Chapter 703: The Guilds Finally Meet! Fairy Tail VS Emperor's Shield!!
The fourth day of the Great Demon Fighting Martial Arts Show.
The first double duel, 'Snake Princess Scale' versus 'Crow's Tail'.
This game taught the audience a lesson: If you want to last until the end of the game, luck is important, and a sufficient number of high-level wizards are also important.
Because the remaining two people of "Crow's Tail" were Breya who used the magic of clones, and Narubudingku who was beaten to a pulp on the second day.
Although their strength is not very strong, it is enough to deal with ordinary magicians.
Coincidentally, there were no powerful people available for the "Scale of the Snake Princess". The ones who went into battle were Shirley and a wizard Kira didn't know. Both of them were not very strong and were quickly defeated.
The defeat of 'Scales of the Snake Princess' has served as a wake-up call to many guilds, and they need to hurry up and cultivate the guild's high-end combat power, otherwise they may not be able to survive until the end of next year's Grand Demon Fighting Exercise.
In addition, the misstep of the former second magic guild of the Kingdom of Fiore made the direction of the entire game even more confusing.
You know, up to now no guild has been defeated by the 'Tail of the Crow '. When the duel list came out, all the viewers thought that they would stop here. Unexpectedly, they could counterattack successfully in the end, and the target was a wizard of the level of 'Scale of the Snake Princess'.
I also have a clearer understanding of the strength of 'Crow's Tail'.
Although they have never won, as long as they think carefully about who they faced before, they will know that this guild is really not weak, it's just that others are stronger!
The second match was between 'Witch's Sin' Richard and Sawyer VS 'Four-Headed Hounds' Volek and Nobali.
The former won easily, and Sawyer even became the person with the highest score in "Witch's Sin", 5 points higher than Urrutia, and he was extremely proud.
In the third match, the 'Blue Pegasus' Ichiya and Erya teamed up to fight against the 'Heart of the Dragon' Decizu and Nicol.
Both sides are a combination of humans + transcendents, one side is an isomorph from another world, and the other side is two second-generation dragon slayers. Whether this combination is strong or not is another matter, but it is definitely eye-catching.
This confrontation was also full of drama.
'Blue Pegasus' was just like 'Crow's Tail', with only two people left able to fight, which put the pressure of the entire game on them. After all, it would be too embarrassing for them if they were eliminated before 'Crow's Tail'.
And just when Yiye was patting his chest and vowing that Erye had the same fighting power as himself, he was knocked down by the opponent with a roar, shocking everyone.
The next moment, Yi Ye exploded for his best friend, inhaled the "scent of power", and knocked out a man and a cat on the opposite side with one punch.
Just when everyone thought that the 'Blue Pegasus' had won, he was struck by Dicezu's magic one night. The germs took away his ability to continue fighting, and he finally fell powerlessly beside his teammates.
In desperation, the judges could only declare the two sides a tie, and because both had lost their ability to fight, they were all eliminated.
At this point, the score of 'Blue Pegasus' was reset to zero, becoming the first guild to be eliminated by all its members!
"The following is the final double-edged battle of the day. The two sides fighting are..."
"Kira Hoplite and Erza Shukalet from 'Fairy Tail'!!"
"And the 'Emperor's Shield' Jacob and Neinhart!!"
“Finally I’ve waited until this day!”
Erza raised her eyelids, and excitement flashed in her eyes, not only because her opponents were two powerful Twelve Shields, but also because her teammate was Kira, the most stable member of the guild.
From childhood to adulthood, Erza and Killer have had many sparring matches, but rarely have they fought side by side.
The reason is that Kira basically doesn't need teammates no matter what mission he is doing; and Erza is also an independent and strong woman with her own opinions and ideas. It is really difficult for these two people to get together.
In Kira's memory, he only took Erza on a few missions when she first came to the guild. After that, when Erza was able to work independently, she never bothered him again.
In fact, not only Erza, but also Gray, Mira and others were led by Kira when they first arrived at Fairy Tail. This is why he has always been the big brother of the younger generation of the guild.
"This is a showdown between two guilds that have maintained an undefeated record from start to finish. This is such a wonderful battle. It should be able to make up for the negative reviews of the previous competition..."
“I think that’s what the organizers think, right?”
Kira muttered to himself as he looked at the duel list on the crystal screen.
"Isn't this good? We'll have to face each other sooner or later anyway!"
Laxus leaned against a stone pillar, crossed his arms, and acted cool to the wind, "I really want to fight with them, but unfortunately I didn't get a match."
"You guy... don't you think you've pretended enough?"
"Huh? What nonsense are you talking about??"
Kira didn't continue arguing with Laxus. He waved to Erza and walked towards the arena: "Let's go, Erza! Let's try our best today and try to blow up the entire arena to show everyone the true strength of our guild!"
Erza obviously hesitated after hearing this: "Uh... to show strength or something, it seems that there is no need to blow up the arena?? President, what do you think?"
Makarov narrowed his eyes: "This is not Magnolia!! You two should be careful when you attack!"
"I understand!" Erza nodded as if she understood something.
That is to say, this is not Magnolia, so it doesn't matter how we fight, right?
In the arena, Kira, Erza, Jacob, and Neinhart stood facing each other.
"Hey, this girl is Lady Irene..."
Neinhart nudged Jacob beside him with his elbow, looked at Erza's whole body with gossipy eyes, and said in a low voice.
He was wearing green armor, with purple bangs covering the right half of his face. His appearance could almost be described as shifty, and his temperament revealed an undisguised middle school mentality and a concealed arrogance.
A chuunibyou personality wouldn't offend anyone, so there was no need to hide it, but if he continued to be as arrogant as before in front of the two people in front of him, Neinhart knew that things would not end well for him.
Both of them were present at the naval battle the day before yesterday and the hunting , so they are aware of Kira and Erza's strength.
"As expected of Lady Irene's daughter, she is so powerful at such a young age. She may be stronger than us in the future! As for the other young man praised by His Majesty the Emperor and Lord Auguste, the fact that he killed Dimalia in an instant yesterday is enough to make us wary!"
Jacob nodded silently. He knew this match was not going to be easy, but since he was chosen, there was nothing he could do. He had to go for it: "We fight one each?"
"Okay!" Neinhart couldn't wait to agree to his teammate's proposal, "I'll just fight this girl named Erza!"
"Um??"
Jacob suddenly looked up, glanced at Neinhart inexplicably, and said softly: "... whatever you want."
With his perfect eyesight, Jacob could see the strength and personality traits of Kira and Erza at a glance.
'Of the two people in front of us, the boy named Kira is indeed stronger, and may be stronger than all of us combined. He has the strength of Auguste or Irene. But from his performance in the past two days and the descriptions of Brandi and others, we can tell that his personality is a little calmer than the girl! '
"Although the girl named Erza is weaker, she is obviously the kind of person who does things meticulously, takes fighting extremely seriously, and has a strong desire to win! Once she starts fighting, she may not be able to stop!! And everyone knows that she is the daughter of Lady Irene, who would dare to really use heavy hands on her? ! "
Jacob felt that Neinhart either wanted to die, or his head was damaged by someone at some point...
"Come to think of it, I have had some contact with your 'Fairy Tail' before!"
At this moment, Neinhart suddenly said, "You went to the Albares Empire last year, right? At that time, that brat who used lightning was very arrogant!"
Looking at his gnashing teeth and eyes full of hatred, Jacob was sure that his head was really broken by someone, and it was the boy with thunder and lightning he mentioned.
"Hmm? Oh, come to think of it, Laxus did say that you were defeated by him, right?"
Erza spoke directly, not taking the fact that the other party was 'shifting hatred towards her' to heart.
"hateful……"
Neinhart was even more angry, but he still said patiently, "I originally wanted to get my place back in this competition, but I didn't expect to face him, but you... If I'm not mistaken, he should be the second strongest in this team, right?"
"No, I'm second!" Erza's eyes turned cold.
"Huh?"
Neinhart suddenly felt confused, and subconsciously retorted, "That's not right. Judging from the magic power, that person is stronger..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Neinhart saw Erza's aura in front of him suddenly change. She became full of fighting spirit, as if she had heard something very unpleasant.
That kind of coldness reminded him of Irene. The word "me" got stuck in his throat and he was stunned and unable to utter a word.
Kira: “…”
Jacob: “…”
This person... is he really out of his mind?
