Chapter 361 Magic Ball (Ch 361)

“It’s… so… uncomfortable…”
Natsu covered his mouth with one hand and was helped out of the tricycle by Lucy.
“Wow!”
Lucy screamed, and Natsu’s legs went weak, almost bringing Lucy to the ground. Lucy quickly supported him.
In order to save time, the magic tricycle was moving at full speed.
As a result, Natsu, who was already prone to transportation dizziness, felt even more uncomfortable in the car.
“We’re finally here.”
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
The magic tricycle moving at full speed is not a pleasant experience for everyone.
“Is this the client’s home?”
Noah looked around and saw that they were on a mountain surrounded by trees.
On top of the mountain, which has been flattened, there is a very distinctive building.
It looks like it is made up of various vegetables, and at the top of the building there is a huge teapot pouring tea.
“Well, this is the client’s home, the Barusamigo Palace.”
Gray looked around and said to everyone.
“It’s farther than I thought.”
Erza said as she looked at the building in front of them.
“Knock on the door.”
Noah walked up and was about to knock on the door when it opened by itself.
Noah took two steps back to avoid being hit.
A girl with brown hair and a beautiful face came out. She was wearing a light red dress with a white bow on her waist with a red flower on it.
Her beautiful appearance brightened Noah and the others’ eyes.
“May I ask who you are?”
She asked Noah and the others softly.
“Who are you?”
Gray asked.
“I am the owner of this palace, the daughter of Barusamigo, and my name is Achet.”
The girl said softly.
“We are members of Fairy Tail, and we came here at your father’s request.”
Noah took a step forward and said to Archet.
At the same time, Noah raised his right hand and gestured to the other party with his guild emblem.
“Ah, then please let me lead the way for you!”
A smile appeared on Achette’s face. She took two steps back and made a gesture of invitation.
“This way, please.”
“Sorry to bother you then.”
Noah nodded, led the way and followed Achter into the palace, followed by the others.
I went straight to the living room, where a very short man with a very distinctive face was already sitting on the sofa in the main seat.
Archett walked over and sat down next to him, then lifted him up and placed him on his lap.
Erza, Lucy, Natsu, and Happy also sat down, while Noah and Gray stood behind the sofa.
“I am the client, Count Barusamico.”
The man introduced himself to Noah and the others.
“Hahahahaha!!! Not only does the name sound sour!”
“It looks so sour too!”
Natsu and Happy were laughing till tears came out of their eyes.
“Just shut up!”
Lucy’s face turned red when she heard what they said, and she couldn’t help but speak loudly to Natsu and Happy.
Natsu and Happy were startled by her.
“Let’s get right into the subject of the work. This work is a little more complicated than what is written in the commission.”
Count Barusamico was not surprised and did not say much, but went straight to the content of the commission.
“Please tell me more about this.”
Erza showed a serious expression.
“This is about my extremely beautiful daughter…”
Before Count Barusamico could finish his words, he was interrupted by Natsu:
“What’s your name?”
“Call Achette!”
Count Barusamico exclaimed.
“Bang!”
Natsu was punched by Erza and hit against the wall nearby.
“I’m sorry, please continue.”
“There will be a magic ball held in my palace tonight to help my daughter choose a husband.”
Count Barusamico said.
“Magic ball? Choosing a husband?”
Lucy asked in surprise.
“Well, it was a dance attended only by wizards.
At that time, I will take out the ring that I only show once every seven years. It is a very important ring that has been passed down from generation to generation in our Barusamico family! ”
Count Barusamico exclaimed.
“Could it be that Belbeno has set his eyes on this ring?”
Lucy took out the power of attorney and said while looking at the person on it.
“Well, I received news that Belbeno has set his sights on this ring, so I would like to ask you to protect my ring and then send him back to prison.”
Count Barusamico said to everyone.
“But, with Belbeno’s appearance, he will be discovered immediately no matter how he disguises himself and sneaks into the dance.”
Erza looked at the portrait on the wanted poster and couldn’t help but say.
“Ha ha!”
Noah couldn’t help but laugh out loud after hearing what Erza said.
“Isn’t it?”
Erza turned around and looked at Noah and said.
“I think you are right. This person’s appearance is really not good. He will be discovered as soon as he shows up.”
Noah said with a smile.
“That guy can use a transformation magic called Magic Copy.”
Count Barusamico said seriously.
“I remember that it was a transformation magic that could copy the magic of multiple wizards that it had come into contact with in a short period of time.”
Noah said.
“Yes, that’s the effect of that magic. Through that magic, he can easily sneak into the dance.
So I want to gather your strength, protect my ring, and then send him back to prison.”
Count Barusamico nodded and said.
“Leave it to us!”
Natsu said with a smile
“We have understood almost everything. We will not disappoint you.”
Erza also stood up and said.
“Okay, I’ll leave it to you then.”
Count Barusamico nodded and said.
“Let’s go make some preparations first.”
Noah said to everyone.
“I’ll arrange for servants to help you. Just tell them if you need anything.”
Count Barusamico called the servants, and Noah asked them to take them to the ball venue for a comprehensive inspection and familiarize themselves with the surrounding environment.
Then a lot of surveillance magic crystals were placed on the field to monitor the entire field.
“Who will stay to observe and monitor the magic crystal?”
Erza asked.
“It’s alright. I’ll just leave a thought body here. The thought body and the harpy will keep an eye on the magic crystal. We can communicate with each other via telepathy when the time comes.”
Noah said to her.
“That’s great, let’s get ready for the dance!”
Erza said this angrily, and went to prepare for the party.
“Eruza, wait for me!”
Lucy quickly followed Erza’s steps.
“Let’s go change our clothes too.”
Noah said to Natsu and the others.
Natsu and the others nodded, and the three of them went to change into suits.
By the time they changed and came out, the banquet was about to begin.
The entire venue was brightly lit, illuminating the various luxurious arrangements in the venue, making it look gorgeous and stylish.
At the same time, soft music sounded in the venue, stirring up everyone’s emotions.
Guests walked into the venue in twos and threes, looking for and inviting others to dance.
The guests at the banquet were all wearing masks that covered the upper part of their faces. Noah and his friends also put on masks and walked into the venue.
After waiting for a while, the thought body saw Erza and the others changed their clothes and walked into the venue wearing masks.
Erza was wearing a purple halter dress, while Lucy was wearing a red tube top dress.
So Noah used telepathy to pull everyone in so that they could communicate through telepathy.
“Noah, have you spotted anyone who looks like Belbeno?”
Erza’s voice sounded in the telepathy.
“No, I used the surveillance magic crystal to investigate the entire venue, and I didn’t see any suspicious people.”
Noah’s voice rang out.
“I’ll tell you right away if I spot any suspicious people!”
Habib said beside him.
“We should act normal and natural, and not let people see that we are abnormal right away.”
Noah said to everyone.
“Where are Natsu and the others?”
Lucy’s voice rang out.
“Over there.”
Erza had already seen where Noah and the others were, so she started walking over, and Lucy quickly followed.
“Oh, Lucy and the others are already out.”
Natsu saw Lucy and the others approaching.
“Then let’s blend in with the guests and dance.”
Gray said with a smile.
“Wait a minute, Natsu, let me help you get into shape first.”
Noah held Natsu down, his hand flashing with magic.
“Additional: Enhanced sense of balance!”
“Ohh! I miss this state so much. I can’t wait to try it out!”
Natsu said excitedly.
Noah looked around the venue. The small stages floating up and down were where the guests danced in pairs.
If I don’t help Natsu add some status, he will probably vomit as soon as he goes up.
“But will that Belbeno really appear in such a gorgeous place?”
Erza’s voice rang out.
“It seems that I can only investigate those who look suspicious as discreetly as possible.”
Lucy replied.
Suddenly, a man rushed in front of Erza and said to her in a very strange tone:
“Hey, hello, lovely girl~ Don’t make an ugly expression~ Dance happily with me!”
“Erza was asked to dance by a strange man!”
Habibi said quickly in his speech.
“Then let’s go over and take a look.”
Noah said to Natsu and the others.
“learn.”
So the three of them walked towards Lucy’s position together.
“You don’t seem very worried?”
Gray found it a little strange to see that Noah looked very calm.
Generally speaking, as a boyfriend, you would feel anxious if your girlfriend is invited out by other men.
“Do you know what Erza is called when it comes to dancing?”
Noah said to Gray.
“What’s your name?”
Gray was curious and Natsu looked over as well.
“She is called the Dancing Ghost, you see.”
As they were already beside Lucy, Noah pointed to the small stage that had risen up and said to Natsu and Gray.
