The quarter-finals of the first round in the afternoon have now come to a successful conclusion.
Among the eight highly anticipated contestants, the one who decided the winner the fastest was obviously the team of Annie and Natsu. Before the other groups even started, Annie won directly because of her opponent's stupidity.
The one who was the slowest to decide the outcome was undoubtedly the Thunder Dragon Slayer, Laxus Dolea, the Magician of Thunder Dragon Slayer, and the two strongest candidates in the two guilds, the mysterious Mystergan. Dragon Mage Laxus Dolea and the mysterious Mystergan!
The two men fought fiercely for nearly half an hour. After the other groups decided the winner, they even played on their original field, and then fought as fiercely and happily as in the finals on that huge arena. With.
But in the end, I don’t know why...
That Mister Gang is beating his head, as if to prevent others from seeing his true face? Therefore, after his hood and cloak were damaged to a certain extent, he voluntarily surrendered and gave up the opportunity to advance to the man who started the "Fairy Tail" guild's internal strife and led to the Makarov Conference. The chief had to announce Laxus, the culprit behind this Fairy Tournament!
But no matter what he is for, anyway, now, the list of the top four has appeared, which are:
The fairy mage Anne Hastur in the first group, the fairy queen Erza Shukaretto in the second group, the demon Mirajane Strauss in the third group, and Ray in the fourth group. The dragon-slayer wizard Laxus Dolea.
The Iron Dragon Slayer Mage Gajeel Redfox and the Ice Shape Mage Gray Forpasta were both defeated by their opponents in a short period of time, and were defeated by Erza respectively. He and Mirajane, who somehow untied the knot in his heart and was able to regain his strength, were defeated one after another.
As for a certain fire dragon slayer who had a chance to fight, that guy with cherry-colored hair and who is known as the strongest fire dragon in "Fairy Tail", let's not mention it!
At this time, the four finalists were repairing in the competition preparation room. They were each sitting in a corner of the room, silently recovering their magic power, waiting for the draw results of the next round of quarter-finals.
Especially Laxus, who was very exhausted after the battle with the difficult Mist Gang. Therefore, he is currently eating some high-protein food that can replenish his magic power while silently staring at him with vigilant eyes. Not far away were Erza, Mirajane and a little girl who had no consumption at all.
'...'
Laxus knew that among the three women present, no matter which one he needed to deal with later, they were all his strong enemies, and he had to treat them with caution.
Let's not talk about Erza and Mirajane. He is very familiar with them and knows exactly what abilities or magic they have. Therefore, what he is more worried about now is undoubtedly the one in the fourth. The little girl who easily advanced to the finals without spending any magic power!
He also knows the opponent's ability, but he doesn't have any intuitive understanding of the specific combat power. Therefore, the last thing he wants now is to be drawn into a group with the opponent in the quarter-finals, because there are too many problems. Uncertainty.
"??"
(???.???)????
Little Annie, who was eating, noticed that someone seemed to be staring at her, so she looked in the direction where some kind of 'malice' came from, and at a glance she saw a line between someone's forehead and eyes. The bad guy with the lightning scar.
"!!"
(⊙?⊙)
"You guy, what are you looking at? Are you trying to make some bad idea?"
Σ(°~°|||)︴
"Anyway, no matter how bad your ideas are, you will definitely not be able to defeat them. It's better to admit defeat as soon as possible. Otherwise, if we meet later, they will definitely beat you to pieces!"
(??ˇεˇ??)
Anne recognized the other person. He was the first guy in the guild who dared to openly oppose her as the president and wanted to compete for his position as president. Therefore, she definitely would not give him a good look and glared at him fiercely. Go back and threaten.
'...'
'laugh! ! '
However, Laxus just snorted with his nose, and then turned away indifferently, and did not choose to meet the little girl at this time.
"snort!"
s(?`ヘ′?;)ゞ
"Wait and see! I'll make you look good later!"
o(′^`)o
"..."
( ̄~ ̄)Chew!
Of course, Anne was too lazy to ask for trouble if the other party didn't talk to her, so after seeing that the other party had been glared back by her, she continued to eat her snacks.
soon!
Annie, Erza, Mirajane and Laxus didn't have to wait long before they saw a frog-man referee finally walk in with a piece of paper.
"Great, you're all here."
"So……"
"I will now officially announce the grouping of the quarter-finals. Please make relevant preparations in advance?"
Seeing that the four semi-finalists were not running around in the lounge, the frog referee breathed a sigh of relief, then glanced at the players who were all looking at him, and then started to take out the paper, and read out the combination drawn by the numbers drawn by the previous four players.
"The grouping situation for the quarter-finals is as follows..."
"The Fairy Mage Anne Hastur versus the Fairy Queen Erza Shukaretto!"
"Laxus, the Thunder Dragon Slayer, versus the Demon Mirajane Strauss!"
"The above is the situation of grouping!"
Because it was just a list, the frog referee read out the contents of the paper in a few words, and then looked up at the four people sitting in one corner of the room, and found that the four people were divided into groups. After no objection was raised, he continued to add:
"The competition will be held in half an hour. Can all contestants make relevant preparations in advance?"
"Please note!"
"The competition referee team strictly prohibits the players from using any medicine during the competition. Any blatant violation will be disqualified from the competition!"
In order to avoid something that would disappoint the audience again, the frog referee emphasized and hinted at certain things to the other three people except a certain little girl. Seeing that those guys seemed to understand what he meant. After that, he nodded, posted the list on the stone wall next to the door, and then turned around and left with satisfaction.
'...'
Laxus glanced at the list posted on the wall from afar, and after confirming that his opponent later was Mirajane, he stopped looking at it and just leaned on his seat with his eyes closed to meditate. , working hard to restore the magic power.
He knows that Mirajane is an S-class mage just like him. He can absorb the soul of Satan throughout his body and transform into the posture of 'Satan'. He has extremely high speed, extremely strong fighting power and a huge amount of magic power. . Especially the extremely large amount of magic power, which was extremely disadvantageous to him who had consumed a lot of energy after the previous battle with Mist Gang. Therefore, he had to seize every minute and every second to repair and recover. Just magic.
Moreover, after the semi-finals, there will be the finals, and the schedule of the competition is very tight. If he still wants to get the guild president's throne he dreams of today and put some of his management concepts on the "Fairy Tail" guild If you want to try it out and make the guild bigger and stronger, you have to go all out.
'...'
Mirajane didn't speak either.
After taking a look at the list and the Laxus not far away opposite, she frowned with concern.
Because she was not sure of defeating Laxus!
In fact, she was not sure of winning against anyone in this room, nor was she determined to fight the other three.
She actually didn't have much thought about the position of president. She came to compete just because she didn't want the position of president to fall into the hands of some people she didn't want, such as Laxus or Ga Giroud?
And if she faced Erza in the finals, I'm afraid she would give up and surrender after just a few casual fights, right?
Of course, the premise is that she can defeat Laxus, and Erza can defeat some bad little girl who doesn't know what to say.
'...'
"..."
( ̄~ ̄)Chew!
At this time, Erza and a certain little girl were still sitting in their respective seats, not thinking too much about the freshly released semi-final list, and just minding their own business.
…
"snort!"
"Everyone! Excuse me!"
Finally, after another ten minutes, with only a few minutes left before the official start of the game, Erza glanced at a certain little girl, and finally couldn't help it anymore, stood up directly, and grabbed the He picked up a small bag from her and planned to go outside.
"!!"
Σ(°△°|||)︴
"Hey! Sister Erza, what are you going to do? The competition is about to start. If you run far away and are late, you will win directly!"
ヾ(^▽^*)))
You know, in a few minutes, the frog referees will come to invite them to the ring above to prepare. But now, Erza suddenly wants to go out, and Annie, as the opponent, must ask Asked last time.
"I……"
"I need to go to the bathroom!"
After hesitating for a moment, she tightened the bag in her hand, and after realizing that the contents were still there, Erza said coldly and firmly.
"But……"
(ー`′ー)
"Didn't you just go there once before?"
(^~^;)ゞ
Annie remembered clearly that before the frog referee came to read out the list, the other party had just been there with Mirajane, but now he was going again, so there must be something wrong.
"Oh~!"
?(*?)?!
"Now that people know about it, you must want to imitate that bad guy Natsu, secretly go to the bathroom to drink medicine, and then break other people's transformation techniques?"
(?╭╮?)
"Is that so?!"
o(*`ー′)o
The more she thought about Annie, the more she felt that her guess was correct. Otherwise, the opponent would not have gone to the bathroom again in less than half an hour before the game was about to start.
If it were anyone else, it would be fine if she went to the bathroom many times because of nervousness or something. However, Erza was said to be not even afraid of death. The guy who changes his color will be nervous, so Anne won't believe anything he says.
Therefore, there is no doubt that the other party must be determined and determined to cheat!
"I……"
"I just drank too much water, so I want to go again."
Erza looked a little nervous, obviously being hit by Annie's words.
However, she still defended stubbornly and forcefully, and at the same time she squeezed the bag in her hand tighter, as if she was afraid that Annie would suddenly jump over to check her bag.
"Anyway!"
"Annie, if you don't believe it, you can come and take a look?"
Erza's expression was very unnatural, and her tone was very different from usual. Therefore, anyone who was familiar with her, such as Mirajane who was present, and Annie, could tell at a glance that she was actually here without thinking too much. To lie, I actually didn’t want Anne to go with her at all.
"Yeah?"
(??ˇ?ˇ??)
"never mind!"
╮(╯▽╰)╭
"They won't be afraid of you even if you drink medicine, so just let you drink it, otherwise... you may really have no chance at all!"
(o?▽?o)
"go Go!"
?(*?????)????
While Anne continued to eat her food, she waved her hand generously, indicating that she, Queen Anne, had agreed to the other party's shameless behavior of 'cheating' in advance.
"..."
Although Erza wanted to turn back in anger to show her 'innocence', but...
"snort!"
"believe it or not!!"
Think about what you are best at in close combat, think about the opponent's shield that can easily block your long-range attacks, think about it, if you don't drink medicine, you will definitely not dare to get close to the opponent and may lose quickly. After that, she didn't hesitate for long. Seeing that the time was getting shorter and shorter, she felt that she could no longer delay, so she finally gritted her teeth and walked quickly to the bathroom before the referee came to urge her to go on stage.
After all, if she drinks it, she will lose face and be a little ashamed at most, but if she doesn't drink, she will really lose. She can still tell the difference between the seriousness and the seriousness.
"..."
(? ̄?? ̄??)??°
However, what Erza didn't know was that after she left, a certain little guy was like a little fox whose conspiracy had succeeded, looking at her quickly leaving with secret joy.
(…)
ε=(′?`●)))Alas
(Tibbers said that it didn't do anything just now. It was innocent and it was all forced by some bad little master...)
'...'
Of course Mirajane knew what Erza was going to do, because she also carried a thing with her that would cause debuffs after drinking it, but she did not object, but because a certain little girl did not hesitate. The ground went to make trouble and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Otherwise, I'm afraid she would really have to help Erza to temporarily stop that difficult little guy.
'...'
'snort! '
On the other hand, Laxus glanced at the woman who left quickly and said nothing more. He just continued to seize the time to rest silently.
Because he is not afraid of the little girl's transformation spell, and he doesn't need to take anti-transformation potions in advance like those idiots. He has many ways to restrain the opponent's transformation spell, and there is no need to make any preparations in advance. .
"Uh-huh!"
( ̄~ ̄)Chew!
"Good times!"
ε=(′?`*)))Ha!
At this moment, in the lounge, when Laxus was seizing the time to recover, when Mirajane was worrying about gains and losses, when Erza was hiding in the empty bathroom and drank something that Natsu had also drank in one gulp. , a certain troubled little girl continued to eat her food intently as if nothing was wrong.
