This Was An Brilliant Chapter For Me!! The emotions, the secrets, the intensity and the sorrow ending....

Irene, I can honestly say, you are the STRONGEST female character in all of Fairy Tail, unlike in the past when an enemy is faced with Erza determination they went down, but Irene withstood it and was still standing. Irene is the first real opponent Erza has ever had, that she couldn't really beat.
