The place of battle is not on the chess game, but a specially built arena as the battlefield.

Natsu and Lucy entered the ring, standing opposite each other with unusually serious and serious expressions.

"Although according to the rules, it was Natsu who challenged Lucy, I didn't expect that in the end it was Lucy who took the initiative to declare war on Natsu... This is really a historical scene worthy of being recorded!"

Kira took out the magic crystal and put it in its place, preparing to record the subsequent fight between the two.

For this competition, they suspended the dice game and used dice instead of real people to stand. They all gathered near the ring and used magic to set up several tables. They sat at one table like a banquet and watched the battle.

It's lunch time now, so you can enjoy it immediately after taking a seat: melon seeds, cola, beer, popcorn, fruit platter, barbecue and grilled fish that I haven't finished in the past few days...

"Let's have lunch first!"

"You don't have to worry about us, just enjoy the fight until the last moment!"

There was food, drink, and fun to watch. If there was anything more enjoyable than this, it would be a pity that I couldn't go up and join the battle.

“Ehhhh?!

Too much!

At least let us fight after eating, right?!"

Smelling the aroma of barbecue wafting from the side, Lucy and Natsu, who had just stepped onto the ring, were salivating with greed. After touching their bellies after not eating for a long time, they felt dizzy.

They had thrown dice all morning, and they had not much strength left!

"How is that possible?! How can anyone eat before being beaten?... Well, well, well... you just... well, well... just think of it as a practice! Yes, yes, you are just starving.

It’s the kind of practice that requires combat training!”

If you don’t eat while talking, will you die?

Lucy glared angrily at Kira and others who were "sitting down to eat without being hungry", her anger was 11...

"Ah! Appeared! Black resentment came out of Lucy! She must be very energetic now!" Habi held the grilled fish in his paws, looking gloating, not knowing where he got the courage.

"You dead cat!

"

"Okay, okay... It's almost time to start the duel between Natsu and Lucy..." Makarov returned to his original size and took charge of the overall situation on the chair, "You can come and rest after the fight!

"

"Yoshi, the battle begins!"

“Drink ah ah!

!”

The moment the battle was announced, Natsu rushed towards Lucy without hesitation, but his hands were not wrapped in flames as usual, probably because his opponent was Lucy.

"Taros!" Lucy had also thought of a countermeasure and summoned the Taurus star spirit in an instant.

Against Natsu, ordinary star spirits are useless. There is no water here, so you can't summon good ones.

"Moo! Leave Miss Lucy's victory to me!"

The male cow holding a giant ax appeared on the stage, leaning back, showing his eight-pack abs, and shouting Lucy's name.

As star spirits bound to magicians, Talos and other star spirits belonging to the twelve zodiac signs would occasionally steal when they were in the star spirit world... and would observe their master's situation. Once they found out that the master was in danger or

They will come to the rescue when needed, Leo and Baloo are examples of this.

Even if they are not aware of their master's crisis, when they appear in Aslant, they can recognize the surrounding environment and enemies at first glance.

Except for the two most powerful and most mana-consuming protoss above, only Aquia from Aquarius and Talos from Taurus have appeared on their own initiative so far, while the rest of the protoss have helped because of their appearance.

I'm not busy, so I hide behind the scenes.

"Miss Lucy, don't worry and leave the battle to me! I am your most powerful cow!"

Talos raised his thumb with his back to Lucy, showing his white teeth, and his tone was full of confidence. However, when he turned his head to see his opponent clearly, his eyes almost fell out.

"This time my opponent is...Natsu-san?!"

At this moment, Talos felt that he had been deceived, and his resentment was transferred from Lucy to him: "Miss Lucy, are you holding an event like a guild competition? Isn't it good for me to stay here?

?How about I first..."

"Don't leave!"

Seeing that the other party seemed to want to return to the star spirit world and not interfere in the assessment, Lucy quickly grabbed Toros and said, "I still need your help today!"

"Huh? Miss Lucy needs me?!"

Talos came out of his depression in an instant. His master had said so, and Niu Niu could only do what he said, "Just hit him! It's not like he hasn't been beaten by Natsu-san, so what's the big deal!"

"...Although you are very powerful, can you speak with some confidence??"

“Moo—!

!”

Talos roared and slashed across the air with his giant ax. Natsu's half-stretched fist was immediately blocked by the axe, making a deafening sound.

clang!

!

A huge sound echoed on the entire mountain, and at the same time, the conversation between Talos and Natsu was heard.

"We meet again, Natsu-san!"

"It's Talos."

"I didn't expect that Miss Lucy's opponent would be you..."

Apart from Leo and Baloo, Talos should be one of the stars that Natsu has met the most. "For Miss Lucy, I won't give in easily!"

"Then let's try it!"

After Natsu finished speaking, he sneezed, and his magic instantly turned into flames, creating a sea of ​​​​fire directly on the ring.

"It's amazing!"

Talos praised from the bottom of his heart, then gave Natsu a hard push with his hand, and pushed Natsu straight out - the reason why he summoned Taurus was because he has the greatest power.

And when Talos blocked the punch for Lucy, Lucy had already changed her outfit: "Star Spirit Clothes Taurus Form."

He has a double-crotch haircut, a cow-colored ominous color, one side of his pants is very short at the ankles, and he has a brown leather bag slung across his body, a white belt around his waist, and a gold badge with a picture of a cow pinned to the middle, and his legs are awesome.

He was equipped with boots, arm sleeves, gloves, and forearms, and he also carried a cowboy whip in his hand.

Flames were flying around them, and the heat made Lucy and Talos break into a cold sweat.

"Quick fight!" commanded, and the two men stepped forward at the same time.

“Moo!

"

"The fluctuation of the earth!

"

At the same time as Talos swung the ax, Lucy's strange power hit the ground at the same time. The arena collapsed, and a ravine twisted and turned to reach Natsu's feet.

Seeing two attacks coming from the left, right, and up and down, Natsu jumped up without haste to avoid the huge force from the ground, and dodged Talos' ax in a strange posture. At the same time, the inertia of his body rushed forward.

He moved his arm and hit the opponent's big face with a heavy punch.

winter!

"Uh ah——!" Talos screamed and flew backwards.

"I knew it would be like this..."

"This Talos is so mean!"

"I just pretended to be so handsome, but I was knocked away with just one punch..."

There were constant boos below, but it did not affect Lucy's mentality. She did not look panicked at this moment, but the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, as if she had expected this scene.

Just when everyone was puzzled, a golden light suddenly lit up in the air in front of her. The flash quickly turned into a black figure, facing Natsu who had just knocked Talos out and was still in the air without landing.

A star punch!

The dark man with orange hair, tall figure and handsome face is none other than 'Princess Lucy's Eternal Knight' Leo!

Lucy had also ducked in front of Natsu. When Leo punched, she leaned her body, raised her right leg high to gather the power of the Taurus star, and used a heavy kick that she had trained for a long time!

“Lion Charge!

"

“Lucy Fly Kick!

"

Peng!
