Fairy Tail Destiny-Chapter 225: Ch : Finalist Teams

After the brutal preliminaries, the highly anticipated Grand Magic Games finally began on the morning of the same day.

The venue for the event—Domus Flau—was filled with excitement, applause, and cheers.

Whether they were mages or ordinary citizens, everyone was celebrating this grand annual festival.

The stands were nearly packed to capacity, and the overwhelming enthusiasm made it feel as if the entire stadium was about to burst into flames.

As the commentator and judge for the event, Chapati Lola introduced his fellow announcer, Mr. Yajima, and the guest for the first day—Jenny from Blue Pegasus.

Then, he began his commentary:

"Once again, it's that time of year—the annual magic festival, the Grand Magic Games!! Alright... it's finally time for the participants to enter! First to enter is the team that ranked eighth in the preliminaries. Can they reclaim their former glory? A team that defies the meaning of their own name with their wild nature—Fairy Tail!!"

As Chapati's voice echoed through the stadium, the five members of Fairy Tail, dressed in matching purple uniforms, finally made their official entrance: Natsu, Gray, Erza, Ed, and Lucy.

However, the crowd was far from welcoming.

Instead of cheers, they were met with a chorus of boos.

Only a few scattered voices showed support for Ed.

The rest of the team couldn't help but feel a bit dejected.

"They're... actually booing us?" Gray sighed helplessly.

"It can't be helped. Our guild has a pretty bad reputation," Ed said with a wry smile.

............

"Fairy Tail, the team that has ranked last every year, has broken through the preliminaries and secured a spot in the top eight! With the return of the legendary Tenrou Group that shook the continent, can they finally claim the title of Fiore's strongest guild?"

Commentator Chapati skillfully stirred up the atmosphere with his words.

Meanwhile, the five members of Fairy Tail quickly shook off their gloom.

After all, they still had the support of their guildmates.

Especially with the first guild master, Mavis Vermillion, having come personally from Tenrou Island out of boredom to watch over them, their morale was instantly restored to full strength.

"Alright, next is the seventh-place team from the preliminaries," Chapati continued after introducing Fairy Tail's A team.

"The Hell Hounds—Quatro Cerberus!"

The five members of Quatro Cerberus strode confidently out of the corridor, each one radiating a savage aura.

"Wild nature!!"

"Ooooh!!" The five of them shouted in unison.

"In sixth place, we have the all-female guild! The dancers of the vast sea—Mermaid Heel!"

The moment the five girls made their entrance, the stadium's energy soared to an unprecedented level.

As expected, an all-female team was bound to receive special treatment no matter where they went.

"In fifth place, shining like a beacon in the darkness, the azure wings—Blue Pegasus!! In fourth place, the goddess of love and battle, the sacred destroyers—Lamia Scale!"

The fifth-place team, Blue Pegasus, was unsurprisingly led by Ichiya, along with the handsome trio of Hibiki, Eve, and Ren.

The only unfamiliar figure among them was a mysterious creature in a rabbit costume that even the Fairy Tail members didn't recognize.

As for the fourth-place team, they were led by Jura, representing Lamia Scale.

However, there was also a new face among them—a naturally airheaded girl named Sherria, who was actually the younger sister of Sherry.

"Next up, in third place from the preliminaries—oh my, this is quite the surprise." Chapati's voice suddenly rose slightly, sounding a bit astonished.

"A guild participating for the first time has made it into the top three—Midnight's Guerrilla Squad, Raven Tail!"

As an ominous black mist swirled around them and dark feathers drifted through the air, the five members of Raven Tail slowly made their entrance.

Leading the group was a man clad entirely in armor, and the entire team exuded an unsettling aura.

"Raven Tail!!" Natsu exclaimed in shock upon seeing the group.

"That's the guild led by the master's son, Ivan..." Erza said grimly, her expression turning serious.

"But isn't that...?" Lucy looked over at Erza, her voice filled with uncertainty. "A dark guild?"

Up in the stands, Makarov was visibly agitated, strongly voicing his opposition.

However, Chapati quickly explained that Raven Tail had recently become an officially recognized guild, rendering Makarov's protests meaningless.

Left with no other option, all he could do was grit his teeth in frustration.

"Alright, only two teams remain from the preliminary round!" Chapati's words stirred the crowd into a hushed excitement.

One of the remaining teams was, without a doubt, Sabertooth.

However, the identity of the other team was a complete mystery, sparking speculation and discussion throughout the arena.

After all, with all of Fiore's major guilds already revealed except for Sabertooth, curiosity about this dark horse—one even more unexpected than Raven Tail—was at an all-time high.

Chapati didn't leave them hanging for long.

"Now, it's time to introduce the team that placed second in the preliminaries—ah, now this is truly unexpected! In second place, we have... the absolute, undefeated champions—Sabertooth!!"

The moment Chapati made the announcement, the crowd's murmuring grew even louder.

To everyone in the arena, Sabertooth had been the obvious pick for first place.

Yet, somehow, they had only managed to take second in the preliminaries—an outcome that shocked many.

As the five members of Sabertooth walked onto the field, their expressions were noticeably sour.

For a guild like Sabertooth, anything less than first place was nothing short of failure.

"And now, we've finally arrived at this moment—only one team remains to be revealed. I'm sure everyone is dying to know who they are!" Chapati's voice was filled with excitement.

Then, almost gasping in surprise, he continued, "Oh my, this is truly unbelievable! Could they be the key to soaring once more like fallen wings reborn...?"

White radiance intertwined with golden lightning, the immense magic power contained within the spectacle leaving everyone in awe.

A massive emblem of Fairy Tail materialized within the glow and lightning, and then, under the astonished gazes of the entire arena, a group of individuals clad in matching white uniforms slowly stepped onto the field.

"...Fairy Tail Team B!!!" Chapati's voice reached a dramatic peak.

"Noel-nii!!"

"Mira!!"

"Gajeel!!"

"Juvia!!"

"Laxus and Noel in the same team?! That's totally unfair!!"

The five members of Fairy Tail Team A stared in shock as Noel and his team entered the arena, their jaws nearly hitting the floor.

The entire stadium fell into a brief silence, overwhelmed by the unexpected development.

Only Chapati's voice continued to echo through the venue:

"This is unbelievable! Not only was Fairy Tail Team B the first to clear the preliminaries, but they also finished a full thirty minutes ahead of second-place Sabertooth! This is simply incredible!"

After a brief moment of silence, the entire arena erupted into heated discussions about the sudden appearance of Fairy Tail Team B.

Ultimately, it was Makarov's close fri—er, dear friend—Yajima who stepped in to confirm the legitimacy of the team's participation.

When Blue Pegasus' Jenny expressed concern over whether this setup was unfair, Natsu was the first to jump up, pointing at Noel's group.

"What kind of joke is that?! Even if we're from the same guild, we'll still fight at full power! No holding back! Since you're entering as a different team, that makes you our enemy! I'm not gonna lose to you guys!!"

"That's exactly what I wanted to hear."

Gajeel stepped forward, smirking as he taunted Natsu.

"Eighth place squad."

Natsu, struck at his weakest point, had no words to counter and immediately backed off in defeat.

"Do your best, Ed. I'd love to see how much you've grown in these seven years."

Noel said with a mischievous smile, looking at a flustered Ed.

"Noel-nii..." Ed scratched his head, unsure of how to respond.

"We won't be holding back in this festival." Mira added with a playful grin.

Meanwhile, Rogue, one of Sabertooth's Twin Dragons, gazed at Gajeel from a distance with a complicated expression.
