Fairy Tail: I'm Not the Most Terrifying Mage

"There are many strong people in the world, and in our guild, you can count them on two hands!"

"How could I possibly lose to you!"

"How could I possibly lose to you!"

"In that case, what qualifications do I have to participate in this S-rank assessment and become an S-rank mage!"

"me--"

"But it's the fire dragon from Fairy Tail!"

"hold head high--"

Natsu's roar even contained a hint of a dragon's cry.

The terrifying dragon's roar traveled far and wide, reaching everyone on the entire island.

"What is that? Are there dragons on this island?!" The dark mages were startled.

"Natsu?" Lucy looked towards the forest to the east and silently wished him well, "You won't lose, I believe in you!"

‘Kacha’

The sound of a branch breaking.

Zancro involuntarily took a step back.

He then discovered that he had actually stepped down!

He was afraid!

Looking at Natsu in the flames, he was shocked and puzzled.

What the hell is this?

Is this even human?!

'boom'

The orange-red flames almost solidified, blasting away the black flames.

The raging flames almost distorted space and time!

Looking at the figure in the flames, Zankro couldn't help but utter a single word.

"Grit your teeth—you bastard!"

Naz steadied himself.

"red lotus--"

"Fire Dragon Fist!!!"

‘Boom boom boom’

The overwhelming shadows of fists almost coalesced into a mountain of fists, descending upon Zancro.

"I won't stop here!" Zancro came to his senses and roared, struggling desperately.

He blocked the punch.

He blocked ten punches.

He blocked fifty punches.

It can't withstand a hundred punches!

Five hundred punches!

'Boom boom boom boom'

Natsu relentlessly swung his fist, the overflowing fire magic almost setting the entire forest ablaze.

'boom'

Zankro was brutally knocked to the ground. He could no longer defend himself. Facing the barrage of orange-red fist shadows falling from the sky, he let out a final, unwilling roar: "Even if you defeat me, your guild will be defeated by the god-like Guild Master Hades. Today is the day of your destruction, you bunch of fairies!"

'boom'

The earth sank deep, almost creating a drained pond; the land was scorched black, and even glistening glass appeared.

Natsu withdrew his fist, and Zankro lay in the middle of the crater, almost unrecognizable.

Natsu's body swayed slightly.

'Snapped'

A hand supported him.

Natsu didn't turn around, but said to Zankro, "What a guy who can't be woken up even with a punch."

After he finished speaking, he turned around to look at the person who was supporting him.

It is Yefried.

He grinned, showing his big teeth, and said, "I—won!"

"Impressive." Yefrit smiled and gave a thumbs up.

Then, he took out a photo, handed it to Natsu, and said, "So handsome."

The photo shows Natsu throwing a punch.

"Hahaha--"

Natsu took the photo, laughed loudly, pushed Yefrit aside, and fell backward.

He lay sprawled out, gazing at the sky, a gentle breeze ruffling his cherry-red hair like fluttering cherry blossoms. He said, "Yeflit, do you think Igniel would be proud of me now?"

Yefrit said with a smile, "Natsu, who defeated a powerful enemy to protect his family, is someone everyone would be proud of."

Natsu said with a hint of anticipation in his eyes, "Perhaps... if I do well enough, Igneel will one day come and praise me."

“Natsu,” Yefrit said, “Don’t force yourself. Dragons are creatures that do as they please. You are the son of a dragon. You only need to do what you want to do.”

"Okay." Natsu nodded and said, "You don't need to worry about this. Go help the others."

“Actually, I’m making a bet with someone,” Yefrit said. “He hasn’t agreed yet, but he will, once I win.”

"What are we betting on?" Natsu asked, somewhat curiously.

"I bet that the people in their guild are all skilled at boomerangs."

"Boomerang?"

“Ah—” Yefrit explained, “It’s like this guy, who came out and said those arrogant things, only to get beaten down by you.”

“Interesting!” Natsu laughed.

"I'm leaving now, the next match is about to end," Yefrit said.

"it is good."

Yefrit pulled out a card, threw it on the ground, and a large pile of wood appeared. Then he threw the card he had retrieved back out, and it hit the wood, instantly igniting a raging fire.

Leave a fire for Natsu; with his Dragon Slayer physique, Natsu will soon be able to recover—if not at full health, at least half health or more.

The next game has begun.

Lucy watches Leo fight Caprico.

Lucy initially joined the battle, but she found that no matter how she attacked, she couldn't inflict any damage on her opponent.

Leo explained: This is because the opponent's "Human Subordination" magic is specifically designed to target humans. It can weaken human strength and magic, and even control humans as puppets.

However, the Protoss are not restricted.

Therefore, Lucy's participation in the battle not only fails to deal damage but also causes trouble—Leo has to protect her at all times—although this is unnecessary, as Lucy has two layers of absolute protection: the giant toad and the clock tower.

But Lucy decided not to cause any more trouble.

This was the first time she hadn't participated in the battle, but had instead watched the Protoss fight.

And now.

Leo has already tricked Caprico, or more accurately, Zudir.

Yes--

The real enemy is not the goat butler, but Zudir, who is possessing him.

soon.

Leo was at a disadvantage under the enemy's siege—Zudir summoned a powerful figure from history.

Leo feigned defeat.

"Hey hey hey."

In the darkness, Zudir laughed triumphantly and greedily.

"This time, I'm going to take over your body—Leo."

"A human body is still the best!"

During a lull in Leo's attack on Capricorn, Zudir seized the opportunity and successfully possessed Leo's body.

"Leo?"

The perceptive Lucy immediately noticed Leo's change.

Even though it was the same standing posture, in that instant, Lucy felt like a completely different person.

This made her start to worry.

'Snapped'

Just then, someone tapped her on the shoulder, startling Lucy so much that she screamed and jumped aside. When she turned around, she saw it was Yefried.

"Yefrit, you've come at the right time! Hurry and help Leo, something's wrong with him!"

Lucy quickly said.

She breathed a sigh of relief; Yefrit had arrived, which made things much easier.

Although it sounds strange, in Lucy's heart, if she had to say who she has the most confidence in in the entire guild, or even from birth to the present, or who she feels the safest with, it would be this person.

That person wasn't Natsu, Erza, or even Guild Master Makarov.
