17 After an Year (1/2)
Didn't that mean that he gave his 70% of the reward? That was more than any share that the others would want to give to the guild. Suddenly, Shun asked Wendy in a curious tone, ”Ohh...Where did you stay for the night, Wendy?”
Wendy blushed a bit, ”I stayed with Erza nee-chan in her room. She let me stay together with her…” Shun opened his mouth, ”Ohh…I guess I got to thank her for that. Don't worry, I will soon buy a large house, ok.”
Wendy nodded her head as even though she liked staying with Erza, she was visibly closer to Shun than Erza. Watching Shun right now, nobody could say that he was the same person who had beaten Laxus to the inch of his life. He was a completely different person with a smile on his face.
After playing with Wendy for some time, he remembered about Mirajane and his promise to her and her siblings. He had one problem, he forgot about the name of the town. He knew that he could recognize the town if Shun went in it, but he didn't have any idea about the location of the town.
He went towards the Mission Board where the posters were pinned and randomly selected one in which he had to go to a different town. It was about the delivery of an item. Many people were curious as to what mission he would take because of the power he exhibited when he beat up Laxus.
They peeked at the Mission poster and were confused as they saw that it was a Delivery Mission, they didn't understand why such a strong wizard in the guild was going for a C- Rank Mission.
They didn't understand that the reason he did this was that this would let him an opportunity to visit both towns, he could analyze them and see if that was the town in which he spent that one month.
He looked towards Wendy and smiled, ”Do you want to come with Nii-chan on this mission? It isn't a dangerous mission, we just have to take something and give it to someone else in another town.”
Wendy nodded excitedly, she waved back towards the other guild members and started to move out of the guild. As time passed, they took on more and more missions, and in a short time of 1 year, Shun had amassed enough popularity as he was the youngest as well as a member who had completed the highest number of missions.
Even though the members of the Fairy Tail feared him except Erza, Natsu, Gray, and Wendy and kept their distance from him, he didn't really care. Most of the time he would spend alongside Natsu showing him some tricks of Fire control.
Unlike Natsu, Shun didn't detest Gray and also trained him while keeping his own power in check. He wanted to let him get strong to give Natsu a challenge and even so that he could get stronger, their rivalry was amusing and also make them break past their limits.
He knew that even though they fought against each other, no other person in the guild knew them better. They had a mutual understanding through fighting, and he wasn't going to stop that any time soon.
This was what Zagnivol did to him all the time, so he didn't think it was weird, but Erza did believe that it was strange. She tried to get in between their fights, but at that time, Shun would glare at her and let her understand that this all was happening in his jurisdiction.
He had seen them fight multiple times but there was never a time when they critically injured the other, he wanted to let them fight, he wanted them to understand each other. He felt as if it would be beneficial in the future…
He also searched for a House and bought a beautiful house that was closest to Natsu's House. It was so that Natsu could come at any time, Wendy seemed to like his presence too as he was a fellow Dragon Slayer as them.
