Chapter 6. Bixlow's explanation
Two hours later
"Frosin?" repeated Bixlow confused. It seemed that he was trying to remember something.
"Yes, that is his name. He said that he had known you many years ago. What is the story behind this? Would you be so kind to explain me?" asked Mirajane.
Bixlow and Evergreen have just arrived. After greeting them Mirajane immediately told them about the new guild member and asked for what she wanted to know.
"So this Frosin guy is very handsome? A living work of art, you say? The height of perfection?" asked Evergreen impatiently. Her face flushed and her eyes sparkled behind her glasses.
"Please Evergreen, be quiet for a while. So, Bixlow, what do you know about this man? Who is he? Where is he from? And the most important question… Do you know something about his past? Please tell me!" said Mirajane.
"I don't know the answers of your questions. By heaven, I have never met someone named Frosin!" declared Bixlow.
"Never, never!" repeated his dolls.
"What did you say? You have never…?" Mirajane was so shocked that she couldn't finish her words.
Silence fell on the room. Everybody stared at each other. That was really unexpected.
"Things are getting more and more interesting," whispered Cana. "Who did Natsu and his team bring to the guild?"
"Are you sure, Bixlow?" insisted Mirajane.
"Of course I'm sure! Do you think that I would have forgotten such a strange name?"
"How is this possible? It follows that Frosin has told us a lie… but for what purpose? And why is he afraid to meet you?"
"How am I supposed to know?" asked Bixlow. "I have no idea!"
"No idea, no idea!" repeated the dolls.
"But we are about to discover this," continued he. "Could you tell me where he is?"
"He and Natsu's team except for Erza get the road to the forest near to the city of Muaketta. Their mission is to destroy the gigantic beasts there - very dangerous creatures, really. The way through the forest is practically unusable because of them," explained Mirajane.
Bixlow laughed in his manner.
"Very well, I'm going to find them and see this Frosin guy. I will find out why he is so afraid of me!"
"I'm coming with you," said Fried.
"I will come too! Oh, I want to see this man! If he is only a half as handsome as you say…" exclaimed Evergreen.
"Believe me, you won't be disappointed. He isn't in the first blush of youth but his beauty is perfect… maybe too perfect," whispered Mirajane.
"Too perfect, you say? What do you mean?"
"His appearance is so ideal that it seems to be… unnatural. Yes, that's the right word. Well, it may sound strange but this is my opinion."
"Unnatural?" wondered Evergreen. "I don't understand…"
"Anyway, I also want to come with you. I feel that he has something strange about him. I wonder who he is – a friend or a foe. Something is hidden under his good-looking face," said Mirajane.
"To tell you the truth I have the same feeling, Mira," added Fried.
"What are we waiting for? Let's go! I can't wait to see this guy!" exclaimed Evergreen.
Please let me know your opinion for this chapter.
