Fairy Tail: The Fourth Master - Volume 1 Chapter 64

“Well, its time for me to attack.” Blue colored lightning suddenly coiled around Happy’s body, shocking those who haven’t it before, even Laxus was a bit surprised.

Happy began to move around, he circled around Gajeel, not allowing the dragon slayer to land a hit on him.

Gajeel was getting annoyed every second. Every time he attacks, he will only hit the ground or an empty air, Happy was moving in speed that he could barely even follow him with his eyes.

Then, a bolt of lightning suddenly hit him in the stomach, air escaped his lungs, and he was thrown away by a couple of meters.

“Volt tackle.” Happy was now standing in the spot where Gajeel previously stood. He was grinning, that attack he used just now was derived from Natsu’s ‘Meteoric Burst’.

“Cough!..cough!..” Gajeel coughed before taking a deep breath, he then stood up and wiped the blood at the corner of his lips.

“Damn cat, you really ain’t going easy on me are you?”

Gajeel grinned as he dashed towards Happy, with his arms coated by iron scales, he began to fight happy in hand-to-hand combat.

Happy has no choice but to dodge, despite having a strong attack power, his defense is pretty much lacking.

All he has is strength and speed.

Besides, his hand-to-hand combat mastery is only basics, he didn’t bother to learn much, and focused on his lightning magic.

Happy retreated and retreated, while Gajeel is following after him as he continue to attack.

“Tsk! Iron Dragon’s Club!”

Happy twisted his body to the side and grabbed the extended iron club of Gajeel. He then released a powerful lightning.

“GAAHHRRGGGHHH!!!” Gajeel screamed as the lightning electrocuted him. With his iron body, the damage was even several times more powerful.

However, he gritted his teeth and endure the shock. He glared at Happy and showed a grin.

“Gehee~! I have..endured Laxus’ lightning, yours is nothing…compared to him…”

A few seconds later, with a puff of smoke, Happy transformed back to his original form.

He look at Gajeel who is unmoving, and shrugged his shoulders while shaking his head.

“I give up.”

Happy then walk towards the rest of the exceed, leaving Gajeel standing there alone.

“How is it Carla? Am I awesome just now?”

Carla did know how to answer. She wanted to nod her head but did not dare to do so, but she also couldn’t deny it, so in the end, she just ignore him.

Seeing his beloved ignoring him, Happy couldn’t help but be disappointed however, Carla’s words next words made him feel like he was in heaven.

“I admit you…aren’t as bad as before, and maybe, you’re a bit awesome and maybe cool back there..” Hearing this, Happy’s smile is as wide as the leviathan emperor, “…but don’t get any ideas…your not my type.”

“Gurgh~?!” Not my type, not my type, not my type, those words words echoed in Happy’s mind as he felt an invisible arrow pierce his heart.

He fell in all fours as a dark cloud floats above his head. Lector and Frosch were patting his shoulders and consoling him.

Seeing that, a mischievous yet sweet smile appeared on Carla’s face, but it quickly disappeared as if it was never been there.

Meanwhile, Panther Lily was helping Gajeel as he still couldn’t move, his entire body was numb.

Ultear glanced at the stunned and disbelief expressions on the tenrou group’s face and couldn’t help but smile.

“As you can see, even Happy isn’t that much weaker than you all, and the other Fairy Tail members also isn’t that much weaker than, some are even stronger, so I suggest you all to train. I’m guessing that master will pick you to represent Fairy Tail in the upcoming Grand Magic Games.”

After saying those words, Ultear turn around and walk back inside the guild.

“Hey wait! What’s the Grand Magic Games?!” Gray yelled but Ultear walked back inside the guild.

“Its a tournament.” The tenrou group turned their heads and saw Rogue walking towards them, Frosch was sitting on top of his head.

“Tournament for what?” Mira asked, the others were also pretty curious about this.

Rogue sighs and began to explain the the GMG to the tenrou group.

“TheGrand Magic Games is an annual competition held to determine the strongest guild in Fiore.” Hearing this, the Tenrou group listened carefully, even Laxus and Gajeel seems to be pretty interested.

“An event held in the capital of Fiore, Crocus, where participating guilds competes for the title of being the strongestMagicguild in all of Fiore. Additionally, the winning guild gets a 30,000,000 jewels.”

“Th-thirty million!?” Lucy’s eyes were wide open in shock. Even the others were also the same, aside from Lucy, this is the first for everyone to have that large amount of money.

“That’s right.” Rogue nodded, however, he seems to want to say something but is hesitating.

Laxus noticed this and urged him to say what he is thinking. “Come on spill it, what is it that you wanted to tell us.”

Rogue hesitates for a moment before his eyes turned fierce as he glared at the Tenrou group.

“Fairy Tail occupied the first place for five years straight. We are the crowd’s favorite, so if master decided to let yoh represent our guild, then you should win. But looking at you all now, even getting the last place will take a miracle.”

“Why you-!?” Gray couldn’t hold it anymore and wanted to shut his mouth, but he was stopped by Erza.

She glared at Rogue but couldn’t find the right words to argue, after all she herself knew that they are really weak in this new ‘era’.

“Can you tell us who and what guild should we be wary of?”

Rogue thought for a moment before he answered, “First should be the Sabertooth, they always came in second place, they were beaten by us with only one point. Next should be the Lamia Scale. There are others, but those two are the strongest behind us. Each of their participants are ridiculously strong, especially the ace of Lamia Scale, the Iron Rock Jura, the 6th rank Wizard Saint.”

“I know all of you are strong, one of the strongest in Fiore, but that was seven years ago, in this year, you are just average, possibly above average. Only Gildarts-san and Makarov-san are allowed to be called as someone who is strong.”

Rogue then started to walk towards the guild, with Gray glaring at his back, however, Rogue suddenly moving as he glance at the tenrou group over his shoulder.

“I’m telling you guys these for you to not overestimate yourselves. The world now is far from the way it is seven years ago. Fairy Tail is my…our home, I don’t want others to look down on it. I also don’t want you to humiliate yourself when you’re in the arena, so you guys better train, and get stronger.”
