Chapter 274

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, three months had passed.

The Fairy Tail guild was bustling with activity, and almost all the members of Fairy Tail were gathered in the main hall.

Brother Na Zi, Gray, Elfman, and the others were all looking with excitement at Makarov, who stood on the high platform before them.

"Everyone, the time has finally come!"

"In three days, the Grand Magic Games will begin. I am now announcing the list of participants for this year's Grand Magic Games!"

Upon hearing Makarov's words, the Fairy Tail members below all perked up.

"Following Ye Yu, Erza, Mirajane, Hearing Wendi, Brother Na Zi, Gray!"

When Brother Na Zi and Gray heard Makarov call their names, they both grinned.

Meanwhile, Macao and the others below were incredibly excited.

"The Century Quest team plus Brother Na Zi and Gray—this is incredible!"

"So amazing, we might even win the championship!"

"Following Ye Yu, Erza, good luck!"

Just as everyone was buzzing with excitement, Makarov cleared his throat and continued: "Next, I will announce the list for the second team participating in the Grand Magic Games!"

Hearing this, the corners of Following Ye Yu's mouth curled up, and his face showed an expression of having expected this.

But Macao, Romeo, and the others were incredibly surprised.

After all, they had participated in the Grand Magic Games before, and other guilds only fielded one team.

"A second team?"

"There's another team?"

"Are two teams from the same guild allowed to participate in the Grand Magic Games?"

Hearing the questions from Macao and the others, Makarov said: "I looked at the rules for the Grand Magic Games, and the competition does allow two teams to participate!"

"Having two teams participate at the same time increases our chances of winning the championship!"

"Gildarts, Laxus, Fried, Gajeel, Elfman, Cana!"

After hearing Makarov read the list for the second team, the hall became even more boisterous.

"Gildarts? Gildarts is participating too?"

"Gildarts and Laxus—this is truly amazing!"

"With Team Following Ye Yu and Team Gildarts, the championship of the Games belongs to our guild!"

Macao and Wakaba were excited to the extreme.

At this moment, they seemed to have already envisioned the scene of winning the championship.

Hum, hum!

While everyone was excited, Following Ye Yu, Erza, Mirajane, Hearing Wendi, Brother Na Zi, and Gray stood facing the other team of Gildarts, Laxus, Fried, Gajeel, Elfman, and Cana from across the room.

At this moment, the temperature of the surrounding air seemed to have a tendency to rise.

"Gi-hee, Following Ye Yu, Fire Dragon, we aren't teammates, but opponents. Let's see which team can win the championship!"

Gajeel stared at Following Ye Yu and Brother Na Zi's group, grinning with excitement.

"That's perfect, but either way, our team will definitely be the one to win!"

Brother Na Zi clenched his fist and said with immense excitement.

"No, our team will definitely win. If I run into you on the field, I won't hold back!"

"Same here!"

As they spoke, Brother Na Zi and Gajeel's forms kept getting closer until their heads bumped together.

Seeing that the competition hadn't even started yet and the two teams were already competing, Wakaba said with a worried expression: "I didn't expect things to turn out like this!"

After all, they had previously thought that Team Following Ye Yu and Team Gildarts would be able to cooperate with each other.

But they didn't expect that before the competition even began, their own two teams had already started...

However, Macao was more open-minded: "This is what a Fairy Tail team is like. No matter which of the two teams wins the championship, it's a Fairy Tail championship!"

"Now that you put it that way, it seems that's the case!"

While everyone was discussing, Following Ye Yu looked at Gildarts opposite him and said: "Gildarts, I didn't expect you to participate in these Grand Magic Games!"

In Following Ye Yu's memory, Gildarts had not participated in this Grand Magic Games.

But right now, Gildarts was participating.

Following Ye Yu was naturally a bit curious.

"This, that, ah, hahaha..."

Hearing Following Ye Yu's question, Gildarts gave a vague answer and then leaned toward Cana: "Cana-chan..."

Although Gildarts didn't say anything, seeing this scene, Following Ye Yu knew what was going on.

"Have father and daughter already recognized each other?"
