Erza resolves the fight between Natsu and Gray, who return to normal and reunite with Lucy and Juvia before passing out. When Irene attacks the group, Erza and Wendy battle her to allow their friends' escape. Meanwhile, Larcade, who identifies himself as Zeref's son and Natsu's resentful nephew, casts a spell that arouses several people across the battlefield with a nearly fatal overload of pleasure. Kagura saves Yukino from Larcade and resists his spell by biting her own tongue, but Larcade quickly defeats her. After single-handedly defeating Crime Sorcière, August speculates that the only one who can stop Zeref's son is Mavis, the child's mother.
