Fairy Tail: 100 Years Quest 1-11

The chapter opens with Petam inquiring about Erza's disappearance. She has managed to escape, and Petam is angry at her for breaking his spell and leaving him alive. He is also angry at the fact that the boat has stopped rocking. He wonders why they should have turned Erza into a corpse instead of letting her live. He also wonders why the ship stopped rocking, and wonders if it is because of the magic sealing the stones on the ship. When he hears the sound of the ship's engines, he leaps out of his hiding place and exclaims, "What's happening, cha ! th - thanks very much !" . He then asks laxus if he did anything to him, and she replies that he did not do anything to her. She then asks Petam if he is okay, and he says that he is. She tells him that she is a member of the guild, so she will protect him, but if she is hiding something that endangers the guild's existence, she will not be a member anymore. She asks him if he will go home for the day. He says he will, and then asks if he can cut off his feelings for her. He tells her that he has done his homework, and that she will be in his way.
