"Okay, okay, he did what he did because of Joseph's order, and he has learned a lesson."

"Teaching" refers to being slapped a few times lightly by Rhodes, and beaten hard by Erza and Mira.

And he was arrested and educated by the Senate for more than a month.

Makarov thinks Gajeel can still be saved.

He tried to calm everyone down, "As the saying goes, yesterday's enemies are today's friends.

Gajeel's nature is not bad, so just give him a chance. Doesn't Juvia get along well with everyone?"

Juvia is Juvia, Gajeel is Gajeel.

Aside from her beauty, Juvia didn't do anything outrageous.

She was captured by Rod and Mira before the war started. Apart from giving Lucy a bath, she did nothing, and even provided a bunch of information about ghosts.

Even so, she also apologized to Lucy for what happened before.

This initial good feeling is different.

Moreover, Juvia has been hanging around the guild for more than a month. With the exception of Gray, everyone can tell that she likes Fairy Tail.

Gajeel was different. He had a straight face from the moment he walked in. Except for the difference in Erza and Mira's eyes, he seemed to be provoking everyone he looked at.

It's just that the president has said that, and it's hard for them to refute.

Rhodes looked at Lebby and whispered in Makarov's ear: "President, at least consider how Lebby and the others feel?"

"Well..." Makarov was also a little embarrassed and whispered back, "How about I ask him to apologize in private? Give him some time."

Makarov felt that Gajeel's mouth was as hard as his magic. Even if he felt sorry in his heart, it would be difficult for him to express it directly.

Rhodes nodded: "As long as Leibi and the others don't have any objections, I don't care. If you're not happy, just have a few fights in the future."

Lucy held Lebby's hand in front of the counter and stared at Gajeel: "Lebby..."

Lebby was still a little trembling: "I, I don't mind anymore."

She said this, but when Gajeel looked at her, Lucy could feel her shaking even harder.

Lucy glared at Gajeel.

Jett and Troy stood up in front of the two girls and looked at him angrily.

Gajeel looked away, not wanting to conflict with them.

At the president's instruction, Mira took out the seal and stamped the black Fairy Tail emblem on the shoulder of Gajeel's left arm.

The position of the coat of arms is higher than that of Rhodes.

Gajeel looked at the crest and asked Makarov, "So I can go to work?"

Makarov nodded: "As long as it's a task posted on the first floor, you can choose it."

Gajeel randomly chose a mission to defeat the Dark Guild.

Makarov looked at the target and nodded: "Be careful."

Gajeel looked at him in surprise, nodded and left.

Erza looked at Gajeel's back and said to the president: "Although I trust your judgment, this man is different from Juvia. It would be better to send someone to pay attention to him."

"Hmm..." Makarov looked at Rhodes thoughtfully.

Rhodes was very familiar with this look: "You don't want to throw trouble on me again, do you?"

Makarov said: "Don't you always want to lead new people, and you also agree with my approach."

"I can understand what you are doing, but it doesn't mean I don't hate him. Who doesn't want the newcomer he brings to be more well-behaved."

Rhodes remembered that during the Larabai incident, the president said to Kagyama, 'It is also the responsibility of veterans to guide young people who have gone astray back to the right path.'

But Gajeel looked a bit unsettled that way.

However, Rhodes was worried that the guild president would be worried, so he added: "It's not impossible to let me go if you have to, just think of it as for the guild."

"Forget it, I'll make other arrangements. You've been working very hard recently, so don't force it."

In fact, Makarov had no intention of arranging anyone to monitor him, because he had an important task to give to Gajeel.

It's not convenient for him to get too close to Rhodes, and the same goes for others.

…

In the evening, Mira called Elfman and went to Rhodes' house together.

Good news, Mira took the initiative to come home with us.

Bad news, she still has her brother with her.

What's going on?

Mira looked at Rhodes and knew what he was thinking.

"I came to your house to see if you need to clean it. It can be faster if you have an extra person to help." Mira said, "The president has left a lot of things to do, and I don't have much time to go there these days."

She wanted to finish cleaning up early so that Rhode could have a rest early.

"Oh...it's all the president's fault, I won't let him drink." Rhodes was angry. Although he was the one who asked the president to come over to support him, but...

The ban on alcohol is for the president's health, not for revenge.

This was Elfman's first time at Rhodes' house, and it was tidier than he expected.

I originally thought it would be as chaotic as Natsu's house.

It's just that in Elfman's opinion, there seem to be too many photo frames and picture frames hanging on the walls of his house, and basically every one of them is related to his sister.

Some of the photos are group photos, some are individual photos, and some are simply cut out from old newspapers and magazines and pasted in a large photo frame for storage.

It almost looks more like my sister’s room than my sister’s room…

I really don’t know when he collected these things, and I don’t know when the two of them took the photo together.

It's just that my sister's expression looks very happy.

If you think about it carefully, if it weren't for those group photos, you would definitely think of Rhodes as a fanatic or even a crazy person when you come in.

As for those paintings, it looks like they were painted by Lidas.

It was originally just some warm or chaotic moments recorded by Lidas in the guild.

But if you treat your sister and Rhodes as the protagonists and watch them in chronological order, you can even piece together their process from acquaintance to falling in love.

Elfman took a closer look and realized that the way Rod looked at his sister was slowly changing, and so was the way his sister looked at Rod.

It seems that the two people did not get together suddenly.

The scene where this guy stood in front of his sister to catch the bottle seemed a bit cool - but why was he hung on the wall?

"Fortunately, it's not very dirty. Just wipe it off a little." Mira shouted, "Elfman, here to help."

"Coming."

In a sense, a family of three did the cleaning work conscientiously together.

After finishing, Rhodes sent the siblings downstairs.

Elfman said with a wink that he was anxious to go back and take a shower, so he took the first step.

Rhodes and Mira looked at each other and hugged each other tightly.

Three days and almost four days were separated at once, which was really too long.

The two said a few words to each other that sounded a bit disgusting to outsiders, and Mira was about to rush Rhodes to rest.

"Will you accompany me to meet new friends outside the city in a few days?" Rhodes was not willing to let go of his hand and gently smelled the fragrance of her hair, "Then, I want to take on a mission with higher pay."

"Yeah." Of course Mira understood what he meant. She buried her face in Rod's arms and sniffed his scent quietly, "I also want to come earlier."

In fact, there is a problem with Gajeel's joining in the original plot.

Juvia said that she introduced Gajeel to join, but Juvia had just officially joined the club that day... and when he arrived at Tenrou Island, Gajeel's memory was that Makarov found him and he didn't know that Juvia had joined the demon club.

It's not like I was angry with him beforehand...

It can only be understood that after the Tower of Paradise defeated Jellal, Juvia left the protagonist group and returned to the guild in advance to seal it, and then unilaterally recommended him to the guild leader. After Gajeel also joined, the protagonist

The group just returned.
