Chapter 518 of "Fairy Tail" continues with the battle between Erza and her mother Irene. The chapter, with a title "Master Enchant", starts with Erza promising Wendy, who has become unconscious that she'll quickly finish the fight with Irene. Erza continues to dodge her mother's enchantments, while Irene is furious and asks why her daughter continues to hinder her happiness.

Erza then says that she actually understands Irene's misfortunes, given her years of being a slave to a cult. She says her years of being abandoned cannot compare to the four hundred years of Irene suffering, as she has also found a family and conquered her obstacles.

Irene becomes even more furious, wishing her daughter had never existed. She assumes her true Dragon form and fights Erza, which results in the latter breaking both legs and her left arm. Given Irene's amplified enchantments, she then summons an asteroid to crash down to the battlefield.

Erza realizes that everyone will die when the crashes and proceeds to go to the meteor to stop it. Explaining that being called the Queen of Fairies holds new meaning as her mother is the Queen of Dragons, Erza goes on to shout that a queen is someone who protects, and she vows to protect those she loves even until death. The chapter ends with Irene shocked at her daughter's actions, wondering what kind of person she was.

Tripped Media says that the last panel could serve as a spoiler for chapter 519 of "Fairy Tail." Irene's thoughts could lead to a change of heart, and that she will stop the asteroid herself. Erza dying in the manga is impossible, the site says, as she is one of the main characters.

Fans will also be pleased to know that according to Comicbook , a new "Fairy Tail" novel is coming, with a title "Fairy Tail in Wonderland." This, along with the announced film later this year is surely a treat for all fans of the Hiro Mashima franchise.
