Chapter 101: Expectations vs. Reality
Goldmine and Yajima came to Magnolia to watch Fairy Tail's magical parade and, incidentally, to visit their old friend.
Makarov had originally planned to bring them to the guild to show off his outstanding young members.
And the result...
Fortunately, the two weren't really outsiders; they knew what Fairy Tail was like.
The three of them chatted in the guild, slurped down a bowl of ramen, and then left together to visit Porlyusica.
"Hurry up and get to work! It's our fault that the guild master lost face!"
Before leaving, the guild master had entrusted Erza with overseeing the guild's repairs. As a result, Erza changed into a worker's outfit, donned a safety helmet, held a paper megaphone in her hand, and earnestly took on the role of supervisor.
Gray's shirt had gone missing again. Holding a hammer, he tapped away at the wall, complaining, "Laki, can't you just fix it directly?"
Laki waggled her finger, "No can do. Erza said I can only fix tables and chairs—I'm not allowed to mess up the construction plan."
Wakaba grumbled with a cigarette dangling from his mouth, "Why do we have to listen to her?"
Macao gave a thumbs-up, "Well said, Wakaba! Go and take down Erza!"
