Chapter 58. Holiday.
The next day, Eros left Eru. As much as he was sad to part with Ultear and the library of Era, he still had business in Magnolia and when he was able to complete everything, he would quietly go on vacation called "Library of Era."
***
Eros, arrived back just in time, because today Rick is marrying Lily and he could not miss such a holiday. The Titan also invited Ultear with him, but she, because of the affairs in the council, could not leave Eru in any way, and she herself did not want to go too much, because the sorceress did not know these two at all. Therefore, Eros did not force her.
As soon as he entered the guild, he saw a lot of people bustling about in festive costumes decorating the hall and the table that stood in the middle of the room, on the other side stood a nervous Rick, fiddling with the hem of his jacket.
- Enough to be nervous already! - with a grin on his lips, he slapped him on the back.
- Eros! I thought you weren't coming! - he got angry at the beginning, but when he saw the titan, he was delighted.
- How could I not come?
- And then, really, how? - Eros with a grin on his lips, pushed back his cloak.
- WHAT?!
- Don't shout like that, you'd better congratulate me.
He smiled nervously.
- Although I expected that you would soon become God's Chosen One, I did not think that so soon!
- What did you doubt me? - "offended" asked Eros.
- Don't joke, how could I doubt you?
- Okay, I'll believe it today, - the titan took out a sheet of paper with a seal and handed it to Rik.
He, taking the sheets and quickly ran his eyes over it, smiled broadly.
- Now should I call you a master?
- Somewhere I already heard it ... But that continuation with you I definitely do not need.
- What are you talking about?
- Forget, I'm talking about mine, - with a wave of his hand, said Eros, - If you want, you can call the master, deputy head of the guild, - both looked at each other and laughed.
- So where is Lily?
- We'll meet her at Kardia Cathedral in three hours, and the festive table will be at the guild.
- Well, then I also need to prepare ... - Eros said mysteriously and quickly left the guild, under the surprised look of Rick.
Four hours later.
The official part ended ten minutes ago and everyone went back to the guild.
- I thought he would come to our wedding ... - Lily said sadly, putting her head on Rick's shoulder.
" Where is he wearing it! He said that he was ready to leave, but he never came! " - sighing, he hugged the girl, - Come on, you know Eros, I'm sure he will be there any minute.
- Uh-huh ...
When the carriage approached the guild, it suddenly stopped ten meters from it.
- Something happened? - Rick asked the coachman that he was looking up in surprise, and the eyes of the other guests were also directed there.
He looked at everyone from the window with incomprehension and, leaving the carriage with Lily, they froze. On the roof of the guild stood a grinning Eros holding a white pipe in his hand. And as soon as they drew attention to him, a red projectile fired from it, which exploded in the sky ten seconds later, illuminating the entire guild and the next few buildings with a red glow.
As soon as the first fireworks exploded, several hundred more flew into the sky from all sides of Magnolia and the whole sky above the city was clouded with a multi-colored glow, which added up into many different words with wishes.
- Sorry for being late, I really wanted to come to the temple of Kardia, but I was slightly delayed in organizing all this, - Eros said with a guilty smile, walking up to the couple, - And I want to congratulate you on this wonderful day and I want to wish you happiness, love and prosperity , and also so that you always know that, no matter what happens, you can always turn to me for help, although I hope that you will never need it, and I also want to give you a gift, nevertheless I think that living in a guild for a couple is not a good idea, but a separate nest will be just right.
- Eros ... - the titan took out of his pocket and took Rick's hand, opened his palm and put a couple of keys there, - You're kidding, aren't you ...? The guy whispered in disbelief.
- What kind of jokes? - with a wide smile, he pointed to the neighboring building, - Now it is yours, do what you want with it, but consider, - his face became very serious when Eros looked at the couple in front of him, - I hope that in a couple of years I will become an uncle , got it?
They nodded inhibited, but as soon as they understood the titan's words, both flushed sharply.
- Eros!
- I don't know anything, you have already agreed! - he went behind them and pushed them towards the guild, - And now celebrate! That I would not see anyone sober, this does not apply to children!
***
The next day, a pensive Eros was sitting at the bar, staring at the ceiling, thinking about something. The rays of the bright sun fell into his gloomy face ...
"How did it happen?" - looking into the hole in the ceiling, as well as a couple of troika in the walls, and looking at the huge number of bodies lying on the floor "showing no signs of life", broken tables and chairs, rubbish and other sundries, he had a headache. Next to him was Roni, who had the same expression on his face as Eros.
Fast forward ten hours, Eros remembered how it all began in a civilized way, everyone drank, ate, danced, and then Fairy Tail came. An hour passed and there were no changes, everyone was still having fun and after half an hour anarchy began in the literal sense of the word and all because of one stupid statement in the direction of pistachios, and the neighbor thought that it was about him and sent him ...
- But still it turned out well, everyone had fun, - Roni said with a slight smile, placing a cup of coffee in front of Eros.
- Yeah ... But now the guild needs to be repaired ... By the way! - He narrowed his eyes and looked at the man in front of him, - Where have you been all the time?
- In the kitchen I was busy with dishes, and when the fight broke out I went home.
- Oh, you sly bastard!
- And what did you think, I'm a former dark magician, cunning is in my blood!
- Yes, you go and you better bring something to chew.
- Okay, wait five minutes.
As soon as he left, the doors of the guild opened and a young couple entered the hall, who froze at the threshold with shock, examining the hall and seeing the lone figure of a titan slowly approached him stepping over the lying bodies.
- Eros ... What happened? Lily asked in shock.
- Sit down already, - waving your hand to the counter, two more whole chairs flew up, - Well, how soon will I become an uncle?
- EROS!
- Okay… I'm silent.
At that moment, Roni came up to them with four plates of omelet and put them in front of each.
- It's been a long time since the four of us gathered together, - Eros said with a soft smile, - Still, your culinary talent, something with something, - Roni just waving his hand and putting three more cups of coffee sat down next to him.
- So how did this happen?
- Oh, do not ask, that was the most idiotic reason for starting a fight, and what a wedding without a fight?
- My head ... - next to the four there was another chair, for which Makarov sat, holding his head.
- Good morning master.
- What a" master "I am for you," the old man said with a twisted face, and as soon as a bottle of mineral water appeared in front of his eyes, he abruptly uncorked it and drained it in a couple of seconds, "God's Chosen and even Master of the Guild, call me Makarov.
- All right in front of everyone, but in a one-on-one conversation, you will remain a master, whether you like it or not!
- Eh, young people, they don't put old people in anything… - Makarov said with annoyance, - It would be better if I stayed in Fairy Tail, I would give you my place, and I myself would retire on a well-deserved pension.
- Yeah, and then racking your head with all the complaints, fines and explanations before the council? - Eros asked with a malicious smile, the Fairy Tail master looked away and began to whistle some melody to himself, - No, it's too early for you to retire, and if you want to leave someone in your place, then start teaching, there are good ones candidates: Elsa, of course, she is still young, but in five years she will be able to take on your "burden" and hold the whole guild by yay ... in general, in my hands, my teacher, I'm even ready to help and catch him myself for you, Mira ... Let's skip her, Lexus, your grandson, it seems like a good option too, even when I arrived here I saw it once and even then was not a weak magician, I think now his strength is at S-rank.
- Indeed, there are many candidates ... - sighing heavily, the old man laid his head on the bar.
- Okay, I won't press on a sore corn, but still, if anything, I'm for Elsa, a good girl in every sense.
- Ohoho ... Do you really like it, - Makarov asked with a malicious intonation.
- She's certainly pretty, I can't say anything here, but I already have a girlfriend ... And she's still that devil.
- It's a pity, I would not mind to set you up with her ...
- Okay, we went in the wrong direction, let's round off, I still need to put the guild in order ... - "It's a pity that Ultear is not around, she would only need a wave of her hand to fix everything ...", - Rick, because it was your holiday with Lily, then it's time for you to work! The master and your help will be needed, now we will be engaged in transferring the Fairy Tail mages to their guild, I think after yesterday, they are unlikely to be able to go on foot. Roni, you have 210 mineral water and at least one less, where you find them I don't care! Everything! Everyone to work!
