421:




Chelia ought to pray Natsu will find a good fight even without flying. Lest he will kick her pretty ass when this is all over. You won't get between a dragon and its prey without consequences. Maybe he will just go and one shot kill the whole army of nameless monsters, even if such a thing makes a poor compensation for a missed chance to fight against proper mages.

I have to say the best part of the chapter was Natsu using Happy like some sort of tool to tickle Lucy's feet. That with the empty eyes made a good combo. Somehow such a meaningless action is exactly what one would do in a situation where everything went exactly opposite to the expectations and there's nothing but a dead-end in sight.
