It had been about three months since Evan had returned from the Northern Continent.
It was already the seventh month of the year 776, and it was about a year before Natsu and the others passed through the Eclipse Gate.
Kingdom Fiore, the town of Magnolia, the Fairy Tail Guild, in the middle of the arena...
Three figures were engaged in a crazy battle on the arena!
Terrifying magic power flashed on the arena from time to time, but fortunately, the arena had the attribute of isolating magic power, so the aftermath of the three people would not spread outside the arena...
"Go! Kurnugi, I bet all my money on you!"
Erza, don't disappoint me!
Can you call Evan's sister like this?
"Laxus, what are you doing? Laxus! If you are like this, you can change your name to 'Lacross' in the future!"
"..."
Below the stage, a group of Fairy Tail mages were holding large amounts of cash in their hands, drinking beer while roaring at the stage.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk."
As for those far away from the arena, on the Fairy Tail Bar, Makarov was counting the bills in his hand, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
At the same time, on the arena...
"Too weak, too weak, too weak"
"You think you are worthy of being called the daughter of Irene? And you... Are you really the sister of Master Evan? Too weak!"
Kurnugi put his hands on his waist and fought against the two of them. At the same time, he fought against both of them and threw them off their armor. After being educated by Evan and Irene, Kurnugi finally regained his self-confidence as a dragon. Kurnugi was born for the arena. There was nothing better than standing on the arena and enjoying the cheers of the human race. It would be better for Kurnugi to find his own self.
"Hu, hu, hu..."
Just as Kurnugi was laughing arrogantly, Laxus and Erza were half squatting in front of Kurnugi. At this moment, both of them seemed to be on the verge of collapse as they panted heavily.
However, this does not mean that Laxus and Erza are weak...
On the contrary, the fifteen-year-old Laxus had already activated some of his dragon power. Although this power was not complete, it had already allowed him to reach the level of a senior S-Class Mage. He was only one step away from the threshold of becoming a Holy Ten Wizards Saint.
As for Erza, who was currently wearing a sword robe and holding a demon blade red tassel, under the high pressure of Kurnugi, her Busoshoku and Visibility had all increased to the level of Level Seven...
In other words, the current Laxus and Erza were much stronger than the two of them in the present period!
However, their opponents were too strong. Although Kurnugi was only a young dragon, his magic power had already reached the level of the strong dragon. Including the magic resistance and physical strength of the dragon, there was no way he could defeat Kurnugi without the level of a Spriggen. After Kurnugi transformed into a dragon, his strength would continue to increase. Even if he was compared to some adult dragons, he would not be much weaker. After all, he was the child of the Moon Dragon God, Selene!
Although Kurnugi was a deflated balloon, he was still considered a genius among the dragons.
"Why aren't you talking anymore"
"Oh, right, you two midgets don't have the strength to speak anymore, right"
"Ahahaha..."
Kurnugi, who was only 1.2 meters tall, was crazily shouting in front of Laxus and Erza. His annoying appearance was worthy of the title of 'Cheap Saint Dragon'.
"Audience of the arena, let me hear your voices. Tell me loudly, who is the king in the arena of the Fairy Tail?"
Kurnugi looked at Laxus and Erza who were recovering their energy and laughed loudly. He ignored the two people and ran around the arena. He interacted with the members of the Fairy Tail below the arena and the townspeople who came to watch the battle between the mages.
It seemed that in Kurnugi's eyes, no matter how much he rested, he would never be able to defeat him. There was no way, this was the difference in strength!
"Kurnugi! Kurnugi! Kurnugi!"
It had to be said that Kurnugi knew about fighting performances, and as he interacted loudly with the crowd below the ring, the entire Fairy Tail resounded through Kurnugi's name.
"Ka Cha, Ka Cha, Ka Cha..."
The reporters from Sorcerer Magazine were constantly pressing down on the shutter in their hands.
"Laxus and Erza! Did you all hear that? Do you know who is the owner of the arena and who is the king here?"
"Since you know, then hurry up and get out of the arena! Only one person is allowed to stand on the arena, and that is me, the direct disciple of the 'Sword Saint Dragon', Kurnugi!"
Because Kurnugi had lost his name to Evan, Kurnugi always boasted about himself as a direct disciple of the 'Sword Saint Dragon'.
"Laxus..."
Erza ignored the nagging Kurnugi and changed into the Lightning Empress Armor. At the same time, she hinted at Laxus who was beside her.
"Ah! I got it..."
When Laxus heard the hint of Erza, his expression changed and he immediately began to adjust the breathing frequency between himself and Erza.
Lexus continuously injected his energy into the Lightning Empress Armor in Erza's hand...
"This is?!"
The originally arrogant Kurnugi frowned as he looked at the combined attack of Erza and Laxus. His expression became serious.
"This is... Could it be Fusion Magic!"
"A spell that requires the will of a mage, magic power, and breathing to be used?"
"When did these two brats learn such a dangerous thing?"
Makarov, who was originally sitting on the bar counter, was shocked when he felt the magic power of Laxus and Erza. Beads of sweat dripped down his forehead. With the magic power of La Laxus and Erza, even he could not block this attack with no injuries. No, if he was directly hit, he might even be seriously injured in one move.
Without a doubt, this was definitely a sure-kill spell of Mage Level 10...
"Phew..."
Without waiting for everyone to think too much...
Along with the steady breathing of Laxus and Erza and the same magic frequency, the spear in their hands suddenly flashed with a dazzling golden light.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
!!!
Along with a golden glow, a terrifying kill that had reached Mage Level 10 and above shot out from the hands of Laxus and Erza and shot towards Kurnugi.
In the face of this move from Laxus and Erza, Kurnugi's eyes widened. Then, he saw they shoot towards the sky from above his head through the guild's sky plate.
"Very strong, very strong! Even I can't be unscathed! But isn't this aim a bit too weak?"
Kurnugi admitted to the ultimate move of Laxus and Erza. He turned around and looked at the gun that had broken through the wall and shot into the sky.
"Now that your magic power is exhausted, it is time..."
After a moment of silence, Kurnugi turned around and looked at Laxus and Erza. He planned to give the two people in front of him one last blow, and then Kurnugi saw...
"Bastard! If not for the mistake in your breathing at the last moment, how could I miss it!"
"Don't deny it. If your aim is bad, then your aim is bad. Why do you insist on blaming me for having a wrong breathing frequency? You can't afford to play, right?"
"Do you want to fight?!"
"Come on, come on. Am I afraid of you?"
The two of them, who had originally joined forces to fight against the enemy, began to have internal strife. Although the two of them did not have any magic in their bodies, since they were fiercely fighting together.
In the end, the powerful body of Erza wrapped around herself and punched Laxus, knocking him out.
"How did these two achieve the fusion of will"
Below the stage, a group of Fairy Tail Mages who were watching the competition silently watched the infighting between Laxus and Erza.
They probably don't want to lose. Even if the two of them are at odds, their desire to win is the same. So, the two of them can only use joint magic, right?
Macao and Wakaba looked at each other. Based on their understanding of Laxus and Erza, it was most likely the case.
"Hu..."
In the end, Erza, who had exhausted all her strength and magic power, kicked the unconscious Laxuz off the stage, while she walked off the stage in a huff. Erza knew that she herself was not a match for Kurnugi at all!
Although Kurnugi was really cheap, he was also really strong.
"Now you see! Who is the king on this stage!"
"..."
Kurnugi stood on the stage and looked at the crowd proudly.
"Kurnugi! Kurnugi! Kurnugi!"
"..."
Immediately, cheers sounded from below the arena once again...
"Sigh, there's no one who can beat the Fairy Tail's mage. It's so lonely to be invincible!"
Kurnugi stood on the stage and felt the cold feeling from the high ground.
Just as Kurnugi was looking at the people of the Fairy Tail proudly, Erza, who had left the guild somewhere, kicked open the door of the guild and pulled Erza in.
As Erza entered the guild, the atmosphere in the guild changed for a moment...
"Kurnugi is going to suffer. Erza, that siscon, is coming..."
Wakaba and Makao looked at Evan, who had appeared in the guild. The two of them looked at each other, and everything was silent.
"Kurnugi, I'm sorry..."
Evan jumped onto the stage and smiled at his good disciple.
"Hehe..." Towards this, Kurnugi only smiled coldly. Then, he knelt down on one knee and begged Evan. "Master, hit me lightly! I am afraid of pain!"
