Petrel

Chapter 42

Having discovered that we would not be able to find out who was guilty of editing the master's memory, we decided to try to play along with how what happened at the parade should have happened in canon, and the master hopes to the last that Laxus will come to his senses. Although another reason why I agreed to this is that in my opinion, it was the temporary exclusion from the guild that cleared the thunderer's mind, and a couple of slaps from me and the girls will only lead to him becoming even more convinced that strength is the main thing.

The weakest points of the plan are, frankly speaking, Natsu and Gray. With their current strength, they will put Laxus on his shoulder blades just like that, and it will be a little difficult to pretend to be petrified, Evergreen is simply not capable of petrifying the current me and Elsa. Although Charlie is strong, I would equate her strength to the canon Elsa at the time of the parade, and there she fell under the influence of magic and got out only due to the artificial eye.

And so, to the joyful cries of the master, our three agreed to take part in the Miss Fairy Tail competition.

- Residents of Magnolia! And also guests from neighboring cities! - began the host of our beauty contest. And then, putting his hand to his ear, he leaned slightly toward the crowd.

- What? I see some people have even crawled out of their graves to watch this event? Don't forget to come back when it's all over! Okay? - He said, causing the crowd to laugh.

- And finally, what you've all been waiting for! The most beautiful fairies from Fairy Tail are coming out on stage! We're starting the Miss Fairy Tail contest!!! - the host shouted to applause.

- And your host will be me, the sand mage, Max Alrose.

- Our first contestant, an exotic beauty and the owner of a stomach of steel!!! - the host began to introduce the first participant. - Miss Cana Alberona!!!!

Kana came out on stage, posed for a bit and prepared to use her magic.

- Now she will show us her talents. - Kana launched a lot of cards in an arc upwards, which began to circle very quickly around her. - Just look. The cards are covering Kana's body. - A moment later, the cards suddenly scattered and began to fall very slowly, creating a beautiful background and revealing to the audience a girl who was dressed in a beach swimsuit and took a rather sexy pose, while the host continued to comment.

- Her clothes turned into a beach swimsuit!

"500,000 precious, that's how much beer you can get." Kana thought with a seductive smile. If only she knew that she had just earned the close attention of the girl who is the face of our guild.

- A beach suit, she's a cheater! - Lucy was indignant backstage.

- Well, you can go that way too, - Elsa said, standing behind her.

- What? Elsa? You're participating too?! - the girl was surprised, thinking to herself. - "Don't she and Wendy despise money?"

"This time we decided that we had to take part in this battle," I said, drawing Lucy's attention to me and Charlie, who was standing next to me.

- Are you participating too?! - the girl exclaimed almost desperately.

- Heh, Lucy, for a second I thought you were doubting your beauty, - I said with a chuckle before whispering in her ear. - If you want, the girls and I can help you find your new confidence later.

- I-I think I'll refuse, - the girl answered me, blushing with embarrassment.

- Sir, your nose is bleeding! - exclaimed one of the spectators, looking at Makarov, who was sitting stoically with his arms folded on his chest, receiving only a chuckle from the old man in response to his concern.

- The next participant, a newcomer of the S-rank – Fairy of water modest as rain miss Juvia. – the host again drew our attention to the stage, pointing to Rain, who came out in a beautiful, but rather closed outfit.

- Wow! She turned into water! Incredible! - began the admiring exclamations when the girl together with her clothes began to turn into water, and a second later, she also appeared in a beach swimsuit, while allowing the water to take such a form as if her legs were bending around the sea waves.

- Wow! Her talents go perfectly with her beautiful swimsuit!!!

- Gray-sama, are you looking at me? - the girl asked smiling, clearly making it clear to whom all her sympathy was directed.

- She also chose sexual attraction!!! - Lucy was angry behind the scenes, causing us and the girls to laugh a little.

- And now we have the third contestant. The pride and face of the guild!!! - the host began to introduce the new participant. - Her beauty intoxicates all the men in the world, Mirajane!!

Mira came out on stage dressed in a long black dress with open shoulders and her everyday hairstyle.

- She's cute! I love you!!! She's cuter than in the magazines!!! - shouts were heard from the crowd greeting the girl.

- I know a thing or two about transformation magic! And now I'll show you... - after a short pause to warm up the crowd's expectations, she suddenly threw her arms out to the side and exclaimed, using magic. - Face transformation - Happy!!!

- Whaa ...

- Face transformation - Gadgil! - the girl continued to mock the audience, this time transforming her head into the head of a brutal black-haired dragon slayer with piercings. Who, seeing this, spat out the drink that he had just started drinking.

"The main favorite has self-destructed!" Lucy began to giggle contentedly.

After waiting a little while for the audience to recover from the shock, the host began to introduce the next participant.

- The fourth girl, one of the strongest sorceresses, the powerful and beautiful Elsa Belserion!!

Elsa came out on stage wearing an outfit similar to the one she wore in canon, namely armor with a skirt.

- It's her!! Elsa! She's so cool!

- She's the strongest girl in Fairy Tail! Are you stupid? The strongest is Wendy!

The audience began to shout again, and some even began to argue about who was stronger, me or Elsa.

- You'll really like this, - Elsa said with a grin. - I present to you the "conservative" transformation.

"Oh, I always knew my girlfriend was an exhibitionist." I thought, covering my face with my hand. Seeing Elsa slow down the speed of re-equipping a little, so that people could see the moment when she was naked, although her private parts were covered with something like clouds, only this makes the scene even more erotic, and after the magic ended, she appeared as a gothic lolita with a provocative smile on her face.

- Elsa! - Lucy exclaimed in shock.

- He-he... Victory is mine, - Elsa said smugly, confidently walking off the stage.
