Chapitre 361: Catching up with Old Acquaintances
Earth Land, Ishgar, Era.
May, x785.
While Tsunade was introducing Alfonzo, Marin, Wendy, and Carla to the members of Mermaid Heel, Makarov, who had become a member of the new Magic Council, thanks to Alfonzo and Ur's plan, was sifting through paperwork with a disgruntled expression on his face.
"Damn those two." Makarov muttered while reading a document. "This is not how I expected to spend my retirement."
At that moment, the doors to the meeting room opened. And through them, Jura Neekis, an S-Class wizard of Lamia Scale as well as one of the Ten Wizard Saints, walked in.
"Good evening, Master Makarov." Jura said upon entering the Magic Council's meeting room.
"Ah... Jura." Makarov replied with a grandfatherly smile. "What can I do for you, my boy?"
"Actually, I have a request for your guild." Jura replied. "Actually, it's a request for Alfonzo Marcus."
"*Sigh* That boy sure is popular." Makarov replied with a smile. Though, to anyone who was looking closely, they would be able to tell that he was gritting his teeth. "Let me guess, you want him to install some training rooms at the Lamia Scale guild hall, too, right?"
"Indeed." Jura replied.
"And just out of curiosity, how did you find out about those?" Makarov asked.
"Ah… It was lady Ritsu who told me about them." Jura replied with a nod. "Also, Lyon had heard about them from Gray."
"*Sigh* I see." Makarov said while shaking his head. "Either way, you'll have to talk about that with Ur and Alfonzo. But I can pass the message along."
"Many Thanks, Master Makarov." Jur said with his palms together and bowing his head.
"Anyway, let's get back to---" Makarov said, turning his head back to the paperwork on his desk.
However, before he could finish his sentence, a messenger entered the meeting room with quick footsteps.
"Master Makarov, there's a letter for you." The messenger said after approaching Makarov's desk.
"Thank you, my boy." Makarov said as he accepted the letter.
Opening the letter, Makarov wasted no time starting to read it. Meanwhile, the messenger made his way out of the room.
"That Ritsu... Is there anyone she didn't tell about this?" Makarov asked in a tone of disbelief. "Bob and Goldmine said they heard about the training rooms from her, too. But wait, why is this the first request we're getting from Quatro Cerberus? Weren't there two members of that guild on the quest to bring in the mad scientists?"
Just at that moment, another messenger entered the room with a letter addressed to Makarov. And just like he did with the first, Makarov opened it and started reading immediately.
"Wow, even the Fabled Village Hidden in the Leaves is asking for training rooms, too?" Makarov said in a surprised tone. "And they were recommended by Tsunade, the master of Mermaid Heel, and a member of Quatro Cerberus, Might Guy. Damn, that boy is making a lot of connections for the guild with his inventions."
"Congratulations, Master Makarov." Jura said, having been listening to Makarov's monologues. "It seems Fairy Tail will grow in strength yet again."
"Yeah…" Makarov replied. "A lot of money will be coming in, too. *Sigh* And it all happened after I retired. Why couldn't the guild's coffers be this full when I was still the guild master? Instead, I had to spend a lot of my own money to clean up after those brats!"
*Bang!*
As Makarov shouted the last part, he simultaneously slammed his fists on his desk. Meanwhile, Jura could only watch Makarov with a wry smile.
"Either way, I guess I should send a message to Ur so she can make sure Alfonzo is prepared for the influx of orders." Makarov continued, letting his angry expression turn into a proud smile.
Earth Land, Ishgar, Kingdom of Fiore, Mermaid Heal Headquarters.
"So, Alfie, why didn't you bring Erzie-Werzie with you, meow?" Millianna asked while Marin and Anko were engaged in conversation.
"Because she was on a quest with her team." Alfonzo replied with a shrug. "But we didn't even know you were part of this guild, Millianna."
"Oh, yeah." Millianna said in a tone that suggested she just realized that. "I guess I forgot to let her know that I had settled down."
"So, how are the other two?" Alfonzo asked. "Shô and Wally?"
"Oh, they're fine." Millianna replied. "They're still traveling around, meow. And when they run out of money, they find a casino to work in for a while. Sho would take a job as a dealer while Wally becomes a bouncer, meow."
"Well, at least they're doing well." Alfonzo replied with a smile. "Oh, Erza and I ran into Simon about a month ago, too."
"Really?" Millianna asked excitedly. "So, how is he?"
"Well, he became a village chief." Alfonzo replied with a chuckle. "He reestablished his old village, Rosemary Village."
"OH, I remember him talking about that, meow." Millianna said excitedly. "He told us it was destroyed when he and Erzie-Werzie got abducted."
"Yeah, that's right." Alfonzo replied with a nod.
"But why did he tell you about it and not me, Shô, or Wally" Millianna asked while tilting her head in confusion.
"He didn't really tell us about it." Alfonzo replied while shaking his head. "We took a quest that led us there. It was under attack from a flock of Crow Tengu, and they were kidnapping villagers. So, Erza and I---"
"What was that?" a cold female voice asked from behind Alfonzo.
Looking in the voice's direction, Alfonzo and Millianna saw Kagura standing there with her arms crossed and a perturbed expression on her face.
'Oh, shit.' Alfonzo thought to himself. 'I forgot she was here, too. And Simon wanted to keep that whole mess a secret from her.'
A moment later, Alfonzo shrugged that thought away.
'Oh well, it's not my problem.' Alfonzo thought to himself. 'I'm sure she would have found out eventually, anyway.'
"Oh, hey, Kagura. How's it goin'? Yeah, Rosemary Village was under attack by a flock of Crow Tengu." Alfonzo repeated. "But there's nothing to worry about any more. Erza and I got rid of the whole flock."
"I'm glad to hear that." Kagura replied sternly. "Still, why didn't that stupid older brother of mine tell me about it?"
"Because he didn't want you to worry." Alfonzo replied with a shrug. "He probably didn't want to disappoint you, either. You know, making you think he couldn't handle the village on his own."
"It's even more disappointing that he didn't ask me for help when he needed it." Kagura replied.
"I guess." Alfonzo replied. "I mean, family should stick together, and all that shit."
"Exactly." Kagura replied. "Though the profanity was unnecessary."
"Can't help it." Alfonzo replied with another shrug.
"Wait, you know kagura, too?" Millianna asked with her eyes wide open in surprise. "But didn't Simon want to keep that from happening at all costs?"
"We met on the joint mission back in November." Alfonzo replied.
"Indeed." Kagura replied. "Besides, my brother has no right to decide who I associate with."
"Oh…" Millianna said while shrinking back from Kagura's intense gaze.
At that moment, Alfonzo turned his head away from the conversation with Millianna and Kagura when he felt the hem of his shirt was being pulled. And when he looked in the direction of the disturbance, he saw Wendy with a slight blush on her face.
"What's up, Wendy?" Alfonzo asked.
"I'm hungry." Wendy said in a small voice. "Should I go order something from the guild, or are you going to cook something tonight?"
"Personally, we would prefer your cooking." Carla said, having walked over with Wendy.
Before Alfonzo could answer, however, a shadow swept by. Then, Carla was no longer standing next to Wendy.
"Huh?" Wendy exclaimed in surprise. "Carla, where did you go?"
"Ooh~~~~~!" A feminine squeal could be heard from not too far away. "Such acute kitty!"
Hearing that squeal, all the conversation at the table stopped. On top of that, Millianna was no longer sitting in her seat. And when they looked in the direction of the squeal, all those who knew her, saw what they expected to see. Millianna hugging Carla with excitement shining in her eyes.
"How dare you!" Carla shouted while struggling to free herself. "Let go of me this instant!"
"But you're such a cutie!" Millianna said while rubbing her face on Carla's fur.
"Even if that's true, that doesn't give you the right to pick me up without my permission." Carla argued.
Meanwhile, Alfonzo, Kagura, and Anko could only sigh at the antics they've come to expect from Millianna. Meanwhile, Wendy was somewhat panicking. At the same time, Marin found it funny. Though, she tried to keep in her laughter. Otherwise, Carla would have been mad at her for a long time.
"Millianna, let her go." Kagura ordered. "Can't you tell she doesn't like it?"
"But Kagura… It's a kitty." Millianna said reluctantly.
"Yes, I'm aware." Kagura replied. "That doesn't change the fact that she doesn't like what you're doing."
In response, Millianna looked at Carla with tears in her eyes. Still, she put her down after seeing the irritation in the Exceed's eyes.
"Okay… Sorry, Kitty." Millianna said sadly.
Immediately upon release, Carla used her [Aera Magic] and spread her wings before flying over to Wendy and hiding behind her. Then, once she felt she was safe, she glared at Millianna from behind Wendy.
"The kitty can fly, too~~~~!" Millianna squealed again.
"My name isn't 'Kitty'." Carla said aggressively. "It's Carla."
A moment later, Carla's eyes narrowed in pleasure as Alfonzo started scratching behind her ears to calm her down.
"Don't be mad, Carla." Alfonzo said softly. "She just really likes cats. And you're quite the cute one. So, she couldn't help herself. Anyway, I'll cook us some dinner, okay?"
With that, Alfonzo removed his hand from Carla's head. Then, he stood up from his seat.
"Don't scratch my ears without my permission!" Carla shouted. Though, it was clear to see that she was just embarrassed. Then, she turned to Wendy and continued. "And Wendy, you shouldn't get too close to him, he's too good at making girls comfortable."
"Carla…" Wendy said with a blush.
"Oh ho… A man that can cook?" Anko asked with interest. "You don't see that too often outside of restaurants."
"Yeah, Alfonzo's got to be the best cook in Fiore." Marin said with her chest puffed out in pride.
"Really?" Anko asked with mischief swirling in the depths of her pupil-less eyes. "That's a pretty big title to live up to, isn't it? Why don't you let me test your cooking to find out if it's true."
"As long as you got the money." Alfonzo replied. "I don't work for free, after all."
"Fonzie, I don't think that will work here." Marin replied with a wry smile. "We'd be using their ingredients, after all."
"Hmm… Now that you mention it." Alfonzo said in a tone of realization. "Damn it… I should have stopped to get groceries along the way. Oh well, I can make a trip to Cedar some time tomorrow."
Hearing that, Millianna, Kagura, and Anko looked at Alfonzo skeptically. To them, it sounded like he was trying to make an excuse as to why he would not cook for them.
"Anyway, if I can use the kitchen and some ingredients, I'll cook something for you two, Wendy and Carla." Alfonzo continued after thinking about his plans for tomorrow.
"Just for them?" Marin asked in an aggrieved tone.
"Of course I'll cook for you, too, Marin." Alfonzo replied with a wry smile.
"I wanna try it, too." Millianna replied with her hand raised. "Erzie-Werzie said your cooking was really good when I last saw her."
"The She-Devil spoke of your skill in the kitchen, as well." Kagura added. "I'll admit, I'm quite curious."
"And I'm damn sure not gonna be the only one left out." Anko chimed in.
"Fine, fine." Alfonzo said while shaking his head. "But if you want my cooking after today, it won't be free. Anyway, I'll need to borrow the kitchen."
"You can follow me." Ritsu said from the next table over. "Though, I would like the chance to taste your cooking again, as well."
"Fuck…" Alfonzo gasped in surprise. "Where the hell did you come from? And how long have you been there?"
Not only Alfonzo was surprised by Ritsu sudden appearance. Instead, everyone at the table jumped from hearing Ritsu's voice so suddenly.
"If we were at home…" Marin said while patting her chest. "That would have been enough to start a brawl."
"Uh huh." Wendy agreed with a nod of her head.
"Our guild mates are so barbaric." Carla said exasperatedly, not disagreeing with Marin's assessment.
"I've been here ever since the introductions ended." Ritsu replied. "I had no reason to follow Tsunade upstairs, after all."
"*Sigh* We need to put a bell on you." Alfonzo said in an exasperated tone.
'Since I didn't think anyone would be attacking me while I was here, even if there are probably some girls here who hate men, I didn't have my [MPD] spread out.' Alfonzo said while shaking his head internally.
"Anyway, I guess I'll be borrowing your kitchen and some ingredients." Alfonzo said politely. "Any requests?"
That last question was directed at the members of Mermaid Heel. Alfonzo already knew what kind of food Marin, Wendy, and Carla liked. So, as long as he made one of those, they wouldn't complain.
"I like sweets." Anko was the first to reply. "And I don't like spicy food."
"I want fish." Millianna said with a hand raised.
"Anything is fine with me." Kagura said. "I'm not picky."
"I'd like the same dish you served me back in Magnolia." Ritsu replied with a smile as she started walking towards the kitchen. "I believe it was called Fettuccini Alfredo, if I remember correctly."
"Sure." Alfonzo said while mentally noting down the orders and following Ritsu.
Then, about half an hour later, Millianna, Kagura, and Anko were drawing large amounts of attention to themselves as they moaned sensually after their first bite of Alfonzo's cooking. Unfortunately, this also drew quite a bit of attention to Alfonzo, the one who cooked what caused the commotion. As a result, Alfonzo spent the rest of the night cooking, while listening to the food-gasms from the ladies of Mermaid Heel, until it was time for him, Marin, Wendy, and Carla to return to their accommodations for the night.

Chapitre 362: Getting to Work
Earth Land, Ishgar, Kingdom of Fiore, Mermaid Heel Headquarters.
May, x785.
"Damn, I'm tired." Alfonzo said as soon as he stepped into the house that served as his, Marin's, Wendy's, and Carla's lodgings for the duration of their stay with Mermaid Heel.
"I don't even know why you started cooking while we were still in their guild hall." Marin said with a chuckle. "You should have known this would happen."
"Yeah, I know." Alfonzo replied while smiling wryly. "But after Wendy and Carla mentioned that I could cook, there was no way I was going to get out of it."
Though Wendy had fallen asleep part way through the welcome party and was currently being carried in Marin's arms, Carla glared at Alfonzo for his statement.
"Are you trying to say we are responsible for what happened?" Carla asked with her eyes narrowed.
"Well, Wendy did ask if I was going to cook something in front of Anko." Alfonzo replied, completely unbothered by Carla's glare. "And you did say that you'd prefer it if I was the one who cooked. Or did I imagine that?"
"Immediately, Carla looked away in slight embarrassment. Instead, she focused her glare on Marin.
"That may be true." Carla said. "But I'm sure Marin's comment about you being the best cook in Fiore did not help, either."
"Yeah, you're right about that." Alfonzo replied with a nod. "And I plan to punish her for that. But for now, I'll bring in everyone's luggage. It's been a long day, and I'm sure you want to get some sleep, too."
Instead of replying verbally, Carla nodded her head, yawned, and rubbed her eyes. Then, she and Marin took Wendy to one of the bedrooms and put her to bed.
Also, though it was not previously mentioned, the house Ritsu provided for the Fairy Tail wizards was a simple two story house with three bedrooms, two and a half baths, a kitchen, living room, dining room, and a backyard large enough to do some light training.
And right now, the Escalade and the trailer carrying the necessary materials for Mermaid Heel's upgrades were parked in front of this house. In fact, riding back with Alfonzo and the others is the only reason why Tsunade and Ritsu were able to return so quickly after leaving the guild hall earlier in the day.
Not long later, Alfonzo re-entered the house with everyone's luggage. First, he took Wendy and Carla's luggage to the room where he could feel everyone's presence. However, he only left their things outside of the door.
"Hey, Wendy and Carla's bags are out here." Alfonzo called through the half-open door without looking inside.
"You better not come inside." Carla hissed.
"Yeah, Yeah, I'm not gonna fall into such a cliché development." Alfonzo replied nonchalantly. "Besides, Wendy's a bit too young for me to be interested, anyway."
Though Carla wanted to be upset at Alfonzo for some reason, she did not know what to say. So, she chose to remain silent while continuing to help Marin change Wendy out of her clothes.
"Anyway, I'm gonna go put my own stuff away." Alfonzo said as he started walking away. "Oh, and I'm gonna put your stuff in the other empty bedroom, Marin."
"Huh?" Marin exclaimed in confusion. "But I'm sleeping with you, aren't I?"
"Sure, if you want." Alfonzo replied without stopping. "But won't it be easier to pack up your stuff if you don't' have to worry about it being mixed up with mine?"
"I guess." Marin replied as she stepped out of Wendy's bedroom to pick up the luggage. "As long as that doesn't' mean that I have to sleep in that room, I don't really care where my stuff is. I mean, I have my own room back in the mansion, too."
With that, Alfonzo put Marin's luggage down before making his way to the house's master bedroom. Then, after taking some time to inspect the room, he started putting his belongings away.
"*Sigh* This is gonna be a really tiring month." Alfonzo muttered to himself while hanging his clothing in the closet.
["You're the one who set the timeframe for a month."] Bedlam replied from Alfonzo's inner world. ["It's not like you couldn't have stretched it further than that."]
"Yeah, I know." Alfonzo replied. "But I really don't wanna make Lici wait any longer. Two years in our past life and another twenty in this one. I'm surprised she hasn't already given me some kind of ultimatum for our marriage."
["It's because our Lici is understanding and caring."] Riot said, cutting into the conversation. ["Because the circumstances were what they were, she knew that she had to wait. *Sigh* She's so wonderful."]
["Super-simp."] Bedlam said with a bit of derision in his tone.
["The fuck did you just say?"] Riot asked angrily.
["If you're not super-simping, I don't' know what else to call it."] Bedlam replied, seemingly unbothered by Riot's angry outburst. ["Or did you forget, she helped another girl take advantage of Alfonzo while he was drunk?"]
In response, Riot could only grit his teeth. Though he was created from the feelings of love Alfonzo held for Elicia, he was also created from Alfonzo's anger. So, even with his feelings for Elicia, every time that incident is brought up, he almost completely loses it and wants to tell Alfonzo to cancel the engagement. However, that feeling only really lasts for about a second. Then, he would start trying to convince Alfonzo to forgive her.
"Okay, kids, that's enough." Alfonzo said in an exasperated tone. "Riot, chill out. We've already gotten past that. And Bedlam, even if what you're saying isn't wrong, stop egging him on with it all the damn time."
["Tch!"] Riot only clicked his tongue before falling silent.
["Fine… I'll stop."] Bedlam said with a cocky smile on his face. ["but like what Alfonzo said, I wasn't wrong."]
[I'll fucking kill you!"] Riot exploded.
Instead of trying to stop the bickering, Alfonzo simply cut off the connection with his [Armament Spirits] for a while.
"Were you talking to your [Armament Spirits] just now?" Marin asked as she entered the bedroom.
"Yeah." Alfonzo replied while continuing to hang his clothing.
"*Sigh* I wonder when I'll be able to hear my [Armament Spirit's] voice." Marin said wistfully as she clung onto Alfonzo's back.
"Soon." Alfonzo replied with a smile as he reached up and patted Marin on the head. "You only transformed your [Soul Armament] from its embryo state earlier in the month. I'd bet that you'll be able to talk to it by the end of summer at the latest."
"I hope so." Marin replied before pecking Alfonzo on the cheek. "Still, I have no idea how long it will take until I can release its first seal. I'm not nearly as talented as you, Lici, and Erza, after all."
"Don't sell yourself short." Alfonzo replied as he returned to putting his clothing in the closet. "I mean, you made A-Class in less than four years when you hadn't been training at all before that. So, you're pretty talented."
"Yeah, but in the same amount of time, both Erza and Mira made S-Class." Marin said, sounding a bit downcast.
Hearing Marin's tone, Alfonzo decided that he could finish putting away his clothes later. Then, he pulled her around to his front.
"You know there's no point in comparing yourself to everyone else, right?" Alfonzo asked as he placed his forehead against Marin's. Then, while looking into her eyes, he continued. "Otherwise, you'll start having really stupid thoughts like Cana did. And you know how that ended."
Hearing that, Marin couldn't help but start to giggle at the thought of Cana laying over Alfonzo's lap while being spanked like a naughty child.
"Or… Maybe you want to be punished." Alfonzo said in a lecherous tone.
"Kya!" Marin yelped as Alfonzo tossed her onto the king sized bed in the room.
"Speaking of punishment." Alfonzo said as he started walking towards the bed. "You need to be punished for adding to the chaos earlier.
At the same time, the entire room was covered in a thin sheet of metal. Though, there were a few openings to let air circulate. A moment later, runes were carved into the metal, creating a silencing barrier around the room.
"Oh, no!" Marin said dramatically with a smile on her face. "Please, I'm sorry. I don't wanna be punished."
Hearing Marin's words and tone, Alfonzo only rolled his eyes while starting to take off his clothes.
"Sure, you don't." Alfonzo said before pouncing on Marin, who accepted her punishment with grace and poise.
Around three and a half hours later, the metal surrounding the room was dispelled. Meanwhile, Alfonzo was standing next to the side of the bed, fully dressed. At the same time, Marin, with a satisfied smile on her face, was fast asleep while hugging a pillow.
"Alright, it's time to get to work." Alfonzo said while adjusting his collar. "I only have about five hours until sunrise. So, I'd better get going."
["Did you ever figure out where you'd start the work?"] Bedlam asked curiously.
"Yeah." Alfonzo replied as he opened a window. "There's a small uninhabited island with a lake that's almost as large and just as deep as Lake Sciliora a few miles off the coast. And I bought that island just before going on the quest with Erza. It'll be a good place to test the airship's weapons when I finish building it, too."
["But will you have enough to buy Lake Sciliora?"] Bedlam asked.
"Don't worry." Alfonzo replied. "After introducing the line of muscle cars, magic vehicle sales have gone through the roof. So, money isn't an issue."
["That's good."] Bedlam replied.
["Get going already."] Riot ordered. ["It's not like you have all the time in the world."]
"*Sigh* Even though I know you're right, it wouldn't kill you to shut the hell up, would it?" Alfonzo asked as he jumped out of the window.
["Eat a dick."] Riot replied angrily.
At the same time, Alfonzo's body was covered in arcs of blue electricity. Then, in a flash, he vanished from outside the house.
Meanwhile, Tsunade, who was still in her office, put down her sake cup. And when she noticed the blue flash in the night, she looked towards the house where Alfonzo, Wendy, and Carla would be staying for the next month.
"I wonder where he's going?" Tsunade muttered. Then, she shook her head and returned to looking over the blueprint of the guild hall, making sure that everything would be perfect when Alfonzo started installing the training rooms. "Well, as long as he's back in time to start his work, I don't' care what he does."
A few moments later, Alfonzo appeared over an uninhabited island off the coast of Fiore. And just like he told Riot and Bedlam, it had a large lake near its center.
["Yeah, that looks about the same size as the one back home."] Bedlam said. ["I'm actually surprised you were able to find it."]
"Actually, I wasn't the one who found it." Alfonzo replied as he pulled Riot and Bedlam from the strap on his lower back. "Gramps found it for me after becoming a member of the Council. He scolded me for making him work so hard after retirement the whole time, though."
["Ah… The benefit of having friends in high places, huh?"] Bedlam asked in an enlightened tone. ["But seriously, how do I not know about this? I mean, I should know everything you do."]
["Yeah, how are you shielding your thoughts from us like that?"] riot asked.
"This time it's on the two of you." Alfonzo replied with a chuckle. "You two were having one of your fights. And it lasted for almost four full days. And during that time, I talked with Gramps about it. Anyway, we don't have time for idle chatter. Let's get to work. [Run Wild with Destruction on your Fingertips. Usher in Pandemonium with Creation in Your Hands. Riot, Bedlam]."
With that, the first seal on Alfonzo's [Soul Armament] was released. Then, he got to work creating materials for his new residence/the venue for his and Elicia's wedding. All the while, he checked off the materials from a list he was holding in his hands.
A few hours later, exhausted of his magic power, Alfonzo returned to the house where he would be living for the next month and slipped in through the same window he used to leave. Then, he took off his clothes and crawled into bed next to Marin, where he slept for the next two hours.
Two hours later, Alfonzo was gently awakened by attender kiss on the lips.
"Ugh… I'm so tired." Alfonzo groaned as he opened his eyes.
Upon opening his eyes, he saw Marin smiling at him gently.
"I know you're tired, Fonzie." Marin said. "But you've got work to do. Besides, Wendy will be up soon, too."
"*Sigh* I know." Alfonzo said as he pushed himself into a sitting position. "Let's go take a shower and get ready for the day. Oh, and I'll write you a shopping list. Can you go to Cedar and get some groceries? You can take the Escalade."
"Sure." Marin replied. "that's why I'm here, after all. To make sure you don't have to worry about the little things."
"Thanks, Marin." Alfonzo said before leaning in for a quick kiss. "By the way, do you know who will be coming next?"
"It's supposed to be Lucy." Marin replied with a smile while waggling her eyebrows. "You make sure to take care of her, alright?"
"Of course." Alfonzo replied. "Though, I thought it was supposed to be the other way around."
Marin could not help but giggle in response. A moment later, however, she slumped her shoulders.
"*Sigh* I wish I had decided to follow you out here instead of ride with you." Marin said dejectedly. "Now, I'm gonna have to take the train back."
As Marin alluded to, Alfonzo and Elicia had taught all the girls to drive. Or tried to, anyway. Erza, after several accidents, had been forbidden from driving. So, for their most recent birthdays, Alfonzo gave each of them a magic vehicle of their own. In fact, that was the whole reason most of them agreed to visit Alfonzo in shifts while he was at Mermaid Heel. Otherwise, they would have chosen someone to stay with him for the entire month and ride back when the job was done.
"Come on, it's not so bad, right?" Alfonzo replied. "I mean, you booked a few modeling jobs with Sorcerer Weekly. So, you won't have to spend all that time on the train all in one go."
"I know." Marin replied. "Still, I'd rather drive than take the train."
"Hey! Alfonzo, Marin, it's almost time to go." Wendy said from outside the master bedroom's door. "Are you two up yet?"
Hearing that, Alfonzo and Marin exchanged glances. Then, they got out of bed.
"Yeah, we'll be ready soon." Marin replied as she and Alfonzo made their way to the bathroom to get cleaned up for the day.
