Finally some kind of development. This arc has just been snailing through. Also. I think this voice has something to do with either igneous or Atlas Flame. Though I doubt Igneel mostly because Gray and Wendy have never met him (That could also be the same for Atlas Flame though, I can't really remember if they met or not >_<, but they were at least at the same place and the same time).

With that little statement from Natsu the possibility of Flare joining is growing. Even though its cliche, I wouldn't mind it. I like Flare.

I would also like to mention this is probably one of the only chapters so far in this arc that doesn't have outright fan service. So there's that. Not that I've noticed any, anyway.

The fight between Natsu and the bird was nothing new. And Gray's ability to channel the ice seems awfully convenient, but whatever ~_~;.

Overall, I'd this chapter a 6.5/10. Finally some development (And Flare hiding behind Lucy was amusing.). Let's just hope the next few chapters aren't as slow. Saying that now I've probably jinxed it.
