Chapter 692: 'Witch's Sin': Daily Intrigue
Tie? ?
After all this big fight, you said it ended in a draw? ?
This result made the audience very unhappy.
In their view, whether it was Jura defeating the new generation of Natsu and Cana and defending the glory of the "Holy Ten", or Natsu and Cana defeating Jura and announcing the arrival of a new era, it was all very shocking, enough to brag about and become a topic of conversation after dinner for the next year.
But it was a draw without a winner... Even though the game was equally exciting, it couldn't satisfy the curiosity of these magicians and magic enthusiasts about 'who is stronger and who is weaker'.
However, no matter how difficult it is to accept, they have to accept it because the facts are already in front of them. The competition cannot go into overtime, and it is impossible for them to play again.
Fortunately, the battle in which the new era wizards defeated the old era wizards was not limited to today. The two battles yesterday were actually enough, and there will be opportunities tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, so the audience quickly recovered from the disappointment of a draw.
There was no win or loss, which meant that the points of Jura, Tobi, Natsu, and Cana were not deprived.
After a short break, the organizers quickly repaired the arena and prepared for the last game of the day.
Duel: Witch's Sin VS Raven's Tail
Fighting parties: Mark Beth, Eric VS Brian, Jerome
The moment they saw the people coming out, the people from 'Witch's Sin' fell into a brief silence.
"This is the real farewell to the battles of the past!"
Markbeth speculated with interest: "Could it be that the organizers felt that the previous 'hunt' did not allow us to have a good victory, so they are taking this opportunity to make up for it?"
Eric smiled contemptuously: "Who knows? They say the players are randomly selected, but so far, the duel has never been repeated, so the players may have been chosen by the organizers themselves."
"If that's the case, then it makes sense to choose us, right?"
"Let the people who were once the 'Six Demon Generals' punish themselves? It seems that the people who arranged the troops on the side have a bad taste... By the way, I have only felt this feeling from Kira!"
The air suddenly became quiet.
Jellal on the side didn't understand what was going on, so he just stopped the conversation and said calmly: "We can just say these things among ourselves, but don't say them in front of Kira, that guy holds a grudge very hard..."
When Gerard finished speaking, he realized that the faces of the people in front of him were different, and he couldn't help but ask curiously, "What's wrong?"
Several people shook their heads frantically: "Nothing...Nothing...It's just that we don't think Kira holds a grudge!"
"That's right...Kira is so good! He's handsome, gentle, has a rich family, and is very powerful. He's simply the ideal boyfriend!"
"It was thanks to him that we were able to escape from the 'Six Demon Generals' and the 'Devil 's Heart' and sign the 'Exoneration Contract' with the royal family. It was because of the 'Witch's Sin' that we were able to reunite with our brothers and sisters..."
"Kira also gave me an angel summoned beast, he is really talented and beautiful!!"
"He also helped me cure Jinana, I will be grateful to him for the rest of my life!!"
"Wendy wrote to me that Kilasan often supports children in the orphanage and is a very kind person!"
"If Fairy Tail hadn't shown mercy, our seven followers would have been completely destroyed on Tenrou Island. We are still alive today thanks to his mercy..."
The more Gerald listened, the more puzzled he became. "But don't you always say bad things about him? Greedy, lustful, vindictive, arrogant, narcissistic, bad taste, childish?"
“Nonsense!!”
The faces of several people suddenly changed and they shouted at the same time, which made Gerard confused.
After hesitating for a while, Gerard was still unwilling to give up and asked carefully, "What nonsense are you talking about? Aren't you the ones who said he 'doesn't hold a grudge because he took revenge on the spot', 'hasn't had a relationship at the age of 20', and 'spends at least 8 hours a day thinking about making money and playing tricks on people'?"
"Sono, don't you often complain that the 'angel' Kira made for you isn't pretty enough?"
"Urutia, don't you complain every day about him collecting debts from you and making you work for nothing? And because you are often away, Melty is always distracted from her work;"
"Eric and Lisa complained the most, right? You two were the ones who said most of what we said just now..."
Gerard found that the more he spoke, the uglier the faces of the people in front of him became, just like babies who made mistakes and were afraid of being scolded by their parents.
"What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?"
The few of them still did not answer, but just lowered their heads slightly, their hands and feet trembling, and they looked terrified.
Seeing this, Jellal's mouth curled up slightly, and under his hood, he revealed a satisfied, sinister and cunning little white face: "Haha... If nothing unexpected happens, Kira will stand behind right?"
"These guys just deliberately tricked me into saying bad things about Kira, so that I can get beaten up by him! What a pity, you guys have tricked me so many times before, I've seen through this little trick! Now I'll tell you what you usually say in the guild, and see who gets beaten up!"
Feeling that he had acted enough, Jellal slowly turned around, trying to pretend that he had accidentally discovered Kira.
However, when he turned around, the hidden smile and pretended doubt froze on his face, because there was no one behind him!
"Eh? That's not right! Where's Kira? Could it be that there was no one here from the beginning? ? Then why were they so panicked just now?"
When Gerard turned around again and wanted to ask everyone the reason, he saw that everyone was looking at him with contempt. The look was as if they were looking at a pile of rotten garbage, or cockroaches feeding on garbage.
"Jellal, I didn't expect you to be this kind of person!"
"Are you dumbfounded? Are you disappointed? You must have thought Kira was behind you just now! That kind of pretentious acting is really funny!"
"Comparing your acting skills with us, do you think you are also a 'holy ten' in this aspect?"
"I never thought that you wouldn't help cover up the situation, but your first reaction was to add insult to injury. Your behavior really disappoints us. We regarded you as our leader, but you treated us like this!!"
"Melty-chan, you must remember that the more handsome a man is, the more sinister he is and the more likely he is to lie and deceive others! Look, it's clear from the first test."
Lisa, Sorono and others laughed at Jellal's cleverness and sinister heart and did not give him any face at all.
The more they talked, the uglier Gerard's face became. He now understood: from the very beginning, these guys had pretended to have those strange looks on their faces, with the purpose of setting a trap for him, and then laughing at him cruelly at this time!
"They teamed up again to trick me, and this time they brought a little kid like Melty with them. It's really... too insidious!"
At the moment, Gerard was in a very unhappy mood because he had lost again in this battle of wits and courage, which meant that he would have to treat them to another big meal later.
That's right, after two years of getting along, this kind of trick of cheating each other has become a daily routine in "Witch's Sin".
'The one who gets tricked gets to eat' has become their rule, and Jellal, the seemingly smart leader, has always been the one who suffers the most.
"Alright, alright...I'm wrong this time. I shouldn't have tricked you guys, okay?"
"Huh! Now you know you're wrong? What's wrong with you?"
"I shouldn't kick someone when he's down!"
Some people still felt that this was not enough and continued to ask, "What about those bad things that were said about Kira?"
Gerard's face was dark, and he said stiffly: "It has nothing to do with you, it's all my fault, okay?"
As soon as the words fell, they all restrained their proud attitude and instantly returned to their previous trembling appearance.
"You heard it, didn't you, Kira? Jellal has already admitted that he was the one who said those bad things! It has nothing to do with us!!"
"Yes, I heard it clearly!"
Hearing this extremely familiar voice, Gerard was completely stunned. His entire brain went blank and he stood there blankly, not knowing what was happening.
It was not until a familiar hand was placed on his shoulder that he finally realized that he had been tricked by these people again.
It turns out that their previous expressions were not fake, but Kira was really behind me...
Jellal instantly broke out in a cold sweat.
Three minutes later, everyone in the "Witch's Sin" was covered in bruises, even Melty was no exception.
Kira clapped his hands, feeling relieved. "I told you guys to learn something good every day. You just scheme and plot, and you've corrupted the children!"
"We are wizards. If there is a problem, we should just rush forward. Why would we be so cunning?"
"Alright, Kira!"
Jellal had a black eye and coughed awkwardly, "Let's get back to business. What brought you here specifically for?"
"No, nothing."
Kira shook his head and said, "I'm just worried that Markbeth and Eric can't beat Brian, so I came here to cheer you up."
Last night, people from 'Witch's Sin' and 'Fairy Tail' had a party.
After three rounds of drinks, the group talked about "The Tail of the Crow" and Brian. As a result, this damn Eric, maybe because he was drunk and his mind was not clear, actually started to plant flags crazily.
[“If I meet Brian in this competition, I will end my relationship with him once and for all.”]
[“The princess promised us that the three-year labor reform would be reduced to two years. After the Great Magic Fighting Exercise is over, we will be free. Then we will go to Magnolia and marry Jinana.”]
【……】
"I just talked about it last night, and it's matched today. How can I not be anxious?"
Bang!
Kira slapped Eric and scolded him angrily: "Just tell me, are you rude? You are usually quite smart, why are you so stupid at a time like this..."
Everyone present knew that Kira had always been superstitious about Murphy's Law and death flags , and they were no longer surprised by his behavior.
"Alright, alright...if you keep hitting me, I'm going to be beaten into a fool..." Everyone rushed forward to stop Kira's violence. Although they knew he was showing concern, Eric's face was really swollen.
The short but joyful time passed quickly, the 10-minute halftime break ended, and the organizers completed the repairs of the arena.
"The fourth double-edged duel is about to begin. Please enter the venue as soon as possible!!"
"The fourth game..."
Listening to the broadcast that was constantly looping in the venue, the wizards of "Witch's Sin" also spared no effort to cheer for their two companions.
"We must win!! Markbeth, Eric!!"
"Ginana is watching you over there, so remember to show your most handsome side! By the way, there are a lot of people in the guild chasing after her recently!!"
“Hey, hey… How can you still be cool after you’ve slapped her in the face like this?! Also, remember to tell me the information of those who harassed her after I’m done!!”
Kira simply ignored the second half of the sentence: "You don't understand this. The key is to have 'love'! Right, Richard?"
"Of course! Love is the most beautiful thing in the world..."
Ding ding ding!!!
"The fourth double duel!"
"'Crow's Tail' Brian and Jerome VS 'Witch's Sin' Macbeth and Eric!!"
"Officially begins!!"
