Fairy Tail: I want to summon Baron Nash

A new day has arrived. Rod woke up to the sound of dripping rain. As soon as he got out of bed, he felt his legs swell.

Yesterday, maybe because of the stimulation or because he secretly made up his mind, Rod gritted his teeth and ran until he fell to the ground and couldn't get up.

Even when he went home, he specially summoned the Canyon Swift Crab to let it use its tentacles to roll him on its back and carry him back.

Before going to bed at night, Rod specially used a wet towel to apply cold compress for a while, and also found some swelling-reducing medicine from a large box of medicines sent by Erza.

Now it seems that it was fortunate that he had foresight.

Rod dragged his sore legs to the bathroom to solve personal problems and wash up. After coming out, he decided to use some more medicine.

"It's broken, I forgot to put away the clothes!"

Rod went to the balcony to check. Sure enough, it rained a little hard last night, and all the clothes were wet by the rain.

He had to put them away first and soak them in a basin with the sweaty clothes he took off yesterday.

Staring at the basin for a while, Rod reluctantly sat down to wash clothes.

There was no other way. Apart from these two sets and his pajamas, he only had one set left in his closet. Every time he opened the closet, he felt it was empty.

If he encountered any more accidents, Rhode would be faced with the dilemma of having no clothes to wear.

"I'll prepare two more sets when I have more money."

Rhode washed and wrung out the clothes and hung them in the laundry room temporarily.

He thought for a second about the possibility of taking them to the guild to find Naz to dry them, but gave up decisively - the risk was too great and he couldn't afford it.

After a flurry of activity, Rhode went downstairs to go to the guild.

However, the rain showed no signs of abating, but rather a tendency to get heavier. Even Goodman didn't come to the stall today.

Opening the door, Rhode realized a new problem - he hadn't bought an umbrella yet.

"I'm so miserable..." Rhode made a poor sound.

"Hurrah~"

At the critical moment, Worm took out an umbrella from the corner of the first floor.

"Well done!" Rhode praised, summoned a river crab, and jumped up with an umbrella to the guild.

Before leaving, he did not forget to leave a note for Goodman to tell him that he had borrowed an umbrella without permission.

The Canyon Swift Crab walked slowly on the street according to Rhode's instructions. It not only did not hate being in the rain, but also felt that such an environment was more comfortable.

Rhode sat cross-legged on the highest point of the Swift Crab's back shell and tilted the umbrella towards the direction where the raindrops were coming from.

The streets of Magnolia were much quieter in the rain. The hawking sounds in the morning on weekdays were basically gone, and there were only a few pedestrians passing by.

They were either holding umbrellas or wearing raincoats and rain boots, and they walked hurriedly in the water.

Rhode had seen many such scenes before crossing, but... he looked down at his appearance and felt that he was out of place here.

Yes, he was originally an alien who did not belong to this world.

But this little bit of pretentiousness completely disappeared when he arrived at the door of the guild.

Because at this moment, Laqi walked slowly from the northwest intersection with a wooden umbrella and a pair of wooden boots, and a wooden box in her other hand.

The long purple hair swayed gently, and it looked very friendly in the rain.

On the other side, Gray also came from the other side holding a large ice crystal umbrella with an exquisite shape.

The rain flowed down the umbrella cover, neither freezing nor melting the ice umbrella, but just adding a bead curtain-like decoration to the ice umbrella.

Noticing Rhode and Lucky, Gray raised his hand casually: "Yo!"

Laki responded energetically: "Morning!"

"Morning!" The swift crab disappeared, and Rhode was down to earth, looking at two companions who were as "weird" as him, and couldn't help but smile.

This is also the meaning of the existence of the guild, right?

The three of them walked into the guild gate. Laqi looked at the floor at the entrance and said, "I feel like I'll have to keep mopping the floor today."

Rod thought about what the cafeteria and supermarkets do on rainy days, and suggested, "How about putting a few more pieces of cardboard at the entrance?"

"Good idea, let's do it, but..." Laqi chose to cast a spell, "Wooden Shape·Pure Love is Spotless!"

Swish, swish, swish... Thin wooden boards appeared inside and outside the guild gate at the same time, and the upward side was deliberately made quite rough.

"Shaping magic is really convenient." Rhode sighed again, and by the way, he wanted to complain about what a crappy name it was.

It's better to call it "Clean soles of feet are spotless."

There wasn't much to do in the morning, so Rhode was busy for a while before finding Gray.

"Natsu's weakness?" Gray blurted out, "He's irritable and impulsive, and he's a fire fool."

"But..." Gray thought for a moment, "He's like this normally, but it's another story in battle.

Many times his intuition is as sharp as a beast, and it's very troublesome to fight him seriously."

Although he usually calls him a fool, and they don't get along well in terms of personality and magic, if Gray really wants to evaluate Natsu, he will definitely give him a high evaluation.

Unless it's in front of Natsu.

"That's it, I'm definitely going to get beaten again today." Rhode was worried, "Is there no actual, obvious, immediate weakness?"

"By the way, Natsu asked you to duel today!" Gray slammed his palm, he was interested in helping others beat Natsu!

"As for the obvious weakness, there is one!" Gray said, "That guy can't do anything with transportation, you just need to build a car under his feet and you'll win!"

"Good idea, but I don't know styling magic!"

"I'll teach you now!"

"Now!"

"That's right, now!" Gray raised his hands excitedly and his shirt disappeared, "Do it with me..."

Rhodes glanced at Gray's bare upper body and said, "Sorry to bother you, but I may not be suitable for learning the ice style."

Rhodes didn't think it was worth it to become a pervert in order to defeat Natsu.

"..." Gray just put his right fist against the palm of his left hand and looked at Rhodes who was running away in confusion, "Huh? I haven't started teaching yet."

While Natsu didn't come, Rhodes decided to find a quiet place to meditate for a while.

"Rod." Lucky called to him and handed him the wooden box he came with. "Inside is the magazine you want."

Rhodes' hand sank. More than fifty magazines were heavy: "Thank you... Why is this box without a mouth?"

"Because it was raining and I was worried about getting wet, I didn't open the door." Lucky said, "When you get back to a place where you can relax, just give the box a hard blow."

"...I know, you are so thoughtful."

Does she mean to go home and smash it open? Rhodes, who was not good at learning common language, took his mind for a while before he understood what she meant.

Also, it turns out that this box was made by her before she went out. The wood modeling magic is really suitable for life.

Rhodes put the box away, ran to the door of the library, sat down cross-legged, closed his eyes and meditated.

Feeling the magic power growing bit by bit, Rhodes felt the joy of harvest.

I don’t know when the next summon will come, how can I have some attack power then?
