At the center of the arena are two diametrically opposed areas: lava volcanoes and ice realms.

The lava volcano occupies the northwest of the center, where the temperature is higher than that of the Great Desert, and just standing on it is as if your body is about to be burned, and even the surrounding peaks are red from the heat. What's even more terrifying is that every once in a while, these peaks erupt with magma and flames.

The flames burned the entire sky a dark red, making it look oppressive, and the magma flowed southeast along the terrain until it met the cold air of the Ice Realm, and then gradually subsided.

The Ice Realm occupies the southeast of the center, where there are many icebergs, wind and snow, and it is difficult to see the light of day.

The unimaginable low temperature and wind and snow made it difficult for the participating members to move an inch, but they must not stop here, because once they stop to rest, it will not take long for them to be "frozen to death" and eliminated.

Under the influence of the hot air of the lava volcano, the icebergs near the northwest side are slower and slightly warmer, but even so, the nearest iceberg is hundreds of feet high.

Of course, this is not really an iceberg, but an illusion created with ice magic!

Unless it is a magician with excellent perception, it will not be detected at all, and it is enough to deceive the participants and the audience. But then again, the audience knows that the scene is fake anyway, so who really cares if it's made with embodied magic or hallucinatory magic?

This scene is designed by the punk Hazard of the anime next door to Kira for a long time, one fire and one ice, one red and one white, the visual impact alone is very strong, if you are in it, let alone the experience is great!

"Look! This place is so cool! ”

"Volcanoes and icebergs are next to each other...... How can such an environment be possible in reality? The magic is amazing! ”

"I'll give 100 points for this scene!"

"The ticket money was not spent in vain, this trip is not a loss!!"

At the intersection of lava volcanoes and icy boundaries is a huge lake. To the northwest of the lake are black rocks formed by the magma encountering cold air, and to the southeast are ice fields that have been swept away by the hot air.

A rocky passage that has been washed away by the lake for an unknown amount of time crosses the lake in a northeast-southwest trend, splitting it in half. This rock passage is smooth and wide, and the center is directly shaped like a circular stone platform.

This design is mainly to enhance the atmosphere of the battle and make it more enjoyable for the audience to watch.

And now, on this stone platform, there are exactly two people fighting, and the battle between these two people has also attracted the audience's attention from the ugly sandfish.

"The ...... of the Fire Dragon Wing Strike!! ”

"Made of Ice...... Spear Rider Flurry!! ”

Peng!! Magic roars, and ice and fire clash again!!

As the white fog gradually dissipated, the two figures of the battle also caught the audience's eye.

"It's Natsu and Gray!!"

"I didn't expect them to meet here, it's really a suitable scene!"

"Hey, hey, hey...... Anyway, it's too much of a coincidence, right? Is this really a background operation? ”

Listening to everyone's complaints, Makarov replied with a righteous face: "This competition is absolutely fair and just, there is no fraud, everyone don't have to worry!" ”

Seeing that the old man's serious and serious appearance did not look like a fraud, everyone believed it in their hearts.

"Sure enough, I said the president wouldn't do such a thing!"

"So that's the one, right? The so-called fate and fate or something......"

"Natsu and Gray are still in this kind of place, it's definitely fate!!"

Hearing that everyone no longer paid attention to these unexpected coincidences, Makarov's face remained silent, but the hand hidden under the table wiped the sweat on his clothes, and at the same time he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

It's great to be able to fool the past! If everyone finds out that the old man is secretly operating, it will be over! At that time, the old man's reputation will be over! Really, if it weren't for the formation of those open bets, the old man wouldn't have to do these things! The one who said fate really helped a lot!! Who is he? ’

I secretly glanced at the reassuring voice that had just come from, only to find that the voice was actually coming from the audience of 'Fairy Tail', and then ...... Makarov saw a familiar red-haired figure,

In the crowd, Dispel waved his hand at Makarov's smile, winked, and finally patted his chest confidently.

Makarov's eyes widened instantly: 'When did this kid come back?!' Didn't he teach his disciples to practice swords in the mountains?! Wait a minute...... What did he just do?? Could it be that he also has his share in this gamble?! When was this?! How come the old man doesn't know?! Kira's stinky boy......

Makarov, who understood the trick, still held back and didn't break out on the spot, after all, he still knows what to do and what not to do now.

The battle between Natsu and Gray continues, and with the help of their surroundings, both use their magic to the extreme.

Rumble!

The flames and ice collided again, and two thick and powerful fists pierced through the white mist and gave each other a punch, and Natsu and Gray jumped backwards at the same time, a tacit smile on their faces.

"How long have we not fought?"

"Isn't it every day?"

"I'm talking about deciding the winner seriously like this!"

"I'm serious every time I fight!"

"Whew...... I can't help you ......."

"Hee-hee...... I'm on fire!! ”

The same time, in a different place, the same thing happening one after another.

Ghost Graveyard.

With a bang, a series of tombstones were shattered, and in the smoke, a sturdy figure shot out like an arrow, followed by several sounds of breaking through the air, chasing the figure.

"Brontosaurus's Jaw!!"

In mid-air, Laxus, whose body was wrapped in thunder and lightning, folded his hands and slammed downward, and the manic power of thunder and lightning instantly knocked down more than a dozen silver-white long swords.

Winter!

After landing on the ground, Laxus did not take it lightly, but showed a smile full of fun: "It seems that you have become a lot stronger this year!" ”

"Everyone is improving, and I don't want to lose to anyone else!"

A gentle and cold voice sounded from the smoke and dust, and then a long black leg wearing silver-white iron boots stepped out of it, bringing out a heroic red-haired girl.

The golden-white intertwined armor engraved with the thunder and lightning pattern, plus a twisted braid tied with a ribbon, is none other than Elusa wearing the armor of the Thunder Emperor.

With a shallow smile on her face, Elusa held the sword of the god of wind that claimed to be able to dispel everything, and her eyes looked at Laxus, who didn't even have a cloak off in front of her: "It's a rare opportunity...... Let's take it seriously! ”

Hearing this, Laxus grinned, and the lightning flashed in his hand, representing himself to take over the battle: "Then you must be ready to lose the battle!" ”

...... in the audience

"Eh, eh??!! Did Elusa fight Laxus? ”

"Hahaha...... It's fun! I'm looking forward to their fight!! ”

"Which of the two of them is stronger? I've been wondering for a long time. ”

"I think it's Laxus, right?"

"Not necessarily! That's Elusa!! I bet on it anyway...... Ahem, I mean, I'm rooting for Elusa!! ”

The air suddenly fell silent, and then several people around laughed tacitly.

"Look over there! Seems to be a lot of fun! ”

"Huh?! Who? ”

Everyone looked up, and it was another battlefield that took place south of the ghost graveyard, obscured by fog.

Winter! Winter! Winter! ……

Huge rocks crashed down, and two figures ran out of the fog one after the other.

"What the hell is going on? Wake up, Lucy! ”

The person running in front of him turned around and shouted, but the person who said this was Lucy herself, and she was running forward in confusion, shouting as she ran, trying to wake up her friend behind her.

The audience was stunned for a moment and looked at each other: "Lucy, what's going on?" Why do you shout 'Lucy wake up'? Also, who's chasing her? ”

Soon, these questions were answered.

A familiar figure driving a mechanical monster jumped out of the fog, she had long brown hair, only a bra on the upper body, and a pair of brown pants on the bottom, which was a little cooler in late autumn, but perhaps because she drank all day to ward off the cold, she didn't even hear her sneeze.

This person is Kana!

But at this time, Kana looked like she was drunk and was going crazy, her face was flushed, she looked up and laughed, and she ignored the cries of Lucy in front of her.

"Hahaha...... Come and have a drink with me, Kana!! ”

What's going on? Lucy calls Kana 'Lucy', Kana calls Lucy 'Kana'? The audience looked confused.

Makarov explained to the unaware audience: "There are many strange ghosts in the ghost graveyard that can use curses and can be very troublesome if they are entangled. ”

"Lucy and Kana must have triggered the curse of the twin ghosts, so they changed their bodies!"

The mayor continued, "Then why does Kana ...... No, it should be Lucy, why did Lucy, who took over Kana's body, become like this? ”

"It's haunted by a drunken ghost!" Makarov affirmed, "It's a ghost who drinks to death." ”

No one asked why she was entangled, and since it was Kana's body, wasn't it normal to be entangled by a drunken ghost?

Just pity Lucy.

Kana was depressed at this point.

If it was normal, Lucy shouted that she was drinking, she would not hesitate to drink with her! Even if it weren't Lucy, if someone else called herself drunk, she would have considered it.

But now that's not the case!

Not to mention that he is using Lucy's body, this place alone is not a good place to drink now! The ghost graveyard, or was invited under the curse of the ghost, who can drink it?!

"If you don't want to drink from the bottom of your heart, then drinking is not interesting at all!"

For Kana, is there a time when drinking is boring?

Anyway, no one in the guild would believe such words, so when they heard Kana say such words, their expressions were calm, and they even let out a sneer.

"Why didn't Sister Kana fight back, but kept running away?" Romeo, who was only 7 years old, asked.

Macao thought for a moment and explained to his son, "Could it be because she can't use Lucy's Star Spirit Key?" I remember that it was only for people who had to sign a contract with the Star Spirits. ”

"And the Star Spirit...... Do you sign a contract? But isn't this the body of Sister Lucy? You see, Sister Lucy can use Sister Kana's summoned beast. ”

“……”

Then Marcao was asked.

"Watch the game well, why do children ask so much?"
