Chapter 173 - Chapter 173 Raven Tail Strikes!

After the battle between Kenichi and Minerva concluded, three more battle matches took place.

The participants of these three battle matches were respectively:

Fairy Tail B Team's Elfman vs. Raven Tail's Nalpudding

Lamia Scale's Yuka vs. Blue Pegasus's Eve

Mermaid Heel's Milianna vs. Quatro Cerberus's Semmes

After fierce battles, they concluded with victories for Fairy Tail B Team, Lamia Scale, and Mermaid Heel.

"Alright, all of today's matches have ended. Now, let's take a look at the total points ranking for all 8 teams!"

As soon as the live commentator finished speaking, a huge virtual screen appeared in the sky above the arena.

The virtual screen displayed:

Fairy Tail A, 58 points.

Fairy Tail B, 54 points.

Mermaid Heel, 24 points.

Sabertooth, 22 points.

Lamia Scale, 22 points.

Raven Tail, 17 points.

Blue Pegasus, 15 points.

Quatro Cerberus, 9 points.

"58 points and 54 points! The first and second positions of the two Fairy Tail teams remain unshaken. They are truly too strong!"

"Today is already the third day of the Grand Magic Games. Only tomorrow's matches and the final championship match remain. Whether Fairy Tail can maintain this momentum and win the championship of this Grand Magic Games, let's wait and see!"

As soon as the commentator said this, the entire venue instantly erupted.

"It's only the third day and they already have over 50 points! In previous years, such high scores only appeared in the finals. Fairy Tail is really strong!"

"Even the second place's 54 points is 30 points higher than the third place's 24. Fairy Tail is surely the champion, right?"

"No, there are still tomorrow's matches and the finals. Given the organizers' track record, the final championship match will definitely be designed so that all teams have a chance to win the championship. But judging by the current situation, Fairy Tail has the highest probability of winning the championship!"

While the audience was buzzing with discussion, the Fairy Tail's members over there, like Macao and Romeo, were also extremely excited.

In previous years when they participated in the Grand Magic Games, they were always at the bottom.

But this year, they could see the prospect of winning the championship. How could they not be excited? How could they not be thrilled?

"Champions, champions..."

"The championship is finally coming to our guild!"

"For the championship, let's celebrate!"

Seeing Macao and the others' excitement, under normal circumstances, Lucy would definitely retort them with a line like: "Aren't we celebrating every day?"

But in this situation, she was only touched and wouldn't dream of teasing them.

While everyone was extremely excited, Kenichi's gaze fell upon the location of Raven Tail.

Although Kenichi was quite far from Raven Tail's location, he possessed Hearing Magic, so he could hear everyone in the entire venue very clearly.

Just now, the conversation of the Raven Tail's members had also completely reached Kenichi's ears.

"What's wrong?"

Erza followed Kenichi's gaze to the Raven Tail's members, then furrowed her brows slightly and asked.

"Raven Tail seems to be planning to target the Thunder God Tribe."

"The Thunder God Tribe?"

Erza was extremely clever. After hearing Kenichi's words, her gaze immediately fell on Laxus: "They're coming for Laxus? But Raven Tail's Master, Ivan, is Laxus's father. What does he want with Laxus?"

'What does he want with Laxus?'

'Naturally, it's for Lumen Histoire!'

However, Kenichi wouldn't say this out loud.

...

Night fell.

Same as the previous two nights, the Fairy Tail's members entered celebration mode again!

But as they got closer to the championship, everyone became even more wild.

Especially Cana, who was chugging barrels of alcohol one after another.

In the end, Natsu, Gray, and the others even used the empty barrels as wheels, sliding around the hall!

The party continued until late at night. Even after Makarov announced it was time to disperse, everyone still felt like they hadn't had enough.

"Champions, we are the champions!"

"Laxus is the strongest!"

After Freed, Evergreen, and Bickslow left the bar, they staggered towards their accommodation.

Just as Kenichi had overheard at the venue, after the three Thunder God Tribe's members entered an alley, Ivan and the other Raven Tail's members appeared before them.

"Raven Tail?"

Seeing the masked Ivan and the others, Freed's expression changed immediately.

And Evergreen and Bickslow also immediately entered a combat-ready state.

"Hehehe, the Thunder God Tribe, Laxus's personal guard. If we capture you, Laxus should become more cooperative."

If Ivan and the others were only targeting the three Thunder God Tribe's members, the trio wouldn't be too concerned.

But now, hearing Ivan mention Laxus's name, the expressions of the three Thunder God Tribe's members changed dramatically.

"You just mentioned Laxus, didn't you?"

A terrifying aura emanated from Freed's body as he questioned Ivan in an icy tone.

"Oh? Not bad, that look in your eyes!"

"However, there are only three of you, while there are five of us!"

Seeing the killing intent emanating from the three Thunder God Tribe's members, Ivan remained unmoved. He then ordered Flare, Kurohebi, and the others beside him: "Attack!"

With Ivan's command, Flare and the other three directly pounced, while the man who looked somewhat like a crow was looking for an opportunity to drain Freed and the others' Magic Power!

"Dark Ecriture: Seal!"

Seeing Flare and the others charge forward, Freed didn't hesitate. He swung the sword in his hand, and a purple runic array blocked the path of Flare and the others.

"Puppet Array: Heavy Model!"

"Fairy Blast!"

Bickslow and Evergreen beside him took the opportunity to launch attacks at the Raven Tail's members.

Boom!

For a moment, a violent explosion sound came through the air.

At this time, Kenichi, Erza, Mirajane, and Wendy all heard this explosion.

"That's Freed and the others' Magic Power! Raven Tail actually dares to make a move here in the capital?!"

After sensing the Magic Power reaction from Freed and the others, Erza's face suddenly changed.

"Let's go!"

Without any hesitation, Kenichi, Erza, and the group immediately rushed towards the location of the explosion.
