Card Master in Fairy Tail

This is the world of magic, Ascalante.

On the continent of Ishgar, in the prosperous Kingdom of Fiore, there is the ordinary yet extraordinary town of Magnolia.

A magnificent building that should be noble and elegant is now as bustling as a vegetable market. No, it should be said that it has always been like this.

This is the magic guild "Fairy Tail".

In accordance with the requirements of the third-generation president Makarov, everyone will humbly introduce this to outsiders as the world's strongest magic guild.

Of course, the wizards here prefer to call this place: home.

The guild hall was as lively as ever, with mages chatting and drinking, and occasionally some noisy noises could be heard.

The two demons, Kuanghua and Sera, shuttled among the tables, chairs and benches like beautiful butterflies. Judging from the smiles on their faces, they were very adaptable to their current jobs.

As the master of two demons, Mira sat at the bar with a smile on her face, her hands on her cheeks, listening to her friend Erza sharing travel stories with her mother.

Now Erza and Irene have a very close relationship. They are often mistaken for sisters when they go out on the street. The only flaw is that Irene seems to be a little dissatisfied with Jellal.

Poor Jellal didn't know how he offended Irene, and now there is a huge mountain on his way to chasing Erza.

Timaria, who was the one who reported Jellal to Irene behind her back, was now holding Brandish on her left and Wendy in her right, sandwiched between the two of them with a very happy look on her face. The title of "female pervert" had already spread in the guild.

The blue cat Happy flew across the bar waving a letter, "Natsu, there's a letter for you. It left from the Northern Continent."

Natsu and Gray, who were entangled with each other, separated and their daily fight ended.

Natsu hurriedly opened the letter, his face full of excitement. It was a letter from Igneel and Gildarts.

The content of the letter was that Igneel and Gildarts met in the northern continent, and Gildarts was preparing to continue his unfinished "hundred-year mission", and Igneel and Serena would go with him.

"Hundred-year mission! I'm on fire!" Natsu spit out a mouthful of flame excitedly and grabbed Lucy's hands on the table beside him, "Let's go too! Lucy!"

"Hey!! Hundred... Hundred Years Mission..."

Lucy looked embarrassed. Although she knew that Natsu was very strong now, it was a hundred-year quest. Since the quest was issued, no wizard had been able to complete this extremely difficult commission for more than a hundred years.

But Lucy's worries soon disappeared, because she saw Cana playing a card game with Levi not far away, and she also had one of the cards, as did every Fairy Tail wizard.

A card called "We are Fairy Tail".

"Natsu, Happy, let's go to the Northern Continent!"

"Yeah, long live Lucy!"

"Aye! Long live Lucy!"

Looking at the man and the cat who suddenly started to worship them, Lucy's mouth twitched.

Watching this scene, Juvia on the side took Gray's arm, blushed and leaned on Gray, "Mr. Gray, let's go with Natsu, Lucy and the others."

"A hundred-year mission? I won't lose to Natsu."

Gray was also very excited, but before that, he had to take Juvia to pay homage to his father's grave.

After seeing Gray's happy life now, "Ice Demon Slayer" Yin left with peace of mind. In Yin's hometown destroyed by the devil, he personally destroyed Keith's Demon Book and returned to death.

Laxus was still the king of the second floor, listening to the news in the guild on the second floor as usual, and Natsu's voice naturally reached his ears.

"Hmph, a hundred-year quest? Interesting." Laxus leaned back on the sofa, put on his magic headphones, and stopped listening to the noise of the guild.

Makarov and Mest, who had just returned to the guild, heard Natsu's excited shout. Makarov sighed helplessly, but did not stop Natsu like before.

"The children have grown up. They will be the new pillars of the guild." Makarov was not disappointed. Instead, he was looking forward to retirement life. He had had enough of being the guild president.

Mest saw what Makarov was thinking and smiled, "President, now is not the time to retire."

"I have received news that the Albares Empire will join forces with our Ishgar Continent to launch a large-scale magic battle to determine the strongest magic guild."

Although Fairy Tail is the strongest guild now, it is just the uncrowned king. There are still many people who have no knowledge of or have never even heard of Fairy Tail.

If we win this East-West Continent Grand Tournament and let the name of Fairy Tail spread across the world... in the future, in the column of President's Honor...

The more Makarov thought about it, the more excited he became. "Quick! Go get Natsu back!"

As the news of the East-West Continent Magic Fighting Martial Arts Show spread in the guild, everyone began to discuss it enthusiastically, and the century-long mission and the like could be put on hold.

"A competition between wizards from two continents? How interesting!"

"Wow, there must be hundreds of guilds, right?"

"But Gildarts is not here..."

"Hey, hey, hey, does Gildarts have to take action for such a small matter? Just let me, Uncle Iron Dragon, do it!"

"Humph, just an iron dragon."

"It's Laxus, come down and fight me, my fire fist is thirsty!"

"Old man August accompanied the First Generation to the Western Continent to visit Jellal. They should know about this, right?"

"I heard that Jellal was troubled by political affairs every day. I heard that he once pretended to be sick and didn't want to deal with it, but was discovered by his ministers."

"Eh... Being a king isn't easy either..."

The topic of conversation quickly changed, and the guild became noisy again. Erza, unable to bear it any longer, drew a long sword from the air and said, "It's too noisy! Everyone, be quiet!"

The guild suddenly fell silent.

As Fairy Tail's "nemesis" in a sense, Erza's majesty even surpasses Makarov in some aspects.

"Hey, is the guild so quiet today?" Uru and Urrutia, who had just finished shopping, returned to the guild hand in hand.

"By the way!" Natsu looked around, "I don't think I saw Youxuan today."

Some sharp-eyed people have already discovered that not only You Xuan is missing, but You Chi, Mistgang, and Lisanna are also missing.

Urrutia smiled, "Didn't You Xuan tell you yesterday that You Chi and the others were going back?"

"Eh!!!"

. . . . . .

The Kroba Canyon has been filled in.

The zipper-like crack was opened, and the light-filled interior seemed to be a certain space.

"No one has come yet, they won't forget, will they?"

You Xuan yawned, knowing full well in his heart that the guys in the guild must have forgotten.

Mistogang just smiled and said, "It's not like we won't be coming back, so we don't need any farewell."

"By the way, You Chi, before we leave, is there something we haven't finished yet?" You Xuan patted the card box, and countless cards flew out. In a flash, a deck of cards appeared in You Xuan's hand.

You Chi pulled out a deck of cards from the chaos, "I've been waiting for you, and I thought you didn't dare."

"Then let's begin."

Amid the confused looks from Mistgang and the two Lisannas, You Xuan and You Chi spoke.

"duel!"

"duel!"

"My turn, draw a card!"
