[To the side, Juvia stared wide-eyed, her little fists clenched tightly, muttering to herself.]
"Come on...come on...it'll be over soon..."
The next moment, a violent explosion resounded across the magic crystal screen.
The BOSS has been completely wiped out.
The screen then displayed a message congratulating the player on completing the level.
"Yay!! We finally passed!!!"
Perhaps overwhelmed with excitement, Juvia suddenly jumped up, opened her arms, and hugged Henna tightly.
"Hey, aren't you getting a little too worked up?"
[Smelling the subtle fragrance so close at hand, Black Natsu's lips twitched uncontrollably.]
【"ah?!!"】
Juvia then realized what was happening, and her cheeks instantly flushed red.
He shrank back timidly, burying his head in his chest.
"That...that...ah!! So embarrassing..."
It seemed as if steam was rising from Juvia's head.
Happy, who was watching this scene, couldn't help but cover his mouth.
A voice, thick with a rolled tongue, rang out: "They've got something going on~~"
"Happy!!"
Juvia's face flushed even more.
Even Black Natsu couldn't help but shake his head, just as he was about to say something.
The sound of footsteps behind him drew his attention.
"I never expected that the legendary fire dragon from Fairy Tail would be here."
Hyunaz turned his head and looked at the tall, burly man behind him.
[A guy with a steel mask over his face and a headscarf tied around his head.]
【"Um?"】
Hyunaz frowned in confusion.
"It really is... so easy to get it!"
Simon smiled.
[He suddenly unleashed his magic power.]
A dark purple magic circle unfolded before his eyes.
The next moment, the entire hall was shrouded in darkness.
[Then, BOOM!!!]
A violent explosion followed, the terrifying shockwave startling all the visitors in the underground casino.
The scene descended into chaos.
Meanwhile, on the other side, in the card and board game area.
"Erza! You're finished!!" Mirajane held up several playing cards, a smug smile playing on her lips.
"Oh?" Erza raised an eyebrow.
"Can you really beat the cards I have?"
Lucy held a pile of cards, her face contorted in distress.
"Why does everyone else have such good cards? Am I just here to make up the numbers?"
Mirajane ignored everything and raised the deck of cards in her hand high.
He slammed his fist down onto the table.
"Look at my four twos, who can afford to take them?!"
[Mirajah roared with excitement.]
The playing cards are falling rapidly.
[Smack! It slammed onto the table.]
Before Erza and Lucy could even see clearly...
Another deck of cards landed on the table even faster.
One hand firmly gripped the deck of cards.
"Ladies, your bets are really too boring. How about we bet something else?"
Erza, Mirajane, and Lucy looked up in surprise.
[They looked towards the owner of this hand.]
Golden hair, dark skin.
The man named Hugh smiled slightly: "I've long heard that Fairy Tail members are all incredibly audacious."
"So, how about the new wager: your lives?"
Although Hugh's voice contained a hint of laughter, its tone was incredibly low.
[The very moment he finished speaking.]
A tiny red light began to flicker between Mirajane's eyebrows.
[Woolley, the blocky man, assembled his hands like building blocks to form a sniper rifle, its infrared beam clearly aimed at Mirajane's forehead.]
Meanwhile, beside Erza, the catwoman Miliana approached her silently with light, graceful steps.
The rope in her hand had somehow become a noose around Erza's neck.
It was as if Miliana could kill Erza with a single effort.
Lucy was shocked to see this!
He suddenly stood up from his seat.
[Staring at the three in horror: "What...what are you trying to do?!"]
[Lucy's angry question.]
But Mirajane immediately calmed her down.
She didn't seem frightened by the situation.
[His gaze turned to Hugh with a hint of amusement.]
"Hey, do you even know what you're doing?"
Hugh replied with a confident smile, "Of course I know, miss."
"I've long heard of Fairy Tail's incredible power, so if I'm going to use you as a sacrifice, there's no better choice than you."
"A sacrifice?" Mirajane and Erza exchanged a glance.
"So, you came prepared?" Erza placed the cards face down on the table.
[Then he asked aloud.]
"Of course!" Hugh replied.
"We were originally planning to visit your guild, but unexpectedly, fate smiled upon us. Whether it was Erza, Mirajane, or that guy known as the Fire Dragon, all from your guild..."
"They're all located in this hotel."
"This saves us the trouble of looking for you."
Mirajane couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"What did you disappear to?" Woolley frowned, instantly cocking his gun.
[But Mirajane ignored him completely, instead leaning back leisurely in her seat with her arms crossed.] 820 ["Speaking of which, since you've done your homework, I'm curious, what exactly gave you the courage to attack us?"]
Xiu smiled dismissively.
He spread his hands in a gesture: "Isn't that obvious enough?"
"Even a mage, when targeted and their vital points are exploited, what is there to fear?"
"Besides..."
[He paused here.]
"Besides, it's just magic, isn't it? Anyone can do that!"
As he finished speaking, Xiu snapped his fingers.
【moment!】
Apart from Erza, Mirajane, Lucy, Hugh, and others, all the other tourists present vanished in an instant.
