Lucy's sudden and confident surrender made Gajeel, who was all coiled up and ready to strike, stumble mid-stride. He had already settled into his battle stance, gearing up to launch his own attack, only for Lucy to abruptly throw both her hands up in surrender.
Gajeel froze for a moment, then frowned, a hint of dissatisfaction coloring his tone. "What kind of game are you playing?"
Lucy shrugged, her tone light and breezy. "I don't have any suitable Celestial Spirit Keys left to fight with. Rather than getting hurt and surrendering later, I might as well raise the white flag right now."
