Chapter 890 - Hidden 1 (1/2)
Everyone cheered for their favorite team loudly.
The people who supported Fairy Tail might not be much, but their spirit wouldn't be lost on anyone.
Marvis was looking at Haru and Haru also happened to look at Marvis.
”...”
Both of them stared at each other for a while before Haru waved and smiled at Marvis, but he didn't do it too long then talked to his team.
”....”
Marvis blinked her eyes and was startled.
”1st Master, what's wrong?” Makarov asked.
”That guy can see me,” Marvis said.
”What?!”
Everyone was startled and looked at Haru in shock. They knew that only the member of ”Fairy Tail” was able to see Marvis, but Marvis told them that Haru could see her.
Makarov frowned, but he was confident he would win this tournament. Even though his best friend had shocked him by sending out three teams directly to the tournament, his guild was the strongest.

”Now, we've seen all of the team! And now... The moment that you've been waiting for!!” Chapati said.
Suddenly in the middle of the stadium, there was a large stone board which appeared showing the event which would start at the ”Grand Magic Games”.
”It's time to announce how this year's games will work!! First, I'll explain the contests. Teams will be ranked from first to eighth place, based on their performance. Points will be given to each team based on their rank. The teams will be allowed to choose one member to participate.
Then after the contest, let me explain the battles. The sponsors will pick competitors against each other based on factors such as an audience vote. The battle rules are simple. Each team will fight each other. The winning team will be awarded ten points, and the losing team will get zero. In the case of a draw, both teams will receive five points.
And now for the opening contest! Prepare for The Hidden! Choose one player from each team and we will explain the rules once all of the participants have come forward!” Chapati said.

”I'll go first,” Tabane said while jumping excitedly.
”Go for it,” Haru said.
”Alright! Tabane-chan is going to work hard!” Tabane said cutely and took off her dress changing into her usual clothes. She smiled and said, ”It's easier to move like this.”
Gintoki, Haru, Shinobu, and Esdeath said few words to Tabane and told her to be careful.
”Hehehe, in this game, I'm the winner,” Tabane said with a smile.
”...”
They weren't sure what this girl was planning, but all of them knew what kind of game that was about to start.

Kuroneko looked at Haru's team and said, ”They're going to send Tabane, who are we going to send?”
”How about me?” Korosensei asked.
”....”
”Korosensei, are you going?” Luffy asked. He knew the event was about to happen and didn't have that much interest in this game.
”Yes, I'll start right away, is that alright?” Korosensei asked.
”Go for it. You can win this game easily,” Kouha said.
Teppei nodded and said, ”I don't think anyone can defeat you in this game.”
”Yes, but be careful of Tabane-chan. That woman is the most genius human in her world,” Kuroneko said.
”Nyuhuhuhu, don't worry. I'll win this,” Korosensei said and took a step forward.
---
Sting, Rogue, Rufus, Orga, and Yukino gathered together discussing who they would send out.
”Who is going to go?” Yukino asked.
”I'll go first. I'll be the entree of the event,” Rufus said.
Orga looked at the direction of Haru's team and Kuroneko's team. He felt complicated and said, ”It's not Esdeath-san. You're lucky.”
”...”
Everyone nodded and they knew very well how sadistic Esdeath was, but they had to admit that she was very suitable to become Haru's wife.
”Be careful of Korosensei, you know his speed,” Rogue said.
”.....”
Rufus took a deep breath and nodded. ”I'll be careful.” However, he was thinking quickly about what to do with Korosensei since that speed was cheating.

”Will all the participants for The Hidden step forward!” Mato said.
Mermaid Heel sent out Beth; Blue Pegasus sent out Eve; Infinite Team B sent out Tabane; Infinite Team C sent out Rufus; Infinite Team A sent out Korosensei; Lamia Scale sent out Lyon; Fairy Tail Team B sent out Juvia; Fairy Tail Team A sent out Gray.
Eight people walked toward the center of the stadium and waited for the announcement of the event.
Gray looked at Korosensei and asked, ”What are you?”
”Me?” Korosensei pointed his tentacle at himself.
”Yes, are you not a human?” Gray asked and felt quite unsure whether Korosensei was a squid or an octopus.
Korosensei shook his head and said, ”No, I'm a human.”
”Then, why is your shape like an octopus?” Juvia asked.
”Because I'm cursed.....” Korosensei said sadly.
