Ultear smiled confidently: "What's there to fear? Everyone drinks together, and the last one standing wins."
Jellal looked horrified: "I think I'll pass."
What kind of perverted game is this? A huge crowd of people running naked through the streets—the thought alone was terrifying.
Ultear said disdainfully, "We girls aren't afraid, so what are you, a big man, afraid of? How about we change the rules: the girls will have the drinking contest, and the boys of the losing guild have to run back naked."
Cana showed an excited expression: "It's a deal!"
She spent twenty-four hours a day soaked in wine barrels; she didn't believe anyone could outdrink her!
Mirajane gave a sweet smile: "No problem!"
All the girls agreed. If they lost, it wouldn't be them losing face anyway.
The boys were a bit unhappy. We haven't even agreed yet.
The female members of Lamia Scale also came over: "Count us in."
Several more guilds joined in. Only one guild could win; the boys of the losing guilds would have to run back naked.
The members of Fairy Tail had confidence in Cana. This girl could take down everyone by herself, so they agreed without hesitation.
Thus, the atmosphere of the entire venue instantly surged. All the girls cheered excitedly and raised their glasses together: "Cheers!"
Meanwhile, Wendy, Sherria, Meredy, Lucy, and Levy—the younger girls—drank one bottle and immediately started acting drunk and rowdy, so they were tied up with a rope.
However, most of the other girls didn't have much tolerance and soon passed out. It mainly came down to Cana.
The human wine barrel, Cana, took the lead, hoisting the largest barrel and chugging it down. Yet her small belly remained flat; nobody knew where all that wine was going.
"Cana, keep drinking! Ultear is about to cave!"
"Irene actually has such a high tolerance too? Quick, bring her another barrel!"
"Jenny, our Blue Pegasus is counting on you!!!"
Everyone cheered as barrel after barrel of wine was brought over. Women competing in drinking had a charm of its own.
"Ultear, you better be reliable!"
Jellal's heart was breaking as he watched Ultear swaying unsteadily.
He was once a member of the Magic Council, a respectable man. His lifelong reputation was about to be ruined by this woman.
Time passed minute by minute, and the girls collapsed one after another. To everyone's surprise, the final winner was Ultear!
Jellal's face was practically splitting from his wide grin. He never dreamed that Ultear would actually win.
The members of Fairy Tail looked panicked. This girl could drink so much that she even outdrank Cana?
Gajeel said in disbelief, "You cheated, didn't you? It looked like you were about to pass out earlier, yet you managed to hold on until now?"
Laxus questioned, "She definitely cheated. I'll drink with you; if I lose, I'll take off my clothes right now!"
Jellal immediately retorted, "On what grounds? We won. Is Fairy Tail trying to back out of the bet?"
These bastards were refusing to admit it. Regardless of whether Ultear used a trick, they were the winners.
"Accept your loss. If you're not satisfied, we can compete again next time!"
Ultear immediately refused. Of course she had cheated. With her Arc of Time magic, all the wine she drank had been sent to a future time. If these people had been on guard against her, she would have likely exposed a flaw.
Gray agreed, saying, "Since we didn't catch her, then she didn't. Accept the loss."
Everyone glanced at him, only to see that this pervert's underwear was already nowhere to be found. He had no sense of shame whatsoever.
"I'm in too!"
Natsu's competitive spirit was ignited. He immediately stripped off his clothes, threw them to Happy, and then chased after the bare-bottomed Gray.
"What's there to argue about? Are these two idiots?"
Everyone was speechless, then they began to strip. Anyway, the girls were all drunk, and since someone had taken the lead, they could just run out while covering their faces. Who would know who was who?
"Run!!!"
With a shout, a dense crowd of people charged out of the palace at top speed. Even the guards were left staring in dazed confusion.
"Do big shots nowadays really play this wildly?"
