The capital of the Fiore Kingdom.
Inside Huateng Palace, Mercurius.
"You mean the Magicians of the Fairy Tail Guild, after arriving in my Royal Capital, did not destroy my town! Instead, to everyone's surprise, they abided by the rules of our Royal Capital and orderly proceeded to the Frau Dome on the western mountain to register for this year's Magic Fighting Tournament?!"
Old Toma sat on his throne, his brow furrowed as he listened to his soldier's words.
If the Fairy Tail Guild, those Magicians who caused trouble all day, came to the Royal Capital in full force with the sole purpose of participating in this year's Magic Fighting Tournament to win first place and that pitifully small prize money, Old Toma would not believe it for a million reasons.
"I must confirm it myself."
Old Toma said, standing up from his throne.
"Eh?!"
The kingdom's soldier looked shocked upon hearing this.
"Are you saying?!"
"Your Majesty, the King, you are going to the arena yourself?"
"No! Absolutely not! Not even if you kill me…"
The soldier looked at the King in disbelief, a premonition of ill omen rising in his heart.
"Hehe, you must keep my secret, Pumpkin!"
"From now on, you will call me Tom."
"And this is not a notification, but an order."
Old Toma said, using Re-quip Magic to change into a Pumpkin costume used for circus performances. With a hint of curiosity in his eyes, he planned to go incognito and observe up close…
What kind of existence this Magic Guild Fairy Tail, which was seen as a thorn in the side by countless top forces on the Ishgar continent, truly was.
Incidentally, although Old Toma was the King of the Fiore Kingdom…
Besides his identity as King, he was also a powerful Magician.
It is said that in his youth, he once possessed strength not inferior to an S-Class Mage of a Light Magic Guild, so Re-quip Magic was something he could do with ease.
At the same time, on the mountain west of the Royal Capital, next to the Frau Dome, at the Magic Fighting Tournament registration desk.
A group of Magicians from the Fairy Tail Guild were gathered here, each registering.
The current Magic Fighting Tournament…
Was not the Grand Magic Games of later generations, which were based on Magic Guilds.
Currently, the main purpose of the Fiore Kingdom's royalty holding the Magic Fighting Tournament was to strengthen the security of the Royal Palace and find powerful court Magicians and knights. Therefore, registration was on an individual basis, and the registration fee was 10,000 J each time.
"After registering, you will be immediately arranged for a match. The winner will directly advance and receive generous prize money, while the loser loses everything and is immediately eliminated! If a loser is not convinced and wishes to continue participating, they must re-register and pay the fee."
The staff at the registration desk was routinely explaining the well-known rules. She did not believe that anyone would come to participate in the competition without even understanding the rules of Magic Fighting.
"10,000 J!"
Originally, after discovering that the Magic Fighting Tournament was on an individual basis, many Magicians from the Fairy Tail Guild who had intended to register and try their luck found it difficult. For them, 10,000 J was also a huge sum.
