Newton put on the ugly mask again, accompanied by an already dressed suit of armor, which he decided to call Puppeteer. Of course, it was equipped with the artificial intelligence Ginger. As for whether Influence would help Reby pass her exam, even if Newton combined all the armors he had at hand, they wouldn't account for even thirty percent of Ginger's memory.
"Are you really going?"
Miraj was still quite worried about Newton because this time, none of them could accompany him; he would have to rely solely on himself. As for the combat capability of Ginger and the armor, without seeing any impressive achievements from the armor, Miraj really didn't have much faith in its fighting ability. Especially since there was someone in the Guild who was skilled at using armor. Erza's armor required a person to control it, and now having an automated suit of armor—though there were indeed things like Magical Puppets here—those things weren't particularly strong in combat.
"How about I go with you instead?"
Miraj had made up her mind; if it came down to it, she would give up being an examiner. She had to ensure her man's safety.
"Trust me, it's going to be fine."
Newton reached out and gently stroked Miraj's cheek.
"Although my combat power might not be that strong, don't forget that I'm very good at escaping. I will definitely treat my life as the most precious thing. I know there are people waiting for me at home. Don't worry; when I come back, I'll give you the answer to that question, okay?"
Miraj nodded lightly. She knew she couldn't stop this man's determination. All she could do was silently pray for his safe return as she adjusted his collar.
"Alright then, take care on your way. I'll consider this hurdle passed for you; just do your best with Erza."
"Mm..."
Newton felt a bit awkward and then arrived at Erza's room door, gently knocking on it.
"Mira? Is it time for dinner?"
"It's me, Newton."
"Clatter!"
A rather unsettling noise immediately erupted from inside the room.
"Are you alright? I'm coming in..."
Fearing something had happened, Newton pushed the door open and walked in, only to find that Erza was nowhere to be seen, her lower half buried under a pile of armor.
Newton chuckled in disbelief as he reached out to pull the other person out from the pile of armor.
"What happened? Why are you in such a mess?"
"N-nothing..."
Erza hesitated for a moment before asking, "Shouldn't you be in Mira's room?"
"But you just asked if it was Mira..."
Newton found it amusing; it was rare to see Lady Queen in such an adorable state.
"I..."
Erza realized her mistake and awkwardly scratched her head, quickly changing the subject. "By the way, I heard you're not planning to be an examiner this time?"
"No, I just plan to let the armor fight in my place. I'm preparing to pay a visit to the Dark Guild."
Newton began tidying up the room, but soon after, he pulled out a piece of cloth from the pile of armor. Well, no need to go into detail about what kind of cloth it was; Erza saw it and immediately snatched it from Newton's hands, her face turning bright red as she tried to push him away.
"Alright, alright, stop pushing! I'll help you clean up..."
"No, no, it's fine! I can handle it myself!"
"I'm leaving soon. Aren't you going to order something?"
Newton's words caught Erza off guard. But just that moment of hesitation allowed Newton to slip past her and start cleaning up.
Seeing this, Erza had no choice but to hurriedly join him in tidying up, working even faster than Newton and trying her best to keep her personal belongings from being seen too much.
"Is it about the Dark Guild?"
Erza asked while tidying up.
"Yes, so I might not be at the Guild for a while. During the exam, you all take care of yourselves," Newton instructed.
"Don't worry, it's not our first exam. But what about you? Make sure to keep your guard up over at the Dark Guild," Erza replied.
"Aren't you worried about my safety?" Newton asked, curious.
"Of course not. I have faith in you," Erza said confidently, which caught Newton off guard. He awkwardly rubbed his nose.
"You really do have faith in me. But don't worry, I'll try to get back in time to see if I can make it to the S-Class celebration."
"Then you better hurry. This time, it should mainly be about traveling. If the exams are on the island, it will probably only take two or three days at most."
"Alright, then... when I come back... will you marry me?" Newton suddenly changed the subject.
Erza froze for a moment, her body trembling as her armor clinked together with a sound like ping pong balls.
"I-I-I-I..."
Erza stuttered again.
Newton gently wrapped his arms around Erza from behind and softly asked, "Give me a chance, okay?"
"I..."
Erza fell silent for a moment.
"I'm so foolish. I can't do housework; all I know is how to fight. I'm violent, not as gentle as Mira, and..."
Newton smiled as he turned Erza towards him and sealed her lips with his own. Erza's eyes widened in surprise, and she pushed against him again, but this time her hands felt weak. It was as if all her strength had drained away, her entire weight resting against Newton. Her breathing grew heavy, her gaze became hazy, and instead of pushing him away, she wrapped her arms around him, and they began to kiss passionately.
According to jokes online, when kissing, a guy's hands tend to wander. Newton, being a man, started to explore as well. However, this made Erza snap back to reality; she swiftly threw Newton out of the window.
"Crash! Clatter!"
Newton landed in a pile of trash in the alley, a banana peel perched on his head.
"This... I really didn't touch anything..."
Newton wasn't going to play innocent; after all, Erza was always clad in armor. What could he possibly touch? It was just the hard armor. Even during their embrace and kiss, he hadn't felt much, but now he could feel something pressing uncomfortably against his chest.
"Well, with that settled, there's nothing more to it. Alright then, let's wrap this up quickly."
