06x170 - A Small Fist

[bunniefuu]

Dragon Slayer Secret Art!

She's mastered one of them already?!

--Here it comes!
--Do it!

Wendy's using a secret technique?!

--It's really strong!
--This win's in the bag.

What is this? A wind barrier?!

We're trapped inside!

Shattering Light: Sky Drill!

Shelia!

--All right!
--Hooray!

I haven't mastered the Milky Way yet...

For now, this is my full strength...

My full magic power...

Wh-Whoa...

Well done, Wendy...

Was that a little excessive?

Still, this means...

Shelia is down!

The winner is Fairy Tail A's...

Sorry! Please wait!

I'm still just getting started!

You're really amazing, Wendy!

Are you okay? Want to give up now?

Aye, Sir!

The Grand Magic Games are
really starting to heat up now!

Natsu and the rest on Fairy Tail
Team A took 8th place in the prelims

to just barely qualify for
the main tournament...

...then they did terribly on Day 1.

But thanks to Natsu's help, they've been
steadily racking up the points since!

But Raven Tail kept sabotaging things...

...and our Team B got off
on the wrong foot as well.

And we mustn't forget about Sabertooth.

It's currently revered as the
most powerful guild in Fiore.

They have two Dragon Slayers
on their team: Sting and Rogue.

They also have top-notch skill.

An incident happened with their
celestial spirit wizard Yukino,

but they're all super-tough!

Speaking of incidents,

it turned out that Raven Tail's Alexei
was actually their Master Ivan.

Ivan is the son of our guild's Master Makarov.

He's also Laxus' father.

Also, Gajeel had been spying
on Raven Tail as a double agent.

The battle between father-and-son
guilds finally ended,

and Wendy's opponent in the
next match turned out to be...

...Shelia of Lamia Scale!

She's apparently Sherry's cousin!

I'm told Lamia Scale and Blue Pegasus
once teamed up with Fairy Tail

to battle the Oración Seis?

That's right.

This festival of magic is filled with
familiar faces and new guilds alike!

That's what the Grand Magic Games are all about!

Now, then! Without further ado...!

Wendy versus Shelia! Let the battle continue!

Hooray! Hooray! Fairy Tail!

You're... not going to give up?

Wendy!

She can barely even stand!

Wendy...

This is one intense battle.

Small Fists.

If that Shelia girl has some
connection with Zeref...

...then Wendy is in danger!

Hey, you!

--Huh? Isn't he...
--...with Fairy Tail?

Do I stop them, or do I watch and wait?

Wendy...

Still...

I had managed to infiltrate
Fairy Tail seven years ago.

So I have some knowledge of
Fairy Tail's inside information.

Mystogan...

You can't possibly be in Earth Land now.

I don't hate fighting,

but I have no love for one-sided
v*olence in a match with a clear outcome.

The Council?! At a time like this...?!

It's okay to surrender, you know.

Okay?

I can't!

The fact that I'm standing here

means that I'm prepared
to fight for my guild too!

I don't need pity.

Please fight me with everything you have
until I fall and can no longer move!

Please!

Wendy...

Right! That would only be proper!

Yes!

Then it's time for my big technique!

I'll use this att*ck to ease your pain!

God Slayer Secret Art!

--Don't, Shelia!
--You mustn't!

You fool! Are you trying to k*ll her?!

Responding to full-powered feelings
with full power of your own!

That's love!

Wh-What is this magic power?!

This is...!

Gathering Clouds of Heaven!

She dodged it?!

No, it missed!

It looks like Shelia's magic
can perform self-restoration,

but only in terms of
physical injuries--not stamina.

Yes...

On the other hand, Wendy's magic
can't perform self-restoration,

but it can restore a target's stamina.

I see!

Huh? Does that mean...?

She restored her opponent's stamina?!

As a result, Shelia's magic
gained too much momentum?!

She made it miss?

By increasing her enemy's stamina?!

What a strategy!

Wow!

Sky Dragon...

...Crushing Fang!

You're incredible, Wendy!

What an amazing turn of events!

Neither competitor is giving up any ground!

Their small fists collide!

Do they fight so tenaciously for their guilds?!

I can't stop them.

Their fists may be small...

...but their spirits are so very large.

Go! Don't lose, either of you!

Wendy...

And...

...time!

Match over!

The fight ends... in a draw!

Both teams score 5 points!

Awesome!

Way to go, Wendy!

They both fought splendidly.

Yep.

Shelia and Wendy both did very well.

That was a sight to behold.

Draw...!

This bout goes down as my personal favorite!

Shelia is far superior if you only
consider magic power, and yet...

U-Umm, I can't fight at all,

but I can use all kinds of
helpful support magic...

So please...

So please don't leave me out of the group...

That girl back then...

...has grown this much?

Wendy...

Wh-What are you crying about?

Did that hurt? I'm sorry!

No, you don't need to keep apologizing!

I had a lot of fun, Wendy!

Oh, my injuries...

I-I had a little fun, too.

Hey! Let's be friends, Wendy!

O-Okay. If you don't mind having one like me...

No! That's not something
friends say to each other!

Let's be friends, Wendy!

Yes, Shelia!

What a touching ending!

The tournament could
end now and I'd be happy!

Hold on. It's only the end of Day 3.

Thank you, everyone!

What...?

The fight is over, yet the ominous
magic power hasn't disappeared?!

Is Shelia not the source
of this magic power?!

It's coming from there!
It's moving toward the exit!

Tch!

He noticed me?!

Still...

Day 3 has come to an end.

Currently, Sabertooth has
the top spot with 34 points.

Mermaid Heel is in 2nd place,
and Lamia Scale is in 3rd.

Trailing behind the top three are
Fairy Tail B, A, and Blue Pegasus.

Fairy Tail's performance comes as a surprise.

I'll need to give this some thought, 'k-kin...

The source of this mysterious magic power...

There!

I've found you!

When did you--?!

You're not going anywhere.

The source of the mysterious
power is right there, too...!

Who are you?!

I should just knock him out and--

No.

I'm supposed to play the part
of a Fairy Tail wizard now.

I can't make any moves against the Council.

Doranbolt. What is this commotion?

Curses!

I know you're not Mystogan.

Who are you?

I'll ask again.

Who are you?

I'm sorry. I'm in a hurry.

Oh, no, you don't!

Mystogan isn't in Earth Land.

I am Mystogan.

What are you--?!

Who are you?!

Man, I'm starving...

Sheesh, Natsu! We're supposed
to be basking in excitement here!

I can't help it if I'm hungry.

Let's go, Happy! It's time for some grub!

You have such a one-track mind.

Oh... So do I.

Aye, Sir!

Those two...

It's fine.

After our great performance today,
I bet dinner will taste delicious!

Oh, no--!

Jellal?!

Oh, here you are, Mystogan!

Mr. Yajima!

Laharl.

Now do you understand why
Mystogan keeps his face hidden?

Huh?

He was unfortunately born
with the same looks as Jellal.

Could you show him some sympathy?

He's... a different person?!

Have you heard of the world known as Edolas?

Yes, my men have told me about it.

It's connected to our world,

and there exist people in
both worlds who look alike.

Then you're from Edolas?

Yes.

That was an amazing match!

Jellal...

Kagura?!

Whoa! What's wrong?!

--Ms. Kagura!
--Kagura!

Kagura! Pull yourself together!

Someone get a doctor!

Kagura needs help!

--What happened?!
--Is she okay?

Jell--!

I'm all right. I've calmed down.

But right over there...!

I know.

I'm fine now. Thank you.

They've been harboring him all this time.

Fairy Tail has been sheltering Jellal?

Why, Erzy?!

I appreciate your understanding.

No, I should apologize for my ignorance.

I consider Jellal a menace as well.

Should I find him, I will let you know.

I must be going.

I'm in your debt, Mr. Yajima.

Just this once.

Leave before you cause any trouble for Macky.

Yes. I shall be gone by the tournament's end.

That was the real one.

I'll let Mr. Yajima save face for now,
but I won't let him escape.

The trail's gone cold.

That magic power was like
Zeref's... but also different.

Who is that person?!

The old geezer must've still had faith in you

somewhere in his heart.

Because you're his son.

Silence!

I've lived in the shadows for this day!

All so I can obtain the Lumen Histoire!

Where is the Lumen Histoire?! Where is it?!

Tell me, Laxus!

You're my son, aren't you?!

Geezer.

What's the Lumen Histoire?

Did you hear about it from Ivan?

Heh, that's putting it lightly.

He really seemed to want it.

Honestly, now. That kid...

He said it was part of Fairy Tail's "dark side."

It's not dark at all.

First Master!

The Lumen Histoire is our guild's "light side."

No, First Master! You mustn't!

I know.

Only those who serve as guild master
are permitted to know this.

I ask for your understanding, Laxus.

As long as it's nothing messed-up, I won't pry.

Thank you.

Still, where did Ivan get
ahold of that information?

From the second master, Precht, I assume.

It's not an impossibility...

I never imagined Precht
would fall to the dark side.

I made a poor decision, choosing him...

No, you aren't to blame, First Master.

It is my fault.

I was...

First Master!

G-Geezer! What do we do?!

I'm not crying!

I'm not... crying... one bit...!

Laxus! Comfort her! Console her!

That's asking for the impossible!

Oh, man. More swimsuit battles?!

Hey, Natsu. I saw some swimsuits
sitting in another guild's locker room.

--So?
--It was only the bottom half, though!

Someone's going to fight topless!

Man, that's wild!

Oh, that's not the reaction I was expecting...

Next Episode: Naval Battle.

What were you expecting?

Something like, "Whoa! Seriously?!" or,
"Heh, I'm getting front-row seats!"

That's crazy talk.
