Chapter 106
After resting for one night in Kroba Town, everyone took the train back the next day, and the rest of the things were left to the army of the Councilor.
Fortunately, they did not ask too many questions, but only took Kagayama and Eligore back, and LULLABY was also taken away in a sealed container.
Unlike the original work, Leila restored the railway to its original state. Moreover, the railway maintenance personnel had already checked it last night, and it can now run normally, and everyone does not have to cross the canyon on foot.
Due to the earthquake in the ancient times, countless faults were caused, commonly known as the "Spider's Nest". There were countless people who got lost here but never walked out again.
Several people in the car also sat together.
"Eluza and Leila's magic are so strong, they are really the strongest team!" Lucy couldn't calm her excitement even after a night.
"The strongest team?" The other people looked at Lucy and said puzzledly.
Makarov closed his eyes quietly on the side, and no one paid attention to him, thinking he was sleeping.
"It was Mira who said that this team is the strongest in the guild." Seeing that they were unaware, Lucy explained.
"Oh, that's true." Gray agreed.
As soon as Natsu got on the car, he asked Leila to cast a spell on him, but even when he fell asleep, he still couldn't hide the pain on his face.
Leila looked at the few people quietly beside him, wondering whether she should quit. What a pity.
Then he turned his head to look at Makarov, who was folding his arms and his nose was bubbling. Makarov gave him the last order last night. If he really wanted to form a team, Leila must join.
Fortunately, Leila followed him all the way this time, otherwise the Onibus Station, the Lyusica Canyon Railway, and the houses in Kroba Town might be damaged, and then he would be dragged to the trial meeting to be criticized.
"Ha, I'm finally back, Magnolia!"
After returning to Magnolia, it was already evening, and the few people were also preparing to go back to rest.
Makarov returned to the guild early. He still had things to deal with. The report on the Iron Forest incident was about to come down, and it would probably arrive tomorrow.
"Hey, Erza, don't forget the agreement!" Natsu reminded Erza before leaving, and then returned to their hut with Happy.
"Well, okay, I'm looking forward to it." Erza certainly remembered and nodded.
After Natsu and Erza left, Gray also went back, leaving only Leila and Lucy.
"Lila, aren't you going back?" Lucy looked at Leila.
Leila looked at Lucy with a confused look: "Huh? I also live in Strawberry Street. It's just on the way. I'll take you back."
"Ah, that's it!" Lucy said.
Leila sent Lucy to her house, and returned to her own house. Looking at the pictures of Natsu, Gray and Erza fighting against Larabai in her hand, she smiled and put them away.
Then he lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling in a daze. He had an indescribable feeling before, always feeling that something was missing, but he had never noticed it until recently that feeling became stronger and stronger.
Lucy got up early in the morning. After watching the fight between the two the night before, she began to look forward to the duel between Natsu and Erza. She originally thought that the two were just joking, but the way they looked last night, they should be serious.
Of course she couldn't be absent, so she trotted all the way to the guild. As soon as she entered the street where the guild was located, she saw a group of people gathered there, it was so lively.
Lucy hurried over and finally heard what the members of the guild were talking about. Natsu and Erza were confronting each other in the middle and were about to start fighting.
"Hey, Lucy, come on, place your bets!" Leila saw Lucy and hurriedly called her.
Lucy looked at Leila, who was sitting in front of a table with a notice board hanging next to him.
It clearly says "NATSU" and "ERZA", which are Natsu and Erza, and also the winning rate and odds of the two.
Below is the number of bettors for the two, counted with "卌", Natsu has 33 bettors, and Erza has 43 bettors.
There is a small box and a notebook on the table, and Leila clearly writes down everyone's betting information on it. The box contains everyone's bets.
However, the amount of the bet is not much, just everyone joins in the fun, and everyone knows the result of this duel. After all, Natsu has never won Erza.
"No, Leila, if you do this, won't the president say anything?" Lucy approached and pointed at Leila's equipment.
Just then, Makarov hurriedly ran out of the guild, and after seeing Leila, he walked up to him without stopping: "Leila... I'm all in on Erza!"
As he said that, he came fromHe took out a handful of money from his clothes and stuffed it into Leila's pocket.
"Huh? Limit the bets per person!" Leila saw Makarov's posture, and then pointed to a line of small words on the notice board.
"I don't care, this is all my wine money, I want to make a big one!" Makarov slammed the table hard.
Leila looked at Makarov helplessly, then only took one, put it in the box, and then wrote down the information: "Don't embarrass me, old man!"
"Humph!" Makarov put away his wine money, snorted coldly, walked away, walked into the crowd, and squeezed inside.
"It's been many years since I've used magic to fight you..." Erza looked at Natsu's impatient look and couldn't help sighing.
"At that time, I was still a kid, but now it's different! I will definitely defeat you today!"
"I will also do my best to fight you!" Erza's eyes became sharp, and she exuded a momentum.
"Change clothes!"
Erusa looked serious. At the moment of casting the magic, she tied her ponytails. The armor was red with black patterns and orange decorations.
"Erusa's Armor!"
"Armor that can improve resistance to fire, so that Natsu's flame power will be halved!"
"Erusa, there is no need to be so serious."
Other members of the guild talked about it, and they all felt that Erza was playing too much.
Flying in the air and focusing on the situation, Habib heard the words of the crowd, and saw a stream of light flashing, and Habib's figure instantly came to Leila.
"Sure enough, I still have to bet on Erza to win!" Habib took out another banknote and handed it to Leila, without any guilt.
"It's all right! But this is the last time." Leila didn't care. It was just a joke. After the modification, she also went there to start paying attention to the duel.
Lucy stood in the crowd and saw the two people about to fight. She felt a little bit reluctant: "I can't stand it. I don't want any of them to lose in this kind of thing."
"The Flame Emperor's Armor... this is how it should be. Now... I can use my full strength with peace of mind!" Natsu's mouth slightly raised.
Makarov stood between the two people, straightened his hat, stretched out his hand and raised it above his head: "Okay, then the battle... begins!"
At the command, Makarov's hand was quickly put down, and the two people immediately took action.
Natsu ignited flames in his hands, leaned forward, and punched. There was a heat in the air. Erza retreated two steps to avoid the attack, and then the sword in his hand swiped, and Natsu hurriedly bent down and squatted. A flame passed over Natsu's head, so he kicked Erza and blocked it with his sword. He slashed hard, and Natsu dodged again and quickly retreated.
"Roar of the Fire Dragon!"
Natsu roared at Erza before he even landed on the ground. Erza adjusted her direction in the air and dodged sideways. Natsu tilted his head and continued to attack.
The flames were about to hit everyone, but no one was afraid. They all stared at the battle intently, afraid of missing anything and being blocked by a transparent barrier.
The two were fighting in close combat, and in the midst of the fierce fight, a sound like a gong interrupted everyone.
