"Dance Queen? Erza actually has that title?"
Seeing Erza's confident expression, Lucy gasped in disbelief.
"Yes, people who dance with Erza feel very relaxed, both physically and mentally."
Mira, dressed casually, strolled over, smiling as she looked at Erza, who had changed into a light blue dress, and tempted her, "Lucy, why don't you give it a try?"
"Um, well, I think I'll wait and see."
Lucy noticed that her friends' expressions were off.
"Haha—"
Levy's unnatural smile further confirmed this.
As they were talking, Erza extended her hand, gracefully inviting Natsu, "Come on, Natsu!"
"Huh? Me? How about we let Gray do it? He's better at this."
Natsu instinctively reached out to push his best friend aside, but ended up pushing someone away in vain.
Gray had already run more than ten meters away and was sitting shirtless chatting with Marcus, who was playing in the sand!
"That bastard? When?!" Natsu exclaimed in surprise.
"Alright, Natsu, stop rambling. What dance needs most is momentum!"
Without giving Natsu a chance to refuse, Erza grabbed him and pulled him over, and then...
Natsu transformed into a human-shaped spinning top, which Erza spun rapidly in her hands with ease.
"Ugh, this is disgusting! Ugh, I'm going to faint, Erza! I'm going to faint!"
After a few moves, even someone as strong as Natsu had his eyes turn into dizzying vortexes. He staggered a couple of steps before collapsing to the ground with a thud.
Lucy, who witnessed the whole process, was stunned: "This is what you meant by feeling relaxed, both physically and mentally, Mira!"
"Oh my, Natsu looks pretty relaxed right now," Mira laughed.
Lucy snapped back to reality and looked at her smiling white-haired sister beside her again. She instinctively hugged her chest and shrank back next to Levy, becoming somewhat wary.
To some extent, staying near Mila seems quite dangerous.
"Natsu is so weak! Is this all the courage you have as a man?!"
Elfman approached Natsu, his resolute face filled with disdain.
He doesn't seem to realize the seriousness of the problem.
"Well said, Elfman."
Erza nodded emphatically in agreement, then reached out and grabbed his shoulder, saying seriously, "So you're next!"
"Wait, wait, I—"
Just as Elfman was about to speak, the surrounding scenery suddenly began to spin rapidly.
The figures of my companions flashed by, followed by a dizzying spin.
"Ugh!! Manly! Ugh! Manly is disgusting!"
As the most manly man in Fairy Tail, he held on for three seconds longer than Natsu before swaying and collapsing.
"Is this all the kind of aura you have? You really disappoint me!"
After letting out a deep sigh, Erza raised her eyes and began searching for her next victim—no, her next dance partner.
However, after seeing Natsu and Elfman's miserable state, the other men dared not remain indifferent and immediately gathered their partners to start a full-knee dance.
Those with girlfriends look for girlfriends, those without girlfriends look for nearby female drunks, and if they really can't find any, they add another man to the group. Some even use painting magic to create a female companion out of thin air. The previously noisy atmosphere suddenly becomes more elegant.
In the distance, on a large tree far from the banquet center.
"A dance party? Hahaha, that looks pretty interesting."
Chess, holding a large beer mug, glanced at Mister Gang beside him and asked, "Aren't you going to have some fun?"

"No interest, that kind of atmosphere doesn't suit me."
Mister Gang's calm eyes reflected the firelight of the banquet. "You bastard—" Chase shook his head with a smile, not bothering to persuade him further.
Asking the aloof and handsome Mystogan to perform that kind of dance that moves like a storm is probably more difficult than defeating Acnologia!
"Then I won't keep you company."
After finishing his drink with Mister Gang, Chase jumped down from the tree trunk and enthusiastically joined in.
"I'm telling you, you're all so lame! What's there to panic about dancing with Erza? Just apply a turning force of the same speed in the opposite direction, and you can break her dance!"
"Oh my god! It's Chase! He's going to challenge Erza!"
"This is going to be interesting, shall we open a betting pool?"
"Go, Chase! Let's win back our manly pride!"
"Damn it! How long are you going to keep touching my waist? Erza already has a rival!"
"Hey Lucy, who are you betting on to win?"
With Chase's entrance, the strange and awkward atmosphere instantly became incredibly lively.
Up in the tree, Mistgang slowly put down the wooden wine cup in his hand and raised his hand to tug at the black veil covering his face.
"Just being here on the sidelines like this is enough."
Watching Chase spinning rapidly and howling in Erza's hands, a rare smile appeared on his lips as he murmured, "Thanks, Chase."
Meanwhile, in another adjacent area.
Compared to the incredibly lively scene at Fairy Tail, Phantom Strikes back home was eerily quiet.
The victor is king and the loser is a bandit. Joseph had already foreseen his fate and secluded himself in a dark tent.
The battle with Fairy Tail made him realize the fundamental difference between the two guilds, despite his pride and arrogance.
The image of Chase summoning the entire guild with a single card became a lingering shadow in his mind.
Magic originates from the power of the heart and will.
It is conceivable that Joseph, who was broken and withdrawn, would not achieve anything in the future and was destined to spend the rest of his life in prison.
As for the other members of Phantom Lord, they lay on the isolation wall, looking at the cheerful Fairy Tail territory with envy, resentment, or disappointment.
Leading them are Gajeel and the four elements.
"A scene I've never seen before. I never knew a guild like this, so close to home, really existed in the world. I long for it, I really long for it..."
Aria's eyes were still filled with tears, but she had a new catchphrase.
"No, no, no! I'm so unwilling, so unwilling! This gentlemanly celebratory dance should have been performed by us!"
Thor gritted his teeth, his body writhing wildly like a maggot.
"So, this is the real reason we lost to them?"
Rabbit Maru sighed softly, seemingly having already made a decision about the future in her heart.
"Such a powerful man actually showed such a disgraceful side in front of that group of weaklings."
Gajeel stared blankly at Chess, who had been defeated by Erza, his eyes flickering. "Just what kind of guild is Fairy Tail—"
As for Juvia—
With her eyes turning into pink hearts, all her attention naturally focused on a certain naked man.
"Ahhh~ Juvia, Juvia really wants to take off her clothes and dance with Lord Gray too~"
