May has come to an end, and nearly a month has passed since Rod and Mira officially started dating.

Rod has been having a little trouble recently.

On the one hand, there is cultivation. Although the progress has been good, it still takes some time to reach expectations.

On the other hand is emotion.

Recently, it's okay for the two of us to cuddle and hold hands, but the more intimate contact is less.

Rhodes thought about how to go further, and finally thought of traveling.

It's not a pure trip, but a mission that is far away and teamed up with Mira.

The two of them had discussed this matter a long time ago, but they never met anyone who was interested.

It just so happened that Rhodes hadn't traveled far for more than a month since he last encountered the devil's heart.

Mira took longer than him, and both of them wanted to go out for a walk.

It was on the last day of May that Rhodes finally saw a good mission.

The destination can be reached in the evening if you leave in the morning.

In terms of time, Rhodes estimates that it will take two or three days if everything goes well. He thinks the difficulty is average.

The reward is 200,000 J, which is already very good for an ordinary magician.

Rhodes immediately pointed out this task to Mira.

"It's good in all aspects, but the content is a little bit..." Mira looked at the word 'rat plague' and hesitated.

Although she is not an ordinary girl, she really hates things like mice and cockroaches.

Mira suggested: "It's better to ask Habi to catch it."

"Happy will die."

"But he's a cat."

"A cat can't deal with so many rats, not to mention there are mutated species among them. There might even be a rat king."

"Tell Elfman to take it."

Rhodes gave a thumbs up: "Good idea, but after taking over the Rat King, will you still let Elfman into your home?"

Mira didn't hesitate at all: "Just drive him out."

This way of doing the task is a bit troublesome.

"Are you really siblings?" Rhode complained, hugged Mira from behind, held her little hand, and said warmly,

"This is a rat plague, which is very troublesome. If it is not dealt with in time, the village may not be able to harvest anything this year. If it is serious, the food in the villagers' homes will be eaten up. I don't know how many people will starve to death."

There is no conflict between being sinister and kind. Mira stopped joking after realizing the seriousness of the matter.

She had experienced what it was like to be hungry.

Mira sighed slightly: "Okay, but I have to choose the next mission."

"Okay, if you're unhappy, I can give you a free kiss here."

"Humph, that's a nice thought." She grabbed Rhode's cheek and pulled hard as punishment.

Rhodes blushed and told the president about teaming up with Mira to go on a mission.

Forget about others, he and Mira had to tell the president if they wanted to leave together, so that the president could be mentally prepared.

"No!" Makarov hugged Rhode's leg in an exaggerated manner, crying with runny nose and tears, "It's the end of the month now, what will I do if you leave?"

"President, please pay attention to your image. We can finish the matter today and set off tomorrow." Rhodes wanted to take off the president, but the old man's strength was really amazing.

Makarov didn't care whether it was graphic or not, he was making noises like a child:

"But it's the beginning of the month right after the end of the month! At least ask Mira to stay. You can handle that kind of task by yourself, right?"

"No, we are a team and we cannot leave our companions behind."

Rhodes said it righteously. It was indeed not the first time that he and Mira teamed up, but they had only dealt with small tasks before.

The mission records can be checked, and no one can refute that they are a team. Mira said with a smile: "President, if you keep doing this, I will invite Erza to join us~"

"No!" Makarov immediately let go of Rhodes.

When Mira and Rhodes left, he could still ask Erza to support them. If Erza also left, the guild's sky would collapse.

As for the daily affairs, it would be okay to leave it to Macao and Wakaba.

But these problem children... those two people can't control them, and they often have to go out, so the guild will really be doomed.

Makarov compromised: "You must come back soon!"

As the president, you really shouldn't stop the children from going out to work.

Moreover, this is Mira's first mission after regaining her S-class status. Rhodes' insistence on teaming up with her must be because he wants to help her recover as soon as possible, right?

Makarov looked at the two people who were almost touching each other while working... This is really hard to say.

But this shows that the children have grown up, which is also a good thing.

Huh? Makarov suddenly thought that Mira was already S-class, why not...

Aren’t the two choices the same?

You need to think about this carefully, think about it carefully.

It would be nice if Gildarts could come back soon, I don't know how he is doing outside.

…

On June 1st, the weather was gloomy.

Rhodes got up early and went directly to Mira's house instead of gathering at the guild as before.

The person who opened the door was Elfman, wearing pajamas and holding a toothbrush in his mouth.

He said hello casually and turned around to continue washing up, letting Rhodes come in by himself.

Elfman is almost used to it. Recently, this man comes to pick up his sister from work every day.

In the beginning, he just picked up his sister from work, and he would go with her, but gradually he became too lazy to follow her.

Then one day Rod came a little early, so my sister simply asked him to come in for dinner.

Then...now we have breakfast together almost every day.

Elfman thought about whether to charge him for food, but it seemed that every time his sister went to buy ingredients, he would accompany her, and her sister said that he had already provided one.

This person is about to move in with me now.

My sister is going to get married eventually.

Elfman has recently begun to think about saving money. It feels inappropriate to live with his sister after they get married.

Rhodes didn't know what Elfman was thinking, so he skillfully changed into his slippers, walked in, and went straight to the kitchen.

Mira was wearing home clothes and an apron, with her long hair tied back and well wrapped with a scarf.

She is preparing breakfast and lunch for lunch on the road.

Rhodes looked at the kitchen door quietly for a while, experiencing the pounding feeling of his heart. He waited until she looked over and asked, "Do you want to help?"

In fact, it doesn't matter whether he asks this question or not, because at his level, the most helpful thing he can do is not to cause trouble.

Rhodes still couldn't figure out how Elfman mastered such good cooking skills.

Sure enough, Mira just smiled: "Just wait and wait."

"Oh." Rhodes stood at the door and looked at her.

Mira felt uncomfortable and picked up a piece of fried sausage and stuffed it into Rhode's mouth:

"Okay, go and wait outside. There are magazines on the table. You'll be ready in a moment."

Rhodes was satisfied with being fed.

He sat down and opened the magazine, thinking about taking some time to learn how to cook with Elfman.

Mira has been doing the hard work.
