Sorry, guys, I meant Devil Slayers. Mashima added a new element to Devil Slayers out of nowhere. Unless that darkness stuff was there before. Anybody knows?



It's not an element. Its kind of like related to Zeref since 'darkness' is the roots of Black Arts from which demons are made and considering DeS magic is made to kill demons, it's not surprising.



Urgh, I'm not good at explaining these plot lines >.> @Isterio is - would you mind explaining? :3



Sorry, 'element' was a figure of speech. I meant the whole being a Devil Slayer slowly consuming your heart to darkness the more you use it. I don't think I've seen that before now.

This chapter was awesome. But the next chapter will end very horrible. I hope nobody dies.

I swear to god I hope this is where Gray and Juvia FINALLY get together.

@ixarising:That still doesn't  equal Natsu is immortal though.  



True, he could just use mind control on Gray to be safe, as he seems to be doing, something Gray should not be able to get out of. To be even safer, he could use mind control on Natsu as well, if possible. But I don't see why the Spriggans would not work together in these actions. Obviously, if Gray suddenly nakama's through the mind control, it would help Invel to have another Spriggan ready to back him up so that Gray has essentially 0 chance of winning still.

So Mashima adds a new element to Devil Slayers out of nowhere. Wonder if it was planned or inspired by a recent video game he just played (which would explain the late release).



And here comes Plot Device Brandish randomly coming in to set up obvious Gray X Juvia moment.

Dirty tricks is all they got. But Fairy Tail can overcome this! Don't kill yourself, Juvia!

This is going interesting, from this event of battle, hope they'll deepen their relationship :D

                        ----------------------------------------

                        Gray vs Invel going about as expected. Well Gray seems to be playing with fire(heh) using dark demonic power. Wasn't expecting giant Brandish to swoop in and take Natsu, Lucy and Happy away, but it makes sense as they're sorta in the way. XD Very cruel move by Invel at the end there, forcing Gray and Juvia against each other. Don't see either dying here though, no matter how dramatic Mashima makes it. But...we'll see...
