Chapter 31 - Little break

"So, you are a Virgo?" 

"Yes, Mistress." Virgo introduced herself as a professional maid. "I am Kira-sama's sex slave, tool, and maid." 

"....." Kira. 

"I-I see..." 

Yet, when Kira thought that Lucy would go berserk, strangely enough, she was calm.

"Lucy... you seem so calm," strange, Kira thought as he asked. 

"Ah, yes, it's normal for a Celestial Spirit to be weird, and I know your character, so I believe in you." While Virgo was like this, weird, yet Lucy didn't think that Kira would mistreat Virgo. More importantly, she had seen many Celestial Spirits, and most of them—no, all of them had a unique personality, so she didn't seem to be surprised by Virgo's distinctiveness. 

"As expected of Kira-sama's wife. You are so generous, Mistress!" 

This was what Virgo truly thought since instead of getting angry at Kira, Lucy appeared to be understanding and accepted her right away. 

"Ah, did you see me as Kira's wife?" Lucy blushed, then asked with a happy laugh, then looked at Kira before she gave him a thumbs up. "You have gotten a good Celestial Spirit, Kira!" 

"..." Kira. 

There were many things that he wanted to say, but as they seemed to be okay, he didn't bother to think anymore; still, he had to say that it was amazing that Lucy didn't show jealousy or envy despite having a good Celestial Spirit. 

Virgo. 

Despite how perverted she was, without a doubt, Virgo was one of the powerful Celestial Spirits, as she was part of one of the Zodiacs and also a Golden Key. 

Then again, he thought that the reaction from Lucy and Virgo made him feel weird as they seemed okay with seeing him with another girl. 

Sighing, he wondered whether Mirajane was the only one who was fierce. 

"By the way, are we going back now, Kira?" 

While they didn't complete their quest, Lucy was satisfied with this outing as they could become heroes and defeat the evil.

Everlue was so corrupt and he had many victims, so when she thought that she had helped many people, it made her comfortable, and her vanity was also comforted when they also received the interview of many magazines and newspapers. 

Yes, while it might be shallow, Lucy wanted to become famous, too! 

Then again, at this moment, she just wanted to stay by his side. 

Unfortunately, she received no money, so she borrowed Kira's money and begged to stay in the same room. She thought of returning and picking a new quest to get money as soon as possible. 

After all, if this continued, she was afraid that she would become homeless! 

'But if I am forced to...'

Lucy looked at Kira with hesitation, then showed determination. 

"..." 

While Kira wasn't sure what Lucy was thinking, he took his wallet and said, "Lucy, come here." 

"What's wrong?" 

"Here's your reward." 

"...." Lucy. 

A stack of money was held in Kira's hand as he was about to give it to her. 

Yet, looking at the amount of money, Lucy could only stay in a daze since while she wasn't sure of the appropriate amount, she was sure that from the thickness alone, it should have reached a few million jewels! 

"What's wrong?" Kira looked at Lucy, who was in a daze. 

"K-Kira... I-I am not dreaming, right?" 

"..." 

Kira stared at Lucy for a while, then slapped the stack of money on Lucy's right and left cheeks. 

Slap! Slap! 

"Ah, it feels a bit painful, so it isn't a dream!" 

"Oh, course." Kira was helpless, then took Lucy's hand, which was smooth and comfortable to be held before he put her reward on her palm. "Take this. Use this for whatever you want." 

"This is too much! I don't deserve it, Kira!" 

While Lucy was happy, she felt that she didn't deserve that money. After all, not only had she messed up by choosing the wrong quest, but while she had helped him to take down Everlue, Kira took care of everything. 

Kira was the mastermind and did most of the work. 

As for her, she felt that she had done nothing to receive that money! 

"Receive it now; you are my partner. My assistant and you have helped me to record various things at Everlue's place before, so you deserve that. Or... you don't think that I am your partner?" 

"Kira..." 

Partner. 

Lucy felt like she wanted to cry! 

No, she was already crying!

It was perfectly normal for a mage to group together, making a team to solve a quest together, and for him to think of her as his partner. Of course, she was happy! 

"Then, I will receive this money. Thank you, Boss!" 

Still, even if they were a team, Lucy felt that their position wasn't equal, and it felt like he was the boss instead. 

"Boss?" Kira stared at Lucy for a moment, then rubbed his shoulder with an uncomfortable expression. "My shoulder is a bit stiff. I wonder whether someone can help me to rub it." 

"I will do it!" 

As Lucy was about to do so, Virgo somehow beat her to it and started to rub Kira's shoulders. 

"..." Lucy. 

"I am sorry, Lucy-sama. Even if you are his woman, the slave position is mine!"

Virgo said those words with blazing eyes. 

"..." Kira. 

"Th-Then, I will rub Kira's feet!" 

"....." Kira. 

Lucy didn't want to lose and crouched down as she started to rub Kira's shin, giving him a massage, and also gave him a full display of her round, ample breasts that could be seen from the upper part of her clothing. 

At the same time, Virgo also casually pressed her good-sized breasts on the back of his head as she kept rubbing his shoulders. 

"....." 

Kira knew that he shouldn't show a reaction, yet as he hadn't had a chance to relax and his stamina had also recovered after a long sleep and good breakfast, it was natural that having two beautiful women comforting him at the same time would make him react! 

Naturally, he couldn't let this continue, and he had to stop them before they even reacted. "By the way, Lucy, you have those reading glasses, right?" 

At the same time, inwardly, he thought that Lucy must be a masochist, feeling happy for being mistreated. 

"Ah, reading glasses? You mean Gale-Force Reading Glasses?" 

As a book lover, the Gale-Force Reading Glasses were a must-have item as they allowed the user to read a book at an incredible speed. While reading at one's pace was good, when one was busy, it was natural that they wanted to read the book as fast as possible. 

"Yes, can you lend it to me?" 

"Sure." 

Lucy took her glasses and then gave them to Kira.

"Thanks." 

"What are you going to read?" 

Kira took out the "DayBreak," the book that he got from Everlue. "This book." 

"Ah! The book that was written by Kaby Melon!" 

"Yup." Kira put on the glasses, which put the two women in a daze, then said, "It seems there is something hidden about this book, so—" 

Before he finished his words, his arms glowed in the red and blue color as his ability activated. The book suddenly shone brightly, and all the words on the book seemed to be twisted, moved, and changed before it transformed into a new book. 

"..." 

The "Day Break" became the "Dear Kaby," the name of the son of Kaby Melon, their previous client, who put forth a request, wishing for them to burn this book. 

The failed book that was disdained and hated by many turned out to have a secret. 

Still, was it still a shitty book? 

Kira was a bit curious before he started to read the book, but before that, he looked at Lucy, who looked at him with a hopeful expression and said, "You can read it later." 

"Yay!" 

Sighing at how simple this girl was, Kira started to read the book till the end, which made him understand why this guy was called a world-famous writer.
