The magic merchant who mingled with Fairy Tail

Chapter 636 Daily-Christmas Carnival (5) Winter Swimming

Magnolia is close to the sea, so almost every major event has a swimming competition.

It’s just that this time it’s a Christmas carnival held by the town itself. It’s not a performance and it’s not a regular kingdom competition. In this cold weather, there are only a handful of people willing to go into the water and suffer, so there are only a few contestants and spectators. Not much.

Winter swimming requires contestants to have a strong physique. In this regard, women are inherently at a disadvantage compared to men. Furthermore, women who can swim in this kind of weather must not be wizards or adventurers whose physical fitness is far beyond ordinary people. The characters, otherwise, are all big-bodied, thick-set, ferocious-faced, and full of evil flesh.

Since there are no beauties in swimsuits to attract sex fans, one can imagine the popularity of this winter swimming competition.

Fortunately, the organizers are not fools. When planning the carnival, they specially arranged the winter swimming activity among the most popular game events. Even if you are just passing by, it can bring a lot of popularity to the place.

Kira passed by the winter swimming competition area, where there were also acquaintances from the guild.

Laxus, the Thunder Gods and their outside staff Elfman, the young couple Gajeel and Lebby and their cats, and the other two members of the lane engine team.

Participating in the competition are three strong men, Laxus, Elfman and Gajeel, two purely supporting characters, Salusuke and Dorair, and a few unknown supporting characters. As for the Thunder Gods and Lebby, They did not enter the water, but were in the stands responsible for cheering and enlivening the atmosphere.

Of course, from Kira's point of view, they were not the only ones who enlivened the atmosphere, but also Salusuk and Doleir on the field. After all, anyone with a discerning eye could see that it was impossible for them to go up and completely humiliate themselves.

"Strange...when did these two people become so brave? Do they dare to go into the water in this weather?"

Kira moved closer to Lebby, trying to get some answers from her, but Lebby just gave Kira an awkward forced smile and hesitated to speak.

At this moment, several trembling exchanges blew in the direction of the wind.

"Just winter swimming is no big deal!! We want Lebby to see our powerful physiques!!"

"That's right!! We can't let that iron bastard steal the spotlight!!"

"Let's show off, Gajeel!!" × 2

"Not interested in."

Oh, it turns out they were jealous, so that’s not surprising.

Abby Green covered half of her face with a fan and stood on the other side of Lebby, teasing and joking: "Oh, Lebby is so charming! She obviously just has the figure of a child..."

The weak and pitiful Lebby couldn't bear this kind of anger. Her face immediately turned red and her chest rose and fell slightly: a figure like a child's? ! Who do you look down on? In terms of emotional experience, I have much more experience than you!

Of course, Lebby would not say this kind of thing, even if she simply expressed similar emotions, because it would not fit her personality.

With her peripheral vision, Lebby secretly glanced at the big sister next to her who lowered her head and couldn't see her toes.

It is true that the other party is much better than me in terms of figure, and is a first-class seductive woman, but I am smarter, more knowledgeable, and younger, and there is still room for improvement, all of which are incomparable to the other party.

Wait until I grow up and see if I don't mock you back!

At this time, Lebby subconsciously ignored that Abby Green was only less than three years older than herself, but silently ignited in her heart a saying that has become popular in Magnolia in recent years:

A is tied for three years, D is a draw for three years, don’t bully a girl to be tied!

Just wait, Abbage!

In three years, I will definitely be able to grow to a height that is beyond your reach!

At this time Lili in Lebby's arms: What's wrong with Lebby? Are you too worried about Gajeel? But there’s no need to put in so much effort, right? It hurts...

A woman's intuition allowed Aba Green to feel a strong will not to admit defeat from Lebby, but she did not say anything. She just raised her eyebrows slightly, curled the corner of her mouth, and once again compared the gap between the fabrics on her body and hers. …

hehe! What a huge difference!

Leibi-chan is already eighteen years old, right? How pitiful... How about comforting her so that this little sister won't be able to sleep well tonight.

Abba Green suddenly felt her conscience and began to feel that she had gone too far just now, so she changed the subject: "Actually, Lebby-chan, you don't have to be too anxious. After all, some men just like you..."

"It's so cute even though it's small..."

snort! You were laughing at me just now, now you are saying this!

Even small things are cute... That's what only someone like you, who doesn't have such anxiety, can say in such a relaxed tone!

But Lebby is still kind. She noticed the intention to apologize in the other party's tone, and somehow the depression in her chest disappeared. She also expressed her self-cpu like "Compared to her, I am really small, and she is right to say that." , silently lowered his head.

No, no, no...what on earth am I thinking? Now is not the time to think about this!

The girl once again focused her attention on the field, or to be precise, on Gajeel.

In order to make it easier to get into the water, the men among the contestants only wore a pair of large pants, and the women only wore three-point pants, with no hair after that, so all the people on the shore were shirtless.

To be honest, the most suitable person to participate in this competition is Gray. His cold tolerance is obviously the best in the guild, and he likes to take off his clothes and run around naked from time to time. I don't know why he doesn't come to participate in the winter swimming competition.

On the other hand, the person who surprised Kira the most was Laxus. It was hard for him to imagine that Laxus would one day become a man who showed off his muscles like Elfman.

"Why would Laxus participate in such a competition?"

Abby Green explained: "Laxus has been practicing with senior Serena recently. According to what that senior said, the human body can quickly become stronger when practiced in a harsh environment, so Laxus..."

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu Having the courage to face the training method of winter swimming, Laxus, you are truly worthy of being the man I follow!"

Philide was so moved that he clenched his fists and looked at Laxus in the field with tears, "It doesn't matter, as long as I'm here, Laxus will never fall in the face of this kind of weather!"

"Are you here??"

Kira's eyes suddenly widened, and her thoughts were released at the same time... Could this be that kind of bond? ?

"I've prepared hot soup to ward off the cold!"

Oh, so that's it... I was so excited for nothing!

"By the way...Serena's teaching method? Is that really normal?"

Kira seriously doubted that Serena meant to let Laxus "put aside his shame, burn his soul, and do something that ordinary people, even people with very low limits, can't do. That would probably It can be considered as becoming stronger..."

Apart from anything else, Kira felt it was irritating to see Laxus in the audience with his serious face and his explosive muscles doing warm-up exercises in front of the water.

Serena had no problem doing these moves, and the opponent was originally in the late middle and late middle school years; Elfman had no problem doing them, since he usually does this in the guild anyway; Gajeel had no problem doing them, but he had a passionate and romantic look. I feel like there will be no problem with Salusuk and Dorel. They are both good at acting and good at playing negative roles to set off the protagonists. It would be great if they act according to their true colors in every move! But Laxus...

"I have to record it. This will be his dark history in the future!"

He took out the magic crystal of influence from his arms with his backhand and pointed it at Laxus, who was doing warm-up exercises with a serious face. Under Kira's control, the crystal of influence quickly recorded the opponent's stupid behavior without missing a single move.

"You really have a bad taste..."

"Bad taste? No! I'm helping them retain their youth!"

On the shore, several contestants finished their warm-up exercises, and their bodies warmed up a lot as their energy and blood surged.

"Damn it! Why do I have to come here to swim in the winter in a place like this... deep in the mountains?! That middle school uncle just wants to see my joke!"

"Kikiki...can you give me some advice from Uncle Eight Dragons? Let me, Uncle Gajeel, give it a try too!"

“A man should swim in the winter!!”

"We need to show our most heroic side to Lebby!!"

"As long as I beat Gajeel, I will confess my love to Lebi again!!"

The game started, and five big men entered the water at the same time.

Because Kira was holding a telescope in her hand, she could clearly see that the hair on their bodies stood on end, their teeth were chattering, and their hands and feet were cold when they entered the water. They must have felt uncomfortable.

"Come on, Laxus!!"

"Don't lose, Gajeel!!"

Felid cheered for Laxus as if no one else was around, Lebby cheered for Gajeel with a red face, and Abby Green didn't shout "Come on Elfman" because Laxus was there, but the two His eyes were still looking straight at the strong man in the water.

Sometimes, not shouting is also a form of solidarity.

So the game was completed with only Salusuk and Dorel having no one to support them.

"How pitiful..."

Looking at the two people struggling to swim forward in the water, Kira could only sigh silently that emotional matters really can't be forced.

This race is a three-hundred-meter round trip. For this group of people who have lived by the sea since childhood, it is a piece of cake. That means the preparation time is a bit long, and the official race time is only a few minutes.

The competition in the water is not as easy to use magic as other amusement facilities, and the few people participating are not people like Erza and Natsu who can destroy everything in comparison, so it went smoothly and ended quickly. .

Dang, Dang, Dang! ! !

"competition is over!"

"The winner of this Christmas Carnival winter swimming competition: Laxus Dolea!"

"runner up:……"

Although he clearly won the championship, Laxus showed no joy at all on his face. Instead, he frowned and touched the center of his chest. There seemed to be a faint hint of worry in his eyes. He didn't know what he was thinking...

Kira had a clear view of everything, and his intuition told him that Laxus was going to cheat again!
