Fairy Tail: I'm Not the Most Terrifying Mage

Page 373

“Yes, this is my sister,” Lucy replied with a smile.

"You seem to have been through some things," the spotted dove asked with a smile.

“Yes—” Lucy said with some emotion.

Yefrit shook his head. He had just gone home to sweep the graves and it seemed he had missed some plot details.

"Alright, everyone's here now," said Chairman Makarov.

"Yes—" Everyone raised their hands.

The guild leader had something to say, which is why Yefrit rushed to the guild before even having a few days to rest after returning.

“Laxus.” Makarov stepped aside.

Laxus stood in front of everyone and said, "I have made a decision. Everyone should participate in the Grand Magic Games."

"The Grand Magic Games?" Natsu and the others, who had returned from the other world, had no idea what this was.

“Romeo, you explain,” Laxus said.

Romeo said, "The Grand Magic Games are held annually and are a competition to select the strongest mage guild in the Kingdom of Fiore!"

“Oh? That’s interesting,” Gray chuckled.

"Last year's number one was called Saberbite Tiger, I think. There must be a lot of strong fighters there," Erza said with a smile, her expression showing no sign of worry.

“I’m fired up!” Natsu exclaimed.

"And the winner gets a prize of thirty million J," Romeo added.

"Oh!!!" Everyone was even more excited, because apart from Yefrit, none of the people who returned from the other world had much money.

“However—” Laxus said, “With everyone’s current strength, participating in the Grand Magic Games might not guarantee a first place.”

"Hey, Laxus, what are you talking about?" Natsu retorted, unconvinced. "With us here, there's no way we can lose!"

"Natsu, have your two magics fused together quite well?" Laxus asked in return.

"That kind of thing." Natsu wanted to be stubborn, but he felt a little guilty.

“Natsu—” Lucy pulled him back and said, “Don’t be reckless, listen to Laxus.”

The magical world has now been updated.

Previously in Edolas, everyone thought that by combining two magic systems—the original magic and contract magic—they would unleash even greater power, and upon returning to Eslandon, they would become incredibly strong.

Who would have thought that three years ago, contract magic would also become popular in Eslandon.

Nowadays, almost every mage with some strength has opened a second magic source, possessing the power of two magic systems simultaneously.

Moreover, they have a three-year integration period.

However, the people of Edolas do not have this fusion period—in Edolas, they cannot use their own magic and can only use contract magic.

Upon returning, it will naturally take time and effort to integrate the two magic systems and achieve a thorough understanding before one can improve their strength.

and so--

This is what Laxus is worried about; even he currently lacks experience in fusing the two systems of magic.

Laxus is a genius, and if he is like this, then the others are even more so.

"so--"

Laxus said, "There are less than four months left. Next, it's time for special training!"

"And Natsu—"

Laxus looked at Natsu and said, "Four months from now, we'll see the results of everyone's special training, and then we'll decide on the list of participants based on those results."

"you--"

"It is not up to standard now."

"I will pass!" Natsu couldn't resist the provocation, clenching his fists with a fighting spirit on his face!

"Doesn't Mr. Yefriedt receive special training?"

After the meeting, Yevlit went home and lay down.

The turtledove asked curiously.

"Do you need it?" Yefrit countered.

"I don't need it," the turtledove shook its head.

She primarily uses swordsmanship; she isn't particularly skilled in magic, and even acquiring contract magic didn't significantly enhance her magical abilities.

Therefore, the Izakura does not need to specifically train to fuse two sets of magic.

Besides, the chances of her being selected are slim; she's too unbalanced in her studies.

“I feel the same way,” Yevlit said.

At this moment, Ikaruga realized that Yefrit's own deception magic and the illusion magic of the contract were similar magics, with the latter being an enhancement of the former.

Besides

Deceptive magic.

Yefried had previously been reluctant to demonstrate its power, but his disciple Emily had already shown the world just how powerful this magic was.

Yefried is definitely stronger than Emily is now; he doesn't need any special training.

then.

the next few months.

Everyone is training hard, especially Natsu, Gray, Gajeel and others. Because there are limited spots and the competition is fierce, they are afraid of not being selected, so they are training like crazy, almost obsessed.

Soon, they each achieved something.

Ten days before the Grand Magic Games.

Laxus announced the end of its special training program.

Then, based on the results of the special training, participants will be selected.

"Quiet," Laxus said, and the somewhat noisy scene quieted down.

He already has the demeanor of a president.

Makarov watched his retreating figure with a face full of satisfaction. He thought, "Once this Grand Magic Games is over, I'll pass the position of guild master to Laxus."

"According to the rules, there will be two teams participating in the competition, with five players on each team."

Laxus read aloud:

"Team A—"

"Erza."

Erza remained calm, as expected.

"Natsu."

"Great!" Natsu clenched his fist excitedly.

"Gray."

“Of course.” Gray smirked.

"Lucy."

"Is this even relevant to me?" Lucy was still quite pleased.

"Jubia".

"Great! We don't have to be separated from Lord Gray!" Juvia was also very excited.

"These five are the members of Team A." Laxus glanced at Elfman and said, "There is also a substitute, originally Elfman, but Abbagrim is pregnant, so he withdrew from the competition."

"Huh?!?!" The entire guild was shocked.

"Hehe." Elfman scratched his head a little embarrassedly.

"When did this happen?!" Erza exclaimed in shock.

Abba Green said, "Just a few days ago, I wasn't feeling well, so..." She blushed slightly as she spoke of this, then suddenly feigned anger and punched Elfman, saying, "It's all your fault!"

"Hehe." Elfman just laughed.

"congratulations!"

Everyone gathered around.

"You're pretty quick, aren't you?" Gray punched Elfman on the shoulder.

“Grey, you need to hurry up too,” Elfman said.

This sentence silenced Gregor.

"Boy or girl?" Natsu asked.

“Natsu—” Lucy was speechless: “We just found out we were pregnant, how could we know the gender?”

"Is it moving?" Natsu leaned in, pressing his ear against Elfman's stomach.

"I heard a sound!" Natsu exclaimed in surprise.

"Let me hear it, let me hear it," Habby quickly chimed in.

Everyone: "."
