Fairy Tail: You can become stronger by spending money.

Chapter 269 Stowaways

"To my dearest mother..."

As night fell, in the cottage that Lucy rented, Leila looked at the letters that Lucy had written to her over the years. All her daughter's experiences over the years were recorded in these letters.

As she watched, Leila's tears would flow unconsciously. Her daughter had a hard life these years, but she was also very happy.

"That's enough..."

Leila wiped her eyes and looked at Aquia beside her and said, "Thank you, Aquia, for telling me these letters."

"fine."

Aquia leaned on Leila's shoulder and said, "Um... do you really not need us anymore? Although Lucy can stand on her own, Keisha and Caprion still miss you very much."

"You said Lucy can stand on her own now. Compared to me, she needs your help more."

Leila stroked Aquia's head, and Aquia lay quietly on Leila's shoulder.

Although Lucy is fine now, she would rather stay with Leila.

Leila also knew this. She stood up, looked at Aquia and said, "Aquia, Lucy, I'm counting on you."

"Tsk, really, leave it to me, that brat is still far from you."

Aquia wiped the corners of her eyes and said to Leila seriously: "But you... must be careful."

"I will."

Leila nodded and looked at the darkening sky outside the window. Tomorrow... she would go find Jiude.

Even without her previous assets, she believed that with the help of the two of them, she would be able to make a comeback.

On the other side, Gin looked at Juvia who was busy and full of happiness, and held his chin with one hand while looking at Gray who was embarrassed. He chuckled and said, "She is a good girl. She likes a bad boy like you. You should just be happy."

"…Are you leaving?"

Gray was silent for a moment, then spoke.

"Don't make it seem like we're parting forever."

Silver smiled, rubbed Gray's head with his hand, and said, "Fairy Tail is too lively, suitable for young people like you. Speaker Makarov invited me to the Council, and I agreed. From now on, I will be your superior. Don't cause trouble for me, otherwise I will cause trouble for you."

"Nonsense, I know!"

Gray was furious, but finally sighed: "Actually, I hope you stay, Dad, and we can live together..."

"Don't be fussy."

Yin patted Gray's back vigorously and said with a smile: "Besides, I'm used to living alone. You two should live your own lives well. As a father-in-law, I don't want to interfere too much."

"But……"

"If you really want to keep me here."

Yin Xie smiled and said, "Give me a little grandson or granddaughter, and I promise not to leave and stay to take care of your children."

"Om..."

Gray's face flushed red, and Juvia, who was carrying the dishes, was now boiling, and the steam was almost fogging up the whole room.

"Juvia...Juvia can do it!"

Juvia looked at Gray shyly, waiting for Gray to say something.

Gray recovered, took several deep breaths, and said nothing more.

Silver sighed inwardly, and Juvia was also a little disappointed, and put the dishes on the table.

"Wait a few years."

Gray suddenly raised his head, looked at Yin and said, "Wait a few years, then come back."

Silver laughed and rubbed Gray's head: "Juvia is fine, you should cherish the people in front of you, okay?"

Faced with Yin's exhortation, Gray finally nodded.

And Juvia, at this moment, just felt as if she was dreaming. Was the thing she had always dreamed of settled just like that?

"Juvia, there's enough food, let's eat together."

"Ah? Oh, oh, yes, father!"

Juvia changed her words and called him as affectionately as possible. Looking at Gray, the tenderness in her eyes could not be hidden at all.

As for Rob, he had already returned to the Magic Council with Makarov.

Makarov naturally would not refuse an old friend who came to help.

Of course, Rob was also very happy to be the witness for Erza and Jellal.

……

"Cheng Feng, your cooking skills are so good. I really want to live here with you."

Lucy ate the food in big mouthfuls, leaving Timalia and Brandish speechless.

"You say this every time you come."

Cheng Feng, wearing a pink heart-shaped apron, brought the last of the soup, wiped his hands, and sat down to eat.

Lucy ignored everything else at the moment and concentrated on eating.

But she didn't know that the letter she had been hiding was found by her mother.

Moreover, it was Aqua, the person she trusted the most, who reported it.

"Lady Leila is back. Should I go visit her on behalf of my mother?"

Brandish looked at Cheng Feng, feeling a little conflicted.

"Go ahead and watch if you want to. I'm not blocking your freedom."

Cheng Feng rolled his eyes: "Just don't run too far."

"Okay, I'll go visit you tomorrow."

Brandish nodded, and at the same time she wanted to meet what kind of person this woman who was so respected by her mother was.

After eating and drinking, Cheng Feng was just about to clean up the dishes when Lucy took over the job.

After all, if you come here to eat for free, you still have to do something, otherwise what if you can't get free food next time?

Cheng Feng naturally did not refuse this. He took off his apron and handed it to Lucy. Just as he was about to relax and have a good rest, he was suddenly shocked the next moment.

Then, he said with a serious expression: "I have something to do, I'm going to be out for a while, you guys be careful."

After saying that, without even waiting for Mirajane and the others to react, Cheng Feng disappeared from the spot.

Seeing Cheng Feng disappear, a trace of sadness appeared on Milaje and the others' faces.

"What's wrong? Where did Cheng Feng go?"

Hearing the noise, Lucy poked her head out and asked curiously.

"Nothing, just a little thing."

Mirajane shook her head and said calmly.

When Lucy saw it, she nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

But she was not blind. Mirajane could control her expression, and so could Dimaria. But it was still difficult for her to control Brandish. She could see the flaw at a glance.

"Wait until Brandish goes to see her mother and find a chance to ask her. Cheng Feng has indeed been absent from the guild for a long time. Mira has been attending several meetings. There must be something wrong."

Lucy thought silently and started washing the dishes.

On the other side, Cheng Feng suddenly appeared on a mountain peak like a ghost. He looked around and realized that he had arrived at the Kiltina Continent.

But that's not what's important.

He looked up at the sky, and at that moment a bright meteor was coming towards him rapidly.

And in this meteor, he felt a familiar breath.

Those divine breaths!

Combined with the fluctuations coming from the barrier just now, it is obvious that this guy is a stowaway, a stowaway who came to this world secretly!
