Don't be fooled by the fact that Jura lost a round to Yefrit before.

But that's because of the rules.

Now Yevlit's condition is not good either.

The pressure then fell on Laxus.

Chapter 241, Gray: 27 seconds

dungeon.

"Hmm, I wonder how everyone is doing. Will Yefrit's illness affect today's battle?" Lucy huddled in a corner of the cell, somewhat worried.

Just then, she saw several guards approaching, but she didn't pay them any attention until they stopped in front of her.

“Natsu?” Lucy recognized Natsu in disguise.

"Lucy, we're here to save you," Natsu said with a smile, reaching out to grab the iron bars. Instead of tearing them down directly, he melted them with high heat in just two seconds.

“Let’s go,” Natsu said.

“Wait, they still have my key and magical artifact,” Lucy said.

'Boom'

Suddenly the earth shook.

Everyone felt their feet sink and then plummet downwards.

"Happy!"

Natsu shouted immediately.

“No problem!” Happy immediately flew down, first reaching the ground, and then teleported everyone over directly.

"Where is this?" The group looked at the eerie underground cave, with strange human-built structures in front of them, bearing a religious style.

"This is the city of death—Naraku Palace," a voice replied.

Then a virtual screen appeared, and on the screen was a beautiful woman with green hair.

“This is the final resting place for sinners, and no one has ever been able to leave. You will rot there, you thieves.”

"Who are you?" Gajeel asked.

“I am Princess Emerald E. Fiore of the Kingdom of Fiore,” Emerald said.

“The Emerald Princess?!” Wendy exclaimed in surprise. She immediately said, “Your Highness, can’t you be a little more accommodating? We are Yefrit and Emily’s companions, aren’t they your friends?!”

“That’s right!” Natsu said. “Yefrit mentioned it before we came. Oh, and I remember Happy was also there.”

“Here.” Harpy pulled a rattle drum from the bundle on his back and said, “This was given to us by Yefrit. He said he would give it to you if he came across you.”

“I’m sorry,” Princess Emerald coldly refused. “My friendship with Yefrit is a thing of the past. My relationship with Emily is indeed good, but that’s not enough to make me betray the law.”

“Enjoy your final days in that place,” Princess Emerald said.

With a 'crash,' Habby slammed the rattle drum to the ground, breaking it.

Princess Emerald's eyelids twitched, and Harpy said, "That's what Yefrit said too."

'Crack'

The projector has been turned off.

“Oh no!” Lucy said, “Even Yefrit and Emily’s influence is useless now.”

“It’s alright,” Natsu said. “Just throw it out.”

“The top is sealed off,” Harpy said, looking up. “Otherwise, I could have found a way to teleport out.”

“Let’s go in. If it’s really impossible, we’ll force our way through,” Gajeel said.

“At worst, we can create lava,” Natsu said.

“That would be too terrible,” Lucy said quickly. “It would blow up the palace.”

There are ways to force our way through this place, such as what Natsu suggested: create enough lava, and since Gajeel can defend against the lava, we can artificially create an active volcano that erupts upwards.

That's the royal palace.

This is a last resort, and there's no need to go to such lengths.

The members of Fairy Tail, while not exactly loyal to their lord, wouldn't be so inclined to rebel either. This place is different from other countries in another world.

Of course, if the king really goes to a level that everyone can't bear, then naturally there will be strong resistance waiting for them.

Besides, once the match is over and no one can be found, they will naturally come to rescue them.

"Let's keep going forward, and try to find an exit if possible," Lili said.

So the group continued walking forward.

The scene of the game.

"I'm coming!"

"A highly anticipated showdown!"

Chabati roared, "Fairy Tail Gray has found Sabertooth Rufus! Both are elites from their respective guilds, so who will emerge victorious in this battle!"

Rufus sat gracefully in the library. When he saw Gray arrive, he closed the book and said, "In the last battle, that little girl from your guild interfered, which allowed you to win one round. This time, you won't have that chance again."

Gray grinned: "Natsu once crushed your guild and even defeated the Twin Dragons in a 1v2 situation. I don't want to be inferior to him. Here's the deal—if I can't beat you in half a minute, I'll admit defeat."

With a 'crash,' Rufus suddenly stood up, not caring that the stool had tipped over, and glared angrily at Gray.

Gray's words really hit home.

Natsu pierced through Sabertooth.

Gray even said he would defeat him within half a minute.

Damn!

Are all the Fairy Tail guys this self-righteous?

'boom'

The battle suddenly broke out.

Rufus is one of the strongest members of Sabertooth.

Claiming to be the strongest modeling mage, he uses memory modeling magic, which allows him to materialize magic and objects from his memories and add his own understanding to create new magic.

It can be said that he is an extremely difficult opponent.

Gray is also a shape-casting mage, using ice, and now he's added water to his repertoire.

From a magical perspective, he doesn't seem to be as powerful as his opponent.

However, in a mage's battle, it's not just about mechanics, but also about stats.

For example, Dragon Slayers, like Natsu, Stinger, and Rogue. Confidently activating their Dragon Power and unleashing their Dragon Scales, they temporarily increase their level before unleashing a combined attack, thus enhancing their stats.

As a result, Natsu crushed him with even stronger stats.

Yefrit is a typical example of a bug with bad mechanics; her stats aren't high, but her mechanics are ridiculously overpowered.

Gray looked at Rufus in front of him. "A weirdo, huh?"

Watch as my stats crush you!

'Boom'

The raging flood leveled the entire Book Pushing Pavilion—since the organizers dared to use it as a battleground, they must have the ability to repair it with magic, so there's no need to worry about that.

Faced with this terrifying flood, Rufus did not dare to resist it and quickly retreated.

"Aren't you going to look up at the sky?" Gray reminded him.

Rufus was startled and looked up at the sky, where countless icicles were falling like raindrops!

"Damn it!" Rufus quickly cast a spell: "Raging Wind Fang Shrine!"

The raging tornado swept the ice spikes away.

'boom'

Gray charged forward.

"Memory reappearance!" Rufus quickly materialized the memories in Gray's mind.

Juvia appeared before me.

'boom'

Without hesitation, Gray punched through Juvia's phantom and sent Rufus flying.

"Are you really not afraid? Why didn't you hesitate at all?" Rufus clutched his chest, incredulous.

"Tch," Gray said dismissively. "You'll see once you face a deception spell."

What's so special about these illusions? Everyone in the guild has become accustomed to Yefrit's deceptive magic. If they sense something's wrong, they'll just punch them and won't bother with you!

"Damn it." Rufus tried to get up, but found himself unable to move.

He looked down and saw water flowing from the sewer next to him, grabbing his ankle.

"Oops!"

Rufus was about to struggle

‘Kacha’

He was instantly frozen into an ice sculpture.

"Phew—" Gray breathed a sigh of relief.

Just as he relaxed, another Rufus appeared silently not far behind him, his face full of smugness.

Stupid!

Now everyone possesses a second magic, which is creating clones.

Rufus is very strong. Even if someone kills him, it will take a lot of effort. Once the enemy sees him being killed, they will inevitably lower their guard. At this time, he can take action and kill them directly!
