Fairy Tail: The Fourth Master - Volume 1 Chapter 68
Natsu’s eyes snapped wide open as he stood up from his seat. He glance around the room for awhile before shaking his head as sat down once again.
“Such a bad dream.”
He let out a sigh as he glanced at the window, noticing that its already dark, he once again let out a sigh.
He went out of the room and came down at the bar. There are only a few Fairy Tail members present currently, most of them already went home.
Natsu watched them, happily drinking and chatting. He looked around the guild and didn’t see Kagura and Ultear.
Natsu pondered for a moment. There is only one place where the two of them will go to without starting a fight.
Natsu said his goodbyes to the members and walked out of the guild. He then went to the woods, he walked for a good half an hour before he arrived at a certain place.
He saw a sign that says, ‘Natsu and Happy’ below it was a new sign saying, ‘Kagura, Ultear, Fiana and Hisui’, he smiled and continue to walk.
He was then immediately greeted by a medium sized house surrounded by tall grasses, and trees, it is even covered by mosses.
A smile formed on his face as he slowly walk towards the house. Even before he could even go near it, he already the voice of Ultear and Kagura.
And a mouthwatering aroma invaded his nose, with his enhance sense of smell, the aroma increased by several times.
Natsu stood in front of the door and opened it. He was immediately greeted by clean room, it is entirely different from seven years ago, where only he and Happy were living here.
But now, there are four girls maintaining the house, there isn’t a day where his home was mess.
He walked towards the kitchen and was immediately greeted by the sight of two beautiful woman wearing a s.e.xy shorts, at least five to six inches above the knees, a lose shirt, one purple while the other black, and most of all, a white apron with a heart design.
The two woman are obviously Kagura and Ultear, they were happily talking with each other while cooking, however they stopped and turned their gaze towards him.
“Welcome home, dear.”
“Welcome home, dear.”
Natsu just gave a wry smile, its been a year since they started calling him that when they’re at home, and even now he’s still isn’t used to being called that way.
Not like he hates it though.
“I’m home.”
Natsu sat at the chair with a wide-round table as he continue to stare at the back of Ultear and Kagura with a smile.
‘I really think that I don’t deserve you all, seriously, what did you even see in me to agree to have this kind of relationship?’
However, no matter what’s said and done, the four of them already agreed, and there is nothing that he, and the entire world can do to change that, besides he can’t bear to see any of them get hurt.
Kagura then put down the plates and utensils and took off her apron as she sat at the side, Ultear placed the dishes.
“These are?” Natsu glance at the three dishes in front of him, he gulped, as he almost drool looking at them.
Ultear smiled as she took off her apron and began to introduce the dishes one-by-one.
“This is the ‘Honey-Glazed Baby Back Ribs with Whiskey Marinade’ the ribs belongs to a baby B-class magic beast, the Nature Boar. Kagura made this.”
“This one is called ‘Braised Pork with Cherry Gravy’ the pork also belongs to the nature boar while the cherry was imported from Pergrande Kingdom. I made this.”
“And the last one is called ‘Herb-Roasted Pork Subs with Garlicky Spinach’ the ingredients are mostly the same as the other two, I also made this.”
Natsu was already drooling at this point, earning him a pinch to his side, courtesy of Kagura. He took a napkin and wiped the drool at the corner of his mouth as he returned to his calm and collected persona.
When Ultear was about to sit down, she suddenly remembered something as she left the room with an excited face, after awhile, she returned, but with a bottle of wine on her hands.
“Kagura, go get some glass.” she ordered and Kagura stood up from her seat and took three wine glasses.
Ultear put the bottle of wine on the table as she glance at the curious look of Natsu and Kagura.
“Fufu~ do you know what this is?”
“A wine?” Natsu answered with a raised eyebrow, he glance at Ultear with a look that says ‘Isn’t it obvious? Why do you have to ask?’
“Ahem!” Ultear was a bit embarrassed by the look Natsu is giving her, “What I mean is, what type of wine is this?”
“I don’t know.”
“Neither do I.”
Ultear looked smug hearing their responses, she looked forward to the faces of the two when they knew the value of the wine she just took out.
“This is the ‘Screeching Phoenix Cabernet’ a bottle of this costs me 500 thousand jewels! Ordinary people wouldn’t even be able to buy it even if they have money, good thing Hisui has a lot of connections.”
“Ohh~?”
“So can we eat now? Also that wine smells really good.”
Ultear looks at their lack of reactions and couldn’t help but cursed in her mind. Where’s the shock? Where’s the amazement? Where’s the reaction she was expecting at?!
“Y-You two…” She was speechless, she didn’t expect the two of them to act like these, “Didn’t you hear what I have just said?! This is the ‘Screeching Phoenix Cabernet’ you know?! There’s only 99 bottles of it! 54 had already been drank! There’s only 45 bottles left!”
“That’s amazing,” Kagura said enthusiastically, however she still remained stoic, making it harder to tell whether she mean it or not.
Natsu just grinned, he didn’t understand a lot of what Ultear is talking, after all he is much more interested in drinking than knowing what he drinks more.
He glance at the dejected look of Ultear and couldn’t help but snicker. He then caress her cheeks with his thumb as Ultear just look at him.
He smiled and said, “Let’s just eat, we really don’t have that much of an interest in wine.”
“….fine.”
