Crossover Anime: I, Shirou Kotomine, King of Uruk

Chapter 258 makes its dazzling debut!

"The annual magic festival, the Grand Magic Games, is about to begin!"

"I am Chabati Lola, who is in charge of live reporting, and the narration is provided by former councilor Mr. Yajima. Mr. Yajima, nice to meet you."

Please give me your guidance.

At the Grand Magic Games venue, besides the constant chatter from the surroundings, the only sounds that resonated throughout the venue were the voices of the host and the commentator.

For example, this host, Chabadi.

The former council member Yajima, whom he invited, was a former member of Fairy Tail.

He was also the backer who used to clean up Fairy Tail's messes.

Now retired, he joined the culinary industry, which he was interested in, and has now become a chef.

With the return of Fairy Tail's main players this year, he was invited to be a commentator.

"In addition, we have invited the beautiful and outstanding Miss Fiore, Miss Blue Pegasus Jenny Lialette, to be our guest on the first day."

"Our guild will definitely win this year!"

Miss Jenny, who was invited, was cheering loudly for her guild from the commentary booth.

As the host introduced the event, the surrounding audience cheered loudly, and the atmosphere at the scene was constantly being heated up.

"It's finally the contestants' turn to appear!"

After a lively exchange that warmed up the atmosphere, the host, Chabadi, loudly introduced the teams that were about to take the stage.

"First to enter are the eighth-place finishers from this qualifying round. Can they reclaim their past glory?"

"Completely contrary to the name Fairy Tail, it's Savage Team Fairy Tail!"

As the commentator introduced them, Lucy and her five teammates slowly walked out of the player tunnel.

At the same time, cheers rang out from the audience.

"Go for it, Fairy Tail!"

"No more tricks this year, we absolutely have to win!"

"Fairy Tail, the strongest!"

The entire audience was shouting loudly.

Unlike the original story, Fairy Tail did not become an insignificant little guild because of the existence of Shirou Kotomine.

On the contrary, because Shirou Kotomine became the strongest mage on the continent, they were showing a trend of becoming the number one mage, rivaling Sabertooth, the winner of each year.

Just like Fairy Tail and Phantom Lord in the past.

Therefore, they have an enormous number of fans.

However, Fairy Tail guild always comes up with new tricks every year, and doesn't seem to have any intention of winning first place.

Last year, they even sent out Romeo, who was only about eleven years old.

This is truly something that's hard to believe.

That's why there were shouts telling them to stop playing around with the flowers.

"I never expected everyone to be so supportive of us!"

"I never expected we would have so many supporters."

"This is all thanks to Shirou!"

Lucy said proudly.

"Look over there!"

Erza suddenly shouted.

Lucy and the others looked in the direction Erza pointed, and what came into view was the Fairy Tail crew.

The leader was Makarov.

"Fairy Tail, go for it!!!"

The voices of their companions kept reaching their ears, which made Lucy and her friends extremely excited.

But Lucy soon noticed something was wrong.

Shirou Kotomine and Mirajane were not there.

"Could they have gone on a date while I was competing?!"

The thought of the two of them being all lovey-dovey made Lucy's smile freeze instantly.

So much so that she didn't even notice when the first president, Mavis, appeared in the audience to cheer them on, completely absorbed in her own world.

As a novelist, Lucy has an incredibly rich inner world.

The speed at which his expression changed surprised Erza, who was standing nearby.

"Next up are the seventh-place finishers from the qualifiers, the Hellhound Legion, four hounds!"

"oh!!!"

"The guild that came in sixth place is composed entirely of female members; they are known as the Mermaid Heel, the Ocean Dancers."

"Are there really guilds like this?!"

"The fifth place is the blue-winged Pegasus that shines in the darkness!"

"Keep it up, everyone!"

"The fourth place goes to the goddess of love and battle, the sacred destroyer, the Serpent Princess Scale!"

"Did you even try your best in the qualifiers? How come you only got fourth place!"

The moment the Snake Princess Scale appeared, the arena instantly became lively.

After all, of the five guilds that have already appeared, the other four, apart from Mermaid's Heel, are allies with very good relations.

These were also among the top four guilds seven years ago.

It was quite a lively gathering of these people.

However, not all participants have entered the venue yet.

The host's introduction continued.

"The third place winner is truly surprising. They are participating in the Grand Magic Games for the first time and have already reached third place. They are the Midnight Guerrilla, Raven's Tail."

The Fairy Tail members were the most surprised when Raven's Tail appeared.

After all, they all knew very well that Raven's Tail was a dark guild created by Ivan, the son of Guild Master Makarov.

Now they can actually participate in the magic festival of a formal guild.

This truly surprised them immensely.

But this is not a violation of the rules.

Because Raven's Tail had been preparing for this day, it finally became a formal guild this year.

After its appearance, the crow's tail also repeatedly provokes Fairy Tail.

They even claimed that they were the ones who attacked Wendy.

This infuriated Natsu and the others.

But soon, the murmurs of the surrounding onlookers drew their attention.

The audience is now discussing this with puzzlement.

In fact, these discussions have been going on since the beginning, but they have become even more intense now.

The root cause lies with the remaining two teams.

Most of those who come to watch the Grand Magic Games are people who are very interested in the festival and come to watch the Grand Magic Games every year.

These people quickly noticed something was wrong.

That means the wrong team is on stage!

Having watched the games every year, they know very well which teams are strong and which are weak.

After the arrival of Boa Hancock, the only strong team they are familiar with is Sabertooth.

They simply couldn't imagine what team could possibly be ahead of Snake Princess Scale.

Especially after the raven's tail appears.

After all, it was the first time the crow's tail had appeared, so it was normal that they hadn't guessed it.

But surely the other team can't also be making its debut, right?

That's so weird!

Hearing the discussions among the surrounding audience, the teams present also realized what had happened.

Their own light involuntarily shone towards the entrance passage.

"There's actually a powerful team hidden here."

"Is this guild related to the magic that Geralt mentioned?"

"There's some possibility, isn't there?"

Erza and the others' expressions turned serious.

"There are two teams left that have qualified through the qualifiers."

"The team that finished second in the qualifiers has entered! Is it them?"

"The once invincible champion only managed second place in the qualifiers?"

"That's right, they are the Saber-toothed Tigers!"

As the referees explained, the five members of Sabretooth walked out of the players' tunnel.

But there wasn't a trace of a smile on the faces of the five of them.

Everyone had a stern face.

This expression had actually been with them all night; to be more precise, they had been like this ever since they learned they were in second place.

The saber-toothed tiger is very angry now.

They were eager to know who had taken first place from them.

"Aren't they all here? Then who is it?!"

Sting looked around at the teams of competitors and said angrily.

But no one could respond to him.

Because nobody knows which guild the team that won first place in the qualifiers belongs to.

"Could it be a team participating for the first time?"

"But isn't it a bit too strange to win first place in the preliminaries on your first try?"

"I don't find it strange at all. After all, there's only one event in the preliminaries. What if the first-place team has a mage who's really good at dungeons?"

"That makes sense. After all, magic is incredibly diverse, and anything is possible."

Whispers could be heard from the audience.

All eyes in the hall turned to him.

At this moment, the host's voice finally rang out, and he began to introduce the participating team.

"Wow, this is really unexpected! Could they be the key to the Fallen Feather taking flight again? This is so unexpected, so very unexpected."

"But they have the ability and the qualifications!"

"They're Fairy Tail's B team!"

Led by Shirou Kotomine, the group of five walked out of the contestant tunnel, all of them wearing smiles.

The other contestants were shocked to see Shirou Kotomine and his group of five.

They were not only shocked that Fairy Tail had two teams.

Even more shocking was the appearance of Kotomine Shirou.

You should know that Shirou Kotomine is currently the strongest mage on the continent!

"Oh my god, is that Shirou Kotomine?!"

"It really is him! Why would he participate in the Grand Magic Games?"

"Isn't he the guild leader of Fairy Tail? I remember guild leaders aren't allowed to participate in tournaments!"

Discussions continued to rise.

Whether inside or outside the stadium.

Kotomine Shirou instantly became the focus of everyone's attention.

"What's going on, you five?!"

If we're talking about who was the most surprised, it would definitely be the five members of Fairy Tail's First Squad.

Seeing the wide-eyed expressions on the faces of the five men, Shirou Kotomine burst into loud laughter.

"Hahaha!"

"That's right, that's the kind of expression I wanted to see!"

"Looks like my hiding all this time wasn't for nothing, hahaha!"

Seeing Kotomine Shirou burst into laughter, Mirajane and the other three who had come with him also couldn't help but laugh.

"Lord Kotomine!"

"It's Jura!"

After a burst of laughter, Shirou Kotomine looked at Jura, who had come to greet him.

"Lord Kotomine, what brings you to this Grand Magic Games?!"

Kotomine Shirou's participation in the competition was truly surprising.

Only Jura, one of the Ten Wizard Saints, truly understood just how powerful the top five were, especially the monsters in the top two!

Although they and Jura were all among the Ten Wizard Saints, the difference in their strength was enormous.

"What are you saying? If you can participate in the Grand Magic Games, why can't I? Besides, this is your second time participating!"

"I can't believe it," said Shirou Kotomine jokingly.

He understood what Jura meant, but he still said it that way on purpose.

"Lord Kotomine, you know that's not what I meant!"

Jura quickly explained.

Okay, I know what you mean.

Shirou Kotomine waved his hand, then walked to the center of the hall and said to everyone, "I know you are all surprised by my participation, so let me explain!"

"I think everyone knows about what happened to Fairy Tail seven years ago. If you don't know, just ask the people around you. I won't go into details here."

"Actually, I wanted to participate when the Grand Magic Games were first held seven years ago, but I was appointed as the president at a critical moment, so I didn't participate."

"Now, members of our guild who had disappeared for several years have returned, including our former guild leader, Makarov, who carried on the legacy of Fairy Tail."

Kotomine Shirou pointed to the Fairy Tail headquarters and introduced his guild master to everyone.

"After the president returned, I voluntarily returned the position to the former president, so I am no longer the president of Fairy Tail."

"And this time, I'm here representing Fairy Tail to reclaim our title of strongest!"

"I think many of our supporters have been waiting for this day for a long time!"

"oh!!!"

After Shirou Kotomine finished speaking, the Fairy Tail fans in the audience started shouting loudly.

They have truly been waiting for Fairy Tail to win for a very long time.

Now that they see Shirou Kotomine joining the battle, they are naturally extremely excited.

The Saber-toothed Tiger fans, however, turned pale with displeasure.

After all, Shirou Kotomine is the strongest mage on the continent, and no one would believe that Saber-toothed Tiger could defeat Shirou Kotomine.

This means that Sabretooth's chances of winning this time have become very low.

That's how it is, everyone.

"I did not violate the rules of the Grand Magic Games, otherwise I would not have passed the preliminaries."

"As for Fairy Tail sending out two teams, it's allowed by the rules, and it's also one of my little hobbies. I really want to see the surprised expressions on my comrades' faces!"

Kotomine Shirou turned around and explained to the other teams present.

"Shirou, you bastard!"

Upon hearing Shirou Kotomine's words, Natsu and Gray immediately rushed over, ready to beat him up.

But how could they possibly be a match for Kotomine Shirou?

Soon, the two were caught under Kotomine Shirou's arm and then thrown back.

Meanwhile, the host in the commentary booth explained to the audience that Fairy Tail's appearance was in accordance with the rules.

Having anticipated this segment, they were well-prepared.

After learning that Fairy Tail hadn't violated any rules, the other teams basically stopped caring.

Meanwhile, Shirou Minato also took the opportunity to wink at Lucy, who was standing to the side.

Seeing this, Lucy smiled and waved.

Lucy was extremely happy at this moment, since the presence of Shirou Kotomine and Mirajane meant that her fantasy would not come true.

This instantly improved her mood.

Now she was standing close to Mirajane, whispering and laughing with him.
