Lucy goes back to Natsu who's standing in the woods not far away. Everlue himself pops up after the giant maid to inspect Lucy, but he rejects her on the grounds that she is ugly. Lucy, in her maid outfit, stands at the gate to the mansion when a giant maid comes up from the ground, saying that Lucy must be here due to her master’s request for maids. When asked by Lucy why he wanted the book destroyed, Kaby simply replies that he cannot allow the book to exist. They are shocked when they hear the news that the 200,000 reward has been upped to 2,000,000. Kaby explains that Everlue is the one who has the book at the moment and he says that he wants the book destroyed. The group later arrives at the house of their client, Kaby Melon. Natsu and Happy are shocked since they only meant the maid issue as a joke. While Natsu and Happy are eating, Lucy comes back in a maid outfits. As soon as they arrive in the destination, Natsu gets hungry and suggests they eat at a restaurant, but Lucy apparently has something else to do so she leaves Happy and Natsu at the restaurant. Elsewhere, Team Natsu is making their way to Shirotsume Town. Levy McGarden is disappointed with herself, but Makarov tells her that it was better that she did not take the job since the reward has been raised to 2,000,000, much to everyone's surprise. Meanwhile back at the guild, Team Shadow Gear are looking for the request about stealing a book but Mirajane informs them that Natsu already took it. Lucy realizes that she has been tricked, while Natsu reminds her that Celestial Mages never break a promise. As she reads on, she discovers that the person they are going to steal from is a perverted old man who is recruiting blonde maids. She reads the contract and discovers that they get 200,000 just for stealing a certain book. Lucy doesn't mind and takes the poster from Natsu. Lucy thinks that it is a great idea and Natsu says that he already has a job picked. Natsu then observes Lucy for a while and asks her to form a team with him. Plue makes gestures and movements that no one but Natsu understands. She then comes up with the name Plue for Nikora, which both Natsu and Happy consider weird.

Natsu thinks that it looks easy, but Lucy explains that the contract is very important and that a Celestial Spirit Mage never breaks a promise. Natsu sits down and continues drinking his tea while Lucy makes up a contract with Nikora, asking for the days which Nikora can be summoned. Natsu and Happy think that it is utterly ridiculous, but Lucy thinks that it's cute and explains that it doesn't take much energy to call out and therefore is popular as a pet. She then summons Nikora, the Canis Minor, who is a small white bear-like creature with a pointed nose. Lucy then remembers that she hasn't made a contract with her newly-bought Celestial Spirit, Nikora, and allows the two to watch her make a contract with it. She introduces each key to them while explaining the difference between the silver and the gold keys. Lucy shows him her current keys, a total of six, with three of the gold Zodiac while three of them are the ordinary silver keys. He asks her about her Celestial Spirit keys. Lucy makes a cup of tea and says that Natsu should go home, but Natsu quickly ignores this. The two further disturb the peace in Lucy's Apartment, Happy by sharpening his claws on the walls while Natsu snoops around Lucy's private papers, which gets him a kick in the face.

Natsu thinks that she is being a little harsh, but in the end doesn't seem to care much. She quickly kicks the two into the wall and begins to lecture them about common courtesy. As she enters her room, she sees Natsu Dragneel and Happy sitting on the sofa. In her new apartment, Lucy Heartfilia wakes up and begins her daily routines.
