Chapter 164: Fire Demonic Beast
On the field, facing Kira's merciless fist, Rebecca, who was under triple gravity, used all her strength to spin the slender magic pen in her hand: "Guard!"
The words realized their meaning, and a barrier appeared out of nowhere, separating Levi and Kira, blocking Kira's fist!
Disper was surprised: "Oh my god! She blocked it!!! Kira's 20 years of kung fu is useless!!"
The attack failed, and Kira's mouth twitched: "That guy Disper is so noisy, I must beat him up when I get back!"
"Nani Nani?? I think I heard contestant Kira scolding me. No way, no way? Is this guy anxious? Is this the limit of his ability? I wonder what a stranger who happens to pass by here thinks?"
Jet and Dorel: "Kira, you bastard, how dare you treat Levi like this? I will never let you go!!"
Unknown drunk woman: "Kira is like this! Hiccup - very narrow-minded."
The former male star whose identity is a mystery: "He actually punched a cute girl. I despise him!"
The topless stripper said: "This guy is very stingy. We usually don't dare to offend him easily, otherwise we will have to endure his crazy revenge."
The cherry-haired ninja covered his face with a scarf: "Everyone is right, I really want to teach him a lesson every day!"
Kira: “…”
You four just wait for me!
“Smash!”
With the addition of anger, Kira shouted loudly and directly broke the protective shield into pieces.
Leibi was sweating profusely: He wouldn't mistake me for Natsu and the others, would he?
"I...I give up!!" Seeing the fist about to fall, in the crisis, Lei Bi suddenly thought that she could still surrender, and shouted directly, "I give up, don't hit me!"
Kira nodded and withdrew his fists and magic, accepting the surrender.
Disper immediately announced: "The game is over, Kira wins! Both players, please leave as soon as possible!"
Kira pulled Rebby up and walked down the stage. As soon as they sat down, two... oh no, two figures came over and shouted loudly.
"You bastard, you actually did that to Rei-chan!"
"Didn't I tell you to be gentle with Rei-chan? If that punch hits her, she'll be in a lot of pain!"
"Huh?" Kira glared at the two of them, "Are you teaching me how to do things?"
The two of them immediately lowered their heads unwillingly: "Sorry!"
"Don't you two know that girls are meant to be loved!"
Others: “…”
Is this what this sentence means?
"You easily surrender to the fists of the strong. How dare you say you like girls?!" Kira frowned and shouted, "Also, why are you here with me instead of taking the opportunity to care about Levi?!"
The two suddenly realized: "That's right!"
Looking back——
"Lebi, how are you?"
"I'm fine, don't worry!"
Lucy, Bisca, Mira and others surrounded Levi, leaving no room around her.
Jet and Dolor could only hug each other and cry: "Damn it, we're one step too late..."
There wasn't much cheering in the first game because Disper's actions just now made the audience treat this game as a farce and there was no sense of tension at all.
In fact, it was obvious who would win or lose between the long-famous 'sage' and the unknown and weak little girl. The audience did not expect them to put on an exciting magic duel. It could even be said that this opening match was the one that received the least attention from the audience today.
Compared to the first match, the second match is bound to be more exciting——
"The second match will begin next. Players Gray and Kana, please enter as soon as possible!"
"Is it my turn?"
Gray stood up from his seat and strode towards the stage. He seemed to be in a good mood and in good spirits today, probably because he ranked ahead of Natsu in points yesterday.
Kana also put down the bottle and walked onto the stage in an excited state. It was rare for her not to be drunk. The children from the orphanage were watching in the audience, and she didn't want to leave a bad impression on them.
Gray and Cana were both young people who entered the guild the earliest. They were old acquaintances and old rivals, and they were well aware of each other's strength. Although both of them had become much stronger recently, judging from the results of yesterday's preliminary round, the loser team ranked first and eighth, and the winner team ranked second and ninth, and the overall gap was not big.
As soon as the two came on stage, the audience started cheering.
The loudest shouts were of course: "Mr. Gray, you must win!" and "Come on, Sister Kana!" It was easy to tell who was shouting.
Gray took off his shirt and entered his most perfect fighting state. The silver-white necklace shone brightly in the sun, and the black guild emblem was engraved on his chest, giving him a strong and beautiful look. His muscular lines made Juvia drool in admiration.
Kana took out the cards and her eyes gradually became serious.
As soon as the order of the matches came out yesterday, she decided on one thing: to use this match to step over Gray and become the person closest to S-rank in the guild!
She had always been at a disadvantage in previous fights in the guild. If she could defeat Gray this time, she might be the winner of this year's S-rank assessment!
"Come on, Gray!"
“Why are you so eager to fight all of a sudden?” Gray looked at Cana with a confused look in his eyes, but he quickly recovered and put his hands on his waist. “Forget it, the best thing is to beat you!”
"The second match of the Fairy Tail Magic Tournament semi-finals, Gray vs. Cana, the match begins!!"
As Disper sounded the opening horn, two arcs cut through the battle.
"Ice creation, freeze the lancers!"
Several ice spears were fired from Gray's wrist. It was the evolved magic of the Lancer that he was most familiar with. It had a more stable shape, stronger piercing power, greater destructive power, faster speed, and more number. The increase in overall strength allowed each of his magic to be improved to a certain extent.
At the same time, Kana threw a red card forward. The magic crystal zoomed in and transferred the appearance of the card to the screen. The audience could then see the pattern on the front of the card, which was a red-haired monkey with a ferocious face, bared teeth, and flames.
The hard card hit an ice spear, which shattered.
"This card is so hard?" Kana was surprised. She didn't expect Kira's cards to be of such high quality. Her eyes sparkled as she looked at the card on her waist. "Doesn't that mean I can fight with the card directly?"
If these cards can directly break Gray's ice, then I will definitely win this game!
Your mentality will be different if you have good weapons in your hands!
Kana was in high spirits. She drew another card and chopped at the oncoming ice spears, one, two, three, four... There was no fourth one, because Kana stopped, for the simple reason that her hands hurt from the shock.
Ding! Bang!
The thrown card fell to the ground, creating a puff of smoke. Under everyone's watchful eyes, the fire-attributed summoned beast in the card, the Demon Ape, appeared on the battlefield.
The demon ape is about the same size as the sickle-weasel, less than half a meter tall, thinner, and more powerful.
It is also a monster that walks upright. It does not have the hunchbacked image of an ordinary monkey. Its arms are longer than the knees, and it has six ears on the sides of its head with gold earrings hanging on its ears. Its eyes flash with golden flames, giving it a full sense of special effects. Its body is covered with bright and eye-catching fiery red hair, making it look very hot.
"Is this a fire-attributed magical beast?"
Kana murmured to herself, judging from the cards, it should be cooler, but never mind, as an old customer, she knew very well that the difference between the promotional illustrations and the real objects of the props produced by Hope House was greater than the difference between humans and pigs.
Fortunately, even though the appearance is not very good, its performance is solid, which barely makes up for the dissatisfaction of consumers.
As soon as the Fire Ape appeared, the temperature on the field suddenly rose by several degrees. Gray's ice began to melt. The most obvious thing was that water began to leak from the ice spear, the spear tip became blunt, and the accuracy dropped sharply, and was easily avoided by Kana.
"It's so hot!" Gray wiped the sweat and complained, "When did Kana switch to this kind of summoning card?"
