Chapter 725: Postponed Showdown
"The... third singles match is over, the winner is, Laxus Dolea!"
Amid a series of stuttering voices, Chapati announced the winner of the sixth game.
Before the battle began, no one expected that this duel would end so quickly. It took less than three minutes for Laxus to defeat Macara from the 'Heart of the Dragon'.
Although both are second-generation dragon slayer wizards, the difference in their strengths is huge. This is the difference in talent!
" Congratulations to Team Laxus for scoring another point. Now the score between us and Team Kira is three to three."
Laxus walked back to the waiting area from the arena, looking at the grinning Kira with a sour face: "You are amazing... You put all your hopes of victory on the doubles battle, right? You actually let a guy like that take the last place in the singles battle?"
"Hey, hey, what are you talking about? What do you mean by 'a guy like that'?!"
Kira immediately suppressed Laxus's wrong thoughts, "She is also a second-generation dragon slayer, okay?! She is also a very good wizard, okay?!!"
"Also, what do you mean I put all my hopes on a double battle? Didn't I send Di Maria out for the single battle? It's just that her performance disappointed everyone. You know her magic, and there are only a few who can break it! If she hadn't been so playful and underestimated the enemy that she lost the duel, I wouldn't have to fight now..."
"Besides, as the strongest member of the team, what's wrong with me guarding the last level?"
After a series of verbal attacks, Laxus was speechless.
Seeing Laxus remained silent, Kira said slowly, "Instead of being angry here, you might as well think about the bright side. For example... if this single-player battle was between you and me, wouldn't you have to go only so far in this Grand Demon Fighting Exercise?"
"What did you say?!" Laxus felt greatly insulted and rolled up his sleeves to hit him.
"I won't talk to you anymore. It's my turn to perform next!" Kira quickly moved aside and walked off the stage on his own.
"Let's go, Kana!"
Kira waved to Kana behind him to follow, and then looked towards another waiting area not far away, where two beautiful girls were getting dressed, preparing to walk into the arena like himself and Kana.
The white-haired girl is gentle and sweet, while the red-haired girl is heroic and valiant. They both exude different charms but are equally eye-catching.
"Let's go all out on the ground. After all, our enemies are those two women!"
However, just as Kira and his three companions were gearing up for the final showdown, a sudden heavy rain disrupted the progress of the game.
Ever since the last double duel, which was the battle between Natsu and Inbel, dark clouds had gathered over the venue, making it gloomy and depressing, but the audience was so enthusiastic at the time that they didn't pay any attention, and the single battle between Laxus and Macara began.
It is raining heavily now. If the last match had already started, it would be fine and we could force it to be finished, but now it is between matches, so there is no reason to force it to start.
More importantly, the venue was open-air, with no shelter. Even if the wizards were willing to compete in the rain and the judges were willing to commentate in the rain, we couldn't let these 50,000+ spectators watch the game in the rain, right? With so many people gathered together, if something happened to one of them, wouldn't a large number of them fall down in the next few days?
Therefore, the organizers had to suspend the game and wait until the rain stopped before continuing.
The rain has been falling for two hours and there is no sign of stopping. According to some meteorological experts, the rain will continue until tonight, so the organizers can only announce that today's game will be suspended until tomorrow.
As a last resort , the audience returned home disappointed, and more than 50,000 people were soaking wet in the rain, performing a strange spectacle.
"More than 50,000 people... In ancient times, that was more than enough for an army..."
Following the crowd around him, slowly going down the mountain and returning to Kurokas, Kira looked at the crowds of people along the way with mixed feelings and a feeling of great regret.
Why is it a pity? I lost the opportunity to show off in front of everyone, and I also lost a romantic feast of dancing in the rain with two popular beauties, Erza and Mira! Tell me if it's a loss or not!
"Loss! Huge loss! Huge loss!!"
"What have you been muttering about since just now?" Kana's voice sounded in Kira's ears.
"nothing……"
Kira retorted subconsciously, and when he turned his head, he accidentally took a closer look at Cana's figure with his peripheral vision. She was big, round, plump and slender. Except for some blemishes on her skin color, she was still a beauty.
"If you think about it this way, it should be three..."
I don’t know how Gildarts, who travels all year round and still has such fair skin, could have a daughter like Kana with a wheat-colored skin. Did she inherit it from her mother?
"What three?" Kana frowned. Out of her girl's intuition, she subconsciously felt that Kira was thinking about something bad.
"Nothing. I said there are already three people coming from parallel worlds."
It was impossible to tell the truth at this time. It would be bad if others knew that he was staring at her wet body. Kira still wanted to save his face, so he found a similar topic to get around it.
"Three?! Isn't it just Lucy from World 1? Are there others?!"
Kana was surprised to hear Kira say that three outsiders had come to the world, but she also knew that he was not the kind of person who spoke without purpose. If he said that, he either had met the other party or had accurate information in hand.
Kira did not answer Kana's question. In fact, he had no information. He just thought that since two had already appeared, it was not surprising that there was a third one. Besides, wasn't his android who came from an unknown world still jumping around somewhere in this world? He was not wrong to say that there were three.
The people around basically didn't notice the conversation between the two. Only Wendy, who was close, short, and had good hearing, heard it. The little girl's understanding of Kira was similar to Cana's, so her heart suddenly jumped: "Three people? Where did the third person come from? ? "
"Could it be that in addition to No. 1 Lucy and No. 5 Future Wendy, there are other people who came here? ? But how did Kirasan know?"
"By the way, Wendy No. 5 asked me not to tell anyone about her arrival, and I kept my promise. But now it was discovered by Kira-san himself, so it should have nothing to do with me..."
After more than an hour, the wizards finally followed the crowd back to Kurokas.
"What a shame! If the final battle wasn't fought, there would be no feast prepared by the Fiore royal family tonight!"
As soon as we returned to the capital, the crowd dispersed. Kira stood in the middle of the street, sighing, "I had planned to eat as little as possible today and save my stomach for the evening. Now it seems that I can only go out and eat something good!"
Kira has been to Kurokas several times, but he has not tasted all the delicacies of this place. It can even be said that he has not tasted even one-tenth of them.
"You guys go back first, I want to go for a walk..."
After saying hello to his companions, Kira turned and walked towards the food court - even though it was raining, the restaurants were still open for business.
Seeing Kira walking away alone in the rain, the companions who were still paying attention to him looked at each other in bewilderment, and then one of them complained: "This guy... is he eating alone again?"
It was raining heavily and all the members of the guild were soaked. There were elderly people and children to take care of, so they didn't have the leisure time to go to a restaurant in the rain to eat.
Although they haven't had lunch yet due to the competition, it doesn't matter where they eat.
Whenever they encounter this kind of weather, the people from 'Fairy Tail' prefer to stay in the tavern, drinking and chatting with their companions, watching beautiful women singing and dancing. How comfortable and relaxed!
"Forget it, leave him alone."
Shaking their heads helplessly, everyone turned and walked towards the inn where the guild was staying.
