"So, Natsu, will you choose me as your bride or Lucy as your bride...?" Lisanna crouched down, grinning as she reached out her hand to Natsu was lying on the ground.
"Bride?" Upon hearing this word, a series of question marks immediately flashed through Natsu's mind.
Looking at Lisanna, he seemed to be thinking about something.
Lucy, who was perched on Natsu's back, was also taken aback when she heard the question.
However, her face soon flushed slightly, as if some expectation was quietly growing in her heart.
Just then, Natsu suddenly thought of something, and a glint of excitement flashed in his eyes. Without hesitation, he shouted, "I want both of them!!" After saying that, he reached out his right hand, trying to grasp Lisanna's small hand.
However, he forgot that there was someone on his back— Lucy.
Because Natsu's movement was so sudden, Lucy lost her balance and swayed precariously, about to fall off Natsu's back.
"Ah~" Lucy cried out in panic, waving her hands wildly in the air, trying to grab something.
Natsu was startled when he heard Lucy's cry and reacted quickly.
With lightning speed, he pulled his hand back from Lisanna's grasp, quickly braced himself on the ground, then flipped over forcefully, sitting on the ground and pulling Lucy tightly into his arms.
Lisanna looked at Natsu and Lucy, who were hugging each other, and a relieved smile gradually appeared on her face.
She whispered, "Natsu is really greedy, wanting two brides, shameless... hehehe." After saying that, she playfully squatted down, stuck her tongue out at Natsu and Lucy, and then turned and ran away.
Then she skipped and hopped over to Mirajane's side, happily saying something.
Ding-ding~ The bell rang
"The wedding is over! Now it's back to the swimsuit party!" Jabdirola shouted excitedly. His face beamed with Pleasure, as if he couldn't wait to see the next act.
As the wedding attire came to a close, the atmosphere became lively once again.
But then, an old voice rang out. "Alright, it's about time for me to go on stage!"
Everyone looked up and saw a figure standing on top of a huge statue.
Upon hearing this voice, Yajima's expectant expression instantly turned grim. He stared wide-eyed at the sky in astonishment.
Immediately afterwards, Oba Babasama, the guild Guild Master of Lamia Scale, leaped down from the sky, excitedly shouting, "Let me show you what true feminine charm is~ Haha!"
An elderly woman in a sexy swimsuit confidently twirled around in the center of the area, showing off her charm.
However, contrary to her expectations, the originally cheering crowd suddenly fell silent, and the entire background tone turned pale and lifeless.
Jabdirola, Yajima, and Jason on the stage were stunned, their throats seemingly blocked by something, unable to utter a sound.
Only the host, his voice trembling, said, "This... that was truly a powerful blow. The atmosphere in the hall has plummeted to its lowest point, and even the participants have left..."
"Looks like it's just us left. Now it's time for our official match!" Jenny said confidently, one hand on her hip.
Based on the previous promotional events and the audience's reactions, Jenny was certain that men indeed preferred the younger woman.
The outcome of this match was entirely determined by the three referees on the stage.
"If I can get past them, I'm guaranteed to win," Jenny thought to herself, while silently plotting how to win over the three judges.
She was confident that she had enough information to make the perfect decision.
Just then, the host Jabdirola, picked up the microphone and announced in a passionate voice, "The final battle is here..."
However, before he could finish speaking, a terrifying Magic Power suddenly surged up from below, instantly spreading throughout the entire venue.
"Full-Body Take Over — Demon Sitri!" Mirajane murmured softly, her tone firm and steady.
As she finished speaking, the Magic Power energy caused her clothes to flutter, and her body underwent an astonishing transformation.
Golden earrings adorned her ears, golden armor appeared on her chin, her white hair became curly and long, cascading down her back, and she wore a demonic dark blue outfit with a black cloak draped over it.
Her expression changed from kind to aloof, smiling, like a Queen on a high throne.
The terrifying aura shocked the entire audience, especially Jenny, who was still considering her perfect plan and was left speechless with fright.
Jenny, who was about to bring up the bet, was completely stunned. Her mind went blank, her face was filled with terror, and cold sweat kept rolling down her forehead.
"The costume party was really fun~ But I still love fighting the most!" Mirajane clenched her fists, revealing a wicked smile, and looked at Jenny beside her with a mischievous grin.
"... The display of clothing..." Jabdirola swallowed nervously and stammered out the rest of the sentence.
"Looks like the match is over!" Erza said with a faint smile as she saw this.
"I will not admit defeat... I will do everything in my power to protect the Fairy Tail's honor." Jenny calmed herself down slightly, her voice firm as she forced herself to stay upright. She mobilized all her Magic Power to change into battle-ready clothes, and used her last bit of strength to create a solid defensive barrier around herself.
"Very good eyesight!" Mirajane nodded slightly in appreciation.
Immediately afterward, she flashed and appeared behind Jenny like a ghost. She simply clenched her fist and slowly dissipated her Magic Power form.
At that moment, Jenny's armor shattered and scattered on the ground.
"The winner is Fairy Tail's Mirajane!!" Jabdirola announced loudly.
Now unprotected, Jenny, wearing only a thin dress, sat alone on the ground and suddenly burst into tears like a child, as if she had been greatly wronged.
Mirajane, like an older sister, gently pulled Jenny up and softly wiped away the tears on Jenny's cheeks.
"That's amazing! Don't be discouraged!"
"Really?"
"Real."
Jenny, like a child who has received recognition, burst into laughter through her tears, overjoyed.
"Next, the last battle of the second day!"
"The contestant is..."
Mermaid Heel - Kagura VS Fairy Tail - Cana
"Huh? What?!" Lucy exclaimed in surprise.
Although she knew that Cana had been submitted as a backup candidate, she didn't expect to be selected directly.
Moreover, in terms of one-on-one matches, it seems that members of their team have been selected in recent rounds.
Upon hearing this option, Zorn understood the Kingdom Royal Family's intentions.
They probably want to figure out just how strong each of the contestants in Fairy Tail really is!
So we used another Fairy Tail's ace player for testing.
Since that's the case, then let them see for themselves that Fairy Tail will always be the number one Fairy Tail in the Kingdom.
No one can shake his position.
