Pretty short chapter, but was still fun nevertheless. Plue was introduced, while not powerful, he does make for an interesting pet, and was a good excuse to show how celestial spirit contracts work.
That job though, why does it not surprise me that Natsu and Happy would do something so sneaky like that. Well it sure is to be interesting considering the reward for this book is 2 million, which Lucy's share of that would pay her rent for nearly a whole year. Might be a bit of a wild one, considering the warning about Duke Everlue being a pervert, and the master believing that this quest may be more trouble than its worth.
I look forward to getting my hands on the next volume of Fairy Tail, it's been a great introduction and I'm really enjoying it so far.
