"H-How was it?"
When Kira finished reading the book, Lucy quickly asked, but he only gave the book and glasses to her and said, "Read it yourselves."
"Okay!"
Spoiling is the greatest crime that one can commit against another book lover, so Kira didn't say anything and only gave the book to Lucy, who wanted to read it as soon as possible.
Watching her crouching down, ignoring how her plump thighs appeared delicious and soft as she read the book, Kira sighed helplessly as he thought what to do to improve himself as he would be staying in this town for a while.
If he did nothing, it would be wrong somehow, so he looked at Virgo, who also met his gaze.
"Do you want to punish me, Kira-sama?"
Instead of being afraid, Virgo appeared to be excited.
"..."
While Kira was speechless, he thought about the Celestial Spirit Magic, which was mastered by Lucy and everyone from her ancestor.
This magic might be simple, which was to summon the Celestial Spirit to fight alongside them.
While the power of the Celestial Spirit wasn't bad, Kira couldn't say that they were the strongest, and while Lucy had said that the user usually relied on the trust between the mage and the Celestial Spirit, he knew well that a quite good amount of magic power and talent were necessary.
The magic power was obvious since when a mage had a gigantic amount of magic power, even if their magic was simple, such as a fireball, water ball, or just a wind blowing, they would become destructive when they were injected with a large amount of magic power.
In the case of the Celestial Spirit, while they had their own energy, stamina, and even a magic power, if their partner, which was the Celestial Spirit magic user, had an incredible amount of magic power, naturally, they could make their Celestial Spirit stronger.
In the case of Virgo, when she was supported with a large amount of magic power, the hole that she created might even reach tens of kilometers, becoming so destructive that it could destroy a city just by creating a hole on the earth.
While Kira thought so, he also knew that his magic power had limited Virgo's power, but fortunately, the magic power wasn't something that was impossible to increase in this world. Instead, if he trained, he could increase the amount of his magic power, along with the potential, which had increased due to all the servants that he had gained.
Still, training would take a long time, and to become so powerful, several years or even a decade was needed.
The "Imperial Privilege" might have helped him to learn all abilities, skills, and magics instantly to the top mastery, but it didn't increase his magic power or his physical ability.
To increase his magic power and physical ability, he had to train manually or fight a battle so that his potential would explode.
While Kira didn't like the latter method, he knew that it was the fastest way, and that was also the reason why the protagonists often met many troubles, or else, they wouldn't grow up no matter how long it was.
No, it was because they met trouble that they became strong!
So, to become strong, he had to embrace trouble.
"....."
Still, the improvement of his magic power and physical ability aside, Kira knew that he should try to master the Celestial Spirit magic further.
So, what else could this magic do besides using the Celestial Spirit to fight alongside them?
If Kira had to say, he could help Virgo improve her mastery of magic, as he had many ideas about what to do with it.
In other words, he would become a trainer, and Virgo was his Pokemon.
Still, if he made such a comparison, then would a Celestial Spirit be able to evolve?
Yet, if Virgo evolved, then what would she become?
Super Virgo?
Wouldn't her masochistic tendencies worsen?
"...."
'Next.'
Apart from evolving and training together to improve her mastery over her magic, Kira also knew about a combination.
While Virgo might appear similar to a human, she wasn't one; instead, she was a spirit, and it was possible for her to lend her power to him, becoming his armor, weapon, or even combined together.
'But...'
If that happened, would he also have to wear a maid outfit with two chains on his wrists?
"..."
Somehow, Kira didn't want that.
Still, as he was in the middle of his thought to improve the Celestial Spirit Magic, Lucy, who had finished her reading, wiped the tears, then looked at the book with a gentle smile since unlike what Duke Everlue said before, which told them the book was just a boring, cliche adventurer story; instead it was the last masterpiece of Zekua Melon, who wrote this book for his dear son, the family that he loved so much that he would bear himself to be jailed by Duke Everlue for three years.
"Kira, what will you do with this book?"
If Kira wanted to keep it, then Lucy wouldn't say much since he was the one who took it from Duke Everlue.
Still, at the same time, Lucy wondered why Kira wanted this book from Duke Everlue before since, as Duke Everlue before, this book was a boring, cliche novel, so did Kira understand this fact before?
"For you."
"..."
Lucy was in a daze, then startled. "Eh?!" She couldn't hide her surprise and quickly went to him. "What do you mean that you gave it to me?!"
"You like that book, right?"
"W-Well, I do."
Of course, Lucy loved this book very much!
"I am not a book lover, and I don't think that I can appreciate the value of that book, so I give that book to you, and you can do whatever you want with it."
Watching his gentle smile, Lucy fell into silence, then, showing a cunning smile, asked, "Then, if I give this book to Kaby Melon, our client before, who is the son of Zekua Melon, is that okay?"
"That book is yours now; you can do whatever you want with it."
His answer was the same, and he appeared calm; only Lucy pulled his cheek happily, "You tsundere!"
"..." Kira.
Why did he take this book from Everlue from the beginning and then give it to Lucy?
Wasn't this because he just wanted to return the book to Kaby Melon, the son of Zekua Melon, who was their previous client?
Despite how Kira said that he hated Kaby Melon, he decided to help him in his own way, which appeared quite awkward.
So, did Kira really want to help Kaby?
"Don't misunderstand. I just happened to take that book and gave it to you."
"Yes, yes~!"
Still, Lucy didn't listen and only showed a gentle smile on her face as she rubbed his hair tenderly.
"....." Kira.
Kira wanted to kick this silly girl's big buttocks somehow.
"Kira-sama."
"Yes, Virgo?"
"You are cute."
"...you two, do you want to be punished?"
"Ah, yes, please!"
"Ah, um..."
Facing two masochists, instead of thinking of punishment as a torture, would be their greatest reward.
Yet, despite his headache, Kira knew that this trip was a great success, and he was able to open a gacha and fill the gauge of his gacha, too. He even got Virgo, and along with quite a good amount of wealth as not only did he get cash from exposing the crimes of Everlue, but he also gained a reputation, and even the vineyard and many other things that was owned by Everlue was given to him; as those who profited from Kira's act didn't forget about him nor did they want to become his enemies.
Rather, they wanted to become his friends, so they gave him a lot of rewards.
Money could be gained at any moment, but an authority was forever since, after this, they could gain a stable income from the tax of the residents of this town.
Due to this, they wanted Kira to work on this area more, and they even gave him a list of corrupt politicians, businessmen, and many others so he could help them expose their crimes.
Still, Kira decided to refuse since he was a bit tired, and compared to money and authority, he was more into power since in this world, whether it was money or authority, it wasn't permanent, and people would lose if they didn't have the ability to protect themselves.
Only power could give him peace of mind, so his focus should be on getting stronger, but before that, let's spend a few days in this town to enjoy his new vineyard and the rewards that he gained with Lucy and Virgo.
Meanwhile, on the Fairy Tail, everyone knew about the news of Kira and Lucy, who could expose the crimes of the Duke Everlue and became a hero. Naturally, everyone felt happy since the reputation of Fairy Tail increased and became better due to the two of them, and the number of quests that were given to the guild also increased.
"Hahaha! Those two are good!"
Makarov was so happy that he was even crying since it was the first time someone from the Fairy Tail was able to finish a job so cleanly without causing destruction!
"I am so glad! I am so glad!"
When Makarov thought about the meeting of the guild heads that would be held soon, his chest became high and happy that he could show off in front of everyone later!
"....." Everyone.
Still, while everyone felt awkward as they knew that they often messed around, they also felt happy since the Fairy Tail became better due to Kira.
However, while everyone was happy, one person appeared gloomy, especially when she saw how close Kira and Lucy were in the newspaper, and they were even touted as a pair, a group.
Naturally, due to how gloomy this person was, everyone tried to avoid her, or else they would be beaten!
After all, Natsu and many others were beaten so hard!
"Please come back, Kira!"
Just as they thought, the door of the Fairy Tail headquarters opened, and the person they had been waiting for had returned.
"We have returned."
The person who had been waiting for him quickly came to the entrance to welcome him!
"Welcome—"
Her voice stopped since not only Lucy, but on Kira's side, another beautiful girl also stood by his side.
