Fans expected that the manga series "Fairy Tail" will set up a great confrontation for Erza. However, the next chapter is looking to be having a double battle royale, as it hints of simultaneous fights between Erza and Eileen, as well as Rakheid and Kagura.

Last week's chapter revealed that Rakheid, said to be the son of Zeref, can manipulate pleasure. He then proceeded to copy Makarov's Fairy Law magic to some extent, as his "attack" reached almost all of Fairy Tail's members. However, Zeref asked Rakheid to stop his magic, seeing as Rakheid's power is indiscriminate; it also has an effect on Zeref's own army, not to mention Zeref himself.

Meanwhile, just as Rakheid is out to eliminate Sorano and Yukino, Kagura intervened, setting up the stage for the swordswoman to fight against one of the Spriggan 12.

The fight between Kagura and Rakheid is said to be featured in the upcoming "Fairy Tail" chapter 509, as a simultaneous battle with the fight of Erza and Eileen. Previous chapters have already confirmed that Eileen is quite interested in Erza, and she wants to finish her herself. When they have finally met on the battlefield, everyone has seen the uncanny resemblance between the two, to which Eileen replied that they are one and the same. It is unclear how the two are related.

The fights for chapter 509 are looking to be the most engaging of the battle since Erza and Kagura are said to be two of the strongest sword-wielding mages in the series. Meanwhile, Eileen is considered to be the greatest magician in Zeref's army, while Rakheid is also said to be one of the top fighters in the Spriggan 12. The fights are expected to be fierce, particularly in Erza's case, as she is likely to think of revenge because of Makarov's passing.

"Fairy Tail" chapter 509 is scheduled to come out early next week.
