Well, it's true! even Lucy couldn't understand how Natsu and Happy could always infiltrate carelessly and arbitrarily, even if it's locked tightly.

I want to change the apartment! but I'm not sure I can find this apartment as cheap and as good as this. Lucy cried in her heart.

"And then... who are you exactly?" Lucy asks with a helpless tone.

"Oh right, how can I forget to introduce myself. My name is Nathan, nice to meet you Lucy-san!" he bows introducing himself.

"Hmm... Nathan...?" Lucy nodded doubtfully as she rather felt that she had heard that name before but either way she didn't remember anything.

Nathan noticed the doubt in the expression Lucy showed, don't tell me he knows my name! Well, she's from Heartfilia Konzern after all, one of the wealthiest and most recognizable companies in the Kingdom of Fiore.

Her father, Jude Heartfilia sometimes visited the palace to do some business with his elder sister, the Queen. His elder sister also said that uncle Jude and Lucy also came on his 5th birthday. Unfortunately, Nathan had no chance to meet this female main character.

"Emh... actually I'm... prince... yeah I'm a prince you know!" the hesitation showed when trying to acknowledge his identity suddenly turned into a super smug face as clenching his palms in the chest, he smiled proudly and tried to continue, "I'm Nathan E. F..."

Before he finished showing off her true identity, Lucy, who saw his sudden turned attitude to the point she couldn't bear any more, and immediately cut off his pain introduction,

"Alright, alright you are a prince... then, why did you come to my apartment? If I don't hear wrong, you want to join Fairy Tail?" she raised an eyebrow with a lazy tone.

"Ugh... yeah" see! no one will believe that he is really a prince! he that felt he is only embarrassed himself. Rather not say that anymore.

"Then you come to me and hope to get a recommendation to join Fairy Tail through me?" she asked again.

"Yeah..."

"You sure, you're pretty confident, listen to me boy! to join Fairy Tail, a mage must have the charisma, beauty, and strength like me, and then, you are just a runny boy who still drinks milk, so let this big sister give you the fare to go home to your mommy!" Lucy pointed at Nathan as if scolding a little bad boy to go home immediately.

Lucy's superficial attitude has been he expected, this is actually the uniqueness of this woman.

Lucy takes exceptional pride in her appearance and is very confident in her sex appeal, often exuding a certain amount of vanity when she trying to show off herself.

Despite this superficial attitude, she is a clever, kind and genuinely caring person. Of course, Nathan also had things that made her impossible for her to refuse his little request.

"What about this?" Nathan curved smiled as his hand pulled out a Gold Key.

"This... Golden Zodiac Key!!!" Lucy had unwittingly held the gold key from Nathan's hand.

Lucy's magic is Celestial Spirit Magic it is a type of magic which the user summons Celestial Spirit by opening their gate through the use of Celestial Spirit Gate Keys.

These keys are separated into two classes, the more common Silver Keys and the rarer Gold Keys.

Naturally, every key spirit is precious to Lucy, but for her, the Gold Key is the real treasure.

The Golden Key is also referred to as the 12 Golden Zodiac Keys, of which there are only twelve keys throughout the world, each of them being related to a specific astrological sign and has an exceptional ability.

So far, Lucy only has three of the 12 Golden Zodiac Keys, which are...

Gate of the Water Bearer Key: Summoned the Water Bearer, Aquarius.

Gate of the Golden Bull Key: Summons the Golden Bull, Taurus.

Gate of the Giant Crab Key: Summons the Giant Crab, Cancer.

Which all three of them are the gold keys of the legacy of her deceased beloved mother.

"This is Virgo's Key? how can it be in your hands?" Lucy gave a strange expression on her face as she looked at the young man who pulled out this key.

Gate of the Maiden Key, Virgo's owner is the Duke of Everlue, to think it end up in the hand of this young brat.

"Duke Everlue was arrested by Magic Council's soldiers, so the contract with Celestial Spirit was automatically terminated. And then I was just a wanderer who accidentally passed in front of his house and accidentally found this key lying on the ground" Nathan explained nonchalantly.

What a great accidental! Lucy pouted enviously in her mind.

"That key is yours as long as you recommend me to Fairy Tail" Nathan smiled lightly.

Another reason was that he was not a Celestial Spirit mage, so that key was totally useless to him.

"Really? then come with me to the guild now!"

As she was too excited that even changing clothes was done in just a blink of an eye.

So fast! Nathan dumbfounded as his hand was dragged straight out of the room by Lucy.

...

Fairy Tail was located in the south of the town not far from the coast, and the guild was situated about 4-5 kilometers up the Magnolia central path.

Fairy Tail has existed for at least several decades but has only grown to its current prominence and strength in the last few years and was composed of roughly 100 members.

In spite of the guild's immense reputation and fame, becoming a member of Fairy Tail requires little more than the simple approval of the Guild Master, regardless of magical capabilities, former allegiances or the other members' opinion.

After fifteen minutes Nathan was being dragged by Lucy without stopping, they finally arrived in front of the guild.

"We arrived" Lucy introduced the Fairy Tail's headquarter with an exceptional pride.

Meanwhile, Nathan lit up his eyes wide as he was amazed unbelievably that he really stood in front of the Fairy Tail guild.

Fairy Tail's headquarters resided in an imposing building consisting of three floors and incorporating several architectonic styles: it took on a shape reminiscent of a pagoda, with each floor being smaller than the one below it and sitting on the latter's roof. The roofs also bore great resemblance to those of real pagoda.

The roof below the one with the dome, the middle one, housed a large banner with Fairy Tail's symbol on it, held up by a pair of vertical poles.

The building's large entrance was again Arabian in design, with its shape being reminiscent of that of the dome on the summit, and above it was the guild's name of "Fairy Tail", topped by a protruding, stylized heart shape and flanked by a pair of carved fairies.

"So this is the real Fairy Tail guild" Nathan smile brightly.

His smile shined like the sun's rays in the sky, so bright as brightening his perfectly aligned teeth.

"Lets come in! anyway, Don't be surprised when you enter!" Lucy gently guided Nathan while reminding him.
