Chapter 98 - Hermes request (2/2)

Jin woke up by the knocking sound on his door. He got up lazily while rubbing his eyes. He went towards the door and opened it.

He saw Ur behind it. She was looking at him with those eyes of hers. Jin didn't back down as he met her gaze.

After a few moments Ur sighed and said, ”Someone wants to meet you.”

”Me?” Jin said as he pointed at his nose. He couldn't anyone that want to meet him.

”Yeah. And you already know him.” Ur nodded at him.

Jin nodded at her and went back inside his room. He changed his clothes and wear his mask.

Ur just looked at him with a complicated expression under her mask. She was now openly showing her affection to him after what happen to them that day but... It looks like Jin was avoiding that topic as he didn't even mention that.

'He must probably shock by what I did at that time... but I couldn't help it when I saw him crying.' Ur thought as she smile bitterly to herself.

...

Jin, Jellal, and Ur went to the Hostess of Fertility to meet someone. Jin already have a guess of who it is even if Ur didn't mention his name.

Mercphobia didn't follow them as he wasn't in the mood right now. He just want to stay in his room while looking outside the window.

The three of them went inside the famous pub. It's still morning so there's not much people inside the pub.

Syr, Arnya and the rest already know Jin but they didn't know Ur and Jellal. They looked at Ur and Jellal with a curious expression. Ur and Jellal were wearing the same mask like Jin. The only difference is the color. They remember that night Jin exhibit a power that pressure everyone. They wonder if Jin was some part of a secret organization but they remember that he said that he was part of the Artemis Familia.

Jin looked around and saw Hermes. His guess was right. This is the man that was looking for him.

Jin, Jellal, and Ur didn't say anything as they sat down in front of Hermes.

Jin looked at Hermes and said, ”What do you want?”

Hermes smile and said, ”I'd like to ask a favor.”

”Hoo~ you want to ask a favor. Tell me what it is.” Jin said as he smirked under his mask.

”Before that, we should order something. You can order anything it's my treat.” Hermes said while smiling.

Jin nodded as he put his hand on his mask and he slowly remove it. He then put it at the side of the table. He don't even care if people saw his face or not. Their mask was not made to hide their face. It was only used like that in Fairy Tail world.

Their mask was a part of their signature. Every member of Thousand Abyss will get their own mask as sign that you've join the group.
