Chapter 41: Ian: Ur, Don’t Move. I’m a Proper Man!
"Ian, today is Fairy Tail guild's annual..."
"And very rare fighting tournament..."
"We can't let the young people steal all the limelight!"
"Isn't it our turn to take action now?!"
Ur said, looking at Ian beside her.
"No, no, no..."
"Miss Ur, you seem to have misunderstood something."
"What we're holding today is clearly a 24-hour endurance race."
"By the way, a fighting tournament isn't rare in Fairy Tail at all."
"After all, we fight every day..."
Ian turned his head to look at Ur, unable to resist commenting.
After all, in their wizard guild Fairy Tail, they lack all kinds of talents, except for people who love to fight...
According to the Council: "Those Fairy Tail people, if they're not fighting, they're on their way to fight. It's better to disband them quickly, that would be a contribution to the Kingdom of Fiore and the continent of Ishgar."
"Huh? It's not a fighting tournament?"
Ur scratched her hair in confusion...
Because Ur and the others had missed Makarov's explanation of the rules earlier...
So when she saw the chaotic scene before her eyes, she thought Makarov had organized some kind of fighting tournament!
The meaning of Fairy Tail guild's 24-hour endurance race is...
The members of Fairy Tail guild, within these 24 hours, beat up others with all their might, and after 24 hours, whoever can still stand and talk is the winner.
At least that's how Ur understood it.
"Ah, this..."
Ian was at a loss for words at this moment.
So, the slightly airheaded Miss Ur...
Had she misunderstood the event being held today from the very beginning?!
But come to think of it...
Miss Ur's understanding of the 24-hour endurance race was too dangerous, wasn't it?
Beating up companions for 24 hours?
Whoever beats up the most companions within 24 hours is the winner?
Was their Fairy Tail some kind of dark wizard guild?
Even dark wizard guilds wouldn't be this brutal, right?
Even if Mard Geer and the second guild master Precht heard Ur's understanding of Fairy Tail guild's 24-hour endurance race rules, they would laugh, pat Makarov's shoulder, and seriously say: "Oh, little Maky, you're the real dark wizard, you're the real demon! Compared to Fairy Tail, our dark guild is still too white. At least we don't harm our comrades without reason."
"Anyway, enough talk."
Ur said, taking off her top and throwing it aside.
"Wow~"
Instantly, the crowd of onlookers nearby all let out exclamations. They widened their eyes, appreciating the beautiful scene before them.
"No, Ur, if you want to fight, just fight..."
"If you want to participate in the endurance race, just go participate in the endurance race."
"Why are you taking off your clothes here?!"
Ian, seeing Ur start to undress without a word...
As a gentleman with quality and morals, he instinctively reached out to cover his eyes...
But the gaps between his fingers were a bit too large, unable to block all of his vision...
As a result, Ian was forced to use his peripheral vision to look at Ur in the distance with a somewhat critical eye.
"Hmm, that's an excellent posterior."
"Ahem..."
After appreciating for a while, Ian commented as such.
"Ian, enough talk..."
"Let me show you how much stronger I've become in these four years."
After Ur took off the clothes she was wearing that hindered her use of magic, leaving only slightly cool underwear, she assumed the pose for Ice-Make magic as she spoke...
At this moment, terrifying magical power converged towards Ur...
The powerful freezing air seemed to freeze even the small liquid droplets in the air into frost at this moment.
"By the way, don't you feel the weather has suddenly become very cold?"
"Cold? It's freezing me to death!"
The crowd only felt that the weather had suddenly changed from hot summer to cold winter, and they all started shivering.
"In that case, I should get serious too."
Ian said, his gaze slightly sinking...
The magical power inside his body surged like waves, roaring out.
"Boom!!"
In an instant, the ground under Ian's feet was forcibly shattered by his enormous internal magical power, cracking into spider web-like patterns.
Then, with him as the center, everything within a hundred-meter radius was in a state of weightlessness for an instant...
This state of weightlessness only lasted for a moment!
Therefore, those spectators watching the endurance race only felt their bodies lighten for a moment before it ended.
"Did something just happen?!"
Some spectators with keener senses said.
"Never mind what just happened."
"That beautiful lady in very cool clothes and that handsome guy in a trench coat seem about to fight..."
"For some reason, I feel like these two should be experts."
"Hope they can bring us an exciting battle."
However, compared to the spectators with keen senses, more were spectators who loved to watch the excitement and didn't mind the trouble. They looked at Ur and Ian who were vaguely confronting each other and said carefreely with smiles.
"Uh..."
Of course, compared to these spectators who obviously hadn't realized the magnitude of the situation...
Makarov, the current guild master of Fairy Tail and one of the current Ten Wizard Saints, wasn't so relaxed.
Makarov's forehead was covered in fine sweat, his expression extremely nervous as he looked at Ur and Ian in the distance. He murmured in his heart: "Damn, this enormous pressure! And this magical power that's vaguely above mine! It's just like a confrontation between two real Wizard Saints. If it were me in my youth, it would be fine! But now, do I really have the strength to stop Ur and Ian if they get serious?!"
Makarov was extremely worried...
Come to think of it, when Makarov was young, he had also once gone far in his magical path, reaching the top ranks of the Ten Saints at that time, becoming a monster second only to the 'God level' ones.
However, after Precht transferred the burden of the guild to Makarov.
Makarov shifted all his energy from exploring the unknown magical path to taking care of the guild's children.
This also meant that although Makarov was still formidable in magical power, genuinely at the level of a Ten Wizard Saint...
But with the increase in age, his body was far from what it was in his younger days.
After all...
Makarov hadn't truly stepped into the realm of 'non-human', becoming a real monster.
Perhaps, it was precisely because Makarov had always remained human that he was able to surpass the dreamlike, fairy-like first master, and the second master who had fallen into the abyss of the magical path and progressed towards becoming a demon in the 'non-human' realm, to build Fairy Tail into the best wizard guild in history.
And now, it was time for every wizard in Fairy Tail, the best wizard guild in the world, to repay Makarov, the gentlest hero in their hearts, who had sacrificed everything for Fairy Tail guild, even betting his magical path, and exchanging the price of not stepping into the 'non-human' realm!
"Ice-Make Magic Secret Art: Infinite Rose World!"
"Super Gravity Magic: Death Gravity Spin Break!"
"Whoosh!"
Along with the constantly rising magical power within Ur and Ian, two huge magic circles large enough to cover the entire Fairy Tail guild slowly rose from under their feet...
The next second.
The two secret art magics directly collided.
Saint-level secret art magic could already be said to be at the super magic level.
"Boom!!"
In an instant, with the two of them as the center, all the people nearby were blown into the sky...
No joke...
The entire town of Magnolia shook three times at this moment.
"Is this wave coming for us?!"
Those tourists who had heard about wizards fighting and specially came to Ur and Ian's vicinity to watch the show were all dumbfounded at this moment. They were just in a daze for a moment, and by the time they reacted, they were already in the sky.
Fortunately, people in the Fairy Tail world have tough physiques, and Ian and Ur deliberately controlled the magical power they released, which prevented these bold tourists from directly perishing under the aftershock produced by the collision of their two secret art magics.
"Boom!"
Seeing this, Makarov didn't dare to delay at all...
The spectators were blown away first, and he immediately used his specialty Giant magic, transforming into a huge form hundreds of meters tall, with a foot that could crush the Colossal Titan from "Attack on Titan". He used the soft muscles on his arms as a buffer to save the crowd of spectators in the sky who were about to free fall and would certainly die from the impact.
"A giant?!"
"Mom, I'm seeing the giant from mythology for the first time..."
"I feel like this trip was worth it."
"Magnolia town..."
"From today on, it's the holy land of tourism in my heart."
At this moment, these tourists still thought that being blown into the sky by the air wave just now, and now being caught by this giant so huge that one punch could destroy a small town, was all part of the performance.
On the other side, the battle continued.
"Not bad~"
"With your current strength, Ur..."
"Even among the current Ten Wizard Saints..."
"You'd at least rank in the top five."
Ian looked at Ur who had blocked his attack and said with a smile.
"You're not bad either."
Ur lightly brushed her fluttering short hair, tucking the troublesome hair behind her ear, and looked at Ian, saying confidently.
"Then next, I should get serious too."
As Ian spoke, the sky of the entire Magnolia town darkened at this moment.
A huge magic circle hung in the sky, covering everyone present...
The terrifying pressure...
Made all the strong ones, including Makarov and Ur, furrow their brows.
"Such strong pressure."
Ur said, crossing her hands and mobilizing her magical power, ready to counter any move.
"True Heavenly Body Magic..."
As Ian spoke, the sky seemed to open a huge crack, as if some terrifying existence was about to descend from beyond the sky to the earth.
"Wuwuwu..."
"Stop fighting, you two!"
"I'll just give you two the one million directly, okay?!"
"If we keep fighting, even if I sell Fairy Tail, I can't afford to compensate!"
Makarov naturally recognized Ian's magic. His body trembled slightly...
The next second, he burst into loud crying.
