Chapter 534 "Romantic" Invitation
"W-what do you mean by 'having taken a liking to someone'? I just wanted to be a good host and treat you to a drink, after all, you're the president of Sabertooth guild—"
Perhaps the topic changed too quickly, and even the seasoned Gildarts couldn't help but feel a little flustered.
Before he could finish his lame excuse, the moment he met Chase's deep gaze, he immediately dropped the pretense: "Okay, that's right."
"Oh~~" Chase deliberately drew out his voice.
"It's all your fault, you brat! You're always showing off your love with Mira and Erza. Even an old man would start to want to settle down after watching that for a while!" Gildarts blushed.
"An family? It's rare to hear such words from a scumbag like you." Chase scoffed at this.
How dare a scumbag who's dated so many men on two hands compare to me?
He, Mira, and Erza have a pure love relationship, you bastard!
"Well, no matter what, Cana is still a girl, and there are times when it's inconvenient for me," Gildarts said, changing his tune again.
Upon hearing this, Chase subconsciously glanced at a scantily clad, reeking of alcohol, drunkard not far away.
Although it might be a bit impolite to say it like that, Kana probably wouldn't care about these "trivial matters," and you haven't shown any "inconvenience" behavior in the guild!
but----
From a certain perspective, Gildarts and Ultear are indeed quite a good match. Ultear's father passed away early, and Cana's mother is also long gone.
Of course, this is on the premise that Uru himself also has this idea.
As for how to verify Uru's feelings...
Thinking of this, Chase, too lazy to even bother criticizing Gildarts's lie, said seriously, "Hey old man, if you really want to pursue Miss Uru, then I can give you some advice."
"What move?" Gildarts blurted out.
Then it dawned on me: Wait a minute, why would a romantic wanderer like me need to ask this idiot who only knows card battles for advice?!
According to information obtained from Nazhabi, it was Mira Erza who first expressed her feelings to Lucy through Lisanna!
"Just honor our bet." Chase smiled and held up one finger.
"—It was my mistake to have even a sliver of hope for you." Gildarts turned to leave without the slightest hesitation.
"Ordinary tricks won't work on Miss Uru. Just look at the kind of Gray she trained."

Upon hearing Chess's words, Gildarts abruptly stopped in his tracks.
When Gray is mentioned in Fairy Tail, the first impression that comes to mind for anyone is "stripper." If you think about it carefully, it seems that this bad habit was indeed learned from Ul!
Could it be that—
Gildarts' eyes lit up, and his mind opened up instantly.
No wonder Uru ignored my eagerness and enthusiasm on the way back to the guild, even when I invited him for drinks just now. It turns out he was using the wrong approach!
"Haha, I get it! Great, Chase! If this works out, I'll have to treat you to a nice meal!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the excited Gildarts turned around and ran towards Uru, completely unaware that the cardholder standing there was grinning with a wicked smile of triumph.
Mira, who had already seen through everything, also had a smile on her face.
She stood next to Uru, tilted her head, and smiled as she offered a warning: "Miss Uru, you'd better be mentally prepared. I have a feeling Uncle Gildarts is going to say something really explosive!"
This left Uru and the others around him, including Urutia and Lucy, completely bewildered.
While he was still confused, Gildarts had already appeared in front of him in a flash.
"I'm very sorry, Miss Uru, but if you're not interested in drinking, I think I can offer a more romantic invitation instead."
Buling Buling.
Lucy wasn't sure if it was just her imagination, but she actually saw the cool special effects of the Blue Pegasus narcissists in Gildarts's deliberately lowered voice!
Even Uru, who is usually calm and collected, couldn't help but feel his heart race a little when he met that deep, filtered gaze.
They could be considered peers, and she actually had a tiny bit of affection for Gildarts, this powerful and reliable man.
Whether it was their chance encounter in the snow more than ten years ago, or his heroic rescue when the vice president of Demon Heart attacked Sabertooth, Gildarts had left a very deep impression on her.
Previously, Ultear's entire focus was on his demonic cultivation. After Ultear's accident, he devoted all his attention to his two disciples and never even considered starting a new family.
Now that she has "come back to life" and reunited with Ultear, and Gray and Lyon have both become quite excellent mages, her mindset has naturally undergone a subtle change.
Even if we take a step back and assume that she can give Urudia boundless love without reservation, "fatherly love" can never make up for it!
but----
"That idiot, he's been buzzing ever since he came back from the council, what am I supposed to say in front of Ultear?!"
While screaming wildly in his heart, Uru couldn't help but feel a strange anticipation, wanting to hear Gildarts' so-called "romantic invitation."
If it really suits your taste, it's not impossible to politely agree.
"If you have time, how about we go for a naked run together tonight?" Gildarts asked confidently.
"...
""
The moment the words left his mouth, the entire guild fell into a deathly silence.
Apart from Chase and Mira, everyone else froze in place as if they had been struck by Abba Green's petrifying eye.
Even Makarov, a seasoned womanizer, stared wide-eyed, deeply doubting whether he was truly old and could no longer hear human speech.
Uru was the first to snap out of her daze, her face instantly turning bright red: "Get the hell away from me, you son of a bitch!!!" (Charging up her energy)
'
Boom!!
The ice-shaped magic circle shattered, scattering snowflakes everywhere. Uru slammed his fist on the table and stood up, aiming a kick at Gildarts's abdomen.
"puff!!!"
Even someone as strong as Gildarts couldn't help but cough up blood after being hit so hard, and he was kicked into a suspended state in mid-air.
"Chess, you fucking bastard—"
Before Gildarts could finish speaking, the magical power of the Ten Wizard Saints was already pouring out without reservation.
He shot through the guild's ceiling like a cannonball, disappearing into the vast horizon in the blink of an eye as he transformed into a glittering speck of light.
A few seconds later.
"Wow~ Gildarts is flying so high~" Happy pointed at the human-shaped silhouette on the ceiling with glee.
"Hahaha, Uncle is as brave as ever!" Natsu laughed along.
"This idiot dad—" Kana covered her face with one hand.
"Wow! What a man! You're a true gentleman!" Elfman cheered, raising his arms.
As for why they cheered, that's actually not important.
Abba Green glared at him fiercely, feeling utterly powerless: How could I possibly like such a hopeless guy?
Lucy crossed her arms and took two steps back, her eyes filled with wariness and suspicion as she looked at Chase, who was standing alone in the corner.
He managed to ruin the guild's strongest (or second strongest?) mage with just a few words. That guy is really terrifying!
"How about it? Should we be able to confirm it now?" Mira walked over slowly.
"Isn't the result obvious?"
Chess glanced at Uru, whose ears were slightly red, and said with a smile, "Looks like we can try to match them up."
"What are you talking about?" Erza followed, blinking her beautiful eyes with a hint of confusion.
In this regard, the Fairy Queen is clearly far less perceptive than Mira, and her perspective is not comprehensive.
Chess didn't hide anything and leaned down to whisper a few words in her ear.
"What?! Miss Uwoo, yes, yes, yes, Uncle Gildarts—" Erza blushed instantly.
Just then, a slightly hesitant little figure suddenly walked towards them, or more accurately, towards Chess.
"Wendy? You want to know too? No, this is an adult conversation."
"No, no! And I'm not a child anymore!"
Wendy emphasized it very seriously, then lowered her head and cutely tapped her fingers, "It's that one, Chess, I just remembered—"
"Does your Team B also have to suffer the punishment for falling behind in the Grand Magic Games?"
Upon hearing this, Chase's smile instantly froze.
Lucy, Natsu, Gray, and Elfman from Team A suddenly looked up, their mouths agape, and their four pairs of eyes flashed with a fierce light.
That sinister and excited expression was exactly like that of a vicious wolf seeing a lamb to the slaughter!
Oh no, there's this too!
