodge is located.

Erza dragged her luggage cart and looked at it for a while: "It looks like a very peaceful little village."

Habi was very happy: "Love! Is this Xia Lulu's village?"

"Finally no need to take transportation!" Natsu said happily.

Rhodes didn't have the heart to tell him, and he would continue riding in the car after picking up Wendy.

Rhodes was a familiar face in this village. After asking the villagers, he took everyone directly to Wendy's house.

When they arrived, Wendy was drawing a magic circle in the yard with a wooden stick.

But after she finished drawing, the magic circle didn't work, and Wendy was a little frustrated.

Xia Lulu held a thick magic book and helped Wendy check it.

"Wendy!" Rod shouted.

"Xia Lulu!" Habi shouted.

Wendy turned around, and after a brief moment of astonishment, she showed an expression of surprise: "Mr. Rhodes!"

Xia Lulu said in surprise: "Is it you? And the male cat?"

Before Rhodes could enter the door, Wendy ran over by herself, but fell to the ground as soon as she took two steps.

A standard flat fall.

It hurt to look at it, so Rhodes made a mental note to be ready to help Wendy whenever he saw her in the future.

Falling down could not dampen Wendy's joy. She greeted happily: "Mr. Rhodes, Mr. Natsu, Happy, and...are you Miss Erza?"

Erza smiled: "Hello."

"Xia Lulu, look, it's Miss Erza herself."

Xia Lulu said indifferently: "I know, didn't I see her in Fairy Tail last time?"

"Xia Lulu, do you want to eat fish?" Habi opened the little green bag he had been carrying, "We just caught it this morning."

"I've already eaten." Xia Lulu didn't want to pay attention to him, "Anyway, let's sit inside first."

Xia Lulu was very concerned about the etiquette of entertaining guests, as if she didn't want to be looked down upon by Fairy Tail.

Why did Rhode care about this? He asked Wendy, "How are you doing recently?"

"Well, the village is as quiet as before." Wendy felt that everything was fine and she had always been happy in the guild. "But the secret of dragon slaying is very difficult to learn, and there has been little progress recently."

"The Secret of Dragon Slayer? Natsu, did you want to hit me with that move last time? Please teach it to Wendy."

"Are you stupid? Mine is the dragon-slaying magic of fire, and Wendy's dragon-slaying magic of the sky. How can it be the same?"

Being called a fool by a fool...

Rhodes didn't argue with him: "They are all dragon-slaying magic, so there should be some similarities, right? At least introduce some learning experience?"

"Experience? My dragon-slaying secret was taught to me by Igneel. As long as this, this, and that...that's it." Natsu waved his fist a few times and said something unclear.

Wendy smiled awkwardly: "It's completely different."

In fact, I don't understand it at all.

Xia Lulu poured tea for everyone.

Hubby held the tea cup and was reluctant to drink it.

After Wendy and Rhodes asked each other how they were doing and chatted for a while, Xia Lulu said, "So, what's going on this time? You have a mission nearby, so you're here to stay overnight?"

She looked at this group of people as if they were traveling.

Rhodes said: "This time I am not staying overnight, I have a task and I want to ask Wendy for help."

Rod showed Wendy the order form and asked her to understand Liz's situation.

"Because it's a disease that many doctors can't treat, so I want to ask Wendy to have a look." Wendy obviously sympathized with Liz's experience and immediately said: "I want to go."

Erza said: "Don't make a decision in a hurry, this mission is risky.

The best-case scenario is that the child has a strange disease. The worse-case scenario may be a curse, and the worst-case scenario involves demons, so you must think carefully."

Rhodes nodded: "That's right, think about it carefully before making any decision. It's best to seek the opinion of President Robin Lu."

Persuasion is nothing but persuasion, and the reality of the task and possible dangers must be clearly explained in advance.

Wendy showed a scared expression. She didn't think about it carefully just now. The Black Magic Order and the devil sounded very scary.

Xia Lulu was the first to object: "No, you are not allowed to go on such a dangerous mission!"

"Xia Lulu..." Wendy really wanted to help.

"Wendy is not good at fighting. It would be too dangerous if she encounters a demon!"

Natsu murmured: "It doesn't matter! Just watch the demons and the like and I'll knock them all away!"

Rhodes said seriously: "If we really encounter a demon, I can take Wendy away as soon as possible."

Erza nodded: "We will do our best to ensure Wendy's safety."

"Please wait a moment, I'll ask the president for his opinion!" Wendy trotted away.

"Wendy!" Xia Lulu was a little angry and said she wanted to ask the president, but Wendy obviously agreed.

…

When leaving the Cat's Lodge, Wendy and Xia Lulu were added to the team.

Everyone got on the long-distance carriage heading to Poppy Town. Natsu and Erza sat on one side, and Rhodes and Wendy sat on the other side.

Xia Lulu was on Wendy's lap, and Habi was on Rod's lap and wanted to lean over.

Wendy whispered: "Xia Lulu doesn't need to come with me."

Xia Lulu said unhappily: "How could I trust you to go to such a far place alone?"

Wendy smiled at her tenderly.

Habi coyly said: "Xia Lulu~"

Xia Lulu moved towards Wendy: "Don't get so close, male cat."

"Xia Lulu, be polite." Wendy advised, and then looked at Natsu doubtfully, "Is Mr. Natsu feeling unwell?"

"It's just motion sickness." Rhodes couldn't understand Naz.

As soon as he mentioned that he might have to fight a powerful demon, he was so excited that he forgot about his motion sickness and happily got into the carriage. As a result, he was an energetic young man, and the carriage turned into a puddle as soon as it moved.

"If you get motion sickness, it may be a problem with your sense of balance." Wendy thought for a moment, then stretched out her hand towards Natsu, her palm glowing slightly, "Troia."

"Uh...huh?" Natsu, who had been so sick from motion sickness just now, suddenly felt less uncomfortable.

He sat up straight in disbelief, his expression gradually becoming excited: "Oh~~What is this?"

Rhodes was surprised: "You can even cure motion sickness?"

Wendy showed a happy smile: "Troia is a magic that helps to adjust the sense of balance. Although I am not good at fighting, I know a lot of support magic."

Erza praised: "It's really amazing."

Wendy was a little embarrassed to be praised.

"Ahaha! That's great, the transportation is really good!" Natsu stood up and sat down again in excitement, like a husky being put in the snow.

If the space were not limited, maybe we could do a handstand on the spot.

Natsu even stuck his head out of the car window: "The scenery is so beautiful! Hey, uncle driver, please drive faster!"

"Ahahaha... the transportation is great!"

Winter has not yet passed, and there is a beautiful scenery with ghosts. Rhodes feels a little disgusted with this two-parter:

"Wendy, why don't you remove the magic? It's too noisy."
