Chapter 134: Side Quest – Rainbow Cherry Blossoms (1)

~Silva K. POV~

[November 13, X784]

Come on Cursed Chest give me something good. Come on give me the good shit.

[Ding!]

[You have chosen Cursed Box!]

I am picking the Cursed Box from my previous reward from the opening of the small box revealed to be… dagger.

A bad one in fact.

The fuck?

It is an iridescent and jagged dagger that is thin, brittle, and blunt. It's effectively nonexistent in its capacity as a weapon, comparable to that of a regular dagger at most, and it would not be suitable for even killing a single person.

Raising an eyebrow at this I was confused why I would need this, but I have been proven wrong before with other items.

Time to check this reward and the Icy Crystal Charm from Gray's quest.

<Observe >.

----

Item: Icy Crystal Charm

Rarity Item: C

Type: Lacrima

Description: Raises the STR and AGI of the user by 25 when equipped. Increases damage dealt by 15% and increases MP Cost by 20%.

Item: All Spells Must Be Broken – Rule Breaker

Rarity Item: SSS

Type: Dagger

Description: All Spells Must Be Broken – Rule Breaker is a weapon that materializes and embodies the Divinity of the Witch of Betrayal. Greatly differing from other Noble Phantasms, the conceptual ritual tool's unique ability is that it is the ultimate anti-magic Noble Phantasm capable of dispelling and destroying any kind of magecraft, an effect suitable to the Noble Phantasm that is a manifestation of Caster's nature as the "Witch of Betrayal".

A dagger that nullifies all effects created by magecraft, despite whether such an effect is an enchantment, a relationship formed through contact, or even life created through magical energy. Once it encounters the ensorcelled item or person, enchantments, connections bounded through contracts, and creatures created and maintained by magical energy, they will all be returned to their original components in a state "before they were made."

Contracts will be wiped clean and those with life will immediately cease to exist. There is a limit to what it can dispel, artifacts on the rank of Noble Phantasms will never be returned to their original state no matter how low their rank.

Oh…

Putting that away Rule Breaker sounds like something I would need in the future but what remains to be seen.

Might even break Mavis from her curse even!

My eyes widen at the idea but also the danger of even undoing her curse. The God of Life and Death would be pissed and probably just recast it again or worse...

Better to shelve that solution for later or test it on Zeref to see if he suffers a worse fate than I do if I tried...

At least I have a solution for one future problem, let's hope I find another alternative.

Shaking my head, I began to focus on creating my next Replica to build holding in my hand the Lacrima that held the Heart of the Poison Dragon King thinking I could gain the power of poisons…

But then I shook my head.

Not worth it.

The power of a Dragon Slayer Magic is cool and all but the horrible drawbacks are another matter to consider.

Thus, I have decided on which Class I want to create using my Replica…

Berserker it is.

Would be a very bad thing to face off against him.

Berserker will come in handy in the future. Taking this into account I began to create my Berserker with the intention of having him take the rest of the Character Lacrima's I have on hand.

Working my way to creating Berserker I made sure to have some spare clothing – wait.

I need to get some Electric Proof enchantment but otherwise, I seem to have a great asset to have to place on my speedy Berserker the worst kind.

The ones that hit hard and easily avoid attacks.

Wouldn't be a good Berserker if he didn't have the speed. While working on it I began to equip him with the Character Lacrima's seeing how powerful or fast his AGI stats are.

Probably give Lancer's Gajeel Character Lacrima to Assassin considering the debuff paralysis effects would work best in return for the Icy Crystal Charm.

Berserker's Status.

Good.

Maybe it would be best to hand Berserker Crushing King and Third Arm Sash for him to have some other gear to make him extremely dangerous with lightning items.

It's best to have contingency plans for such situations.

Preparing to get some clothes I exit out of the apartment room accidentally slamming into someone, "Oouf! Owie…"

Pausing recognizing the voice I looked to see Wendy whom I knocked down helping her up quickly apologizing to her in a surprised tone, "Oh shoot! Sorry for knocking you down like that Wendy! But what are you doing here?"

She gets her head on straight as her guardian feline fatale Carla explains pouting at my direction of the news, "Why good sir how rude to bump into Wendy like that! We were merely finishing healing Lucy from her cold taking on yesterday's request."

Raising an eyebrow at this I asked still confused why she needed to be healed rather than let nature take her course to heal her naturally, "Okay? Still, doesn't explain why she needed Wendy to heal Lucy regularly with Magic?"

Carla raised an eyebrow at me as Wendy asked somewhat surprising me of the reason confusion in her tone, "What? Mister Knights, aren't you participating in the Rainbow Cherry Blossoms? Or the bingo game?"

She had me at a bingo game.

But then I remembered something in my mind the anime episode of this occurring that Lucy missed out heading towards her room, "Oh, shoot I didn't know that was today! Don't worry I'll take care of Lucy's cold I'll meet everyone at the bingo event!!"

*Thud*

Wendy and Carla merely shrugged as we went our ways. I headed towards Lucy's apartment in her bed sick in pink pajamas I apologized to her for barging inside, "Sorry in advance for barging in but I heard you were too sick to join this year's Rainbow Sakura's event. Came as soon as I heard you were sick by the cold!"

Lucy's eyes woke up groggily trying to get me to leave enjoying the event without getting me sick in a concerned tone, "Ugh… Silva? Great now everyone can get in. Achoo…!! Go away... I don't need you catching my cold... Achoo!!!"

Sneezing getting the cold I looked at her getting a salve I created just for this situation I created in my spare time grinding my Potion making.

<Observe >.

----

Item: Cure

Rarity Item: B

Type: Small Jar

Description: Created by Doctor Knights using the Hakobe ice droplets healing properties that can cure the majority type of viruses and colds. But most importantly helps heighten the consumer white cells to improve against diseases.

Never underestimate the power of medicine or drugs.

It's why we have legalized drug dealers known as Pharmacist people…

Or in this world terms Potion Maker but that's beside the point – wait…

Would that make me a quack doctor or quack potion crafter?

Figure out the terminology or slang later.

Gotta help a friend first.

Handing her the cure Lucy looked at my concoction with wary eyes as I explained to her what it can do before tapping off the top to drink it, "Well… it can't help to at least try right? This might hopefully get me better for seeing the Rainbow Cherry Blossoms. Bottoms up… gulp. Ah! Very cold…!!"

*Gulp*

Drinking the cure down her throat she shivered slightly but then small steams emitted from her as her eyes widened in surprise sweating a bit showing her underwear causing me to blush.

But when it was done Lucy noticed her complexion with surprise in her voice and happiness as she yelled, "Ah!! My cold is gone! And I feel a million times better thanks Silva I owe ya big time for this!!"

*Boing*

Gulp…

I can feel her melons pressing onto me causing me to blush as she gives me a peaceful sign causing me to freeze at her words in a confident tone heading towards the shower, "You only get that freebie looking at me once Silva. I really wanted to see this year's Rainbow Cherry Blossoms… so thanks. I get to enjoy this with friends."

I merely stood up getting ready to wait for her outside her apartment room being a gentleman to her, "In that case, I'll wait outside your apartment room. After all it's rude to keep a lady in waiting."

I heard her snort followed by a soft laugh replying to me in a kind tone, "Tch. How gentleman of you trickster but it's better to surprise everyone. But you deserve a reward though…"

*Chew*

Rolling my eyes as I began to open the door, I felt a small tap before Lucy gave me a surprise kiss on the cheek with a playful smile on her face, "There. Every guy would want a kiss from a cute girl, right? I'll be back soon then we can enjoy the bingo event!"

Lucy turned to take a shower as I rubbed my cheek slowly somewhat surprised getting kissed by a cutie.

Smiling contently at this getting a kiss isn't so bad from a cute girl. Guess I'm going to enjoy this game of bingo and enjoy the time I have with them.

[Ding!]

[Quest is generated!]

Pressing accept I couldn't help that this would be a cinch for me to complete this simple side quest.
