wouldn't, realistically speaking, Meredy just get caught in ice lock if she did that or Invel could just kill her as soon as she shows up. besides Invel can counter gray's IDeS, juvia is weak to ice magic and meredy is weak AF and he is still far stronger so them getting free doesn't really change any thing (unless jellal, laxus, natsu or gildarts intervenes as they're the only 4 guys who could go 1 on 1 with one of the weaker 10 (well 7) shields)
